Richardson in the Baltimore Sun. The high protective tariff of Ger many calls forth remonstrance in business circles, and there is no doubt the sentiment opposed to it would be more powerful if the means for dis: closing popular feeling were more abundant. There is no each thing known here as popular discussions of public matters. Candidates for leg islative or other offices never think of addressing those, whose suffrages iney ann. iuuu irequeuuy vauuc dates do not announce themselves until a few days before the election, and if announcing any declaration of principles it is in glittering, general ities. The Reichstag and the news papers are the only arena for the ventilation of opinions on the Gov ernment policy, and as can be un derstood, the tendency in both is rather to respect the official than the popular sentiment'., Never theless, tbe Government at times gets some pretty hard raps from both. The German tariff works ex actly as the protective tariff under which the people of the United States groan. It puts money taken from tbe pockets of the great mass of the-f-eople into the coffers of a iew great monopolies. it is aone ostensibly under tbe same false and disreputable pretext, that it is for the benefit of the working classes. it 19 nintea that tbe real reason for tbe heavy tariff is .the necessity which thn Government feels of rais ing - all the money possible. The trading classes are convinced that it bears heavily upon them and those who deal with them. There is not much chance' for any abatement of the tariff, for although German Btatesmen and publicists will concede in private its burdens and inequali ties, it is held better for the Govern ment to derive its revenues, so far as it can, from indirect rather than by direct taxation. j "Tbere Are No States l T" 1 t . W ..!. UAUAUO till jr . The latent power of the Federal Government is slowly but sorely un folding and overshadowing manv cherished doctrines of so called States rights. The Supreme Court of the United States has finally given the last and decisive blow to the longcheri8hed doctrine of State In dependence. It has declared that Congress alone has the power to leg islate on inter-State matters relating to foreign governments. This doc trine of the absolute sovereignty of the general Government has never before been so powerfully proclaimed as in the decision referred to, pre pared by J ustice Bradley. "In mat ters of foreign and inter-State com merce," he declared, "there are no States!" . 4) The case in which this decision was made was that of a law enacted by Congress enabling a railroad company to construct a bridge across - the Arthur Kill river, between New Jersey and Staten Island, New York. In old times the construction of a bridge across a river which separa ted two States was supposed to re quire the authority of Congress and also the assent of both the States. New Jersey refused its assent to the construction of the Arthur Kill bridsre. and thi men tion grew out of that fact. The de cision, in its immediate effect, settles the doctrine that the United States can delegate to a corporation, as was done by act of Congress, ihe power -to build a bridge across a river con stituting the boundary line between two States; and however, that a State can not interfere with the erection by the United States of a bridge be tween different States. But far above and beyond this mere practical ques- nuuis me doctrine that "there are no States," when Congress is acting in its proper sphere and exercising its constitutional powers. The Su preme Court of the United jStates in her Federal capacity has finally and effectually repealed the Democratic resolutions of 1798. j Charleston News and Courier, Dem. f . There was no other significance there could be no other significance in the selection of Mr. Randall, of ali men, for the task assigned to him; and that he himself so understood his role is proved by every word that he 25SS! .V 6 iben!fit8 and Messings which the people of Georgia, now el inLTotClaimed by him " the re sults of the new sort of statesmanship which regards taxation as the basis of national prosperity. The present high tariff has been in the South has experienced its effects ever since the war ended. In that 8? ? iSiT f the necessaries of ingenious claim that the cost o such necessaries now is lower than in SSSo a signal instance of the benefit-f protection. The South has beXck in the Union since 1865, and has been in sore straits for the greater part of that time, although the high tariff was in full play. He finds, however, that there is now a marvellous pro gress in oertain industriesthanks to the same beneficent agency, j It was not claimed that prices are as low as (hey might be, but that they are lower than they were nearly thirty years ago. Nor was it claimed that they have been reduced in the United States only. This Mr. Ran dall knows is not the faot, since they have been lowered, at the same time, in countrks where protection plays' no part. It is as well, therefore to follow his investigation a little fur ther than Mr. Randall cared or found it convenient to go. We need not consider every instance he offered to show the benefits of the polioy he advocates. The weakness of his whole argument may be exposed by examining a few specimen' fallacies only The reduced cost of food and clothing, and the wonderful progress in railroad building in the South, were particularly insisted on. j The reduced cost of food need not be discussed at length. Food is pro duced on tbe farms, and one claim of the Protectionists, when it suits their purpose, is that the price of all farm products is enhanoed by the operation of the tariff." It is suffi cient, for the purpose of) answering one of their class, at least, to set the one claim over against the other. Nor was Mr. Randall more fortu nate In his reference to tbe reduoed cost of clothing. However low the. cost may be now, it would be very much lower -but for one obstacle, and that obsctacle is our high pro tective tariff. Last year the people of the United States imported foreign clothing to the value of not less than $100,000,000, upon which they paid taxes at the custom houses amount ing to $50,000,000. This, of course, was in addition to the enhanced cost of domestic clothing,1 upon which they are taxed indirectly, but none the less surely, to a far greater amount. It is small comfort to the people of any ' Southern State to know that they pay their full . share of this tax and get no; part of it in return. I And it was! wise of Mr. Randall not to go further into this branch I of hia subject. The tariff keeps up tbe price of clothing and everything else that the people of Georgia, and the booth generally, have to buy, and they cell their cot ton in a free market.) It is not sur prising that he touched no lightly on so delicate a point, j Bat what of railroad building? The Southern States i are among the foremost in this field of develop ment; bow does the tariff help or hinder tbem here? "We are told," says Mr. Randall, "that the railroad mileage of the South has been in creased 15,000 miles since 1879," or in the six years from 1880 to 1886, inclusive. Now, the increased cost of steel rails which is directly due to the operation of tbe tariff, amounts to about $12 a ton at the present prices. This means a tax of $1,500 a mile, at least, on every mile of railway that was built in the South in the period which Mr. Ran dall mentions, and was collected on the bare rails alone, without taking the rolling stock, &c, into the ac count. A very 6'imple calculation shows, then, that the amount of tax paid by the Sonth on this single arti cle, in six years, was $22,500,000. The i?bn and steel manufacturers of Pennsylvania got the benefiV of this vast sura, and their satisfaction and Mr. Randal!' can be easily under stood. It is not so easy to conceive why the people of Georgia and other Southern States should take any par ticular delight in the process by which, they are robbed, Or why they should desire it to be continued.

There were every where evi dencts of immaturity. Tbe streets in many places were torn up, and building opeia tions seemed almost every where in pro gress. The President's conductors pointed out these features with pride. "Wedo not boatt of the residences we have built," they said, "so much as of the business we have started, which is going to build our residences hereafter." Tbe ride was well managed, and was thoroughly an enjoyable affair. Only car riages enough to carry the visitors and escort the committee of eleven gentlemaa were proviaea . i ney were preceded ana followed by a email but sufficient troop of to valry. j Tbe marshal of the procession. Milton Moore, accompanied bv about twenty deputies, heaaed.lbe line The party set out from the hotel at 9.80 o'clock amid tbe cheers of the multitude, and made its way rapidly through the western portion of the town without stop p'ntr. until it reached the highest eminence in the city, From this point . the bluff fell away precipitously to the lower town, three hundred feet below. Immediately beneath stretched five or six square miles of railroad yards, and as the President's can iage made its appearance on the brow of tbe hill every locomotive of, all the fifteen railroads centering here ocened its throat and f creamed. Tbe concert was led by the rusty looking u onsters. whose tones. by some manipulation of the performing artists, were exactly like the howling of a family of coyottes, : only multiplied to ear- splitting dimensions. The President's at tention was called to the great area lying beyond the railroads covered by the mam moth packing houses and establishments for the sale of agricultural implements. A pause was made at Ihe .Exposition buildiogj but the President did not alight. From this point the party proceeded to the site of the projected new Young Men's Christian Association building, on " the northwest corner of Northwest and Locust streets, of which tbe President laid the cor-. ner s one. This Ceremony was preceded bv the s ngiog of hymns and brief addresses and prayer by Bishop Hendrix The President's remarks on the occasion were as follows: "la the busy activities of our daily life we are not to neglect the instrumentalities which are quietly, but effectually doing most important service in moulding our na tional character. Among these, and chal lenging but little notice compared with their valuable results, are the Young Men's Christian Association scattered throughout our couoiry. All will admit the supreme importance of that honesty and fixed prin ciple which rests upon Christian motives and purpose: and all will acknowledge the sad and increasing temptations which be set our young men and lure them to their destruction To save these young men. of ten times deprived of the restraints of home, from degradation and ruin, and to fit them I for usefulness and honor, these Associations have entered the field of Christian effort, and are pushing their do ble wotka. i When it is considered that tbe subjects of their efforts are t be c:ive man for good or evil in tbe next generatipa, mere worldly prudence dictates ibni tbe$e Associations should be aided and encouraged. Their increase and flourish ing condition rt fleet tbe highest honor up on the good men who have devotod them selves 1 this work, and demonstrate that the American people are not entirely lack tog to appreciation of its value.

Men's Christian Association located here khay be commensurate with its assured usefulness, and in keeping with tbe generosity and intelligence which cbaracteriz-3 the people of Kansas City." w one tae ceremonies were in progress a corps of pickpockets, which has followed the Pras-identia! party throughout its tour. indus-riously plied their art. One of these gentry ,j a florid, well built, though rather neavy man, was discovered by his victim in tbe set, just too late, however, to pre vent the robbery. Loud cries of "catch that mu, interrupted the impressive pro cetdings for a second. A man was sen to dash from the crowd, fall off a stone wall, knock over CDe or two women, 'and rush for freedom, with three or fourpolicemen after him. When tbe brief proceedings were ended the President and hia party went to their hotel where an hour was given to lunch. ; At about half-past 1 o'clock E. EL Al len. president of the Board of Trade and chairman of tbe Reception Committee, ex Congressman Van Horn, Congressman War ner, W. H. Miller, secretary pf the Board oi iraae, ana a committee or aoout a dozen ladies and gentlemen, called upon tne f resident and conducted him and Mrs uieverana to ineir carriage, iney were then escorted through the more thickly Duut business streets of the city, and brought out at tbe rear of tbe government building, where they arrived about 3 o clock. Alighting, they were escorted through the postofflce and out upon the front portico oi the building, where a stand and awmng had been erected. Fully 60, 000 people were congregated about this point, j roofs, windows, telegraph poles. ana radiating streets as far as they were visible being packed with humanity. When the band had finished the straios of "Hail to the Chief," Mr. Allen ad vanced to the rail and introduced to the President Mayor Henry C. Kump, who made the formal speech of welcome to the President j It was a model of brevity as iouows: "Mr. President: On behalf of the citi zens of this city it is my pleasant duty to oia you a nearty welcome to the metropo lis of the Missouri Valley We Are happy to receive and entertain ocr President. Although elected by one political party: yet when I elected : he is the President! of tbe whole; people. This vast assemblage of people have come here not only to show their respect for tbe president of al nation of over fifty millions of people, but for the man also. We will do all we can to ren der your visit pleasant, and hope that we will succeed in our laudable efforts I again bid yon a hearty welcome to tbe city of Kansas." ! The President spoke as follows in reply: "I had not long settled upon a visit to St. Louis, when I found that it would not do at all to go there without also seeing this wonderful city jon Missouri's western border. One of your enterprising citizens, anxious that I should not reach here in ig norance of your achievements, has sent me a newspaper exhibiting the progress of the city during tbe first six months of the pre sent year. Three months have passed since this record was made up, and he wrote me that be thought if I added fifty per cent, to the figures which it contained, it would strike the proper estimate of your condi tion to-day. While this shows the deepest faith and confidence in what you can do, I am inclined to think from something I have recently seen published, that the rule thus laid down is none too liberal, i The truth of the statement made in tbis news paper report is clinched by the compiler when he says at the beginning, "tbe fact is that it is almost impossible to lie about Kansas City." And when the splendid del egation of your business men called on me, and in the kindest and most cordial way invited me to be your guest, one of them was introduced as a dealer in real estate, who, it was declared, If I came here would sell me a city lot before I left. And this reminds me of a friend who made a trip to the Pacific Coast; as he came back he found his way to Kansas City.and while there bought a lot. He went Immediately ' home, and when he arrived there he found that his lolf had been sold for enough in ad vance of its cost to pay he expenses of h( f-ntim trio across tbe continent Of ,iir? tht-ie i- no limit to what a comma nit can do.

It is sufficient to state that it is apparent ia the activity of every branch of your diverse business, as well as in tbe vast public im provements completed and under way, and which are made necessary by your phe nomenal growth.

I never could appreciate any just cause for jealousy on tne part of tbe West .toward the East.

Hogs of shadowy proportions, armed with incredible snouts, glided between the trees. ana wiia turgeya were sometimes scared up. Seventy-five miles of this region is suDjtcted to overflow by the Mississippi. The first sign of approach to Memphis was the appearance on the train (no one knew how they got there), of handsome lithographs ot tbe President and Mrs. Cleveland, the allegorical bordering of which contained figures in the costumes of tne ancient Egyptian Memphis, with ren- resentations of the industries of her modern namesake. . later bouquets of flowers sur rounded by snowy cotton bolls made their appearance on Mrs. Cleveland's table. Memphis, Oct 15. The managers of the r leciueuiiai reception are quite chagrined over the little mishap of yesterday, and were in consultation long after midnight w im icKsru io tne proceedings OI to-day. This morning the committees were prompt ly on hand, but the late hours of last night caused a delay in starting the procession of carriages, and again upset the committee's arrangements, to narm was done beyond the curtailment of the opportunity offered mo xrresiueui to see me town. Memphis is not yet a beautiful city. It Dears too many ot the scars of war and pestilence, but it is a very busy one. The oia time anti-war architecture, showing small and rusty fronts, prevails largely. but in its main business thoroughfares structures oi substantial appearance are showing themselves, while the wbarves and warehouses show the seething, push ing energy of its business men, and give promise oi a prosperous iuture. The procession, headed bv a band and millitary, moved from the hotel at quarter town was full of interest. The decorations were probably more elaborate and more general than those of any place yet visited oy tne rresiaent, with tbe possible excep Uon uf Madison. Whatever gay colors could do to make the occasion a success haa been done. Twice along the line of march beautiful bouquets of flowers, in unique designs, were lowered into the President s carnage. Twice as many peo ple as ever were seen in the town were upop the streets, but good order was pre served by the mounted marshals. j The large, handsomely dressed stand in Court Square was reached by the President at about half naat 10 o'clock, and the formalities of the reception were begun. A formal speech of welcome was delivered by Judge H. T. Ellett. of the Chancery Court, a courtly gentleman of high local repute, who spoke both for Memphis and for the South. Judge Ellett extended, as reoresentativA of the whole people of Memphis, a hearty welcome, and. presented not symbolicallv only, but in tbe most substantial and practical form, the freedom of the city. "You have recently participated," be said, "in the celebration of the OnA nnnilMillli anniversary of the formation' of the donate tution of the ynited states, and you have beheld multitudes of our fellow country men flocking from every direction to the spot where that instrument was fashioned and renewing ihelr vows of fealty at the shrine of the grandest monument of human wisdom. Let me say, sir, that the South -era heast was in full sympathy with tbat interesting occasion: and that no Where all through ibis broad land, will you find more loyalty to the Constitution of tbe United States and to the government created by it, tban among tbe people of jibe Southern 8tates, Differences of opinion as to iu true theory and its proper con struction in some points existed from its very creation, and controversy has often been angry and bitter. One great and lm pottaot Interest in! the progress of things became KCtlonalized, and out of it the re quiiement of constitutional interpretation,' which was regarded by the Southern peo ple as Si vital to their rights and interests. i that they committed their solution to the arbitration of arms; but, Mr. President, they have bowed to the stern logic of events, until they have, in a fnnk and manly way, accepted the result of the struggle, a final settlement of .all ques i tions in dispute, and they have since labor ed with rare courage, fortitude and cheer fulness to accommodate themselves ' to their new condltions.fto teconstruct their broken fortunes, and to contribute as far as possible to the general prosperity and happiness of the whole country. As one practical result accomplished by the con flict, the theory of the right of a State to withdraw from the Federal compact was overthrown, and tbeindestiuctibillty of the American union was established on the firmest foundations. The chief element of discord has been removed forever, and though questions will- continue to arise about which men may differ, and differ earnestly, it is settled beyond appeal that for all abuses and grievances that may arise from the action of the general government, the remedy must hereafter be sought within the pale of the Union and under the forms of the established law. There is a distin guishing feature of this occasion which in vests it with peculiar interest. Heretofore Presidential progresses have usually been of a political character and have been with out the grace and charm afforded by female presence and influence. In these respects the present event is exceptional. We ali rejoice tbat you are accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland, and we are glad of the oppor tunity to lay at her feet our tribute, of homage and admiration. To her fellow countrywomen , her presence is especially gratifying. They are proud to have such a representative of their sex as the presiding spirit of the Executive Mansion, and at tbe head of the society at the Na tional capital, and to know that in the dis charge of all her duties, she is constantly winning golden opinions from all sorts of people. On behalf of the ladies of Mem phis. I beg you to present to her their cor dial and respectful salutations." The President replied as follows "The city of Memphis represents neither a new settlement,; nor a recent municipal creation. She has a long history, full of vicissitude and discouraging incident. Now the largest city in Tennessee, in its first growth was illustrated the universal push and activity of its people. I have come from sight-seeing in the wonderful West to be still surprised in the South. From mar vellous growth I have come to see not only marvellous growth but astonishing recu perations. Tbe active trade upon vour streets and in your exchanges tells only the tale of one of the largest cotton markets in the world, and of one of the .most prosper ous and flourishing cities of the South. Scarcely a trace is seen of the trials and discouragement through which it passed in gaming its present position, ana yet When it had, in 1862, by steady growth reached a population of thirty thousand, it was occu pied by a military force, and for four veers thereafter was held as a fortified camo. During Ibis time the People were scattered and its growth checked. When at the close of the war its citizens returned to their homes, they courageously set about repairing tbe damage of war and military occupation. Although within ten vears thereafter twice has this citv been afflict ed with yellow fever, yet through these visitations her people struggled on, determined to overcome them In 1 1878 when once more apparently on the hitrh road to permanent prosperity, this devoted city was again visited by iu dreadful scourge in a more malignant form than ever before. No one can wonder that in tne dreaded presence of this dire calamity no suutucg citizens uea ror their lives ui anovulation which, through all dis cursKtmer ts, hd reached forty thousand aoout twenty thousand remained, and of mese iun nve uousana aied of the terr - ble epidemic in two and a-half month In mis tomnre picture let us contemplate for in pioent i.ne bright spot,, lightened up by tbe sp ri s of brotherly love and illumiiia ted ov th kind'v Rvmnathw of i'nnnti ui'i'ui. x r rn an nana or the rAimi.v - i n ne-.r nod distant, from the North and from' in . aoum, came prompt and cheerful help suppling needs and alleviating distress! wui wuuiu peopie were touched by your Buucuug, iuu me nooiest ireits of our ua- uuamjwr were auicKenen nv vonr4 vaiauiuy. pr nen mo pestilence, exhausted oy us viruience. aoanaoned the city, 'its people returned to find their flourishinir uubiucbs tone ana tne value or tneir nrnn erty destroyed. !

This was said tn dispel tbe shadow of gloom that might omerwise ' nave . oeen cast upon tbe festivities had the true condition of the stricken man- been made known. The immense multitude who witnessed the in cident did not realize that death had come amongst them. They made a rush for the Exposition building, where a reception was being held, leaving to the few friends of the Judge the sad duty of carrying his re frains across 1 the street, from- where they were soon afterwards taken to his home on Pbelby street. , ' The Presidential reception to the public in the ' hall of the Cotton Exchange was About an hour in length. The President and Mrs, Cleveland were assisted by the iPostmastcr General and Mrs. Vilas. From the Exchange the party was escorted to their train at the foot of Court street, and ;at 1 o'clock left for Nashville. iJAHTLETT, TENS., Oct. 15. The Presi dential train is on time at Bartlett. The President is greatly shocked by the intelli gence of the death ot .Judge Ellett, whom he met for the first time yesterday. He oxpresses tbe warmest sympathy with the bereaved family. Dr. Bryant says he fouad no signs of life when he reached the unfortunate man's side, but said nothing until he was relieved a few minutes later by two local physicians To these he said the Judge was dead. hoieraMorlous olie iarroe ummer Complaints ,YSentery Att Cured 6r a. tgaspoonful af PerrsJ)aviWmJ(ier in a little Afilcor Sugar and Water: An.
