We are not sure that Mr.. Clay, when he

The following creed we cut from a speech made
by George M. Dallas, some two years ago, before
he thought OF, or was thought of by othsrs, for
the high Office to which he now is nominated:
DEMOCRACY IS
l. The essential legal equality Of human be.
ings.
2. The people the only source Of legitimate
power.
8. The absolute and lasting severance Of church
from state.
4. The freedom, sovereignty, and indepsn-
dence of the respective States.
5, The Union a confederacy or compact, nei-
Their a consolidation nor a Capitalization.
6. The constitution ofthe Union a special writ
ten grant of powers limited and defined,
Again:
/. No hereditary Office, nor order, nor title,
2, No taxation beyond the public wants.
3. No national debt if POSSIBLE.
4. No costly splendor of administration,
5. No prescription ofopinion nor Of public dis
~cussion.
6. No unnecessary interference with indiyidu-
al conduct, property, or speech,
Z. The civil paramount to the military power,
And again:
/. The representative TO obey the instructions
of his constituents.
2. No favored classes and no monopoliee.
3. Elections free and suffrage universal.
a. No public money expended except by war
ant o fspecifc appropriations.
5. No mysteries in government inaccessible
to the public eye.
6. Public Compensation for pnblic services
moderate salaries and peryadiHg economy and
accountability.
The tone of the wing papers shows that they
are frightened. They seem to be struggling il
a morass. The enthusiastic manner il which
the State Nominations are received and the
Growing Triumph Of the Maine election waahoa
them up like Dives in torment. Tho core of

WHO ARE THE REAL FRIENDS OF THE
WOOL GROWERS?

Wing editors and slangwhangers are doing all
in their power to pull pool over the eyes of their
readers, by crying up the present price of that
article, and attributing the increase to the supe-
rior tact and management of their party. 1t is
true, wool is higher now than it was last year;
but as the same tariff was in operation then and
now, this does not afford a tair comparison. The
true test is, to compare the present prices with
those under the Compromise Act, and then see
how the account stands. Here ii is, as taken
from the New York prices current:

LOVE AND PRIDE.-Many a man has seen his
choice for a partner in life, in the humble girl,
far beneath him in the opinion of the world, and
love and pride might have struggled with him
for a while, yet pride triumphed, and he sought
one from the higher walks of life. In all the vi
cissiludes of social existence nothing can be ca
pable Of i%nlicting more certain misery than is
sure 10 follow such a course. 1t distracts the
general harmony of our days, misshapes our ends,
shortens the length 0 fife, lessons the stature of
manhood, and is contrary 10 the divine instruc-
lions ofthe Bible, for it declares that where love
is, there is peace, plenty and thriftiness Eve
ry thing good is sure TO follow a happy union,
Let not pride interfere in this matter.

Cousins ki$seS.-IIearw what Corporal Streeter
says about kissing cousins;
"The lips of a pretty cousin are a sort of neu-

If you sip, it is not because you love, nor exactly
because you have the right, nor upon grounds
Platonic, nor with the calm satisfaction that you
you buss a favorite sister. 1t is a sort of hocus

The world had thought cared so little for
Mr.. James IL. Polk, of Tennessee, before his no.
mina'ion for the Presidency of the United States
by the Democratic National Convention, that
very few people are to be found who know much
about him. Every little incident in his life,
therefore, which from his former want of conse-
quence had been suffered to pass almost unno-
tced, now becomes Of interest.-The following
are some Of the discoveries recently made in re-
gard TO this occult subject We believe they are
10 be ascrlbed TO the Lynchburg Virginian:
James H. Polk, in 1928, voted against the bill for the
eie OF the surviving officers Of the Revolutionary
tgMn IN $780, he voted against the Revolutionary men
sion Dbl. And in 1882, he voted against the same bill
In 1881, MIR. Polk voted, in minority of 30 against
the resolution, offered by Mr. Mercer directing the pre-
aent to negotiate with the maritime powers of Europe
and America for the ecctua abolition of the African
Slave Trade and its ultimate dcnunciation as PIRACY
ander the laws of nations by the consent of The
civilized world.''
