ALITORSIA -Bxauior. BOSH Hoop of Gold. TIVGLI OAKOKN William TrU.J THB TRIBCVK has circulation more than lull tt of ny other paptr publl neil.m lam-am Conniy. Trichinae in Germany. The recent edict, published by the German authorities, warniog the people not to eat 4uucooked pork, hams or ws they are beginning to understand the question, and may arrive at the conviction that they have stupidly slandered the Americai hog and owe him in apology At the first severe outbreak of trichiuiasis ia Germany they concl djd that it was owffig to the importation of diseased American pork, and down went the gates so cloae mt no pig could crawl under them.

But the disease coatinued to spread, and iu Saxony and Bavaria raged like an epi demic, and they were roWictautly com-pelfe I to admit tht the German hog save the trichioae, Ilenae the proclamation of warning. It is now patent t'aat if Bismarck continues to discriminate against the American pig, that he is aiming a direct blow at a lucrative branch of American commerce, aud in that case it should be -promptly and emphatically resent id. If the Germans cook their pork as other good (Limstiaos they will not be troubled by the trichinte, and tere will no longer exist a shadow of an excuse for discriminating against the American hog. If they mean to deal honestly with him they will take him by the ear and look straight into his face and confess that they have ignoraotly wronged porcine dignity aud will do so no more. "Fraudulent Butter.

The examinations recently made by the Senate Committee of the Ne a- York Legislature furnish the most indubitable evidence that fully ninety per cent, of all the butter sold in the city of New York is adulterated. That suine, but-terme and oleomargarine are boldly palmed off upon an unsuspecting com munity as the genuine production of cow's milk. This proportion may be greater than in othercities, but it is un doubtedly true that the fraudulent trade ii carried on everywhere. One Chicago wituess testified that he macufactured two grades of butterine, the first con taming twenty per cent, of poor batter, and tha sacor.d from forty' to fifty per c--nt. of the best creamery, aud that the poorer quality was chiefly sold iu Pictsburg, where, he said, "the people don't know good but ter when tbev see it, and would not have good butter at any price." It may be possible that tallow.

While Sweden is and apparently content, under the away of the bouse of Bebnapottk, Norway has been for some years slowly drifting towards a Republic, and seems to be nearly on the eve of realizing it.

King Oscar may be a good poet and courtly gentleman, but bis notion of ruling his hardy Norwegian subjects has not won their approval. Ha has upheld bis ministers in a number of arbitrary acts against the will of the people clearly expressed by their representatives iu Parliament. The King has seen fit to exercise the veto power very frequently, a power denied him by liberal statesmen and very off to the mass of the people. The result is that one of his most promiuent ministers was impeached for high treason and only escaped by the skin of his teeth. The end is not yet, and a Norwegian Hepub-lie way np there in the frozen north, antler the boreal lights, is apparently only a questi of the near future.

Is it wiser or less ex pensive to givd them a smattering of breach, mineralogy, trigonometry and zoology, than to sbow them how to make a dress or bonnet? When the real welfare of the children is studied it will be an es tablished rule that every pupil shall be well drilled iu ooie popular trade and given a diploma ben skillful in millinery, dress-makiog, underclothing, or a teacher, nurae or co k.
