REPUBI,ICtNISM.

We present our readers with the following dis
tinction between repubcaniSm and democracy
which W. do not recollect having seen before it oc-
Cured in our mind Democracy is the will of the
majority which ought to rue-and every republican
is willing to yield to il as the sovereign authority
Nevertheless it may be tyrannical--it may be Spe-
ces of deSpotc control an oppressed minority.
We have faith in its ultimate bearing towards uni
versal good. The majority will, in the end, correct
the errors which they have discovered by expe-
rience and democratic government is the only
one that will support the principles of true repub-
licanism By republicaniSm we understand that sys-
tenn of political measures and principles which is
formed with reference 10 the general good, looking
to the rights and interest of the minority as well
as majority. Democracy ofen overlooks every
thing but the interest Of the majority, as If it po-
iticay Just 10 sacrifice the few 10 the many AriS-
tocracy overooks the interest of the majority, as if
ii was politically just to sacrifice the many to the few.
Repubcanism commits conscious injustice, and
is no respecter of persons classes. II is that
servaisln which preserves all those laws and instlu-
ions viii CHI essential to the good of the public
and that reform which destroys only what is PERM
cious Democracy on The other hand is often Jealous
in pulling down all these establishments which are
not exclusively beneficial TO the majority, and aristo
cracy is often bigoted in preserving all those estab
ishmcnts which are not exclusively beneficial 10 the
minority Repubicanism is the policy of the en-
ighened statesman who consults The rights and in
ereSs Of all the divisions of society; ariSocracy is
the policy of selfish few who labor only TO increase
and preserve their own exclusive privileges; demo-
cracy is the policy of the many who may think that
Justice requires only the pursuit of the good of the
has proved that democratic form OF government is
the one which approx mates most nearly that form
which is likely To administer the justice OF pure re-
publicanism.-B0 Boston paper.

After a ride in the keen air by moonlight,
both were soon buried in profound slumber.
But bark what shrll scream rings
through the hotel where we have fingered for
the last few hours So earnest, so piercing
was the cry, that in one moment it reused eve
ny inmate of the large mansion, and it con-
tanned not one sleeper.
What could it be! All was dark, and for
some few moments no sound was heard; but
then again the same shrl voice rung through
every chamber The host, who had already
been once reused, turned round and listened,
and tried to 60 to sleep again, persuading him
self it was all fancy. But Cookie and Kill
kenny, and every waiter, boots, and chamber
maid, huddled on whatever came TO hand,
land in some instances that was very little
and met at the principal staircase.
II hear nothing y said Cookie.
'Oh y cried the chambermaid, but there
has been such cries y
6 1t is all nonsense the peacock in the
yard,-or-'
Hushn interrupted Kilkenny; and the
same cry was repeated, and actually rang
through the vast mansion.
