Parliament has defeated the bill authorizing cremation in Great Britain; but the sentiment In favor of this mode of disposing of the dead has grown ao rapidly that In all probability It will be authorized before many years. An English court recently decided that cremation was no offense against the law, and at least one crematorium has been built and operated.
The Philadelphia Record has just closed its seventh year under the present management, which is the only real management It ever had. When Mr. Slngerly took hold of it. the circulation was 5,200, and It had neither reputation nor character. Last year Its average circulation was 106,125, only exceeded by two dallies in the country. This magnificent success has been reached purely and simply because it was deserved. A strong, comprehensive, clean, honest and exceptionally well edited paper has been made, and this Is the result. It is read in every state and territory, and the effect of 1U teachings will be powerful and lasting. The Record probably has the completest plant In the eoaatry, not only making Its •wn paper, but grinding the pulp used In the peper, having built a mill for that purpose at a coat of $130,$00. Its building Is one of the most conspicuous In Philadelphia.
The spring forest Urea have broken out earlier than usual this year, and they are more to be deplored than ever, for the supply of Umber le lees now than It was In 1833; and Indeed le approaching the famine limit. The causes of these yearly fires are difficult to discover, and still more difficult to prevent, but doubtless la many, if not in meet cases they are fine to the sparks from locomotives. It would pay the owners of forest tracts to denude a space, say one hundred yards wide, ob each aide of a line of a railroad. As for the fires occasioned by the verdant hunter and fisher from the city, they seem to be central. Perhaps it would be Wise, to view of tho increasing searaity of valuable woodlands, for every state to have a system of forestry laws, with foteat officers to preserve them, alter the German fashion. Something of this kind has been attempted, we beUeve, In Maine, and, perhaps, in MeaearTmicitti The Journal tn a forcible article on “Why Jaw le In Contempt,” saya:

Logan, Edmunds and Sherman, but tho Blaine and Arthur hoodoo has been the noisiest and most peetHent May ws ask to what purpose has been this concourse of sound, all jangled out of tone? We pace by the base and venal one of becoming “solid with the next administration," because a newspaper Is a power which no administration can help or hinder. It can not be that any editor dreamed that this wild hurrah for one or other of the chieftains pleased all ita readers, for admittedly the rivals rub each other closely, and the circulation of a good newspaper is too catholic to be confined to Blaine or Arthur men. Has it been the result of a misapprehension of the purpose for which A newspaper exists, and for which Ita readers purchase It? Has It entered the editorial soul to aspire to the role of president maker? If so let us assure our ambitious cotemporaries that their labor has been in vain. Every delegate to Chicago will act nader directions from constituents, or from motives of personal profit, or under influences of personal like or dislike, or from (la a few cases) Intelligent conviction of the wants of the count* y, or under the wild Impulse that sway* popular assemblies. Not one of them will be able to morrow, much less at the time of assembly, to give a resume of the statistics wnich this paper has furnished In favor of Blaine, or that one for Arthur. All that can be now predicted Is that there are more delegates Instructed or pledged for Blaine and Arthur than for any other two gentlemen. But behind them Is the field; perhaps the flood. “77//? HE8T 8KXTIMEXT OF THE TIME." At last the Iceberg has cracked. The tariff is ftIrly and clearly out of party limits. It la not only true that many, and some of the beat and most largely circulated, republican newspapers are advocates of reform, but a republican convention has fully and honestly pronounced for the gospel of revision and reduction. This ts a plank in the platform of the republicans of the Third congressional district of Massachusetts: Resolved, That the leading new issue confronting the statesmanship of the present day Is the question of reducing the surplus revenue of the government; that the reoublican party should recognize and put itself in accord with the best eontlmeat of the lime on this question, and advocate in its national platform an Immediate reduction of the present tariff and an increase of the free list with a view to reducing the revenue. Now It cannot be too clearly understood that protection, If much longer continued, means free whisky. The revenue must be decreased, from the simple reason that it is new many millions in excess of even extrav agant public expenditure. It is collected in only two ways: first by tariff duties on elothee, blankets, cutlery and hundreds of ether neceesary articles; secondly by taxes and duties on the manufacture of whisky, brandy, other Intoxicants, and tobacco. It is proposed by the friends of protection to continue the tariff and abolish the internal revenue system. To make the comforts and necessities of life costly, and vice free, and the acqulrrment of dangerous stimulants cheap. Seeing this, the republicans of the third district of Massachusetts advise their national leaders "to put themselves In accord with the best sentiment of the time.” The next day the Massachusetts republican state convention resolved: VTe advocate tariff laws which, while furnishing the necessary revenue, shall favor the labor and Industrial enterprise of the country and not assail them, while we insist upon a reduction ef customs duties because of the dangerous surplus In treasury receipts. This is certainly remarkable,perhaps enough so to justify the New York Times In dealaring Jt a revolution. It shows that any attempt to put the republican party lu the attitude of an advocate and defender of the protective principle will be fatal to It. A par which has advocated protection as a temporary measure cannot turn and, with Jucfge Ke.Ty and his school, adopt it as a permanent pol’cy without driving voters enough Irom It to defeat it overwhelmingly ’and destroy all Ita hopes for the future. These remarks of the Times will be read with Interest: Tariff reform movement in Massachusetts is the beginning of the end of the policy of express protection of the United States. Of this there can be no doubt when the events which led up to the movement and the circumstances surrounding It are concerned. Massachusetts was, only a few years since, the stronghold of protection, and the votes of Its representatives and senators could be counted on to resist any serious reduction In protective taxes. The vague though strong dissatisfaction with the tariff, which brought about the revision of last year, found hut little manifestation in that state, and the revision was generally conceded to be most delusive with reference to the Industries of Massachusetts, and to have been much influenced by ncr manufacturers. Had the feeling of the business men of the state rmiained unchanged there was every reason for resolute Inaction at the present time, because, In the absence of positive popular support, the tariff reform legist* tion In congress must fall of either immediate or remote effect. Like inaction was dictated by every consideration of ordinary political prudence. The democracy are divided as to the reform, and the republicans, to all appearances, throughout the unioBj are onltea and consolidated In their opposition to it. But this la the moment selected by some eight hundred ol the men prominent In business and in public life In Massachusetts to organise a movement to cut down the surplus sad for "decisive action looking to the ultimate abandonmenrof the policy of
that It la shared by men of ai&nding in both parties, is distinctly political. Its Intent la to brtog.to bear on congress the Influence of an aroused and enlightened public opinion, and that Influence will unquestionably be expressed to vows. The mep who have undertaken this task are practical, expe rienced, sagacious, and to the lastdegreeln They are of the claw whS, not bound by party tta, recognise the value of party agencies, and with them men seeking political honors In Massachusetts will have to reckon. Thai are some of them students of political economy; their president, Mr. Charles Francis Adams, jr., Is a free trader; but they are not theorists alone, nor closet students, bat shrewd, capable and full of energy. Mr. Adams and Lewett SaltonataU, John M. Forbes aid Charles Theodore Russell, President Seel ye and Frederic O. Prince, Henry H. Faxon and Frank W. Bird, Joseph 8. Ropes and P. A. Collins, these are names of republicans and democrats whom every one familiar with Massachusetts politics will recognise as powerful advocates and formidable foes in any political contest. They come from the odd organizations which for years have been waging war with each other, and on common ground form a new force for the attainment of well-defined objects by explicit means. Their action la the strongest possible evidence of the existence of a welldeveloped popular opinion and the surest guarantee that that opinion will make Itself felt In the political contests of the near future.
A Great Business. Not many years have passed since alligator skin was tanned as a novelty. Now, however, it la a necessity, and there are at least a dozen firms tn this country engaged exclusively in tanning alligator hides. It has been estimated that 400,000 alligators were killed during 1833 in order to supply the demand for leather.
GOTMLAM GOWF. Yandnrbflt Want* «• Wunstet BwggMttonn. Preferring t* WmUmrm His Own ~ _ m pqmnm OarCen and ....— >1 Paca Painters. N*W Tom, May l.-WOlis* H. Vanderbilt often declares tuat he has retired tram active boston—; that tbs Wall street schemas for stock devilment are never his; that he Is engaged In the mere keeping of wealth, and with no great concern about making any more of tt; and, to ahert, he make* ft appear in print very frequently that hit enfy manipulation of securities consist* to cutting off the coupons. These reposts are believed by scarcely anybody, so skeptical are we Americans regarding the professions of our millionaires; and I am Informed that not wily is V anderbilt’s daily mail burdened by letters proposing business ventures in which he ceuM risk capital, but that men manage by device to get into his presence for the purpose of stating their cases. If they do It In a few quick wards, they derive from the visit all the satisfaction implied in the knowledge that they have made the ■**■ of moaey hear them—and no more, for he says no with great directness. I am assured by a person sear to him in a financial way that he never makes any investment that he knows to have be er advised to him. He ttkea a pride In evolving his own ideas on such subjects, and he will not accept ether folks’ If he la aware of it. If the notion is successfully put into his mind it must be dose covertly, ao that It may eeem original to him. I do not know that the managers of this week's pedestrian race would have won him even if they bad played In the cautious manner requisite, but it is certain that they were frank, and that they failed. The Madison Square Garden is owned by Vanderbilt’s Harlem railroad company. The rental varies with the presumed ability of the tenant to pay much or little. It has usually been ten thousand dollars for a week of a great footrace, while fifteen hundred will get It for the several days covering a ball and the preparations. When the present race was projected the wane of the sport’s popularity was considered, and it was decided that the former sum could not be afforded, especially as it was feared that the authorities—influenced by the acuteness of the Roosevelt reform In the city government —would not let the excise law be disobeyed. The sale of intoxicants is forbidden in New York between the morning hours of one and five now. The Sunday night of a race’s outset always crowds the immense building, and keeps it eo until breakfast lime scatters the people to their homes on Monday morning. Thirst begins to rage early, and the sale of beer, over a bar four hundred feet in length is enormous. The exclusive privilege for this traffic usually sell* at a very high figure, and in the current'Instance a brewer was ready to pay two thousand dollars for the week, provided he could have a guarantee of uninterrupted business throughout the first night; falling in which, ho would demand a heavy rebate. This point was carried by an agent to Vanderbilt in person, and an offer made to him to take a thousand dollars’ worth at the risk. ‘‘So you want mo to go partners with you in opening a beer bai?” he angrily explained. I will net quote the emphatic expletives with which he embellished his refusal. Bat he would have lost nothing more tangible than self respect by compliance, because the How of beer was not hindered by the police. It is not often that women of refinement in New York can pleasurably witness athletic sports, though they usually have a keen liking for contests in which men are muscularly antagonized. I noticed that, when Barmun’s show was here, a boxing match between two big fellows commanded pretty m arly all of the female gaze, though at the same time there were nine other things goirg on in the several ring*. One side of the Madifon Square Garden was reserved for women and their escorts, and on the opening Sunday night there were not less than a thousand real and imitation ladies iu the gathering, all of whom watched the midnight start of the pedestrians with eager In teres'. It was curious to see the real qualities of these women aerert themselves unmhtakatly. The most sensitive withdrew at the first tobacco smoke that was watted tbelr way from the cigars tn the other parts of the home; and hundreds who had borne ibe tmudge with equanimity lied from the presence of the earlier drunken men whom the heavy sale of beer developed about one o’clock. The final remnant of respectability in petticoats departed on seeing the beginnings of revelry on the part of members of their own sex. If there Is anything more shocking than an inebriated woman in the e.tesof a man, it is that same creature to a woman: and these Bacchanalians were all dressed fashionably, and had an hour before been decorous in demeanor. By three o’clock there was not a sober woman visible, and before daylight the boxes were strewn with incapables. There were men enough in the same prostrated condition to make the garden resemble a battle field before the burial of the dead. Disgustingly very. And yet some of the things had to be laughed at. A girl who, with her lithe youthfulness, quietly fashionable clothes and elegant manner, had made me wonder that she risked a visit to such a place of miscellaneousness, emerged from a corner of wine drinking, so drunk that she couldn’t wtlk without wobbling, and didn’t care whether she walked at all. At the foot of a stairway a tailor’s advertising sign had been upset and nearly demolished. The hat was flattened by trampling feet, the coat wfcs torn Into rags, the trousers were tattered, and the ruin of what had been a fashionable suit was mixed with the broken and bent wire of ihe dummy on which they had been displayed. The girl stopped short on her descent, and gazed with wide eyes and open month upon the collapse. ‘•Heavens, Jack!’’ she exclaimed, while the champagne gurgled audaputtered in her thick utterance; “see the crushed dude?” There are men In New York whoso livelihood is gained by painting the faces of actors and actresses. Nearly all of the professionals do this work for themselves, and the result is that the decorators, as the make up artists are usually called, confine themselves almost entirely to amateurs. The most popular of the lot fs a little Swede who his a studio on Broadway. He has a pale and classical face, long hair, and fs of delicate physique. He dresses entirely in a Byronic collar , but also wears afrock coat and patent, leather boots, and Is extremely dainty and neat. He is a favorite with the army of amateurs, particularly with the girls. He charges $30 a night for his services at an evening entertainment, and has entire ch »rge of every face that goes on the stage. Fit $30 a nigbt he will provide all necessary wtgs ana whiskers. He goes to the theater at seven o’clock, selects a room, places a chair in front of a mirror, and is ready for work. The men are easily treated. As a rule, all they need is a little rouge on their cheeks and chins, shaded eyebrows and whitened foreheads. It th*y play characters a little advanced in life the d rcorator powders their hair and whiskers, pa’n** a I'ne or two about the eyes where the crow’s feet belong, and shades the nnder lip a little, which gives the mouth a grave expression. For the villains, he usually puts on a little blue and white stuff, which represents a grisling beard about the chin and neck, and gives the wearer a more or less villainous appearance. The make up of the women is much more difficult. A man la usually ao much astonished by his beautified appearance after he has been painted that he has little to do bevond admiring himself la the glass, The exact reverse, however, la true of the society actresses. They are never sUIsfied. The little Swede darkens their eyebrows, drops belladonna Into their eyes, paints a line under the lower lid, shades the face carefully with white and red, whitens the noee and eyebrows, and tints the lips. The woman then looks in the glare of the footlights about three thousand per cent, better than she did as nature made her, but her heart is filled with dissatisfaction, and after every act she goes down to his room. | ^‘You’ve made my eyes too bright and big,” aha snaps: "1 look frightfully sensational and glary.” . "Not atall, Mlsf,”hesajs,in a deprecatory manner. "If I made your eyea less prominent, people would notice your nose, which, you know, is not particularly big.” She thereupon assured him that she didn’t ask him for any criticism of her nose, which in aU probability, is of the snub variety, and stiU insists that her eyes look unnatural. Thereupon she Hope down In the chair again, and he agrees to heighten the color of her cheeks, assuring her that that win redace the prominence of her eyes. This he does, and she does not bother him again until the end of the next act, when the probably discovers that'he has painted her cheeks so brightly, that a tiny dimple goes unobserved. To all these criticisms he submit* with much apparent humility, and afterwards frees Ids mind concerning his subjects. ‘•Amateurs are the most difficult people In the world to get along with ” he growled. "They never know what they want, and are never by any means satisfed, no matter how well they are made up. I refer of course to the women. The men never paint, and therefore have no opinton worth bothering about. But almost every society womaa has practiced upon her face at various times, and all of them think that they know more about making up their faces than the beet makeup artist in the world. They can not realize the difference that gas light makes on the face on the stage. Then too, they are ao nervous that they are glad to have somebody to find fault with.

Adam fiadeau, ex-consul general of Havana, He says that Badeau, In his statements respecting the recent commercial agreement negotiated at Madrid for the West Indian trade, was entirely unsuatained by facts. A new agreement was substituted for the original because the Spanish cortes had been dissolved, and its consent to the terms of the treaty could not be obtained before It expired by limitation. President Arthur is expressly authorized by statute to suspend the 10 per cent, extra duty on Spanish cargoes, which is all that has been done on the part of the United State*. General Badeau is equally at fault, Mr. Foster says, in regard to the effects of the agreement. The isss, in place of $6,500,000, as he alleged, is virtually nothing, at mo*t not more than $25,000, while we obtain a reduction in the tariffs of Cuba and Porto Rico averaging at least 30 per cent, on all American products, and secure the abolition of an odious discrimination—a point for which our government has been contending with Spain for more than fifty years. It is not claimed that the agreement is all that is needed In respect to the Caban trade, but It is a great step in the right direction. A BoardlDg-Hon.se Blotto, IThtladelpMa CaiLj Mr*.

Thirty one and eight tenths per cent, of all the land In farms in Indiana in 1380 was unimproved; in other words that much of the arable lands of our state were withheld ftom use, probably for a speculative rise in values; at least until the necessities of the people thould compel them to pay to the owners whatever bonus m'ght be demanded for its use. The Cherokee Leases. The Cherokees of Indian territory get $100,COO a t ear from a live-stock comoauy for the use of a part of their grazing land, but yet the rent amounts to only two cents an acre.

Signor Sella, the late Italian statesman, would never receive a gift, even from the king. He once declined a snuff box sent him by the emperor of Austria, and valued at $6,060. He even refused a horse that Victor Emanuel once offered him, saying laughingly, that he bad one already, and that if he accepted this one he would have to sell his own horse to buy food for the other. There is a man In Berrien county, Georgia, who has not slept In a honse since the war. He carries his entire wardrobe with him wherever he goes, as well as his pantry and kitchen utensils, and spends the night wherever dark may overtake him. He Is a veritable curiosity. He never reads newspapers, claiming that to read tbe Bible as It should be read occupies all of his time. Several days since he inquired of the editor of a paper if Germany and France were still at war, referring to the war of 1870. Henry Watterson was born In Washington City while his father was la congress, during the last year of Van Buren’s admlmsticn. He was just of age when the war broke out. He then went to Ten nee see and served In the rebel army until Its close, except a year, which he spent in editing & paper called the Rebel, In Chattanooga. When the war ended he assumed the editorship of the Nashville Banner, after which he went to Louisville to edit the Journal, which consolidated with the Courier. When Curry, the murderer who was bar ged In Monroe, Ga., Friday last, was asked to make his last statement, he related that he had seen the ship of Zton floating down Peachtree street In Atlanta. This was not a dream, but a vision. This ship was crowded with little children dressed in white. He was standing on the sidewalk with a shot-gun In his hand. He shot up In the air and a duck fell. A mau on the boat picked up the duck and hung it with a string. This convinced him that the Lord was going to hang a duck and not allow him to be hung. Nevertheless, he was hanged. A dinner was given to Henry George In New Yoik, Wednesday night, and he is thus deecrlbed: “He Is medium in height and square in build, with no hair at the top of his head, but some that Is straight and brown at the side*, and In a full beard. His brow is high and full, his features strong, though of a common type, and his bearing brisk. In smoking he holds his cigar at an angle of sixty degree*, while henuffs about ten per cent of the smoke from hto nose. When he made a speech, after the rest of the addresses had been delivered, he had the fluency and elocution of a practised public speaker. He said nothing, however, that he had not already put Into hto book.” A democratic member who called at the white house recently was suprtoed at' the president’s cordiality. “Sit down,” said the president to him, “and we’ll have a nice talk.” The modest member expressed a fear that the many republicans, senators and representatives, who were awaiting audience would not like to be kept ao long while a democrat was before them. "Oh, never mind them,” said Mr. Arthur, "you are a democrat, and so I know you don’t want anjtnlDg. You have called socially, and 1 assure you it to a relief to get away from those fellowa for a few minutes.

It was a bitter night, and the circle of men ia that ceuntry store near Carboadale, Pa., welcomed an excuse to hug the fire. Will Coil, one ef the most famous lumbermen of that legion,
cleared hto throat and said:
"There ain’t much to the story; the peint lays in how it came out.I was ont to the woods -’bout ten year ago it was—all alone, trying to start a goeds-tlzed pine log down the hill. I tackeled her with mr hook on the lower side, and throw ed my whole weight on the lever. Well, boys, she started on a sadden and come for me. I ketched my toe on n pile sf brush, and before I could get up that log rolled square over me. at tbe rate of ’coat a mile a minute. Sf it hadn't been for that brush, that give me room to sink down, I til’d ’a been manufactured into ten Is o’ rag carpet. As it was, I got off with a

Where the Fire is Out. Magic No More a Mystery—Seen from Across the World. “Haroonof Aleppo." said Sir Philip Derval, ’had mastered every secret In nature whtoh the nobler magic seeks to fathom. He discovered that the true art of healing to to assist Nature to throw off the direase-to summon, as It were, the wholesystem to eject the enemy that haa fastened on a part. IDs processes all Inclnde the rebiyigoratlou of the principle of
life."
In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated the practice of the best physicians of to-day. What life itself Is, nebody knew tiieib—nebody knows now. Bat we have learned something of the reasons why the mysterious tide rises and falls. Provided the great organs of the body are not irreparably destroyed, medical science can always rellere, and often save. Yet no reputable physician now adheres to the barbarons and stupid processes of depletion, snob as bleeding, by which It was attemoted to cure disease by reducing ttte patient’s ability to resist It. Now a days we do not teardown the fort to help the garrison—we strengthen It. In this intelligent and beneficent work. It ts conceded that PARKER’S TONIC leads aU other medicines. As an tnvlgorant It acts la-
ailments of tbe stomach, kidneys aad liver are at once relieved or cured. No other preparation embodies tbe sante qualities or produces similar results.
