The People of Mexico.

The New York Round Table,
draws the following portrait of the
people Of Mexico. 1t says;
GAS matter of fact, 10 people on
earth, reputed civilized, are so utter
ly and irredeemsbly despisable as
the Mexicans. They are not cow
araly, blood thirsty and indolent
alone, but liars and thieves as well.
Nor are these qualities confined, as
some would have it, to the lower
classes. . Maximillian had a beauti-
full revolver, of great value, mounted
in gold and ivory; it was stolen at q
military council where none were
present below the rank Of General.
Jewels and other costly articles were
notoriously and regularly filched
from Carlotta wherever she moved.
Santa Anna had his lnkstand stolen
at q council of ministers, and the
room was darkened to enable the
thief to return it undetected. The
scoundrel Lopez who betrayed his
master is well known as an adroit
thief. The truth is that stealing is
so universal in Mexico that it has
almost cone to be regarded as a mat
ter of coarse, and other vices on
which we need not dwell, are equally
so, and are rather more rife among
the upper classes, if anything, than
among the lower. The Mexicans
have no moral fibe. Physically and
intellectually are equally deficient
To talk about patriotism and liberty
and the sense of honor among such
beings is simply nonsense"
The Hancock Jeffersonian. [volume] (Findlay, Ohio) 1857-1870, 1867-08-16
Democracy. Etc.

In Louisiana, General Longstreet
one of the most distinguished of th'
rebel generals, says regarding tn,
Democratic party:
The striking feature and the ont
that Our people should keep in view
is, that we are a conquered people
Recognizing this fact fairly and
Isquarely, there is but one course lef,
for wise men to pursue-accept the
terms that are offered US by the con
tquerOrs. There can be no discredil
to a conquered people tor accepting
the conditions offered by their con.
Iquerors. Nor is that any occasion
for a feeling of humiliatian. We
have made an honest, and i hope that
| may say, creditable fight, but we
lave lost. Let us come forward,
then, and accep. the ends that involv-
ed in the struggle.
Our people earnestly desire that
the constitutional government shall
be re-established, and the only means
TO accomplish this is to comply with
the requirements of the recent Con-
|gressional legislation.
4 4 4 4
The military bill and amendments
are peace offerings. We should ac-
|cept them as such, and place our
selves upon them as a starting point
from which to meet future political
issues as they arise.
Like other Southern men, I natur-
ally sought alliance with the Demo-
cratic party, merely because, it was
opposed to the Republican party
But, as far as l can judge, there is
nothing tangible about it, except the
issues that were staked upon the war
and lost. Finding nothing to take
of except prejudice, which cannot be
worked into good for any one, it is
proper and right that l should seek
some standpoint from which good
may be done

LILLY BELLS.
BY MISS Z. S. OF NANTUCKET


Twas golden summer in my heart, gla
summer all around
When with a wreath Of lily bells my 'Lill..
Bell crowned.
And called her queen of all my hopes an
called myself her knight,
And boldly vowed for Lilly Bell the bases
foe to fight.
For Lilly Bell for Lilly Bell.
o. all The flowers seemed lilly bells in those
glad golden days,
And all the brooks sang Lilly Bell along thei
their winding ways,
Laden with dreams of Lilly Bell the laushin!
breezes came,
The silver echoes only rang the mellow
music name
OfLnly Bell, sweet Lilly Bell.
Cold winter now is in the sky, chill inter In
my heart; a--
wander by the silent brook, and muse and
sigh apart,
The wild winds whispering through the tree:
in weird murmers tell.
The story of the lilly bells and of my Lilly
Bell,
Ny Lilly Bell, lost Lilly Bell.
That king whose lance no knight may breal
whose love no queen denied
Black plumed. upon his feet white steed
hora off my honnv hrida.
He gathered all the lilly bells an6 bount
around her brow;
feel there are no flowers for me in all til,
wide world now.
No lilly bells, no Lilly Bell.

Signing the Pledge.

A man long noted for intemperat
habits was induced by the Rev. JOIN
Abbott to sign the pledge, sin hi
own way which he did in thes,
words:
Il pledge myself to drink no intox
icating drinks for one year.
Few believed he would keep it
but near the end of the year he again
appeared at temperance meeting
without having touched drop
Are you going to sign again2
asked Mr.. Abbott.
Yes replied he, 'if can do it il
my own way
And accordingly he signed the
pledge for ninety nine years.
.And it, said he, Il live to thai
time it is my intention to take out 9
life lease -
"A few days after, he called on the
tavern keeper, who welcomed hin
back to his old haunts.
ri0h, landlord, said he, as If in
pain, q have such a lump on my
side
That's because yon have stopped
drinking said the landlord. you
won't live long if you keep on
will drink take that lump away"
Yes, and if you dont't drink
you'll soon have lump on the othel
side. Come, let's drink together,
and he poured out two glasses o.
whisky.
4 reckon / won't drink said the
former inebriate, especially, if keep
ing the pledge will bring another
lump, for it isn't very hard to beal
after ALL and with this he drew the
lump--a roll of greenbacks from his
side pocket, and walked Off, leaving
the landlord to his reflections.

STRIKE THE KNoT.-'Strike the
knott said a gentleman one day to
his son, who, tired and weary, was
leaning on his axe over log which
he had in vain been trying to cleaye
Then, looking at the log, the gentle
man saw how the boy had hacked
and Clipped all round the knot with
out hitting it. Taking the axe, he
struck a few sharp blows on the knot
and split the log without difficulty
Smiling, he returned the axe to his
son saying:
always strike the knott
That was good advice. 1t is good
for you, my children, as it was fol
the boy to whom it was first given
1t is a capital maxim to follow wheI
you are in trouble. Have you got tt
face difficulty? Have you a HARD
sum to do at school? Are you leav
ing home to live for the first time
among strangers2 Strike the knot
Look your trouble in the eye, as tn,
bold lion hunter looks in the face o
q lion. Never shrink from a painfu
duty, but step right up to it, and lt
it. Yes, strike the-knotrl Strike tn,
knot, boys and girls. and you vii
always conquer your difficulties.

SELF OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES an un.

SELF DKPENDENcE.-Many an un.
wise parent works hard, and lives
sparingly all his lite for the purpose
of leaving enough to give his children
a start in the world, as it is called.
Settling q young man aaoat with
money left him by his relatives, is
like tying bladder under the arms
of one who cannot swim, ten chances
to one he will lose his bladders and
go down to the bottom. Teach him
to swim, and he will not need the
blsdders. Give your child good
education. See to it that his morals
are pure, his mind cultivated. and
his whole nature made subservient
to the laws which govern man, and
you will..have given what will be of
more value than the wealth of the
Indies. You have given him a start
which 70 misfortune can deprive him
of. The earlier you teach him to
depend upon his own resources and
the blessing of God, the better.

An individual named Stanhope. in
England, in order to test his wife g
love, hung his effigy. The old lady
took the matter quietly, told her
daughter to go four blocks to the
shoemaker for the loan of sharp
knife to cut him down, and regretted
that he had spoiled a new clothes
line. At this the living husband,
who had lain concealed in a closet,
jumped out, called the woman 'con-
founded Jezebel,' clasped her in an
unloving embrace, and at last &C.
