Ten Cents a Pound. -xj&f It is Riven out that the committee en t Mticulture of the Heuse of Iteprcsenta- fvftf. tlvai will irlve a hearing en the bill of the American Apripiiltiiral and Ilairv assecla- 5$?'" tlen, Introduced by Mr. Scott, of Pennsyl- K'-jJS j vaala, placing the manufacture ana saie 01 lmimuea uutier uuuei iuc iumiiuivl me department of internal revenue, and taxing it ten cents per pound, "Wednesday, the 31st of March, at 10 a. m. " All friends of the dairy industry nnd these engaged in the manufacture or sale of natural butter throughout the country are requested te attend this hearing and aid the movement, which is supported by the dairymen of the whole country." We can hardly believe that Mr. Scott Introduced this bill seriously, nor with a view te press it te passage. SVe are quite confident that it he has done se, net a score of members of Congress can be found te support it no, en reflection, we are net se confident of that. A few score of congress men will net be repelled by the absurdity, the unconstitutionality and the injustice of any preposition. Even a majority of the Heuse may be induced te vote a ten-cent tax en artificial butter. This prospect does net change the char acter of the proposed legislation, which is vicious and absurd in every particular and should net be allowed te waste a moment of the public time. It is intended" te virtually prohibit the manufacture of bulterine, oleomargarine or any ether substitute for butter by tax ing it out of existence. The placing of it under internal revenue regulation is simply a dodge te cover prohibitory legislation. "We have often said that the sale of bogus butter for real butter, or the compounding of any feed article from noxious' in gredients, is a proper cencent for the police power of the state ; but te suppress an artificial composition for feed because It supplanU a natural article, is se monstrous and iniquitous a preposition that we sin cerely trust no Pennsylvania congressman will even lend his name te it. The office of state treasurer of Pennsyl-1 Vanla seems te be a particularly perilous I one, The treasurers seem te be steadily matte tbe victims of their cashiers' opera tions. The cashier seems te be the real treasurer, the official head being a figure head. The treasurer seems te tw a re respectable man, nominated by poli ticians, who afterwards put into the real executive power a tool sufficient ly supple te accommodate their individual and parly occasions for the money of the state, and who is permitted in return te help himself at his pleasure. Brighter and Better. There is mere encouragement in the vote enHhe Blair educational bill in the Heuse than in the treatment it had in the Senate. The vote te refer te the committee en labor instead of the committee en educatlen,was practically a vote en the bill, inasmuch as the education committee has been known te be against it nnd the ether committee Is suspected of being for it. It is encouraging te see that of the votes yesterday cast practically against the bill, there were 82 Democrats, and only r3 for it. It is a pity there were any In its favor. Nearly every prominent man in the Heuse en both sides voted against the new refer ence, except perhaps Messrs. heng, Ding ley, Hitt, McKinley and Willis ; the oppo sition te the bill including Messrs. Bland, Blount, Bragg, Butterworth, Canner, Hewitt, Hiscock, Ilelman, Kelley, Morri son, Phelps, Kandall, Heed, Scott, Tucker and Welbem. X Hitch Semen here. A hitch has ceme in the settlement of the Western labor troubles. Mr. Powderly ordered the men te go te work, upon the consent of Gould te arbitration. Gould new says that he did net agree te arbitrate, but only agreed that Mr. Hexie, the manager of the Missouri Pacific, mightjubitrate if lie saw fit. Hoxle says there is nothing te arbitrate. Powderly assumed that Hexio would de what Gould was w illing te de. Perhaps lie is ; and perhaps lie knows better than Powderly what Gould wants done. Other wise we must conclude that Hexie Is a bigger man than Gould in the Missouri Pacific direction. MR. KEEN AITS NEW NOVEL. Blaine and Edmunds. One of the most interesting phases of current political discussion Is the manifest hostility of Blaine and his friends te Ed munds. Especially is this disclosed since tie Vermont senator recently leaped te the leadership of lib party in the Senate and was apparently established in It by the vote upon his resolution. That was net very decisive nor significant, it must be ad ml t ted, inasmuch as it had te be hurried te Stmkeksj should remember that trade can only become brisk wlien strikes are at an end. Ham Jese-s will spend eight vveeks In Bosten next fall. He will boa ilery bull in the lestholie china shop of tlie Hub. Thk newly elected senator from Califor nia, Geerge Hearst, U reported mysteriously missing. It would be well If certain ethers of these grave and reverend seignior could be taken Intea vast wilderness and lest. Thk Aliw-A 1101 r by Henry F. Kt-enau, mi t der of "irnjan," ntc, li me. I'p.US. U Appleton A Ce .Sew Yerk. Mr. K penan Is the avewed author of "Trajan," and the mispoetotl author of "The Moneyniakers," both of which made some stir In the llterarv world ; and belonged te that rortuiiate class of books which eveke pralse and censure, mild and furious, undeserMHl and Indiscriminate. There Is llttle in the new book te recall either of Its forerunners j nothing te suggest that the author has exhausted his powersuorpuiioriiiino eesi ei mum , this is a geed deal te say for a new author. The judicious friends of Mr. Keenan will grleve ever this, nn ever all his work, that he docs net de his best. It is plain enough that his heart is net In "The Aliens" as It was In "Tralau," and as a literary performance the new book will net be leu rank wltli the tlrst of his creation. Its merits are net as conspicuous j IU faults are net as glaring. The svene of the story Is amid diflereut as-uilatiniKi- Us characters are for the miwl part dlllerent ersenaRes and from ether walks et life. It seems te us Mr. Keenati has handled them quite as well. "The Aliens," wie gave line te me doek, are an Irish Immigrant boy anil girl, who rome ever with their parents and ether kin tlfty years gge,iandlug at New Yerk nud con veyed te an Inland town of that state by the Krle canal, then the great highway of trallie and travel. The fatlier soeu succumbs te the easv indulgence of a weak disposition and te "the geuoreus hospitality of fellow, countrymen risen te position in the new land. The mether, with "a Madenna face" that the reader Is net allowed te forget nnd which early admirers recognized when they saw in later llfeber daughter's features dies stricken with grief and madness. The children, after a sort of stepmether care from a churlish brother's family, are widely scattered by varying fortune. It is with two of them only, in the main, that the book has te deal. Together they fall Inte kindly hands at tlrst, though they have from rural nnd vlllage associates the lcissltudes and race persecution which it is the author's fmrpoe te represent as the character stic treatment or the alien stranger at that period. That he does this with picturesque and graphic force can hardly be disputed, although it may be questioned whether it Is n faithful presenta tien of the spirit or tne times. Tiie amuers habit of thinly veiling the places nnd seme of the persons et his story under such open disguise as " Warchester " for Bechcster, " UucepUAie " ier iiuuaie, warcy ier Marcy, gives te his work sttcli nn air of real ism that he may expect te be held te accuracy of detail by these familiar with thescenoef his story and suspicious et the originals of its characters. Very early in the moement of the tale begin these descriptive passages which adorn the work ; and especially In dealing wltli rural scenes is Jlr. Kcenan's style captivating nnd eloquent. The days when the advent of a canal packet, moved at a lively jog by six ileet horses, was hailed at the wharf by a great couceutso of spectators with cheers and Hags and much popular commotion, in a leading city these days are net easily recalled by the present generation, and yet they are net mere than titty years back. In Western New Yerk there ere, tee, at that time, in social life and politics, undoubtedly the families et whom tbeSvarcbestersaro'types; rural homes like that of the geed Dr. ilarbury and his wlfe ; rough, Impulsive, henpecked and vehement otlsueoLs of better parentage, such as Byren, with a lllnty sort of uncongenial spouse. Theirs was the housoheld in which Nerah dent's sister, who probably had seen nothing equal te It among the women with whom she lias been brought in contact sllice her broth er's elevation. The truth is that our notions as te modesty or immodesty in woman's dress are largely, If net chiefly, conventional, se that, up te n certain point, what is customary seems modest The Turk's estlnintlen et woman Is low and cress, and yet he will net ondure tnusigtiiei ins wives in piiDiic witu ineir faces xiescd ; and in ether countries hore women are degraded they nre kept bundled up from view, except In the presence of their lords or of each ether. But t'hrlsllau civili civili sateon everywhere demands that feminine Iwauty shall be seen, and wherever that clviltfatlen has reached its highest develop ment the prautice against which Miss Cleve land Inveighs se violently, has continued te prevail, though ethor fashions et women's dress have undergone n multitude of changes. In every country where women are most highly honored nud most tenderly chorlshed, and w here respect for wemau is most completeaud sincere, It mav be said generally that the line drawn by Miss I'love I'leve iand is always ignored in the full dress of the best women. This style of dress has twit worn by the most ndmlrable of women In all generations. It was worn by our grandmothers the ball dress, at the bngluuiug of this century, ier instance, having been described as "nothing" but a chemlse of pink silk;" and yet Miss Cievelaud would hardlv doneuueo the women of that period as immodest, or deny that lu spite of their low-cut gowns woman ly purity continued untarnished among them. The evening costume of the present time, sofa? from being mere generous In its display of femluine charms than that of past periods is raiuer mere reserved in mat re spect evon in its freest manifestations, al though theso who have but lately become fa miliar with the social customs of great cap itals may think dlilorently. Perhaps dresses may new be worn a trille lewer lu the United States than was the case ten or fifteen years age ; but lu Paris and Louden the line drawn by Miss Cleveland has never been respected during that time. Ner is there intrinsically anv mero im modesty In showing the beautiful cure of the besom than there Is in exposing the neck and chest the arms aud shoulders. The ex hibition, tee, is quite as unassailable en wstlietic grounds as It Is en grounds of taste and morality. We olwervo also that bs a general tiling the denunciation of the fashion is apt te be mero ardent te the young te w hem niggard nature has denied the beauty they Insist should be concealed, or in the old nnd sickly In whom it has passed Its bloom, se that they no longer dare te confront the air for fear of ague and catarrh. However, there need be nndUpute en the question. The beautiful will con tin no te do de light society with their beautv, and the ethers wilt only folllew the law of wisdom in avoiding the attempt te de what Is Impossi ble Meanwhile ler all these, beautiful or net, who share Miss Lie eland's opinion, only one course is open, and that is te obey their conscience whether the world agrees with them or net U 1 MY MXVIOAL.

But the Maine people mean te down Edmunds every cbance they get ; and two years in advance of the next national con vention they have started in te de it, with Elaine's special mouth-piece, the Xcw Yerk Tribune, in full lead of the pack. Under pretense of shielding the national committee from aspersions of Edmunds' friends, the ZYibtme shows that the icy statesman from the Green mountains per sistently refused under one plea or another te accept all invitations te speak lu tiiat campaign. This is ancient history, te be sure, and is undoubtedly revived at this time te break the force of any position Ed munds may have attained in his recent contest in the Senate. Meantime a coolness between Legan's and Blaine's friends is developing; Sherman, from the chair of the president of the Senate, waits and watches his opportunity, and already it is manifest that senatorial jealousies are te play n very large part in the canvass for the next Republican nomi nation, with all the chances again favoring a dark horse. 5 Eft"1 F.SS -v- feife & M 7 !?- V rT The A'titt'Dnkcs Tragedy. Captain Nutt, cashier of State Treasurer Bailey, was shot by Dukes in Unlontewn, where both lived, en December 24, 1S82. Dukes was tried and his defense was that he fired his pistol in self-defense, as Xutt rushed into his(Dukes')ioem and advanced upon him in a threatening manner nnd as though he intended te sheet him. At the time popular feeling was very high against Dukes because he was charged with hav ing betrayed Nutt's daughter under premise of marriage; a charge which was, however, net proved. The verdict of the jury, acquitting Dukes en the gieund of self-defense, was generally disapproved, and the jury was savagely assailed. Our own opinion was expressed te the effect that the verdict was justified by the evi dence produced. Dukes had always bem a geed reputation, and there was geed rea. son te believe that he acted as he believed In self-defense, and the fact that he was amued In his own room was strong evi diBce in Ids favor. It new turns out that at the time Nutt ' . .1.l I..V..I1..I...1....I 1 ti --! tlU UO nU UGdHMjr mUlCU m spcu- 'laUeBS in oil, using the state funds in his ' ,'fwtedy; and letters written by him are r --Xllilied showing that he was in a high C excitement ever the unfavorable f his speculations. This state of ta eae which would naturallv have , 'Wktatate violent action againtt Dukes, K'Md tseptteM the story of the latteras te the (vactwrec the awault made upenhlm. Nkvv Jku.ikv, popularly (.apposed te be the home or railroads, fails net te keep her oyes open te the desires of the people Her Heuse, by a vote of 47 te 10, has passed the bill invalidating the Pennsylvania railroad company's project for insuring its empleyes. Thk l'hilndelphla AV km opens up Its two cent campaign with a cartoon Iatnoeii of the gas trust managers. Frem which It may he Inferred that there has been a falling out be tween McMancs, Leeds A: Ce. nnd Klkin", YVidencr it Ce. Well, well, the poeplo's turn may come that waj, Jlu.snv Uauet J.eikik, though something et an Independent in politics, Is net without sagacity, and he Is net Indisposed te be prac ticable. In arecent;addres3 te the Harvard students en "The (ientleman in Politics," he Iointed out that it was net wise, when there Is no moral question involved, by Insistingen the unattainable te leso everything. "The political history of the Knglish rare is a his tory of com premisos. The greatest achieve ments in Institutions and government of modern times is the constitution of the United States, anil It was a tlssne of com promises. Compromises, when they are net compromises with eternal wrong, as in the casoef slavery, have been thosteppiug stones in the great advance of our civilization. Get the best you can, make the best of it you can, and push ou at once for something better." Onn U the wind that hasne geed concealed about It. The suspension of work in the glass factories of lkilgltitn, caused by the great strlke there, has greatly restricted the production of imported glass and will croate a boom in the American tnide. 1'kw instances of pnibez7lement that have recently ceme te light, betray mero unscru unscru unscru pulousness thau that of J. It. Mannix, the defaulting ex-assignee of Archbishop Jehn li. Purcell, or Cincinnati. It will be recalled that the deceased archbishop, a kindly, scholarly man with no business aptitude, ro re ro celveil deposits from parishioners and ethers that asgregated an enormous sum of money. Hh brother, Itev. lMvvard I'urcell, believed lobeofwoimorfiilabllltyasa llnaucler, was entrusted with the care of these funds. In course of tlme he get thorn into lnoxtricahle confusion. Interest was paid en deposits by means of fresh deposits, and a Jungle, was created well nigh Impossible te jienetrate. One day the bubble burst, and it was found that several millions of dejieslLs were unac counted for. Seme who had received their money claimed that they had net, and there was nothing te disprove their claim. Ueth the I'urculls wtnt te their graves broken brekon breken hearted men. Their worst enemies never charged thorn with intentional wrong-doing, uui weir iiiaiioasance ceuiu ik regarded as nothing olse than constructive crime. They meekly bowed their heads te the storm and sank beneath it. At this time J. II. Man nlr, the assignee, enters en the scene. If there ever was a time when probity was the brightest of virtues, surely this was one of them. The dormant honesty of a bank breaker would have been stirred te life under the distressing circumstances of the as as as Hlguoe'H position. Hut Mannix was net that variety of bird, i'er ever six years he nover accounted, and tlien he llxeu his account te avoid citation. He spent the entire trust es tate, except a small reuinant, all being frit tered away in speculation. It was a plain case of robbing the already robbed ; aud it U difficult te understand the nature or a human being who could be guilty of this manner of lulaiuy. anil Denny, the orphaned aliens, grew up, and there Is a geed deal that is natural in their development, with possibly no mero of the romantic and melodramatic than has ac tually happened te many a boy and girl if the incidents of their actlve lite were te be crowded into a few hundred pages et written narrative. We have no pnrpose te supplant the read er's interest In the book, nor toanticipate the development of its plot lr its author lays claim te plot, in the Htery of two plain lives, with only the uaual amount et persecution and passion, vicissitude and triumph. There are charming lilts et humorous by-play In the character of 1 jwly Melly, and cne of the best strokes of nrt is the Introduction of Agnes, the sister of the horeino Nerah, alter sue had Krevwi te womanhood among n statelier society than her sister knew; the contrast et character and or fate is very well managed, and throughout the mingled weak ness and strength et Darcy Warchester are admirably presented. The critic Intent upon finding- Haws will dwell upon the schoef-dayeplsodes or Denny's career, the snake pond and mill wheel and Heed, and uien the last tragedy In peer Xerah'.s life, as a style or writing andef inci dent that has no part in the modern novel and is relegated te the Hash story papers that are dropped into the basemant; the same critic w III detect certain anachronisms of customs; he will discover the personages In the "Aliens" striking matches en the outer walls long before the invention of friction tnatchie, and he will net fall te remind us that it was Gov. De Witt Clinteu and net leorge Clinten whom the rival ten ns en the Krie canal joined in blessing for its projection and construction. Hut what the reader will have te find out forhimselrer herseir is that here Is a genuine American story, with a local, even a provincial flavor, through which runs the lragrance or wild tlowers In a new country, aud In which is told the heroic struggle of a trans planted race. The contrast or the Ger man and Irish immigration, the strength and weakness or each ; the early watering place et Interior Jvew ierk; the sweet simplicity and unswerving fidelity or Dllly Dane ; the struggle or Darcy, net altogether contemptible, and alter all very human ; the discourse et Denny with the field aud wood land spirits that lie had brought from the land et his birth ; and the pitiful end or Nerah's dream when, Ophella-like, she chanted the sad fancies of a crazed brain te the flowers and grasses out et which shewove shroud and crown all these fancies of the author will make you read as a pleasure the book ttiat you may take up as a uutv. It is a story of bentiment, of pathos and et' power. It needs pruning; It will stand re-writing ; but, as it Is, it is a hedgerow, wild aud un kempt, w 1th sweet blossoms,sharp thorns aud tangfed twigs. Though a vista there is a glimpse or the Mexican war period, which Is skilllully in troduced ir we dare speak et skill in this book and a generation that has just buried McClellan, with the grier or true allectlen and the tears of henest sorrow, will be grato grate ful te the author ler the kindly uetice he makes et the already "great engineer" "a young man with sandy hair and brown eyes."

Miss Cleveland, because of what alie modestly calls the briet prominence et her position, has felt It te be her duty te express her disapproval of nuy evening dress for women "which shows the bust." Hhe has no objection te tlie dlsjilay or tlie neck and arms, and leaves her own bare en all full dres occasions ; but alie lays down the rnle that "between the neck anil bust there is a line always te be drawn," and which cannot be passed without producing an eirect " shocking, nauaeating, revelting, and do de do Rerving of the utmost denunciation en tlie Heore or morality, beauty, liealth, and overy ethor cor.sideratlou which goeil men aud women should conspire te proservo and einct," Yet throughout the elv lllzed world the full evening dres forwemoii falls below Miss Cleveland's line, and Is oxpreasly designed te show what bhe declares se emphatically cannot be reveal ed without outraging taste and decency the Hwell of the besom. The fashion, tee, Is net recent, but has prevailed In all ages, nud no lass in times when social morals vsere strict than In times when they wero lax. It Is trne that tlie portrait), by Kir Peter Lely or tlie lieautles of the court or Charles IL, show that the besom was then expesed te an extraordinary degree, as was also the easn in France under tbe Directery ; but portraits of the women or courts and times equally distinguished for dissoluteness represent the women closely covered from head te feet nnd from shoulder te wrist. Marguerite nf Lerraine, famous for her beauty and her bad murals, appears In a full-dress cestume which reveals only her faoe aud hands ; while La Helle Hamil ton, the chaste lieauty who escaped the breatli or scandal even In the scandalous reign of Charles 1 1,, shows her besom almost without any covering at all. Queeu Victeria, who Is everywhere hon ored as a bright example of womanly dignity and propriety, at the present time requires ladles te appear at her court In costumes wmcuiraiiKiy expose what MIsa Cleveland declares canuet be revealed except at the sac. rltlee of modesty; and the queen herself makes a tlUplay that would aUeck the prwi- Depend Upen It.
