SOMK OVKlihOOKKl) QUOTATIONS. Mr. Urookshire. in liis late speech in the House, had the elerk read a passage from Prof. Perry's work on Political Economy. While quoting from this noted free trade author's work he ought to have given the following:

It was a lending point in the colonial policy to discourage all attempts of the colonists to manufacture for themselves. That the country which was the home of the beaver might not manufacture its own hats, no man in the colonies could be a hatter or a journeyman at that trade unless he had served an aprenticeship of seven years. No hatter might employ more than two apprentices. No American hat might be sent from one plantation (colony) to another. America abounded in iron ores of the best quality as well as wood and coal: but slitting mills, steel furnaces and plating forges to work with tilt-hammer were prohibited in the colonies as nuisances. Similar restrictions existed as to wool and wearing apparel. So fully were Hritisli statesmen trammelled by the idea of this colonial system that Lord Chatham himself, the best friends the colonists had in England, did not hesitate to say from his place in Parliament, that in a probable contingency he would prohibit the colonists from manufacturing even a hob-nail or a horseshoe. And at a later period Lord Sheffield said the only use of American colonies is the monopoly of their consumption and the carriage of their produce.

The next time Mr. Urookshire sits down to read from Prof. Perry's Political Economy, we trust his eyes may fall on the foregoing-passage and that he may be able to sec that England is animated by the same spirit to-day when she works so zealously to have all restrictions removed so she can sell her manufactures in our market. She would to-day, if she could, prevent us from manuracturing even a hob-nail or a horseshe, and Mr. Urookshire and his party would help her to do it.

There is another passage in Prof. Perry's work, from wiiicli Mr. Urookshire quoted, to which we respectfully call his attention. Tt is this:

The Whig party coming into power passed what I shall call the Whig tariff of 1842. It was ahigh protective tariff. Under it millions of capital were seduced into manufactures. particularly of iron, and when the high duties were abolished, as they were a few years later, hundred* and thiu.iunds of men were pcuiiiitrlly ruined.

Mr. Urookshire and his party ars steadily voting to bring about a repetition of this calamity to the industries of the country. They want to see hundreds and thousands of persons pecuniarily ruined again to gratify the greed of England and the malice of those who have always hated our manufacturers. While Prof. Perry is a great free trader, he won't lie to sustain the cause, lie states facts with amazing fairness. Hut Mr. Urookshire will never state them.

rj«l'0RT10N-AI. KKI'Itl-.SENTA-TION l-Oll SMAI.L CITIES. The Boston Herald thinks that the system of proportional representation might be introduced with advantage in the smaller towns of Massachusetts, and incorporated in the charters of newly-creat-ed cities. The Worcester Hoard of Aldermen, which is Republican, rejected recently a proposition to provide a minority representation in that body. In large cities wherj the political parties are strongiy intrenched it would be difficult to effect the change, but the suggestion of the Jlnrald that a beginning might be made in the smaller places not dominated so thoroughly by the politicians, is worthy of consideration.—lndiniapiliii Sewn.

Tub result of the first election in New Zealand after suffrage was conferred upon women is highly favorable to the extension of this reform. The United States consul at Auckland mad«! his report on this subject as follows: 1 went around all day from one polling precinct to another, and I am pleased to record the fact that I was agreeably surprised to notice the cool and deliberate manner in which they discharged their functions as enfranchised citizens. Throughout the day the utmost good order prevailed. Not a drunken man was seen during the voting hours. Women were engaged in canvassing, as were the men, and they proved themselves formidable antagonists to many of the old time electioneering agents. Some of the ward politicians looked with contempt on the efforts of the women, but next morning woman's power was shown- to a marked degree. The women had voted for men of the highest moral, social and political integrity, many of whom were not always conspicuous for ability, experience or education. Women have always shown at the ballot box that they are capable of resenting injury and punishing an enemy. Many of those who talked loudest and longest in Parliament against the extension of the franchise were quietly permitted on election day to retire indefinitely from political life. Altogether the results of woman's first vote in politics of thir country appears to have given satisfaction, with the natural exception of a few disappointed politicians for whom she did not vote and possibly the brewery interests.

A DEBT MAKING I'ARTY. Secretary Carlisle's bond sale of $50,000,000 does not bring with it that

amount of relief that was expected when the issue was first proposed. The most careful estimate of the deficiency, now so rapidly growing, is $86,000,000. The «aly co«rM aetiaa

left to meet the existing embarrassments it for Congress to speedily authorize the sale of additional bonds for the immediate requirements of the treasury. Unless this is done the roserve fund will again have to be drawn upon. The reluctance of the Democratic majority to come to the aid of the government is well understood. After passing a bill through the House for the reduction of revenues, they do not care to make the evidently inconsistent record of borrowing money to meet the shortage produced by their political measure. The Republicans are fully alive to the situation, and, while willing to aid in every legitimate step taken to protect the credit of the Nation by maintaining the gold reserve, they will not sanction the revenue-reducing and money-bor-rowing policy of the Democratic party.

Onk of the Republican mass meetings at Indianapolis to protest against Mayor Denny enforcing the charter in regard to civil service was attended by exactly sixty persons outside of office seekers. It is about time the Republicans of Indianapolis who vote for principles and not for spoils were holding a mass meeting to commend Mayor Denny for his bold stand in favor of law enforcement.

TUB MAGAZINES.

Harper's Jiazar published January 20 contained a story by Miss Mary E. Wilkins, called "A Devotee of Art.'" with an illustration by W. 11. Hyde. "The-mau that-draws the Handcart"' is the curious title of an article by Dr. Edward Eggleston in Harper's Magazine for February. The name was originally, given by the Indians of tho Northwest to George Northrup, a famous scout and hunter. Dr. Eggleston in the article pays an interesting tribute to a wellnigh forgotten hero.

Governor Tillman, of South Carolina, has prepared an article for the February number of the Nvrlh American Tieview on "The South Carolina Liquor Law," in which lie gives a brief history of the origin and workings of what is known as the Dispensary Law, under which all liquors containing alcohol are "dispensed" or sold by State officers.

Patriotic Arneiicansof limited means will be glad to learn that their favorite magazine. Jiliie and dray, (Philadelphia) has been reduced to ten cents a copy instead of twenty-five cents as formerly. This change of price takes effect with the February issue, the first edition of which is one hundred thousand copies. If the publishers keep up their existing standard of excellence, it is hard to see how they can fail to rcach the quarter of a million copies for which they are striving.

The article on "National Budgets, American and European" in the February lievicw of Ilcvlews contains some compact information as to amounts and sources of national incomes, and the different items of outgo, which may be of convenience to many at this time. The following subdivisions of the article will suggest its character:

Reactionary storms will be central on the Ed and 3d, and the moon will be new on the 5th. This will cause a continuation of cloudiness, with rain, sleet and snow, through most of the intervening time from the 7th to lltli. Heavy rains with thunder and lightning, turning to destructive sleet and snow storms, may be expected during these disturbances. The reactionary disturbances, due on the 2d and 3d, will not likely be reached until about the 5tli. A sweeping cold wave will separate these perturbations from the disturbances of the period beginning about the 7tli, but it will soon give place to storm conditions, and during the 7tli to 11th, storms of rain and snow will visit all parts of the coun
