FIeosOii-ish Democracy.

supporting Mr.. B. ''On the ground that as he

he would be more acceptable to the Free SoZish

Mr.. CAMrBuL Q.EwIs d. made a stirring
speech ~ the FILLMoEE and DOSEIsoN ratit-
cation meeting in Neutrality-suspicious. and

Will our ueghbor, in view Of what he
knows Of Mr. CAmBElL's position, say that
he is a supporter Of FILLMORE and DoSEL-

referred TO, in their favory Or did he not
decline expressly to do sol Did he not
afterwards write letter, stating that he
did not at that meeting or any other so

THE CASH SYsTEM-lIow IT WoRKs.--
Under this. ;aption, osescf our best Penn.
sylvanla Exchanges, the Waterford Dispatch,
has very sensible article rs 10 the result of
publishing newspaper on the Credit and
Cash systems. The publisher of the Dis
patch has tried both plans and tho following
is his experience:
ain the publication of this paper wo have
tried three years upon the credit basis and
know that we have suffered from it. With
n list of 1000 subscribers we ended our third
year. At the commencement of the fourth
year we adopted the cash system and erased
from cur books the names of all these who
were then in arrears number we had just
1900. Had we commenced in the first place
under this system, we would never lost a
subscrber-but in these days people get
their back up when asked to pay the printer
Our revised list has maintained its standard
of 1900 paying cash subscribers, and is grad.
ually on increase, and others will find it to
work just as well should they adopt it. 1t is
suicidal policy for any man to undertake
the publication of newspaper upon the cred
1t system-if it does not run him in yeni
or two-it will do SO eventually. We give
our experience and trust that no delay will
be made by our brethren to adopt the cash
system-until they do so, they need not cx.

tB- Some of the New York papers in
their effort to allay the excitement in that
city occasioned by the report that the British
government were about to concentrate large
military force in Canada, endeavor to explain
the movement by assuring their readers that
it is only the return to Canada of the troops
who were drawn from there to serve in the
Eastern war, which is now at an end. They
cay nothing, however, OF the rumor that near
ly all the regiments in the home service had
been notified that their services would prob
ably be required in Canada.

respondent Of the Richmond Wing, in notic-
ing the unparalleled prosperity which has
attended certain Commercial and Manufac.
turing houses which he visited, says: "ln Or
dor to secure customers they Advertise freely,
which is all essential if merchant or bust
ness man wishes to be successful. For ill.,
stance, one of these clothing stores pays to
the Boston Atlas only, sir hundred dollars
year for adrertising." He mentions several
men who had begun with capital of 1926,
but who had grown enormously rich, ana one
of the great means depended on was adver.
tising freely. lie acknowledged that he was
drawn to their store by seeing their adver-
tisements, MS well MS hundreds of other stran-
gers. In fact, strangers almost invariably go
to houses they see freely advertised.

WHEN is A MARRIAGE CoNsUMMArEp!-A
novel case came up before Judge Bacon last
week, circumstances of which are as ,fonows:
A constable had levied upon the proper,ysof
n man and sold it. The owner claimed That
he was married man and the property was
exempt from law, and sued the constable
for damages. On the trial it was shown
that the marriage ceremony was performed
about two hours before the levy was made,
and the court decided that the marriage had
not yet been eonsummated, and the complain
ant was not married man, within the mean
ing of the statute. The levy was therefore
held to be good.-Syracuse STANDARD, Feb.

of Virginia having been in effect destroyed,

US as n candidate for the Presidency upon

strict adherence to the Federal Constitution,
in principle and in substance.

The DIFFERENCE IN MEE-We often sec
an old and weather. beaten man who never
bad Il success in life, who always knew more
and accomplished less than his associates,
who took the quartz nnd dirt of enterprise,
while they took the gold; and yet, in old age,
he is the happier man, and all his life long he
WAS the happier man. He had a sum of hope,
and they of desire and greed-and amid all
this misfortune and his mysterious provi.
dences he had that within him which rose up
and carried his heart above all troubles, and
upon their worldwide waters bore him up
like the old Ark upon the Deuge. II was the
Deluge that gave out--not the Ark. God has
distributed his gifts. 1t takes a score of them
to make one man. One supplies the swift
sagacity; another the cautious logic; another
the impelling force; another the hope, another
the practical tact-one supplies general prn.
ciples, another the working plans. Men sell
dom unite by the strong points. 1t is mems
weaknesses that bind them together. BY
distributing gifts, God makes one man de-
pendant upon aLother, and YIELDS society to.
gether by making every man necessitous, in
some places as regards other men.

One WAR SWALLOWING ANoTHER.-
Since the war with the United States has
broken out in the English press, our own pa.
pers have not had single battle in Kansas,
though every day before that, the most alarm
ing reports of engagements were reported.
As the Philadelphia Ledger observes, there
never was an instance in which a foreign
war so completely swallowed up domestic
insurrection. If the foreign war should
cease as suddenly as it has broken out, we
shall probably have some more bloody opera
tions on paper in the excitement journals.

RUNAWAY ExTRAoRDIHARY.-On Monday

the Bnghamton (Ncw Jerscy) railroad by

The engineer and conductor followed with a
