John completed the tenth circuit the

rose of Sharon and the lily of the val

Tazetta, which likewise grows in Pales-
tine, having previously been considered
the Biblical flower This gentleman, ac-
cording to the Edinburgh Review Of
1886, while travelling in the year 1859
from Jaffa to Ranleh, came upon a place
where considerable expanse of ground
was half covered with brilliant red
flowers. At the sight Of them some of
his native companions Immediately ex-
claimed, "Roses of Sharon" and when
he inquired about the name he was told
that the anemone was there universally
SO called.
In truth it would not be easy other
wise to speak of a rose in Palestine, for
native roses do not exist there-at least
not where they would justify the associ-
alton of the plain of Sharon with their
name. Wild roses are found in Pales-
tine only on Lebanon, or where, here
and there, r. centifolia is cultivated for
the production of altar, as in the Wadi-

there is no warrant for understanding
by it true rose. The roses of Persia

The reciprocity treaty with Spain
is the third of such prizes drawn by
the United States under the Nc
Kinley tariff bill. To Brazil and
Venezuela fine trade with Cuba is
now TO be added. Under this ar
rangmert Cuba will take lard,
petroleum, flour aud pork. The
prospective tax on sugar which, but
for Spanish concessions would have
been imposed on Cuba's chief pro-
duct, persuaded the Cubians into
coercing Spain to make this agree
ment Notwithstanding it is in the
very teeth of the interests of the
mother country. Under the new ar
rangment the Cuban duty on Ameri-
can flour will be lowered so that it
:can be sold for So barrel, instead
of the $l2 that the Spanish flour has
brought. And the amount consumed
amounting to 100000 barrels annual
ly will now be doubled. Thus under
the reciprocity clause of the Nc
Kinley bill a large traffic with Cuba
has suddenly been opened up for the
American farmer in exchange for
sugar, whose price is already reduced
without interfering with the rights
and interests of the American sugar
producers. In another year the Nc
. Kinley bill will SO far have justified
itself that those democrats who
threaten its repeal will be looked
upon as enemies by the producers of
this country, and the party will be
retired to private life at the very first
election the people have an oportu-
nifty to retire them.-DetroitJ Journal.

The impression has been allowed
Z togo out that the Farmers Alliance
was a panacea for all the ills that
our granger friends have long been
heir to, and that under its bening in
fuence the prayer fthe son of Agar
would be fulfilled to every man, and
in the happy medium between
poverty and riches he would be
blessed: with the fullness of content,
henee'the shock that comes from the
reported doings of managers of the
Alliance in Texas. The affair got
into the courts and thence reached
the public. 1t seems that an AL
lance Exchange was conducted for
the sale Of goods to members, and as
the members of the Alliance every.
where are VIGOROUSLY short of cash,
it was arranged that members wish
ing to deal with the Exchange should
deposit with it their personal notes,
properly Endorsed, payable in the
fall and draw goods as needed. The
Exchange then hypothetical these
notes in payment for supplies, and
when it could no longer do this it
suspended and the holders of the
notes were referred to the original
makers for satisfaction. One farmer
testified that he gave his note for
$1,000 and received only $3.50 worth
of goods. He afterwards found his
note in the possession of Cincinnati
firm of wagonmakers and had to pay
it in full. 1t is such recitals as this
that tends to chill the child-like con-
fidence that the people have reposed
in the Alliance. 1t naturally excites
the suspicion that society which
manages its own affairs in such dis
astrous fashion would make lament
able failure in conducting the vast
business of the nation.-Courier
