Maryland has had twenty-five Senators
and one hundred and twenty Representa-.
lives. How is il with the free states q
Massachusetts, has had in the same time
twenty-five Senators and one hundred and
thirteen Representatives, while New Jer-
sey has had twenty two Senators, and
seventy nine Representatives, thus between
these old States, the difference for rotation
is largely in favor of the southern States,
The comparison is much more striking
between the new, than the old States
Take for instance Mississippi, which was
admitted in A. D. 1911, and Illinois which
was admitted in 1918. Mississippi has
had thirteen Senators and twenty-five
Representatives, while Illinois, free
State, has had but eleven Senators and
seventeen Representatives. As a further
illustration, take Ohio and Kentucky,
Ohio has had eighteen Senators, and one
hundred and eighteen Representatives,
while Kentucky has had nineteen Sena
tors and one hundred and six Represent.

The EXPENSES OF THE GOVERNMENT.
The New York Post shows that if all
the appropriations asked for by the Ad.
ministratlon had been granted by Con.
gress, they would have swelled to total
Of $l2O, 100000. It may be that all this
is necessary, and. that even the stealings
cannot be prevented, but it cannot be pre-.
tended tina. the Administration, which
asks for $12o,oOO,00O, and gets two
thirds Of it, should rest content with a
revenue Of half million a week. This
kind of inanciering will hardly be defen-

Of it rests with the Administration

To Make Newspapers Go Safer.


Frequent complaints are made by iso-
lated subscribers respecting the non.
receipt. We are glad TO say such difiicul,
ties are fast being obviated by the very
mesps which an exchange recommends
in The following clever paragraph. That
many more may profit by it, we annex
the paragraph:
awe would like to have all single pack.
els doubled, tlipled, quadruplsd, or more,
if more might be. 1t is troublesome TO
send out these single packets-very
troublesome in proportion to the gain.-
We can put up two or three papers for
the mail nearly as soon as we can one.
Besides, we always realize feeling Of
anxiety in regard to these small packets,
in sending one paper by itself so far.
We feel for them in their lonely and un-
certain journey. As to the large packets,
their very bulk will command some re-
spect from Post Office clerks. But these
solitary little fellows, in their seem.
ing iusignifcance,m ,may probably be kicked
into some corner, or miss their way, and
be last among The hills and bolows. A
small packet does not arrive so certainly
a. its destination as the large one. We
have a remedy to propose for this state o.
things. Let each subscriber wo gets ;
"single packet" now that the paper is Sc
cheap. obtain another subscriber or two
whose papers may go along with his foI
company. 1t is pity to have one papel
take such long journeys as some Of them
do, SOLITARY and Lone" Give them
company, and they will travel more
swiftly. and reach their destination more

The institution 0f the Sabbaih whether
regarded as OF human policy or divine
ordinance, is one of the most beautiful
and blessed inheritances of man. Ii has
a divinity in its adaptation 10 the material
necessities Of our race--as day of rest,
in which to refresh and recreate the
wearied energies of the body--but the
higher divinity lies in the divorce it brings
10 the spirit from the pursuit and care OF
temporal and corrupting things, leading it
10 a clearer and nearer contemplation OF
God, its relation to the immaterial, and
its destiny beyond this feeting life. Its
periodical frequency grasps the soul in
firm bonds, and hemming it around in
association in unison with it's acknowl-
edged sacredness, has done more to dis
cipline the mind, and purify the heart Of
society, than all the problems Of proud
and shifting philosophy.
Like the sublime lessons of Christ, the
Sabbath, contains the profoundest proofs
of its origin in the wisdom and goodness
Of God, in its common acceptance by
enlightened men, and the fulness of salts.
faction it gives to his soul and bodily long
ings. Between nations and races who
observe, and those who do not observe
the Sabbath, there is drawn line, on
the opposite borders Of which, alike, rests
the evidence Of it its beauty and bene.
6cence. On the Sabbath side are civil.
cation, intelligence, industry, art, science,
peace and prosperity--man elevated truly
and nobly in the image of God. On the
other side ale barbarism, ignorance, su.
persition, war and misery--man degra.
ding the image of God.
The Sabbath is not arbitrary nor con-
ventional. The more intelligently it is
observed, the more necessary harmonious
and beautiful it appears; and its temporal
economy however great, becomes secon'
dary and insignificant Contrasted with its
spiritual good, Let any man. let any
philosopher contemplate the oblileratior
Of the Sabbath, and see what a picture
society must soon present. Philosophy
tried the experiment once, with one o.
the most intellectual and philosophical oil
nations, and the result of the tria
taught the world that man cut loose from
the Sabbath, is cut loose from God.-
Atheism itself, denying Goo, has eulogize(
the institution of the Sabbath as the frui
of supreme wisdom, AS members Of g
Christian community, we have all wit
messed and felt the elevating influence o
this Day Of days, and can need no spe
