Court his petition in writing, making applica-
ton for license to sell certain real estate Of
the said Luther C. Brown, situated in this

reason that the sale of said real estate is
necessary, because the personal estate OF the

but it was feeble and powerless to
prevent or to check these evils, and
therefore, for whatever there is of evil
in the Government to-day we are not
responsible. There are but two great
parties, and there eau only be two

The American people to-day have
withdrawn from the Republican party
and put their faith and reliance in the
Democratic party. The people have
said you have been deprived of power,
and now we restore you to power
give you control of the Government,
believing that your professions will
be kept. We believe, powerless as
you have been to effect good, you have
shown your desire to throttle evil. You
have shown your professions for the
right we take you at your word, and
we trust you once more with the gov.
eminent Of the country. And yet,
joyful and grateful as am at the re-
suit ofthe elections, l still look for
ward with anxiety lest the party in
the flush of its triumph may forget
the conditions under which the power
was rendered to us, and the conditions
under which it can only be held and
consolidated for the good of the entire
country and for the generations that
are to come after us.

SPIRIT OF THE AGE
Wednesday, hvo. 10, 1874.

THE NEXT Session OF CoNGREss
will be an exceedingly perilous one
Tor the Republican party. All the
hungry jobs and steals will assert
their claims with great vigor and cum
ming, and as about one hundred and
fifty Congressman will be serving
their last term, the temptation to ac-
cept brides will be unusually seduct-
i've with the weaker ones For every
dishonest scheme that is passed the
Republican party will be held respon-
sible, and at q time, too, when it will
be less able to prevent their success
than at amy time since 1862.

THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a
circulation of over seventy thousand comics.
Its readers are found in every Stale and
Territory, and its quality IL well known IN
the public. We shall not only endeavor to

prove and add to its variety and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be
a thorough newspaper. All the news OF the

The Agricultural Department is a promin-
ent feature in the WEEKLY SUN, and its
articles will always be found fresh and use.
full to the farmer.
The number of mel independent in politics
is increasing, and the WEEKLY SUN is
their paper especially. 1t belongs TO no
party, anu ODeyS no ulctatlOn, cOntendlng for
principle, snd for the election of the bet men.
1t exposes the corruption that disgraces the
country and threatens the overthrow of re-
publican institutions. 1t has no fear of
knaves, and seeks no favor from their sup
porters
The mar kets Of every kind andthe fashions
are regularly reported in its columns.

Our worthy Democratic brother,
Gov. Hendricks, of Indiana, called up
on President Grant a few days ago,
and had brief interview with him.
.Jocular illusions were made to the re-
cent elections. and the President re-
marked that the Atlantic on the East
and Pacific on the West were the on
ly obstacles to the longer sweep and
swell of the tidal wave. The Indiana
Governor says that he pledged him
selflong ago not to be candidate
for United States Senator, and express
ses a longing for the practical pursuits

The ever-increasing circulation Of this ex

ton to popular desires and needs. Indeed,
when we think into how many homes it
penetrates every month, we must consider it
as one eff the educators as well as entertainers
of the public mind, for Its vast POPULARITY has
been won by no appea! to stupid preiudices
or depraved tastes-Boston Globe.
The character which this Magazine poss-
esses for variety, enterprise, artistic wealth,
and literary culture that has kept pace with,
if it has not led the times, should cause its
conductors to regard it with justifable COM

commenting upon the wonderful
change of opinion which had It's eX-
preston in the recent election, the
Martinsburg (West VirginiO States
man extends assurances on the part OF
the South that are as practical, loyal
and sincere as they should be wei
come. 1t charges the manufacturing
States will having by their own act in
the past helped to destroy II chief
market for their goods, and there is
nothing left for them but "to admit
it unequivocally and set about mend
ing matters as quietly as possible.
Not by reinstating slavery" for the
people are now ''rid Of the incubus
and every man South is thankful for
it. Every true Southern man would
be as quick to enlist in preserving at
the cannon's mouth the status result
ing from the civil contest as the most
loyal Of Northern citizens All we
ask is 70 be permitted to govern our
selves locally in our own way without
Federal interference, precisely as the
people of Massachusetts or any other
Northern State does at the present
moment As to the negro, he is
looked upon as free man among us,
and it is our bounden duty as well as
for our interest to make him a good
citizen, by giving him every means to
educate himself, as to exercise intelli-
gently the duties which the condition
of citizenship imposes That this
spirit is not exceptional there has been
abundant proof all over the country,
and the most positive evidence is the
growing utilization of the more intel
ligent negroes with the Conservative
clement in the South. The promise
now is sure and steadfast that the
North and South are to clasp hands
again, but with greater warmth and
sincerity than ever before.
