As Bad as Brother Marshall. —“lf the consumer pays the tax,” why do British manufacturers clamor for relief “from the Amer* lean tariff.- Montice’loßerald. The American tariff is to a great extent prohibitory in its oprations. The American “consumer” who might prefer British manufactures of certain grades at a fair price is not willing to pay the price he could get them for abroad and in addition the duty levied at our custom houses when landed here. The British manufacturers com* plain of a tariff wlrcli, while it prevents the American ‘consumer’ from purchasing abroad at the same time compels him to buy at exorbitant ra + es, made possible by the tariff, of home manufacturers. If the ‘consumer’ buys an article ©f foreign manufacture the tax he |P» goes into the U. S. Treasury; pile buys a home-made article, price he pays, far exceeding cost |£f ptoduction and fair profits goes prto the pockets of the home manpMterers. Owners oi the pro|pri• ot labor alone reap the beof the ianff; labor itself

gets none of it. For one to doubt, at this day, that the ‘consumer’ pays the tax, is svmptomic of ‘softening nf the brain.’ Soak your head, Bruce.

It is the duty of the county commissioners at every regular session to visit the poor asylum and examine into its management, etc. The commissioners of|Jasper county at the June term improved upon that plan by appointing a committee to peform that duty.— We are not informed as to the compensation to be allowed at the expense of the taxpayers.

The result of the republican conventions held Wednesdav, in this district is as follows: For Circuit Judge—Hon. R p. Hammond, or. Jasper county. Circuit Prosecutor—J. T. Brown of Benton county. Senator—Wm. W. Gilman, of Newton county. Representative—Rob’t Parker, of Jasper county. The nomination of Judge Hammond makes the prospect of securing a democratic candidate in op position improbable. As against the other candidates, with good men end wise management, the Democrats have a fighting chance.

An attempt was made last Sunday evening to burn she residence of H. Wils. Porter, during the absence of the family at church. The window screen was cut and a match applied to the lace curtain which was entirely consumed. The brussels carpet, being of wool, was scorched, and not being in* flamable, saved the property from destruction. It is to be hoped the scoundrel who did the deed will yet to discovered and punished.

S. Senate, recently, praying, sarcastically, that all ex-soldiers over one hundred years old shall have a pension of $2 a month.
