Is it because buryipg is steady, un-

wider margin of profit in coffins than in
other merchandise They ought, as
necessities of life, or rather, of death, to

does not the cost of modern sarcophagus,

THE REGISTRY LAW.

/ throned in power, than they COM
mence casting about for means by
which to perpetuate their unprinci-
pied rule. CONSPICUOUS among the
causes which sixteen years ago
relegated the Democracy to the
seclusion of private life, was the
passage Of registry law in most of
the States of the Union, whereby
honest elections were secured, and
/ the "vote carly and often" policy
terminated Who does not remem-
Der Capt. Rynder5 and his trained
company Of Democratic ruilians,
who ruled New York city with
whisky and bludgeons during the
administration of that reasonable
old imbecile, James Buchanan. And
as contemporaries and Democratic
co-workers with their patriots the
"Thugs" Of New Orleans, and the
Plug Uglies' Of Philadelphia and
Baltimore, with less conspicious ca
/ piILaries all over the country, were
! found rs Democrats and friends Of
the administration, and its repre-
sentatiyes III their respective haunts
of debauchery and crime.
The Democracy, under the alias
of REFORM" having a majority III
the Assembly Of this State, among
their first acts, acting on recon-
incubation in the Parkinson-Taylor
document, is to introduce and pass
through that body a bill to repeal
the registry law Of this State, which
has for more than decade past
secured to the people al honest
administration Of thcir affairs, and
oppressed no one except luiiians,
scalawags, bummers and dead-beats.
And but for the protection afforded
by Republican majority i'll the
Senate, this session Of the Legisla-
turc would see all memory OF this
beneiicent law effaccd from om
statute books, and the scalawags
turned loose with a carte b}aHche, tC
roam and riot without limitation
except to perpetuate the rule of the
Democracy and the Reformers sc
long as repeating" would tend tc
that result.
The Sentinel is pleased to observe
the timely and considerate action oI
the Republican majority of the Sen
ate, in determining to oppose the
repeal of the registry law. By theil
action this law will be preserved
and the purity of the ballot-boS
secured inviolate from the corrupt
touch of these Democratic refolmers
The people OF the state will never
realize Just how important this ac-
ton is to their highest interests til
darkness and Democracy shall some
day in the vast future hang like g
pail over the face OF the earth.--Ni

LATE advices from Versailles in
dictate that the Ministry and the AS
semby are going to pieces. Though
the government still retains work
ing majority in the Chamber, the
different sections are drifting wider
and wider apart, as no one Of them
finds it possible to gain its ends at
the expense of the rest. The sus-
pension Of the L'miocrs, the leading
Ultramontane organ, at the instance
Of the Berlin protests, cannot fail to
ALLEVIATE the clerical party. Even
those who may not sympathize with
the views Of that Journal, must con-
slider this measure national humll-
iation. French vanity is certain to
resent such a subsuryiency to a for
eign power, and even a stronger
Ministry than the present would be
endangered by it.

BISMARCK, in his war against the
Catholics, has a larger job on his
hands than he anticipated !: although
he has still majority in the Reich
stag, it has been reduced materially
by the late elections. The only
trouble which agitatas Germany
now seems to be the old one OF
church and state. What a glorious
thing for Germany it would be if
some master mind would rise up
and cut the gordian Of her present
problem by instituting complete
division Of the secular and religious
functions of the present govern
ment, looping off the latter entirely.
Where men are allowed to worship
as they please, no trouble OF amy
national importance arises between
sects. They may have their pole
mical battles to fight, but that Is all.
1t would be the browning OF Bis
marcll's life if he would declare for
absolute religious liberty, and for
get his present animosities.

The reports Of the depredations
Of the Sioux and other Indians on
the frontier are confirmed. Lieut..
Robinson and a private soldier, and
several civilians, have been killed,
and lately hostile threats have been
made by the Indians against agents
ana others. There is Il report that
general Indian war is imminent,
and more soldiers are demanded by
commanders on the frontier. a
dispatch from Cheyenne says that
10000 soldiers will be needed IN
that vicinity to protect the lives and
property OF the citizens.
In view Of these frequent Indian
outbreaks it is questionable whether
the Government should not stop at
together the practice OF supplying
Indians with arms and ammunition,
even though the Indians are I'M
uuestionably peacefully disposed
The excuse for this practice was
that arms and ammunition were
necessary to the procuring OF game,
and therefore necessary to then
Subsistence. But there was time
when they took their game with the
bow and arrow and dart, and 1t Is
worthy Of consideration whether II
would not b. best to remand the
Indian to this primitive method OF
taking his game, even though 1t
should involve .Ae necessity OF the
governments experimenting amy
deficiency in game with provisions.
Certain it is the government should
at once and forever stop supplying
arm, to the Indians whose DISPOSE
ton is ut all questionable. The
Sioux ought never to have received
arms. no matter how strong the

The Evils of Using Tobacco.

The following article, taken from the
Country Gentleman, so thrillinRly sets
forth the fearful results of using tobae-
co that the most hardened sinner must
repent and hasten to be wise after read
ing it:
First experiment, a hog wal shut mp
in a tight pen, and his only food was II
half pound Of tobacco q day. In Il
week he had lost four pounds. Second,
a mule was placed in a stall without
food. Two plugs of tobaccOwere placed
before her twice q day. She grew grad
uallv FESTIVE. On the third day one
plug was forced down her throat, when
She tore the experimentOr's ear with her
teeth, showing the had effect tobacco
has on ones disposition: 1t was then
found necessary to muzzlc her so that
she could not open her mouth. At the
end of eight days she died. Third, a
dog was nailed up in Il tobacco hogs
head. At the end of four days he was
taken out much reduced. Fourth, an
other dog was irclosed in a tobacco bar
rel and rolled down q steep hill. With
in two years that dog went mad! Tru-
" these are Satan's nets! could cite
plenty more of such experiments. We
all know that a single drop of the oil OF
tobacco placed on the end of a dogs tail
will kill a man iii a minute. Of four
men lately killed on the Erie Railway
three were smokers, and the father of
the other an invetcratc Chewer OF tObac-
co. On the bodies of the two men wash
ed ashore after the late storm or Lake
Michigan, papers of tobacco were found.
In my own neighbOrhood a very dis
trcssing accident, by which a most esti-
mable lady, the mother of seven lonely
ohildrun hroko her leg ncr1SiOnp1 nv a
pair of runaway horses running into a
fence that surrounded a field of tobacco.
Miss Chloe FlatfOOt recently died in the
county adjoining mine at the age of 11S
years. She had both cheWed and smoked
over 100 years, and as she had no dis
ease till the time of her death, it is only
fair to sdnfptpOse that it was tobacco that
killed her. For so long a time was
Satan spreading his nets for her; but |
think Mr.. X. will agree with me that he
must have her sur now. But why null
tipIy examples? You know how it is
yourself. So, Mr.. Editor, do not go on
helping spread these nets, by showing
in yOur paper how to grow large crops
of tobacco any more. Rather interline
the book of Proverbs with the remarks
of Our second Solomon. Only let me
add a word of caution to that gentle
man. Does he, let me ask, use tea or
coffee? These are other nets of Satan
as much as tobacco. Does he eat mince-
pies and use salaratus? More nets.
Does he indulge in ice creams or Oys-
tiers? Let him beware, lest, when he
least expects, Satan, in scooping in his
tobacco-users, fly away with him! Sra
ham bread without salt is his only saliva
ton.
