The Connecticut Senator.

The Connecticut Democrats have made a
serious mistake for themselves and Tor their
party throughout the country. For twenty
years previous to the repeal of the Missouri
compromise all the New England States ex-
cept Massachusetts and Vermont were
usually represented in the Senate by Demo-
Gratis They lost every one OF these eight
Senators by lending thither while the po-
litical tide was turning such Senators as
William W Eaton. By electing him to
the char once occupied by Isaac Toucey,
the Democracy of that section of the Union
now show that long "l1sion from the
national councils has ia, ht them nothing
valuable.
Though born in Connecticut, Mr.. Eaton
received his carly'political training in South
Carolina. While residing there he was IN
doctrinated in the creed of John c. Cal
houn. Returning to his native State, he
became an enthusiastic and vociferous ad-
vocate of those political principles which
finally led to secession and rebellion, and
all the incalculable evils flowing therefrom.
For a quarter of a century there has not
been in all the Northern States more per-
sistent apostle of CalhOunism. Previous to
the war he was the unainching advocate OF
the aggressions of the slavery propaganda
lists. Daring the war he was the unblush-
ishing apologist of the rebels in arms
and now, when for the first time almost
within the memory OF the present gen
Grafton of voters the Democrats of Con-
necticut have an opportunity to elect
Senator to Congress, they pass over such
men as Gov Ingersoll and Richard d. Hub
bard, and nominate William W. Eaton
by reclamation. So be it If the Demo-
cratic party can stand it We think their op-
pOnents can.
1t may be urged in extenuation of this
grave error that Mr.. Eaton is an honest
man. We hope he Is; and trust he will be
able to bear up against the seductlOns OF
Washington. which have sapped the foun-
dation of men quite as honest as he can be.
But i this all that the party which asplres
to rule the nation has got to show? Do
they aim No higher than abstalnlng from
sending thieves TO the Senate? The times
require statesmen; but Eaton is no states
man at all. either good, bad or indifferent.
He Is nothing but Il noisy politician.-N.

This matter of hard drinking is one
about which it seems to be next to impossi-
bic orpeopleto think philosophically. The
fact that temperance depends upon character

The trial of Prof. David Swing by the
PresbStery of Chicago, for heresy, resulted.
according to general expectation, in his ac-
quittal. On the trial he avowed himself
new school Presbyterian, but denied that he
had come in conflict with any Calvinistic
doctrines. His first statement was regard
ing his relations to the liberal churches.
As to the quality of the offence, out of fif-
in behalf of evangelical churches, and re-
Enumeration was declined in all cases but
one. As to the quality of the conduct, he
submitted that there was no valuable theory
of life save that of good will toward all
men; hence to decline to lecture on
behalf of a Unitarian chapel would
do more harm to the mutual good
will on which society was founded
than it would do good to an ortho-
dox theology. The sin of the lecture must
be on the assumption that the Unitarian
sects were outcasts from God, having no
hope in the life to come. The names OF
Claiming, Elliott, Huntington, Peabody
and others, and the Christ-llke lives OF thou
sands in the congregations OF that denomi-
nation utterly excluded from his mind and
heart the most remote idea that, on show
ing that brotherhood kindness, he was of
fering approval to persons outside the pale
of Christian religion and hope. That these
brethren were doomed to wrath beyond the
tomb, he wholly repudiated.. They did not
hold as correct view of the gospel as
that announced by the Evangelical ALI
ance a few wears since. but he was GER
tain the blessed Lord did not bestow His Tor
giveness on the mind that had ahe most ac-
curate information, but on the heart that
loved and trusted Him; that God would
grant salvation only to those who appre-
hended the fact of expiatory atonemenf was
to give Heaven only to philosophers. This
he secuted. DR.. Watts was accused OF
being Unitarian, and it was hard to draw
the dividing line and place men outside the
great love OF Jesus. He stood ready at all
times, therefore, to express towards such
sects friendship not only human and wise
and social. but Christian. The harmony be-
tween him and the brethren was not OF the
mind but of the heart. Much as he loved
Presbyterianism, if it required him to abate
in the least his good will toward all sects
he should refuse to purchase the Presoy-
terian name at so dear price
1t will be observed that Prof. Swing an
nounces his withdrawal from the Presby-
terian denomination-where to 60 is not
stated.

Spring GIadness and sadness.

The Spring is here, two lovers say
THE April showers briRg the Nay,
And Nav brings forth our wedding day "
While thus another doth complain
As softly pours the gentle rain;
Wiki Anril rain fall tears Of pain
In vain to me spring grass and grain,
My lost love comes not back again"
But birds and lovers hail the Spring
The same glad Spring,
The same cad Spring.
"The May il here the children cry,
with May comes flowers ana sunny sky
And 70 the woodland wayslwe HE"

There was a town among the hills
That had a school beset by Ills

The trustees watched the school pro gress
And heard the boys their sins confess.
But let the fence alone.
One day Mr. Barnum came to the Town
And brought an elephant great and oro"n'
Along with his mammoth show
The elephant marched through the STREE
This poor school house h eye CID meet
And he laid the building low.

The boys rejoiced in the holiday earneu

And the next spring was raised tax
From the peoples pockets came forth green
backs
For q school house for the town.
