With an Increase of over SSO.OOO.OOO In dutiable imports in this country during the laBt elijht months as compared with the corresponding period of the year be fore, Sir William Vernon Harcout, Chan cellor of the British Exchequer, was fully warranted in saying, as he did at the Lord Mayor's banquet last week, that the present "great increase In English trade with America was a most cheerful symp tom." The framers ot the tariff ot "perfidy" and "dishonor" will undoubt edly feel equally joyons. But the American people as a whole will tail to Bee where the "cheerful symp tom" comes in. Representative Barbour, of Connecticut, stated the matter in a nutshell at the Silk Association's banquet when hedeclared that "for every yard of cloth made in a foreign country and brought here and sold there is a yard less cloth to be made in this country ; and for every dollar which we pay for foreign labor we pay a dollar less to our own wage earners." However, let the British people rejoice while they may. A British Ministry will not always be in power at Washington. There will be an "appeal to the country" in this Republic next year, and then it will be the turn for the American people to laugh. The Washington correspondent ot the Chicago Times-Herald relates the follow ing as Illustrating the power .of news paper advertising: One man told me a day or two ago that his concern with nominal capital of $100,000, only $30,000 of which was paid in, has divided In a single year among three partners profits to the amount of $75,000, and that exclusive of salaries of $50,000 and $25,000 drawn by two members of the Arm. Ten or twelve years ago this man was a drug clerk on a small salary in a western town, aud is now one of the millionaires of New York. "With out advertising I might have made a living," he said, "but it was advertising that made me rich, and advertising is a very simple commodity at that." Another man said that his concern, which began by investing $10,000 a year in advertis ing, increased the amount every year according to the Increase of business, and this year expects to expend $1,000,000. Another who confined himself entirely to I the newspapers and magazines In the ex- . ,., . piouauon oi ins specially, never navmg touched a dead wall, u fence or the broad side ot a barn with poster or paint brush, and never employing a salesman, has a cool million salted down in real estate, keeps his yacht and spends most ot his time in traveling and luxurious living. A New York man is in a funny plight, and he can't help himself. He joined an insurance order and made his policy payable to his wife, she for years paying hit dues and assessments. The two quarreled and were divorced, int. Jhe woman kept right on paying the in ,.lft nd assessments. Meantime the man rL.1arr'e asnln, and wanted to trans for his m?Jlcy t0 ' second wife. The first wife sa-n'mo, the policy had been made out in her 'nanify tfe. had paid all tVtt mnnev on it. and she Intended to keep it. The Insurance order, further more, upheld the first wife, aud refuse to take any action In the matter, and there it rests, It is a mean man who will let his wife pay his Insurance and then try to beat her out ot It. No wonder the sparrows have taken nnBKalnn of the country. It has been estimated the average annual product o a pair to be twenty-four young,, hU males and halt females ; and nssumipg further that all live together with their offspring, their progeny at the end of ten MB.

Secretary of Stato Grcsham died at 1.15 o'clock this morning at his rooms at tho Arlington Hotel. All hope of his recovery was proc tlcolly abandoned whon his sinking spoil occurred, shortly before 6 o'clock last evening. Tho most powerful heart stimu lants known to medical science, nitro glycerine and digitalis, woro injected hypodermically. He recovered slightly, but after two severe rigors shortly before 11 o'clock ho began to fall rapidly and his Vltnllty began to ebb. Tho thrco phy sicians saw that tho end was near, and at 12 o'clock withdrew to tho anteroom, lonving in tho sick chambor only the mem bers of his family, Mrs. Gresham,- her daughter Mrs. Andrews, and son-in-law, Mr. Andrews, and tho nurses. Up to that time ho bad been conscious and talked at intervals, His words were full of bravery. Ho fully appreciated his TOE LATE WALTER Q.

But just before the physicians retired ho ceased speaking. though ho appeared to bo conscious. Mrs. Gresham sat at tho bedsido smooth Ing his foverod brow nnd occasionally reading to him from tho Bible passages which ho loved. As tho end approached his pulso became hardly perceptible. Grad ually his eyes glazed aud closed. But Mrs, Gresham, with noblo and heroic for titude, continued to read the words of tho gospel to her departing husband. Her daughter and son-in-law stood with bowed heads at tho sido of tho couch. At 1:15 o'clock his breathing ceased; r peaceful shadow passed over his pale couri tenauce.hls pulso dickered and tho sorrow ing family wero in tho presence of doath.

Although physically slight she displayed, so sum ouo who n.is uccu in tno sick chamber several times a day throughout the secretary s illness, remarkable endur unco and nervo. For four weeks she has hardly had her clothes off. Night and day she was at tho bedside, snatching an hour or two of sleep when sho could on a loungo In his room. Sho scorned deter mined to fight off doatJu "If ho dies." sho said many times, "llosotill." IBut she did not complain, with pa. tlcnco and dovotlon sho mlnlstorcd to his every want, giving ovorytlilng her per sonal attention, and trying to cheer and brighten him when ho was peevish and fretful. Tho utmost persuasion was re quired to induce her oven to Ho down. On Sunday she grew so faint fromsheer ex. baustion that sho reeled and would have fallen had not one of the nurses caught ucr in nor arms. Mr. Greshom's illness began May when be was attacked with acute pleurisy, Tho effusion filled tho pleural cavity, but his condition yielded to treatment until last Saturday, whon he suffered a rolapse, accompanied ly acute pneumonia. Ill condition since that timo has been ex. tremol y critical. His heart action became enfeebled, requiring thoconstantadminis tration of tho most powerful hoort stlmu louts.

Dr. Van Ransseluir, ah expert -yotlng sur geon, was hastily sent for. He oponed a rein m tno ion arm an infused a pint tho stricken statesman hod revjml somo what. The secretary lay In ono of n suite ot rooms on the ground floor of tho Johnson annex of the Arlington Hotel. At Ills bedside woro Mrs. Gresham, hie devoted wife; his daughter, Mrs. B. Y.

Secretary Gresham was conscious al most tho entire ovonlng. Many times ho inquired for his sou Otto, who) was on his way from Chicago. Secretary Lamont and his private secretary, Mr. Scogor, kept tho wires busy trying to locate him with the purpose of hastening his arrival, If possible, by means of a speclol train. It was discovered about 9 o'clock that Otto Gresham was on tho Pennsylvania lim ited, due to reach Altoona, Pa., at mid night.

Walter Quintln Grcsham was a soldier, a Judgo and a statesman, Ho roso to tho rank of major general of volunteers dur ing tho rebellion. Ho was for fourteen years United States district judgo of In diana and for eight years United States circuit judgo for Illinois, nnd hold three cabinet portfolios: Postmaster cenoral and secretary of the treasury under Ar thur, aud secretary of 6tato under Cleve land. Mr. Grcsham was born In Hnrrison county, Ind., on St. Patrick's day, 1832. His grandfather was a farmer, honest, faithful and courageous, particularly noted for his piety. His fnthor learned tho cabinet making trade, which ho pur sued togother with farming. His courage made him a most popular idol in his neighborhood, and ho became a colonel ot militia. His mother, Sarah Davis, was of Scotch-Irish descent. Tho hbUsp in which Bho lived until her death, a fovy years ago1, ouu in wnicn Her distinguished son was born, was a humble cottage perhaps twenty feet wide and thirty long, u story and a halt In front, standing on a side of lull past which runs tho old Indiana state road. Until his mother's death Judgo Gresham often visited her there. In 1833 Grcsham s father was elected sheriff, und the next year -was murdered by a noted desperado whom ho had gone to arrest. His mother was loft a widow with five small children. Walter Q. was but 2 years old when his father was killodj and Benjamin, the eldest, was S. A strug gle onsued, but from tho hard hand of penury thoy earned tho right to llvo and llually to prosper. Benjamin, llko his father, learned the trade of carpenter, but nlso clung to'Jhe farm. By dint ot hard work and tho as' slstanoo of his. brother Waltor succeeded lu entering tho seminary ot Corydon, Two- years thero anil one at Uloomingtdh unli vorslty complotod his education so far as schooling was concerned. He began tho study of law under Judgo W. A. Porter, ono of tho noted characters ot southern Indiana, whllo acting as deputy clerk, and In 18ol entored into partnership with Thomas C. Slaughter, an cmlnont lawyer of thot tlmo and afterwords judge of thp circuit court, To combine law and politics was then the universal custom with young lawyers in tho United States, and Gresham wns no exception to tho rule. His admission to tho bar and tho Nebraska agitation were coincident. Tho Whig party, with which all of his political traditions were associated, had dissolved. In 1855 tho ltd- publican party was formed and with' it Gresham at once alllod himself. Hi: stumped his sootlon of tho State for iatnnnuer Fremont, wuo nod boon nominated ut Philadelphia. In tho law Gresham had gained a good reputation as a careful, painstaking lawyer. Meantime tho country was sweeping on to great events. Mr. Gresham was elected to the legislature, where ho, as chairman of tho committee on military affairs, brought forward a militia bill which ploced Indiana on a wur footing. With tho llrst shriek of war s alarm Governor Morton appointed him lieutenant colonel of tho Thirty-eighth Indiana, but boforo he saw uctivo service ho was oppointed colonel of the Fifty-third Indiana. In De cember, 1801. Grcsham's regiment was ordered to join Grant after Donaldson. Grcshum was guarding tho station at Savannah when tho battle of Pittsburg Landing (Shiloh) occurred. He partici pated iu tho siege of Corinth, howovor, and later took part In Grant's Mississippi campaign and the siege of Vlcksburg. Au- gust 11, 1803, ho was appointed brigadier general on tho recommendation of Grant and Sherman, and placed In command ot tho Natchez district, In tho following spring he was placed in command of tho division of tho Seven toenth corps of tho army of tho Tennessoe, which took part In the campaign ugainst Atlanta. Ho was In tno battle ot Kone- saw Mountain and in tho engagement that!followed until J uly 20. At Leggett' Hill, before Atlanta, ho was struck by a sjinrpsnooters uuuet just uoiow tho knee, It was a dreadful wound, and kept the gallant general on the Held for a year. To tho day of his death Gresham nover rccov crcd the full use of his limb. Many tlmos the surgeons said the leg must como off. but the sufferer replied! "Whon that leg goes I go too." Ho saved the leg, but v?as on crutches for several years. Tho war ovor Goneral Gresham returned to his profession, forming a law partner ship utNow Albany, Ind. In 1800 he wai nominated for congress against M, C. Kerr, but tho district was heavily Demo cratic, and ho was defeated. Whon Gen eral Grant booame presldont he offered blm tho collectorshlp of the port of Now Orleans, the second best ofHoe of tho kind tu tho oountry, but he deollued, as ho did the position of United Stages district at torney of Indiana. Ho was finally prevailed upon to accept the United Slatos district judgeship for Indiana, which he held until April, 1883. When Garfield' was forming his cabinet 3reshaih's rirtme Was' among thoso origi nally agreod upon. Blaine particularly urged his selection. The! situation became such that Garfield wosoompelledtoraoaify his original Intention aud Greibam was not Invited to accept n portfolio, Garfield was ossasBiuated and Arthur succeeded him. When Postmaster General Howo died In April, 1883, Gresba;n, then holding". court at uivansvme, was veuuureu ma cabi net position by tolegraph and accented. Near the close of Arthur's term, on tho secretary of the tretutiry, a position he held until Oetobw, lstM, when ho with drew from the cabinet altogether. in Deccfmber, 1881. Judgo Drnmmond having retired from the olHeoof United Stntos circuit judge, President Arthur, who had taken him from the bench, had tho satisfaction ot restoring him to tho bench ot the close ot his service. Iu 18S8 Judge Grcshatn Was mndo n prominent caudidato tor tho Republican nomination for tho presidency at tho Chi cago convention against Harrison, Sher man, Alger, Allison nnd other Repub lican leaders whoso names wero presented. Harrison ultimately captured tho Indiana delegation, however, and was nominated. Previous to that Gresham had displayed a Btrong Inclination to dissent, from tho ex treme high tariff doctrlno of tho Repub lican party. His liberal views on tho tar iff created against him tho antagonism of the extreme protectionists at Chicago. When tho Republicans assumed power and revised tho tariff by tho passage of tho KcKlnlcy law Judgo Gresham, with other Republicans, openly dlssontcd, and in 1802, after tho nomination of Mr. Cleve land by tho Democrats, he, with other distinguished Republicans llko Wayno Mo Vcagh, who was attorney general Under Arthur, renounced their nlleglauco to the Republican party and advocoted Mr. Cleveland's election. Aftor Cleveland was last elected ho summoned Judgo Grcsham to Lake wood, N. J., where after a cou- sultotlbn he tendered him tho position of premlor of tho cabinet ho was forming.
