Wine growers in the South of "France are so glutted w th tbeir products that they offer wine at . one penuy per quart, but fail to ob ; tain that price. The splendid vin tage has made a wine drag in the market. Stir casks cost more than ' ' the winejneeded to fill them. Great Britain has apparently .'grabbed another slice of tbe earth. This time it is the group in tbe Pacific Ocean known as the Gilbert .. .Islsads. There are about 85,000 in. habitants on these islands, chiefly Protestant Christians. This is not a large acquisition, bat It illlastra tes striHngly the English greed for ; aew territory. '- The question as to which is the most fashionable language" has - apparently been definitely settled . by Professor Vambery, who re : cently lectured on tbe subject of (fashionable Languages" before 'the members of the Bada-Pesth . English Clnb, Eoglista,' he says Mmaynow be called the most fash - ,: lonable language in all parts of the -world." The Atlanta Constitution aptly describes Mr. Carlisle's position ; when it says: "According to Mr - Carlisle, a man who is rich enough to engage in a big business with oat the aid of partners should be exempted from an income tax, bat the men who combine their cap " ital ought to be taxed. Qaeer doc trine!"' 'At the late meeting of the Zoo logical Society of London a most remarkable instance of evolution in . the adaption of animal organisms Y to their environments was demon- atrated. Mr. legetmeier said that the English rabbits imported into Australia were gradually changing ' their habits and becoming tree -climbers, the available food for them there being iarely the bark and leaves of trees. Hew Orleans has tbe smallest ' police force of any great city in tbe ' country, in proportion to its popa lation and the area to be guarded, although it has the remarkable record of having made more ar rests than some forces double or treble its size. Withh a population "of 22,000. 3"ew Orleans has a poDoe force, of only 256 men, and -- List year there men made 22,008 : arrests. St. Louis, with a popula tion of 452,000, lias a police force of 800 men, which made bat 20,729 arrests daring the same period; ' while the Cincinnati police ferce of '489 men, with a population of 297,000 to operate upon, made bat 1694 arrests daring the year. AX ISCOE TAX. There are no questions ol public uolics mor rliffi "nlr ot anlarion there 'hoe iht rette to rever-j ne. The tariff i in thin cnun'rv. the iutject of t-ndlrSei and exaatles controversy. Conditions are con stantly changing, and thin necenni tates obnQkTt- of nchedalfs to cnee' auexuctt-d ex'geueen aud new developments. In our system of government the tariff is the chief iasrament for supplying revenue. It imposes oertain duties on for eign product entering the country through custom houses at ports of, ontr: hnt thee duties are not suffl cient to meet the demands of tbe situation, and other sources ot rev enue oust be found to supply the dlflcet. j A system of internal revenue has been in operation for many years, but ith nigh tariff duties upon foreign, products and an obnoxioas internal revenue system iu fall op eration, the expenses of the Gov eminent exceed its receipts. An additional source of revenue must be feand and the Ways and Means Committee are considering the incorporation of an Income tax in the Wilson Tariff Bill. We are told that tbe committee is so evenly divided that the decision rests with one man. Messrs Wilson Breckinridge, Cockran, Moutgom ery, and Stevens are disposed to follow M". Carlisle's recomenda tion. Five other members, Messrs McMillin. Tarnsey, Whiiing, Bryan and Bynum are staunch supporters of tbe proposition to tax individual incomes. This gives Mr. Turner bf Georgia, the deciding vote." ir we are ever so unfortunate as to havo no opinions of oar own, we know of no man better able to do oar thinking for ns than Henry Q. Turner of Georgia But jast now, we do not ere to await his decision. The tariff is already too high. To increase it would add to the burdens of a people oppressed be yond their powers of endnraBce. Tbe Internal Revenue system is an innovation npon American customs that is submitted to as n dernier ressort, and tbe addition of a feath. er's weight to its bnrdens would bd the infliction of a monstrous wron. Poverty and distress are all around us, and, while the shoul ders of the poor are bending under weights too grievoos to be borne, men clothed in purple and fine linen and fairing sumptuously every day, sport in the sunshine of pros perity unencumbered by care and contributing nothing to the support of the Government! Their money is in bonds, and orher non taxable property, and they care nothing for the wail of destress that goes up to heaven all ever this land. It is a monstrous wrong, and as long as it exhista Justice will sleep, and the People will suffer. THF OLD AXD THE JiEW. The yean 1893 was a most re markable one. There were storms and tempests, pestilence and earth quakes. On the 4th of March Qrover Cleveland waa a second time inaug urated President of the United States, with a majority unpreci dent and on a platform emphatio in its demands for "Reform in all Departments of the Govern ment. Scarcely bad he been comforta bly settled in the white House be fore calls for an Extra Session of Congress came np, from all sec tions, to the end that the reforms promised by the Dnmocratio party might be inaugurated at the ear lieso possible moment. Besides the demands resting apon the party by virtue of an election of Democrats on Democratic principles, a finan cial panic, that had its origen in the preceeding Republican admin istration, was playing havoc with tbe business of tbe country. The President hesitated to call the Congress together in extraor dinary session, but at last yielding to the irrepressible demand of tne people, Congress was called, and met in extra session on the 7th of September. The President's meesage al thonght a strong state paper, left doubt in tbe minds of many Dem ocrats as to the purpose to press reforms to the full limit ol tbe Chi cago platform. The election of Speaker Crisp was an omen of good, which was quickly followed by the appoint ment of a Ways and Means Com mittee of which Mr. Wilson is chairman. The Committee have re ported a bill, to be considered when the holiday recess is over. Thus the old year dossed on American political history. It will hardly be claim 3d that much was done for the relief of the of the people in 1893. It is to tbe new year that we are to look with hope and conn dence. No great general opens a battle before his lines are formed, his supplies on hand, and his artillery in position. Mr. Cleveland told the country that it was necessary to repeal the Sherman law lc order that a foun dation might be laid far a financial system that wonld give to the people an abundance of money every dol lar of which would be equal to gold in the commercial world. Mr. Voorhees h as introduced a bill, which is now before the Senate which if passed will go along ways towards the fulfillment of the prom ise. We will soon see how Mr. Cleveland stands in the Voorhees .

The Viion tariff full is no' a ; thai we had a righ' to expect ut a Druioeratle CoDjtes-, but it will ie aco-pted by the pirty and the people at large if it is speedily oattsed. Delay, al wa d an gel ous. would be ruiaous now. Tue pirty ha the requisite majority and it is - : madne.-s to hesitate. But not only mast Congress do something, but Mr. Clevela'ul must take off his hunting hoo . put on hi his Demo, rat e sIum s and staDd flt footed on tbe (.'liiea go platform. This year 1S94 ma-t witness the j redemption of Democratic pledges or the d irk raif? a ot Republic n-i-tm will come, and all be lost. 1893. THE OLD AM) THE N EVi ls!M In a late number of the Journal we indulged thoughts 0f the ner and the old from a po litical standpoint, and wf now turn to subjects non politic a! as eeen in the evening shadow of 1891 and the morning light ol 1891. Patrick Henry was uot- alone when he said "I have no lamp by which my leet are guided but the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future tut by the past." Led y the liht of reason and the lessoas of experieoce eveiy man should grow in wisdom, and each soccerliog year be bnter thin tb.r which has gone before it. The farmer ought to make his business more pleasant and remun erative this year than it last. If he has made an analysis of his soils either by the application of scientific tests, or the scarcely less reliable deductions of txperience be knows what elements are wan ting to bring into higher develop ment tbe crop that he intends to caltivate. If he has been a critical ami intelligent observer, he knows what crops are best adapted to his lands and ha will not continue to plant cotton in fields better suited to corn, wheator tobacco. Tbe Stockman, who wonld make bimsell independent of the breed ers of the North and the West ought to know better than he did a year go what breeds thrive be.-t in his latitude and are best suited for the woik they are inten ded to perform; arid he who has no arabiticn to become the raiser of floe stock ought to know better than be once did where he can best purchase the stock that he intends to use in his daily vocation. Every industrial pursuit ought to ba made better and moie profit able than it was last year. This truth applies to everything newspapers included. How are we to improve the newspaper business! We know that tbe general answer is. ''By making them better." This is very true. But how are they to b triii; bet ter! We venture the assertion that in ninety-nine c k?es in a hncdred the newspaper is jn-t aa good as its patronage will permjt. Every pro prietor likes to publish a neat, re liable and newsy paper. He aboDi nates everything that mars its ap pearance, and tbe omisiou of an item of uews annoys him more than it possibly cm any of his rea ders. For a newspaper to meet the pur poses for which it is intended it must have cash (iood will is a blessed thing, and every honorable man is thankful for the goodwill of his neighbor, but it wort run a newspaper. Then wa lay it down as an indis putable proposition that a news paper must have money. Payment in advance is an essential prere quisite to a good newspaper. Oae delinquent subscriber amounts to nothing very serious, but when a large number of the subscribers are in arrears the paper loes hall its power. 8)tne men will find fault with their paper, and faults there will be, but if every faultfinder will forward the amount he ewes, his paper will, improve, his con science will be easy and his ?oaI will be happy. Nor is this. all. Experience shows that po business man employs aDy part of his means so well as that which is invested in wise, liber al and judicious advertisement. The world know that go which are not worth adrertio eg are not worth having. There is a mama! dependence he tween newspapers aud the busi ness public. The prosperity of one involves the prosperity of the oth er.

' " 'ii lias l.e.-.'iiie the heir i.,,i,ii-i l-.eritag-o 1'oth material. Every new d u stride forward of '.','. i,f culture and pro3 le inm-e than a century ' ago, the patriots of our land looked forward to the l.e-v year with doubt j and almost de-pair. Foes were on i every side, ready to invade and dese I crate the hom,- of freedom, which was then comprised in a narrow strip of jthlnly Fettled country on the shores of jpur eastern ocean. To-day the temple : of liberty is arched by skies stretching from ocean to ocean, and it Is filled .with the fairest tr, iphies of man's en I deavor. Art, science, literature and :relig-ion have been revivified by th breath of the republic, which, like the iHercules of the fable, has strangled khc Hon of tyranny, has performed th (labors deemed imp, .-sihle, and reijfn (the ideal of government In every land, vital force in the world, a center of ijmpulse and aspiration. A runner inust pause to take breath, a 'bird's flig-ht cannot be straight upward or its wing-s will weary, and now and og-ain fate lays her hand upon nations that they may pause to view whence they have come, and whither they go. The year just past has witnessed such la halt in our own career of material prosperity. Thoug-h financial distress was widespread, and the wheels ot commerce almost idle, though the palsy pt inaction seized upon our legislators, even this pause In the race has madt its contribution to our national great ness. The people of our country have seen with swelling hearts the patriot ism of the leaders of the masses rising above all political and personal mo tives and the noblo charity of the fa vored of fortune to the poor and un fortunate has quickened tbe fraternal Bpirit and softened class prejurtloe. Public and private beneficence ha reached a height never before wit nessed in any country, and the narrovr lines of intolerance hnvo been erased or dimmed by the chastening touch of adversity. As individuals, the New Year open to us boundless opportunities. If it bring sorrow, is not woo the fire thati to burn the dross from our bouIs? If It bring poverty, let us remember that there is an infinite side to it, and the poor have before them a world of hope and endeavor that is closed to those who must make no strnggle against op posing forces. Riches may be its boon, but riches are precious only for their power of conferring happiness and en lightenment upon the world. Death may be its cup of healing, yet there i no death but the cessation of endeavor; and leaving this fair earth is no more death than merely living upon it is life. False was the song of tho poet who said that the New, Year is a "Time for memory and for tears." For memory it Is Indeed a time, for the gleaned sheaves of the sweetness of past day is an imperishable possession, but tears, even though their waters Surg over the fragments of shattered resolve and self-murdered hope, are vain and idle. Then let us give Time a benedic tion as he turns his glass, for he ha taingled the bitter in our draught of life with sweet, and as the blithe New Year assumes the robe and crown shout with earnest hearts: "Le ro! est mort, vlve le roi.''

And found the wide world peopled with our like, And relics met of many generations That lived bifoie us, and had pass'd away. We stood, we saw, in the dread "centre Of immensities, the coupling of eternities;' The bygone ami the future; stretching back, Interminably, there was the elapsed. And onward, there, he eternity to come What vast and awful secrets, there, lii hid, We nothing knew; but hoped to know, an.l shall.

Oh! linmortulity's a fearful gift, To those whose pristine innocence i; gone, And the soul,s harmony; to that, no more tsymphonious, with all angelic choirs, It yields, as erst, sweet music to the p raise Of Him, the good and ever blest Sup reme, Who, to thiir Maker and themselves, un true, Struck with infernal madness, have them thrown From Virtue's eminence, and spoil'd themselves Of purity and peace, and liberty. And sold themselves to be the slaves of sin. Sin worketh deLth, but not c-i'.ir.ct'on. It Will gnaw and agonize, but not destroy; Will burn, but not consume; will prey upon The vitals of the soul, age alter age, And yet the soul shall live; be strong to endure Eternal agonies, as at the first. Oh! had not God, iu love, sent down His Son, To rescue and restore, no tongue can tell fiow dire that doom which gailty man awaits: That he's with immortality endued, Would be his worst misfortune, (God be p ais'd;) The swiet. the heaven sent tidings of good will To men, and peace, have long sin. e reach'd our ears, And here begot, in on'- ! s; . r'nj hearts Sure aud HUthclitn" hope- ..i l. is- ,n 1 Heaven.
