WORDSWORTH ON WOMEN.

Wordsworth INDUCES not in
frequently i'll caustic remarks OH
women who write, towards whom
he always retained a rooted objeC-
ton. 1t is said that after Miss
Martiucau took up her residence in
his neighborhood, this adherence
to authoresses sometimes took such
active expression that the dcaflady
was frequently obliged to see what
She could not hear, and pcrforCe,
to recognize that her presence was
unwelcome at Rydal Mount. She
herself, however, makes no mention
of anything of the kind, when al
luding to the Wordsworths, and
her intercourse with them.
On one occasion, after unsparing-
ly condemning a work Ivy Miss
Sedgwick, he concludes his criticism
thus: Such productions add to my
dislike Of Literary Ladies indeed
make me almost detest the name.
and further on again I find the
rather sweeping announcement that
blue stockingism is sadly at enmity
with true refinement of mind.
This last is said in reference to
Sarah Coleridge, whom he rather
pettishly accuses of monopolizing
Mr. Quillinan 5 attention on one oC-
Casion, during the time of the latter
engagement to his daughter Dora.
Perhaps, as the remark is made in 4
letter to Quillinan himself some
thing in the nature of a tacit re-
proof may be included in it for him
also.
That Wordsworth entertained a
high idea of womanhood in the
abstract is undoub ed, and is evident
in most of his poetry, but it is
equally true that he could i'll sup
port contradiction or interference
from the ladies Of his own family,
from whom, by the way, he was
likely TO meet with very little of
either He was lord paramount in
his home-the central figure in a
group of devoted and faithful adj
mirers, who could see no flaw in any
thing he said or did. His sister
and sister III law resided constantly
with them, joining wife aud daugh-
ter in one invariable chant Of praise
of his great gifts and vencration for
his genius.
Under such circumstances who
would wonder at the growing weak
ness for universal appreciation which
is said to have beset, in his latter
days, the grand old Lake poet?

to the main corridor of the building,

we account for the whole avenue

The remainder of the ground floor
is occupied by the cafe, the garden

main staircase, the reading room,
the service rooms for the great
dining room, and other such neces-
sites. A change i'll American hotel
life is evident i'll the restricted space
about the Office, and contracted halls
and passages, and, i'll short, the
absence of that unnamed and unap-
waste space which our
Older hotels leave free to the come
and go guests and guest S visitors.
All this is done away with, and the
guests are supposed to invite their
friends into the smoking room, or
cafe, or restaurant, or into a private
room. Another and similar change
is seen in the absence of large parlors
for ladies on the story above; there
are no public parlors there at all.
Ladies in this hotel have only
the reception rooms of the ground
floor in which to meet their friends.
Here is an upsetting of the old
customs with a vengeance! The
old-fashioned sitting inthe parlors
and promenading in the long CORR
doris of an evening are done away
with, or to be done away with,
then.

United States and mortgaging the future
or the country to meet a comparative
trihing present deficit. and to bridge over
the very short period during which there
may be further interruption of revenues
higher rates to prepare for business under
a low tariff system? There is one simple
and easy way of getting what money the
government needs, of securing sufficient to
meet all the demands of the current fiscal
year while making certain of ample reve-
nues thereafter to prevent the recurrence
Of a shortage between the current obliga-
tons Of the government and its collec-
tons.
That way is by the increase of internal
revenue taxes on articles already taxed.
The new revenues from IL would be collect
able by the system and official force now in
existence. without increased expense or
augmentation of the army of office holders.
wv Whisky Is the most fruitful source of
revenue. The present tax of 80 cents a gal
Ion has been collected without appreciable
loss through fraud by the excellent system
which was devised when the tax was fixed
at 30 cents per gallon. This system has
stood the strain of almost double tax
without showing any weakness, and in
fact. with increasing closeness of collec-
lions year by year A tax of $3.50. an in
crease Of 30 cents a gallon, would certainly
add to the revenues more than $4,000, 900
a year; but that Is not all. The imposition
Of such a tax to take effect at a day in the
near future-say sixty days after the en-
actment OF the law-would bring within
that time to the treasury an additional rev.
enue of not less than $50. 900. 600 which is
precisely what the government will stand
In need of during the present fiscal year."

ing. The details of the plan are gradually
assuring a definite form. II will exempt
individual incomes and will apply only I'm a
general way to inheritances and corpora
tons.
! he data furnished by the Treasury De-
partment shows that during the ten years
the tax was IN existence the receipts in
round numbers were S374O00,OO0. High
water mark was reached in 1866. During
that year the receipts aggregated So, 900 900,
and in the year following they were $751;
0oO,OO0. The great increase I'm population
and wealth since then leads the committee
TO believe that tax on corporations alone
will furnish a considerable amount of the
revenue needed to supply the deficit caused
by the reduction in tariff duties.
Chairmai Wilson now believed that 1885,
n0O.0oO will cover the decrease in revenues
public. He reached this conclusion after
careful examination Of the new tariff bill.
and this conclusion is shared by Secretary
Carlisle, with whom the chairman has had
repeated conferences.
A tax Of ten cents a pack on playing
cards has been suggested, and Will. no
doubt, be adopted, as all the ma jority menu
beers regard the proposition favorably.
The committee have reached no under
standing as yet regarding whisky. IL is
not likely that the tax will be increased
beyond ten cents a gallon, with a fair
probability that it may remain untouched.

A FIGHT LOOKED FOR.
There Will BE Fun When Brazilian
Ships Meet.

| The first naval engagement for years is
likely to take place within the next week
off the coast of Brazil 1t will be a fight
between the Republica, one of Admiral
Mello's insurgent vessels, and the America
and the Nictheroy, the two ships recently
purchased in New York for the Piexoto
government
Minister Mendonca has received a cable
announcing the arrival yesterday of the
Nictheroy at one of the West India islands
The cable stated that the vessel had be-
haved beautifully: that she had been
speeded to her full capacity, and that her
officers were delighted with her splendid
sailing qualities. Senior Mendonca expects
some time tonight to hear of the arrival of
the America at the same port. The two
vessels will then leave in company within
the next twelve hours for Bgazil. They
left New York under sealed orders. These
orders will be opened when they sail from
the W est indies. They VIII steam direct to
one of the ports in northern Brazil, where
they will receive instructions from kio,
which will govern their future movements.
The America and the Nictheroy are looking
for the rebel cruiser Republica, and If they
meet, says the minister, there will be
trouble. The Piexoto vessels are SO fear
full of missing the Republica that each of
their captains carries a large-sized picture
of the Republica. Their instructions from
the minister are to avoid fight, but the
minister shakes his head sadly and says
significantly that he is very much afraid
the crews will disregard his Instructions
He says they are the most determined lot Of
men he ever saw. and, as he expresses it,
literally spelling for a fight" If they do
fight the minister thinks they will make
mince meat of the Republica. The Repub-
lica, Mr.. Mendonca, says Is the only ves-
sci of any size that the rebel chief has on
the ocean. The Republ!ca thinks the
America and the Nictheroy are only carry
ing working crews, and for that reason
will have no hesitancy in attacking them

which are looking for the America and the
Nictheroy, the commanders of these vessels
are on the lookout for the torpedo boats
and are not likely to be taken unawares
The few other vessels that Mello has on
the coast are, Mr.. Mendonca says, clumsy
merchantmen. carrying a few rapid-fire
guns, all of whom combined could not
stand for thirty minutes against the Mic
theroy and America. Senior Mendonca is
not disturbed by the reports which reach
here via London of the reported uprising
in the state of Para, and regards the Eng

in naval cipher. and it could not be trans

that Capt. Picking had heard reports of
disturbance. probably of a revolutionary
character, at Pernambuco The officer,
however, discredits the authenticity of the
reports. There have been unofficial re-
ports. which are also discredited by the
Brazilian minister of a revolutionary move

some way the two places. both on the north
