DALLAS Dispatch remarks with
a great show of caudor, which is
more show than reality however,
that:
"Protection has given trial in
the United States; now tariff for
revenue only will be given trial.
The latter will be an experiment.
If successful the Democracy will
be in clover, if unsuccessful the
Democracy will BEG in the
sewer, temporarily. Heads l win,
tails you lose"
II the Dispatch had given its
readers the results that have fol-
lowed the protection policies Of the
country for the last quarter of a
century it would have laid the
foundation for an intelligent COM
parison Of facts and figures after
the Democratic experiment is
shattered by Republican victory.
Houston Post remarking upon
the small cost to this government
OF it present diplomatic and con-
sular service remarks:
"By and by, under an economical
Democratic administration the
service may be made self-sustain-

at would be strange indeed if
this condition of affairs had been
brought about by the Democracy
zE5ohin one year after gaining COM
rp4eGe control Of the government fcr
the first time in thirty years. The
home effects of that control are not
such as to warrant confidence in
its foreign outcome.

If Senator Hill has the courage
OF his formerly expressed opinions
on matters Of tariff, in the debate
that is to come so soon in the
Senate, there is no doubt as to
where he will be found when the
critical moment comes. He has
defined his position again and
again as that which stands COM
mitted to the protection of labor
and it is hardly likely that he will
go back upon what he has so often
and so openly stated. Hill is no
free trader.

India has an average export rof
gold Of The annual value Of 81, 25O,-
900, hardly as much as one would
expect from country Of 50 great re-.
pute.
Next to the Australian colonies, the
bulk Of British gold has gone from
Canada. In British Columbia there
is scarcely a stream of any impor-
lance in which the color OF gold
cannot be found. The yield from
the commencement of operations in
| 1853 has exceeded in value 500, OUO,-
600. The Cariboo district, discoy-
cred in 1860, has been the most pro-
ductive. The Van Wrinkle Nine on
Lightning Creek produced gold worth
sI5.70O in one week. The average
depth is 20 feet. The gold in the
bars and beaches of the Leaser river
from Hope TO above Alexander IS
very fine, and requires working with
quicksilver.
Tn Lower Canada there are over
10000 square miles of aurifcrous
gravel, but the principal center OF
mining in the East is in Nova Scotia,
which has been gradually growing less
productive.
In Russia, the annual yield of gold
| is of the estimated value Of $25, 0OO,-
600, but as fine Russian keeps his
details to himself, the outsider has
to be satisfied with the vaguest and
general totals. There is no doubt
that during the past twenty years the
Russian gold-felds have risen into
considerable Importance.

though the ounces may be estimated
at the standard rate, their value as a
matter of fact varies between Sl9

About six months ago my little son, aged
three, was very much troubled with breaking
out on his scalp and behind his ear. The places
effected we're about as large as silver dollar,
the flesh seemed raw and covered with little
blisters. The child suffered considerably, and
was naturally very fretful. 1tried several RENE
dies without obtaining any beneficial results,
in fact the eruptions seemed to be spreading
and new places breaking out. I concluded
to try the CUTIcURA REMEDIES, and bought
a box of CUTIcURA, a cake Of CUT1cURA SOAP,
and a bottle of CUTIcURA REsoLvEST. washed
the effected parts with the CUT1cURA SOAP.
taking care not to irritate the flesh, and applied
CUTICURA. noticed change for the better In
the appearance Of the eruptions in twenty-four
hours. continued the treatment morning and
night, and in two weeks the eruptions entirely
disappeared, leaving the skin smooth and the
scalp clean, in fact perfect cure, as have not
seen any indications of any eruption or 5r eaking
ou. since. gave the child only few doses Of
the CUT1cURA REsoLvEST. consider your
CUT1cURA REMEDIES very valuable, and expect
to keep a small supply constantly on hand.
believe CUT1cURA would be excellent for apply
ing to insect bites, which are very annoying in
