but very. few have ever seen Paris.
The corset industry in this country has
been fostered by a protective tariff that
was first levied on this article when IL was
classified with other manufactures of cot
ton, and naturally the production was very
light; but of recent years they hove been
classified by themselves. and with this
classification came an increase IN the duty
on them. Immediately following this in

sets decreased considerably. and to-day
from so cents to 81 can be saved on the cost
of this article two years ago.
This is not the only item of interest con-

A Good Officer, but Not Great Enough for
the Army of the Potomac.
Boston Transcript
General Pope, whose death is announced
to-day, was a good officer. who was out
Stonewall jackson, and who was hsmpered
sessed by jealous ana unruly subordi-
mates. He was called 10 the command
of the army in Virginia at the time
when it had not fully recovered
from the Generalization of the PENN
sula campaign, and when its generals,
still cAnging to their shattered idol. were
willing TO give hearty support to- no one
but Mcclellan. Pope fought q losing CAM
paign. and has incurred a great amount of
censure from those who pass lightly over
McClellan's shortcomings. Whatever else
might be said against General Pope. it
could not be denied that his heart was In
his work. for he vas like Lyon. a hater
of slavery. and risked his commission
before the war by his avOwal of
his principles. Mcclellan, Pope. Burn
side and Hooker failed in Virginia,
and Meade fell short of the ex-
pectations raised by Gettysburg. The
Army of the Potomac never did it's best I'M
til il had at it's head, in the last year of the
war. q commander who wonld be obcyed,
ana whose genius permitted of no competI-
tlOn within the sphere OF his command.
After Grant took command there were no
jealousies; every blow the army struck with
all its strength. Had Grant commanded at
Antietam, still more had he commanded at
Getty sburg, the history of the war would
have been summap!y abbreviated.

The Two Letters.


Philadelphia Press.
There are reports that Cleveland's letter
as he had first drafted 1t was q very differ
ent document from that which appeared
this morning. Hills speech and other in
~fluences caused him TO throw the first draft
away, and the second one was written ut a
sinRle sitting. In that respect Cleveland's
composition was entirely different from
Harrison's. President Harrison wrote his
messag e at odd times. As opportunity and
suggestion came to him, he wrote with lead
pencil. sometimes upon a common writing
pad. once or twice upon the back of en-
yelopes, different paragraphs, 30 that be
was really two or three weeks in the entire
composition. There is no original manu-
script of the Presidents letter, and never
was excepting such as these bits of paper
furnished. After the final paragraph was
written the letter was copied by the Sec
rotary. but the final paragraph which ap-
pears in the letter was one of the first
which General Harrison wrote.
