1879 THE WORLD. 1879

A new political era is opening be-
fore the country.
The negro-cyclc of our politics has
rounded to its conclusion through civil
war, social violence, industrial disord
err, and has ended in giving freedom to
four millions of the negro race, and the
ballot to its adult males.
The old order changcth, yielding place to new.
The politics of this new era will come
home to every mans business and
bosom as never before, being vital to
private prosperity and the maintenance
of Democratic Republic
For not only are the manifold en-
croachments OF Federalupo State pow
ers and Of both upon the large liberty of
American treemen now as always to be
repealed with ceascless vigilance not
only is home rule or local self
government now rs always to be main
tanned for the best guarantee of civil
liberty and Of national greatness, but
besides, the victories Of peace which
are to give splendor to the new politi-
cal era must be won against every
advantage which even enemies of free
institutions could desire or possess.
4 gigantic debt, which the honor of
the country is pledged to pay, en-
cumbcrs all our industries with its OPP
pressiye burden. Nevertheless our
system Of Municipal and State Taxa
ton are crude unequal, and defraud
the poor to release the rich. Never
less our system of Federal Taxation is
such an Infamous masterpiece of iGuor
ance and incapacity, put to the vile
uses of monopoists and iavorites and
thieves, as never anywhere has dis.
graced modern civilization since Louis
XIV, with his methods of taxation
rather than lis amount, paraIyzed the
industries OF France. And along with
the Tariff, when prohibits the export
of our manufactures, abridges the
number of our industries, cuts down
the profit upon the exports from all our
farms, plantations, and miEcs abolish
es our shipping from off the high seas,
and flches s. from the peoples peck
cts every time it puts 81 into the L, s.
Treasury,-along with this engine of
oppression, stupidity, aud fraud goes
Currency Of huctuating value as the
measure Of vaucs in every act OF do
nestle exchange.
Whatever parties may arise or fall,
whatever their defeats or trumphs,
and whatever their names, The WORLD
now and always will remain the I'M
flinchiog champion OF a
LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY.
whereof Freedom defended and defined
by Justice, is the poar-star.
As q Vehicle Of Ne,cS, The WORLD
will spare no expense, no energy, to
maintain and advance its place in the
first rank OF metropolitan Journals
Its fresh, abundant, various, and ac-
curate news, comprising the whole
circle OF current intelligence and liter
allure, will be discussed as become a
Tustnothy Orga, Of Opinion, with
candor, with steady devotion to sound
public and private morals, with special
knowledge for special themes, aud with

sion of the manifold interests of men

Christmas Carol.

A star came down to earth,
And told wondrous story
OF One who dwells in heaven above,
In light, and love, and glory
1t was the Star of Bethlehem
That told the wondrous story
1t was His Father, full of love,
Who dwelt in light and glory.
At Christmas. tide the star came down,
And rested in manger
And wise men Fl ON the East bowed low
Before the heavenly stranger.
They came by night to worship him
OF whom the phrophets told
They brought him costly gifts of myrrh,
Aud frankincense, and gold.
And Jesus was the strangers name
A star Of rarest worth
The God of love His Father was
A star of royal birth.
"Peace-peace on earth; good will to men,
This was the wondrous story;
This was the boon the Star brought down
From out His Fathers glory.
Let every living thing give praise,
The earth be filed with holy mirth,
Since God and man are reconciled,
And Peace has come to dwell on earth.
Ye Christmas bells, ring m errily.
And loudly swell the Christmas song:
Take up the strain, ye saints above,
And our glad anthems there prolong.

In choosing a warm dress, get it
light How lightly animals which have
to endure great cold are clothed! What
is lighter than feathers or fur? A bear
can teach us lesson of civilized science,
and a goose impart wisdom. When
you wish to be protected from wind
as well as cold, wear, under a wooden
or furry fabric, the thinnest impervious
texture you can get, paper, for in
stance, Then you have an arrangement
similar to that with which the animals
of cold climates are provided, namely,
thin skin and thick feathers or hair

Of the timein which it was adopted, is
that prohibiting Catholics from holding
