ative character of our Government
what have we left but Imperialism ?"
| Very pertinent questions, especially
in view of the fact that the friends of
Imperialism feel themselves to be so
strong that they can start and sustain
a paper advocating change from the
Republic to an Empire. Mr.. MANS
FIELD closes his protest against the
Fifteeath Amendment by saying:
defended the constitutional
right of the National Government to
maintain the unity by the exercise of
the war power; and l defended the
constitutional right of Congress to re-
sist the usurpation of the Executive ;
but neither of these include or gives
the least right to strike at the organic
structure of the States we are now at
peace; and why should we not enjoy
fruits of peace by avoiding all dis
turbing questions, and seeking to
strengthen the permanent fO undations
of the Government 2"
Mr.. MANSFIELD sees clearly that the
effect of all such amendments is to de-
stroy the organic structure of the
States, and that when the federatiye
character of the Government is des-
troyed we shall have nothing left but
Imperialism. There are but two ways
by which so vast an extent of
country as is embraced within the
United States, and with such diversi-
fed interests, can be governed: One,
by the old JEFFERsoNIAN and States
rights plan and the other by an EN-
pire, The more we diverge from the
first, the nearer we get to the second.
The past eight years have witnessed
the removal of many of the founda-
ton stones upon which was built our
JEFFERsoNIAN republican form of
Government. It is now in a tottering
condition, and Imperialism is alread Y
stretching out its iron hands to over
throw the structure, and put in its
place the Imperator.

Why DO NOT OUR TEETH LAST OH
LIFE TINE ?-That they are made a,
perfect, if the right materials are fur
nished, there cannot be doubt.
But are the necessary elements fur.
nished to children as they are thu
young of other animals ? And do we
not subject our teeth to deleterious in.
fuences from which animals that obey
their natural instincts are exempt?
The forming young of other ami
mails, while dependent on the mother
get lime and phosphorus, and potash
aud slick, and all the other elements OF
which teeth are composed, from the
blood or milk ofthe mother, and she
gets them from the food which nature
provides containing these elements in
their natural proportions.
But where can the child in its form
ing state get these necessary elements
whose mother lives principally on
starch, and butter and sugar, neither
OF which contains particle of lime,
phosphorus. potash or silex? Nature
performs no miracles. She makes
teeth as glass is made, by combining
the elements which compose them ac-
cording to her own chemical princi-
pies. And this illustration is the
more forcible because the composition
of the teeth and of glass is very
nearly identical-both; at least, requir-
ing the composition of silex with some
alkaline principle.
Ii, then, then the mother of an un-
born or nursing infant lives on white
bread and butter, pastry and confec-
Clonary, which contain no slick, and
little of the other elements which
compose the teeth, nothing short of a.
miracle can give her child good teeth,
and especially with teeth well saam
eled.
But what articles Of food will make
sooo teeth . sccod milk will make
svou s'' IN, for it makes them for
Ives. Good meat will make good
teeth, for it makes them for lions and
wolves. Good vegetables and fruit
make goedsteeth, for they make them
for monkeys. "a,
Good corn, oats, barley, wheat, rye,
and indeed, everything that grows,
i will make good teeth if eaten in their
natural state, no elements being taken
out; for every one of them does make
good teeth for horses, sheep, or some
other animal. But starch, sugar, lard
or butter will not make good teeth
You tried them all with your child's

MIND NEVER STATIoNARY.-The
human mind is never stationary when

THE coLUMBUs FAMILY.


It is curious fact that there are no
known descendants of Christopher
Columbus left on earth. He had two
sons, one of whom, Don Diego, rose
to distinction as an Admiral, and the
other, Fernando, as scholar. Fer
nando was a great traveller. He not
only thrice visited America, but sub
sequently traversed the whole of Eu-
rope, and almost every accessible por-
ton of Asia and Africa. He appears
to have been profound scholar, and
q thoroughly good man. In his will
he stipulated that his library, contain
ing twenty thousand copies, which he
gave to the Cathedral of Seville,
should be free to the people, and SO it
is to this day. From books in this
collection the late Washington Irving
obtained considerable portion of the
information on which his &c Life of
Columbus was founded. The fol-
lowing quaint epitaph, almost oblit-
Grated by time, appears upon the ta-
bic which marks the site of his tomb: !:
What doth it profit me to have
sprinkled the whole world with my
sweat; to have three times crossed to
to the new world discovered by my
father; to have embellished the shore
of the tranquil Guadalquiver and pre-
ferred my simple tastes rather than
riches; or that I have assembled
round three divinities from the sourc-
es of the Castalia and offer to thee the
riches gathered by Ptolemy if, pass
ing in silence over his stone, thou
shouldst fail to address a single, salu-
tation to my fathers memory, or to
myself slight remembrance ?''
