In spite of all the talk that is being Indulged In by some of the Democrats of the house about n conservative and moderate tariff bill, tho measure, which is now almost completed is radical, some of the cuts In duties being extremely heavy, l he average perccntago of reduction which will be shown by the bill will not be Indicative of the cut made, for the reason that a great many things on which there are more or less heavy dutieu now will be put on the free list, and will Hot figure in the estimate of averages. It will be some time yet before the foil bill Is given out, but ponie of the feature of it have become known from time to time. There are a number of other Items on the free list besides Wool, coal, Iron ore, lis tin, lumber, salt and silver lead ore. orae of the heaviest cuts made where items are not on tho free list are In tho glass and iron schedules, and the textiles not In the cotton schedule. The shoe anq leather and eotton schedules are cut very little. In flax and woolen textiles, wearing ap parel and blankets, and carpets and the like, the cut fs very heavy. The duties on glass throughout the schedule are cut auout in tue mmaie, oieei raus are re duced to 25 per cent, ad valorem. There will probably be nothing In the iron schedule running above SO per cent., an4 the averaze will probably fall below 25. The ad valorem system fs adopted almost entirely in the mil The question oi sugar has not yet heen settled, and there Is a strong disposition In response to the needs of the treasury to put a small duty on that article.

Some writ ers have supposed that the spinal cord was endowed with a dim sort of cou sclousuess, too, and thev have SDoknu of the "soul of the spinal cord." This is more than doubtful, but it is certain that the cord oauuot be ignored iu studying educational problems. The spiuni cord is made up or sensory aud motor cell in tho center aud of con ducting libers In tho outer portions, .uuny impressions maue on tue senses go no farther than the cells iu the spiualcord.

Such acts are relegatetl by the brain to tho spiuni ooru. in mis way me urain is relieved of much work.

At first we spell with nalnful consciousness, later we spell the fa miliar worn, or our vocabulary with nine or no oousciousness. children ought to be trained to write and soell with the spinal oord and tn nan all their brain power thinking the thought t'J be expressed. We do many things wit 11 tne spinal cord to relieve the brnln. We walk with the spinal cord, we write aud pell with the oord, e kuitaud gossip with the spinal oord; we may slug and pray, not with our heaits. nor with our brains, but with the upper part, of our spinal oord.
