A marvel of the ceramic art is a
bureau and bedstead made at the
factory of an English potter as a
wedding gift for the Duke and Ouch

furniture are as perfect if not as use
full as if they were made of wood.

roses, and in their hearts, so that
they light the mirror at night, are

No Wonder.

After a dinner at Lord Dungar-
vans Lady Morgan writes in her
diary, l met the redoubtable Dan
O'Connell. Dan is not brilliant in
private life, not even agreeable. He
is mild, silent, unassuming, apparent
ly absorbed, and an utter stranger to
the give-and-take chain of good So
ciety l said 50 to Lord ClanIlcarde,
who replied "If you knew how l
found him this morning. His hall,
the very steps of his door, crowded
with his clientele. He had a word
or written order for each, then hur-
ried off to the law courts, thence to
the improvement soc ETY., and was
the first guest here to-day. Two
hours before he was making that
clever but violent speech to Mr.. La
Touche; and now no wonder that he
looks like an extinct volcano"

Whimsical Fashion.

After all, it must be admitted that
extravaganza has its advantage; sc
far as the world at large is concerned,
the spend-thrift does it more good
than the miser. Every change in
fashion gives labor and livelihood to
many waiting hands. If women are
extravaganza in matters OF dress
and men too, for that matter-it di-
rectlyl benefits other and poorer
women, 1t also benefits the weary
manufacturer, who spends his life
chasing this tickle dame and trying
to arrive each season with her. If
successful, he makes "a hit of the
season." and is encouraged to keep on
at a rate faster than any exposition
tlier. If he fails, we only wonder
why he didn't know that style
would never CO." and his only re-
source is to try again, for this elusive
Madame Fashion cannot always es-
cape. 1t is wearisome work follow
ing fashions changes, but, on the
other hand, such faithful followers
often are repaid royalty and reap
many golden dollars for their ideas
thus carried out.

The Cat in the Meal.

Congressman Henry W. Blair of Man
chester, n. H., has addressed letter to
workirgmen, written from the House OF
Representatives, at Washington, Deceni-
Der 10, which reads III part as follows
THE men now in control of the Gov
crnment are full. Of the idea that the dc
struction of New England will scatter
manufacturers and capital and skilled
labor, in all occupations, to other parts
of the country. They think that if they
can break down the plants, the factories
and capital and labor now established in
our part Of the country by the operation
OF this Free Trade Tariff, until 1897 or
1885, that when the country returns to
Protection again capital will locate i'll
the South and West, where the raw ma
tcrias are, and leayc our section of the
country out in the cold entirely
Even if the next House should be Re
publican, the law cannot be repealed SO
long as Mr.. Cleveland is President, and a
new Tariff could not be enacted and put
in operation in less than one year after
the next administration goes into pos
session of the Government, March 4,
1897. Thus YOU see that if this bill passes
there will be five years Of stagnation and
ruin before us.
"If the passage OF this bill is to be pre-
vented there must be immediate action
by the people themselves. Nothing else
will arrest the knife that is aimed at the
heart oc our industries. Petitions and
circumstances addressed to Congress
and resolutions OF public meetings are Of
the utmost importance. The W hole
country must be aroused Nothing but
a general uprising of the people will do
any good. Farmers are hurt by this bill
worse titan any other class of our people,
and every agricultural organization in
New England should make itself felt. "
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1894-01-12

enough to wish TO create national drsas-
ter for the sheer sake of forcing their
own opinions or theories into law, when
nobody is demanding it.
The petitions that are at this time ds-
luging congress arc from laborers of al
most every trade. farmers, mLnulactur-
ers, sugar growers, coal miners, in fact,
from almost every class and everybody.
The whole thing seems 10 bc beIOtten OF
a stupid theory on the part of Cleveland,
and by a malice on the part OF Southern
and Southwestern demagogues toward
the business interests and the condition
OF the New England and the Eastern
States. The change in the tariff laws, If
any is made. will be on account of the
controlling spirits i'll the Democratic
party, who know no craftsmanship
which does not antagonize some repub-
ican principle, and who are willing to
beat their own brains out for the sheer
purpose of doing contrary to what Re
publicans have done heretofore.
If the country did not prosper under
Republican rule and ascendcncy a change
ought to be made, but So tar as the
change has gone on it is from prosperity
to destruction, from plenty to hunger,
from labor to idleness, from greatness to
ruin. The experience has gone far
enough. Nobody wishes to proceed fur
Their i'll this line Of political experiment
Ii the tariff smashers could be manaclcd
at once and put where they could do nc
| harm hereafter there would he q shout Of
rejoicing that would sound from the At
lantic to the Pacific, and new impetus
set to the things of business, which
would surprise the world.
Nobody except those which are blinded
or bcnumbcd by political prejudice.
would expect to lift country out o
disaster by resorting to and prolonginl
the causes which brought on the disaster
nobody other than the Democratic states

to run the things OF government. wou'C

Committed to UnskiiIed Hands.

When the heads of our great commercial
houses and industrial, adjustments CON
template the makeup OF the Committee
on Ways and Means, in connection with
the Tariff bill reported to the House,
they can readily understand why the pro-
visions of the bill SO siEnally fail to meet
the wants of the times, and create such
distress and alarm throughout the entire
North.
Wilson, whose name the bill bears,
comes from Charleston. W. Va, a quiet
town of 2,2S7 inhabitants; Mcmillan
comes from Carthage, Tenn, an inland
village containing 37S inhabitants; Tur-
ner comes from Quitman, Ca, a sleepy
town containing a population of 1,S6S;
Breckenridge halls from Pine Bluff, Arkan-
sas, river town that now has, and
nearly always has had, a population OF
1000; Montgomery is a resident OF
Elizabeth, Ky, a small Ohio river town,
and Bvran comes from Central Nebraska.
The great commercial and manufacture
ing cities OF New York, Brooklyn, Bos-
ton, Pittsburgh, st. Louis and Chicago
were completely ignored, and a measure
of vital Importance to the whole country
was committed to the hands OF COM
mittee, made up in the main OF Southern
village lawyers who have no practical
knowledge of commercial interests be
Sond the scope of a country store, or OF
manufactures beyond water-powcf
saw mill or horse power threshing ma
Chine. From such source the country
expects no cure for the prevailing paraly
sis of business, and verify it shalt not be
disappointed.

ISLAND POND, IT, JANUARrI2.

The year off grace 1893 which has Just
est for us as a nation. The chief thing
has of course been the Columbian Expo
stion. 1t is impossible to over estimate
the effect If this great gathering OF all
the nations of the earth. Ii certainly
will have an influence in bringing about
the great time when Ill the people will
recognize that they are members ol a
common brotherhood and that what
affects one nation affects all nations.
Those bonds by which humanity is
united into one great family were DEM
onstratcd as they were never demon
strRtcI before. The people OF every
speech and every zone learned new
lesson in the arts and graccs of life and
civilization. The year will be mcmora-
bic also for the financial depression which
has touched and weakened not only our
own industries and commerce, but the
industries and commerce of the entire
civilized world But this too has had its
effect in humanizing direction. Such \
condition of things directs the attention
ofevery class toward every other class.
The rich think of the poor and the POOR
think of the rich, and this, not always in a
hostile or bitter way. Misfortune in
many instances Softens the human heart
1t shows this influence both upon the
prosperous and upon those who. suffer
Those deep sympathIcs which Slumbel
in times of peaceful and growing wealth
when every purse is full, and every hand
is employed, are touched and opened II
periods of want, This has certainly beer
the case during this winter and this fact
signalizes the year.

which naturally resulted, together with
other complications. resulted in his
