The Minister of Finance mado a rethark tn which Bismarck, ifhe had sense enough, could easily sea a threat of something worse for Germany than wor, He sald that for business to prosper two thinga were necesgary—Iiberty and pence. Lyon Say extiorted the young men to study business and- money questions uot alone for personal . aggrandizement; but for the enrichment .of' France, ‘To show how queer the French are It only needs to add: that this eaueational institution was fitted ‘up with billiards, cheas-rooms, fenclng-rooms, and other meus of recreation suitable for young men. THere are a grant many of these special schools In Europe.

Assuming to do vorrect the list of members whom Speaker Keffer Is said to have selected for the Committee 6n Ways and Means In the National House of Representatives, tho constitution of that committe ts the must remarkable event not orily of the present Congress, but of all Congressional affairs during tho past twenty years, . = Tho-Ways and Means Committee of tho House fs considered the moat important and {nfluentint one of that body, ‘The Constitue ton requires thnt all revenue monsutes shall originate In tho Mouse of Representatives, and this committes has almost absolute con- trol and direction’ of the methods that shall be pursued for raising the Government rey- enues, OF course it cannot pass mensures of Its own motion, but It ptactlently exercises the power under the rules.of excluding from favorableconslterntion any tieastires Which It does not approve, and ling great advantages in urging the adoption of such measures ast may sce tit to report. This comiittes so far outranks nll the others In Congress thats mere ‘membership’ thereof is regnrded ng more desirable than a Chairmanship of any other connnittee, Such pretminence {s the natural result of tho extraordinary powers conferred on the Waysand Means Cummittee by the rules and practices of the House. In view of theso*well-known conditions and the ponding sgitation concerning the’ necessary revision of the customs tariff and the proposed abolition of the Internal rev- enue system, the sectional complexion of the committee whieh Speaker Kelfer ts alleged to haye selected is so prohounced that it ux- cltey suspicion of n deliberate purpose, trot merely to refuse tha country tiny relief from. the extortlons and discriminations of the tar- Hf, but actually to reduce the revenues from Internal taxation to an oxtent that will enable an increase of the tariff exactions, This the- ory will appear plansibie froin an enumern- tlon of some of the striking characteristics of the committed.

All, over En- Blond are families whose solo or chief means of Ilying are obtained under these ne-- slanments of rents on the Irleh tenants, Old malds support thomselves, and widows and daughters also, out of these rack-rents, Tho Jaw giving the title to the estate to the oldest son, his‘ brothers and .alsters have annual suis nade n legal charge on the rents of the Jond. tor their aupport, At the same time, {ike provision las come down from previous yoars for the support of aunts, nieces, an othor relatives, ees ‘Tho great bulk of the Irish estates owned by Englishmen are thus covered by these charges, which are all to be, pald from the rents that can be tortured ont of the tennuta, When crops fail and the rout is not paid the income of all these cousins and aunts, uncles, staters, and brothers is dificult of collection, and then come evictiona, and -famiue,: and death to the unfortunate tenants. é During the last furty years the demand to satisfy thege incumbranee-llens on the rent hos been Ineréasing, and to Keep pace with the Income needed the rents -haye been con. stantly and romurselesly incrensed.

What the estate falls short lu a bad-crop year must bo made good in the next year, . : As might be expected, this increase of the lond charges and the enhancement of tha rent eventually reached: thelr climax, The bad crops of 1878 and 1870 and the partiny funine of 1880 exhausted the menns of the tenants to pay rent, and led to @ great cul- lapse of the income from that source, The attempt to throw the famlne-stricken tenauts from the farms and.to rent the Innds. at higher rates In order to compensate for the Jost rents produced such a universal protest from ai! civilized natlons that the British people, following ‘Mr. Gladstone, were com: pelled to Habre? the land system. of Jreland and adinit the tenants to recognition under tho common riglity of humoulty, ‘The Land bill passed, and Its machinery has beun putin mocion, but the distress which has vis- Ited Ireland frum the past Is now at Its full, During tho last three‘yeara ‘the crops have been failures, and tha tenants now owe to thelr landlords an average of from one to ‘two years and ‘a half rent.
