Condon, an ex-Confederate, and for rnany years a . prominent Democrat of Knoxville, Tennessee, where he has held important municipal offices, gives his rea sons for joining the Republican party in the present .conflict. He recognizes that the tariff is the paramount issue of the hour The old free-trade policy, he says, had for its foundation the production by slave labor of raw cotton for export, in,exchange for the manufactured goods of England. The same free-trade policy applied to Ireland, years ago, has ruined her, has changed her from a thrifty and prosperous country to be one cy the most impoverished, unhappy, and worst- governed countries on the face of the civil ized globe, has reduced her population in the last forty years from 8,000,000 to 5,000, 000, and driven her children into exile in order that they might live at all. Free trade, he adds, that was fought for in the war was based oh slave labor. To-day it only means the same thing except in name. It rieans ill-paid, impoverished labor of all kinds, whether of the mechanic or the farmer! The Democratic party have not and will not give up free trade. They have always kept np agitation for changes in the tariff, the only effect of which has been to keep back our growth and to unsettle business. Mr. Condon does not find it necessary to go abroad to learn the comparative effects of free trade and protection on industry and the earnings of industry. He points out that States which have taken hold of the American idea heartily and with all their might have prospered, and those which have not have fallen behind in the race. Tennessee and Pennsylvania are selected by Mr. Condon as two States for comparison, both being of about equal natural wealth. In 1860, the value of the farms in Tennessee was $271,- 000,000; in 1880, their value had fallen to $306,000,000. In Pennsylvania farms were worth $662,050,707 in 1860, and in twenty years the value had increased to $975,689, 410. Pennsylvania had invested $475,000, 000 in manufactures, and in 1880 paid $134, 000,000 in wages to 387,000 employes, used $465,000,000 worth of material and turned- out $744,818,445 of manu factured product. In the same year Tennes see had only $20,092,845 invested in manu- f&ctures, employing 22,245 persons, who re ceived in wages $5,254,755, the manufactured product amounting to $37,044,886. And yet, notwithstanding the difference in the value of agricultural lands, Tennessee has , almost as many people employed in ' agriculture aa Pennsylvania, while it would be a libel on the vast but undeveloped natural wealth - of the former State to call it inferior to that of the great northern commonwealth of iron and coal. . Mr. Condon urges that it is high time for the farmers, mechanics, merchants, manu facturers and everybody else to go in for the American policy that has paid atf well, and to quit the old free-trade policy that has blighted everything it has touched, and - he adds that the Republican party has fought for the American policy; the Democratic party for free trade. The fight is still on, as the Morrison bill showed. This is the situa tion, and it especially behooves the , people of Mr. Condon's own section to realize it. KOITOKIAL NOTES. The New York- World ought to know bet ter than to say' thai ex-President Woolsey was "at first prominent in the Independent movement." He never had anything to do with that movement. ' - A new argument against the Mother Hub bard has been found. "At Pendleton-, Ore gon, notices have been posted forbidding the wearing of the offending gati" 'without a belt, on the grottad that it frightens . horses and causes fatal accidents: : " , ' " ' Mr. Watterson does not mean, to! have Cleveland's attitude toward the tariff misun derstood. . V 'Three-fourths of the Democrats in the last Congress," he vfriteas ;' 'supported the Morrison bill, which proposed to reduce war taxes. With those Democrats and their purpose Governor Cleveland was in thorough sympathy." j:5.:-s The moat important outcome of the recent science congress at Philadelphia promises to be the organization of an international . asso ciation of science. : , , According to the commit tee charged to consider and report upon the matter, there is now scarcely a doubt that the scheme will be carried successfully through. It has received the heartiest sanc tion of the foreign to prescntativea before whom it has been brought. A writer in the Union Medicale tells of a charlatan " who counsels people to take every thing coolly, and if the cholera poison enters the system to receive it without anxiety., "Would you destroy it!" he asks. "All you have to do is to swallow a teaspoonful of this remarkable preparation, the secret of which the great Napoleon brought from Egypt. The reason why men have cholera is because they are unable to digest its active contagious principle. But after introducing a few drops of this elixir the poison digests as pleasantly as a simple cutlet; indeed, there is nothing to show that my preparation is not much more digestible than a cutlet." By his side the charlatan carries anti-choleraic belts. "These," he said, "are not only beau tiful ornaments for the person, but contain over fifty sachets, any of which will save any lady from cholera." The man has many cus tomers. . We are glad to see the press of this State manifesting an interest in the biennial ses sions matter, which is to be decided next month. We are also glad to see that there is practically but one opinion about it, and that is that the amendment should be adopt ed. It certainly should. There is altogether too much legislation in this State and it costs too much. The laws are not made with the care they ought to be, ?and much of the time of each legislature is spent in "tinkering." With biennial sessions we should have fewer and better laws. This is not mere assertion. The experience of thirty two States which already have biennial ses sions shows it. If biennial sessions will re sult in less and better legislation (as they will) and if they will save the taxpayers a large amount of money (as they will) why continue behind the times by sticking to an nual sessions any longer! Mr. Richard Grant White does not want to have the people of Great Britain when they make constitutional changes borrow much from this country. He gives them this advice: Let them in their changing shun, first of all, a paid legislature; the un avoidable consequences of which are, that politics become a trade, and that trading politicians must surely soon become corrupt; next, the caucus, which places the manage ment of politics entirely in the hands of professional politicans, who manage them in their own interest; next, manhood suffrage, which, by making every man articulate, makes the halls of legislation vocal with the speeches and the votes of venal legislators; next, frequent elections and changes in office, which serve ends of professional politicians, keep up petty political excitement with no higher purpose than tho struggle for office, and divert the attention of people from other and better affairs; last, not least, an elective judiciary, the absurdity and the evils of which need not be pointed out to any reason able, observant man. In a community so pure and so intelligent that its judges may be safely elected, judges are not needed.

One of the most curious uses which have been made of electricity is in the interest of lion tamers. The apparatus is of great pow er, shaped like a stick, about three and a half feet in length. M. Ranspach, the inventor, is a lion tamer himself, who has been "a good deal worried" during a long and suc cessful professional career. He has already experimented with it upon the denizens of the cages in his menagerie, and relates the different effects upon the brutes. Three of his lions receiving the shock immediately showed signs of the greatest terror. They were seized with trembling and growled fit fully. The tiger was more quickly subdued, became stupefied, and crouched in a corner of the cage. Bruin was more refractory to elec tricity, which seemed' scarcely to affect him. He would growl and show his teeth, and was subdued after repeated discharge. The most astonishing effects, however, were percepti ble in the boa constrictor, On receiving the discharge, the specimen from Cayenne, near ly twenty feet in length, became at once par: alyzed and remained motionless for six hours afterward. When he recovered, he showed signs of numbness for three whole days. Finally, the elephant on being electrified by a touch of the stick upon the tip of his trunk set up a series of wild cries, and became so strange that the tamer feared the brute would break its heavy iron chain. M. Rans pach is said to intend addressing a paper up on the experiments to the Academy of Sciences. NOISE.

Boston Post. - ...... .,., - . ... - Serplona and Centipedes. All the Year Round. Frequently though the scorpion is met with, yet a sting from one is rare. An in stance coming" within my observation was that of my chowkeedar, who had been stung during the night while asleep on his mat in the corner of the veranda, where the reptile had evidently dropped down from above. I was awoke by a loud "bapre-bap" and the very familiar "sapkatdia" ("Father, oh, father, a snake has bitten me!") and, on go ing to the spot with a light, we discovered the assailant to be not a snake, but a scor pion, which was standing motionless in the corner, still angrily curving its tail a dis covery which afforded unspeakable relief to the chowkeedar, who had thought his last hours had come, and who now with folded hands,and upturned eyes devotedly acknowl edged his escape in the exclamation: "Dohar Ram Ji, jan buchgara" (Mercy, oh, Ram, my life is spared!) He had pressed upon the reptile, no doubt, while turning round, and had been stung on the arm, which rapidly swelled to a great size, accompanied by pain so excessive as to cause a feeling of f aintness. With his mind, however, relieved from the "worst," he goon set about collecting herbs from the compound and .- garden, - under the application of hot mashes of which the . pain gradually subsided, in a couple of days. Being curious to watch the habits -of the scorpion, I placed one under a glass case along with a grasshopper two inohes long, whose sharp-spiked legs constituted its strong natural defense. j; or a wmie tne scorpion took no notice of the wild leaps of his com nanion.thoucth every now and again it struck against him in rebounding from the glass cover, but at length, irritated by the contin uance of these, it assumed the offensive. After several unsuccessful clutches, he man aged to seize with his toes a leg of a grass hopper, which he held in his jaws, while en deavoring to transfix him with his sting, till he succeeded in driving it through and through him. The leaps of the grasshopper now speedily grew feebler, and soon he lay motionless and dead. For twenty-four hours the scorpion took no further notice of his companion, and then, pressed by hunger, he bethought himself of him, and speedily de voured him. Like the scorpion the centipede also seems partial to grasshoppers, when it can get them. An enormously magnified copy as it is of the little home centipede, the sight of one f.ve or six inches long, with its multitude of prehensile feet all moving at once, and its long feelers steering its way, causes an in voluntary creeping of the flesh. Once while reclining on a sofa perusing a daily paper after mid-day breakf ast,preparatory to "turn ing in" for the customary siesta, I was sur prised by a thump-thumping against a news paper which was lying in a corner of the room, and the continuance of the sound in duced me to jump up to ascertain the cause, suspecting, of course,a snake and frog. The raising of the paper disclosed a centipede about five inches long, holding in his jaws a large grasshopper, which he was quietly hollowing out without the least regard to the frantic kicks of his viotim, which had occa sioned the noise against the paper. Nor did he seem disposed to relinquish so choioe a morsel, but allowed himself to be turned -over and over without even relaxing his hold; and as the grasshopper could not physically recoup his loss, I let his devourer continue, till in a quarter of an hour only the shell re mained, and only then did the diminishing kicks of the grasshopper cease altogeth er. On another occasion, In the hot month of May, during my morning ablutions, while raising the Bponge to my face, I was met by the nearer view of an ugly pair of horns, fol lowed by a head, emerging from one of the pores. Not an instant too soon, I dropped it down again on the basin stand, upon which the full length of a hideous centipede grad ually unwound itself. Such are instances of the way these rep tiles are come upon now and again in India, generally when and where least expected, and showing the weariness people require to prac tice in every movement, even in lifting a book or paper, or putting the hand any where where the eye does not also reach. The bite of the centipede is rarely heard of, but it is more or less poisonous, and, like the string of the scorpion, is considered serious to children. A Boy Robs a Bank;. From the St. Paul Pioneer -Press.! News spread yesterday that the People's bank of St. Paul, at the corner of Seventh street and Sibley, had been robbed. The story was that Edward Mason, the messenger of the bank, a boy about sixteen years old, had run off with a large amount, supposed to be about $4,000. Inquiry at the bank re ceived from Mr. E. C. Rittenhouse, the cash ier, confirms the story. Mr. Rittenhouse said: "There were two compart ments in our burglar-proof chest. The up per one contained the counter cash. The lower one held the bank reserve, amounting to about ?zo,uw. These were entirely separ ate, having different combinations. The amount of cash and gold in the upper safe was lo.uzi. un coming to tne bank: on Mon day morning earlier than usual I found the vault door locked, but the outer door of the burglar proof safe was unlocked. The cash and gold to tne amount ot ?o,uai ,were gone. Nothing else was touched. There were clear ing house checks, other papers and the silver in the tray, to the amount of $200, all left as usual. My opinion is that the amount was taken from the safe after my departure from the bank, about 5:15 o'clock Saturday eve ning. Mason was left alone about three quarters of on hour after that time to get up his daily balance-sheet. The bookkeeper on his return found the vault door locked, the books put away and everything about the office as usual. We have learned that young Mason had planned and talked about tnis robbery at least three weeks ago. I he boy was recommended to me by a gentleman of high standing in this city, who had known the family for many years. He recommend ed the boy in high terms. I had never seen or heard anything of the boy that would arouse suspicion." Young Mason lived with his mother on Iglehart street, near Wabasha. He bears the name in the neighborhood of being a man nerly, bright boy, fond of fun in the evening and attentive to his work in business hours. He went regularly to the bank and was very rarely off duty. From the fact that a young boy friend of Mason's, named Charles R. Parker, has not been seen since Saturday night, it is supposed that he has gone off with the youthful robber. Tne End or JMelt Tweed. New York Letter to Boston Globe. Bill Tweed's eldest son Dick, who at one time took the Metropolitan Hotel, it seems has died insane in Paris. He made a failure of the Metropolitan Hotel, and the failure happened close on the culmination of things which ruined his father's power. I had the melancholy privilege of holding a long inter view with Tweed after he returned to this country. As I had never had anything to do with him in his day of power.he" excepted me from the other press people here, and let me come to see him. He told me that if he could only get out of jail he would go to the most uninhabited and unsocial land and spend the remainder of his days. He said that when he went from Cuba to Spain on a small Spanish vessel . he played solitaire on the deck by himself with delight, and would help scrub the decks almost: with joy. His son, and it may have .been the same son Richard, was standing on the wharf at Vigo when Tweed was marched out of prison and put on a United States vessel. He told me that he and the son never spoke to each other, indulging the faint hope that if he was not positively identified he might yet get off by some prooess of law. Sweeny is' still living in Paris. He married a woman for merly the wife of Page, the artist, by whom he has a child. Sweeny .has some mind, and ' cap enjoy himself reading and perhaps writ ing. . If we remember the time of Tweed, what must be our concern to find that at this moment there has been merely a. change of persons, while the same organizations exist which rendered rweeea possible.
