from thegreat national Authorization

derangement-the everlasting princi-
pies of human liberty will arise re-
invigorated, rs in 1900, in the days of
Jefferson, and the spirit of Democracy
will once more reign, as the dews of
Heaven, only to protect, invigorate
and exalt the people. An honest
Republican government, and great
this is Democracy. A strong central
lied government, rotten to the core,
and weak, knee-bending people
this Is Radicalism.

The Airless Moon.

Among the illusions swept away by
modern science was the pleasant fancy
that the moon was habitable globe, like
the earth, its surfance diversified with
seas, lakes, continents. and islands, aud
varied forms of vegetation. Theologians
and suUonts eravely discussed the pro
liabilities Of lis being inhabited by a race
of sentiment beings, with forms and iacul-
ties like our own, and even propOunded
schems for opening communication with
them, in case they existed One of those
was to construct on the broad hig HANDS
of Asia series of geometrical figures on
a seal so gignatic as to be visible from
our planetary neishbor, on the supposi
ton that the moon people would recognize
the object. and Immediately construct
similar figures in reply Extravagant and
absurd as it may appear in the light of
modern knowledge, the establishment of
this Terrestrial aud Lunar Signal Service
Bureau was treated as feasible scheme
although practical difficulties which so of

The man departed aud the Doctor resum

The Doctor. in the course of the after

while in session When he entered the
room, to his astonishment, he saw the
small pox man sitting in a corner as com
rlacently as could be, waiting for favor
able opportunity to lay his case and claiui
before the Board The members of the
Board were busily engaged in the pcrfor

A Baby given Away.

The Belvidere Journal Of last week
says the through train to Kensington. on
the Belvidere Division of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, on last Friday morning,
after leaving Belvidere, was boarded by
"a respectable looking ard well at,ired
lady having in her possession beautiful.
bright-eyed baby. The conduct of the
woman toward the babe while en route to
Kensiugton was of the most tender aud
affeefonate character. When the train
reached its destination, the woman, with
the child in her arms, entered the depot
She remained there for some length of
time, and during her stay. entered into
conversation with lady-the wife of a
prominent Philadelphia lawyer. Among
ohter things, she informed the lady that
she would give her the baby under Ger
tain conditions. viz that the donor nor
the receiver should ask any questions
The Philadelphia lady stated that she
expected her husband in a few moments,
and If, upon his arrival, he was willing,
she would accept the gift, and feel very
grateful for it, The husband came, aud
like all other husbands, looked upon the
innocent child and loved it, lie gave
his consent. aud then and there the sup
posed mother of the child parted with il
perhaps forever She remained in the
city until Saturday afternoon, when she
bought ticket for Phillipsburg, aud
came as lar as the Junction. where she
got off the train, Saturday evening Who
she was, or where she belonged it was
impossible to ascertain, and the parentage
of the child is wrapped in mystery 1t
is supposed that the woman's object in
visiting Philadel phia was to place the
child in the Foundling's Home, at that
place. Fortunately however, for the
little one, the Lawyers wife fell deeply
in love with it, aud adopted it as her own
Taken altogether, it was a very strange
proceeding, the like OF which we have
never heard before.
