All of the large paper manufacturer? of England hare formed a syndicate to raise prices. Such a meve in this conn try would be attributed by the demo cratic organs to the piotective tariff sys tem. In England free trade is evidently the eyil behind the throne. Too py your money and take .your choice, but trusts and syndicates continue to rise and fall just the same. Kearney Hub.

It is entirely in keeping with the fitness of things for a thorough busi nes man to lose no time in introducing practical businesi methods in the brmrh of the government over which he presides It is understood that President Har rison will appoint a colored man to b register of deeds fr the District of CM nmbia, a position wort!i ttu to (Uteri thousand dollars a yc ir, and he will se lect a resident of the District, in conformity with the policy o filling the territorial offices with citi zeus ot the territories Mr. Cleveland disregarded this pjlicy. although th platform on which he was elected pledged him to it. He first appointor Matthews, an Albiny colored man. t the position of register, and when the unate refused to confirm him, went .to ioston for the present incumbent, Mr. 'rotter. The office has been filled by a : ilored man since the appointment of Yetl Douglas by Grant. Flying Uxdkr Water, One of the .tost water-loving birds is a dainty little longster belonging to the thrush family, tnd popularly known as the water-ousel, r dipper, lnis pretty little bird is found in most parts of the world, and likes best the neighborhood of those nerry meuntain streams which rush oisterously on to their fate, now leap ing headlong over some high rock, now twirling in some deep pool, and now ed- tying, dancing, plashing dowu a steep incline. Water-fall, pool, and eddying stream- are alike to the water-ousel, vhich will dash into one or the other ith the same ready confidence as the irdinary bird into the air. In winter, when, its watery home is frozen oyer, it will seek other and mild er parts, unless it can be sure of finding aoles in the ice, in which case it will not tesitate to remain at home, far it will plunge through a hole into the icy water ith no care at all for temperature, and laving made its venture successful by the capture of a small fish, will return to the air ence more. So fond is it of the water that it will build its nest as near to it as possible, tnd one instance is rocordtd of a pair .vhich actually built behind a water-fall, taking advantage of the space made by the shoot of the water over the top of the rock. Although the ousol uses its feet while swimming, its progress is chiefly due to ts wings, which are moved exactly as if lying in the air. . The wings are admir- ibly adapted to this use, being almost as broad as Ion":, and of comparatively rent power. The tail is very short, and the JjoIt i covered with soft thick town, which, as in the true aquatic birds tffords an impervious shield agitinst the water. Like all other birds which either c.ism- l!y or habitually resort to the water, tlu ousel seems to regard tint element as its safest retreat in 'time of daiiger. Eft n the little birds which h.ive n-jver befor ventured from the nest, and which are quite uaaMe to rly, have le;n known, when alarmed during the absence of the parents, to rush pell-mell to the nearest water, and with extraordinary facility to run along the bed of the stream manr yards before seeking the air. Allowing everytiug to the over-powering force of n-tiurt. there still remains something t wonder at in the which can inspire the fledglings to take so anxiously to tue water. joun it. Coryell, in Harper's Magazine for April. Ths Power of Ink. "A small drop of ink, falling, like dew. upon a thought, proclaims that which makes thousauds, perhaps millions, think" wrote Byron. The inspiration ot his pm might give the dusky tluic such a far reaching power, and we wish we were possessed of such an inspiration, that we might, through a like medium, bring in to such extended notice the matchless virtues of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, those tiny, sugar-coated granules which contain, in a concentrated form, the active principles of vegetacle extracts that Dame Nature designed especially t promote a healthy action of the liver, stomach and bowels.
