Observation-Disclosures Democracy in

Observation-Disclosures Democracy in,
IA socialistic sense, is rapidly permeat-
ing the highest, and heretofore the most
conservative classes of American socie-
ty. In his new uptown Church of the
Divine Paternity, DIR. Chaplin recently
treated his hearers to some really
"broad church, notions, not often
heard, further down Broadway in the
neighbOrhoOd of the Trinity chimes.
During the evening services of the
opening day he said, it didn't matter
whether race of men were proved to
be inferior or not. One duty was sug-
gested by our finding them here on the
planet with US. God had said "blood, :"
not "the kind of blood, )" but any blood
-''all nations OF men for to dwell on
the face of the earth" 1t was blood
made us equal and entitled us to equal
rights and equal liberty, and the thick
ness of the skull, the crimp of the wool,
or the shape of the heel argued nothing.
The Doctor said that Paul had preached
this kind of doctrine to Areopagus at
Athens, and he, (the Doctor thought it
a very good and fitting doctrine to
preach in that new church of the Di-
vine Paternity on the approach of
Christmas.

eating oil, representing nearly all the

presented to capitalists for the iudicious
formation of commission agency.

of lubricating oil shall be made and
advances paid to producers, under the
direction of Board of Control CAREFUL
~ selected from the best business men
interested therein. Inspectors of

Secretary 2IcCuIIOeh,s PoIIcv,..7


From the NesO York ,HerGlds Money article.
It is evident from both the temper of
Congress and the altered tone Of the
Secretary of the Treasury with regard
to the currency, that measures of undue
contraction will not be adopted, and
that there is some probability of the
present rate of legal tender contraction
namely, four millions per month
being reduced, on the ground that it is
excessive. There is no doubt that it
would be more in accordance with the
interest of the country to keep
the volume of the currency as
nearly stationary as possible, and
the maturing compound interest
notes will of themselves contract
the circulation as rapidly as is neces-
saTy without any cancelling whatever
of plain legal tenders. Congress
should pass an act to limit the contrac-
ton process to a rate not exceeding
twenty millions next year, including
compound interest notes, and declining
at the rate of five millions Il year to five
millions only. The duties of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury should also be
clearly defined, and provision made
against the secret sale of public
gold, or private conversions of national
securities, so that all men may have an
equal knowledge of what the Treasury
is doing, and that the door may be
closed to favOritism and eavesdropping.

CLEvEsLY ToLD.-There was a sensation
story ahoat short time ago, about . man in
Mobile, who, in committing suicide, cut Oh
his head and hid il 30 efectualiy that no one
hos ever been able to find it. The circum-
stance excited the envy of some chap on,
West, who thus tells ofa horrible affair that
recently occurred out in his section:
IAN Indian there, who had lived unhappi>
ly with fifty or sixty squaws, determined upon
suicide. Desiring that no one should be able
to identify any portion Of him, he cut OF both
legs and carried them about FIVE miles into
the woods, on foot and alone. He buried
them and then cut of both his arms, which
he carried some FIVE miles further and buried
Then cutting out his tongue, that he might be
unable to tell any one he might meet who he
was, he proceeded several miles further
chanting his death song as he went He
finally cut Oh his own head. and after anus
ing himself for some time kicking il about %
football, making the woods ring with shouts
Of merriment. he hid it in the trunk OF . tree;
and then, digging grave with bis own hands,
he got in, and covered himself up. and plant.
ed very handsome tombstone at the head Of
his grave. Where is your Mobile man now?'
