THE REVOLT.

1t must be Il source of regret to our
Seymour friends, that in the midst of
the confusion which is so painfully
evident in their camp, the distinguished
editor of the La Crosse Democrat
should allow his fears to obscure his
wisdom. There is divine sentiment
which assures us that "a house divided
against itself cannot stand" and it is
only with the greatest reluctance that
We entertain fear that his indiscretion
has arisen from an Ignorance of this
precept. This of course he is familiar
with the source from which the quota
ton is made--not doubt of it. Our
advice In the matter is entirely gratui-
tous, but perhaps we may be pardoned
for suggesting to this red hot" editor,
that in obedience to that proposition
he should withdraw his recently pro-
nounced antagonism to the sensitive
gentlemen of his party, and realize that
his present position will be disastrous
to its peace. But if we can credit his
assertions he is determined to seek the
narrow way to Democratic happiness
if he has to travel the road alone. We
might also recommend an occasional
perusal Of the scriptures, as a guard
against future errors of this kind, and
the hope that it may reveal hestriking
analogy between the firing title which
this gentleman has assumed, and the
fate of such as depart from the paths of
rectitude.

which enjoins certain duties upon all

STRIPS" replace the missing panes of
glass, repair his pavement if it requires
it, wrap his gas meter snngly up in
straw and carpet, and generally takes
other precautions to make his home
comfortable, and economize coal and
doctors bills. These are the material
suggestions OF October. These are
moral suggestions quite necessary to
be needed. The winter season is the
opportunity of charity. Hundreds,
perhaps thousands of men and women
who read this article, have stored away in
their closets and attics many pieces of
cast off clothing that would save some
poor fellow creature from suffering,
perhaps from death, when bitter cold
weather sets in. Let all these articles
be sorted out now, and given to the
first needy applicant whose honesty is
assured-or sent to some one OF the
numerous charitable institutions which

fold the price the old-clothes man would
have given you for your cast-off raj
