    time the explanation was ended, half
past eleven.
"No help for it, John; wo must
wait for the down train ; we couldn't
i
} ick up a horse, nor yet a pair, that
would be ready to st trt at this time
of night and get us to YY neelborotigh
before a quarter past two. Ocme,
old fellow, cheer up; it's no use tak
ing for granted every tiling you<j
dread!"
lint Geoige Fergusson thought in
his own mind that matters looked
Mack enough to justify any amount
of fears, and had hard work to find
hopeful talk for the next two hours
Had it not been for the manifest ab
surdity of the thing, his brother
would have started fur his home on
foot even. To hit excited, restless
mind the minutes dragged wearily
along, while to his heavy heart every
moment added a fresh fear.
At last the shrill whistle, the glar
ing lights creeping nearer and nearer,
the minute's stoppage, and then off
again homeward— homeward .'—and
lie began to dread the moment he
longed for.
At Wheelborough more time would
have been occupied in knocking up
the hotel people and seeking a con
veyance than would have been sained
bad they chanced to find a horse.
So the two brothers struck out at
once from the station on their live
mile walk; and, as they left the fur
ther outskirts of the town, the church
clock chimed half past two o'clock.,
George Fergusson could barely
keep up with his brother's rapid'
stride, and thought him half crazy
with excitement when he saw him
lightly leap a ditch, and start 1 mi
ning across a broken piece of beatli.
"For Heaven's sake, man, top!"
be cried. "What are you after?"
"A short-cut!"' shouted the other,
and kept up running well for nearly
three-quarters of a mile.
The night had quieted, the rain i
had ceased, and gleams of moonlight
showed them their way. Out on the
road again, past the fourth mile- :
stone, past a cottage where a shrill
cuckoo clock sang "three;" then up
a long hill that took what little
breath they had left out of them,
through the sleeping village, and—
"George," cried the rector, point
ing to his own house, not a stone's
throw distant, "look at that light!'
And through the long narrow win
dow of the oratory a light shone
plainly.
"Good God, If we are too late!"
The brothers scarcely knew how
they covered the short r< raaining dis
tance. A blow at the hail window,
and their united force at the shutters
within, and they made good their
entrance, to see—bate Tergus-on ic
ing senseless on the floor, to hear the
wailing and crying of cLtldven over
head, and a strange sound oi" low
voices wLisp ring and hands cutting
away at woodwork.
Late indeed they were, Out not too
late. An out-door bell, set clanging
soon called ready help i'rm the vil
lage; while .lane, already loused by
the tounds, but too frighted l<> v- n
turc from her room aionc, bu-ied
herself over her unconscious mis
t rcs3.
Toe captives in tin oratory fought
like cats, and one of them gave
George Fergusson a bite in th< arm
the mark of which he will carry as
long as lie lives. That was "Rough
Hick." * Gentleman Jim" turned sul
len, and submitted to the force of num
bers at the lost with a better grace.
The gang t<> which tie iw . thie-<
belonged had received all their infor
mation from Sarah's brother, who
was a sort of hanger-on to their
brotherhood, and to whom bad been
intrusted the sending of the lving
telegram which bad so comfortably
disposer! of the master of the house.
"All's well," they say, "t hat ends
well;" and our tale i- no exception
to the proverb, ll was rather a long
getting well, though, in the ease of
-Mrs. Fergusson; still she was her
own bravehearted ielf again by
Christ mas-time; and—take note of
this, all wives— never did she show
her husband the letter she had found;
never did she tell him, or anv one
else, that his own bit ol' carelessness
had probably supplied the "correct
time" to the intruders.
Rosie and Ruth were none the
worse for their fright, but used to
play at "robbers" with spirit all
through the winter an 1 spring.
And for a piece of happiness to
end with, though Mr. Fergusson the
elder did not have a tit and die, he
did have a fit of another kind—of re
pentance for his prejudice against
bis daughter-in-law; mi he made rep
aration by a very handsome increase
to their income. And as for the rec
tor. after the wild joy of having his
wife safe again, he declares his
"courting days" have all relumed.

y A dispatch from Philadelphia,
dated Tuesday night -ays: Philadel
phia gives over twenty-six thousand
for the New Constitution, and the
State is estimated to have given
150,000 for it. .
Tiie New Constitution lias taken
so much of our space for four weeks
past that we have been crowded out
of our proper place and have not felt
at home. It is very pleasant to come
back to our old position and talk
with the rentiers of the Jot bnai. from
our rightful standpoint. And yet
for so good a cause we will cheerfully
give way at any time.
/It gives us unusual pleasure to
inform our reader- that all danger of
a war with Spain, growing out of the
Yirejiniu* affair has passed avvavy
The disgraceful spectacle of two Re
publics trying to destroy each other
will not be witnessed while Castellar
is President of Spain and Grant is at
the head of affairs in the United

The Imperative Duty of Congress.
Very much has been sr-id and
written about the duty of Congress
to regulate the finances so as- to give
relief to the business of the country.
\Ye concede in the opinion that some
legislation is desirable. We do not
concur in the statement that the nc
! cessity is any greater now than it
lias been for the past ten y ears. Nor
do we believe that the failure of Jay
Cook A: Co., and of those that fol
lowed was the result of our financial
system or was caused by the scarcity
of our circulating mediums. We be
lieve our whole difficulty has grown
out of the extravagant ideas and ex
i travagant expenditures of the people,
which have naturally led to extrav
agant appropriations by- Congress
for all manner of objects, and these
have induced speculation,loose ideas
of integrity, ami defalcation. The
° " ■
j country can recover its business;
prosperity, although no change
should be made in the laws regulating
the cunency. Rut it cannot recover
from the bud effects oi' extravagant
appropriations, loosencs- in account
ing for funds in the hands of officials,
and the general laxity that has grown
up as to the u-e of public funds. /
The imperative duty of Congress
therefore, as it seems t<> us, is to en
force the most rigid economy cou- is
, ''. Nt with the proper working of the
f jovernment.
The Secretary of the Treasury re
commends an increase of taxation
in order to meet the demands of* the
Tre usury occasioned by the falling
off of receipts since the panic affeet
• d the business of the country. YVe
* trust Congress will do nothing of the
kind, but will do what prudent men
in the management of their private
affairs do—decrease their expenses
till they come within their income.
If Congress will simply refuse to
appropriate money not needed for
the legitimate expenses of Govern
ment there will be no need for in
creased taxation. Not a dollar for
steamship subsidies, nor for railroad
xtmisions. Pay ships and railroads
. lair price for carrying the mails and
for other services, but not a dollar
for subsidies. Apply the same rule
to all other outside objects, and tin*
present taxation will furnish an am
ple reined v.
1
And this work of enforcing econo
my and saving taxation must lie done
by the Republican members of Con
gress or it will not be done at all.
1 l ey will receive little aib from the
Democratic members. These accept
Fernando Wood as their leader, and
lie is one of the most notorious of the
corruptionists. No good can be ex
jiected of a member of Congress that
Voted to make Fernando Wood
Speaker.
The only hope of reform is in the
Republican members, and they may
as well face the fact that the people
are in earnest and will have reform.
The Republican members of Congress
have tlu' bite of the Republican par
ty in their hands. Honest and eco
nomical legislation will give the Re
publican party new life. Incieased
taxation and extravagant expendi
tures will bring its speedy overthrow,
and this is the way Democratic mein
beis should vote—for increased tax
ation—for the people expect nothing
better of them.
Ox T!IF. first day of January,
the Elmira Adcertis-r, daily and
weekly, will apjear in an entire and
beautiful new dress. The daily edi
tion will be enlarged by the a Id it ion
of one column to each page ami such
increased length as will make the
whole sym inet rieal.
This enlargement, so far as size i>
concerned, will place the Adcrrh*cr
in the very front rank of the daily
press of the state.
In politics the Adrertiser will ad
vocate in the future, as it has in the
past, those great principles of funda
mental justice upon which only a
government "of the people, by the
people, for the people," can hope to
endure. Those principles have eon
■oituted the corner stone and the
strength of the Republican party and
are the bulwark upon which it must
continue to depend.
LET ALL who remember L heir
school days with any interest gratify
themselves by a vi-.it to their own
district school pretty frequently. Do
you think what an event it was when
the directors, (trustees perhaps they
were calle i then), came in for a half
hour and "you were all on your best
behavior, and called to read or do
something to show what progress
you were making and that you were
improving your time. How you eare
yfully slipped oil" the piece of shingle
from the window let the wind
blow straigiit on the visitors so they
would notice that the glass needed
mending, or how you passed the
water ostentatiously with the bright
new flipper Mr. Blank sent to the
j school last week. How the sleepy
little ones brightened up and were
cheery and ready when it became
their turn to read "a b."
But times have altered now and
schools and plans of teaching. If
you forget that once in a while, GO
and see. You will find yourselves
astonished to sec wimt a system that
slip of a girl you hired the other day.
has at her finger ends—Nothing like
' what we were used to.
"Women most of all should visit
the schools. With their deep inter
est in all that concerns the children
and their training, and their clear
vision in children's affairs, they are
especially needed; and it is a great
waste of time to stay at home and
sew, when you might be doing so
much more good by looking in on

The House Judiciary Committee
are hearing pleas in favor of a com
mission to investigate the liquor traf
fic. Many petitions were presented
to the Senate for the appointment, of
such commission.
A BILL to restore the franking
privilege and others, was introduced
in tin- Senate.
In tlfe House
Mr. Hoar, from the Committee on
Education, reported a bill to estab
lish ail educational fund, and to ap
ply the proceeds of the sale of pub
lie lands V> the education of the
people.
A warm debate on the salary bill
ended in its being recommitted in
order to be made more thoroug i.
Mr. Oi'th, of Indiana, thought that
"four propositions had been deflinite
!y settled by public opirion. first,
that the law of last Congress should
be repealed. Second, that mileage shall
never again be restor.a!. Third, that
the 1 ranking privilege, s<> far as relates
to personal privilege of members of
Congress, shall never be restored,
whatever else may be done in regard
to distributing public documents.
And fourth, that the salary of mem
bers of Congress shall be substanti
ally what it was under the old law.
All this he provided for in the pro
position which he hud offered. So
the bill was recommitted to the spe
cial committee with the instructions
proposed by Mr. Orth, and it was
agreed that when the bill shall be re
ported back it will be considered
under the live minute rule."
The House also passed the bill ap
propriating four million dollars for
the extra expenses of the Navy De
partment.
The Committee on Appropriations
brought in resolutions requesting a
revision of the estimated expenses of
the government in ail its depart
ments with a view to avoiding if
possible an increase of taxes to meet
the present exigency.

COI.U.M HI S, S. C. Dev. 1-.—The
charges of corruption made against
Senator Patterson have been dis
missed. and a warrant issued for the
arrest for perjury of Jones, who made
them. The evidence showed the
charges were made to extort money.
HON. SOBIXSKI Ross, representing
this district in Congress, has been
placed on the Committees on Agri
t ulture and Militia, by Speaker
Blaine.
The Evening Pout gives the follow
ing description of some American
fabrics which need only be made
known to the people generally to se
cure a great demand for them: The
preference for onr productions is
pretty general, ami it only needs that
goods should be as good as can be
imported to ensure a ready sale for
any native productions. It seems
like a very unwise thing to mark
home-made goods "imported"* as this
article says is often done, forpeople
.really desirous of buying home pro
ducts cannot be sure of getting them,
and it helps to give credence to the
idea that id I tiiat is good comes from
abroad. It is a wrong to manufac
turers and consumers.
It is natural to speak first of Amer
ican xilks, since all silk forms the
most important part of the modern
wardrobe. As a general thing their
finish is not so line nor their lustre
so rich a- that of European make;
but on their side is the merit of great
er durability. The coloring of one
is equal to tlie coloring of the other.
There are ail qualities, from those at
less than two dollars a vard, which,
like the foreign goods, are apt to
crack after moderate use, to those at
four dollars, or then bouts, which arc
simply not as handsome as the im
ported silks. The grade at two dol
lars, much resembling Pirn's poplins,
is jmrhaps the best kn >wn and most
thoroughly-tested of domestic silks.
It conies in all colors as well as
black, and is said to wash like mus
lin. \S e have heard of one lady who
subjected a black two-dollar siik to
the tubs three times, and who wia
firmly persuaded, after the last bath,
that it looked better than new. We
•know from experience that its endu
ranee seems unlimited, and we can
Heartily recommend it.
Besides the gr > -gain silks there
are beautiful soft twiiied kinds, such
as are usi-d for neckties. These arc
in delicate shades, of plain colors and
plaids of colors and white. Al
though they have been used chiefly
for ties thus far, they are exception
ally pretty for trimming and all sorts
• of drapery, and promise to supercede
crepe de chine to a laige extent,
l'liey are wide—twenty-six inches,
we bi lit ve—and are generally about
three dollars a yard. Then again our
foulards are remarkably handsome,
it lid as ti.e seal of French mode has
been set upon foulard there is no
reason whv we should not take ad
vantage ol it. and bring our own
make into favor. The twiiied vaiie
ties are stronger and prettier than
the plain goods, also a trifle more ex
pensive. The foulards hear nearly
the entire colors of silk, and are
sometimes figured.
Most of our large silk manufac-'
tun rs make ribbons of every hue and
kind, and as soft as the best foreign
qualities. Beltings mid linii g silks,
s wing and embroidery silks, hand
kerchiefs and neckerchiefs—indeed,
almost all descriptions of silk manu
facture are carried on in this country.
There arc many sorts of woolen
goods woven here. Not seldom is it
that domestic products of this order
slip into market marked "imported."
There seems to be an unfounded be
lief that everything which comes to
us ironi across the ocean is good,
merely from that fact, while whatever
is advertised as home-made is regard
ed as of questionable value. Specious
reasoning is offered to prove this;!
and no one will deny that the gener-j
al standard of European productions
is higher than our own; but that
. does not affect instances where ours |
are the equals, sometimes the stipe-j
riors, of their transatlantic rivals.
New England furnishes as hand-!
' some flannels, fellings and balm oral
stuffs as there are in the world. In
other sections excellent alpacas, de-;
lainos and various wool goods are
made, also heavy cloakings, beaver
cloths, broad cloths, fur cloths, water
proof cloths, opera cloths, soft fancy
cloths for jackets and carriage wraps,
divers cloths for gentlemen's use; in
fact, the weaving of almost every rna
tererial into which the fleece of sheep
can be put is among our native in
dustries.
! Cotton fabrics always appear to
; belong of right to Ameii.u. Since
cotton ceased to rule lis we have ruled
it and compelled it into many new
and graceful forms. First is the
muslin, or what New Englanders call
cotton cloth. No better is produced
on the globe. Our mills have great
ly advanced in the last hnlfshizen
years, and it is believed that in an
other quarter of a century they will
surpass the English inilis. which have
heretofore deemed themselves incom
parable. Calicoes, cambrics, divss
muslins, ginghams, brilliants and
kindred materials are as fine ami
graceful and delicate in design when
they boa l- a New Hampshire mark as
when they come from abroad. The
sole deficiency there lias ever been
in the domestic goods i-, in the dye.
It appeared almost impossible to pro
cure permanent colors in American
calicoes. Recently, however, there
has been much improvement in this
I particular, and so far as we know, the
domestic is as trustworthy as the for
eign.
'! Perhaps the fact that trimmings
of various kinds, gimps, braids, bead .
particular styles of lace and fringe,
are the product of our own soil, and
not brought over the water, m iv lie
new to many persons. Certainly it
■ is difficult to keep pace with the ever
increasing activities of out young
and energetic nation. Woven utider
■ clothing and hosiery have been so
long in high repute under the protec
tion of the Eagle that to more than
chronicle the circumstance is need
less.
Everybody who has passed through
North Adams and Lynn knows the
manufacture of shoes to be one of
our largest and best. It, is only a
little while since we heard a young
girl, fresh from Europe, exclaim, "1
am so glad to get back where 1 can
get boots to lit. mc. As far as i have
seen, there are none comparable to
those of America. '* This, too, after
it long nsideiK" abroad had given
her opportunity to test the foot cov
erings ofall the < 'outiucutal countries
as well as England.
The question may be asked. "What
this long list of native products
has to do with fashions if " It ought
to be very pi-tin. Every woman ad
mits that it is the stylo of her dress
rather than its material which gives
it the desired "air." it does not
matter, then, if the stuff .-lie wears be
a trifle less fine than she has been ac
customed to, if in tiie wearing of it
she be really doing a patriotic duty.
To render American goods the fash
ion simply requires thai a few ladies
whose social position i> assured, shall
make a point of purchasing and using
such goods only. The many will
follow the few. Be it once understood
that domestic stud's are the mode,
slid the shopkeepers will withdraw
, the mask of foreign marks from many
familiar tilings, and allow them to
appear with their proper belonging.
Let it be a matter of choice rather
than of necessity to wear the products
of our own looms; and it will not be
long before the national finances will
grow more robust, vviili the new fash
ion of economy set by the rich.

"DREARY weather for Dootmber,"
says one. "sleighing all gone, roads
muddy and rain or sleet drizzling all
the time." "How beautiful and green
the grass is since the snow went off,"
says another; "and what a delightful
break it was in the winter wia:her.
Ah, yes, the storm is rather unpleas
ant, but how comfortably warm it s.''
"Oh dear! such weather for winter.
It must be unhealthy. Don't you
think so?" cries a third. "Not for
me; 1 feel well and enjoy it, but HIU
sorry for the people who have to
travel or work out in the rain."
j Thus it goes on and the weather,
iike all weather, gets its praise and
its grumble. Nevertheless, we sup
pose it is pretty near right.
Amending the National Consti
tution.
President (Irani, in his annual mes
sage to Congress, made many sug
gesth-ns of great importance. Among
these important suggestier.s we count
his recommendation of two amend
ments to t lie Constitution of the
United States,couched in the foiiaw
ing language:
Assuming from the action of the
last Congress in appointing a Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections to
prepare and report to this Congress
a constitutional amendment t<> pro
vide a better method of electing tue
President and Vice President of the
United States, and also, from the ne
cessity of such an amendment, that
there w ill he submitted to the State j
Legislatures for ratification such an
improvement in our Constitution, I
i suggest two others for your consid
eration.
First. To authorize the Executive
to approve of so much of any meas
ure passing the two houses, as his
j judgment may dictate, without ap
j proving the whole, the "disapproved j
1 portion or portions to be subjected
to the same rule* as now, to wit: to
be referred back to the house in which t
the measure or measures originated,
and, if passed by a two-thirds vote of
the two houses, then to become a law
without the approval of the President.
I would add to this a provision that
there should lie no legislation by
Congress during the last twenty-four
hours of its sitting except upon ■
votes, in order to give the Executive
an opportunity to examine and ap
. prove or disapprove bilis under.-.tand
iDgiy* ,
Second. L o provide by amendment
that when an extra session of Con
gress is convened by executive proc
lamation, legislation during the con
tinuance of such extra session shall
be confined to such subjects its the
Executive may bring before it from j
time t< time in writing. The advan
tages to !>e gained ly these two
amendments are obvious. One sec
tion in eaeh year is provided for bv
the Constitution. in which then* are
no restrictions as to the subjects of
legislation by Congress. If more
are required, it is always in the pow
er of Congress, during their term of
office, to provide for se- sioas at any
time. The first.of these amendments
would protect the public in the many
wbuses and wasre of the public mon
eys which creep into appropriation
bills and other important measures
passing during the * xpi ring hours of
Congress, to which otherwise due
consideration cannot be given.
We hope Congress will adopt the
suggestion of tiie President and
promptly correct the evils to which
these proposed sections point.
And when the matter is under con
sideration, we should like to sve an
other amendment proposed that
would put all back-pay * andal away
from the temptation of Congress;
we propose the following:
"Senators and members of the
House of Representatives shall re
ceive >ncii salary as simii lie lixed by
law and no other comjwisation wiuit
ever, whether for service upon com
mittee or otherwise. No riemb rof
either House shall, during the term
for which he may have been elected,
receive any increase of salary, or
mileage under any law passed dur
ing such term.
"No law shall extend the term of
any public ollieer or increase or di
minish his salary or emoluments af
ter his election or appointment."
Starting Right.
Two young men went into a book
store and among other things bought
a Webster's unabridged dictionary.
A few weeks afterward tin \ went in
again and again asked for a diction
ary. \V hiie showing them, the book
seller said to the young man who
was buying: "You bought one here
theotherday, 1 think. "Yes," said the
brother who was standing, by, "but
he was been married since." "Well,"
said the purchaser, slowly, "my folks
wanted to keep that, but if I've got
to run a shanty myself, I must have
a dictionary."
