The Bachelors.?T!:e Bachelors
went through with the funeral obsequies
of the late Perpetual Reporter
on last Tuesday night. Resolutions
intensely svrapathic were introduced
by the Grand High Chancellor. These
were debated at length and finally
adopted without amendment-. After
a great deal of skirmishing each man
succeeded in establishing to his own
satisfaction his fidelity to the Union
under the constitution. The'services
being entirely oyer, the remains of the
Reporter were formally consigned to
the infinite gloom of dealb, and with
a noiseless tread that would almost
defy emulation the members repaired
each to his own private retreat.
Tiie Leap Year Ball.?The costumes
of the ladies of the recent leap
year ball were simply beautiful and
upon this point all tastes except the
hopelessly vitiated were at agreement.
They were briefly as follows:

A Practical Difficulty.?The following
is told oil one of our young fellows
and can be altogether pretty well
authenticated. While in the city of
Charleston a year or two ago he had
the honor it seem? to escort a very
pretly young lady out to some entertainment.
When he weut in all was
well and he had no idea for the next
two hours that he would ever be unhappy
again, in fact from the way she
talked he went so far as to conclude
that may be he had worried through
' ' 11 J1 - J- T. V ,
Wiin aooiii an uie iroaoie mat was
e^cr intended for him in this world.
Not so however, "the expectation of
the wicked faileth." The bright sky
which he had left on ?oing in, he
fjund on coming out bad disappeared
entirely, and lo the heavens was covered
with darkness and the the rain
was pattering on the street. A street
car was heard coming in the distance,
fearing that he might forget, the young
lady suggested that they take that car.
If any one can imagine how the old
Napoleon felt when he saw the old
guard go down on the field of Waterloo,
he will have a faint idea of our
Tr?/Yc of mAmanf fnn i>o

suddenly recollected that there was not
a red in his pocket. Thrown headlong
upon his genius in this style, he made
a desperate effort to stave off the consideration
of the subject. In this he
failed, and was finally driven in the
hurry of the moment to the allegation
that bis chips had been left inadvertually
in his from. Upon thisadmission,
the yonng lady begged him not to be
embarrassed, bat to fall aboard, as she
was not strapped. This he did reluctantly
enough of coarse and they rode
home surrounded by all the solemnity
of a coming funeral. "Well, next morning
he thought he ought to do something,
and he did do something so unlike
himself that those who knew him
are bound to suppose that he was suffering
from "emotional insanity." He
sent the young lady back the five cents
that she had expended on him and left
her out of pocket the five that went on
her own account.
EXEMPTING FACTORIES.
Messrs. Editors: Will you have -.he
patience to insert in vour columns a
few extracts from Nordhoff which have
some bearing on the "Exemption E11courgement"
plan for promoting the
establishment of factories. Speaking
of the gradual development of a country,
lie savs: "The greater operations

.' ' - , - - ' ..." ? - '
! of industry) which require extreme
concentration of bdth tabor and capital,!
! will be long deferred until at last the !
country's natural resource* are fully j
j explored, and the accumulation ot
| wealth and the increase of population j
are both so great as to lend naturally !
and safely to such employment for 1
both. The stages of development in 1
| such a case will be slow, but sure, and j
I there will be no great crisis or panic, j
nor any marked lowering of the con- j
dition of the people. Their ingenuity j
and desire for prosperity would lead j
hem ta devise new industries, an'? con-1
trol new enterprises as fast as cnpit.il |
and labor afford to prosecute them;
and it is an important consideration
that these new enterprises would grow
? l ii_. ?x 4.1,^
I uauiram out ui uiu uuiiuluuio ui ujv; i
country, as to climate and production,
and the wants of the people.
"Unfortunately this natural and
sound growth is not permitted. Different
motives, among which are national
pride, a desire for more showy production,
the subtle fallacy of a "home
market," so called, but mainly the
greed for wealth and supremacy in
; individuals, unite to bring about 1 lie
adoption of unjust and partial laws,
enacted to favor some special branch of
industry."
Then, going on to speak of the results
of the establishment of factories
tn thp Tirntfefctive nlau in New Enn
land, he says: "The effect of the protective
duty was: 1st. By offering an
unnaturally high reward to capital, to
draw that away from a number of
smaller industries, and concentrate it
in a few great buildings filed with
costly machinery. 2nd. To draw away
a large part of the laboring population
from their petty industries and their
country homes into large manufacturing
towns. and employments which
made them more dependent and less
ingenious and self helpful than before,
"The life of a mill or factory operation
being of a kind offering few hopes
of advancement, and a smaller chance
of independence than intelligent and
enterprising people like to submit to,
the best class of the New England
population presently withdrew from it
or never entered it.
* * * ' * * # *
"The manufacturers, to fill the gap,
began systematically to import foreigners.
mostly of a low grade of in- i
telligence, and have continued to do
this to the present time; with results
evident to the country in a gradual but
serious deterioration in the character
of the population, the corruption of
politics, the increase of vice, crime and
ignorance.
* * * * *. * *
"The average of comfort and prosperity
in ITew England is much lower
thau it was before 'Protection7; and
pauperism has greatly increased.
"You see here that 'Protection to

people who were protected at the same
time that it was unjust to that great
mass of the population which, not being
engaged in cotton manufactures,
was not protected."
I will close by another quotation,
this time from Dickens.
"Th^ 'fflflt'WifL -;_f this observation

ain't no part of my duty. Avast' then,

within five months, at times running it so
fast that the needle wou!d get perfectly hot
f rom friction. I feel -confident T could not
have done the sanra^qrork with as much ease
sal so well with any othar^machine. No
time was lost in adjusting attachments. The
lightest running machine I have
