"The Party Of Progress "

We are often ashamed Of the evident
fear discovered by protesting Democrats.
of ofdiscussing new MISUNDERSTANDING to
old matters of dispute until "leading
" organs" give the cue for freer ac'
ton. The Democratic party is "a party
of progress )" it is confined to no stereoty'
ned measure for the end Of time. 1t i'm.
proves with the times-progresses with
civilization. Wherever tie genious OF
the age points out new benefits to man.
Democracy leads tho way; We repeat,
the Democratic party is necessarily par.
ty of progress. Its principles are found
ed on truth. and will stand forever; yet
the manner Of enforcing those principles
may be very materially changed without
elfecting injury or confusion.
He who, having become possessed Of
the loaned penny, buried it, was just as
wise as the man who objects to the exten.

was once considered the most liberal pol.

Early Culture OF the Imagination.

al remember en- amusing scene which
occurred while we were at country
school, with little boy ofSeven or eight,
the son ola clergyman in the place, at
whose house we sometimes stayed. Hs
was a curious little fellow, as grave and
serious as an old man, but quite possessed
by the usual love Of his age, for fairy
books, and especially tales of giants
Giants to him were the great features oI
these; you would have thought there was
nothing else real in the world, and that
every thing besides existed for their sake
to set them off as it were: giant, in his
idea, being the perfection ofall that was
human. From the parlor to the manse
we could hear him in his own bedroom
as he sat reading "Jsck the giant Killer
aloud, in clear, sonorous voice, with
the solemnity of chapter in the Bible:-
"And Jack went on, and came to a house
where the giant he had heard of was sit
ting at the door eating his supper" and
so on. On Sunday, by way ofa change,
he read ''the Pilgrims Progress" where
Giant Dispair and Doubling castle were
the prime passages. The scenes Of the
prisoner in his dungeon, and ofthe giants
conversation in bed with his wife, were
dwelt upon with indsscrbable zest; the
monster being all the while eviden ly re
garded with favor, as a kind of injured
hero rather than otherwise
"When the little boy first came te
school, he was put in the youngest form
but he did not seem at all troubled Of
bewilderd, by the new scene Of eonfu
sion, but sat pondering over his book ir
his accustomed grave manner, looking
about him now and then, as if he saw
nothing extraordinary. His intelligence
soon made him favorite with the master
who was good naturel man after all
and seemed amused by the cool famil
iarity with which he addressed him.
