A conespouauw ui tne. sprtnguei.i i Republican, writing from Germany, J gives the following account of the beer drinking habits of the professors and students of the German universities: I don't wish to overdraw the pic ture or paint it in false colors. I w ish it merely understand that the Germans as a race, are very fond of beer. Many of the old Heidelberg professors drink of an evening, thirty or' forty glasses in addition to what they have taken during the day. They do no manual labor" they drink not from ' thirst, but because they are accustomed to it; they take pride in boasting of the great number of glasses they have swallowed at one sitting. j I have le-iitd of German students j that have tii 11:1k seventy two to sev 1 eity-three glasses of an evening, and j German beer glasses are not wine : glasses in ni-.-, either.

If two or three or more stu dents have their photographs taken in a group, that they may distribute them among their intimate friends and brother students, to be remembered by in after years, the inevitable beer-mugs are sure to be prominent' features in the pictures.

'1 he Omaha Herald, seeing the signs of the limes, has concluded that it had hi tter get in shape to re-afllrm its as- si rtion of i90 thatdemocr:icy is not a free-trade party, because free trade is impracticable," and Mr. .1. Sterling Morton has determined not to argue the tariff question with the Republi can; but tt little paper down at Platts month, which has not yet received news from headquarters, is still peg' ging a way at the subject with all the energy that Filosophor Peri v Infused into its diminutive carcass. In its hist issue it learrauges and plagair- ies a Chicago Tribune article with the following result: There is a panic in the .steel rail manufacting business in America just now. :md a number of the works have closed. The fact is, the excessive tar iff of $ h , ton has had th effect of so stimulating this species of maun fad lire that there is an excessive sup ply on hands bevond the demand of the trade, and the pric has biiiMenly dropped from 3-W to 312 a ton., and the smaller lit in? aro obliged to close their works, throwing thousands of mechanics ami laborers out of employ in nt, to wait until the present stock is used up. or sell at the reduced price that the present market affords with the risk of loss. The fjict is these in urn lactones nave tieen making it proiit of about 10 per cent out of the business, until now there Is a halt in the business of rail-oad building, and they are brought face to face with the fact that (heir plot cot ion does not protect." Theie has been a eousiderable agi latioii in the sieel and iron market caused to some extent, uy over pro duction, to some extent by the fact steel rail prodiiceis have in the past two years placed too high prices on their products, and to some extent by the fear of the possible control of tar iff legislation by tin- free trade demo cratic party. IJut the Journal over estimates the misfortunes of the situa tion. Very few mills have quit woik and it is expected that they will short ly resume. However, these fats are of little value so far as the considera tion of the tariff question is concerned excepting as tliey show that our pro tected manufacturers cannot exact too high figures from the market with out suffering; for it is a matter of fact (which the Journal forgets to men- tion(, that more steel have been im ported from England in 18J (notwith standing American over-production) than have been imported timing the name length of time during any year within the last decade. Another matter which dees uot bear particularly upor. the tariff question, but about which it is well enough to bj truthful, is the matter of railroad construction. The Journnal says "that there is a halt in the business of railroad building." The fact is that thus far in lt82 about ,000 miles of new railroad have been bdilt, an am ount much larger than has been con structed in any oue year heretofore. The current number of the Railway Gazette begins an editorial article with this sentence: "There is a great deal of talk heard about the enormous raiir road construction of the present year, which is alleged to l e so mu?h In ex cess of the real needs of th? country, and which it is thought will have an injurious effect upon all railroad prop erties." The Journal, like ihe average free-trade advocate, never attempts to deal with matters of fact without deal ing in matters of fancy. Now let us look at the argument. The Journal says that the manufactu rers have been making a profit of 100 per cent. It also says that a reduction from SjO to 42 a ton has compelled a great many of these manufacturers to stop work. I one hundred per cent of 12? The original Journal ar ticle, as it appeared in the Chicago Tribune, contained the proof that the larger tirm3 could not afford to sell steel rails at 812, and that they had put the price at 842 (below cost ) to find a market. The Join rial quotes the tariff oti stel mils at 32i per ton. In a port ion of it article which we did .ot copy j al,u l"e umaha Herald, it cleat ly tie above, it shows that the price of steei , veloped upon them to -show ni." this . .;i. in I.iveniool is 2T, tier ton. and I terrible republican iniouity at Plaits- J .?

Peihaps the Journal man desires to kill off steel rail manufactu ring in America, and give England a monopoly of the business. If so, his free trade doctrine is, as fie demon strates, the very weapon to be used.

Before the memory of the late grand Jury is entirely obliterated, it woi.1-1 lie well for republicans to impreas up on the minds of their democratic friends that the surveyor general of Nebraska has been thoroughly investi gated, and that the refusal by a large majority of the members of the grand jury to indict is equivalent to an en dorsement of him as an honest repub lican oflice-holde,r. This vindicates republicanism no less than it does .Mr. George S. Smith, the surveyor general. It is about a year since the Omaha Herald which has from time to time for political reasons done as much slandering of good men as the next one began its howl against what is termed the ".Surveyor's Ring of Platts mouth." The people had by that jour nal been given to .understand that in connection with the office of surveyor general great and glaring frauds had been committed. When Mr. Morton started out on the stump, among oth er strange devices his banner bore the Herald's old inscription, "Down with the Surveyor's Ring of liattsinouth."

It is no boy's play to take the place of one of these ofheers during the state fair, and as each one of them have been tried and found efficient, seems to be no reason for a change.
