The Cradle and the Old Arm Chair.

No house is complete without two pieces
of furniture-the cradle and the old arm
chair. No house is full that hath not in it
babe and grandfather or grandmother.
Life becomes more radiant and perfect when
its two extremes keep along with it
The two loves which watch the cradle and
serve the chair are one. But how different
in all their openings and actions. To the
child the heart turns with more tenderness
of love To the aged parent love is borne
upon a service of reverence. Through the
child you look forward-through the parent
you look backward. In the child you see
hope, joys to come, brave ambition, and
life yet to be drawn forth in all It's many
aided experiences. Through the silver
haired parent you can behold the past. in
its scenes enacted, its histories registered.

THE DEMOCRATIC REVIEW, REVIEWING THE
''HoLY CATHOLIC CHrRcu''


Every day developments are being made
showing that the great principles which lay
at the foundation of the American party
the principles which called that party into
exis;ence-are honestly entertained By the
best men of all parties. Look at Mr.
Buchanan's philippe against foreigners and
foreign influence. delivered at a time when
the honest sentiments of the man would
naturally find uiterance without being con-
trolled or Influenced by personal or party
motives and considerations. Look at An
drew Ewing. prominent leader OF the
Anti Americans in this State, who. before
that party had formed an alliance with the
foreigners in speech made in Congress in
1850, (extracts from which we have already
presented to the reader) took strong grounds
against the baneful effects of foreign iDflu-
ence The State of New Hampshire, when
it was thoroughly Democratic, adopted
provision in its constitution excluding Cath
olics from holding Office within the State !;
and while the Democratic party has had
unlimited control in that State since the
organization of parties down to within very
recent period, that clause has never been
stricken out But i; is not worth our while
to point to such iDstances-the history of
the party is full of them
Our present purpose is to make some
extracts from a leading editorial in the
Democratic Review for November and De-
ccmber. 1852, on Political Religion in
which some heavy blows are dealt out upon
the abuses, and corruptions. and evil ten
deneies. and anti-repuNicaz principles of
the Roman Catholic Church, which. at this
time, is, strange to say. defended by the
Sag-Nieht party as being as pure and i'm
maculate as any Catholic priest could have
the hardihood himself to claim. After
speaking of the workings of this church. the
Review. page 603-3, says:

made PoPes, dogmas, treaties, and empires,
