At Ike Theatre.
Chas. n. Iloyt's new musical satire,
"A Brass Monkey," was presented to a
large and delighted audience at Harper's
theatre last evening. In this production
the author has aimed higher than he
usually does, and has told a connected
story with a pleasing result. "A Brass
Monkey" is more dramatic than anything
Mr. noyt has yet attempted. There is
some cau-by music, some captivating
dancing, bevies of pretty damsels, and
specialties enough to please the most in
veterate specialty lover. Excellent work
was done by Mm Florence Walsh (Mrs.
Chsrles II. Hoyt) as Baggage. She
danced and sang charmingly. Charles
Drew also made a hit, and his songs were
received with rounds of applause. The
Razzle-dazzle" song, which was also
one of the characteristic songs of "The
Bunch of Keys.' "caught on" as it
does always and encore after encore was
responded to.
Miss Mattie Vickers, the little queen of
comedy whom everybody likes, will ap
pear at Harpers tlieatre on Saturday
evening.
Miss Vickers lis an attractive stage
presence and shines all over with good
humor and unaffected cravetv. She is
graceful in movement, refined in manner,
effective in all her work, and has a bright
future before her. .sr. Jsnii J:,phlie.

Elder Head returned from Nekomis
last evening, where he dedicated a new
Methodist church which in size and finish
be says is creditablo to the members of
the congregation. There was a balance
or f JOUdue on the building which amount
was made good by the friends and con
gregation before the church was formally
dedicated. The church has a seating
capacity of five hundred, while the at
tendance was over one thousand. Elder
Head was in a good frame of mind over
the grand work displayed by the church
membership, and preached a sermon
which was a little bit outside of his usual
quarterly sermon. This makes the fourth
new church dedicated in his district -Tor
the year 1880. .

In fact good enough for President Har
rison or Queen Victoria.
Is it any wonder that the thinking
laboring class of our country are becom
ing more and more dissatisfied with the
revenue lawst Statistics Inform us that
the average tariff on dutiable goods dur
ing the war period, from '61 to '65 in
clusive, was only 34 per cent About
that time the government collected what
was known as an "income tax" and also
imposed a stamp tax on bank checks and
upon inalrumenis relating to real estate,
all of which brought considerable revenue
into the treasury. The poor and labor
ing class having little or no capital or
real estate were exempt from an income
tax, hut yet the tax of 34 per cent upwn
the necessariea of life bore heavily upon
them. Nevertheless the burden was
borne patriotically and patiently, for it
was war times and the life of the nation
was at slake and no patriot would com
plain then. It was said when the war
was over this tax upon necessities of life
should be first lightened. Has that
promise been lived up to? Have not the
stamp taxes and all taxea upon Incomes,
burdens which, as a rule, affected only
the rich, been repealed, while the tariff
duties which seriously oppress the poor
laboring class, have they not been in
creased until they now average from 4?
to fit) per cent? Is not the laboring man
compelled to pay tribute to a favored
class upon nearly everything he con
sumes, while bis muscle is kept con
stantly in competition with the un
taxed importations, of what is called
"pauper labor" from foreign lands?
Butno class are greater sufferers through
this' injustice than the farmer. He is
obliged to sell everything he raises in a
free trade market, while protection to
manufacturers, monopolies and trusts
enhances the price of most every thing he
baa to purchase, and the western
and northwestern farmers who can
onty realize sixteen cents per
bushel for his oats, is obliged to sell a
bushel, or thirty-two pounds of oats, to
buy one and six-tenths' pounds of sugar,
while the most he can do with a fat cow
or steer in the market is to sell at nearly
or quite a cent a pound less than the
actual cost of production. Are the
farmers going to stand this forever and
evert lou bet. they are not. And we
would notify all those who aid and abet
and encourage this legislative robbery,
that a greater dam than that at Cone
maugh is about to break, and if they
wiah to save themselves they will have to
nee to the mountains.

Vary Risky Indeed.
To tamper with symptoms indicative
of growing kidney diso-der; to neglect for
a brief time needful stimulation of the
renal organa when their inactivity points,
as it always and unmistakably does, to
their eventual perm an e it disease, s cer
tainly very risky indeed. This is, bow-
ever, a risk that many persons percepti
bly drifting into Brigbl'idisease, diabetes,
catarrh of the bladder. Ac, constantly
incur. o those who read, reflect and
heed the lessons of recorded experience,
tbe advisability of using Hosteller's
Stomach Bitters a diurttic, need scarcely
more than a suggestion. No fact is more
generally admitted by the medical pro
fession and the public than its efficacy
ror the prevention or serious renal dis
ease. The unmeditated excitants of com
merce, no matter how r tire, bear in mind,
react prejudicially upon the kidnevs when
inactive. The Bitters subdues maUris,
