Telling Stories.

CEben f. Rexford in the Youths Com

My little one climbs on my knee TO say
In the coaxingest, cunningest kind OF a
way,
"P'ease tell me a tory, dest one" and

He says with a hug and long. long kiss
That he gives as the story-teller's fee,
SO what can do but grant his plea?

This bars the way then for Little 30 Peep
And the boy in the haystack fast asleep;
The pigs that went TO the market. too.

With a kiss for the dimpled check and
chin,
And what | tell him / scarcely know,
Since the thread Of my story tangles so
That ! lose the run OF it, halfway
But that doesn't matter-its "somehn'

The story ends. There's a pause. and
"P'ease, mamma" pleadngly "tell it
And tell IT over. and when It's done
There's a quick demand for another one,
And the queerest stories that | invent
Are those with which he Is best content.
All at once the lids Of my little ones eyes
Waiver. and droop and in vain he tries
To lift them. and keep them from closing
quite.
A moment more and they shut the light
Away from the eyes that Win dreams are
deep
And my lover Of stories is fast asleep.

EDWARD ATKINSON.

Mr.. Edward Atkinson. the gifted
theorist and versatile statistician, was
invited before the Southern Associated
Press Association here TO unfold a plan
for the Improvement OF the ccuntrys
finances. but IT. lieu Of giving his hearers
enlightenment upon a subject which all
the country is anxious about, he lectured
them on the subject Of free silver &c.
That was bad enough, but what was
far worse, he bloomed out as a great
admirer OF old John Brown. Indeed, Mr..
Atkinson took especial pride in stating
that he had contributed money to the
John Brown cause IN Kansas.
There were not many. Palmer and Buck
ner Democrats in the press meeting, but
well warrant that not one of them even
will certify that Mr.. Atkinson's speech
was judicious or appropriate.
The truth is that while Mr.. Atkinson
is doubtless a well-meaning man, he
doesn't understand southern character at
all, and hence he is far more likely
to iDture than to aid the cause which he
is favoring just now.

EnrcArIoN AT TIE SOUTH.

A contemporary. in discussing the pro-
gress of education in the South. gives
some exceedingly interesting and signi-
ficant statistics bearing upon the matter
statistics, indeed that are calculated TO
surprise even our own people. and which
certainly are n nut 20 crack for our north
crn friends. who delight to pirate about
southern ignorance. After stating that
while In the last twenty years the South
has increased 81 per cent in population
she has increased 1870 per cent. in her
school enrolment. our authority says that
one in five OF the population attends
school higher proportion than in any
country Of Europe. except Saxony; that the
value OF school property increased IN the
South between 1874 and 1894 from $l6oO.OO
to S5l.0j000O. and that the average value
Of a school-house had risen In that time
from $s7S to $6i3. While It adds, in 1914
the southern college students in southern
colleges numbered II ,lo8. In 1894 the num-
Der was 25,3Oi. In the eighteen years pre-
ceding 1894 there was spent from public
taxes on the schools $500 10000. OF which
$780, 900 went 10 the education OF the
negroes. Ninety-fve per cent. Of the
whole sum is paid by the white tax-pay-
ers. In every hundred whites twenty
three are enrolled in the schools, and nine
teen Of every hundred colored. In 1874
there were enrolled 57l.5O5 colored and
1.S27. 139 white children: in 1891 the figures
were 1,424,99j colored and 3,S35,593 white.
And yet we hear continually from
northern negrophile sources walls over the
down-trodden condition Of the negroes of
the South. The world does not show
parallel to what the southern whites
have done for the negro race since the
war. Nor is that all. The southern negro
would be still better off had he been de-
livered from the tender mercies Of his
false northern friends

he says. from trustworthy sources that
It is true that the President and Secre-
tary Carlisle are strongly Inclined in
favor OF an increase OF the internal tax
on beer. from 81. the existing rate, TO
s. a BARREL and that the Secretary II
somewhat inclined TO consider favorably
misunderstanding Hamlins proposition
to impose revenue duty on tea and
coffee imported from foreign countries.
The Tribune's correspondent then pro-
ceeds to give some calculations as to the
rcvenuc-producing power OF these two
schemes. which. seeing that the whole
subject is likely to be pretty thoroughly
discussed. we reproduce, as follows:
At 81 q barrel tho internal-tax on fer
mented liquors amounts in round figures
10 $2,00Oc0 a year. on the same out
put and consumption the tax at 50 a bar
lci would amount OF course. to s6i,0VOD
a year. and add 100000 10 the total
annual revenues The importatlons Of
coffee entered for consumption during the
fiscal year ended June 30. 1886. amounted
10 40 pounds. Of the total value
Of Ssi.S132f0: ana the total importations
ed to 93.s9fio 7 pounds. OF the total value
OF Sl2GSS.T S9. on that volume OF impor-
tations a specific duty on coffee Of cents
a pound would yield about 100000 a
year. or AZ 20 per cent. ad valorem II
would yield about si7,co00oo a year: while
n specific duty OF 10c pound on tea would
yield s93S9,000 a year. or an al valorem
duty OF 20 per cent. would yield about
g. 10000 a year. In the one case, the
annual increase Of revenue from coffee
and tea might be reckoned at SSS 000,000
and I'm the other case at somewhat less
than $1,000 900.
1t should be said, however. as TO the
beer-tax scheme. that its opponents
claim that to double the tax would
neither double nor greatly increase the
revenue. especially in the first year after
It should become operative.

sire Of my friends on the subject when
the proper time comes FOR the agitation
OF the question. II seems 10 me the
people ought to have rest from political
excitement for at least awhile. | desire
to give you a frank answer, and wish to
find words to express my own feelings
on the subject.
First | want a winning man nomi-
mated; | want Democracy 10 be ri
umphant and the management Of Vir-
ginia's affairs to be held In the HANDS
Of her own true sons. And to this End
| do not think there ought TO be any
unseemly scramble for the nomination.
The people should be allowed TO give free
expression OF their choice for stand
ard-bearer and whoever it may be ought
to put forth efforts worthy Of such an
honor
Democracy does not propose to lower
its crest before any party 50 -Ong as
human rights and liberty are TO be main
tanned
Whilst | am deeply grateful for all
my friends have done for me, and for
their constant and continued manifesto

making no personal efforts TO Jecure the
