TULGARIfl.
BY MRS. L. r. JANIS.

You shrink from the repulsive title,
7 Not less co VIC, but We shrink infinitely
more from the facts thet suggest it.
While we deprecate the necessity for so
11ing, We use the word vulgar in its gen
rally accepted sense, not common, but
u%nelcan.
'Pludishness! SquirmishneSs! some
body cries. "Let these things regulate
themselves. Beys aud men are expected
to be vulgar
Is it desirable to fulfil this high,mInded
expectation? When a rare and excep.
tional disappointment occurs in this quar-
ter, is the world the worst for it? Be-
sides, how many men aud boys would like
to'be described by this obnoxious adjec>
tive? You say, awe have to call things
by their Dames.' In the name of all
that, is pure, is our mother-tongue SO bar
rem that we must 60 back to the language
Of heathcnism to make ourselves under.
stood? And does the use Of right, we'll
chosen words, when occasion requires,
ever cause titterings, guilty looks and OBJ
scene associations? Mothers hear ME F!
Is it necessary for our boys in their earlier
years to be contaminated? What is the
result Of vulgar words? Nothing less than
deeds that correspond. Can We consent
to these? Then let us awake! Eternal
vigilance is the price OF purity. Where
do cur children learn all this? Surely
not from US. We do not use expressions
/ trust, that we would be unwilling to
hear repeated by the little lips that give
us their goodnight kiss.
Fathers. bear with me. Is your con-
science clear? Are you willing that
sour boys should talk exactly as you
talk?
How arc our children first led into this
dangerous and disgusting way?
"Oh its natural. They learn it from
other children and servants"
Arc lying and stealing less sinful for
being natural? AS for "other children
aud their parents, have we true christian
courage, if VIC let instances of this kind
pass u~nrebuked, and unreported or un'
.cbided in our own?
Let servants understand that unless
their conversation be yea, yea, nay nay.
they cannot abide under your roof.
but you say, "this sin is so subtle. eve
rybody is sly about it, and We cant help
it,"
What further proof need VIC that this
1'cometh OF evilY' Sly, yet bolder than
you think, sometimes. What are those
little boys whispering about in church?
Did you believe this sin could invade
the s%acrcdness of the sanctuary? Often
is this the case, and shall we wink at it?
God forbid.
May He who commands us to be pure,
even as lie is pure, help US ell, fathers,
mothers and Sabbath School teachers,
'ccurageously to fight this fearful foe!-

A meeting of the Democratic members
of the Illinois Legislature was held re-
Gently to decide what has become of the
Democratic organization, and what they
would do with it. Resolutions were re-
ported declaring that it was practically
defunct, having been associated with so
many issues, as to be no longer useful or
practicable. While their consideration was
pending, Governor Hendricks, ot Indi-
ana, happened" along. and changed the
feeling of the meeting from dependency
to faint glimmer Of hope. In bis opin-
ion, 5000. 600 of Democratic voters con-
stltute too strong party to disband. He
thought it better TO wait and hope little
longer. The meeting adjourned without
a vote and postponed the intended burial.
Commenting upon the meeting, the Chi
cago Tribune recognizes very familiar
acquaintance in the 8, 000, 900 voter argu-
ment, and says: 1--WE venture to predict
that whatever he or the members of the
legislature may do, there will be no Dem
ocratic party in the field of Illinois poll
tics next fall"
We win see when the time comes. The
present indications are that the Anti
Monopolists Of that State will enter the
lists, prepared to fght all comers. as they
did in California, Wisconsin and Kansas.

Senator Brownlow's Republican ortho-
doxy is not to be questioned any more
than that of the cute Thad Stevens, nor
Charles .Sumner. 1t will be profitable
therefore for his followers to read his
opinions on the above topic as expressed
in letter to the Knoxville Chronicle from
which the following is an extract,
1t should be remembered that the col
ored race, thoIgh large in numbers, con
stitute very small majority Of the whole
people of the United States. However
strongly united, they have no power to
compel concessions from the whites.
Whatever they get must come as the free
gift from the whites. 1t Is, therefore,
the part of wisdom upon The part of the
colored people of Tennessee To be careful
upon insisting upon that which can do
no pracricle good to either race, but l.
sure to bring disaster and ruin to the
most useful institution of modern times
free schools. Let the colOred people
Of Tennessee ask Congress t" desist from
any legislation which enforces mixed
