Aaken - the immediate result o~fcourte-

these quotations put into the month OF
MIR, jefferson, that bears that common
and degrading character OF falsitica
ton, so Indispensable to the cause OF
,Jacksonism, in a very striking degree

given, IL al uding to Gen Jackson, a
toast at a celebration in Lynchburg

gratitude to the man who has filled the

was 10 these words, as has been proven
by a reference TO The Lynchburg paper,
in which it was originally pu6iished:-
"Honour aud gratitude to those who
have filled the measure OF their o
try's glory"
Bot by slipping out the words those
and their, and very neatly substituting
him and his, The toast is MADE 20 read
as an exclusive appreciation ct Gen
Jackson, and an indirect countenance
OF his presidential claims, although the
toast was given long before he was
brought forward as a candidate.

FROM OUR coRREsPoNDENT.
BosToN. March $50

BOSTON, MARCH 3, 1928
The business before the Legislature. at the
beginning of this week, has not vet been
disposed of so as to terminate the Session
to-day. Several unimportant subjects of dis
cussion have occupied the House since last
wrote to you. The bill, providing for the
use of broad-rimmed wheels, has passed to
be enacted. Provisions somewhat similar
were introduced into England more than
half century ago, and therefore have the
test of full experience. 1t is to be hoped
that we may take advantage of that expe-
renee, and that the good sense of the peo-
pie win allow the measure to become a per.
manent law. In that way we may look for
such an improvement of our public roads as
will vastly facilitate the transportation Of
goods, &c. and diminish in no small degree
the highway tax which is so great burden
to the community.
on Tuesday the bill to provide for inter-
mai improvements by Rail Roads was taken
up and gave rise to very earnest and ami
mated discussion, which occupied nearly the
whole of that and the following day. A
strenuous effort was made, by those opposed
TO the bill, to refer the subject to the next

allowed. Tea parties, we care not, i'll
have, or coffee parties ifthey choose, buJ
must hereafter be served up as a staDS|
dish for breakfast.
On our part, we engage to relieve !
gentlemen of all the trouble they have n
put to in attending to cash concerns 1
the management Of estates; we shall re-
late public affairs in town meetings, chl
ing by female suffrage, out ofour number
lectwomen, town clerks, and school Com
tees; and, in fine, all occupants of placs
profit and trust. Presidents, professors
students, will be turned pel nell out Of
lege, and the youth of that sex will red
in boarding-schools the education best l
ed to their capacity; while the strong u
and fertile imagination of the female .
will enjoy that higher cultivation so 1
nently their due, and which alone has
the ruder sex on any thing like an 9.
footing with their natural endowment.
Thus, as said before, the sexes, genel
speaking, are to step into each others
ces. In one or two things we have tho
best that this should not be the case. S,
dial, as it is maliciously called, being q
properly the investigation of human nat
we could not for an instant think of n
gushing; partly, because it is one Of
Developments; partly, because men VI
spoil its spirit, having neither our wit Il
vent, nor our grace and skill to propay
Making this reservation, we are conte.
allow the gentlemen, as an offset, to "a
their old privilege of offering themselVs
ladies, to be accepted or not, as the d
please; only providing, that if the ge;
man does not see fit to make his advan
or do not do it in sufficient season, the
shall have an undoubted right to him vi
ever she pleases.
Such will be the future social edifc

MEssRs. EDIToRs-There is perha,
part of public worship more susceptiE
raising devotion in the breast than the
ing; there is certainly nothing better
ted to lift our hearts to the Great AuhE
our being than the song of praise;
thoughts seem borne on the vibrating
from this world and its vanities, to !
brighter regions above, and sensatal
hallowed joy spreads itself over the I
while we listen to its melody.
These emotions however cannot be al
ed without a degree of perfection in (
performance of the music. We canns
deeply interested when all is cold o.l
part of those who should call forth oul
most feelings, nor when harsh discord ed
upon the ear can we be impressed viii
lemn fervour.
1t Is of the highest importance, therea.
that strict attention should be paid oa
part of public worship. 1t has been, 4
too much neglected in our country churaI
A desire seems prevalent in many, rathg
get through with its performance in
quickest manner possible, than to proa
that impression which sacred harmug
calculated to excite in the minds of the l
gregation. 1t should be recollected.
whatever is done in haste never Cd
done well" and the remark applies to
thing more justly than to church music.
Great care should be used in the seleA
of tunes, not only as to their solemnits
sweetness, but also as to their propris
regard to the Hymn or Psalm to which /
are to be sung. When words are emp
ed which in themselves are of no Cd,
quence, and others neglected upon u
depend the beauty and strength of the !
position of the poet, it destroys the eff
the whole.
1t IS almost if not quite as essential 81
attainment of excellence in vocal mus;
study to read correctly, as to be vel
quainted with its science, for none CO
affected by what they do not undersa
neither can they affect others.
Correct pronunciation should be d
ously aimed at; otherwise, that deld
which is SO pleasing in music viii be
stroyed.
These remarks are made not so mueil
the effect they may have in themselrs
IN the hope that they viii elicit SUCCESS
of practical utility on this interesting )
Ject, from some one more competent tsi
task than myself.

"THE MoRGAN AFFAIR" No reader
can be ignorant of the excitement which has
for more than year prevailed in New York
particularly in the interior of the State, oc-
casioned by the alleged murder of Can't
Morgan, by members of the masonic frater-
nifty, In consequence of an attempt on his
part to reveal the secrets which constitute
the peculiar organization of the Freemasons.
The book which was said to have been
written by this Morgan has had its run, and
somebody has made round speculation of
the adventnra, whether il be tragedy or a
farce. This book we do not believe has had
the effect upon the community which was
intended by the deyisers of it. 1t has nei-
Their opened the doors of an institution which
is established on the best of foundations.
and which claims the privilege of conduct
ing its business in secret-a privilege which.
thanks to our constitution and laws, no man.
nor body of men. can deny it; nor has it
turned the current of public opinion with re-
gard to its tendency In a moral point of
view, which we believe to be at this day de-
cidedly In It's favour. Those ignorant of
the character and design of the order of
freemasonry, and who have had the foolish
curiosity to seek information in this book.
VIII find BY and BY, to their modification,
that their time and money had been better
spent in better cause.
But we wander from our purpose, which
was simply to advert to what we cannot but
consider farcical result of the morgan
tragedy" as it Is called. We allude to the
