According to Sentor Vest, we htve nut heard the last of the in fa mom decision of the United States supreme court on tyc income tax. Tho senator says: "The people of thia country will never submit to the system which has been put upon them by the suprame court of the United States, in opposition to it decision of an entire century. That Mr. Vender bilt, with his hundreds of millions of dollars, should pay no more for the support of the general govern, inent than the tooresl man in the J land, is abhorrent to every honest mind. The army and navy of the t United States, the military and financial resources of the govern ment, must be used to defend Mr. Vanderbilt's untold millions; and he pa vi simply internal revenue . Uses and tariff import duties upon hat he may choose to consume, ai i the poor man does the same. H t pays no more to support the an iy and davy than I do, or any oth tr person of this country, with, out t,?ard to his estate or means. The fopleo! the United States will i wver concede that either the state r national administration should defiled upon a basis like this. "Thir -decision, I say, has not attracted tle attentioii'that hereaf ter mutit be given to it.

Cut it is Madison county's time this year, and the populists and democrts are going to be heard from in this matter. e have able men in both parties as intelligent people ss there are anywhere and we do not come begging to be allowed to name the man, but demand it as right." The war flurry did some good anyhow; it gave the foreign press a chance to "talk right out in meetin'," telling boastfully how Rritish and other capitalists could injure the United States by with drawing gold from Undo Sam's treasury. They have unwittingly done thin country a great service; they have satisfied everybody ex cept a few guldbugs in the north east that the quicker we get away from the single standard the better it will be fur us.

Mr. Carlisle's proposition to re tire the treasury notes and green backs, and rely upon the national banks of the country for the cir eulating medium necessary to car ry on business, will never meet the approval of the people of this country, who are agreed that the hanks have all the power and pull thev need. l'rof.

Senator Vest of Missouri is one of the unterrified free silver ad vocates, and he is a man to whom his most able opponents, as well as friends, delight to give heed when he speaks. Mr. Vest in ado a rous ing speech in the senate a few days ago. He dwelt upon the fre quent bond issues of the present administration, and urged the ne cessity of free coinage to relieve the present serious financial situa tion, lie scored the supreme court for their decision annulling the TWELVE THOUSAND MILL ION PAPERS. The annual aggregate circula tion of the papers of the world is calculated to be 12,000,000,000 copies. To grasp an idea of this magnitude we may state that it would cover 10 fewer than 10,450 square miles of surface; tnat it is printed on 781,250 tons of paper, and further, that if the number, 12,000,000,000, represented, in stead of copies, seconds, it would take 333 years for them to elapse. In lieu of this arrangement we might pile and press them verti cally upward, till gradually reach ing our highest mountains, top ping all these and even the high est Al . the pile would reach the magnificent altitude of 490, or in round numbers, 50(3 miles. Cal culating that the average man spends five minutes reading his paper in the day (this is a very low estimate), we find that the people of the world altogether an nually occupy time equivolent to 100,000 years reading the papers.

In doing this an other mistake, or loss, of five hours, 1C minutes and 45 seconds occurs, and in 400 years this amounts to 21 hours, 7 minutes, so at the end of every fourth century the day is again added.
