barren island where he ended his DAYS
alone and in exile. Precisely such is
TIE history Of this democracy. Its ear
ly victories are due entirely to the fact
thar it was III sympathy with the peo-
pie, and embodied their ambitions and
desires. Its leaders, however, have in-
dulge,l the fatal error Of assuming that
the Democracy" can do no wrong
The name is sufficient. There is no
scheme Of personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, or
despotism, but which if pursued under
color of this title, viii prove successful.
But they are experiencing the results
of their errer. They have cut loose
from the people, and the people uphold
them no longer. Their power has de-
parted. With no common bond of
union left, distraction prevails in their
councils, reconciliation is hopeless, and
as a powerful and successful party their
end has come. The secret of the whole
Is, they have sacrificed the Democratic
sentinent-they have abandoned the

Rules for Church Etiquette.

!. Go late, especially if you have
anything new to wear, as there will be
more present to see YOU enter.
2. AS you enter, carry Your head
high, or walk lofty, or make some I'M
common movement, as 1t shows proper
self esteem, and calls attention which
it would be difficult to get in any 9th
er way.
3. If it is a free church or schoo
house, be sure and appropriate space
enough for yourself, and do not dis
commodc yourselfin the least to give
another a seat, as it will show that yol
have a sufficient estimate Of your indi
vidual Importance, and will give stri
king exhibition of your stability.
i. During service, do not fail to keel
IN motion, as it gives such exercise as
is necessary to health, and attracts the
attention Won desire.
5. Notice particularly all the new
bonnets, shawls, coats and other ap
parel of the congregation, that you may
give a correct description to those who
did not attend, or who, attending, were
SO careless as not to notice for them
selves.
6. Be sure and remember the chap
ter and verse of the text, that you may
