MONDAY, December ll,-La tho House thoro was . long disousioo OD ? bill intro* duood by Mr. Hobo, of S parla u burg, to repeal the law exempting certain property owned by manufacturing companies from taxation for Stato and county purposes. Mr. Hobo contended that the Act, as it stands, is in violatioD of the letter and spirit of the ^institution, which provides for a uniform and equal rato of taxation and exempts .certain specified property. 2. Because it further violates the consti tution whioh oom manda that all property of corporations shalt bo subject to taxation. 8. It is a plaiu evasion of tho law. 4. If constitutional tho Act is unequal and unjust iu its operation, requiring the poor to pay tho taxes of the rich and protecting ooo industry at tho espouse of another. 5. lt is inexpedient, the small amount of taxes exempted being iusufBoient to control tho investment of oupital. A number of tho members took *tho other sido and and after argumentar; and con, o motion to indefinitely postpone the bill was carried by u vote of G3 to 20 We think tho defeat of tho bill wiso, as tho Stale should encourage this homo iodustry and the luw, us it stunde, hus bud a good effect in establishing manufactories al! over tho State, which after tho lapse of teu years will add lurgcly to its texible property.

THURSDAY, December 14-Io the Senato a lon;; disensi?n was had over tho bill providing a modo in which indigent pa tients shall bo admitted into the Stain Luuatio Asylum and supported therein. The bill proposed a small annuli appropriu lion by tho .State for tho asylum and that tho other expenses should bo chargeable to tho counties in the ratio of their beneficiary patients. Out of ?50 inmates all but 25 aro now supported by tho State at a cost of 8212 ench por year. The expenses of the asylum at present aro nearly seven eights cf tho entire expenses of tho State govern? ment and aro increasing at au alarming r ite, thc regents asking this year an appro priai ioo of $114,000. lt is believed that uiatiy of tho bonefiuiuries of tho State either huvo property or ?elutivcs which could or should paru.illy or entirely support thom, but under tho present law tho re sponsibility of such parties aro not and cuu not bo well ascertained. Tho advuoutes of tho hill claimed if counties hud to support their luuatio patients by taxatiod it would become the interests und duty of their citi zens tint no one but real paupers were ad mitted as p'Jttientt] and the expenses of tho institution would bc reduced while irs use ful and humane purposes would not bo im paired. After discussion tho bill was lost by a veto of 19 to 14. The report of tho Judiciary 'Join mit tee that a member of tho Legislature was lint elegibk-as u director of thc pcnclcoliury was adopted by a vote of 15 to G. The hill lo pay managers and commis stoners of election was, after a lung discus sion, postponed to u future day. During the discussion it wus contunded that the per diem and mileage of manager-* und com? missioners wjuld amount tu 840,000.

Alwoya kcerf an enemy OL' band-a brisk, kcsr'y, a? ve cnouiy. Remark tbe r ii of ao enemy: 1. The Lavin \)iie is proof tba! yoa gre somebody. \V/ "ly-wushy, euity worthless poop! . ?ver -.avo enemies Mon who never move, uf^or run ogainet anything) nod when a man ts thoroughly dead sod utterly buvicd .-othiug ever runs against him. To be r.o.u against is proof of ex istonoo and post1 ion; to run aguinst some thing ii proof o? motion. 2 An enemy is, to say tho least, not partial to you. Ho will not ditter you. ile will not oxiggerato your virtues, lt Ia very probable, that he will slightly mtgoify your faults. Tl o beucht of t.mt is two fold. It pcrtniu you to know that you have faults, and aro, therefore, not a mon ster, and it mali's iheui of such size BB to be visible und i..nt;..?o ihlo Of course if you hufo a fuu^ you desire to know it; when you becot: o aware that you havo a fault, you desi e lo correct it. Your enemy docs fur you this valuable work, which your friend ouunot perform. 3 lu addition, your enemy keeps wido awake. Hu dots not let you meer, at your post. There uro two that ohwys keep Walch, u Hildy, the lover and the hater. Your hater watches that you may not sleep. Hu stirs you up when you ore napping Hu keeps your 1 loultics ou tuc alert. Kvcu when he does nothing, ho will have you put io such a st-ite of miad that you can not tell Hiut ht' will du next, and this mental qui vive must be worth Hoinethiog. 4. Hu is u detective among your flietldh. Yuu need to know who your friends arc, und who oro not, and who oto your enemies. Thc lust of these three will discriminate tho other two. When your enemy goes to one who is neither frioud nor enemy end assails you, thc indifferent one will huvo nothing to say or chime in, not beouuso ho is your enemy, hut ficouuso it is so much cosier to e..sc ut than to oppose, and especially than to relate. Hut your friend will tuko up cudgels for you on the instant. Ho will deny everything and insist on proof, and proving is very hurd work. There is uot u truthful mun ia the wurld that could af ford to uudcrtuVo to prove uno tenth of his asscrtioos. Your friend will call your cn? erny to pruuf, ai d if the indifferent person, through oarcics^acss, repeats tho asscrtiou uf your enemy,''ne is boon made to fuol tho inconvenience thereof by the zeal your friend manifests. Follow your enemy arouud und yon will God your friends, for he will havo developed ilium so that they cannot be mistaken. Thc ucxt best thing to having a hundred real friends is to luve an open cucuiy. Dr. Deans.

Si OK IIKADAOIIB.-This complaint is the result nf eating too muuh and exerting too little. In niuo eisen nut uf len thc cause is that tho stomuoho was not ublc to digest the fund lust introduced into it, either (rom i's having bc?ll unsuitable or excessive in <|umtity.

M mining met thc man in St. Louis, and ho said ho would bund him tho money tho next day, but the day passed and thc money did Dot como, though tho man was amply ablo to pay. So ono morning Manning in serted a p rsonal iu tho newspaper to tho cITcot that if tho mau who left Deadwood between two days did not pay tho mouey ho forgot to pay, before night, tho whole circumstance would bo published tho next day. Tho notice was signed "John Mun oiog, Shoriff of Deadwood." Beforo 9 o'clock a young man called ot Manning's and said he had seen the notice and carno to pay 8220 lie had borrowed to get out of Deadwood. Munuiug found out who the money was borrowed of, and took it to corry tho Deadwood oitizen, remarking that ho was not tho man the Sheriff referred to, but it wns a mighty mcau sheriff (lint would not carry money to a friend. Tho next man to call was the man he wanted, and ho paid tho money and apologized, and begged tho Sheriff to say nothiug about it.

Wilde this might at first sight only seem to indicate o temporary decrease aris ing from special causes, which would operate only for a short time, there are not wanting indications that it foreshadows o permanent declino in the demand for those articles. This declino is attributublo to various cuuscs. Hcport8 from France, Eogland and Ocr many show that there is a marked increase io tue home produots of tho staple, arising in all propubility from tho extreme high pi ices which American products have com manded. Tho ogrioultural returns of Eng land for 1882 show on increase in tho whole nutubor of hoes over 1881 of 462,000, ond there is a still further inercaso in tho fu ture. In Frunce the increase io tho num ber of hogs is estimated at 1,000.000, while in Germany it is even greater Theso figures should lead our exporters and packers to prepare for a largely decreased export demand tor these products. A Western paper expresses thc opinion that wc shall never seo meat as cheap again as it hus been. One reason given fur this opining is, that it will take years to replace the cattle that starved in tho far West during the severo winter of 1880-81 and then thu lurgc accessions to tho meat con suming population keep priocs up. Tho cattle supply, however, is increasing iu Montana, Wyoming and Colorado and moro attention is given to stock raising in the grass regions iu tho Southern States The profits of shipping dressed beef in refriger ator ears aro turning many people into Ibis business. According to the British Med icol Jour milutha recent crema'iotis in Dorset prove that littlo mort than two hours aro required to perfect the process.
