duty, and were disposed to fold their
arms and leave matters to- take their
old course, forgetting that the same
influences which before eliminated in
enormous abuses are still actively at
work, and will ultimately bring about
another state of things just as bad,
unless prevented by perpetual vigilance.
The men who get their living by
politics are ever on the alert for oppor>
,unities they make 1t their business to
manage the Political machine, and are
ready to ride the hobby of reform,
or any other hobby which will
serve their purpose.
And this is not peculiar to New
York city--in all the country districts
such men are at work and in both city
aud country they expect to bring out
candidates for the Legislature Of their
own liking.
How is this to be prevented? will
be asked. Nominate good men, and
the people will elect them,' says some
worthy soul, and he seems to think he his
settled the whole question.
Not long since an excellent retired
clergyman wrote, in answer to the
question: "a City Charter, and how
to get it" as follows "Call City
Conuention, and let them make it.
The simplicity of the reply was almost
amusing. The idea never seemed to
enter his head that any but the purest
and most dis;nterested patriots would
compose tn t Convention, the members
of which would have to be chosen by
the same influences which have for
years past sent such delegations to the
Legislature as, with here and there an
exception, were disgrace to the city.
Nominate good men Yes; but
how Not simply by publishing their
names in the papers. The men who
are elected are usually nominated in
private long before the party Coventions
meet. They nominate themselves for
the purpose of carrying out their own
schemes of aggrandizement. They are
nominated by those who wish to make
tools of them for their selfish purposes /;
and when a Convention meets it all
seems to be spontaneous movement,
whereas every man does just what he
has been directed to do, and the
schemes of corrupt politicions move on
like oiled machinery, and no one sees
the power that controls them. The
wires were oil laid long beforehand
and are pulled by skilled hands. Good
men must see to it that good men are
talked about as candidates before the
Conventions meet, and that they are
spoken to as candidates Good men
must combine to make their influence
felt. They must resist the blandlsh
ments of mere politicians, aud make
their power felt by prompt and
decisive action. They must combine
ana hold public meetings, in which the
proper officers shall preside and proper
speakers be heard. Their combined
power, if they will only unite and insis
upon their influence being felt, will il
many, if not in all cases turn the seal,
in favor of the right candidates fo
Office.

apthy of various officials concerned
in the matter, they can remain here
in safety.
To show the violence of the persecution
against little Joseph, and the
determination on the part Of his enimies
to obtain possession of his person, o
card has been circulated among the
various laborers and keepers of Central
Park, offering a reward Of $50 for his
capture. To their credit it may be said,
however, they have refused to accept
the bribe, and Joseph still remains in
safe hands TO become witness as soon
as the authorities need him.
Joseph, however is not the only
child, who is in trouble and needs
protection. There are thousands in this
city just as destitute of friends and legal
protection as he is, but unfortunately
they cannot be helped by private
enterprise. The following advertisements
all of which have appeared in the
daily papers of this city, will show
the impunity with which this inhuman
traffic is carried on, aRd the utter
disregard the padroni have for
American law:
"Thirty dollars reward will be paid
for the return to their parents two
Italian boys, Joseph Cherob, aged
eleven, and Frank Briglia, aged seven;
both play the violin. Chorob has fair
hair, thin face, cut in upper lip, blue
eyes, corduroy jacket, black outside

BrigIia has black hair, round, plump
face, black eyes, small teeth, cut on

gray pants. Both boys had on winter

Briglia, No. As Crosby street, New

II will be seen that bothboys are
described as having cit on their upper
lip. This circumstance led to an
i1gestigs ton, and it has been discovered
that but few Of the boys are without q
brand Of some kind by which they car
be recognized.
Many of them wore a diagonal cut
on either the right or left side of The

made and sewed up again in a rough
manner, so that the scar will Away,

readily faken as the result of al

masters cannot be branded alike, many
will be found to bear the marks

or other parts of their bodies, and b.
this they are recognized. Thu

SIN-WHAT IS ITe


|
It is sinful to do what we know, or
belive, to be wrong; as, for instance, to
lie, to steal, to slander. It is sin to
deceive or mislead another to his harm
There are many sorts, varieties, and
phases of sin, besides those indicated
in the Ten Commandments. We regard
it a sin to commit excesses in eating
in drinking, or in doing anything
which will impair the health of the
body, affect the mind injuriously, OF
dwarf the moral or spiritual sensibilities
Through dissipation one become the
parent Of an imbecile or an IDIOT. BY
transmitting consumptlve tendencies to
offspring, or by transmitting scrofulous
diseases, palpable wrong is done, aud
suferingis induced. Is not this sinful !
Preachers eonfine their rebukes to
what may be called moral sin,
seldom coming right down to our
physical transgressions, such as over
eating, drinking, chewing, smoking,
dosing, and drugging, which are among
the chief causes Of our most serious
SHINING.
Let us look at these things as they
are. We sin against the laws oI
health when we breath old and fetid
air, such as is confined in school house
public halls, churches and even private
dwelling houses. We sin when WI
gormandize or eat more than we need
when we rob ourselves or others o
necessary sleep when We over.ax the
minds of children, rendering them
precocious aud sickly; when We lac,
so tightly that we contract our lung
and impair health when we spoil ou
feet, producing corns, bunions, ETC., by
| tigh boots when we cause headache
BIZ great wads of false hair, or by all
tight hats; when we 60 to extremes il
