Maine apples are at premium in
England Just now. Our neighbors across
the -ca have fonud that while oranges.
bananas and all such languid fruits from
tropic climcs may BE- dispensed with and
nobody miss them SO very much the
hardy apple from Maine, with its firm
pulp impregnated with the strong air of
these northern hills, the rich flavor
which only Names strong soil can give,
is necessity which cannot be overlook
cd no matter how the prices run. And
so Londoners are paying s. 80 per barrel

will doubtless turn over more than that

1t has been declared that the United
States Senate never had a rule limiting
debate, but such is not the case. The
senate of the First Congress had such a
rule, and it Nads as follows:
Rule In case Of debate becoming
tedious. four senators NAV call for the
question or the same number NAV, at
my time, move for the previous ques-
ion. viz, Shall the main question now
be put?'
The rule, which was adopted by the
iirst Senate, was doubtless dropped be-
cause there was no occasion to use it,
the dignity of that body for many years
being above the tilibustering tactics of
the Democrats in the present Senate.
The necessity for such rule now being
apparent. would it not be wise to have it
adopted and enforced.
