INDIRECT FALsEHooD.-The open and
direct violater of the truth, like the high
wayman, may lay claim to certain sort
Of courage. They run similar risks, the
one of detection, tho other of heing shot.
But some there are, who will steal secret
ly, and others who will falsify the truth
by indirectioC; these are on par, both oc-
cupyns the same low and degraded level
of cowardice. He who insinuates false
hood, whether by word or gesture, either
hypothesis or interrogatory, proves at once
his dastardly disposition, and his disre-
gard of truth. Such persons too, are uni.
fornly malicious; they desire to do injury,
10 crafty jealousy, revenge. or some other
base passions; aud while impelled by their
wicked propensties TO do The bidding Of
the Satan within them, they are destitute
of the courage to do it openly, and thus
their cowardice drives them to indirec,ion.
The indirect lie is frequent weapon in
the hand of the sanderer, and is generally
found IN such ccnnexion with infamous

The STANDING ARMY OF JOHN AD.
AMs.-General William Henry Harrison,
the hero candidate of the hard cider party.
for President, on the 7h Of January, 1900.
made a speech in Congress against the re-
ducliou Of John Adams Standing Army.
upon a resolution introduced for that pur-
pose, in which he used the following Ian
guage:
"He had experienced seven years SER
vice with the militia, but was sorry to say,
such was their conduct, that be never could
think Of trusting the country entirely 10
their protection. They might do well with
regular troops, and no doubt would. Un-
der these impressions, and from this expe.
rience, he knew he spoke the will OF
great proportion Of his constituents; lie sin-
cerely hoped the resolution would not
pass"
Gen. Harrison, as well a, the party
with which he has acted from youth 10 tho
present day. has always distrusted the
people. He doubts their capacity 10 gov
ern themselves-he says empha,icaliy i'll
the above, that he could not "trust the
country to their protection" in other
words, he could not trnst them with tho
duty of protecting themselves! He voted
to sell them in Ohio as slaves. He aP-
proved an act while Governor Of Indiana.
when his word alone was law, SO far as
his veto was concerned, TO whip as well as
sell them. He supported John Adams
Standing Army, because the people he
considered unfit to defend lhemselves!-
For this devotion 10 the doctrine of feder-
aism, few mouths afterwards, he was
rewarded by Mr.. Adams. On the 18th
of May he was appointed Governor Of In
diana. or in The words of Duane's Aurora.
"Sancho received the government of Bar

of his master"

The New Orleans papers persist in
saying that the population of that city, by
the new census, will exceed 100000. In
1890, it was less than $4,000. We think
there is no other instance on record where
so large city has doubled its population
in ten years. The aggregate population
of the five largest cities in the United
States-viz: New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, New Orleans, and Boston,
will probably exceed 100000. Still this
is only half as great as the present popu-
la,ion of the single city Of London! Fiji

three Londons!
