Oa Febrasry 26th an address was presented to Hon. Benjamin H. Bar- rowe, consul at Dublin for the United States. The address was presented by Mr. Bennet Little. We condense the following from The Dublin Free- man’s Journal of February 28th: Mr. Benaet Littlo presented the address, which was beaatifally illami- nated. He remarked that they were aware it had been intended to present Mr. Barrows with the address at a complimentary dinner, but that in- tention was abandoned in consequence of the ead death of Dr. Edward Peele, the dear friend of Mr. Barrows, anda gentleman loved and respected by them all. He could not fail to be gratified st receiving the addrees when 5e found appended to it the names of men distinguished by high position, professional eminence end greab learning, to whom he became known in the social circle, and also the names of men of mark in_the commercial world with whou his official position had brought him in contact. Iu facthe would find there all sorts and conditions of men, fzom an archbishop down to bimaelf (Mr. Little). Their appreciation of his many and varied qualities was practically evinced by the presenta- tion of that address, and for himself (Mr. Little) he begged to thank Mr. Barrows for having opened to him new habits of thought, and for having largely added to his knowledge of the American poet and ths American bumorist (applause). He then placed before Mr. Barrows the ad- dress, which stated:=— DER StR—Your Irish friends and ac- tances desire to express their high opiion of your efficiencyjas consul for the TUnited States in Dublin. You have been amongst ns for some years, and the mark- ed zeal, with which your consular duties have been discharged has been enhanced by the useful function, which you have so successfully undertaken, of introducing many of the Irish public to spheres of American thought and genius hitherto al most unknown on this sids of the Atlanti By your lectures, you have created in D! lin a really intelligent interest in the liter- ature of the United States, while you have always been a ready and clear source of light to those in search of information about America. - We could fain hope that Your useful and brillisnt career i this city may remain uninterrupted so long as its continuance is compatible with your inter- ests and aspirations. The address was signed by 143 gen- tlemen, amongst tie_sigaatures being the Right Hop. Mr. Justice Barry, the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor and the most prominent members of the clty government. The Hon. M. Barrows, replying, ssid: Gentlemen, I scarcely know in what fashion to return my thanks for this address and for the encomiums you have so generously bestowed upon me. You have been pleased to men- tion my consular duties in Dablin. Let me not be understood s overrat- ing or underrating the value of that service. That duty is to promote American commercial interests abroad and to develop kindly good will and kindly relations between our govern- ment and the country to which the consul is accredited. Gentlemen, I have done what I could, in a business point of view for commerce. The cal- tivation of hearty good will between the Irish pecple and America needs no expositor in Ireland, knit together as we ara by a thousand ties and sympa- thies. O the sozial side of my life here I find 15 difficult to spesk in terms sufficlently warm. The welcome you gavemo five yoars ago has abided in me ever fresh and enduring, ard I count my life richer for the friends whese courtesy has never withered during my stay smong you. Do not think that I forget the occasion or its surroundings, when I say that I am not able to reply as I should by reason of the ‘recent personal s which has fallen so heavily upon us sll (hear, hear). The cheering presence of ono whom we loved asa brother, snd who should have been -with-us to- Qny, has vanished from us fOrover; and something of our regret for him must tinge our meeting. A bright light of honor and also of steadfast- mess went out among us when he died; and because he was your dear friend and mine you;will bear with mejwhile I bear testimony to the worth of a sin- cere gentleman. 1n conclusion he eaid that so long as it should please his government to retain him in the post of consul he should rejoice to live smong them (spplause(. — PERSONALITIES, Mr. Howells will not go abroad as minister to Switzerland, He secks.n fairer climb, Commodore Nutt, the well known dwarf, now keeps a low-down saloon in New York.

Denver proposes to estsblish lead pipe and. white lead works, using the native galena for materia. The use of gas as fucl enables the manufactures of steel and gliss in Pittsburg to producs those articles far more cheaply than formerly. Several large factories, and no end of enlargements and improvements, are to be erected and made in Berlin, Ont., the coming season. The Grand Trunk shops at Strat- ford, Ont., aro full of work. The em- ployes have lately had their wages in- creased, and have been forced to work night and day. The Lehigh Car, Wheel and Axle works, Fallerton, havesecared contracts to build 1000 coal cars for the Lehigh Valley raiirosd, 300 gondolas for the New York, Pernsylvania and Ohio sompany, and 200 box cars for the Qommereial Express company. A spar rim; twenty-eight fest in diameter, the largest cruciblo steel- casting ever made, was recently cast at Sheffield, England. To cast it two hundred and seventy pots, each hold- ing eighty pounds of molten steel, were used. Steels whesls are likely to supersede the cast-iron wheels now in general use ia Lancashire mills. The Saginaw Barrel company, of Saginaw, Mich., employs 180 men, and has a saw mill with an annual cap- acity of 5,000,000 fect. Pine, ash, maple, oak, ctc., are worked through this mill. This company also pro- duces barrel heads, wooden measures, axle-grease boxes, sievo rime, wash- boards, elm patent hosps for sugar barrels. The machinery of th IronClad Man- ufactaring company, for tho manufac- ture of metallic shirgles, which was until recently located at Scotdale, Westmoreland county, is now on its way to England, and will be located in one of the cities there. The chief pur- poseof its removal from this country is the working up of foreign trade. The North Chicago Rolling Mills in 1880 turned out 100,187.88 tons of ingots and 84,845.58 steel ratls. The Lackawanna Iron and_Steel Company at Scranton, produced 100,554 gross tona of ingots during the year, 84,600 of ralls and 228 grosz tons of mer- chant steel. The Joliet Steel Com- pany produced 416,000 tons of ingots and 97,000 tocs of rails. The Edgar Thompson Works produced 123,303 tons of ingots, 100,994 tons of rails and 1263 tons of merchant steel. A novelty in mechanics is a wood splitting machine which E. W. Peck has in use near Cambridge, Vt. It acts exactly upon the galllotine prin- ciple. An enormous axe, welghing with_its fixtures 200 pounds, runs up and down between two uprights, and is controlled by a psir of levers. As the zection of a log drops from the buzz saw it rolls down an incline thesplitter. Here o workman places it under the axe, which, descending, splits it with slmost incredible easo and dispatch.

The Fontaine engine differs from the stundard engine in having the power applied by a eingle rcd on ench side ranning from a cylinder to » large drive wheel immediately above the front driver on the ordinary loco- motive. The upper drive wheel is of the same diameter as the lower, bat it bears upon a flanga several inches emaller than the lower driver, and thus brings into play the principle of large and small pulleys in the driving of ordinary machinery, The Fontaine locomotive has also no dead centres, for the lower driver acts ss a huge bal- anco wheel, carrying the upper wheel past the point where power is lost. —_— RAILROAD DISCRIMINATION. HOW ARIZONA IS ROBBED BY THE PACK- PIC RAILROADS, ‘Tacson (A, T.) Journ . We had occaslon in a recent ssue to call sttention to the encroachmens of the raflroads on the public and their incressiog tendency to avarics. W then showed that entire sections, with great natural resources, were in danger of bankraptoy from the rapacity of theso corporations. We also suggest- od the advisability of a railroad com- mission for the territory on general principles, bat the session of the leg- islature was apparently drawing to & close, and little was said to direct at- tentlon to particular cases or apply the lessons there attempted to be taught to cur community. There are feat- ures, however, about the management of railroads which call for prompt ac- tlon by our legislators. Judgo Black, in his now famous letter, ampliSes the rule that there ahall be no discrimina- tion in charges, and that the common. wealth has absolute control of the sub- ject. e will cite » few instances to show a discrimination as mean as it is un- just and hurtful to cur merchants: Osnned goods are laid down in Sac- ramento from the east, a distance of about 3,000 miles, st s frelght charge of 81 per hundred pounds; but from Sacramento to Tacson, a distance of 978 miles, or in round numbers 1,000 miles, an additional charge of §2.15 is made—that is, more than double the amount s charged for transporting these goods not one-third of the dis- tance. From New York to San Franclsco the freight on sugar is 13 cents per pound. The regular rate from Sacra- mento to Tacson, one-third of the dis. tance, is 2} cents, Cartridges from New York to Tacscn are charged at the rate of £5.65 per hundred pounds, and from San Fran- cisco to this point the freight charges for the same quantity of goods is 5. The freight on nafls from Pittsburgh to Sacramento is 90 cents per hundred weight, and from Sscramesto to Tae- son it is §2.15. Wool from New York to Sacramento 1s $4 per hundred weight, and from Sacramento to Tacson $2.65. From San Francisco to Tucson it is £6.50, or 15 cents less than from New York to Tucson. These are a few items culled from the schedule of frelghts furnished by the railroads. In addition to this Ebl:nnghlinmlhee and to ‘f]urther show arbitrary manner which the rallroads, we might say, almost fleece their customers, thero {s hardlya mer- chant in Tucson, that receives frelght, who is not continually compellsd by & forced loan (and we use the word forced advisedly) to advance to the railroad, upon almost every consign- ment, from 5 to 20 percent above their pretended rats in the shape of over- charges. Thus the merchants of Tac- the ! son (and probably the case ln other | localities) have loaned to the railroad company at least 85000, or more, to be returned to'them at the end of 60 or 90 daye, and sometimes not before six months without interest, ad onr merchants have no remedy in the matter whatever. In order that our readers may more fully catch our meaning, we will cite acae in point: In the early pari of December a concern in this city re- ceived a lot of goods on which the freight according ing to the tariff, should have been $890. The railroad charged $960, an overcharge of $70, and refused to de- liver the goods unless the charges were first pafd. At this writing the money has not been refunded. We demand protection of cur legis- Iature, and we believe wo are express- ing the desire of nearly the whole mercantile community. We Inslst that they do not adjourn before taking some decisive steps looking to the apooiatment of a railroad commission, Wo believe that unless we follow in the footsteps of eighteen states of the union, aud -appoint suck & commis- sion, the time will come when this grinding monopoly will bankrupt every merchant in the terrltor; Ample Justification.
