The ALARM CLocK.-A lady who found
it difficult to awake so early as she desired
in the morning, purchased an alarm clock.
This kind of clock is 80 contrived as to
strike with a very loud, whizzing noise at
any time the owner pleases. The lady
placed the clock near her bed, and at the
appointed time she found herself effectually
arused by the rafting sound. She imme-
diately obeyed the summons, and felt the
better all day for her early rising. This
continued for several weeks. The alarm
clock faithfully performed it's Office, and
was distinctly heard, SO long as it was
promptly obeyed. But, after time, the
aSy grsI hy t6s o e"dy rising and
turned herself, and slept again. In few
days the clock ceased to rouse her from her
sitimbefs-It sPelse- lust as lotte4iy- ever,
but she did not hear it, because she had ac-
quired the habit of disobcying it. Finding
that She might as well be without an alarm
clock, she formed the wise resolution, that
if ever she heard the sound again, she
would jump up instantly, and she would
never allow herself to disobey tie friendly
warning.

SEcTARIAN PRosELYTIsM:ZCathol are
often reproached, even by those who do not
sympathize with the sectaries, because as
they allege, of super-sensitiveness regard
ing sending their children to public schools.
That Catholics are not singular in regard
ing these latter as proselyting establish
ments is now made apparent, for the Jews
have sounded the alarm, as will be seen by
the subjoined:
The attention of Jewish parents is called
by the Hebrew Messenger to the fact that
Christians are trying to proselyte Jewish
children by establishing for them free
school. 1t urges that messengers be ap.
pointed by the rabbis to note all children
who attend, to warn their parents, and, if
necessary, to expel them from the synago-
que.

No matter what the motive Of Senator

general Generalization as q politician, or
whether he desires that the closing portion
of his career shall he marked by true and
consistent devotion 10 the professions Of
tho last seven years-his speech in the

The whole legislation Of the republican
party since II has been 10 power has point
ed directly to the doctrine % avowsd by
Yate.--tha. congress has the right to reg
ulats and control suffrage in the states
in fact to direct and govern the domestic

gro suffrags will be forced upon the people
Of those states just 40 It is attempted TO Do
forced upon the people Of the south. IN
der the plea thst congress has rig Tito en-
force republican form Of government IN
svery state. the radicals would impsratively
declare that each state must allow the ne
proes to vote, the unanimous voice of the
White citizens to the contrary notwithstand

imaginea more unrspublican proceeding
than this bnt th,l omnant party has
prepared ~ for it, and there is no doubt.
whatever that, should that party be per-
must it come at last. Tho principale. if
We may call it 80, is fully reconstruction
measures which form the almost exclusive
record Of the war.
Mr.. Yates is CONSTANT aud logical. His
speech 10 not such - any one - be would
have made four or Ave years ago. and 10 not
calculated to add to his popularity among
bis partisans in Illinois; but its deductions
are sound, and We commend his. views to
