We heard a clergyman, distinguished for the
originality and freshness of his thoughts assert from
the pulpit few Sundays ago, that popularity
(pubc opinion) is the Golden Image set up in the
plain of our modern Dura''
The remark is true almost to the letter and ..
in ancient times, in these latter days wo to tIe
man who does not fall down and worship. wh.
the watchword is given Whoever demurs. or re.
fuses to do homage, is regarded as dissente, from
society; and to vilify and harrass such an o.
would, in the opinion of not few, be doing G
service 1t is true that the fires of persecution an
not literally kindled, nor the furnace heated to con-
sumo those who dare to think and speak freely and
act independently as God and conscience seem to
them to require. But bitter burning words we,e
never dealt out more unsparingy on eveIy one
who does not believe the creed of his neighbors.
Nay more, he who doubts even, is damned and
ITO question the wisdom erpedsency of this or
that particular measure for accomplishing GOOD
result, is deemed by many the verv extreme of
indifference and folly. We do not intend these
remarks as applicable to any one class or sect or
party. All are in fault. The spirit of the zoe Is
a spirit of intoerance-a spirit which does not res
pect the rights of private judgment
If man is really wrong, the attempt is too Of
ten made to paint him as black as the Prince Of
darkness, and to hold him and his opinions up to
the scorn and derison of the community, instead
|of seeking to reclaim him in the true spirit of
christian love- Watchtoper.

fortune. The Spanish colony, in the east part of
The island, placed themselves under the govern
ment of Boyer, in 1921, who thus became Presi-
dent OF the whole island. In 1915, Charles X,
King of France, acknowledged the independence

part OF Royert to pay to France $50 900 900 francs
as an indemnity TO the former colonsts for the
loss OF their property.
The present form Of government is republican;
the President who exercises the executive power
commands the forces, and appoints all officers. is
elected for life by the Senate. He receives an an
nual salary of $4,000. The Legislature consists
of Senate and House of Representatives. The
formeris composed of "a members who are chosen
for nine years by the representatives, from list
presented by the President. The House of Re-
presentatives is elected by the people, once in five
years, and consists of one from each commune,
three from Port au Prince, and two for the chief
town of each department.. The code Of laws is
similar to the French. embracing trial by jury.
The island is divided into departments, subdi-
vided in 66 communes, and a. parishes. The
principal towns Port au Prince, (or Port Re-
pubicain.) the capitaI; Cape Has ten. St. Domin-
go, and Jacquemel. The French language is ge-
leray spoken, being used by the government
and the people, except in the eastern part, where
Spanish is spoken. In 1924, the population of
the island was 953, ,335-nearly all blacks and mu-
lattoes; the regular troops, 10000, the militia,
10000. The revenue was - 900. 600.
The education of the people has received much
attention from the government A college is esta-
bished at Cape Haytien, and schools in all parts
of the island. The Catholic is the established re-
ligion, but all sects are tolerated.
On the lst Of February 1898, new treaty Of
peace was concluded at Port au Prince, between
the Republic and the Kingdom Of France. The
balance due from Hayt to France was fixed at
6O.000,O00 fr. to be paid by annual instalments
from 1888 to 1863.
We believe that Jean Pierre Boyer, who, in
1920, was appointed for life, is still President
Of military democracy.

DEsTRucTrvENEss.- the son of Artax-
erxes and successor to that King on the throne Of
Persia, $50 years before the Christian era accor-
ding to all accounts, had the greatest destructive
propensity with very few exceptions, of any in
dividual royal exterminator known on the page OF
history Ten months after usurping the govern
ment, even in his fathers lifetime, he declared
his death, and assumed his name. ths dael pro-
pensity for slaughter was then manifested in the
most shocking and unrestraned manner. To rid
himself of all aspirants of the blood royal he put
them all to death, without distinction of age, sex
or relationship. He caused his own sister Ochee
whose daughter he married, to be buried alive
and having shut one of his unces, with hundred
Of his sons and grandsons, in court Of the palace
he ordered them all to be shot with arrows. Af
ter reign of twenty-three years, he was fnall,
poisoned by his favorite minister the eunuch Bo
goas.

Social AFFEcrIoN.-Society has been aptly
compared to heap Of embers, which when sepa-
rated, soon languish, darken and expire but, if
placed together, glow with ruddy and intense
heat Just emblem Of the strength, happiness, and
the security derived from the union Of mankind
The savage, who never knew the blessings Of com
bination, and he who quits society from apathy or
misanthropc spleen, are like the separated embers,
dark, dead useless they neither give nor receive
heat, are neither loved nor beloved. To what acts
of heroism and virtue in every age and nation,
has not the impetus Of affection given rise To
what gloomy misery, despair, and even suicide,
has not the deserion of society led9 How often
in the busy haunts Of men, are all our noblest
and gentest virtues called forth And how in the
bosom of the recluse do all the soft emotions Ian
gush and grow faint Cashet.

THE GoTHs AND HUNs.-The terrific honors
which these ferocous nations paid to their deceas-
ed monarchs are recorded in history by the inter-
ment Of Atta, king of the Huns, and Alaric, king
of the Goths.
Ata died in 453, and was buried in the midst
Of vast champaign in coffin which was inclosed
in one Of gold, another of silver, and third OF
iron: With the body were inferred all the spoils
OF the enemy, harnesses embroidered with gold
and studded with jewels; rich silks, and whatever
they had taken most precious in the palaces of the
kings they had pillaged; and that the place Of his
interment might forever remain concealed, the
Huns deprived Of life all who assisted at his bu-
rial
The Goths done nearly the same for Aaric in
4lO, at Kosenca, a town in Calabria They turned
aside the river Vasento; and having formed grave
in the midst of its bed where its course was most
rapid they inferred this king with prodgous accu-
mutation of riches. After having caused the river
to resume its usual course, they murdered with
out exception, all those who had been concerned
in digging this singular grave.

OBEprENcE.-The old Russian custom of the
bride, on the evening of the wedding day, taking
off her husbands boot, in pledge of obedience, is
still retained in some parts of the country, as also
that of the husband dsposing in one boot sum of
money, and in the other sUall whip If the
voung wife happens TO bit first upon that contain
mo the money, she keeps t-if not her husband
o;ves her two or three light cuts with the whip.
Hence no doubt, has arisen the universal opinion
abroad that the low born Russian makes known
Ibis love for his wife by the plic;ton Of chastise-
| ment.

HOPE AND MEMORY.
RY MRS. sIGoURNEY.

A little babe lay in the cradle and Hope cam
and kissed it. When its nurse gave il cake
Hope promised another to- morrow and whel
its young sister brought flower over which
clapped its wings and crowed Hope told of brightt
ones, which it would gatherfor itself
The babe grew to child, and another frien
came and kissed it. Her name was Memory
She said, "Look behind thee, and tell me wha
thou seest." The child answered, Il see littl
book" And Memory said, Il will teach thee how
| to get honey from the book, that will be sweet
thee when thou art DID,
| The child became youth. Once when he wen
to his bed, Hope and Memory stood by the pill
low. Hope sang melodious song, and said, "Fol-
low me, and every morning thgu shalt wake with
a smile, as sweet as the pretty lay sung thee
But Memory said, Hope, is there any need
that we should contend : He shall be mine as
well as thine. And we shall be to him as sisters
all his life long
So he kissed Hope and Memory, as he was be-
loved of them both. While he slept peacefully,
they sat silently by his side, weaving rainbow It's
sues into dreams When he awoke, they came
with the lark, to bid good morning. and he gave a
hand to each.
He became man. Every day Hope guided
him to his labor and every night he supped with
Memory at the table of knowledge
But at length Age found him and turned his
temples gray. To his eye the world seemed al
tered. Memory sat by his elbow chair like All
old and tried friend. He looked at her seriously
and said "Hast thou not lost something that en-
trusted thee"
And she answered, Il fear so for the look of
my casket is Worn. Sometimes | am weary and
sleepy, and Time purloins my key. But the
gems that thou didst give me when life was new
can account for al-see how bright they are"
While they thus sadly conversed, Hope put
forth wing that she had worn, folded under her
garment, and tried its strength in heavenward
flight.
The old man laid down to die, and when his
soul went forth from the body, the angels took it
and Memory walked with it through the open
gate Of heaven. But Hope lay down at its thres.
hold, and gently expired, as rose giveth out it
last odors.
| Her parting sigh was like the music of seraph's
harp. She breathed it into a glorious FORM ant
said,
Immortal happiness I bring thee soul tha
| have led through the world. 1t is now thine
Jesus hath redeemed it."

IMPORTANT TO MARINERs.-An action to reco-
yer damages for an assault and battery committed
by Capt. Hathaway, of the New Orleans packet ship
Saratoga. upon his second mate VIM. Freeman.
The assault was admitted, also that the captain
had deprived his mate of the office, and ordered
him forward.
The captain, in his defence, urged neglect of
duty, and his consequent right to infict corporeal
punishment, to break his officer, and send him for
ward.
Judge Hammond in charging the jury, said that
both parties had acted as if ignorant Of marine law
and charged that the captain OF the vessel had a
right to use coercive measures TO preserve order
and discipline on board his vesse-that the police
of ship, and the conduct Of the seamen, some-
times demanded harsh measures; but these were
at all times to be lawful-that the master Of ves
sci had no right to inAct corporal punishment upon
an officer, even for neglect of duty-and that
when found unworthy of trust, it becomes the duty
of the captain to depose him and give otflce to
another; but he has no right to send hum forward,
or compel him to work common nand, but
must furnish him with state room, and BRING MN
home as passenger ..r :. :, =,
