The New York -SeroW of Friday contains an interesting cable letter from its Berlin correspondent on the industrial depression in Germa ny and its causes, upon which the Herald makes the following editorial comment, which we clip because it presents an object lesson and a warn ing. It says: "It is a gloomy picture, the one our Berlin correspondent draws this morn ing. "Eighteen months ago, as he re marks, trade of all kinds in Germany was flourishing: the Berlin Boerse presented a scene of almost unparal leled animation; banks were compelled to enlarge their premises in order to handle the enormous increase of busi ness, while wages were high and work was plentiful. "To-day the pendulum has swung to the opposite extreme. Trade has come to virtual standstill, the Boerse is life less, the banking business is stagnant, shipping has dwindled in volume, and it is said that in Berlin alone there are thirty-five thousand men out of em ployment. "According to the opinions col lected by the Herald's correspondent, overspeculatlon, particularly in elec tric shares, has been the main factor in bringing about this 'slump.' Such a view, however, is obviously but su perficial. The causes undoubtedly lie much deeper than in even wildest 'plunging in any form of stocks. "The plain fact is, Germany forged ahead too fast 8he tried to run while still in her walking age and is now paying the penalty. "Under the prudent far seeing guidance of Prince Bismarck the work of solidifying the bases of the newlr federated empire after the war of 1870 was pursued slowly and methodically. Home industries were built up, the carrying trades were developed, for eign outlets for German products were sought and acquired, and the people were led from triumph to triumph. "Then the master architect was dis missed before his undertaking was achieved, and a spirit of reckless over confidence dominated where one of wisdom and judicious fore-thought had ruled in the early period of the empire's existence. "A crash was inevitable, and it has come in the form of an acute agrrcul cuml, industrial and economic crisis. to deal with which even all Bismarck's statesmanship and resourcefulness would not have been too much. The check to Germany's progress, in fact, is derived not from frantic "plunging" in this, that or the other species of se curity, but from mistaken views on the subject of a "Welt Politik" while far more pressing questions are being neglected at home. In familiar but vividly graphic American phrase, Germany' presiding genius 'has bitten off more than he can chew,' and his people are now feeling the effects." "Forged ahead too fast," Got the craze to become rich at a jump, went it blind and landed in trm ditch, out of which it may take them a good while to scramble. There are to-day in Germany twice as many idle workmen, men who to feed themselves and their families depend upon their daily earnings for their daily bread, as there were twelve months ago. Thirty-five thousand workmen are idle in Ber lin, and Berlin is but one of . the cities in which thousands are idle, and at a time of the year, too, when the idle and the poor suffer most. ix ow ior tne object lesson. To promote manufacturing enterprises the policy of protection was adopted and the stimulated manufactures grew. They sprang up in a day as it were, for twenty years ago Germany cut a very small figure as a manu facturing nation. With a sagacity that does the Germans credit they reasoned that when they had entered foreign markets with their goods to compete with other manufacturing nations they must, to win success in those markets and hold them, make a class of goods that would, by their merits, attract purchasers, and, therefore, they wisely began, and followed up the estab lishment of technical schools to train labor to the skill requisite to make superior goods and to make them econom'cially, They succeed ed in that until Germany became noted for its skilled labor, that turned out goods that took a front ran m au ine markets, and the label "made in Germany" became a favorable recommendation every where. Germany was becoming commercially a world power, was becoming rich, and might have con- wuutju to grow richer if folly had whioh now spreads its dark pall oyer Germany to wild and reckless specu lation in stocks, which amounted to a veritable craze, especially copper and electric stocks from which, to to express it, Germany got some ter rible electric shocks but the manu factories might have weathered through this if the insatiable trusts hadn't squeezed them so hard in their day of trial and need. Isn't there an objeot lesson and a warning in all this for the American manufacturers who are now striving so hard for world markets, and for the statesmen who have the shaping of our public policies? German statesmen adopted the protective tariff policy to stimulate manufac tures. It did it, stimulated too much until the result was over-production for the home market, mak ing foreign markets a necessity and making it necessary for Ger mans to compete against 'Germans, not only in the home but in the for eign markets. It is said that com pelled by necessity to meet obliga tions, they sold goods in foreign markets for less money than they sold them at home, as some of our protected manufacturers are doing, and sometimes at less than cost, as someof our protected manufacturers say they sometimes do to meet for eign competition and work off their surplus. This is the reason they give to account for charging foreign purchasers less than they charge the home purchaser. RESOLUTIONS IHT THE CAUCUS. There were fire resolutions bear ing upon national policies offered in the Democratic caucus of the mem bers of the House of Representa tives which met in Washington Sat urday." The first was on the tariff, protesting against the Republican policy of high, and in some instances practically prohibitive duties, as both unnecessary and oppressive on the people in the interests of the few, and pledging the members to sup port measures to reduce the tariff on articles which are sold at a lower price abroad than at home, and also to favor reciprocity treaties which will reduce, if they do not alto gether remove, the oppressive bur dens on the people. . The second favors just and gen erous treatment of the inhabitants of Cuba and of Porto Rico, the complete fulfilment of our pledges to them and the largest practical liberty of commercial intercourse with us. The third opposes subsidies in any shape by which the people will be taxed to build and run ships for the benefit of private individuals. The fourth protests against the establishment of a colonial system in the Philippines and demands that when those people are fitted for self government they be granted all the rights and privileges of self rule granted to the peopleof any of our other territories. This resolution caused a racket. SPIRITS " f URPENTIftF. Our high tariff, prohibitory pro- I but why it should is not apparent, as tection stimulated manufactures. until the home market became over stocked and foreign markets became a necessity, and now even with the foreign markets that have been se cured and those that are in prospect, they clamor for continued protec tion against the manufacturers who are suffering from similar projection to protect them from disaster and ruin after they have become strong enough to hold their own against the world. Less protection, less forcing of the plant would have been better for Germany in the end, and less protection, less coddling of our "in fant industries would have been better for them and for this coun try in the end. The cause has pro duced its effect in Germany, and the same cause will produce a simi lar effect in this country, unless we be warned by Germany's sad plight undo some of the mischief we have done, stop to think, go slow and not try to achieve in a day what could be better and more lastingly done in many days. Germany aspir ed to become a world-power com mercially and politically, just as we it is in line with Democratic princi ples and with Democratic utterances all along, ever since the Philippine question became a question, and is substantially what the Republicans themselves declare that they intend to do. This resolution is so broad, so elastic and so non-committal as to time that we don't see where there was any ground to quarrel over it. . The fifth was a declaration in favor of the single gold standard and a protest against any further agita tion of the silver question,its author, Mr. Fitagerald, of New York, assert ing that this question had been set tled by the people in two elections, when they declared for the gold standard. This is not strictly true, because there were other issues in both of these elections, and in the latter the silver question figured but little. And we know, too, that mil lions of dollars were expended in both of those elections by the Re publican machine managers. But if it were true, Mr. Fitzgerald was in consistent in the reason assigned for dropping that question and endors ing the gold standard.

R. Raynor. She leaves four children. Attention has been called to the fact that during the past year a num ber of the finest old shade trees in the city have died. In some places whole rows of old elms have died, one after another, supposed to be from the effect of some boring insect or bug that has entered them. Nor have the elms alone suffered, among others the large old sycamore at the Cool Spring, near the old "Flora MacDonald Oak," is dead. Duplin Journal: The recent heavy frosts are said by many farmers to have cut the top crop of cotton con siderably short. There can be seen from one to six bolls on every stalk which will never open. The farmers are busy sowing small grain, which is the beat thing to do. The corn orop is very short this year and the rye and winter oats will aid them wonderfully next year and improve tbeir land also. Some of the best farmers in Duplin are going into the tobacco business another year. They have a perfect right to be come sick and tired of cotton growing. Certainly it has ruined many of them. a. tree was cut and hauled to the McMulIen mill which contained 5,800 feet of lumber. The tree grew on the land of Mr. Owen Darden in Piney Grove township. A comfortable house could be built from its lumber. Strawberries are in a flourishing condition, and it is generally believed that the coming crop will be a full one. The plants have had nice sea sons and have grown all along. A good many 'growers have already fertil ized their berries which gives them an advanced growth and puts them ready for blooming in the early Spring. NEW WINDOW SASH.

Horizontal grooves bisect the two vertical grooves, and by. these ; horizontal grooves pins project ing from the lower sash are guided. By reason of this arrangement of grooves the lower sash can be moved in the branch groove directly in align ment with the upper sash, thereby cloa ing the window far more tightly than Is possible with the ordinary sashes. Bnt if the lower sash be moved down to the end of Its vertical groove a hori zontal space is left between the upper and lower sashes for ventilating pur poses. If this space be not large enough, the sashes can be raised and lowered In the usual manner. In the lower end of each groove of the upper sash a pin Is located, which is received in the curved recess of a plate carried on the lower end of the lower sash. Thus the lower sash, when depressed, is pivotally mounted, so that It can be swung Inwardly In the man ner shown In our engraving through an arc of ninety degrees. When the sash Is thus swung Inwardly, the win dow can be safely cleaned. STSf-rS."" .

The cotton market opened steady with prices' un changed to two points higher and for the rest of the day followed an -unusually narrow course with the room trade given over almost entirely - to straightening up straggling accounts preparatory to the receipt of the Bureau report to-morrow. Commis sion houses sold a little of their long cotton on an advance of two to four points which occurred later in the morn ing. Earlier cables were a trifle steadier than expected, but after our opening Liverpool followed every change of two points here and gave over the leadership to the local trade. The weather South was generally fair and cold, except in the central section, where light to hard rains have fallen ; trade reports were of bullish average, notably 'those from Manchester and the South. Southern spot markets were steady to firm at full former prices on active export and increased domestic demand. Clearances for export far exceed the total port receipts, thus causing a sharp decrease in total port sleeks The estimates for to-morrow's receipts at New Orleans and Houston were larger than expected, but this fact railed in any way to affect the after coon market which ruled very, steady at near top prices for the day. Wall street and the South were buyers all the last hour and smaller shorts ab sorbed the offerings of profit seekers. The close was quiet and steady with prices two points lower on September, but two to four points higher on other options. Nbw York, Dec. 2.
