The his broken hearted mothi-r ami disgraced father luve a practical demonstration of the wrong that they did to their boy in allow ing him to have his own way. 2. There is the boy or young man who knows it all. He has no superior in any department of knowledge. He knows more than his futlier. mother, teachers, or any one else. Indead it is astonishing how much be does know, until it comes to the test of examination Even then he knows the teacher Is mistaken. And so it is every where, ut all times, and on all subject... lie knows he is right, and doe not care.wliat other ay or think. 3. There is another, who thinks be is "smart." His mother or some one else lia. told him so. ami be believe it. He gives what lie consider smart answer to'iucstiotu and then looks to see how they take u in class or wherever they are mode. He some times tries to make a display of his smart new by trying to puzzle his teacher. It may 1 wicked in me. but 1 confess it does me good to have a toy try that game on me If the class doe not ami out now smart be is. it is not my fault. 1 do not mean how- ever that 1 do not wish student- t ,i-k iuestiou.

Nmv Youk, Nov-puiber24th, IS93. Wrho is Richard Crokrr? Such a question would denote ignorance, if asked in this locality. If eer there was a man who achieved supremacy, through tils own audacity, it is 'I)ick" Croker. In a few word; the life of the Tammany chieftan can be told. Born in Ireland in 1813, he came to New York City in lbM. Attended the public school, moreo less, from 1S52 to 18541. From 1866 to 18tfJ he worked in the machine shop ol the Har lem railroad. About 1800 he became prominent as the best "rough and tumble" fighter of the twenty-first ward. Imrir.g l86ti "Dick" as he waa common ly called, defeated Richard Lynch at a -Sunday prire fight, in Jones ' Wood. His political aspirations became apparent, about the time he held the distinction of being "tie boss scrspper," and in 1807 be waselecied Alderman from the Eight eenth Assembly district Then began his forward move among the lowest classes of politicians, in the city, aud in 1873 tie was elected Coroner. A year ater he wa indicted (or the mnrder of James McKeuoa. who in a bar room iUfellce, ritn certain city officials, was brought to bear in his favor, and after a short confine ment in the city prison, Coroner Croker was released, as "the charge was not prove!.. I8i than two years alter the murder scandal, Croker was re-nominated for Coroner an J agan elected in spite of the stain with which he was be smirched. Rut in 1870 he met his first, and perhaps thus far, his only defeat. When nominated for a third term a Coroner he waa defeated. He received a nomination for Alderman in 1KS3 and im mediately afier his eleclion he was ap pointed Fire commissioner by Mayor lirant. It was in that Croker was chosen as the leader of Tammany Ha'l, an' event that has transpired to be a sad thing for the city of New York. In IW this genius of a pugilist and a'l around politician, was appointed city chamber lain He had scarcely entered upon hi duties, when he resigned, as he found, the work too arduous, and perhaps not as interesting as the prize ring In the meantine Croker deroona:ra-ed that cleverness, which has since character ized his actions in all his manipulation, by building up an organization in Tam many Hall, which rivaled in discipline the great armies of Europe, and gained unlimcd power in the city of sew York. It waa at this period, that the notorious "big four" combine was formed. Mayor U rant, "Hickory face Tom" Gilroy, the present mayor, but then Commissioner of Public Works, and Police Commis sioner James J Martin were taken in as side pat nets by Boas Croker. When Mayor .rant's term expired in ISJO, a committee consisting of the most prorn i en: batinesa men in the community, called upon Mr Croker and urged him to select m reputable lawyer or merchant to succeed Oram Croker flatly refused to listen to such "rot," and furthermore said that he did not wants business man 0 the office. Ttiat fettled it, the Czar ol Gotham had refused and the people had to accept "Tom" Udroy, whether be was their choice or not. As Commissioner of Public Works, ti'lroy managed lo 'wora" the public much to the delight of the favored contractors, and the com bine of which he was a part. The profits derived from "behind the throne ' of Tammany Hall, occupied by Croker, be gan to shorr their enormity, when last year. "Mr' t roker paid lix.'.i'.vcaah lor several high classed race horse. This inaugurated Croker's turl career, which has been widened to rough tbe advice ot Mike" Dwver, the famous plunger and owner c I race horse, lie bought a tarm to K teheed Spring? .a fashionable rfcsort, lor f lOO.iW, and a residence in the city for tSS.OOO. Not many months ago, tbe political dictator paid 230,000 for a breeding farm near Nashville The question ante ar.d still remains to be answered, here aid- i-roker gel au tne shekels' Perhaps (be mt available way to reply 10 Ui query, would be to ask another qoes'ion. tVhat is he in politics for? 1 it not time that this abuser ot municipal privileges, end despot was "turned down?" Not since tbe time of Tweed and Kelley haa thia city been so froogly held in the grasp of a monstrous "ring'' as it is today by thia pcwerhtl organization, under the dictation of one man and one boss. Every department of the city govern ment, is at his mercy and he reaps the money which the poor pay for "pro teet'on" aud "influence.'' The result o he last election in this state, demon strated the fart that ring rule is doomed. In Brooklyn ihe came state ot affairs ex isted as they do in New York, but the people bare demoralized the noiorous ring which has misgoverned acd terror ized the city of churches for to many years.

Mr Ureckinridge, one of the members ? the ways and means committee explains the new lanff bill as follows: "The revenue difficulty, caused by the recent panic, is temporary only, and it will doubtless lie provided for by it temporary expedient We cannot generalize on this but taking matters at a more normal sta'e, it may be said that we must provide for 160,000,000. or possibly les-,. in wavs not expressed in the new tariff. This will follow very soon, in time to lie incorpo rated with the present bill. Hut as this is not expected to lie cf a character to ma terially affect manufacture or trade, and as tne people were extremely anxious to know what propesed doing in regard to the tariff, we concluded to make tbe new bill public a soon a it was finally com- ple'ed. To a very great extent we have subs' it ntcd ad valorem for specific doties This seem indispensible if we are to equalize tbe tariffs and the hurdens of Ihe people. Many of the irregularities which an eerTsrr-4-trr swifcfwer Tbe admin - isfrative tariff law have found approval far more than was expected, and it is believed that tbe few changes proroeed ar in accord with experience and will meet with general support. , " We have struck out from ihe tariff all those fea'ure that distinguished it a a 'combine' and placed what 1 usually known a .aw materials,' such a wool, coal. Iron ore. wood, and tbe like, on the free list . A few chemicala are added to the free list, and the cruder forms of man ufactures, such a pig iron and similar article, are greatly redoced frcm thei present high rate of duties. We refuse th extraordinary protection that is now given to transportation; that is, we do not grant rate that wiii enable an article, especially a crude or bulk article, that is produced in one part of our vast country to overcome the coat of transportation tc remote locali ties, beyond the range cf its reasonable or natural market. The present tariff iaUs make the most of such articles oppressive to both the remote and reasonably near-by localities, whi a less rate will relieve both people, and as consumption Increase, when extortion is prevented, tbe trade will be maintained, if. indeed, it be not greatly improved. "With free raw materia! and the tari stripped of its most odious and oppressive hatures, we give to consumers and pro ducers a' ike a larger field far the employ ment of labor, better retsrn ar.d a more abundant participation in the re rani and comforts of life." Mr Breckinridge illustrated by referring to tbe wool schedule, where, with free raw material, the speciSc or compulsory duties were taken off. Under the old system, yarns, worth not orer 40 cents, were taxed rJO or Fi per cent. I'n-ler the new bill they went pu: down to :5 per cenL He continued: "On clothes, shawl, knit fabrics, etc the rate now is from 7 per cent oa costly good to 1 40 and H- per cent on cheaper good. Of -jurse. the rate is much higher on still cheaper good. We reduce and equalise this by making it 30 per cent. Oa blanket, Lais of wool and flannel for un derwear, tbe present rate is from I to 104 per cent, and on other grade ctaU higher and prohibitory . We make them from to 'S per cent- Women's and children' dress (roods are now taxed from c4 to 1O0 per cent; we make them 40 per cent ad valorem, un ready-made clothing the tax ! now is from 2 per cent to a prohibition of imports A'e make it 45 per cent. Car pet we reduce all along the line. 1 addition to this it is provide I that oa the woollen schedule, except carpets, there shall come off 1 per cent every year for five years. This will bring a!! these duties 5 per cent sower in tbe scale, in other words, what is left at 95 per cent wtd become 30 per cent. ec. Tbi is left temporarily in order to give our woolen manufacturers time and opportunity to become accustomed to the use of foreign wools."
