THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. . WtNK, Cairo 4 Pnomitroil. WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 20. I8KJ. Tammany Hall is catching it io Naw York with a eogenc. At an aoli-Tammany meeting held in Coup Union last week the Hall wa crowd ed to ita utmost. A grand nephew of Ex-Freident Van Buren presided. The Tiger hat had hit day. Chairman Packir of the last Re publican State Con veo lion issues a call for a meeting of the delegates composing that convention, at the opera house, Harrisburg, on the 3d of January for the purpose of plac ing in nomination a candidate fur Congressman-at-Large, in lace nf the late General Lilly. There is al ready quite contest for the vacant teat, hut the contestants are princi pally confined tn the eastern end of the State, the place beiog conceded to that section. The original constitution of Ha waii has been found and is an ex ceedingly biblical document. It was igned Oct. 8, 1840 and shows tbe in fluence of Christian missionaries on that Islaod. It starts off with this sentence: God hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on the earth in unity and blessedness. It provides for a house of Represen tatives without whose consent no measure can be passed. A final court of appeal is also named consist ingof six persons with the King aud Premier ex-officio members. It also specifies how changes in the constitu tion can be made. The Brazilian Republic is iu a desperate strait. Disaffection seems to be growiog and desertions to the insurgents are becoming more fre quent. It is to be deplored that this backward step in civilized govern ment should be made on this conti nent where liberty had its birth. There is one thing certain the life of a republic depends upon the intelli gence of its citizens. What Brazil and other South American countries need is education, not only in the sciences and arts, but to thiuk and act for themselves. Monarnbisro tends to destroy this while Republi canisni fosters the spirit of liberty though it is itself begotten of it. The Cleveland Leader says; "A very grave mistake is made by per sons out of work and in want who go from small towns to tbe large ci ties in hope of bettering their condi tion. As a rule the villiages have less excessive and unusual poverty to relieve than the great centres of pop. ulation, in proportion to their re sources. Able-bodied single men, especially, should make their way toward the country rather thao the cities. Mauy farmers who cannot afford to hire any body for wages could give one or two men apiece a chance to earo their board and lodg ing by work in clearing up fields late ly timbered or in making improve ments io farm buildings and fences." Rev. Dr. Parkhubst gives notice that he proposes to go much farther tbao bis past operations io New York indicate, and io order to carry out his design tbe Republican Legisla ture will be invited to a share in the enterprise. Parkhurst wants an in vestigation of the police department Much greater things have happened, even in New York, but police depart ment is a pet institution of Tammany, and this is a variety of proceeding that cveoXhairmao Fassett's commit tee did not dare to tackle some years ago when there was better reason for success. The Parkhurst movement may gain a hearing before the Legis lature, but that is about all it will gain. Tammany always has a care for Tammany. Ex. Many people are not clear as to some of the distinctions made in the Wilson Bill. We give below e con cise definition from one of our ex changes: An ad valorem duty is a term used to denote a charge laid upon goods at a certain rate perceut. upon their value. It is in opposition or contradistinction to a specific duty, or sum laid upou a given quantity or number of goods. Foi instance, say a tailor should import 10,000 yards of Scotch tweed of the value of $20 000. Suppose the duly thereon should be an ad valorem one of 25 per cent. This would be calculated on the value of the importation, ami tbe revenue would be 85,000. Sup pose the duty should be a specific one of 25 cents a yard. It would be based on tbe Lumber of yards io the importation, regardless of value, and the revenue would be 82,500. The a i valorem method is in fact a sliding acala of dulim, aud the revenue goes up or down acsording n the values of importations inert-use or irvre. Tbe aim of the ad valorem njcthoJb is to justly apportion the duties to the valun of goods imported, A specific duty is an arbitrary one, and always remains the same, regard leu of fluctuations in the value of impor tations. Admiral DeGama of the Brazil ian navy has deserted the Brazilian government and joined bis fortunes with tbe Rebel Navy Commander Mello. This is a most serious blow to the Repnblican government Many think tbe days of tbe Repub lic are numbered. The enabling act for the admission of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah into tbe Union of States has passed the House. Serious objections were made to New Mexico because of the large number of ignorant inhabitants poor, bigoted, Mexicans who are not capable of self government. The objections to Utah are formidable A great number of its inhabitants are polyagamists by belief and many by practice. Tbe Mormons who number about 118,000, more than half of the population iif Utah have always been known as treacherous to the govern ment. They resisted the Edmunds bill brohibiting palygamy, to the very point of rebellion and only submit ted when it was either submission or destruction. Should Utah be admit ted as a state might not another fea ture of states rights come up in the question of palygamy, or as tbey term it, a question of religious belief. The calamity bowlers are abroad iu the land. Their voices mar be heard from Maine to California. Every state, city, town and village join in tbe wail. . Disaster, ruin, starvation and dcalb are in every section. What is tbe cause of all this lamentation ? A little more than a year ago we bad prosperity. The wheels of industry were in full mo tion. All labor was employed. The man who toiled with bis hands was receiving on an average the highest wages per day that was ever paid in the history of tbe world. Hundreds of thousands are to day without em ployment and those who bave employ ment are satisfied if they can get within forty percent, of what they got one year ago. This great change is largely chargeable to the Demo cratic party, for they have began to run the machines of the governmeut. A policy has beeu proclaimed that our manufactures and laborers must not be protected. We must buy the poduct of the cheap labor of Europe. Our mills must stand and rust, and rot away. Our laborers must remain idle aud starve. What is the use of talking of starting up industries in our towns aud village, to build up and make ao enterprising and thriv ing place where men can be employ ed and money distribsted where these are to be flooded with materials made in Europe at oue half or one third the cost? The times are out of joint and they will remain so till this Rump Parliuroent of Southern Brig diers remain io control of our Coun try's interest Ever since Mr. Cleveland trans mitted his annual message tn Coo gress tbe whole country has been auxiously awaiting another ooe on Hawaii which he said would shortly appear. Now tbey have it, and G ro ver lets himself out on it in great style. He reviews at some length the history of tbe revolution in which be gives it as his opinion that the revolution was not brought about by right means. Of the leaders styling themselves tbe Committee of Safety, be says seven were foreign subjects, five Americans, one German, and one Englishman ; hence not tbe pro per persons to be leaders in a revolt, He also accuses Ex-Minister Stevens of beiug exceedingly anxious for the annexation of Hawaii and being in loo much baste to recognize tbe newly formed government, the lauding of the Marioes be says was uncalled for to protect Americans as there was no riot, but was rather to encourage the Revolutionists. Assuming all these things to be true, upon inform ation obtained through Commissioner Blouut, be thiuks a wrong has beeu done and gave Minister Willis au thority to communicate to the queeu bis desire to aid in tbe restoration of tbe status exist ion before tbe lawless lauding of tbe Uuited States troops, if such could be affected upon terms providing for clemency as well as justice to all concerned. This tbe queen has not acceded to. The Pres ident confesses his plans have failed aud now places the matter io tbe hands of Congress with the express ion nf his own desire to cooperate ith them iu any just and right set tlement of the difficulty. Tbe end is not yet. Many think tbe President has got bimself into an embarrassing position from which it will be diffi cult to extricate himself.
