Jaeobites and Jacobjus.

Everybody knows who the Jaeobtes were.
To one who has read Macaulay, at least, their
memory is not fragrant They were the pig.
headed Englishmen who insisted upon the res
toration of the Stuarts after the people of Great
Britain, failing to bring that effete race to rea
son by cutting off the head of one and Danish
ing another, kicked the whole of them over
the British Channel. To persons of logical
minds calling names is perhaps not quite so
convincing as a syllogism, but if Democrats
persist in applying unsavory epithets to their
opponent, they will find that it is a weapon
that can be used quite as effectively on the
other side. The Jacobns were a rather unre-
generate race, it is true, but it is also true that
they tore down, albeit throughout bloodshed
and violence, the most unrighteous aristocracy
that ever had its heal on the necks of a people
The original Jacobins were what the aristoc-
racy had made them-ignorant and cruel The
modern Jacobins, for SO their opponents are
pleased to call the adherents of the Radical
party, are neither ignorant nor cruel, but full
of intelligence and tender mercy They do not
need to propagate the doctrine of liberty, fra
ternity and equality by making use of the gull
lotine. They never have put on the red cap or
carried royalist trebeD heads about on the
ends of pixies. They are not usually of the
sans culotte fraternity, but wear as decent
trousers as other men.
The Jacobites want to restore the American
Stuarts-the Southern aristocracy The Al
mighty by at least dozen well-defned and
several commandments has forbidden it. The
ownership of man by man is no part of the
Christian philosophy, which is thoroughly dem
ocratic. The oppression of the poor is not
countenanced in the ten commandments or
by the Sermon on the Mount Your modern
Jacobin understands that such action is ex-
pressly forbidden, and since the poverty and
helplessness of the freedmen is the only reason
given by the Jacobites for keeping them in a
condition of serfdom, your modern Jacobin, as
In duty bound, objects. He will forget and
forgive all the Jacobite sins against modern
civilization-forget and forgive the slaughter
OF million of his brethren-forget and forgive
the waste of treasure and blood-but consent
to the restoration of the Southern Stuarts to
unrestricted dominion-never! ffas

WHIRLwIND AND WATERsPoUT.-Last Sun
day afternoon, about 5 o'clock, during severe
thunder storm, whirlwind passed over Har-
rison and across Anonymous Pond. When
it struck the pond it took the water up to
about the height of one hundred feet, the col
umn being about thirty or forty feet in dame
ter. 1t travelled diagonally across the pond
in this fashion distance of two miles, and
would have been tough customer for such
vessels at least as navigate our fresh water
lakes, to encounter. After leaving the pond
it amused itself by tipping over few good
sized trees, several fences, and laying down
corn and grain altogether too early in the sea-
son to suit the convenience Of the farmers. It
was said that in crossing road it took up an
unfortunate pedestrian and tossed him over
into an adjoining field.
What became OF it after it left that vicinity
we do not know, but we presume Mr.. Seward
will be after it to put with his collection.

exceedingly suspicious for the success of the
exhibition. The agricultural interest has been
held by force of circumstances so long in abey-
ance that the farmers and stock-raisers Of

and competition with something of the eager
ness of a revival period. The action of Col. 7

in concluding to merge his proposed Horse
