No other complaint are so insidious in their attack as those affecting the throat and luagst none so trifled with by the majority t suffer ers. The ordinary cough or cold, r-eultfng perhaps from a trifling or uneoai p ex posure, is often but the beginning c a fatal sickness.

I boliove In a tariff aJjueled u on a strictly revenue basis, made ao plain and simple that it will be understood by all. Protection, restriction and re taliation, all lead to poverty and the ruin of the raaasei. Our public lands have boon given away until they art well-nigh exhausted, and their vaat products are credited to the protected policy, though the producers are not allowed to buy what they need with what they soil, except from associations of protected anufaoturert and at such prices aa they may chooto to ask. Our marohant uurine i driven from the as, and while we have no ebipa and do not build any worth speaking of. except under the monopoly of the coastwise trade, the farmer, who It oom polled to send hie products abroad, and mutt do to by ship, U not allowed to buy a ship abroad at toy prioe, while the manufacturer oan buy all the Eog lieh machinery he pleates to do the work of American operative. No ooe will attempt t. deny the fact that high protection has ruined our oummeroe,end hat drivtn our ships from tht teat. In order that a country may be pros perous, according to past experience and political economy, commerce must be free. Of all the ships that come and go from our porta, not ene do you see carrying the American flag, while, upon the other ban J, you see ships from all foreign nations. It is claimed that England, alone, doee 60 of our carry ing trade eod other foreign nations do tbo balance. Statistic tell us that we pay foreign nations $130,000,000 an nually to do our commereitl buttnest. Can a more degrading or humiliating condition for a once treat shinning country be imagined t The sixty thou sand gallent sailors we had in I860 are all gone, orotic in the service of foreign oations. This is enough to condemn this protection system with all fsir thinking men the world over. No commerce in the world is so obstructed by Legislation in the inter est of the few, to the injury of the great mate, at in thit boasted land of eo,ual rights. Ws lands works on political economy, which are adopted in moat all the col leges as a test .book, takes up this auhject and discusses it thoroughly. It shows, and, I think, in a very plain and simple manner, that this cleat pro tection is detrimental to commerce and a burden to the laboring torn. As far at I can ascertain, all the Profs, in the colleges are absolutely down on protec tion, so much to, tt least, tbat they don't teach it, nor recommend it to be taught. When this bill for protection was paaaed by Congress, it was claimed by its authors and advocatee to be only temporary to meet the exigencies of a war. The idea of saddling it upon the government at a permanent policy was not dreamed of, as the debates of con gress will show. From 1846-61 was our period of comparative free trade ; never bat thit country before or ainoe been in a more prosperous condition. Now if high protection it not beneficient to the monopolies of this country, why it it that whenever tnything it said in congress concerning the tsriff, that these capitalists ruth to "Washington in large numbers with their pocket filled with gold, and try and do bribe the representatives ef the people in their interest, pty tttorneyt enormous turns, who live in elegant atyle, to lobby year in and ; ear out for their interest, It it not s notorious fact that they do it ? Tbo millionaires, made ao by congress, pay no more to support thit govern ment than their humblest operatives. In short, combinations of wealth de mand and grant nothing that gives relief to the unorganized masses of the people. If protection supports the gov ernment and sustains it, at it olaimed by itt advocatee, Thy it it that it hat net long ago paid off the National debt, if it it tuch a benefit to the people snd the government ? Now let nt ex amine and tee what are the real facts about it. The poor negro in the South who hoes corn for 910 per month, is ttxed 35 on bit shoe lettber, 75 on his jack knife, 100 on his flannel shirt, and other things in proportion. Take the cotton grower of the South, who furnished more exports in 1881 than all the manufacturers put togeth er, yet the iron end steel manufacturers get their raw material free, and their products are protected by a duty rang ing from 30 to 180 per cent. When the ootten grower starts out in the spring to put in his orop, he is taxed 50 per cent on his wagon, plow,harrow. hammer, hoopi- for his barrels, etc From the time he sees the light in the morning until darkness at night, he sees no untaxed hour or untaxed thing. He is enveloped in taxation, soaked, steeped and saturated in it. The Bessemer steel monopoly mno faotured, according tr statistician 1880, 954,46d tons of steel', which they were enabled by the tariff to sell for $ 64, 726,056 net profit for them of which $31,155,320 was caused by this protec tion. According to estimate the same year, the cotton crop of eleven southern states, with near 12,000,000 of people were $12,000,000; now ooutrast this difference, and see what protection does. Oosen't this prove that instead of protection supporting the govern ment; it makes one class rich and another poor 1 In ether words, it favort monopolies tsd works a burden to the laboring man. If you protect one branch of indus try, yen injure all others ; therefore, protecting the manufacturing interest, yos Injure the agrioultural interest. Who would think for a moment tbat in this, the world's great Republication state ef affairs existed ! We want a protection for revenue only one tbat will support tee government, and not enrich priveleged classes, not mske the laboring men support tht govern ment end make the rich richer. Whenever you csn prove that 3 boys may sit down and trade jack knives until etch one makes $1 50 snd gets the best knife- then you can prove protection beneficial, Our forefathers provided in the constitution under which we livr, snd which we are supposed to obey.thst there should be absolute equality. Tbey did not provide for any restriction oo the trtde between these states and for eign nations, except tuch as may be necessary to raise a revenue to support the government to provide for the com mon defense en i promote the general welfare.

Allinton writes to the Lon don Times to give the result of some experiments which he hssjust made with the purpose of solving the diffi culty of feeding the poor In London. The cry It that food It to dosr that tbo poor cannot live. Thit is only true, Mr. Alllason says, If they want luxuries. On plain and wholesome fare they csn live very cheaply.

This I usually ate with bread to imure thorough Insillvatlon.

' The other day, when old Major Sol man announced hit readiness to pro ceed in the direction of church, hit wife appeared, wearing a Mother Hubbard dress. The old mtn intently regarded her for a few moments and asked : "Mary, what sort of a coat do you eall that?" It's a Mother Hubbard, Jeema ?" 'Air you goin' to wear it to church I" " Why, certainly , J eemt. The Moth er Hubbard is all the fashion new." 'Well, I'm glad to know it," the old man replied. "Just wait until I get ready, and we'll go." The old man went out into the kitch en, took a couple of meal sacks, cut the bottoms out, sewed the tops together, and put them on in imitation of panta loons. When he returned bis wife ut tered a loud cry ot astonishment, and exclaimed : "Great rroodness. Jeems. what's O r r ' ' that r "Father Hubbard," the old man re plied. "You're not a-goin' to wear them tacks, are you )" "I've got to be fashioaable to keep up with you. I've got as much right to wear these meal bags as you have to go in that barn sack." "I'll take it off." "All right ; off goes the Father Hub bard," and turning away he added to himself : "Only one way to beat s wo man, and that is by agreeln with her If it hadn't been fur the Daddy Hub bard I'd a been in mighty bad fix."

Tht Democratic party of thit State teems to be determined to make the taunt of being the orgtn of the "rum interest" no longer tenable. It it strong ly letning towards tempersnce, not in the tents in which the Prohibitionistt would tnforoe it, but in the wsy of leg ulating the traffic in spiritout liquor and preventing it from over spreading bounds. In the Legislature this dis position manifests itself by the ardent support which the party stands ready to bring to the aid of excise measures proposed by the majority. Is the city, tht efforts of Tammany Hall and itt or. gan, The Star, to root out the divea and diminish the number of drinking places in each district are really noticeable, and are bound to produce the beat fruit adherents of the liquor interest through thick and thin teem to think thtt John Kelley ig losing hit besd, and tbat bit efforts to "ruin bit own supporters," tro but little short of suicidal. But Kelly, whatever else may be said of bim, is s far seeing and clear-headed man, and generally judges signs ef tht times aright, tnd be tees tbat the Democratic party cannot afford to place itself on record at opposed to the regulation of liquor interest. There is a lull in President making at present. No new dark horse has been brought out, end the competitors lor the race who bae been galloped forth and paraded teem to btve grown tired of prancing and cavorting, and retired for the moment. In Republican ranks, howover, the csndidscy cf Arthur still forms the bone ot contention, snd in thit State psrticulsrly, sny step on his part or thst of bis backers, tbat might be construed into ao attempt to prove bis chances, is st once analysed and scorched in an unmiatskesble fashion. For thit reason the Legislative investi gation of Municipal Departure sts, now in progress in thit city, will not pro duce sny practical result, st it ia looked upon by s large number ef bit own party st limply a covert attempt on the part of the Arthur Republicans to provide psp for the President's workers. And if the worst comet to the worst, Kescoe Conkling is still there te draw s fol lowing. Mr. Villsrd, the unfortunate Presi dent of the Northern Pacific, is gradu ally recovering from hit physical and mental prostration, and his condition bids fair to enable bim to take an active interest in affairs again. A great deal of sympathy was created far him at the time of the Northern Pacific oollss , by the statement tbat be had givers tip bis entire fortune to satisfy his credi tors. A Wall Street man, however tells me thst out of the ruios be scrap ed together a little fortune which will prove little short of a million, and with this the poo- man may get along. In fact be it said to have made another haul of half a million during the recent bull raid in Wall Street on Northern Pacific and similar kindred securities. "Take my word for it," said ax old student of Wall Street, "Villard may not be ready for decided action until the fall ; be may not with to btve bit summer's rest broken, but he will be back on the street, with bit way clearly marked out, and, as he is a good bate and has plenty of pluck, somo of the men who broueht about his ruin, will have reason to regret their folly." I had a talk with the head of one of the leading real estate firms a day or two ago, and he assured me that rents would not go down. I n the buin portion of the city an advance in the prioet asked last year is probable. In some of the newly built heuses en the extreme esst tide of uptown, there it a slight decline in the prises asked, but at a rale desirable property for dwel ing ptrrpeset holdt itt own. Said he "the city grows in population so stead ily and so enormously, both through emigration from the old world, from people who came from other Statoa to improve their condition, and through the influx of people who have made money in the West and Southwest, and prefer to spend it amid the more attrac tive surrounding of the metropoli9,that Mrrmsrtv it alwavs in demand. The I r j - - - population grows at the rate of 50,000 a year. How then ean you expact a decline f The question of servants for the house hold is likely to receive renewed agita tion, in a short time, if what I hear is true. It is almost impossible to obtain desirable white help even by paying good wages and allowing the girls every reasonable liberty. A great many peo ple tried colored domestics, but good as many of the individual are, as a class they were found scarcely clean, honwt snd respectful enough to satisfy tbe demands of a thoroughgoing housekeep er. In California Chinese man eer vsntt havs been found to be model ser vants, elean, dutiful, industrious,honet and cheap. A campany is now forming te import a large number of trained Chinese household servants from tbe Pacifio tlope,and engage them to house holds. In every instance their eharao a ter is to be guaranteed, and in every case of any wro.ig doing tbe company will bold itself responsible for dams ge. TEMPERANCE DEPARTMENT.

Finally, dear sisters, msy I submit to you a plan which is tbe outgrowth of my special studies in thit trott eventful yesr. On the Pacific coast I felt tbe pulsstioo of tbe newest America which includes tbat true"Oarden of tbe Gods," California, with itt semi-tropic elimate, and invites not only Kurope but Asis to a seat in its banqueting hall. I looked into the mystic fsce of tbe Orient, tnd rejoiced in tbe breezy breath of Japan, the France, even as China it tbe England of tbe East Paci fic CMtt. I learned the magic trans formations in the civilization of Japan, it readiness to tske up Western customs and tbe consequent danger lest our vices become domesticated there. I visited the opium Jens of Sen Fran cisco snd was appalled by the degrada tion resulting from a poison habit which curses tbe victim more, but bit borne let, than does tbe frenzy of tbe alcohol dream. Mean wbilr. missionaries to tbe Orient assured me thst "aince tbe Crusade' s great temperance work is going on in the cities of India, China and Japan among tbe English-speaking population, and letters fiom our Con necticut President, Mrs. Treadwel),now traveling upon tbe ContinenrV Europe, assured me tbat leading pastors of Paris are anxious to have a W. C. T. U. organized in that metropolis of tbe whole world. I knew oor British cou sins across tbe line and acr s the sea would heartily co-operate in the move ment and so resolved to urge my sister to signal izi tbe epoch we rejoice in by the formation of an International W. C. T. l that sbsll belt tbe ,rlobe and join tbe Kist and West in an organized attack upon the poison habit of both hemispheres. We can do no more st this convention than to auth orize the initial step of such a move ment. For a year or two the work must be wholly carried on by corres pondence and through the press. Few bats as vet tbe international spirit. I found more of this class oa the otl.er Ot,at than here. These friend, better informed than we, and not at present , so enlisted in tempersnce work, will lasBBfjy aid in this tew end most' Calbolic endeavor. I suggest little! more u. ray man mat vne preauge Stl a . . - our great society lie ths fulcrum for t preliminary lift in this splendid enter prise. Beloved, we have given hostages, not to fortune, but to humanity. We are building better than we know. We stand not only for tbe cause of tern iter ance, bat for tbe diviner womanhood tbat thsll ere long bring in the era of "sweeter manners, purer laws." We a stand for tbe mighty forces which level up not do an, and which shall draw manhood up te woman' standard of purity in tbe personal conduct of life. We are tbe prophets of a time when the present fashionable frivolities of women and money worship of men shall find themselves confronted by Goi'a higher law of a complete human ity resulting from : T wo heads In counsel ; In beside the b earth Two In the noisy business of the world, Two la the liberal offlras ot life ; Two plum Diets 1 roppeU Te sound tbs ab, . of scienci a: 1 tbe secrets of the mnt.H For the world begins to see that : aMin r "nVs to bind, two souls are wrought, Where pa.

Let us follow with unchanged devotion tbe gleaming Cross of Him who is "holiest among the mighty and mightiest among the holy," een that loving Christ whose gospel raises wonts up, and with her lifts toward Heaven the World! "The com'aat deepens on ye brave !" Tbe battle is not your, but God's. SCIENTIFIC SfK.tr. Some of tbs doctors think they will soon be able to open a patient's head to examine his brain. It has been estimated that tbe force which the human heart expends in twenty-four hours is about equal to lifting 217 tons one foot. An Austrian chemist gives this re cipe for detecting false butter : Melt a Utile of the suspected srticle ; soak a wick iu it. When again solid, light it like a candle ; blow it out. If it smell of blewn-out candle.it is oleemagarine ; if of fresh butter, why, butter it is. The latest scientific) explorations of tbe Yellowstone Park, made during tbe past summer by members of the United States Geological Survey, show that it contains 590 geysers and 5,000 hot spring.

During the excavations undertsken in the Roman Forum, there baa been found a pot containing S00 eld Anglo Saxon coins of tbe time of Pope Mar ino II (882-884).
