fact that the Machias Union had takeI
leave of the democratic party, or at leas
had raised the flag of rebellion. The tone
of its articles before the State Convention
and since are very significant. Before the
convention it advised making no nomna-
ton and disbanding the organization
since the convention its course corresponds
With its previous advice. indicating that it

old democratic party in Maine favored the
idea of making no nomination. Unfortunate

The men who favored the idea that there
was nothing else to do but to make nomi-

uiem that they bad no voters behind them.

Praying Monkeys.

from Lne bOblOu 0lOue'
Mans ancestry, the monkey, is still
receiving a great deal OF scientific con-
sideration. The important question
whether an apes cerebrum overlaps
his cerebellum, had been determined,
and it was found that turpentine gath
erers have opposable toes. Mr.. Darwin
settled the fact that the early progenl~
tors of man were once covered with hair,
both sexes having boards that their
ears were pointed and capable Of move
ment, and that their bodies were provid-
ed with a tail having the proper muscles.
All this, we cay, has been settled, but
man had not yet been sufficiently degrad.
ed he still possessed some intellectual
qualities which raised him above the
stationary ascidian; pro'essed a relig-
ion which separated him from the PEN
sive gorilla and the poetic chimpauzee.
Science was perplexed, its discipes
were in a quandary. At last a happy
alternative was reached if man could
not be lowered to the level of beasts,
animals might be lifted 10 the height Of
man. Humanity, it was true no longer
muuched thistles; but, on the other
hand, had not thistle eaters a soul :?
It is now claimed that monkeys have
a religious sentiment, and that they
pay great care to their dead. 1t seems
that somebody shot female monkey
and carried the body to his tent. Fifty
monkeys surrounded the tent, aud ex
pressed their emotions in the last Aryan
language. The sportsman, who hsd
undoubtedly been studying the Rosetta
stone, understood that his ancestors
were demanding their slain companion.
When this was given up, venerable
anthroporil philosopher took it into his
arms, as sorrowful expression stole
over his countenance. and bore it to his
companions. Mr.. James Forbes, who
relates this touching anecdote, opines
that the primative religion (the worship
OF our ancestors) is shared by the low
est ssvages and the highest apes. The
reasons for this conclusion are not
given, but this is no argument against
its truth. The scientific III" mere, as
elsewhere, covers . multitude OF stupid
i.ies. The scientific Il, by the way, is
the most useful and awe-ipspiring word
in the English language, aud is, more
over, the basis OF such modern theories.
Take the il away from natural selection
snd the theory ceases to be ofsny value;
man is no longer monkey, 8 monkey
is no longer an oyster. When Mr..
