DAVIS, DETROIT, MICH. An editorial in the Free Press undur date Dec. 18, 1887, and another date Jan. 6, 1888, having attracted my attention, largely due to the fact of the inacuracies contained therein, I desire to present a few reasons and statistics for the low price of quinine. The articles in question I read with interest as they were designed to favor free trade views in opposition to a protective policy, but the statement! made were widely at variance with well- know facts, and in view ot the present importance of the subject deserve correc- tion. Quinine, because of the general ignor- ance that prevails in regard to it, has been much misrepresented, and mire badly defended, than iinj' other product. The present low price of quinine in place of being the result, of a free trade policy, is most signally the result of a policy of government encouragement, successfully applied by England and Holland to pro- mote the cultivation of cinchona bark in their East India possessions. Fifty years ago, the habitat of the cinchona plant, yielding bark of a desirable quality, was supposed to be confined to theracino side of the South American Andes, and as the demand for quinine exceeded the supply, the furnishing of bark of a desirable quality, called calisaya, became almost a monopoly in the hands of the Peruvian government, and tlie price of quinine advanced at that time to $4 per ounce, but the high price combined with the progress in chemical knowledge, led to the use of lower grades of bark from many sections ot South America, and as a result quinine declined from $4 to about $125 per oz; this was about forty years ago. The price afterwards gradually ad- vanced as tbe supply of bark deteriorated, as all vegetable products do when nature is the sole dependence, because the better varieties are most profitably marketed while the poorer remain for future prop- agation. The Governments of Great Britain nnd Holland here took a li ind and undertook a cultivation which Ins proved wonderfully successful from the reason that the cultivated article, pro- duced under a government protection, i- marketed at less expense than the cost of overland carriage In South America. In February, 1861, the first installments ol seeds arrived in Ceylon from South America. In 1869 the export was but 23,025, of bark. It was not until 1875 that it appeared upon the market as a commercial factor to the extent of 10,000 lbs., and it has gradually increased until In 1886 it readied the enormous amount of over 15,000,000 lbs. per annum from the island of Veylon a one, and very low prices prevail as a consequence. Note statistics: Tlie Cuylon season begins Oct. 1 and ends Sept. 30 in the following year. The The shipment of this variety is reported in weight for each twelve months ending Sept. ;M) in yeiirs named as follows: 1876, 16,842 11)8.; 1877, 68,689 lbs. i 1878,173,- 497 lbs.; 1879, 373,511 lbs.; 1880,1,208,- 518 Ins.; 1881, 1,207,720 lba.; 18X2, 8,099,- 095 lbs.; 1883, 6,935,595 lbs.; 1884,11, 492.497 lbs.; 1885, 11,678,360 lbs.; 1886, 15,864,919 lbs. Quinine In consequence has declined during the past ten years from $3 to less than 50 cents per ounce, toward which our former protective duty and our late free trade policy have been insignificant factors. It is very evident, therefore, to those who are willing to be convinced, and not to those who are so blind that they will not see, that the enormous in- crease in tlie output of bark from Ceylon commenced at just about the time that quinine was made free, and as stated above, that the former protective duty and the placing of quinine on the free list, had but little weight with the gradu al* lowering in the price of quinine. From that day until this the increase in the ex- port of bark from Ceylon has been at the rate of between 2,00(1,000 and 3 000,000 pounds per year, and during 1885 and 1886, 4,000,000 pounds. The Free Press, in its issue of Jan. 6, states that in 1879 there were tour estab- lishments in this country turning out quinine, in 1883 it states that the number Of manufacturers in this country had in- creased to five, and still later that the number had further Increased to twelve. This information undoubtedly was taken from an article in the New York Star of Dec. 12, which declared: "In June, 1879, when the free quinine bill was passed there were but four manu- facturers of quinine In the United States — Powers & Weightman, H wengartcn & Son, Keason & Mattlson and (.'. T. Wliite & Co." Further on it says: "After the drug had been on the free list nearly nine years the number of manufacturers has increased from four to twelve, as follows: Lehn & Fink, W. H. Schieffelin & Co.. powers & Welghtinan, Uosengartcn A; Son, McKesson & Kobbius, Keasbr ^ Mattlson, A. B. Thompson, C. T. While & Co., Parke, Davis & Co., Stevenson, Barnes & Jester, Mallinckrodt chemical works, W. S. Meniil chemical company, Ed. R. Squibb and William K. Warner." This list, however, it will be seen, num- bers fourteen instead of twelve; of the fourteen concerns named above THBEK ONLY are now manufacturing quinine, two having relinquished the business and NINE NEVEK HAVING MADE ANY. I have 110 desire to stand up and protect quinine particularly, but desire to see fair play. •A correspondent of the free Preti. Jan. 12 replying to the above, makes the assertion that "when the blood tax wan removed the price of quinine fetlaionco (not gradually, an Mr. Davis states) one-half, and the country enjoyed cheaper quinine as the result of th« redaction." In the Tribune of January 20, Mr. Davis gives detailed statistic 'sol tbe price of quinine during »>« years Immediately fol- lowing tneremovalof the larltf. The price in February, 1W> was liw. ltd., rising to 12s. (he following month and falling to 10s. In June. In July the tarltrwas removed. The price of quinine declined, with fluctuations, from 11s. itd In July toa minimum of 9». fid. In Decem- ber but tuen steadily rose until It reached the'fleureorr-Ss. .'id. In August, IHMO declining BKiiln gradually to 9s. 9d. In December. Thus at the end of eighteen months there bad, only oeen slight temporary reductions In the price of the duly free quinine, the average during this period heiag higher than In the six months preceding. In 1SSI the price rose Us. 8d., In March, then licgan, for the first time, and colucldently with tlie arrival in qauntity of bark from Ceylon, to show a de- cided downward tendency, dropping little by little to Rs. Sd. In November, but rallying again and ruling, during me whole of the suc- ceeding year, at about 8* B.d. The price has continued to decline gradually and with fluctuations from the close of 1882 until the low figures of recent months were reached, but It was nearly live years after the tariff was removed before the price was reduced one-half.

Ebenezer Webster, Dmiel Webster's father, was once very much annoyed by a woodchuik, which was wont to enter his garden in the night and eat up many of the fine vegetables he found there. Daniel and his brother Ezekiel succeeded, after considerable trouble, in capturing the intruder in a box trap. "Now, Mr. Woodehuck," said Ezekiel, "we will fix you. You have done mis- chief enough. Dan, let's take him out into the field and open the trap and let the dog kill him." "Oh no, do not do that," said Daniel, who pitied the poor captive. "Let's take him to the woods and let him go." The boys could not agree, and so they went to the father about it, taking the captive along with them. "He ought to be killed," said Ezekiel, "but, Dun want's to let him go." "Well, boys," said the old gentleman, " ae you can't agree about it, you may argue tlie case before me. I will be the judge. You Ezekiel, may first give your reasons for the treatment you propose, and Daniel shall be the council for the prisoner and plead his cause. Then Ezekiel opened the case against the prisoner, and he was deeply in earnest. This is the substance of what he said:— "The woodehuck Is a very mischeivous animal, aud this one done a great deal of harm, as we all know. If had we not Oa ught him, be would have destroyed a great many of our vegetables, and per- haps would have spoiled our garden. We h ive spent a great deal of time and labor in his capture and, if he should be suffered to live and go at large agaiu, there is little doubt that he would begin his depredations anew and be cunning enough to escape recaptlire. Besides, it would be nothing more than strict justice for the wood- ehuck to be punished for what evil he has already done; and that punishment should bo such as would prevent him from doing evil In future. It is impossible to change his evil nature, so nothing but death or imprisonment for life can put a stop to his depredations. We cannot afford to take care of him and feed him; and, moreover, if we should attempt to confine him, he might get away and go back to his evil practices. If we kill him, his skin will he of some little value to us: but it will not repay half the damage he has already done. In case we let him go free, even if he should not steal from us again, he will probably steal from others; therefore the public good requires that it should be put to death." The father was highly pleased with this speech of E/ekiel's, ami it was evident that he was influenced against the wood- chuck by the earnest and able argument to which he had listened. It was now Daniel's turn, and as he looked upon the soft and timid expression of the trembling animal, his large bril- liant black eyes were suffused with te.irs. His heart was moved with pity, and his whole soul was aroused, as he appealed, with eloquent words for the lite and liberty of tlie captive. "God made the woodehuck," said he. He made him to live. He made him to roam free in the fields and woods, and to enjoy the pure air and the bright sun- shine. God did not make anything in vain,—not even the woodehuck. He made him to till 111? proper place in crea- tion, and the woodehuck has as much right to live as any other living thing. He 13 not a destructive animal, like the wolf and the fox and tiger. He does not kill poultry; he does not take life; he does not destroy anything for mere sport; he simply eats a few vegetables, of Which we have an abundance and can well spare a part. The food that he eats to sustain life is as sweet to him and as necessary to his existence as is that for us which is served up on our mother's table. God furnishes our food. So, also the Bible tells us, 'He givcth to his beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.' Are we not also told to 'consider the ravens, which neither have store-house nor barn, and God fecdeth them ?' So, also, he feedeth all dumb animals, if man does not rob them of their just share. If God gives us all we possess, even the vege- tables in our garden, shall we not share a little from our abundance for this poor dumb creature, who cannot speak for himself, but is here mutely pleading for life at our hands? We have no right to take that life away without good causes, and is there a good cause? The wood- chuck has never violated the laws of his nature of the laws of God, as man often does; but he strictly follows tbe laws of his being which he has received from the hands of the Creator of all things. Is it not quite as probable that we have taken that which God has designe 1 for the woodehuck as that the woodehuck has taken that which God designed for us? We have taken the land where he roamed, aud have cut down the trees that sup- plied him with nuts and acorns. Shall we, then, take it into our hands to punish the woodehuck—to imprison him or put him to death—just for taking the food which God has provided for him? I say we have no right to deprive him of either life or liberty. Witness the mute but earnest pleading of the animal for that life which is so sweet to him. Oh ! let us not take it away in selfish cruelly and cold heartlessness; for, if we- do, we must expect a just and righteous punishment for our wanton act." During this earnest plea of Daniel's, tears started from the father's eyes and run down his sunburnt cheeks. His pity and sympathy were awakened by the touching words of compassion and the eloquent and earnest appeal tor mercy to the captive; and, while Daniel was yet in tlie midst of his argument, the old man, giving way to his feelings and for- getting that he was acting as a judge, sprang from his chair, dashed the tears from his eyes, aud exclaimed, " Zeke, Zeke, you let that woodehuck go!" It Is a Curious Fact That the body is now more susceptible to hcnctil from medicine than at any other season. Hence the importance of taking Hood's Sirsaparilla now, when it will do you the most good. It is really wonder- tnl lor purifying and enriching the blood, creating an appetite, and giving a healthy tone to the whole system. Be sure to get Hood's Sirsaparilla, which is peculiar to Itself. ^^^^^^^^^ Every hostess agrees now that without men no five o'clock tea Is fashionably strong.

Locomotive engineers are not ilissi- p-ited, although it Is notorious that they lead a fast life. From tbe Am. Medical Journal (Chicago). Public Wealth rs. Public Health. Less than a month ago a notice appearei In the obituary columns of the daily papers of this city, showing that on Feb- ruary 3, 6 and 15, the three children of family had died of diphtheria in Chicago, their ages being G, 3, and 1 years respec tively. But this announcement caused no commotion or public talk in the city, and certainly none In the State. The matter was not brought before Congress, nor was there a meeting of State Govern ors to discuss the matter. It does not appear that the family was quarantined, nor that any investigation was made of the origin of this outbreak of diphtheria. Beyond the t.imily left childless, no thought seems to have been given to the fact that three children have been carried off by a preventable disease. About two years ago some one discov- ered that a cow somewhere down In the State of Illinois had pleuro-pneumonia— at any rate, it lud a lump on its under jaw. There was immediately a great commotion in the State, and in adjoining and distant States. Telegrams were sent to Washington, and Congress made haste to pass a bill, creating a new official with a salary, and added him to the Depart- ment nt the Inteliir, making this new official a sort of Bureau of Animal In- dustries; and more than this, the business of the cattle drover* at the Chicago stock- yards was temporarily paralyzed, in order to see if some other cows might not take pleuro-pneuinonia from the one cow. An embargo was laid on cattle from the place where the cow with the swollen jaw was found. The Bureau of Animal Industries seems to have got out of exis- tence, and it WHS proli ilily I'orgolteii un- til a short time ago, whe l it was found that the embargo laid in 188G has not been removed. Cattle are valuable animals, and it is very important that, since we use them for food, they be kept as free from dis- ease as possible. But are they more val- uable than children? Is it more import- ant that cattle be kept healthy, and free from preventable diseases, than children ? One diseased c o u . i t m iy be said, may cause disease in many human beings. The same may be said of one sick child with an infectious disease. But cattle are worth money, and their loss is a positive pecuniary loss to the owner. The sum 1 , and to a very much greater extent, is true of children. How many cattle die annually of pleu- ro-pneumoniii as compared with the num- ber of children that die of diphtheria— not to mention the other infectious dis- eases? Is there any comparison between the numbers? Do not thu examples that We have cited remind one of straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel? Do not the people of this countrv owe it to themselves to have more efficient and a more uniform system of supervision of the health of the people? Emperor Frederick to His People. The new Emperor, Frederick of Ger- many, has issued the following proclama- tion to his people: To my people—The Emperor has er.d- ed his noble life. In the much loved lather whom I bewail, whom my royal house with me lament in deepest sorrow, the I". lit itt ill Prussian people have lost their fame-crowned King, the German nation the f Hinder of its unity, and the newly risen empire tlie first German Em- peror. His Illustrious name will remain Inseparably bound up with all the great- ness of the German Fatherland, in who-e creation the strenuous labor of the Prus- sian people and Princes had met with its most splendid reward. While King Wil- liam raised the Prussian army to the heights of its earnest vocation by never tiring ctre, a nation's father, he had a sure foundation tor the victories after- wards gained by German arms, under his leadership, and out ot which sprang na- tional unity. He thereby secured to the Empire a position of power such as up to that time every German heart had yearn- ed for but had scarcely dared to hope for, and that which he won for his people in honorable, death-bringing fight he was destined to strengthen and beneficially increase by the long peaceful toil of his laborious years of government. Safely resting upon her own strength Germany stands forth esteemed in the councils of the nations, and desires only to enjoy in peace!ul progress that which she has won. That this is so we have to thank Emperor William. In his never-wavering devotion to duty and his indefatigable activity, consecrated to the welfare of the Fatherland, he was supported by his reli- ance upon the self-sacrificing devotion of which the Prussian people have given un- varying proofs and in which all the Ger- man races shared. All the rights and duties which are connected with the crown and my house, and which for the time that, according to God's will may be allotted me to rule, I am resolved to faithfully preserve. Imbued with the greatness ot my mission, I shall make it my whole endeavor to continue the fab- ric in the spirit In which it was founded —to make Germany tlie center of peace and to foster her welfare. To my faithful people who have stood to my house throughout the history of tne whole cen- tury, in good as in evil days, I offer my unbounded confidence, for 1 am convinc- ed that on the basis of the unbreakable bond between the Sovereign and the peo- ple, which independently of every change in the life of the state forms the unalterable Inheritance of the house of Hohenzollern. my crown rests henceforward as securely as it does upon the devotion of the coun- try to the government of which I am now called, and ot which I solemnly promise to be a faithful King both in happiness and in sorrow. May Cod grant me His bless ing and strength to curry out this work, to which my lite shall henceforth be de- voted . (Signed.) FRKDEIHCK. Berlin, March 12, 18S8. Died of Heart Disease. Many eminent men, among them Mr. Vundeibilt, Mr. Hendricks, Gen.

Michigan folks who are in California this winter complain that they cannot, tet newspapers from home with any legree of certainty or regularity, unless etter postage has been paid thereon.— Jhelsea Herald.

Our readers who smoke cigarettes may Ind food for reflection in the following from a gentleman who visited a factory and says that cigarettes are made of "cigar-butts picked up in the streets, mi ks of certain kinds, tobacco-stems and refuse, heaped together in one lilthy pile, and then saturated with opium, which gives the cigarette that soothing effect de- sirable to all smokers." Ugh!—Pickncy Dispatch. The law of highways Is simple and clear. Kvery person has an equal right with any other to use any public highway at any time for travel, either on foot, on beast, or with any vehicle or conveyance by which he simply pusses over the road and leaves it reasonably undisturbed for the next passer; and upon ever traveler rests the duty of so using the road as not to Injure or unreasonably impede any other who may be exercising the same right and observing the same duty there- on. A bicycle rider or a traction engine has an equal right to the highway with a man on horseback or with a wagon. The Ypsilantian has this very sensible article in reference to business: "Mr Begole has parted with the Belleville En- terprise, and A. E. Smith, who has been connected with the office, assumes its management. Mr. Begole pursued ihe theory that work was desirable at ni.y price, and in order to secure business that would not otherwise have gone to him he made prices so low as to extin- guish profit. His customers received the temporary benefit of the low prices, but his business was slaughtered by it. In all such cases, the gain isotily apparent, and there is a net loss to the community. Any private business conducted without profit is a positive loss to every member of the community, and every right-minded man will be interested in the prosperity of every useful business in the community Pancakes in Variety. On cold winter mornings pancakes of all kinds hold an important place at the breakfast table. The cherished buck- wheat cake, most prominent of all from Thanksgiving Day until early Spring is seldom absent from the morning meal in the genuine American household. When properly made, this is the most delicious of all the griddle cakes, but it lias been against it when made from yeast or risen over night that it Wa» difficult to make light and sweet, and that disagreeable effects frequently followed its eating. It is found that by the use of the Royal Bak- ing Powder to raise the batter these ob- jections have been entirely overcome, and that buckwheat cakes are made a most delicious food, light, sweet, tender and perfectly wholesome, that can be eaten by anyone without the slightest digestive inconvenience. Once tested from the following receipt, noothtrwill be used: Two cups of buckwheat, one cup of wheat Hour, two tablespoons of Royal Baking Powder, one half teaspoonful of salt, all sifted well together. Mix with milk into a thin batter and bake at once on a hot griddle. The purest and richest syrup is made by dissolving sugar in Ihe proportion of three pounds of sugar to one pint of water. Many persons prefer the flavor of syrup made of Orleans sugar to that made of the white. Rice griddle cakes are very delicious. The rice is cooked until perfectly soft, drained dry, maRhed with a spoon uutil the grains are well broken up. For each cupful of rice take two eggs, one pint of milk, one heaping tablespoon of Royal Bi.king Powder, one-half teaspoonful of salt, and flour enough to make a thin batter. For hominy cakes take two cupfuls of cooked hominy, and crush it with a po- tato-masher until it is a smooth mass. Add one level teaspoonful of salt, two teaspoonfuls of Koval Baking Powder, and onecupful of flour. Stir together; then add by degrees one quart of milk, and lastly three well beaten eggs. Bake iu thin cakes. Very delicate and delicious cakes are made by allowing two teaspoonfuls of Royal Baking Powder and one-half tea- spoonful of salt to one quart of milk, and sufficient corn meal, mixing all into a smooth, iliin batter; no eggs or butter are used for these. The cakes bake quickly to a rich deep brown, and are extremely tender and light, A very delicious, sweet pancake is made by taking one pint of sweet milk, four eggs, two tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, two tablespoonfuls of melted but- ter, one teaspoonful of Royal Baking Powder, and (lour enough to miko a stilt bntter. Beat the egga, whites and yolks separately, until well frothed, stir the butter, sugar, and one cupful of floor, into which the baking powder has been mixed, into the yolks, then add the milk. If needed, add more flour. Bake in small cakes, butter each one as it conies from the fire, place four in a pile, with very thin layers of any kind of sweet jelly between and powdered sugar over the top. They should be baked very thin and four served to each person. " Upon whom will Nasby's mantle fall?' asks an exchange. Don't know, but if it falls on any weak or common man it wiii tnasli him so tint that his best friends one know him. That's a pretty big mantle to fall on anybody.—Lansing Republican. The Republican evidently has not seen the efforts of the fellow in the last Argus. He is probably one ol the ablest ape-rs of tlie dead humorist who ever condescended to come down to earth and put his thouj{lits( ?) on paper. The agitation against tlie shameful il- lustrated papers on our news stands and railroads is beginning to produce an ef- fect. The sale of a certain class of these pictorial sheets has been forbidden on the Boston and Albany railroad. H. is right. Their admission into s\ car or de- pot is an insult to every woman in it. Will not other railroads follow the ex- ample set?—Fenton Independent. Renews Her Youth. Mrs. Phu'lie Chester, Peterson, Clay Co., Iowa, tells the following remarkable story, the truth of which is vouched for by the residents nt the town: " 1 am 73 years old, have been troubled with kidney com- plaint and lameness for many yean; could not dress myself without help. Now I am free from all pain and soreness, ami am able to do my own housework. I owe my thanks to Electric Hitters for having renewed my youth, and removed completely all disease anil pain.

Yet John must follow a farmer's, life,As 'twas long before decreed 1

There was Davy, the very opposite.—A lad with a merry eye

Who hated his books and huted his schoolAnd thought all study dry.

Except to read the of there rover's life—A life that he fain would lead;

Yet Dave must hang up his lawyer's sign,As 'twas long before decreed !

Our farmer he raised but sorry crops,our lawyer lost his fees,

And while one took to his books againThe other took to Ihe seas.

Now John he nils a parson's desk,And his work is not In vain ;

While Davy Halls In as fine a shipAs ever went over the main!

From the Pharmaceutical Era.Has Free Trade Giren us Cheap Qui-

nine .'

BY J. E. DAVIS, DETROIT, MICH.

An editorial in the Free Press undurdate Dec. 18, 1887, and another date Jan.6, 1888, having attracted my attention,largely due to the fact of the inacuraciescontained therein, I desire to present afew reasons and statistics for the lowprice of quinine. The articles in questionI read with interest as they were designedto favor free trade views in opposition toa protective policy, but the statement!made were widely at variance with well-know facts, and in view ot the presentimportance of the subject deserve correc-tion.

Quinine, because of the general ignor-ance that prevails in regard to it, hasbeen much misrepresented, and mirebadly defended, than iinj' other product.The present low price of quinine in placeof being the result, of a free trade policy,is most signally the result of a policy ofgovernment encouragement, successfullyapplied by England and Holland to pro-mote the cultivation of cinchona bark intheir East India possessions. Fifty yearsago, the habitat of the cinchona plant,yielding bark of a desirable quality, wassupposed to be confined to theracino sideof the South American Andes, and as thedemand for quinine exceeded the supply,the furnishing of bark of a desirablequality, called calisaya, became almost amonopoly in the hands of the Peruviangovernment, and tlie price of quinineadvanced at that time to $4 per ounce,but the high price combined with theprogress in chemical knowledge, led tothe use of lower grades of bark frommany sections ot South America, and asa result quinine declined from $4 to about$125 per oz; this was about forty yearsago. The price afterwards gradually ad-vanced as tbe supply of bark deteriorated,as all vegetable products do when natureis the sole dependence, because the bettervarieties are most profitably marketedwhile the poorer remain for future prop-agation. The Governments of GreatBritain nnd Holland here took a li indand undertook a cultivation which Insproved wonderfully successful from thereason that the cultivated article, pro-duced under a government protection, i-marketed at less expense than the cost ofoverland carriage In South America. InFebruary, 1861, the first installments olseeds arrived in Ceylon from SouthAmerica. In 1869 the export was but23,025, of bark. It was not until 1875that it appeared upon the market as acommercial factor to the extent of 10,000lbs., and it has gradually increased untilIn 1886 it readied the enormous amount ofover 15,000,000 lbs. per annum from theisland of Veylon a one, and very low pricesprevail as a consequence. Note statistics:

Tlie Cuylon season begins Oct. 1 andends Sept. 30 in the following year. TheThe shipment of this variety is reportedin weight for each twelve months endingSept. ;M) in yeiirs named as follows: 1876,16,842 11)8.; 1877, 68,689 lbs. i 1878,173,-497 lbs.; 1879, 373,511 lbs.; 1880,1,208,-518 Ins.; 1881, 1,207,720 lba.; 18X2, 8,099,-095 lbs.; 1883, 6,935,595 lbs.; 1884,11,492.497 lbs.; 1885, 11,678,360 lbs.; 1886,15,864,919 lbs.

Quinine In consequence has declinedduring the past ten years from $3 to lessthan 50 cents per ounce, toward whichour former protective duty and our latefree trade policy have been insignificantfactors. It is very evident, therefore, tothose who are willing to be convinced,and not to those who are so blind thatthey will not see, that the enormous in-crease in tlie output of bark from Ceyloncommenced at just about the time thatquinine was made free, and as statedabove, that the former protective dutyand the placing of quinine on the freelist, had but little weight with the gradual* lowering in the price of quinine. Fromthat day until this the increase in the ex-port of bark from Ceylon has been at therate of between 2,00(1,000 and 3 000,000pounds per year, and during 1885 and1886, 4,000,000 pounds.

The Free Press, in its issue of Jan. 6,states that in 1879 there were tour estab-lishments in this country turning outquinine, in 1883 it states that the numberOf manufacturers in this country had in-creased to five, and still later that thenumber had further Increased to twelve.This information undoubtedly was takenfrom an article in the New York Star ofDec. 12, which declared:

"In June, 1879, when the free quininebill was passed there were but four manu-facturers of quinine In the United States— Powers & Weightman, H wengartcn &Son, Keason & Mattlson and (.'. T. Wliite& Co." Further on it says: "After thedrug had been on the free list nearly nineyears the number of manufacturers hasincreased from four to twelve, as follows:Lehn & Fink, W. H. Schieffelin & Co..powers & Welghtinan, Uosengartcn A;Son, McKesson & Kobbius, Keasbr ^Mattlson, A. B. Thompson, C. T. While& Co., Parke, Davis & Co., Stevenson,Barnes & Jester, Mallinckrodt chemicalworks, W. S. Meniil chemical company,Ed. R. Squibb and William K. Warner."

This list, however, it will be seen, num-bers fourteen instead of twelve; of thefourteen concerns named above THBEKONLY are now manufacturing quinine, twohaving relinquished the business and NINENEVEK HAVING MADE ANY. I have 110desire to stand up and protect quinineparticularly, but desire to see fair play.

•A correspondent of the free Preti. Jan. 12replying to the above, makes the assertionthat "when the blood tax wan removed theprice of quinine fetlaionco (not gradually,an Mr. Davis states) one-half, and the countryenjoyed cheaper quinine as the result of th«redaction." In the Tribune of January 20,Mr. Davis gives detailed statistic 'sol tbe priceof quinine during »>« years Immediately fol-lowing tneremovalof the larltf. The price inFebruary, 1W> was liw. ltd., rising to 12s. (hefollowing month and falling to 10s. In June.In July the tarltrwas removed. The price ofquinine declined, with fluctuations, from 11s.itd In July toa minimum of 9». fid. In Decem-ber but tuen steadily rose until It reachedthe'fleureorr-Ss. .'id. In August, IHMO decliningBKiiln gradually to 9s. 9d. In December. Thusat the end of eighteen months there bad,only oeen slight temporary reductions In theprice of the duly free quinine, the averageduring this period heiag higher than In thesix months preceding. In 1SSI the price roseUs. 8d., In March, then licgan, for the firsttime, and colucldently with tlie arrival inqauntity of bark from Ceylon, to show a de-cided downward tendency, dropping little bylittle to Rs. Sd. In November, but rallyingagain and ruling, during me whole of the suc-ceeding year, at about 8* B.d. The price hascontinued to decline gradually and withfluctuations from the close of 1882 until thelow figures of recent months were reached,but It was nearly live years after the tariffwas removed before the price was reducedone-half.

DA3IEL WEBSTER'S FIRST SPEECH.

And How He Cleared the Woodchuck.

Ebenezer Webster, Dmiel Webster'sfather, was once very much annoyed bya woodchuik, which was wont to enterhis garden in the night and eat up manyof the fine vegetables he found there.Daniel and his brother Ezekiel succeeded,after considerable trouble, in capturingthe intruder in a box trap.

"Now, Mr. Woodehuck," said Ezekiel,"we will fix you. You have done mis-chief enough. Dan, let's take him outinto the field and open the trap and letthe dog kill him."

"Oh no, do not do that," said Daniel,who pitied the poor captive. "Let's takehim to the woods and let him go." Theboys could not agree, and so they went tothe father about it, taking the captivealong with them.

"He ought to be killed," said Ezekiel,"but, Dun want's to let him go."

"Well, boys," said the old gentleman," ae you can't agree about it, you mayargue tlie case before me. I will be thejudge. You Ezekiel, may first give yourreasons for the treatment you propose,and Daniel shall be the council for theprisoner and plead his cause.

Then Ezekiel opened the case againstthe prisoner, and he was deeply in earnest.This is the substance of what he said:—

"The woodehuck Is a very mischeivousanimal, aud this one done a great deal ofharm, as we all know. If had we notOaught him, be would have destroyed agreat many of our vegetables, and per-haps would have spoiled our garden. Weh ive spent a great deal of time and laborin his capture and, if he should be sufferedto live and go at large agaiu, there is littledoubt that he would begin his depredationsanew and be cunning enough to escaperecaptlire. Besides, it would be nothingmore than strict justice for the wood-ehuck to be punished for what evil he hasalready done; and that punishment shouldbo such as would prevent him from doingevil In future. It is impossible to changehis evil nature, so nothing but death orimprisonment for life can put a stop tohis depredations. We cannot afford totake care of him and feed him; and,moreover, if we should attempt to confinehim, he might get away and go back tohis evil practices. If we kill him, hisskin will he of some little value to us: butit will not repay half the damage he hasalready done. In case we let him go free,even if he should not steal from us again,he will probably steal from others;therefore the public good requires that itshould be put to death."

The father was highly pleased with thisspeech of E/ekiel's, ami it was evidentthat he was influenced against the wood-chuck by the earnest and able argumentto which he had listened.

It was now Daniel's turn, and as helooked upon the soft and timid expressionof the trembling animal, his large bril-liant black eyes were suffused with te.irs.His heart was moved with pity, and hiswhole soul was aroused, as he appealed,with eloquent words for the lite andliberty of tlie captive.

"God made the woodehuck," said he.He made him to live. He made him to

roam free in the fields and woods, and toenjoy the pure air and the bright sun-shine. God did not make anything invain,—not even the woodehuck. Hemade him to till 111? proper place in crea-tion, and the woodehuck has as muchright to live as any other living thing.He 13 not a destructive animal, like thewolf and the fox and tiger. He does notkill poultry; he does not take life; hedoes not destroy anything for mere sport;he simply eats a few vegetables, of Whichwe have an abundance and can well sparea part. The food that he eats to sustainlife is as sweet to him and as necessary tohis existence as is that for us which isserved up on our mother's table. Godfurnishes our food. So, also the Bibletells us, 'He givcth to his beast his food,and to the young ravens which cry.' Arewe not also told to 'consider the ravens,which neither have store-house nor barn,and God fecdeth them ?' So, also, hefeedeth all dumb animals, if man doesnot rob them of their just share. If Godgives us all we possess, even the vege-tables in our garden, shall we not share alittle from our abundance for this poordumb creature, who cannot speak forhimself, but is here mutely pleading forlife at our hands? We have no right totake that life away without good causes,and is there a good cause? The wood-chuck has never violated the laws of hisnature of the laws of God, as man oftendoes; but he strictly follows tbe laws ofhis being which he has received from thehands of the Creator of all things. Is itnot quite as probable that we have takenthat which God has designe 1 for thewoodehuck as that the woodehuck hastaken that which God designed for us?We have taken the land where he roamed,aud have cut down the trees that sup-plied him with nuts and acorns. Shallwe, then, take it into our hands to punishthe woodehuck—to imprison him or puthim to death—just for taking the foodwhich God has provided for him? I saywe have no right to deprive him of eitherlife or liberty. Witness the mute butearnest pleading of the animal for thatlife which is so sweet to him. Oh ! let usnot take it away in selfish cruelly andcold heartlessness; for, if we- do, we mustexpect a just and righteous punishmentfor our wanton act."

During this earnest plea of Daniel's,tears started from the father's eyes andrun down his sunburnt cheeks. His pityand sympathy were awakened by thetouching words of compassion and theeloquent and earnest appeal tor mercy tothe captive; and, while Daniel was yetin tlie midst of his argument, the oldman, giving way to his feelings and for-getting that he was acting as a judge,sprang from his chair, dashed the tearsfrom his eyes, aud exclaimed, " Zeke,Zeke, you let that woodehuck go!"

Public Wealth rs. Public Health.

Less than a month ago a notice appeareiIn the obituary columns of the dailypapers of this city, showing that on Feb-ruary 3, 6 and 15, the three children offamily had died of diphtheria in Chicago,their ages being G, 3, and 1 years respectively. But this announcement causedno commotion or public talk in the city,and certainly none In the State. Thematter was not brought before Congress,nor was there a meeting of State Governors to discuss the matter. It does notappear that the family was quarantined,nor that any investigation was made ofthe origin of this outbreak of diphtheria.Beyond the t.imily left childless, nothought seems to have been given to thefact that three children have been carriedoff by a preventable disease.

About two years ago some one discov-ered that a cow somewhere down In theState of Illinois had pleuro-pneumonia—at any rate, it lud a lump on its underjaw. There was immediately a greatcommotion in the State, and in adjoiningand distant States. Telegrams were sentto Washington, and Congress made hasteto pass a bill, creating a new official witha salary, and added him to the Depart-ment nt the Inteliir, making this newofficial a sort of Bureau of Animal In-dustries; and more than this, the businessof the cattle drover* at the Chicago stock-yards was temporarily paralyzed, in orderto see if some other cows might not takepleuro-pneuinonia from the one cow. Anembargo was laid on cattle from theplace where the cow with the swollenjaw was found. The Bureau of AnimalIndustries seems to have got out of exis-tence, and it WHS proli ilily I'orgolteii un-til a short time ago, whe l it was foundthat the embargo laid in 188G has notbeen removed.

Cattle are valuable animals, and it isvery important that, since we use themfor food, they be kept as free from dis-ease as possible. But are they more val-uable than children? Is it more import-ant that cattle be kept healthy, and freefrom preventable diseases, than children ?One diseased c o u . i t m iy be said, maycause disease in many human beings.The same may be said of one sick childwith an infectious disease. But cattle areworth money, and their loss is a positivepecuniary loss to the owner. The sum1,and to a very much greater extent, is trueof children.

How many cattle die annually of pleu-ro-pneumoniii as compared with the num-ber of children that die of diphtheria—not to mention the other infectious dis-eases? Is there any comparison between

the numbers? Do not thu examples thatWe have cited remind one of straining ata gnat and swallowing a camel? Do notthe people of this countrv owe it tothemselves to have more efficient and amore uniform system of supervision ofthe health of the people?

Emperor Frederick to His People.

The new Emperor, Frederick of Ger-many, has issued the following proclama-tion to his people:

To my people—The Emperor has er.d-ed his noble life. In the much lovedlather whom I bewail, whom my royalhouse with me lament in deepest sorrow,the I".lit itt ill Prussian people have losttheir fame-crowned King, the Germannation the f Hinder of its unity, and thenewly risen empire tlie first German Em-peror. His Illustrious name will remainInseparably bound up with all the great-ness of the German Fatherland, in who-ecreation the strenuous labor of the Prus-sian people and Princes had met with itsmost splendid reward. While King Wil-liam raised the Prussian army to theheights of its earnest vocation by nevertiring ctre, a nation's father, he had asure foundation tor the victories after-wards gained by German arms, under hisleadership, and out ot which sprang na-tional unity. He thereby secured to theEmpire a position of power such as up tothat time every German heart had yearn-ed for but had scarcely dared to hope for,and that which he won for his people inhonorable, death-bringing fight he wasdestined to strengthen and beneficiallyincrease by the long peaceful toil of hislaborious years of government. Safelyresting upon her own strength Germanystands forth esteemed in the councils ofthe nations, and desires only to enjoy inpeace!ul progress that which she haswon. That this is so we have to thankEmperor William. In his never-waveringdevotion to duty and his indefatigableactivity, consecrated to the welfare of theFatherland, he was supported by his reli-ance upon the self-sacrificing devotion ofwhich the Prussian people have given un-varying proofs and in which all the Ger-man races shared. All the rights andduties which are connected with thecrown and my house, and which for thetime that, according to God's willmay be allotted me to rule, I am resolvedto faithfully preserve. Imbued with thegreatness ot my mission, I shall make itmy whole endeavor to continue the fab-ric in the spirit In which it was founded—to make Germany tlie center of peaceand to foster her welfare. To my faithfulpeople who have stood to my housethroughout the history of tne whole cen-tury, in good as in evil days, I offer myunbounded confidence, for 1 am convinc-ed that on the basis of the unbreakablebond between the Sovereign and the peo-ple, which independently of every changein the life of the state forms the unalterableInheritance of the house of Hohenzollern.my crown rests henceforward as securelyas it does upon the devotion of the coun-try to the government of which I am nowcalled, and ot which I solemnly promise tobe a faithful King both in happiness andin sorrow. May Cod grant me His blessing and strength to curry out this work,to which my lite shall henceforth be de-voted .

The law of highways Is simple andclear. Kvery person has an equal rightwith any other to use any public highwayat any time for travel, either on foot, onbeast, or with any vehicle or conveyanceby which he simply pusses over the roadand leaves it reasonably undisturbed forthe next passer; and upon ever travelerrests the duty of so using the road as not

to Injure or unreasonably impede anyother who may be exercising the sameright and observing the same duty there-on. A bicycle rider or a traction enginehas an equal right to the highway with aman on horseback or with a wagon.

Pancakes in Variety.

On cold winter mornings pancakes ofall kinds hold an important place at thebreakfast table. The cherished buck-wheat cake, most prominent of all fromThanksgiving Day until early Spring isseldom absent from the morning meal inthe genuine American household. Whenproperly made, this is the most deliciousof all the griddle cakes, but it lias beenagainst it when made from yeast or risenover night that it Wa» difficult to makelight and sweet, and that disagreeableeffects frequently followed its eating. Itis found that by the use of the Royal Bak-ing Powder to raise the batter these ob-jections have been entirely overcome, andthat buckwheat cakes are made a mostdelicious food, light, sweet, tender andperfectly wholesome, that can be eatenby anyone without the slightest digestiveinconvenience. Once tested from thefollowing receipt, noothtrwill be used:Two cups of buckwheat, one cup ofwheat Hour, two tablespoons of RoyalBaking Powder, one half teaspoonful ofsalt, all sifted well together. Mix withmilk into a thin batter and bake at onceon a hot griddle.

The purest and richest syrup is madeby dissolving sugar in Ihe proportion ofthree pounds of sugar to one pint ofwater. Many persons prefer the flavorof syrup made of Orleans sugar to thatmade of the white.

Rice griddle cakes are very delicious.The rice is cooked until perfectly soft,drained dry, maRhed with a spoon uutilthe grains are well broken up. For eachcupful of rice take two eggs, one pint ofmilk, one heaping tablespoon of RoyalBi.king Powder, one-half teaspoonful ofsalt, and flour enough to make a thinbatter.

For hominy cakes take two cupfuls ofcooked hominy, and crush it with a po-tato-masher until it is a smooth mass.Add one level teaspoonful of salt, twoteaspoonfuls of Koval Baking Powder,and onecupful of flour. Stir together;then add by degrees one quart of milk,and lastly three well beaten eggs. Bakeiu thin cakes.

Very delicate and delicious cakes aremade by allowing two teaspoonfuls ofRoyal Baking Powder and one-half tea-spoonful of salt to one quart of milk, andsufficient corn meal, mixing all into asmooth, iliin batter; no eggs or butterare used for these. The cakes bakequickly to a rich deep brown, and areextremely tender and light,

A very delicious, sweet pancake is madeby taking one pint of sweet milk, foureggs, two tablespoonfuls of powderedsugar, two tablespoonfuls of melted but-ter, one teaspoonful of Royal BakingPowder, and (lour enough to miko a stiltbntter. Beat the egga, whites and yolksseparately, until well frothed, stir thebutter, sugar, and one cupful of floor,into which the baking powder has beenmixed, into the yolks, then add the milk.If needed, add more flour. Bake in smallcakes, butter each one as it conies fromthe fire, place four in a pile, with verythin layers of any kind of sweet jellybetween and powdered sugar over thetop. They should be baked very thinand four served to each person.

BOUNCED OUT OF IOWA.

Prof. Dickie, who is the bead, front,wheel-liorse, general manager and chair-man of the national committee »f theprohibition party, attempted to go downinto Iowa ami tench the people their po-litical duty to the third party, but theydidn't want him there, and resented hiscoining. In f:ict, plainly told him thathe was not wanted. The State organ ofthe W. C. T. lJ., the Iowa Messengerread this lesson to him :

"The presence of the chairman of thenational committee of the prohibitionparty in €owa with the avowed purposeof organizing that party in the state, butproves that party prohibitionists are morevitally interested in the 'propaganda' ofa part}' than in the success of prohibition.With the prohibition so much a successin this state without separate party ac-tion, and its further success absolutelydependent upon the continued policy ofnon-party action, it can he nothing lessthan malice aforethought which insti-gates an active part}' prohibition cam-p:ii rn in Iowa under the direct directionof the national prohibition party."

To add to this the Iowa Methodist,which occupies a like position in thatstate to the Christian Advocate in thisstate, warned temperance people not tofall into the trap, and Chairman Prof.Dickie left Iowa, canceling all of hisappointments.

Probably the saddest Incident connectedwith the recent great storm in the eastwas the effect upon the legislatures ofNew York and Xew Jersey. It actuallycaused an adjournment of those bodiesfor two or three days! For two or threedays the people of those states were de-prived of the combined wisdom andcounsels of their legislative solonsl What8 loss of life and property to such a ca-lamity!!!

Will our free trade friends please pointto a period in the history of this nat'on•when it prospered under that policy?Every time, without exception, when thefree trade element of this nation has be-come uppermost, a season of great commercial and business depression has fol-lowed. And mark the prediction, dearreader, it will be the sure result if triedagain.

Wellington R. Burt, Hie great demo-cratic Chieftain, of the Saginaw valley.who wants to run for governor, is presi-dent of the Michigan salt association,which is a pool or trust. Directly afterlie took the position, the association ad-vanced the price of salt 18 cents per bar-rel, or from 02 to 70 cents. And yet ourfrea trade friend of the Argus wouldmake you believe that all monopolistswere republicans and member! of thetariff party.

D. BethunB DufHeld, of Detroit, has fear*that the local option law will prove less etlec-tlve than the tax law. He Is the father ofthe system in Michigan, and many an Indul-gent parent Is blinded to the faults of hisoff»prlng.-Stockbrldge Sun.

In all due deference to the the Sun, weshall have to dispute its assertion. Mr.Duffield is not the parent of the tax sys-tem in Michigan. That law was bornright here in this city, born of necessity,and It has served a moat excellent pur-pose. The first liquor tax law ever inthis state was an ordinance drafted byZina P. King, Esq., during his term ascity attorney of Ann Arbor, and fromthat has come the more general lnwiadopted by this and other •!

Urge the proper officials to keep theroads, especially the hills, free from.small rollinc stones. It is a comparative-ly ea«y matter to do this, and the cost isvery small. We have a double Interestin this, but farmers und all are very muchinterested. More horses have had legsbroken by these small rolling stones thanfrom other causes arising from defects inthe highway.

The celery raisers have formed a"treat," or in other words have pooledtheir interests. Now do you know wherethe blame comes in? Very easily an-swered. The tariff, of course ! To besure there is no tariff on celery, but thatmakes no difference, the tariff is to blamejust the same. If we didn't have a tariffabout «ne half the people who now buycelery couldn't afford to buy it all andthen of oourse there would be no excusefor a monopoly. Do you see?

Some of our democratic newspapersattempt to criticise Senator Ingall'aspeech, because he referred in uncom-plimentary terms to Hancock and Mc-Clellan. But these same papers have nota word of condemnation for the red-hotrebel speech of Senator Vest which wasan insult to every soldier who wore theblue, and to which the speech of Ingall'swas a reply. But then, the gray appearsto he on top now, and the northern demo-cratic journals dare not offend their bed-fe!l«\vs.

If any one thinks he can pack a caucusthisspriug with impunity—or non-voters—just let him glance over the provisionsof the new election law and see what hethinks about it:

I'tiilcr the law no one is entitled tovote at a caucus who is not a legal voterol the township, village or voting districtIn which the caucus is held, and any onevotes under a name not his own or iitentioually votes without the right to doso,or fraudulently conceals or destroys ba"lots cast, or who shall In any way inten-tionally or wrongfully deposit ballots inthe box or take them, or commit anyother fraud or wrong tending to affecthe result shall be deemed guilty of amisdemeanor, and liable to a tine not toexceed $1,000 or imprisonment not exceeding one year or both. A personchallenged by a lawful voter will have tomake oath that he is a legal voter and afalse oath is perjury. The presidin_officers and the inspectors (tellers) are re-quired to sign and swear lo an oath si milar to that required of inspectors.

The recent great storm in the east suggests to one's mind how easily the ele-ments could combine to sweep off theface of the earth not only the whole human family, butall the monuments rearciby brain and muscle: our houses, ourtemples, our great libraries, iu fact every-thing that exists. If it is desired to per-petu ite in an enduring manner our history for future people aud nations to readover, it might be well for the governmento have made a library or' books (rwrhapafter the fashion of books for the blindin baked clay, that fires could not burnnor moilis aud rust destroy, and havetin in stored in some great vault made toendure the ravages of time and the de•troylog element*. Else our history andour literature may be swept from tinface of the globe, even as was that of theChaldeans and Assyrians, which the »ntlqnarlana are now catching glimpsesofrom inscribed tablets found in moundaud luins where they have lain fothousand! upon thousands of years.

The Howell Republican, which hasbeen a linn and earnest worker for ternperance and local option always, has thisto say of the recent treachery of the pro-hibition leaders in that place:

The Republican did not and does noiquestion the right of the third party tonominate whosoever It pleases. Whawe did and do question Is the good faithof the leaders of the movement. Thewoikers at the polls exhibited more inter-est in securing votes for the democraticnominee for president than for their own,and this in the light of their loud andoft repeated declarations that a manbound by word and deed to the strict en-forcement of the prohibitory law shouldbe elected. And the Republican is notalone In the view of their actions. Manydemocrats, while acknowledging the ser-vice leudered. condemn the course pur-sued by those professed apostles of mo-rality as hypocritical in the extremestsense. The saloon keeper who comesout boldly and works for his business isentitled to more respect than those who,masking their real purpose under thecloak of morality anil religion, seek todelude the public. If the course pursuedby those proteased moralists at the pollslast Monday is a specimen of the coursenecessary to be pursued to elevate thethird party to the high position soughtthen we predict its speedy dissolution, aswe do not believe the lank and tile o"that party will countenance it.

FROM THE PEOPLE.

Another Pointer for the Argus.

ED. COURIER:—Because I could not seelow an increase In the use of lumber inhis country would not cause an increasedlestruction of our forests, against whichieseoration the Argus lifts up its voice inears and wailings, that sheet begs me to

ponder this problem :"Why not allow the Canadian work-

men, who are imported by Alger, Pal-mer, and our other lumber millionaires,referring probably to Fisher, Burt, Ne*-

ter, all good democrats,but not mentioned:>y the Argus for various reasons,) to de-stroy the forests of this state, cut downthe Canadian forests, and let our farmersand mechanics have the benefit of thetwo dollars per thousand feet ot lumbernow paid as duty. Will the extra num-ber of houses now built destroy theAmerican or Canadian forests? TheseCanadian working men in thin countryaiil no one here but the lumber barons.Why not allow them to stay at home,cut timber there and save our forests»"

The only "problem" I can find in thenbove, is the one as to how the Arguswill get out of the mire into which it hasunwittingly plunged itself.

The position of this paper as it plainlystates, is this : 1st. It desires the tur-tlier destruction of Michigan pine foreststo cease. This means of course thethrowing out of employment of thousandsof workmen, the shutting down of allour great saw mills, the ruin of all Brailof limited capital engaged iu the busi-ness, and the closing out and winding upof one of the greatest industries In theUnited States. 3d. It desires that Can-adian lumbermen shall return home, golo work in Canadian forests, cut as muchand as fast as possible, increase the reve-nues of the Cunadin government by in-creasing the "timber dues," paid byholders of timber limits, ship the lumberInto Michigan free of duty, and therebybuild up Canadian interests at the ex-pense of Michigan capital, industry andprosperity! With thit state of things,with Canada the sole producer of thelumber used here, and the sole dictatorof the price thereof, will the Argus, in itsastuteness, please tell us how muchcheaper lumber would be then than now?And how much better off would ourfarmers and mechanics be? What wouldbecome of the workmen (and their fami-lies) now employed in our pine woods?But, bosh! The position of the Argus inits desire to ruin our "lumber barons,"and crush out our great industry, is sowild and so untenable, as to make an or-dinary anarchist blush with shame.

And yet the teachings of the Argus inthis "problem" are in accord with th<principles of its party. Any way tobreak down American manufactures andreduce wages. The Argus advocatesCanadian lumber in preference to Michi-gan lumber; the employment of Cana-dian lumbermen at home; the idleness ofour workmen here; the admission anduse of free foreign wool, in preference tothe product of American sheep, the removal of the duty on salt, which costsbut 59 cents per barrel, and the reten-tion of duty' on sugar (wbieh rich andpoor alike must use) which costs $14 perbarrel, and so on to the end. 'Twas everthus. Inconsistency and democracy havebeen ayuunomoiu terms ever since thefoundation of that party, and from pres-ent indications will ever continue to be.

The St. Patrick's Banquet.

Piobably one of the most pleasing andhappy occasions which has taken placein this city for a long time, was the aniiiial banquet given by the Ami ArborLand League, at Hangsterfer's hall lasFriday evening, in honor of St. Patrick'sDay. There were covers laid for 100guests, and every cover waR uncovered.The hall was handsomely decorated forthe occasion, the chief feiture being aline picture of "that grand old man,'Gladstone, draped with American andIrish fl igs, while emblems appropriate t<the the day were all about the room. Thetables were placed in the form of a eroaf,and the contents—thU Is told us by goodJudges—wore never surpassed by anybanquet ever served therein. A portionot the evening was spent in pleasant con-versation in the parlors of the hall untian adjournment lo the banquet room van-announced.

Edward Duffy, the gentleman uiioirour Uncle Samuel lias appointed to at-tend to his postal business at this place,presided, aud announced the opening ofthe mental refreshments with a few ap-propriate remarks with reference to Ire-land and the duty of her sons as citizensof this republic, "tlie grandest nation onwhich the sun ever shone." Mr. Duffythough brief, crowded many gooi!thoughts and wholesome Ideas into bisremarks.

The first response was from Mr. Geo,B. Greening, lo the sentimeut, "TheDay we Celebrate," and he presentedsome very appropriate thoughts, tracingthe history of tills festival from its earli-est period up to the present time.

Quite appropriate to this speech camethe good old song, "The Harp thut OnceThro' Tara's Hnll," rendered by MissRose Seerey iu such a sweet and pleasingmanner as to merit much applause andpraise.

Mr. C. V. O'Conner had " Tlie Piesident of the United States " to respond to,and he did it with eloquent words, re-ceiving the credit of being surpassed bynone of the speakers of the evening. Hewas brief, but every word counted, andevery sentence rounded a well-madepoint. A charm of public speaking thatbut tew possess.

"The Trials of Ireland," were told byN. P. Whelan, who reviewed the woesand heartaches, the trials and problemsof the Emerald Isle for the many yearspast, but predicted for her a bright fu-ture.

Jas. E. Harkins didn't speak, althoughhe is known to be way up on toad-era,but he sang of "That Letter that XcierCame," in his inimitable and happy stylethat has crowned him In the minds of hisfellow citizens, a peer if not a superiorof Scanlan.

Perhaps the very best toast of the even-ing to which to respond was that assignedto T. D. Kearney: "Gladstone," andright well did "Tom" handle it. He pic-tured the famous English statesman ina happy light, telling of his help forIreland through all of his career of lateyears, and of his determination not tocease until justice should be meted out tothat beautiful green isle of the eea.

Mrs. Seger, accompanied by Prof.Kenipf on the piano, sang two or threesongs in such a manner as to fairly entrance the audience.

Mr. J. W. O'Hara told of "The IrishRace in America." He pictured them asbeing true to the land of their birth andthrice true to the land of their adoption

MAYOR SMITH'S REPORT.

The Financial Condition of the city isnot just what it ought to be or as I wouldIke to have it, but I am not to blame fort. Last year the treasurer used up about[orty-four hundred and some odd dollars,which his bondsmen made good to thecity. Since tlie firft of April he usedtwenty-one hundred and odd dollars.The city holds a mortgage on real estate,one lot of which it is the first mortgage,und second on the balance of the prop-srty. It includes his and his mothers in-;ere«t in the said property. There is alsoabout four hundred dollars now In theCourt which, if decided in favor of thecitv, we shall get out nearly whole.

Electric Light) have been tried a littleover one year. Through the central andbusiness part of the city it is well lighted.In the outskirts of the city there is needof more lights, then the whole city wouldbe well lighted throughout, but owing tothe great cost of the light, the city haslad to go very slow. If the expensejoaMi by some means, be reduced so thatwe could add thirty or forty more lightsin the city, it would be very desirable.Then. I think, that they should be lighteduntil about half-past three o'clock a. ni.To do all of this it will require moremoney than is at the disposal of tliecouncil for this purpose.

Water Works. Owlnjr to tlie greatdrought for the past two years they werea little short in the supply of water. Thecompany have added one new boiler Intheir engine room, an Improvementwhich was very much needed. Mr.Hamilton informs me that they are goingto put in new pumps next season. Thiswill be a very desirable improvement, asit will protect us in case of an accident toany part of the pumps now in use. Buteverything considered, they have donevery well indeed, when you consider themagnitude and extent of the drought.

Fire Department. There should be ageneral over-hauling of this departmentas there is plently of room for Improve-ment. We can have a paid departmentwith three new hose carts to be drawnwith horsepower, to be manned with fouror five men to each. Could dispensewith the fire engine and a large numberof men. Ttie whole expense would notbe more that three or five hundred dollarsmote than at present. With the hookand ladder company, we would then havea more efficient fire department. The de-partment does as well as it is possiblewith that with which they have to do.The tire department is composed of asgood men as you can find in any fire de-partment In the country. They havebeen very much neglected by the Councilin not being given more and better sup-plies. If you want a real good fire de-partment you must pay someone for do-ing tlie work and to look after its wants.

Charter Ch,inges. There are many im-provements that could be made in ourcharter. First, the Mayor and Recordershould be deprived of the right to vote.Tlie Recorder should be only a recordingofficer, should be clerk for all ot the standing committees, should have an office inthe Fireman's Hall, should keep all thepapers and records of the city, shoulddevote his whole time to the office, andshould be paid a salary sufficient to securethe best men for the office. As it is now,the city loses hundreds of dollarsannually by its papers not being caredfor. The Recorder is not to blame, asyou furnish him ouly one email desk foithe storing of all the archives of tlie cityThe result is, that the city's papers anscattered all over the city in boxes andcellars.

Second, You elect a mayor and <rlv<him no power and then you elect a Council with him that will remove an officequicker for doing his duty than for thineglect of it. You then start off amblame the mayor and think that you havedone your whole duty as citizen. TheMayor should have the veto power. Tluappointing of the Treasurer, Marshaland Patrollmen, with power to rernovtat will. You then fix the responsibilityupon one man. As it is now, It Is orfourteen men and It is almost impossibleto remove an officer, as it is a very easymatter to manufacture sympathy amongthat number which prevent their beingremoved. Under this change when theMayor called on the Treasurer for amonthly statement he would not neglecimaking it for months and so with all othe officers, they would all be on time.

You elect men for Aldermen that youwould not trust to expend a thousancdollars for you but you are willing thathey should expend over tweuty-fiv<thousand dollars for the city annuallyEven the Council that you elect thispring may be the very one that will «xpend one hundred thousand dollars.

Sewerage. One of the great wants othis city to-day is a proper and completesystem of 6ewerage. It wants the bestmen and s>ll of the best wisdom of suchmen to adopt a plan that will not provetotal failure after you have expendedthousands of dollars in its constructionIf the system of using two sewer pipes,one for reffuse aud the other to carry offthe surface water of the streets, shouldbe adopted for tlie whole city, it is myopinion that It will prove a failure. Toomany sewers fail on account of being toosmall to carry off the amount that isthrown into them. If this is not soon at-tended to and a complete system of sew-erage put into this city, it will only be afew years at the most when this city willhave lost the honor of being the healthi-est city of its size in the country. Itmeans a debt of about one hundredthousand dollars. It will take all ornearly all of this amount to put in a goodand complete system of sewerage. It isa hard city to sewer, as the main sewermust extend through the ,city and downbelow some distance, say to the Bunkerdam. There must be no mistake as tothe size of the main sewer. It had bttterbe a little too large than too small Thisis a matter that needs attention. If ne-glected too long, the city will suffer bydisease that will make great havoc andstrike terror to its inhabitants when it Istoo late. For this reason alone it becomesdoubly important for you to elect thebest men for the Council.

I am afraid of debt and believe Inkeeping- down the taxes as much as any-one iu the city, but I do believe In doingwhatever the city does, thoroughlyIf a good and complete system of sewer-age is put into this city it will do more toimprove the health and more to boom thetown than any one thing alone that canbe done. VV. B. SMITH, Mayor.

An investigation of the matters relativeo carelessness in exposing children In<ne of our ward scho >ls to diphtheria, asbarged by a correspondent lust week,iroves the same to have been unfoundedn that particular instance. There is noueslion, however, but throughout theity generally too little care is paid to thepleading of contagious diseases.

Ann Arbor town expended through itsilghwny commissioner the psst year, theuni of $1,298. Of this amount, $875

were expended for bridges, culverts, and;eneral highway improvements; $133or opening a new street leading fromWest Huron st. to Washington St., out-ide the city limits. The sum ot $300

was expended for three new road ma-hines.The State Dental Association is in

pssion at the Dental College, and a livelyIght is being waged over the question of

advertising. The sticklers for the absurdcode of dental ethics, which makes It amisdemeanor for a dentist to secure ad-vertising to be paid for (nothing againsthe gratis ads) are being fought hard by>. C. H. Land of Detroit, who Is sup->orted by Dr. J. A. Robinson, of Jack-nri, the president of the association. Dr.,iind has a righteous cause, and in the

end he will triumph if not now.

The court house is now insured forS55.000, in twelve different companies,iinl rated nt$l instead of $1.50 as hereto:ore, a saving to the eouuty Mr. Buttse'ls us, of $270 for the three years. Nowhe proper committee should at onceake that amount of money, or more iflecessary, and fix the roof so that it will

not Irak and destroy the inside of theluilding. It is a shame to have thehe walls of such a fine structure ruinedrom roof to basement by water trick-ing and pouring down them.

There is a barber shop in the 5th wardrfthis city which is a regular gymnasium,lental and tonsorial parlor combined.

They have dumb bells, Indian clubs andall that tort of thing for their customers,and a dental student puts in some timepracticing his profession. He has got to>e such an expert that people go there

and have their teeth pulled just for pleas-ure, and he doesn't charge them a centtherefor. Then to add to all this JimSharpe relates tales of the Indian borderlife that are superior to three-fourths ofthose published in the dime novel line. It.s probably one of the very beat patron-zed establishments in the city.

Dr. Frothingham lias moved his officefrom the Hamilton block to the buildingon Fifth tt., near the corner of Wash-ington St., some years ago owned and oc-cupied by Dr. Parsons as an office. Thenew quarters will not be as central as theold ones, but will be more convenient formany feeble ones who dread the climbingof stairs. The Doctor will have thingslitted up In good stylo, and the excellenttaste of Ids most excellent assistant. Dr.Phillips, will be brought into requisitionin fixing it up. [Since the above was intype, the Dr. has changed his mind, andwill stay where he is, but we are notgoing to lose so good an item as thatthese hard times, by a long shot.]

There Is probably no one man to whomnewspaper men of this city are moreindebted than to Thomas J. Keech, theadmirable manager of the telephone ex-change of this city. Mr. Keech for yearshas went to considerable trouble and ex-pense to secure for the journalists herefull and complete returns from the entirecounty on the nights of election, thusenabling them to complete their tablesat an early date. This he did at the re-cent local option election, according tocustom, besides rendering courtesies alother times and in other ways. It is notsurprising to learn that such a man issuccessful in his undertakings. And onecan imagine that when the writer of thisitem was informed the other day that theAnn Arbor office was among the bestmanaged iu this state, and eveu In theunion ; that fewer complaints came fromhere about the service; and that moreconfidence was reposed in the manageinent tlmn in any other place In the stateone can imagine, we repeat, that the Information fell upon welcome ears. "Maihe live long and prosper," is the wish oall Ann Arbor quill drivers for MrKeech.

Our City Affairs.

With this issue of the COCRIKR isgiven In supplement form the annualtatement of the city's financial condition,ogether with the expenditures for the'ear, and to whom the money went. Ithows the receipts to have been $34.-

384.25 (stripped of the $1,500 transferccount) and the expenditures $38,201.51,ess the same %.

These expenditures include the $5 000roted by the M. C. R. R. improvements,nd $500 given to Mr. Carey for the ex-bange of property which he made, also2,156 court bouse bonds. Taking outhose extraordinary expenses and themount used In all the various depart-

ments of the city, including the supportf the poor, only reaches the modest sumf $30,545.51. It must be rememberedhat this last amount includes water hy-rant rental and electric lights.Will the good natured gentleman who

as endeavored to make a bug-bear ofur city expenses show lisa city in Michi-

'an of 8,000 or 10,000 inhabitants thatan make as creditable a showing, anday nothing about water works or elec-ric street lights ? It can't bo done.There is not a city in Michigan so

conomically administered and possessingo many of1 the modern improvementss does this city at so little cost. Thegures can be given to prove this asser-ion if desired.

Unless the city should deem it wise toommence the construction of a system of"!wers there will be a considerable reduc-on next year for there will be no courtouse aid bonds to pRy then and noridges to pay for. making a reductionf upwards of $7,500.00 from this year'sxpenses. But our city is growing andmprovements are continually necessary,t cannot be expected that the annualudget will be the same as when it wasnly a village.As has been suggested in these columns

many times, there are some changeshich ought to be made in our charter

nd made at once. The city cannotflford to a lopt a "penny wise and poundoolish policy." It should pay its officers

sufficient salary to secure the bestalent to transact Its business. The mem-ers of the council ought to receive someompensation for the time they give andratuitious censuring on all sides thathey receive.

What man would conduct his privateusiness as the city asks to have its pub-ic business conducted? No sane man.Vhy, then, not have it changed andased on practical business principles?

He has a sweet, low voice, and amost expressive vocabulary. Angell hasseen most of the world, and read all ofthe best books in It; he knows the menand things of many climes and lands; isa man of culture, of science and affairs,and has all the simplicity of true great-ness.''

The First "Nasby" Letter.

The late D. R. Locke, as lms til readybeen stated, published the tirst letter ofthe Nasby series iu the Findlay (O.) Jef-ferH>nian. In view of his recent decease,the reproduction of this letter will doubt-less be of interest. Wingert's Corner-(afterwards changed to •'Confederit XRoads") waa a little place in CrawfordCounty, Ohio, whose citizens were rab.idsympathizers with the secession move-ment.WIKGKRT'S CORNERS, March the 21, 1861.

South Carliny A sevral uv the troolyDimercratic States have secesht—gorn orf,I may say. onto a journey after ther rites.

Wingert's Corners, ez troolv Ditnocrat-ic az any uv them, hez follered soot.

A meetin wuz held last uite, uv wich Iwaz chairman, to take the matter uv ourgiievanues in2 consideration, and it wuzdually resolved that nothin bhort of •#>ceslin wood remedy our woes. There-fore the follerin address, which I rit, wuzadoptid and ordered to be publ Uhd:

TO THE WORLD.In takin a step wich may, possibly, it -

volve the State uv wich we have biuheretofore a part into blood aud convul-shuns', a decent respeck for the good opin-ion uv the world requires us to give ourreasons for taking that step.

Wlngert's Corners has too lon<r submit-ted to the Imperious dictates uv a tyraii-ikle G >verument. Our whole histry hezbin one uv aggreshun on the part of theState, and uv meek and pashent endou-ence, on ours.

It refoosed to locate the State Capitol tthe Corners, to the great detriment uvour patriotic owners uv real estate.

It refoosed to gravel the street uv theCorners, or even relay the plank road.

It refoosed to locate the penitentiary atthe Corners, notwit'istandin we do moreto fill it up than any town in the State.

It refoosed to locate the St ite Fair atthe Corners, blasting the hopes uv ourpatriotic groserys.

It located the canal one hundred milesfrom the Corner*.

We have never lied a Guvuer, notwitli-standin the President uv this meetin he-lived here for yeer.-, a waitiu to be uryedto accept it.

It lies compelled us, yeer after veer, Iopay our share uv the taxes.

It has never appointed any citizen uvthe place to any offls wher theft was l>of-aible, thus willfully keepin capital awayfrom us.

It refoosed to either pay our rale-rodesubscripshun or slackwater our river.

Therefore, not bein in humor longer toindoor sich outrages, we declare oursel-ves Free and Independent uv the State,nud will maintain our position with arms,if need be.

There win a lively time next day. Acompany uv minlt men wuz raided, and

wun uv 2 minit men. The seceshn flag,muskrat rampant, weasel couchant, on afield de 'egg-shell, waves from both gro-aerys. Our merchant feels hopeful. Cutorf frrnn the State, direct trade with theBlack SwHiiin'follera; releest from bit in-debtedness to Cinciuati, he will agin liltup his head. Our representative hasagreed to resine—when his term expires.

We are in earnest. Armed with justiceand shotguns, we bid the tyrant* detiance.

P. S.—The feelin is intense—The child-ren have imbibed it. A lad just past, dis-playin thesecesh flag. It waved from be-hind. Disdainin concealment, the linn-hearted biy wore a roundabout. Weare firm.

K. H.— We are still firm.N. B., 2d.—We are firm unyieldin,

calm and resolont.PETROLEUM V. N A S B T .

It wil! be noted that at this time Dea-con Pogram and other inhabitants of the"Corners,', whose characteristic individ-uality gave to the letters so much of airof reality, had not been invented.

Suggestions Worth Rpmemberlug;.

Never let tea boil.Hold a hot shovel over furniture to re-

more white spots.To extract ink from wood, scour with

sand wet with water and ammonia. Thenrinse with strong salerattis water.

To give a good oak color to pine floorwash with a solution of one pound ofcopperas dissolved iu one gallon of stronglye.

To whiten the hands melt half an ounceof camphor gum, half an ounce of gly-cerine and one pound of mutton tallow.and apply every night.

A hornets' nest which has been de-serted by the hornet-, bound on thethroat with a piece of flannel, will curethe most malignant sore throat.

Salt and water will prevent the hairfrom falling nut and cause new hair togrow. Do not use so strong as to leavewhite particles upon the hair when dry.

Mildew is easily lemoved by rubbingcommon yellow soap on the article, andthen a little salt and starch on that. Ruball well on the article and put iu the sun-shine.

To restore gilding to picture frames,remove all dust with a soft brush, andwash the gilding in warm water In whichan onion has been boiled; dry quicklywitli soft rags.

Mahogany furniture should be washedwith warm water and soap; an applica-nt' beeswax and sweet oil upon a softcloth, and polished with chamois gives arich finish.

Blackheads may be removed by wash-ing the face at night with hot water,then drying briskly with a crash toweland applying a mixture of one ounce ofliquor of potassa and two ounces of co-logne.

When the face is constantly pale, batheIt in cold or tepid water, rub brisklywitli a soft towel, and apply daily thispreparation: One 011 no- of dilute liquidammonia, two ounce* of glycerine and fourounces of water. Rub well into the skinfor about three minutes, then carefullywipe with a soft towel. If any irritationis lelt, increase the glycerine.

A free application of soft Soap to aburn almost instantly removes the firefrom the flesh. If tlie injury Is very se-vere, as soon as the pain rvusrs, applylinseed oil, and then du*t over with lineflour. When this covering dries hard,repeat the oil and flour dressing until agood coating is obtained. When the lat-ter dries, allow it to stand until it cracksand falls off, as it will do in a day or two,snd a new skin will be found to haveformed where the skin was burned.

Everjbody Likesto be called handsome, especially theyoung ladies. But that is simply impos-sible as long as their face is covered withpimples, blotches and sores. But wait,there is no need of \\\\>; one or twn bot-tles ol Sulphur Hittera will remove allsuch dteltqurations, and make your facefair and rosy.—Fannie Bell, Editress.
