THE REPUBLICAN FLAG.

Within the last few weeks more than twenty
journals have hoisted the name of JOHN TYLER
at their mast heads for President, and more than
hundred presses have, within the same time,
made decided demonstrations in his favor in
their editorial columns.
Without patronage, without even an organi-
cation of his friends, this must be regarded
solely as movement of the People in favor OF
an honest Chief Magistrate.
The friends of other prominent men have
once or twice exerted themselves TO " raise a
breeze" but as soon as their exertions ceased
the " wind died away" and now '.dead calm
regns in their ranks.
In vain may politicians write letters and print
them, if the People do not sustain them. But he
who has the People on his side, need not resort
to the tricks of party, the political wires, TO pro-
duce manifestation in his behalf.
We have said, repeatedly, that the Peo-
pie would not submit TO be humbugged again,
for many a day to come, and the passing events
afford abundant evidence of the truth OF
The assertion. Politicians now call upon the
People TO no purpose-they are pulseess. Eve.
~ effort on the part of the 'leaders" to produce
an cold fashioned enthusiam," will be dead
failure. The Republican cause goes onward
without an effort.

NEW ARM OF THE MILITARY.

We find the following extracts from the volume Of
the British Naturalists Library concerning Bees, in
late number Of the London Quarterly. They con-
tain the only application of the anger OF the bees,
to useful purposes, which we have seen re-
corded
"A small privateer with forty or fifty men, hav-
ing on board some hives made of e3rthern ware full
of bees, pursued by Turkish galley manned
by 500 seamen and soldiers. As soon as the latter
came alongside, the crew Of the priyateer mounted
the rigging with their hives, and hurled them down
the deck of the galley. The Turks, asionished
at this novel method of warfare and unable TO de-
end themselves from the stngs OF the enraged bees
became terrified that they thought Of nothing but
how 10 escape their fury while the Of the small
vessel, defended by masks and gloves, flew upon the
enemy sword in hand and captured the galley al
most without resistance"
The reviewer well remarks that il must strike
the reader how well furnished this vesse must have
been TO afford at the moment masks and gloves for
forty men,
The other extrlct contains application of the
same military arm TO the purpose of preserving the
peace:
During the confusion occasioned by a time Of
war IN 1925, a nest Of peasants assembling in Holm
stem, IN Thuringa attempted TO pillage the house Of
the minister Of Eleude, who, ha,ng in vain employ
I'd all hs eloquence TO dissuade them from their de-
sign, ordered his domestcs TO fetch his bee hives,
aud throw them in the middle Of this furious mob
The effect what might be expected; the peasants
Immediately put to fight, aud those were happy

{" THE TRAITOR"

Let no ultra Wing, or other politician ven
lure TO call President Tyler traitor. The one
who does this, deliberately and knowingly Ut
tiers falsehood.
Mr.. Tyler proclaimed his opposition to U.
s. Bank on all occasions, in 1910, when can
ddate for the Vice Presidency. And this The
Wing leaders well know.
But that we are justified in branding false
hood on the forehead Of any man who may say
that the President was guilty Of lroachery, in
veong the Bank bills, we have only 10 refer 10
to the letter of the Presidelt published in this
paper few days since) dated November 6,
1910. The original iefte, is on our table, anu
wiH be shown TO any one ,rho may desire TO
see ii.
The President has been consistent Repub-
lcan throughout his political life. 1t will not
do for pre- higale weaher-cocks TO call him traitor
nor shall they do it with impunily, as long
as we can WELD pen.

LITERARY NOTICE.

FATHER Oswald, a genuine Catholic story Cas-
serly & Sons, New York, 3O4 PIP. l2mo.
Besides being answer made in defence Of
respectable class of our fellow-citizens against
very plausible and very ably written attack this work
comes forth, in a manner al once so attractive, so
nofensive, and yet solid, that among controver.
sial novels, it may be considered unique. Contrary
to Polemic works generally, which are too often
dry dull and abstract Father Oswald is Of a very
lively, spirited, and really instructive character
Although written in the style of Novel it is, by no
means, one, strictly called and whatever of
Noreiism 1t does possess, has been forced the
thor's choice from the nature of the production to
which this is a reply.
The scene is laid in England, and opens with the
last sickness aud conversion to Catholicism Of an
English mechanic laborer, who had "read the bible
and Judged for himself-that the belief and practice
Of the Church Of England were dametrica opposed
to the sacred word Mrs. Seton, whose husbands
estate the convert had resided, being long doubtful
Of the truth Of reformation principles was rendered
still by the different conduct Of the two cler-
gymen in attendance on the dying man the cold
heartes worldly Indifference Of the Church Of Eng
land Rector, and the compassionate, sincere, and
jealous demeanor Of the Catholic Jesuit She then
sits herself with all audsble anxiety to examine the
respective tcnets Of the rival churches and eyentu,
ly, from the ERNEST conviction, embraces the Catbo
lie faith At this conscientious determination her
husband, MIR. Seton, rigid Protestant, was so en-
ragged TO deprive her of their chidrsn-the young
then the bresst-snd depart for a tour on the
Continent. After many vcissitudes and har-bresd,h
escapes being at time left for dead in the streets
Of Paris, during the GLORIOUS three days and after
this on the point Of being murdered by Italian ban.
ditthe, too becomes convinced Of the truth of the
Catholic religion, returns to England, is reconced
10 his cruelty treated wife, and, together with all his
family, declares himself convert TO the Catholic
church The conclusion is happily brought out, and
relieves the mind Of the reader from long and pain ul
anxiety. 1t is for sale at the booksellers in this dis
| trict.

THE CURRENCY

The Exchequer, as Il promises good currency. is
daily growing into repute with the people and ought
therefore, in our Judgment, to be taken up by Con
gress and adopted. We are by no mean, very anx-
ious about The name, or shape Il may assume. All
the public vast Is, circulating medium that will
circulate all over the country. The merchants and
business men feel an anxious desire to try IT, WHY
not, therefore, let II be experimental upon and n Il
will not suit tho expectations Of the country at large
We will be sooner ready to fall in upon some other
eXPedlent TO relieve us from our present pocuniary
embsrrassments. Our country can never prosper
unless Il has sound currency, that will pass alike
IN every section Of the Nation. n the Exchequer
shall be passed over this sion the coun-
try will be doomed for long time to all the alarm
ing evils that now overhsng it. Might not the Ex-
chequor proposition be put into some such shape as
could meet the wishes Of majority Of both Houses
Of Congress- Surely the sbles, mon In the Nation
ought 70 be able to give US = currency for the Ma
ton
