IT WILL Be A COMPROMISE.

American grain and hay are going
abroad with rush this fall, owing to the
drought in England, France and other
foreign countries and the consequent crop
failures. Already, as hitherto noted, the
English are prophesying the return of
gold to the United States in steady guam
titles shortly. This will como not only to
meet the balance of trade but for invest
ments which the vast resources of our
country must serve to bring particularly
to the attention of the foreigners when
compared with the depressed condition
of things abroad, even in the much vaunt-
ed "gold basis nations. Thus we may
fairly expect good times this fall, and
about the time that congress meets these
good times are coming as a harbinger to
western interests. Whys Because the
Cleveland administration is going to run
against these good times when it attempts
to effect bald-headed repeal of the silver
purchase act. If congress we're in session
to-day, with the numerous failures now
coming in mercantile and financial circles,
there would be much better chance for
repeal of the act than there will be three
months hence. As matters now look We
confidently expect compromise on this
subject that will completely paralyze the
single-standard advocates and that will
prove clear victory for the west in that
it will bring widely extended use of
silver as lawful money.

The WQRkiNcMAN,s FRIEND.

The Democratic party is never weary
proclaiming itself the workingman's
friend, and they propose to prove the
statement by putting wool, coal, lead ores,
fruits and what is called raw material on
the free list and by lowering the duty on
all the articles on the tariff schedules until
importations of foreign goods will be
increased three or four fold, thus throw
ing tens of thousands of men out of en-
ployment, or reducing wages to the same
level from which crowds of immigrants
have been and arc now fleeing hither as
from pestilence. To compensate our
mechanics and laborers for this ruin of
their respective industries the Democracy
propose to saddle an income tax on ne,
saying with their usual duplicity, that
such a tax will only be levied on tho rich,
when they well Know that the rich always
have and always will find ways of trans-
ferring the burden to the shoulders of the
poor. We know the Democrats will deny
this, but eight months ago they denied
through the mouth of Joseph, the truth
full, that free wool would reduce the price
of that article, and now tho deluded wool
growers find to thoir cost that the mere
threat to put wool on the free list has
knocked the price down to cents, and
no market even at that figure. Now will
they believe the false prophets of tho De-
mocracy again, or the Republicans who
told them the plain, honest TRUTH They
are free Americans and can take their
choice.

The great United States government at
Washington is living in rented quarters
to a large degree. Many of the buildings
owned by it are unfit for habitation.
For instance, take the government print

about thirty years, according to anti

of protesting against free wool, which
you SO eloquently advocated last fall
Can't you snatch few days from your

are all mistaken and that shoddy aud not
free wool is the cause of the present alb

Must BE PIacated.

There is good ground for believing that
much of the agitation in regard to pen
sionsis due to desire to get at the treas
ury under the plea of detecting fraud.
While the ex-confederates of the south
and disloyal Democrats of the north are
debarred, for tho present at least, from
receiving government pensions, they are
not debarred from profitable appoint

in search of fraud, but really in search of

ministration owes it's power to the Bour-
bons and they must be placated in some

RAFT CONVEYING SOLDIERS ACROSS A RIVER.

1712 until the year 1918, and that
subsequently, he served four consecu-
tive terms as Mayor. In addition to
the negro slaves there were many
Indian slaves held in the colony
For convenience in hiring, the law
was passed November 30, I'LL, that
"all negro and Indian slaves that are
let out to hire within the city do
take up their standing in order to be
hired at the market house at the
Wall street Slip" Probably the
alarm bred of the so-called negro plot
of l741 was most effective in check
ing the growth of slavery in this city.
Certainly the manner in which the
negroes charged with fomenting this
predetermined conspiracy were dealt
with affords food for curious ref1ec-
ton upon the social conditions Of the
time After trial that would have
been a farce had it not been u
tragedy, Clause was condemned to be
"broke upon a wheel" Robin to be
hanged in chains alive, "and so on to
continue without any sustenance I'M
til he be dead;" Tom to be burned
with slow fire until he be dead and
consumed to ashes, and so on. How
ever, everything depends upon the
point in view. In that strong,
stomached time judicial cruelty to
animals met with universal approval,
and, as to slavery, the worshipful Sir
Edward Coke but very few years
earlier had laid down the doctrine
that pagans properly could be held in
bondage by Christians, because the
former were bond slaves of Satan,
while the latter were servants of God.

SLAVERY DAYS IN NEW YORK.

The Captain of Successful Trader in Live
Freight Was Four Times Mayor.
On the tul n from the seventeenth
to the eighteenth century slave-deal-
ing was an important and we'll
thought-of industry, or, in the more
elegant phrase of one of the gravest
of New York historians, "a species of
maritime adventures then engaged
In by some of our most respectable
merchants. The Dutch are credited
with having brought the first cargo
of slaves to the northern part Of
America-from their possession on
the Guinea coast to the Virginia
plantations-and,a according to Har-
per's, a regular part of the business
of the Dutch West India company
was providing African slaves for use
in the American colonies. The
profits Of the business, even allowing
for the bad luck of a high death rate,
was so alluringly great that it was
not one to be sighted by the emf
nently go-ahead merchants of New
York, and the fact must be remem-
bered that as a business slave-dealing
was quite as legitimate then as is the
emigrant traffic Of the present day.
Young John Cruger has left on record
most edifying account OF a voyage
which he made out Of New York in
the years 1690-1700, in the ship
Prophet Daniel, to Madagascar for
the purchase of live freight, and the
