only one hen is laying contains on the av-
erage about fifteen eggs, but she often be-
gins to sit before she has laid her fun

often SO many, sometimes only one or
two: while sometimes she will lay her full
complement. The hen generally begins
the sitting: she will occasionally sit for
one or two days and nights before the
cock takes his turn. When sitting as

generous, and free from the vices Of
scandalizing and envy which flourish in
small places, contrasted with the mer-
ceuary grocer whose petty interference

drunken, lazy Fred Dalrymple. Grand

The Bo ton Continuous company
opened weeks engagement at the

ent trapeze work. Hibbard won liberal
applause by bis performance on the
slack wire. Mart w. Zeilie sang two
taking songs. The Eldons appeared in
novel feats of Juggling interspersed with
flashes of comedy, forming a pleasing
combination. Rice and Delmar as Ger
man comedy sketch artists, produced
one of the best numbers on the even
ing's program OF specialties, and kept
the audience in a round OF laughter.

at s21, 900, 900. We are inclined, in the
meantime, to think that Mr.. Cages
estimates are much too low, but In any
event any improvement upon them Is
to come, we are assured, from an in
crease in the imports Of dutiable mer-
chandise.
But Is not this, from the Republican
point Of view, cause for woe and
lamentation? How in the world can
"Dingleys bill be all right" II the
principal operation Of it is to encour-
age or to produce an increase in the
volume of dutiable merchandise
brought into this country? Was 1t not
passed because the foreigner, under the
privileges granted by the wicked free
traders, was simply swapping US with
pauper-made goods? Have we not been
told, not only for months, but for years
past, that the country could not know
prosperity again until the mills, made
silent and the laborers thrown out Of
employment by Democratic free
trade" had the stimulus Of law
which would exclude the foreigners
from our markets? Such law the Re
publican party said that it was going
to pass, and such it has affirmed the
Dingley act to be.
1t is not our concern that the thing
Is a contradiction in terms. No DEM
ocrat has any obligation to explain how
you can raise revenue on imports by a
tariff that shuts out imports. That
is for the protectionist to ex-
plain. But we would like to
know how the Dingley bill can
be all right if the sole hope Of its sue
cess lies in Increasing the amount Of
imports of dutiable merchandise. That
is the panegyric bestowed upon 1t now;
and, If it is deserved, what must the
manufacturers think of it, whose bust
ness has come into all this increasing
competition; and what must be the
opinion Of the laboring man, who, &C
cording to all prior assertions OF the
Republican party, will find himself de-
prived Of the opportunity to earn a liv-
ing by a wicked Republican measure
that actually stimulates imports? The
Republican tariff argument is a beau
tiful illustration Of the principle Of the
three card monte man, because now
you see 1t and now you don't.
