An Adieotire Tint plonsen.

There is a mode of speech which may
be termed euphemistic by those who are
fond Of calling a spade a spade" but is
it not rather the natural expression of
the charity which never faileth? To say
the best of others is a manifest duty,
and to do it in tho prettiest language en-
hances it wonderfully. And where de-
fects exist that are commented on by
the unfortunate possessor in that i'll
judged fashion which attempts to as
sumo Indifference to the imperfections
how deftly may the confidante turn the
current of self depreciation into a smooth
er channel by "a nice arrangement Of
opitaphs." A young girl bewailed her
thinness in the hearing of man Of tact,
who instantly exclaimed: "Ihinl Why,
you are ethereal"
Possibly no sermon that this courtly
clergyman ever preached was moro i'm
mediately productive Of good results
than his well chosen adjective. His
hearer, delighted with the synonym,
which involved no sacrifice Of truth, but
which gave it a more attractive present
ment, resolved thenceforth so to choose
her words as to present realities in their
most favorable light, and to make truth
palatable instead Of a hard, bitter and liz
digestible morsel.-New York Recorder

IT may be true, rs the men in the pro.
tected industries say, that they cannot
compete with the pauper labor of Europe
without reducing the American working
men to state Of pauper labor here
They think they know best. They have
their profit aud loss account and their
balance sheets, which are private, and
we have nothing by which TO determine
whether their private business would be
profitable without a public bonus, or
not Nobody in the world can deter
mine that point but themselves. II is a
principle Of law that 20 man is com
petent witness, even, in his own case,
much less competent Judge Wit.
nesses and judges must always
be disinterested, to be in one case just, in
the other case reliable. Those who are
enjoying the benefits Of protection are
not competent witnesses or Just judges
they will testify and decide for them
selves. But we have just this TO say to
them: II after thirty, fifty and one
hundred years of dependent infancy they
are not ready now TO take the superior
and unequaled American laborer with
the inapproachable American machinery
and compete with the crude machinery
and pauper labor OF Europe and Asia,
they are not fit for their business, they
are not ft even TO live in this country
They can take their pauper shops, their
timid policies, and go back to Europe
with them. We are better without
them. This is a country for freedom aud
free men.
