The Political situation.

The political situation from the
standpoint Of 1916 to 1851 would be
contemplate; from any standpoint
since it has an agreeable contempla-
tion. The democracy are witnessing
the disintegration Of party once SO
powerful that none dared question
its behests. so strong that few doubt
ed but it would achieve domination
in tho western continent. either in
the form of an oligarchy. or failing
10 that, changing the form Of our
government to an Imperialism, as its
essence il already changed.
But to-day Of its own weight and
-.ettsnnsss it is separating and crum-
sling to pieces, even the cohesive
power of public plumber that held it
together during the last presidential
election having lost its "sticky"
properties. The seeds of dissolution
have for some time been vide sown,
and are now taking deep root in the
radical ranks. The military career
Of General Grant bad inspired the
hope that be would be the president
Of the people and not faction Of
souless extremists, but that hope
has not yet been realized, and those
whs cannot swallow every nauseating
dose presented, and those that are
tired Of the lrutalising cruelty and
injustice practiced toward the people
Of the South. have determined that
II there is no hope from radicalism
other than~h congress and the ad-
ministration have yet shown, they
must a. means Of hope and relief,
east their fortunes with the democra-
cy.
In the South there is no democrat

- hostile to tho administration and
ito policy as are the northern democ-
racy. There the refined and cultiya-
ted are the mere slaves of adventures
who never had either q social or =
moral standing ia the community
which they left for its good. Under
this condition Of things. so unbeara-
hle has the tyranny become, that the
intelligent Of tho ruling party there
feel their manhood degraded and de-
based to longer allow this unspeaka-
BILE wickedncss to exist, and unless

Isaac NcwtOn's COurtship.

Sir Isaac Newton was urged by one
Of his friends to marry, but he excused
himself by saying that he had no time
10 court wife. His friends said they
you'd assist him by sending to his
apartment woman ofs worth. He
thanked them for theil offer, and prom.
iscd to receive visit from her. His
friends applied to the woman and re
quested her TO dispense with the usual
ceremonies Of courtship and wait on
the philosopher, which she consented
to do. When she went to his apart.
mcnt, and produced her letter of rec
ommeIdation, he received it politely,
filled and fired his pipe, and sat down
by her side, took hold Of her hand, and
convesed on the subject. Before they
had brought the point to close, some
question about the magnitude of the
heavenly bodies stuck his mind with
such force that he forgot what he was
about-hc turned his eyes up to heav-
en-, took his pipe out of his mouth with
his left hand, and, being lost in study,
without design took the lady's left hand
which he held in his own, and with one
Of her fingers crowded the tobacco il
the bowl of his pipe, and held it so long
that her heart as well as her finger took
fire, and she, in u huff, sprang up ant
went off, leaving the philosopher tc
finish bis study alone.

The Pennsylvania courts have de-
cided that in cases Of suits against rail.
roads for damages, the accident itself
shall be taken as evidence Of neglec.
on the palt of the road. The compa-
ny must, if it can, prove the contrary
whether the accident arises from de-
fects of engines, cars or rails, or from
acts of employees. The adoption Of
such rule generally will be likely to
lessen the number of accidents by
making the bills for damages much
larger.
