Tho exports of manufactured arti-
cles from the United States for the
frat nine months Of this year aggresa-
ted in value 1874, 792, 443 as against
$145. 793, 1874 for the first nine months
Of 1895, and S111,2S7,421 for the first
nine months Of1S92, when the McKin-
ley bill was in full operation.
The total exports for the same time
in 1896 also show a healthy and pro-
nOunced increased Over the total ex-
ports for the same number of months
during previous years.
The home market is all right but il
ia not large enough To absorb the pro-
duction of American manufactures
hence the necessity for a ton eign mar
ket. The increased expectations prove
too, that American skill, pluck and
energy can compete with the world at
large, and that the superiority oi
American labor and ingenuity has
created a demand abroad for Ameri-
products.

Ment ion of revivlng business comes
from various quarters since the cleo
ton and our republican friends are
given to pointing to the fact as tho
harbinger of returning prosperity. 1t
was but natural to expect renewed ac-
tivity in business circles and in man
ufactnres, because orders had been
held back on account Of the natural
depression incident to every presiden
tial campaign, and because of the
natural tendency of people of putting
off things until after the election. 1t
is safe TO assert that there would have
been a business revival after the cleo
ton even if Mr.. Bryan had carried the
day, perhaps, not to some extent on
account of the apprehension incident
TO the contemplated change in the
monetary system, but still an appre-
cianle degree.
The present boom in business, while
gratif, ing does not give much assur-
ance Of permanency. 1t is to be ap-
pretended that a reaction will set in
the moment congress meets and ques-
tons of finance and a change of the
tariff agitated.

Mrs. Castle, a wealthy American
lady was arrested together with her
husband in London, sometime ago, on
the charge OF shop-lifting. Both were
tried last week, resulting, in the &C.
quital of the husband and the convic-
ton Of the wife. Mrs. Castle was
sentenced to three months imprlson-
ment, but was this week released on
the ground of responsibility for her
act. Hers seems a genuine case of
Klept0mania. aud for that reason ex-
ecutive ciemency WAS extended to her.
Her husband Immediately left
England with her on his return home.

On Tuesday, Nov. 10, 1896. at 3:45 a.. m,
JIM p. WILLIAMS,
age IS years, l month and rs days, a native
of Tennessee, and a resident of Thibodaux,
Louisiana.
I can not say; and I will not say,
That he is dead: he is just away
With a CHEEKY smile and a wave of the han
He has wandered into an unknown land,
Andleft US dreaming how very fair
1t needs, must be, since he has fingered there
And you oh; you, who widest yearn
Thinks of him, as faring, n as dear
In the love of there, as the love of here
Mild, and gentle, as he was brave
When the sweetest love of his life he ave
To simpler a thing where the vioiets grew
Pure as the eye there were likened to
The touches Of his hand had stayed
As r~everently as lips a prayed.
His children were as dear to him as the an
gels in Heaven
And he pitied them as much as a man in
pain.
Think OF him still; the same I say
He is not dead; he is just away.
A FRIEND.
