In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered Hver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is •ne of tbe most ‘complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of order. Greasy food, tou h food, sloppy fisod. bad sooksry, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have mads the American pec pie a nation of dyspeptics. But Green’s August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business aud making the American people se healthy that they can enjoy tbeir meals and be happy Remember:- No happiness without health. But Green’s August Flower brings health aDd happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five oents.

ASHINGTON AND HIGH TARIFF.

At Detroit a choice collection of congenial spirits turned the celebration of Washington’s birthday into a high-tariff hurrah. The yery first’speaker, Senator Hawley, of Connecticut, spoke to the toast, “Washington, the Protectionist.” He declared that Washington was a prot ctionist. “He was made so,” the senator is reported b have said. “He took Alexander Hamilton as his secretary—a man whosa addresses *re to this day text-books of protection.” And more to like effeet. Congressman Cannon, of Illinois, discoursed of “Washington the Farmer.” In the course of his remarks he turned to the representatives of the press and, in the elevated and classical style for which he is noted, said: “Now, you newspaper boys. I’ll give you a scoop. Cleveland is going to send in another message to retrieve the errors of the f reewool message.” Both of these great statesmen knew that General Washington was a protectionist, and no doubt the Illinois statesman was sure that he was in favor of a big tax» n wool. But neither of these statesmen adduced any facts going to show about how much of a protectionism President Washington wa« and how much of a protectionist was his secretary, Alexander Hamilton, whose addresses ere to-day textbooks of protection. Since they she lno light u that subject, suppose we look at the record. First take wool. The “father of the house” and the high-priest of the high-tariff hierarchy has called the first tariff of the United States, that of July 4,1789, tariff. Under that tariff unmanufactured wool was free of ail tariff t x. It was in the list of enumerated free goods. Ali unenumerated articles were dutiable at the uniform rate of 5 per cent., and among those articles were manufactures of wool, excepting readymad) clothing, which was subjected to a duty of 7i| per cent. Wool remained on the free list until 1824. Duties on manufactures of wool were increased from time to time, but nev r exceeded 15 per cent, until 1812, when, with all other duties, they were doubled to raise means for prosecuting the second war with Great Britain. Wool was free until twenty-five years after the death of Washington and twenty years after the death of Hamilton, and during their lives the duties on manufactures of wool did not exceed 12| per eent. Compare that with our present duties, equivalent to 87 per cent, on raw wools and 67 per cent, on manufactures, and see how far we hav -> departed from the practice of Washington and the author of our text-books of protection. Now take some other articles. On cut, hoop, slit, rolled, or hammered iron the“ Washington tariff” act laid a duty of 74 per cent.; on cables and chains, 75 cents per cWt; on manufactures not specially provided for, 5 per cent Our present duties are equivalent to 38 per eent, varying all the way from 11 to 122 per cent. On all glass an* glassware the duty was 10 per cent.; present average, over 65 per cent. On stone and china ware the Washington tariff was 10 per cent.; present average 58 per cent But it is not necessary to go further into details. Suffice it to say that the Washington tariff averaged about 8| per cent on dutiable goods, while the present tariff averages about 47 per cent. It would hardly seem, therefore, that the statesmen who talked at Detroit on the 22d were warranted in attempting to drag in the names of Washington and Hamilton in support of a 37 per cent, tax on wool cud a 47 per cent, general tariff. It would hardly seem that it w*s

FORGIVE AND FORGET.

George W. Libby, in a communication from Washington to Vha Richmond (Va.) Dispatch, in regard to the proposed transfer of Libby prison from Richmond to Chicago, writes: “I would not like to see the old house removed as around it clusters some of the fondest memories of a happy youth and early manhood, but if it is to be carried to Chioago and converted into a museum whose walls are to be decorrted with scenes and incidents relative to the prison, I could furnish a pen-picture from facts which, if faithfully portrayed on canvass, should have a conspicuous place among them. It is this: “An old gray kairtd man (whose only offense against the United States government was in havng a prison named after him by accident, and a son in the confederate army) being carried through the streets of Boston handcuffed, followed by a jeering, hooting crowd; also my mother, aunt and sister, the last with a nursing babe in her arms —conducted to the alms house in Norfolk, Va., by a colored guard with drawn sabres. But I am now a loyal citizen of the United States and think shch scenes and incidents should be forgotten.”

We take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the following extract from a letter to the Eldredge Manufacturing Go., Chicago, written by an English dealer in Sewing Machines: Gents: I have telegraphed you this day to send on as quickl / as possible 50 No. 2 tables and covers. I find I shall be out of these much sooner than the other styles. The stands and heads you can send at earliest convenience.

I am very much pleasgd to say that these last hundred machines are highly satisfactory. For finish, smoothness and easy running, 1 really believe they are unequalled by any other Sewing Machine selling in this country. The machines require less preparation for delivery than any other machines I have handled during the whole course of my experience extending over 20 years. Yours Truiy,

Mrs. J. W. McEwen is agent for these machines in this county.— Call and see them before purchasing elsewhere.

One Equalizes the Other.— Protecting manufactures with cue hand and raw materials with the other is such a travesty of common sense that the human mind recoils in the effort to grasp it Protection had been going thirty-five years in this country before any-

When Spring Comes tih u, ipaai I r look at the end of winter; Why is it that of two horse blankets which look and feel equally well one won’t wear at all, and the other wears well ? This % Trade Marlc,^Horse Blankets which are strong and have a reputation are always imitated in poor qualities which look like them, but having fewer warp threads are not as strong. Some dealers buy these poor imitations for a few cents less and by saying they are “just as good,” sell them at the same price as the strong blankets to parties who do not know the difference. You cannot tell whether horse blankets are strong by the look or feel, as the warp threads do not show on the face. How then are you to know? In order that you can tell a strong blanket from a weak one, the manufacturer of S/ A Horse Blankets sews the above S/ A Trade Mark inside of each blanket. This is a guarantee that it is the strongest blanket made for the money and will wear well. Many poor imitations have been sold as S/ A blankets. Remember none are genuine unless the Trade Mark is sewed inside.
