First, to look It up in the Treasury vat !ts ; second todepomtltrathobankswitboutintetfSt; or. tmrd. to use it la the purchase of our bonds, not yet due. Tbe objection to the first mei nod was that the withdrawal ot so large a nm might result in a monetary stringency; ib seoonu ooviatea ins oojenuon ey allowing uw banks to pa: tho money in circulation ; bnt neither method resulted in any advantage tc tha Government. Aa to it, tha money waa dead; only the banks received interest for its use. By the third method the money would be retui neo to tho channels of trade, and the Government would make the difference between tha premi am paid for tha bond and the interest that tbe bi nds would draw If left ontstanains until tbey.taatnred. If a Government bond at the mar net rcemium is a good investment for a capita li st, who is free to use bis money aa be pleases, ran it be bad finance for the Government, baling mrmey that it cannot nss in any other way, to nss it in baying np its bonds?

Aa Answar the Democratla Assertion that Yt Is the Consuuicl'. Pjtmi thk Boston Commercial Bulletin, Her i is a lesson iu political economy for oar readeis as aasy as it is fundamental in its nntur.i. Freetraders generally, laoat tariff reformers, melm ing President Olevelnnd (iu bis message) positi rely assert that the amount Of the tariff on imports it, to Just that oxtont, a tax on tbe Amor can consumer. Some of tbrid assert that this 1 ix Is directly added to the price of the imported article, aa did President Cleveland, but tho mars moderate and intelligent Iree-traders conte it themselves with ths assertion that the tax 1 indiroctly borne in its fullness snd not direolly added to the price of the imported article. Wc shall endeavor to show tbfif the tariff tax borne by the consumer, either directly or indirectlj , is not tha full amount of duty. It nay be shown plainly enongb that the lax to tin full amount of tbe duty is not directly borne. For Instnnoe, the price of American stool rails is $20 per ton at tbe mill. The cor. responding cost of the samo staple in England is Jk 17s 6d, or say S18r3J; add to this 8.59 freigl: t, and wo have the cost hero ol '2l.i3. not InclU'llng tho $17 duty, or only i 7.3? less than the io t of American steel rails, and not $17 less, which would ha the fall amount of the duty. It sonnotbeso easily demonstrated that the full ti mount of the tariff is not iiidiraotly a tax on t 3 oustomer, because the ngurol do not apply ; I mt wo think it can be proven tatisf actor. ily. iisvertholoss, and in this way: Take as tbe first premise the general admission that our European compo ;ltors, and parti mlorly English nutnufactureit, are oxcoca i agly desirous of a reduction of pax import dutlui. Till e as the second premise tbe iissertlon so comi ran now, that import duties roald be rati not. i t without causing a loss ot industry from American workshops lo foreign soil. Acior.ling to these frao-lrado piemises tha conclusion comes that notwithstanding duties are t j be reduced, I he Americans wi U still bold their trade. But it the English munufaoturor beori nono of our import duties himself, either diroo.lyor indirectly, and tho American consumi r does bear tbe ontlre burden of tbo tax in one irayor tbe other, and if tbe En ;lieli manufaoturerrea'ly hj no hone of outline iuto the tradi already established an.1 held by Amoricant what reasonable and sufficient sxplonatiou remn ins for tho admitted anxiety of tbo English mau iiacturors to see rcdnceu import duties on this ride of the Atlantic C i any reason be conjc red np th it will com. meml itself to practical exporienoo and common sonB i as does tho obvious reason to tho proteo. tionlit, namely, that this anxiety on the port of the lorelga manufacturer to s o our import datii a lowered, arises from a dooply eberlsbed natural desire to escape in the conrwtitive race a ps.-t, or sometimes tho whole of our import dutlii. wlii. h the importer has to b-uuf himself ; aud, secondly, from a wall-based ho pe of greatly lucri asol Americau trado, due to Ihe 6huttbig down of American workshops to i, greater or less extent. Campaign Note?. Di MocnATtc talk about carrying such States ns Illinois and Michigan sounds ill o the whistling J( frightened men passing through a churchyard at the time when "ohnrohyordB yawn." W sen Cleveland In bis letter o ! acceptance said that tbe surplus was SISO.OOC .000 ho overstalid the f-vot by 22,009,000. and tb sro are vast apuiopriations made by Congress yot to be oravn, V hat not to believe : The f rco-tr do absurdities as to tbe prieo of American man ifaetnrod arti les in f jruign markets.

The following pretty incident of Gladstone is related ia one at our exchanges. About fifty Team ago several haulera were employed in carrrryinir pig iron from Brymbo to Queen's Ferry, Among the number -was one William Orilhtlis, who is stall alive. This rnftn, when fioing down 'linkerdale ono day with his load of iron, was accosted hy a stranger, who talked very freely with hiin. Among the questions, the stranger asked him how much per day he got for carrying the iron. "Six and sixpence," said the carter. "What weight have you on the cart?" "About a ton end a half." "And what do you pay for gates?" "Eighteen pence." "How much does it cost to keep the xnareV "Thirteen shillings a week." Present!? they reached the foot of the mill hill. "How are you going to get this up hill?" asked the stranger. "Oh, I mum get my ehuder and push hup "ere." "Ill help you a bit," said the stranger, and he at once put his shoulder to the cart and pushed up tho hill well. When they reached the top the hauler said, "You an' me 'as been as good as a chain 'orse." "Well, well," said tho stranger, aI don't know how tho poor horse's tegs are, but mine ache very much indeed. I suppose you cau manage now." "Yc s, thank you," said the hauler ; and wishing each other good day they separated. As soon as the stranger was gone a tradesman asked Griffiths if he knew who had been helping him. "No." said he, "I never seen 'im before." . "That was Mr. Gladstone," said the tradesman. "Mr. Gladstone!" exclaimed the hauler, "I dunno what 'e'll think o' me, then; for I never sird 'im nornothin'. Sure I thought 'e was some farmer hor somethin'." A Minneapolis Bible, "What a beautifully bound Bible!" said the new minister, calling on a Minneapolis family, "Yes," said tho lady of the house, "my husband don't do things in any plain-sheep manner. The best calf, with red morocco trimmings, ain't none too good for us. He had this bound especially for our own use." "Ah! very good. Very good. By the way, let me call your particular attention to a passage of Scripture this morning. Let me see. Why, what does this mean? This is an imperfect copy. The entire book of St Paul is loft out." "Certainly; that is my husband's idea." "Your husband's idoa! Why that is sacrilege." "Oh, not at all. This is an age of reason. My husband is a strong Minneajiolis man, and got this Bible up for homo reading in a Minneapolis lamily. This St. Paul racket has been running a little too strong lately." "Well, Pm amzed," "But we'ro liberal. We're charitable. We've Iwen contributing a heap of money to the foreign missions lately, but hereafter wo shall send it all to tho St. Paul heathen."

A Talo of the Alligator. One night a great uproar was heard in the honyard of Mrs. Morague, in the upper part of Polatka, Ma. Lanterns wore lit and two of the boys went out to in-reatigato. In the center of the jard wits found a half-grown 'gator, straggling to swallow a big goose. It had been nearly half swallowed, but the goose's strrggles. had bothered the naulian, and he appeared very much nonplussed and decidedly displeaied. When the rays of tho lantern were flushed, with the goose still held in his mouth ancl struggling wildly, he charged at the boys, and swept -Ilia tail mound with a tertian swish. The lads jumped just in time to avoid its force, but the lantern was hit, nhivering it into a thousand pieces. The boys aei'amb:led on two big kerosene barrels that were near by, that were used as bt.rrel ttinks, as they did not care 'o tackle a rr-ad 'gator in the dark. Hearing their cries a young lady who was visiting them from Georgia came o at with another light. The 'gator was still standing guard, but while his w eather eye was on his prisoners he has made good use of his time, for naught remained of the goose save a few feathers in the sauriau's mouth. - His expression seemed to say: "Goose was good; boys would bo better." The youngsters jumped for fence rails when ttiey secured a light, aad while the plucky young lady held tho light they dispatched the despoilerof their poultry yard. The 'gator was game, however, and he matte tbe boys step around pretty lively to avoid his flying tail. Odds were against him, and in ten or fifteen minutes he was a gono saurian. He measured nearly eight feet in length, the jaws having a width of three leet vrhen fully opened. The henyard was located ner a small creek -whioh ran through a swamp, which espl aired the reptile's pregecmce there. He probably was very hungry and forgot !ois usual timidity. At.

The Hin di Man of Old, An Eastern journal discourses on the 'lured man" of former times as follows: ' What an institution the hired man used to be in the days gone by! i. thoroughbred Yankee; not a drop oi imported blood in Ids veins; strong and lithe, and active and tireless, in. telligent, fairly wall educated, skilled in his business, and as a rule industrious beyond the belief of this teu-hoor generation. From the time he drove his ax into the wHd-pile in the door yard on the first day of April until the ;lose of the season after harvesting he oxpeoted to work mid he did work, not Jtrom sun to sun, but from dawn to darkless, and then did. the milking and fad iihe pigs afterward. His day was fourteen, fifteen, and even sixteen hours long, and it never occurred to him tbat jit should be shorter. He was no specialist. He could do anything, He '-was smart with a soy the, handy with, a :tioe, cute with a cradle, and ex perienced with an ax. Ha knew hoir' imuch gram and grass seed were required to the acre, when grass was fit to out, and when it was hayed enough to 'go in,' and he did not need to be told when to drop turnip seed in the corn:Seld, or how to put corn iu the shook. He could- build a wall, moke cider, -shingle a barn, make a hayrack, or doetor a sick hog. It was safe to leave him to work alone. And he got for his services $10, $12, possible $15 a month for eight months, and saved three-fourths of it. Then, whou he -had worked eight or ten seasons and accumulated a lew hundred dollars and probably married the 'hired girl,' who had been at work for $1 a week and saved half of that, bought a farm, got out of debt little by little, educated his children and sent them to the city to preach or to practice law or work in the store or shop, while he staid oil the old homestead. Eat with Comfort and Bo Happy. It io by no means uncortnJu. but., on the oontrury, a well-ascertained fact, that upon the weU being of man's stomach depends tbat modiown ot happiness which is vouchsafed to hlni in this world. Dyspepsia, the foe of all others to tha stomach's tranquillity, and most to be dreatlod, is a complaint to the preliminary relief and eventual cure of which Hostottcr s Stomach Bitters Is especially adapted. It enables those who nee it with a reasonable degree of persistencs to eat wtth relish, because it imparts a bealtlifol appetite :to dieeat with ease, because It strenittbens tbo stomach; and to assimilate the food which is eaten and digested, thus beneSUug health, promoting flesh und sustaining tbe exorcise ot tho physical and mental faculties. It, morevor, faciUtates tha secretion of healthy bile, actuates without discomfort tbe habitat tbe body, ami tends, when taken upon retiring, to jprodace healthy slaniber. Malnrta is conquered The French Soldier's Cat. During the Crimean war, a little cat, reared in his mother's cottage, followed a young French soldier when he left his native village. The lad's heart clnng to this small dumb member of his family, and he gave pussy a seat on his knapsack by day on the march and a comer of his conch at night. She took her meals on her master's knee, and was a general pet in the company. On the morning that his regiment was first ordered into action, the soldier bade his little cat farewell, and left her in charge of a sick comrade. Ho had marched about a mile from the camp, when what was his surprise to sen Miss Puss running beside him. He liftud her np on her usual seat, and soon the engagement commenced. Twice did the soldier fall, but the cat clung fast hold. At last a severe wound stretched him bleeding on the field. No sooner did pussy catch sight of the blood flowing from her master, 'then she seated herself upon his body, and began to liok his wound in the most assiduous manner. Thus she remained forsome hours, till the surgeon cc.me to the young lad, and had him carried otf to the tent of the wounded. When be recovered con sciousness, his first Question was "Shall I live?" "Yes, my good fellow," was! the surgeon s answer, monks to your little cat ; for if she had not used her tongue so intelligently, you would have been too exhausted by loss of blood to recover. Yon may be sure that pussy was well cared for; contrary to au regulations she was allowed tr) aooompany the young soldier to tho boiipitai, witere sue was regaled with the choicest morsels from his plate, and became a very distinguished choraoter.
