The Golcraln?, Iroland, ChronicU, comment in# on Cleveland's message, says: "lu Ulster it is inferred that if tliia wise policy bo approved and adopted by the United States, tho Irish linon trade will be benefitted. A reduction of tho tariff on linen would onable tho linon manufacturers to cope under more equal terms with tho cot'on manufacturers, and thus a stimulus would ba given to tho staple Industry of tho province of Ulster." This is a clear and plain proposition. "Who can blamo tho peoplo of Ulster for rejoicing over tho suggestion of tho head o! a foreign government that his country Bhall do for Ulatcr what tho British Government H unablo to do??revive its onco great industry. Thero is no Amorican who would not bo glad to see revived the linen industry and all tho industries proBtrated, as every Irishman knowo, by the British policy of fioo trade. But at what coot aro we asked to aid in this rovival? Irish linen manufacturers aro to bo enabled, by tho policy of Preeidest Olbvolnud, to competo more successfully with tho cotton manufacturers of tho Unitod States. Tho labor of British subjects is to be fostered at tho oxpenso of the mou and women now engaged in the manufacture of cotton fabrics in the United States. Not only this. As the fjreicn linen works it* wjiv ^ntn United States it takes tho place of its oquivabntin raw cotton; the home dommd for cotton falls, price with it, and t tho British manufacturer of cotton fabrics pays less to tho Amorican cotton plautor for the raw material. By pursuing the policy which Frasidont Cleveland condemns as being a faleo national economy and impoverishing the poople.wohave amassed a national wealth of (JO,000 millions, making us thoiichent of the nationa of the earth, haro taken care of a national dtbi of 3,000 milliona and poured into poor, oppressed Ireland a steady stream of money to keep the wolf from her door and aid her in her desperate struggle for existence against tho tyranny of British landlords and of tho English Government. The frionda of protection have nothing to regrot, except that they have not pushed thoir policy far enongh; no other purpose than to stand by thoir guns until tho policy ol protection to Amorican industries shall bo do firmly rooted in tho confidence of the people that no politician will daro to ralso hia voice against it. Wo are coming to that time. Tho 8(ul Storjr of KatjdWl uud lJllly, A Now York woman had two pet birds of tho canary variety, Katydid and Billy. She loved them, pottod thorn and when the "shades of night were falling fast," kiesod thorn fondly and put them to bed on thoir little parch. Whother it wai this tender exhibition of affection, or the early morning chirping of tho birds, or a disordered livor or something else equally upsetting, a woman in the same house laid violent hands on tho birds and took away tneir little lives. Then there was a scene in court, whither the lato owner of the deceased went with their procioaa remains, tho one in a plugh-covetod, silver-bound casket, the other in a bottle. Tho judge was bo affected by thin no-rel sight and by the hot tears of the bereaved^ that ho sent the other woman?tho red-handed murderer, 00 to speak?to tho penitentiary for a long, long month. Tho woman who killed tho birds and gave New York justice a chance to vindicate itBolf ohould have bribod Aldermen, or had horeelf incorporated as a company to kill canarios. In either case alio would not have been railroaded through as ohe was, and If she had boon santenced to the peni? tentiary oho never would have reached thero. Why vrill intelligent persons on making thfco mistakes? CUIUSTMAS SUGGESTIONS. Invitations aio fluttering for Christmas we*>k at country houses, and there are probably many prayera for tho right kind ( of weather. Milady will give hor lorvanta a Christmas ball this year at h<r country house, and has coked frionda t( assist her in looking at the festivities. Tho significance of tin music at a recent wedding has Jod to trouble, and the organist bIiottb a note aaiing him to give tho . objected-to selections. Musical decanters, urork-baeketa and albums, although not novoltiea any more, come in now pattens and designs this season for "appropriate Christmas presents." Some elegant walking costumes are eson black roods, with tho front. ???!?? ami waist trimmed with India shawl material, the wearers of whijh look ob if they wore very contented. A store closet opening from the kitchen keopn the atmosphere dry, and articles aro leas liablo to gather dampness and mould. A cool and dry place is indiepenBible for a store room, A. email window over the door socurea coolness and fresh air. Easels of vhlte enamelled wood, inlaid with gofd, and having rollers, aro eoan, but do not cugjreat themselves to poo* pie who ro through life with the idea that papa'a trousers should ultimately be cut for brothor. In Bhort, they are too exnen liyo m tin caao of tire. "Mamma," said a?Philadelplila girl, "whnt would bo (in appropriate present to Rive Goorgo? Yon know wo are not engaged jet." "Hot long has he been calling upon yon?" "About two yeara." "Ihon I thiulc n pretty plain liint will bs the proper thing to giro him." A Cinderella pirty, or a "small and early," as it Is sometimes csllod, for young people, is one ol the favorite wayo recently devised for Christmas entertainment. The dancing stops at midnight, when all the Ginderellas must hasten home. To remind thsm of tha midnight hoar the dancing books aro ornamented with a tiny slipper.

I oay to girlo, don't givo your young man a cigarette case. Ho has a number nlroady, and cmokea more than is good for him; Don't give him a fiaak. Ho holds enough as itie. Dan't givo him a scarf pin or ring. Ho is sufficiently bedecked with jewelry. Don't givo him a mouchoir case. He smells now. Don't give him a caclie-nez, It will make liis throat delicato. Don't ombroider him a sofa cushion. He io lazy enough. Don't give him a walking otick. He'll leavo it in the first "art gallery" he goco to. Don't give him your photograph in a frame. Ho'll mention it at hit) club. But i? you want to bo kind, givo him a copy of ooino good, standard author on soino sensible,seriousBubject, and tell him that your regard and appreciation for him in the future depend entirely upon his familiarity with at least that ono cubject of living inioreat. * * It is rather more difficult toadvise young men how toehopfor their boot girla, but I should Bay: Don't give her a fan. She will eit down on it at her first ball, or you will if eho don't. Don't givo her a Bmelling bottle, unless you want hor to "feel faint" on every pcsBible cccaaion. Don't give her a girdlo, for it is the moat hidooua "ornament" of the age. Don't give her an enameled flower pin, for some other fellow is aura to have spared you the trouble. uon't give Her a bangle with a padlock and key, unless you want her to gi?gl? whenever sho gets alono with her girl ?riond8. Don't give her eilver ornaments for her dressing t?ble. She spends too much time thore already. D.ra't give .her a hon bonniero. Hei complexion is none too good as it is. Don't give her garter clasps. It isn't comme il faut. Don't send her flowers. She'll forget you by New Year's. But, dear boy, il you can persuade her to accept one tiny littlo theatre bonnet, not more than four inches tall, and can impress it upon her that all your future allegiance andhappinnea depend upon her wearing it whenever she goaa to the play, then indeed you have contributed to tho merry Xmtts of your species.
