The Boyhood OF Jesus.

His outward life was the life Of those
of his age and station and place Of
birth. He who has seen the children
Of Nazareth, in their red caftans and
bright tunics of silk cloth, and heard
their bringing laughter as they wander
about the hills Of their little native
valley, may perhaps have some con-
ception of how Jesus looked and
played when he too was q child. And
the traveller who has followed the chill
dren to their simple homes, and seen
the scanty furniture, the plain but
sweet and Wholesome food, the une-
ventful, happy, patriarchal life, may
form a,vivid conception Of the. man.
ner in which Jesus lived. Nothing
can be plainerthan those houses, with
the doves summing themselves on the
white roofs, and the vines wreathing
about them. The mats or carpets are
laid loose along the walls; shoes and
sandals are taken off at the threshold;
from the centre Of the ceiling hangs o
lamp, which forms the o0ly ornament
of the room; in some resseas in tbe
wall Is placed the wooden box, pa nted
in bright coors, which contains The
hooks or other possessions of the FAM
lily. On a ledge that runs around the
wall within easy reach are the gay
colored quilts which serve as beds, and
on the same lotige are ranged the
earthen vessels for daily use; near the
door stand the large, common water
jars Of red clay, with a few twigs and
green lesves-Often Of aromatic herbs
thrown into their orifiees to keep
the water cool. At mealstimes 3
painted wooden stool is placed in the
centre of the apartment a large tray
is put upon ii, and in the middle Of
the tray stands the dish of rice or
meat or stewed fruits, from which all
help themselves in common. Both
before and after the meal the servant
er the youngest member of the family
puurs water over the hands from a
brazen ever into q brazen bowl. So
quiet. so simple, SO humble, SO une-
ventful, was the outward life Of the
family or Nazareth. .--Fdrray's life
OF Christ" gkG OF Wk54

Chisel In hand, stood q sculptor boy
With his marble block before him.
And his face lit up with a smile ofjoy,
As an angel dream passed DER him.
He carved that dream on the yielding stone
With many sharp incisOn;
In Heavens own light the sculptor shOne,
He had caught an angel Vision.
Sculptors Of life are we, as we stand
With our lives uncarved before US, t j. s

Our life. dream passes o'erus. ~

Boss Tweed and crew We're denounced
and punished by the democratic party OF
New York. .-Maine Standard.
This is another unblushing falsehood.
Boss Tweed was defended by the demo
Gratis after his gigantic robberies were ex-
posed. The Maine Standard defended
him. The first to expose him in New
York was republican newspaper, and
the republican party promptly taking up
the subject of reform, organized the Com
mittee of Seventy and invited good men
of all parties to cooperate. The DEMO
CRATIC PARTY. on the contrary. not
only defended Tweed. after an exposure OF
his guilt was made, but ELECTED the

From the Boston 1ournsD
fHE MAINE CANTASS.

We have no reason to doubt that THAT
which has been is that which shall be" once
more even in the pending canvass ofMaine.
The republicans have certainly been for
tunate in their new nominee for Governor.
Gen. Connor is one of the rising young
men of the State, with splendid war rec
ord. and the confidence of all who know
him in his integrity, capacity and nerve.
The democratic attempt to create ridl-
cule by caricaturng him on the crutches
by rebel bullets, has been poor election
eering investment. The people OF Maine
do not see the ioke--they do see something
worse than ridiculous in party which at
the same time deprecates the retention
of war issues and yet slurs crippled SOL
dier and poes back for its own nominations
to the fayorites of peace consprators who
were hand in glove with traitors in the
most desperate crises ofthe national strug
Gle. They cannot but regard these things
as significant of parties in State contest
which is TO have specially marked bear
ing upon the next Presidential campaign.
1t is worthy of note that the force of the
election in Maine tells almost wholly up
on national interests because the Repub-
lican management Of the State for twenty
wears has been so successful and satisfac.
tory that no real issue can be taken upon
it. 1t is true, Gen. Roberts, the democrat
c candidate for governor, has volunteered
to declare his enmity to the temperance
laws of the State, but that will only lose
him the support OF some temperance dem
ocrats as to financial management the
enforcement Of economy, the equalization
of taxation, the development of the re-
sources OF the State and the improvement
of education and other interests, neither
he nor any other democrat dares to take
any distinct issue with the republicans.
They want to get control ofthe State. not
for its advantage in any respect. but sim
plv for tho sake of the democratic party
of the country-that organization which
still holds every unrepentant rebel, every
foe of equal rights, every internal repudi-
ationst and three-fourths of the initiation
lists of the country. If the people OF
Maine want to stir up again disorder and
danger at the South, if they want to stamp
continued and indefinite debasement up.
on our currency and to cast most disas-
trous shadow over the national credit, thus
deepening the gloom of every unsatisfac-
tory feature of our present business situa-
ton, they will consent to the defeat OF
Gen. Connor, or to his election by a small
dscreditable majority. We look, however,
for an altogether different result. We
know of the intelligence. the public spirit.
the vigilance of the republican masses of
our sister State, and we are confident that
they will once more exhilarate the coun.
try with timely and decisive victory.

The Kenuebec Journal rcbukes Mr.

ment, knowingly made by him in his open
letter to Mr.. Blaine, charging the latter
with having dealt in bad faith with the es-
tate OF the late A. w. johnson, OF this city.
in relation to certain bonds Of the Little
Rock and Fort Smith Railroad Company
and it republishes letter written by Mr..
C. B. Hazeltine of this city, one of the ex-
ecutors of Mr.. Johnson's estate. dated in
1872, in which he pronounced the accu-
sation false. and stated that Mr. Blaine I
conduct in the whole matter was that Of a
gentleman and man of honor, and more
than could have been expected in busi
ness transaction. This coming from a
gentleman who is democrat and politi
cally opposed to Mr.. Blaine, shows that
Mr.. Pllsbury not only made false state
ment originally. but has repeated it, lenow
ing 1t to be false, which places him in an
unpleasant predicament, especially as he
has been shouting liar to those who have
criticised his war record.-Beyast Pro

The July statement Of the Bureau Of
Statistics contains the important and sig
nifcant item that while our exports ex-
ceeded by sj00.000 the total exports of the
corresponding period from July /, 1904 to
July /, 1875, the imports fell behind in the
same period nearly s6.ooO.000. The gain
in the amount of Exports, $500, 900, is
credited to the last month in the calcua-
tive year, and that month, July, is by no
means the best in the year. This tenden-
cy of the current trade is OF the utmost
importance, and the official exhibit Of the
fact cannot fail TO have cheering and

DENoCRACY AND REPUBLICANISN

DEMOCRACY AND REPUBLICANISH
DEMOCRACY as preached to-day,
North and South, means discord. sectional
hate, the restriction of constitutional rights,
the rejection of those advanced ideas
which today characterize humanity and
citizenship. and the restoration of the fatal
doctrine of State Rights.
REPUBLlCANISM, on the contrary,
means peace, the growth of the national
spirit. the ascendency of loyalty, the ex-
erciss and full protection of every consti-
tutional right. the education OF the masses.
the elevation of citizenship through intel
ligence and patriotism, and the full resto-
ration to every State that accepts its guild
ance, Of former happiness and prosperity

THE DEMOCRATIC C4NDIDATES ZOE
LATURE.
The democrats of Augusta last night
placed in nomination for representatives
in the legislature, w. S. Badger and G.
W. Stanley.
Mr.. Badger was the candidate Of his
party last September for representative,
and last spring he was the democratic can
didate for Mayor. Though pleasant gen.
tleman and good citizen, Mr.. Badgers
record is that of hard shell democrat.
He was postmaster of the city In the Pierce
and Buchanan administrations, and stuck
to the party all the time it was playing in
to the hands of the Southern rebels.
Mr. Stanley is an older and more rigid
democrat, if possible, than Mr.. Badger.
He would pass for Bourbon even In
Connecticut or Kentucky. One of the
queer things about his domination is that

VIEW YORK REPUBLICAN STATE coy
TENTION.

The New York republican State convcn-
ton was a large, harmonious and success
full assemblage. Fred E. Seward, son OF the
distinguished William II. Seward and
worthy of his sire, was nominated for the
first place on the ticket, that of Secretary
of State. Ger. Spinner, late Treasurer of
the United States, was nominated for Comp
troller Gen. f. A. Merritt of ST. Law
renee. liberal republican, was nominated
for Treasurer. These were the most in
portant nominations. George William
Curtis, who was recently at the head of
the Civil Service Commission and resigned
the position, was president Of the conven
ton. In his speech he said:
"For fifteen years the republican party has gov
erned the country. II saved the Union in war,
ami has restored and pacfed it, if its opponents
may be believed 1t has done this not always
wisely well, and in the face of the most un-
scrupulous snd remorseless opposition, but it has
done it. 1t has restored to the country the lost
glory of the American name: That the cancer OF
our national life has been removed; that the lib
erty OF all the people and their equality before the
law have been asserted and maintained; that the
question of State secession has been settled forev
err tha, politics have been lifted from the fierce
and fatal difference to the nature of the govern
ment, to the discussion of constitutional methods
of administration; that the national name was
never before illust,ious, nor its power and
honor so universally respected, are results vast,
benefcen mt, permane Mt, which are due to the Amer
lean peope. acting through the republican par
". Naturally TO those of who have borne
the name AMI shared the struggle, the name re-
publican has al inspiring charm. 1t is connected
with great historic epocn, with great soldiers,
.sAiesEnen. aod martyrs; with great triun Phs for
the eoaairy aa3 manhood. The name of the dem.
ocrA.ic party is indebly stained with slavery and
secession. with inhdeliy to human rights, and the
aIou A. their guarantee. The friend. of justice
and constitutional government naturally prefer a
party name associated with their defense and Sc
curity. 10, with their defiance aud destruction.
TTue-hearted Americans of every part Of the
country, on tie changed situation, would gladly
follow the political friends and disciples of Lin
coin, Sumner and Seward, than those of Bu-
chsuan, Beckinridge, and Jefferson Davis. But
the elections Of last year showed great dssst;sfac-
ton and Indifference to old party associations. l
do not believe that those elections can be fairly in
terpreted distinct and deliberate preference of
the democratic party but they certainly showed
distrust of certain republican tendencies and men.
Our duty to-day is to recognize this fact. ard to
consider how those who, if may say so, are nat
urally republicans, may act harmoniously togeth-
er."

REpyBLICAN CAUCUS TO.yIGHT,

REPUBLICAN CAUCUS TONIGHT.
The republicans of Augusta will assem-
bic in Granite Hall this evening to nomi-
nate two candidates for representatives In
the legislature.
We hope to see a full caucus, repl esent-
ing every part OF our city and all classes
and conditions of our people who intend
to vote the republican ticket next Monday.
We urge our republican friends to come
out in full force-come as they will gath
er at the polls. Let ALL COME who can.
| The call is broad--the doors of the caucus
will be wide open. The proceedings will
be such that no republican, whatever his
occupation or profession, need be afraid
or ashamed to participate in them.
1t is especially desirable that we have a
full and free expression in the caucus as
| to the choice of candidates to be support
| ed. 1t rests with the caucus to make the
nominations.
Having full caucus and fair express
sion of opinion the decision as to cand-
dates should and will be conclusive.
What the majority of such caucus de-
cides to be best for the republican party
and the city, will be respected and OBJ
served by every true republican as the
decision of such caucus should be. Per-
sonal preferences and dslikes will he laid
asde,. objections that may have been
raised will vanish, and there will be har-
monious action at the polls in support of
the ticket.
Speaking may be expected at the eau
