movement in London to erect monument
to GEORGE PEABODY, and adds:
An American monument should be erect

inscription "He returned to, the poor of
his country a portion of what he hadwrung
from its necessities"
1t is needless to say the Herald is a Radi-

ARInDRN PEOPLE.


The Radicalism of Massachusetts, is based
upon the religion of hate. 1t Is as intolerant
MS the Puritanism which hung the Salem
witches and whipped the Quakers. 1t Is a
sprout of that same root. 1t has ridden the
people of Massachusetts till their backs are
sore, and they bear the infliction of the
Radical rawhide with wonderful meekness.
Lately having used the people to suit them
selves for long time, the Radicals nave
placed upon them a "Constabulary force"
This "force" is authorized to destroy with
cut writ, trial, or Judgment. the property
of hotel keepers, grOcerS, saloon keepers,
us well rs that of wholesale dealers; pro-
vided said people are dealers in q sort
Of property which the ''hOlicr than thou"
radicals are disposed to brush away from the
face of the earth. If you keep on hand any
kind of wine, alcoholic liquor, beer or ci-
der. crash goes the panel OF your door, in
walk your "constabulary gentlemen, and
without further ceremony your demij ohns
are smashed, the heads of your kegs and
barrels are knocked in, and your property
runs into the sewer. Some of the people
of Massachusetts, for wonder, are com
planning of this business at the hands Of
the "holy" set; but after all they bear il
with meekness if not with awe. They are
pretty thoroughly reconstructed people
and take what their masters give them viii

Mistaken Duty.

Many noble and uscful life is ac.
tually wrecked for the sake of some
selfcreated, or, at best, strongly ex.
aggerated duty, into which circum-
stances had dritted the individual,
and for which all other duties (in-
cluding the one, not to man but to
God, to preserve to his utmost ser
vice the mind and body which He
bestowed) are completely neglected.

for the sake of some cXacting pa

constitutes the claim to absorb into
themselves everything that makes
life pleasant or desirable. These are
hard words, but they are true words;
