OUR MANIFEST DESTINY.

The following, taken from the Amer
acan Economist, that staunch organ of
Protection, will be appreciated by
everyone who has any pride in the
future development of the nation:
"Our manifest destiny is not to be
simply a great agricultural nation, but
to build up the richest and most be-
nefcent varied industry and commerce
in the world.
ave have exhaustless coal beds,
convertible into exhaustless power;
and iron, lead, copper and the precious
metals, e~xhaustless also. We have a
broad land Of varied wealth, cotton
and wool and food. With these gifts
of a beneficent Creator, we must build
up a diversity Of occupations, giving
complete scope to all powers OF body
and brain, opening employment to all
and helping to a higher civilization.
eve must train our skill, and de-
veiop our artistic taste or we fail be-
hind in the great and peaceful strife
of national industries. To be dull lag
CARDS in this noble emulation would
be sure disaster, keeping US down to
poverty Of life, few employments,
bankruptcy and dependence. Let the
settled policy Of our Government be
to protect our industry, and thus
our great and the genius
of our people, and we shall show such
results in character and wealth and
finest skill as the world has never seen.
Without such policy we shall grope on
in darkness and confusion, the giants
trampling the pigmies under foot, and
all striking at random to each others
harm.
"Under the old conditions in the
South, agriculture - and that almost
wholly of one kind, in the cotton field
was the leading and exclusive occupa-
ton. The fact was a blight on the life
of the people, and the fortunate hour
has come when it is being cured"

The Injustice of the Ballot Law.

"The Australian ballot law went into
effect in the Texas cities at the late cleo
ton, and it puzzled some of the sover-
eigns a good deal" said Dick Gwynn, a
wooden goods pilgrim now putting up Mt
the Laclede. ''Iwas in Houston on cleo
ton day and hired an old colored man,
who drives a dray week days and breaches
on Sunday, to move a trunk for me.

ALL FROM A POKER CHIP.

Why a Man About Town Was Made 60 Feet
Down in the Mouth.
The other day a gentleman well known
about town came down the street look
ing very much out of sorts. He carried
so much gloom in his usually cheerful
face that his friends were almost afraid
TO ask him what the matter was. There
are some of our lear fellow creatures
who in this respect are as transparent as
glass. They go around with a sign hang
ing out, "Tm out of sorts this morning."
or I'm just feeling bully; got my deal
through or t'The devils to pay up at
my house; I'll dine out todRy sure;" or
eff | catch that fellow I'll lick him." or
GIVE got a note to pay today" OF some
thing of that sort.
OF this mercurial kind was this partic-
ular gentleman. He had the mote due"
sign out to such an extent that you
couldn't have distinguished it from
s'death in the family"
s'The truth is" said he, when pressed
a little more sympathetically than usual,
eve had it hot this morning up at home.
You know / used to play cards some be-
fore I was married, and / got into a
pretty bad hole afterward and swore off
after q row with my wife. She has kept
a pretty stiff watch On me since. She is
always afraid I'll get to gambling again.
During the campaign l was out a good
deal, and I've been short of money ever
since the election"

admission that would have gone straight
to the heart of my friend, Colonel Swords,

Well, that COMPOUNDED chip fell out this

to make a clean breast of the election

Now, my wife is a redhot Democrat, and

Salvage ON q burning steamer.

1t is equally a salvage servi whether
assistance to a ship be renderc at sea or
in port, or whether the aid be given by
seamen or landsmen.
On Sept. 81, 1889, the steamship Bay
of Naples was lying at anchor near Bed
loe's island with a cargo of 55, 600 cases of
kerosene. The tug John Sylvester, pass
ing by, saw smoke pouring out of her
hatchway. Upon investigation it was
found that she was afire. The master of
the Bay of Naples requested the tugs
assistance in fighting the flames. The
tug signaled to half a dozen other tugs
in sight, and all went to work with q
will to fight the flames, which had
reached a small portion of the inflamma-
BILE cargo.
They succeeded in putting the fire out
after 185 cases of the kerosene had
burned. The tugs received $4,000 sal
wage, although their actual work did
not occupy much more than an hours
time.-New York Evening Sun.
