Aocennt -of the Impressive Ceromony*
A Call on 'he President.
"WABHINefBeiN, Oct. 9. Ctiiei-j-astico
Fuller kas taken his oath cf oSbe and
assumed nhe active duties of the posi
tion. hour before the Hmo for
the opening of the court the narrow
space allotted to the general public
in the court chamber was -crowded
by men and women, who wanted to wit
ness the ceremony of the installation of a
Chief Justice. Among the 'people of noto
who found places in the room was Judge
Allen G. Thurman, who was -conducted to
a seat within the space reserved for the
Marshal and who became a conspicuous
'center of attraction during tbo half hour
preceding the entry of the Justices Mrs.
Fuller, wife of the Chief Justice, with
six daughters and One son, for
whom seats were reserved, Mrs.
Justice Harlan, Mrs. Senator Cock
r-ell, Attorney-General GfiriancL (^Jap-
anese Minister Matsu, wife ana Secretary
Senators Davis, Butler, Hampton, Far
well, George, Mitchell, Dolph and Spoon
er Congressmen Breckenridge, Wheeler
and Herbert, of Alabama, and Solicitor
General Jenks.
The Chief Justice arrived a the Capitol
at half-past 11 and proceeded to the private
office of the court, where he took trie oath,
of allegiance in the presence of the Asso
ciate Justices, the oath being administered
by the senior member of the court, Asso
ciate Justice Miller.
At 12 o'clock the gavel of the crier fell,
and at the announcement, "The Honorable
Associate Justices of the Supreme Court
of the United States," the seated
portion of the assemblage arose and
remained standing in respectful si
lence. The Associate Justices, in
their robes of silk, headed by the
Marshal, entered in proces&ion as usual.
The Chiel Justice, also wearing his robe
of office, was escorted to a place at the
clerk's desk. The Associate Justices
bowed to the assemblage and took their
seats They were only six in number,
Justices Gray and Matthews being absent.
The crier made the usual announcement
of the opening of the Court, and after a
moment of silence. Justice Miller said:
"Gentleman, oj the bar: I have the pleasure to
Inform you that since the last meeting of this
Court and adlournment a Chief Justice, Hon.
Melville \V. Fuller, has been appointed, con
tinued by the Senate and reeen ed his commis
sion. He is here and ready to take the oath of
office. The clerk will read the comm.ss on
Clerk McKinney read the commission,
alter which Judge Fuller arose and, hold
ing- the Bill in one hand, read, fioin
manuscript the oath of office.
I, Melville Weston Fuller, do solemnly
swear (or affirm) that I will administer
justice without respect to persons, and do
equi 1 right to the poor and to the rich,
and that I will faithfully and im
partially discharge and perform all the duties
incumbeuton me as Chief Justice of the United
States, according to the best of my abilities
and understanding, agreeably to the Constitu
tion and laws of the United States, so help me
God."
His voice was clear and his enunciation
firm and distinct at the beginning, but
before the erd was reached a marked
tremor was manifest. The new Chief Jus
tice was now escorted behind the bar and to
his official seat in the center. Again the
court and the assemblage arose, this time
without other summons than a wave of
the hand the Clerk Justice Miller
took the hand of the Chief Just.ce and
with a smile of welcome addressed him
in a low voice: I welcome you. sir, on
behalf of this court, as one of
its members and its Chief Justice The
Chief Justice bowed, took his seat, and
when the assemblage was again seated he
said. "I -will say to the members of the
bar that, as is the well-known usage, the
court will transact no business to-day, but
applications for admission to the bar will
be entertained."
When the installation of new members
of the bar had been completed, the Chief
Justice announced that all motions set for
to day would stand over until to-morrow,
when the court would proceed with the
doeket. He said, that MI accordance with
immemorial usage, the court would ad
journ to give the members -n opportunity
to pay their respects to the President. The
crier then announced the court adjourned
the Chief Justice and his Associates re
tired to the conference room and in a few
moments the court-room was cleared. The
Justices removed their robes, and taking
carriages proceeded to the White House to
call on the President.
Shortly before 1 o'clock the members of
the Supreme Court, with the exception of
Justice Matthews, and headed by Marshal
Wright and Clerk McKenny called at the
White House. The party were
ushered into the Blue Room,
where the President soon joined
them. Some twenty minutes were spent
in pleasant conversation. The east room
at the time was well filled with people
awaiting the President's regular Monday
reception but none were admitted into
the Blue Room. Chief-Justice Ful
ler and Justice Lamar, the two new
members ef the Supreme Court bench,
were much observed by the curious crowd,
which watched the departure of the dis
tinguished party. Having performed the
Usual time-honored custom of calling on
the President when the Court first con
venes the fall, the members departed.

CHICAGO, Oct 9LThe ollowm? estimate
of the total corn crop of the United States
for 1888 was compiled by the Farmers' Be
view: "Ohio, 130,869,992 bushels Indiana,
159,543,013 Illinois, 285,503,470 Iowa, 306,-

for the seven States, 1,435,184,S58, as
compared with 730,425,000, the yield
reported by the Department of Ag
riculture for 1887, or a gain of 654,759,-
858 bushels. Assuming that the crop in
other States will be equal to fhat reported

COTTON AND WOOLEN MANUFACTURES.
Cotton OoodsUnder the existing
tariff all cotton manufacturers are pro
tected by a specific duty equivalent to
about 40 per cent, on the average
common grades less, and the fine
grades more. The Mills bill abolishes
all specific duties and substitutes a
sweepi ng ad valorem duty at 40 per
cent, for all kinds of goods. As the
ad valorem duttes invite fraudulent e
ffoderrt^ad&b'ne which practically re
duce duties $ to 10 per cent., the prac
tical eSedt'df such, a change in the)uearted
tariff wetdd'be to reduce the protee-i
tion oa ffine goods so as to prevent?
their (manufacture in this country *t
Woolen (JoodsThe present tariff
imposes a duty of about 85 cents per
pound'(as ani equivalent for the duty
on wool, of which the wool-grower
receives the benefit), and 35 per cent,
ad valorem on coarse and 40 per cent,
ad valorem on fine goods. As the
pound duty is intended to be made a
little more than the average duty on
the wool, to guard against errors,!
that is also a slight protection to those
engaged in woolen manufacturing.
The Mills bill abolishes the pound
duty (because of free wool) and imideputies
poses an ad valorem duty of 35 per
cent, and 40 per cent, on imported
woolens. Th farmer loses the ad
vantage of the duty on wool, and the
manufacturer is left with nothing but
the ad valorem duty on imported
woolens, the effect ot which, must be
to increase importations, develop
greater undervaluations, and thus in
jure the home manufacturers.Boston

IMPORTS AND PANICS.
The Close Connection Existing Betweei
Tariff Reduction ana Disaster.
It is a striking and important fact
that the three great panics of the past
half century in this country followed
close upon the heels of tariff reductions
and increased importations. I 1832
the "compromise" tariff reduction
bill dictated by the South was
adopted, and was followed by further
reductions in 1834 and 1836. Th
effect upon importations is indicated
by the following table:
Net itn- Import* per
YEAR. ports. capita
1833 $76,989,793 f5 61
1833 88,295,570 25
1834 108.208,^1 7 09
1835 129,391,24? 8 61
1836 168,233.67.5 10 93
In figuring the imports per capita we
have, and will in the following tables,
allow the percentage of increase in
population, iov each, year shown
the census of population for the pre
ceding decade. The above table shows
that in the four years following the
adoption of the tariff reduction bill
of 1832 the importations nearly
doubled per capita and more than
doubled in volume. Oar own manufact
ures were crippled, we began piling
up a load of debt to foreign countries,
and the terrible panic ot 1873 followed.
That put a stop to the excess of imports,
which, were reduced to $101,264,609, or
$6.24 per capita, in 1838,
The Mills bill proposes an average
reduction of 23 per cent, in our present
tariff, puts one-sixth of all our im
ports on the free list, and. its adoption
would be followed by paralyzed borne
production, an enormous increase in
imports and undoubtedly by great dis
tress and panic.
The tariff reduction bill f 1846 was
not closely followed the effect
that was to have been expeeted, but it
came in due time and with terribly
crushing foree. I 1346 our net im
ports (retained for home consumption)
were 102,183,653, or $4.-86 per capita.
The further increase up to 1857 was as
follows:

1855 238,020,227
1856 298,261,364
1857 339,914,524
In the eleven years from 1846 to
1857 the volume of imports increased
more than three-fold, while the in
crease per capita, the true measure,
ran up from $4.86 to $11.73, or from
about $25 to $58 per family. Then
came the crash, sweeping and de
structive, that paralyzed the industry
of the whole Nation.
These two historical reductions of
the tariff were made by the Dem
ocratic party to satisfy the demands of
the South for free trade, not because
of excessive revenues.
The exigencies of the war created
a high tariff upon all imports, whether
we produced the articles or not, and
equally high internal taxes. I 1868
the Republican party began the re
duction of both the tariff and the in
ternal taxes, because the enormous
revenues were no longer needed. Th
purpose waH right, the tariff was re
duced, but with protection always in
view, and the effect upon importations
was slight compared to what- it wowld

have been had the free-trade plans
proposed by Democrats for reducing
the revenues been adopted. But even
as it was the effect was startling. Im
portations began at once to increase,
and that increase is recorded below:

1870 439.950,428
1871 513,033,809
1872 617,569,017
Then followed the panic of 1873,
which prostrated the whole business of
the country, and a heavy decrease in
importations.
What is exhibited above conclusive*
ly shows that over importations inva*
riably precede destructive business
panics, in that ovev importations are
the natural consequence of tariff re
duction. The Democratic party pro
poses a sweeping tariff reduction thai
would enormously increase importa
tions. We have no reason to suppose
that if their scheme is adopted wfl
Bhould escape the consequences that
have followed in the former cases.

'Charlotte Corday, the sad-faced, tender
peasant girl of Kormany, made
great history by one desperate act!
tSicKsned "by xhs satwraalia. ot tHe "Frenda.
.evolution, and moved to desperation as
Robespierre and Marat were leading the
Sower of France.to the guillotine, she de
termined that she would put an end to
Marat's bloody reign.
Marat had demanded two hundred thou
sand victims for theguillotine!
He proposed to kill off the enemies of tha
Revolution to make it perpetual! pkf^^
Horrible thought!
No wonder it fired the blood of this patri
)tio peasant maid!
Gaming access to his "Jlosely-guarded
juarters by a subterfuge, sfte found him in
aisbath, even then inexorable and giving
written directions for further slaughter!
He asked her the names of the inimical
who had taken refuge in Caen.
She told him, and he wrote them down.
'That i well'. Before a week i over
ihey shall all be brought to the guillotine."
At these words, Charlotte drew from her
Dosom the knife, and plunared it with su
oernatural force up to the hilt in the heart of
Marat.
Come to me, my dear friend, come to
oae," cried Marat, and expired under ttie
blow!
In the Corcoran gallery at Washington is
a famous painting of Charlotte, represented
as behind the prison bars the day before
her execution.
It is a thrilling, sad picture, full of sorrow
for her suffering country,and of unconquer
able hate for her country's enemies*
Whata lesson in this tragic story! Two
hundred, nay, five hundred thousand peo
ple would Mavat have sacrificed to his un

Methods are quite as nmvderous and iu
ixorable as men, and they number their
victims by the millions.
The page of history is full of murders by
authority and by mistaken ideas! In the
pfseiiee of medicine alone how many hun
dreds of millions have* been allowed to die
indaa many more kuled by unjustifiable
burotry-aud bv bunalins!
But the age is bettering. Men and meth

worth one's professional life to advise or
permit the use of a proprietary medicine.

PLASTERS cure lumbago. Mr. Dean says:
Some ten days ago I was taken with a
very violent pain in the small of my back.
It was so severe that I could hardly
breathe every mavement -caused great
agony. I finally found out it was lumbago.
Being entirely helpless, a friend sent to a
druggist and got two ALLCOCK'S POROUS
PLASTERS these were well warmed and
applied to my hack, one above the other.
In half an hour, to my great delight and
surprise, I found the pain began to abate.
In two hours I was able to walk out and
attend to my tmsiness, the pain being al
most gone. Next day I was all right but
continued wearing the plasters for a week.
