The wise man now talks taritF reiluctioa and plants his “garden sass" seed.
If it was generally understood by the colored people that “Water melons grow wild in Africa, and are al ways in season,” their rush for colonization there would be most frantic. Tbe assertion is made by an African explorer that the above state ment in regard to water melons is absolutely true. It is astonishing how the minds of Republican newspaper editors run in the same channel. We have noted published as an original editorial paragraph in some thirty-two Indiana Republican newspapers, tbe following : “While Congress is wrangling over tarill’ schedules the country is going to the dogs.” A strange coincidence in deuced foolish foolishness.
