EEECIICR WEITI3 A LETTER.

ton Thayeiaeb to express his views of
the crillcHmi of bis recent withdrawal
made by various ministers of New Eng
land, says:
Mr Dear Sir : I lliank you for the letter
and papers. I liaoe read the somewhat
larj8 expressions of thrse many and excel
lent men in regard to my etthodoxy, con-
irttney, influence aud goneral merit, with
out wishing for a moment le reply, as yeu
kindly request me. When a dead man is
lying on (ho dissecting table under the
hands of experts, it would be unbecoming
in bim to rise up suddenly and discuss with
his surgeons tho propriety of their methods
aud the truth of results.
It is not often that eno can sea himself as
others eeo him, and especially as Boston
sees him, cud, more than all, as Boston
clergymen ese him. I am icduced to pulp,
but ihsnk Heaven, not to ashes. When
you suggest a reply to these, I am sure yeu
can have no Conception of the subdued and
cnlichtocod statu of my mind. I am bent
on improvement. Laying aside all my old
notions of my beliefs undof my standing, I
am carefully putting together the real man
that I now am taught that I am. When I
get my new pereoual identity together and
a a working elmpc, I intend to study the
logy somewherebough in my nrcsant ion
fusion I cjnnot yctsoe whothor I skall study
I Audovcr or Bostou. Kew Harea is near
er, but Dr. Smyth has been so'.tled tbcre,and
fear laxity ofdoctrino in bis neighborhood
rriucctou is not far to the south of me, but
Dr. McCosh is a Christian evolutionist, and
it would be folly .after what I have suffered
to cotno under the malarial influenced that
philosophy. On tho whole, I incline to
tudy at Park street. But wherover I insy
go I am determined before I die to find a
thccltjgy whivli will pare muster at Bangor,
at Andover, at Cambridge, at lof Uavnn
at Princeton, at Allegheny, at Olierlia,
Chicago, and at Tark street then I shall
willingly die. Yours,

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.
Rays Philadelphia letter : Matthew
S. Qmy, who has been runniug the Stal
wart Stale Ccurmittes for Cumeron, is
said to boj discouraged. A c!sy or two
ago a young Stalwart nnd 'a ptrse-nal
friend railed upon h'm. Tho young enn
had a few hundred dollars to bet. He
couldn't afford to lose this money, end
would Mr. Quay kindly loll him if bo

"Young man," said Qiay, "put your
money back in jcur pocket. "It is pos
sible that licavcr will pull through, but
I don't btlieve It."

THE TARIFF COMMISSION.
The atenographlo report of the state
ments mado before the Tariff Coramisiduii
is about completed, nud it is cxptcted
that within n few days it will bo in typo
end ready for distribution by Hie Gov
ernment printing office. Altogether the
Commission travelled about 7,000 miles,
held public- sessions for about 70 days,
and heard the statemcuts of between COO
nnd COO persons. Tho priuttd record
will fill about 2,000 pages. It is Ihe opin
ion of pcrtous who havo had good op
portunities for judging of tho sentiment
of the Commission that no radical or im
portant changes in the existing tariff will
be recommended. Their report will re
commend, perhaps, tomo slight Incroaso
of duties here.somo slight decrease there,
with some insignificant ndditious to tho
free list, ond wherever it is possiblo an
abandonment of compound duties (that
Is, of ad valorem rated combined with
specific rates) will be recommended. It
Is also probablo that important changes
In Custo.n House regulations as to clear
ances, cousular invoices, end sucb mat
ters will bo suggested. Notwithstanding
the persistency with which tho potters of
Trenton, N. J ,and East Liverpool, Uhio,
raittce, thcrj was a r'cficit nt the end of
tho campaign of $30,000. For thii Quay
was perboually responsible. When he
took bold of the committee a ftort time
ago be had two objects in view. Ho
hopod to be able to capture the coal re
gion vote, cs bo had dons 1S78, urat
leaBt to divert it from I'aUsSiou. In Mh
he has been sadly di3appoiuted, for all
the Stalwart soheinos have been so thor
oughly exposod that but little bsadway
ban been made. Again, he hoped to got
back (hat $30,000 for which he is respon
sible. When ho began to look into the
committee's finances, however, he foncd
the treasury nearly depleted. Cooper had
nsod it up iu sending missionaries
through the State, in purchasing 100,000
copies of an alleged libol of Beaver by
an alleged journalist, in printing all
sort of documents, and iu getting
thousands of copies of tho Now York
Tadi.ut struck off containing a speech
credited to Pattisou reflecting on the
Irish. Tho papers were not circulated
because (bo echems was exposed, but
they cout money just the same. Qu'iy
got so disgusted tho first part of last
week (bat bo ran eff to Harrisburg and
remained thtro for s-jvcral days.
There seems to be but one thing left
for tho Cameron men to do, and that is
to falsify returnv. This lias been duly
considered during the week, and nn at
tempt ti now being made to got $200,000
out of (ho business men on a tariff scare.
Tfce plan is to use tho money to buy up
the election Boards of the coal counties
Schuylkill, Luzsrno and Lackawanna.
Tbu Echemo is not practicable, and it
will doubtless be found impossible to
raise tho money, Tncrj seems to be on
ly tbreo hopeful Stalwarts left iu the
Stato Beaver, Cameron and Cooper,
The fulurd of these three uieu depends
upon this election, nnd they don't dare
be anything but hopeful.
Eiilhusiiistio Democrats who bang
about tho committee headquarters, iu
Philadelphia, are putting I'attibon's
plurality as high as 00,000 or 60.000.

The last session of Congress left a well-

Tho city is full of bridal couples.
There hasn't been for several years such
a Hood of uewly-wedded bliss poured in

There i3 nothing mean about a young

happy and they want everybody else to
bo happy. Thoy innst havo the best
rooms in Ihe hotels, and as a clerk in an
np-town hotel told as this morning,
"There is not ft vacant private pallor in

hotels. These young people have their
ratals served in their own rooms, aid
give bo little tronbla that lnttl men wel
come their arrival with joy and their de
p&rture with sighs. The bridal couple
scatter happiness around them wherover
(bsy go, and as there are about forty
couples sow lu this city, the amount of
happiness that is now being diffused in
the community can readily be calculated.

The observant tourist throngh Color
ado will naturally take some account of
the growing industries of the Slate aside
from tboso connected with geld and sil

raising, already referred to in these let
ters. Without leaving the main rontes of
travel he will aee collieries, flr-brick
works, grist-mills, oxw-milk paper-mills
and c-tVcr enterprises, and k will Also

pects of the Slate. Knowing what price
are paid iu the mining camps for food
for those thousands of busy, hungry men
and thoir eqnally hungry btaaln, one
would very likely thisk tbe Colorado

following story of an "old timer" hor
aptly illustrates the fallacy of that theory:
"l wos mining up Central City wAy onoe,
and there co-no along au old chap with
onions to Roll. You bet wo was glad to
get vegetablos about then. They wore a
email and mean onions r.r, ever yon saw,
but I was bound to have a dozen, and he
charged me a dollar and a half. Well,
sir, I didn't toy nothing, but I just al
lowed that farmlrg must be an everbiat
ing (Igbt better businrss than mining,
and I d better go into it myself. So
quit my claim and ctruck a likely kind
of a ranch, nud hired a dutehman at SI 00
a month to tako charge, and I skipped
out East for feed. It took A long tiu.t
then to go and como. and when I como

low ploughing in my field. Then when
I come to the houto I saw some ona bad
jumped that a widow woman from
Georgia had moved in. 1 sung out to
her to make herself at bom, but that I
bad an idea that was ay bouse. Well, I
got things otritighteced out and my vege
tables began to come up. Oae 'day Jim
Ewull, a s irt of marktt-rnas, coma along
and stopped ts dinner and Lad a cigar
on the piazza, And I knew he was count

Says he, 'Joe I mntt have thera cabbages,'
and ho offered me $1,800 for the lot, and
I took him op and he pulled out a beg of

and to sind for those cabbages any tituo,
Aud wben he'd gone I sat hinoking and

too much "written up." That has beta
somewhat tbc case with Colorado. In
somo instances people have undoubtedly
for ouo reason or another, said that about
tbe country and its characteristics which
they know to be untrue or exaggerated;
In others somo of tboso who are gifted

vlow," seems to be the most remarkable.
The reason why it has Attained to tl.e
dignity.of print;jin this itovlew, which
professes tojbe ono of tho foremost oritl
cal periodicals in ihejeonntry, is inscrut
able, unless tho editor iudielged iu a ma
licious desire lo give; bis Reverend con
tributor "plonty of rope to hang him
self." The annonrcement of tbe pub
lishers that Mr. Rider bad the privilege
of prefixing "Bev." to bis namo wa
hardly neceerary, for the bittornma of
his iimctiyo agaicst a profession which
probably did bim no harm save that it
was not painstaking eaongh to discover
tbo blushing of the unseen flower of his
genius, fully indicates that. Btrnuge ce
itmAysecra, no set of men can indulge
in harsher ihongbt, feeling atd lunguofje
than those wkcao profession it U to in-
ulcate tbe sablime teachings of the gez-
tle Saviour. Mr. Rider in bis article en
Tko Freter.f-ioE of Jonrnalisro," shows
ignorance of tho workings and the
methods of modern practical journalism,
bich almost deserve to bs put on a loved
with a Freneh novelist's lackofknowl
edge of English social customs, or Ameri
can geography. In bis hoars of rccr
gainst isn unkind fate which hu pre
vented him from eclipsing tbe Beerc'aeri
and tho Talmages of th day, he sseui
to bavo evolved t.omc grim monitor wbisb
he b'.sjdubbed journalism, and wbicb he
ttacka with alljthe energy which that
distinguished historical personage-, Don
Quixote wasted on tbe equally historio
windmill. But ns Svnoea once sail,
thtro is no literary work so utterly bad
that (hire is no.t at leust somo gorfi in
it." Thus, j the Eev. Mr. Rider in hi
indiscriminate acsnrdt.seraebow ntuxablts
against an abeso iu magazine literature.
which is deserving of severe language.
Bat, as this does not come until near tbe
end of the artiole, tbe severity of tbe pace
has told on thu author, and the language
is quite mild. Tbo ubu-to referred to is
the mania of publishers to sacrafice the
literary value cf an article to its adapt
ability for illustration. Within the lack
two or three veard a meriticicusrissa bas
manifested itself in all domains of art,
wbicb cannot fail to recoil In the end on
it3 authors. In nintiu it has givtn viae
to Waguerism, in painting to Makartism,
on the stago to (he.apcet&colar drama,
with its luck of plot, literary construction
and finish, And (bo total disregard for
tbe fitstdiainatlo principles; In architec
ture to bizarro combinations of nil sorb
of styles; and in light liter itura to an in
sane doiiro to publish anything that can
be illustrated in a lulling manner. Wo
take up any of (ha leading magazines.
and bow little can be found to batUfy the
tastes of a cultured mind. One would
think that publishers bad conceived the
idea that tho world bad gone back to iU
second childhood and treated it ns such,
Wo havo bad periodical rovivals in re
ligion, what is needed now, is a revival
of literary feeling among publishers, not
alone iu this country, but in England as
well, The emphatic failure of tho cul
ruination of the spectacular-melodramatic
aberatiou on tbo btago at Wallack's aud
Daley'u theatres, ought to teach publish
era u lesson, vthich if not heeded, will be
iaQiclcd with even more torerity in the
literary world.
Jereey waists continue lo bold snay
with unabated vigor, aud tbe ingenuity
of manufacturers and dreEsaakeri sms
to bend oniefly on produoing new varie
ties, or making new combinations with
other materials. WAists of black or dark
blue Jersey webbing with collars and
cuffs of scarlet or pale blue cashmere,
are in favor with young ladies and girls
in their teens. A good utility ccstumo
can be made of a plain, well-finished
black cashmere skirt and a Jersty waist
of any color, from a fclmple black, to a
glaring Arubl r. d. English id) Us also
maintain themselves in short jackets,
trimmed with Brandebnrgs. Tbe French
importations evtn out-Euglub the Eng.
lu-h in their masculinity, since with them
plain linen collar and cuffs nre worn, to
gether with a hunter's scarf of figured
linen, fastened by a gold soarf pin.
Theio is no change in tbe shapes of
breakfast sacqucs. Tbe styles continue
simple, fit tbe figure slightly, and geuer
ally co-ne in whilo or dillcate lints of
blue or pink. The most elegant matinee
sacquea ere mado of cashmere or satin
surah, wilb a full garniture of lace and
ribbons or embroidery.
Considerable taste is shown in tbe de
sign and make up of collars. At one es
tablishment, I was shown a dull red vel
vtt collar, covered with another of old
Florence point laoe, which was to be tied
with a velvet ribbon in pale strawberry
red. Another was mado of dull green
velvet covered with fino Mocblln lace,
and provided wilb a neck ribbon of rose
colored Ottoman. The effect of both
was very beautiful
