A Protest. Tothe EdItorof the JOURNAL, AND Col

Tothe Editorof the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The undersigned, committee appointed at a public meeting, held in the United church of New Haven, Conn, (Rev. T. T. Munger, D. D., pastor). March 15, 1893, desire, in behalf of the very large audi encs there assembled, and fairly repre- senting the sentiment of this community, to add our earnest protest to those already addressed to our government, against the sale by United States traders to the people of the New Hebrides of intoxicating liquors and firearms.
 We believe that such sales are in the highest degree demoralizing to the islanders tending directly to neutralixe the pious labors Of mis- sionaries, introducing most dangerous element into their daily life, and bringing disgrace upon . nation whose efforts should, every ground, be on the side of Christianity, civilization and good government.
 We, therefore, most respectfully call upon tho president of the United States, tho ssnate and house of representatives, to cooperate vigor- ously and as promptly as possible with other na- outrages which are being shamelessly perpe- ence is put in great peril by the wicked practices of which we complain.

Everybody Buys Candy at This Sea-
son Of the Year.


This is the season that everybody buys
candy. People who do not have sweet
tooth at any other season of the year have
one at Christmas time.
@Sweets to the sweet says somebody.
and there be those who are not quite so
sweet as some others, mayhap, whose
craving runs in the same general groove.
And the demand is not limited to age, or
sex either, although the male gender of
more mature years is rather inclined to
suggestion of crunching peanut taffy or
indulging in French CONNECTIONS.
The Christmas candies are a thing of
beauty and a JOY, not forever, but only
until eaten. French 'mousses, - or plain
taffy, sorbets, homemade caramels or
marrons de Guises, or orange Nougat-all
Is fish, one may say, that comes into that
net, the comparison being as between a
planked shad and yellow perch, and a
marion glace and a plain chocolate cream.
Candies run at-an prices, all the way
from IL and 10 cents pound to so cents a
pound, and good deal moro when put up
infancy packages. In the cheaper and
more common grades of andes the plain
nnolasses tatfya the walnut and peanut
tatfy, cream candy, chocolates, pepper
mints and lemon drops, burnt almonds
pound upto 40 cents Above 40 cents is
another realm, as it were, although the
prices run along up so evenly, and only a
very few cents in the pound difference,
that the line can badly be drawn
Chocolates are made in novel forms, in
the richer grades into acorns, for instance,
and in the poorer grades into a full
fiedged Santa Claus with flowing white
beard, moustache and eyebrows, and the
long brown coat and hood dotted over
with imitation snow-fakes-the whole
made up of the brown chocolate and
frosting of white sugar
The French CONNECTIONS are pistache.
marion de Guises, lemon and orange
Nougat, chocolates in twenty-five diner
ent varieties, and in conserves, pears,
apricots, lines, cherry brochette, mirav-
elles, etc, There are also very dainty
tid-bits, crystali4ed rose leaves and VIC
lets, at 50 per pound. The other French
corrections run all the way from so cents
to II so pound. The sweets at so cents
are good enough for anybody, though,
and a nicely assorted lot packed away ia a
delicate bonooniere is enough to tempt
ones best girl to repay him in kisses-not
made with sugar either. And she will
probably add little sentiment in prose,
most likely, but sounding sweeter to your
ears than the best concocted verse of the
machine poet.
1t is not difficult for the candy buyer to
make a selection at this season. One can
get all kinds and at all prices. from the
''yaller" taffy spread out in tin pan to a
crystalized violet or rose leaf done up in
brown paper, or bonboniere, the price of
which would keep a small family from
starving for a month, at least

A bill has been filed in the United
States court praying for the foreclosure
of the mortgage against the Chattanooga,
Rome and Columbus railroad, and also
the Savannah and Western railroad. The
party plaintiff is the Central Trust Com
pany, of New York. In the bill the COM
plainant alleges that a principal of s., 000,-
600 is due on the bonds of the two rail-
roads, which are under the same manage
ment and practically one company, in
addition to the interest up to Sept. /,
amounting to $50, $50, in addition to inter
est on both amounts since that time and
up to the fling of the bill. The bill is
quite lengthy document, and after
full statement of all the facts alleged it
closes with a prayer addressed to the
court, asking for a foreclosure of the
mortgages against the property of the
railroads. The attorneys fling the bill In

entry for its sleeper into Augusta by the
Richmond and Danville refusing to con-
meet and haul it from Columbia, The OIL
Gals of the Coast Line have constantly
been on the lookout for connection to

negotiating with the South Carolina and
Port Royal and Augusta for the transpor

with one of the other roads. This pro-
posed schedule will give a competitive
route from New York to New Orleans,
and will give Augusta the benefit of the

discrimination against Augusta by either
