latest idea. It is to 0 certain extent
a wedd ng of Church and State, and
as such must be looked upon with
grave concern by every thoughtful
citizen. The power of church organi

country, and America may yet become

GEORGIA DEMOCRATIC!

Contrary to the expectations of
Democrats and to the utter discom-
future of the Radicals, Georgia last
week went Democratic by FORTY THOU
SAND majority, electing three-fourths
of the members OF the Legislature and
carrying at least five of the seven Con-
gressional Districts. This is indeed a
solid victory, and will be hailed with
delight by every lover of the true prin-
ciples of constitutional government in
the land. AS Georgia was not repre-
sented in either branch of the Con-
gress which is now closing, this victo-
ry will give us IN addition of two
Senators and five Congressman in the
next session, and will thus swell the
Democratic element at Washington in
to propositions which will effectually
restrain the Radicals from further in.
roads upon the Constitution and the
laws. This victory also insures us
another State in the Democratic para
myd for 1872, and adds to our previ
ously fattering prospects of electins
the next President and gaining politi
cal control of the House of Represent
atives in that year.
The Democracy surely have cause
to "reioice and be exceeding glad" a
the bright projects which the future
evidently has in store for our coun
Itry

ANOTHER VrcroRY.-On the 5th inst.
the Democracy carried Mobile, Ala
bama, by 1900 majority, completely
cleaning out the carpet-bag-radical-
nigger officials who had formerly held
high carnival upon the tax payers
money in that city. The work OF
ridding the Southern States of the
carpet-bag scallawags goes bravely on,
and ere long the "last of the Mohi-
cans will leave the happy hunting
grounds of the South to prey upon
those of his own ilk in Yankcedom.

why Is Lace Costly9

Many wonder why what is termed
real lace-as lace made by hand is
called, to distinguish 1t from that
made by machine, which is called
imitation--is so costly: The fol-
lowing paragraphs from a foreign
exchange explains this reason:
"The manufacture Of lace is carried
to its highest perfection in Belgium.
The finest specimen Of Brussels lace
Is 20 complicated rs to require the
labor of seven persons on one piece,
and each operative Is employed at
distinct features Of the work. The
thread used is Of exquisite fineness,
which, is spun In dark, underground
rooms. where it is sufficiently m DIST
to prevent the thread from sepa rat
ing.
1t is 40 delicate rs scarcely to be
seen, and the room Is SO arranged
that all the light admitted shall fall
upon the work. 1t il such material
that renders the genuine Brussels SO
costly. On a piece of Valencienncs
not two inches wide, from two to
three hundred bobbinsare sometimes
used, and for the larger widtl, MS
many as eight hundred on the same
pillow. The most valuable Valen.
ciennes Is determined BY the numter
OF times the b0bbins have been twist
ed In making the ground, the more
frequent the twists tho clearer and
more beautiful will be the lace.
Belgium annually sells Of this Lace
alone to the value Of over four mill
ions Of dollars. Chantilly laee Is
always black, andfs ,izel chiefly Tor
Wells and fj0unces. 1t il very fine,
and Is extensively worn. Mechlin
lace Is made ut M"chlin, antwerp,
and other localities"
