WHAT THEY SAY.
The French Journals Express Their
Opinions of the Dukes Sentence.

PARIS, Feb. l3.-The republican journals ap-
prove the sentence of two years imprisonment
imposed on the duke Of Orleans yesterday and
say that the manifestation made by the OrIean-
lists precludes a possibility of pardon for the
duke or a reduction in his sentence.
The Journal des Debats says it hopes the gov
ernment will not allow the provocatlon of the
royalists to prevent its extending clemency to
the young duke. The royaIist papers refer to
the noble feelings that inspired the duke to
offer his services as a common soldier, and de-
clare that in view of his patriotic motives the
sentence imposed on him is monstrous.
The Sottet says the law of exile is unjust and
the country will declare that it ought not to
exist.
The Figaro announces that the law has been
applied moderately in the case Of the duke,
but expresses the hope that public opinion will
insist upon the prisoner being pardoned.
The Presse declares its belief that the duke
must be pardoned.

Stanley's Goddess.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S-Henry NJ. Stanley, in Q
letter to Col Thomas W. knowles of the city,
after acknowledging the warm greetings which
he is receiving from this side of the Atlantic,
says; Africa Is not a land to cause one TO for
get his friends, but rather EN- mphasizes whatever
happy impressions and memories of Europe we
may nave. She Is exacting. but not unkind.
You See 1 speak OF Africa as a goddess. Size
lntlmates very clearly that what she has In
store for her voyagers is not TO be compared
with our rich, cultivated sister, Europe; there
lore shall be enabled to hold my friends near
my heart OF course the nrst thing to do is to
nhlsh the report for our almost completed
work and this will keep me some months in
Europe; then L shall think of seeking my
friends. That will be a rare pleasure"

SUGAR PERPLEXES THEM,
The Ways and Means Committee Have
Knotty Problem to Deal With.

The majority of the ways and means COM
mittee hope to get their tariff bill into the
House by the LIST of March, but it is probable
that they will not have it ready 80 soon. They
are finding some difficulty in fixing upon any
place where the cut of duty can
be made. From present indications
it seems not likely that there will
be any reduction of customs duty except on
sugar, and that, on the contrary, in many cases
there may be increases. Where irregularities
and inconsistencies exist, it is likely that cor
rection will be made by increasing duties on
articles at present Disseminated against The
only material reduction of revenue that there
seems to be any agreement upon is on tobacco
and whisky used in the arts.
The sugar question is giving them consider
able trouble. The proposition to take off a
considerable per cent of the duty and make up
the difference to the producers by a bountv
does not meet with the approval of the sugar
men, and it is possible that the clause will be
stricken out of the bill in the House.
or that it may finally defeat the whole measure
There are understood to be ten republicans in
the House who will vote against any consider
able reduction of the sugar trust, and six of
them declare that they will vote against the
entire bill il that clause is retained when the
question comes to be finally voted on in the
House. This opposition in their own party
perplexes the majority of the committee in
making up their bill
