A DANGEROUS ALLIANCE.

In Hartford, New London, Middlesex,
Windham and Toland counties, the Re-
publican gains this year were la ger than
the Democratic, by nearly loo votes
In New Haven, Fairfield, and Litchfield
counties the Democratic gains were near
ly 4, 900 more than the Republican. The
larger part of this gain comes from
wards i'll New Haven, Bridgeport, Nor
walk, and Stamford, where ignorance,
vice, and bigotry are supreme. General
Hawley owes his defeat to just such dis
tricts in Hartford and New Britain. The
great Democratic gain comes principally
from sections where the inhabitants
have no more idea of conscience in vot-
ing than they have of federation in some
other matters. The truth of the matter
is, the power of the Democratic party in
this State comes from an element which
will assuredly give it very serious trou-
BILE, and at no distant day either. The
beginnings of it were seen in New Haven
and Hartford last fall; what the end may
be is not particularly pleasant to con-
template. Sooner or later the Demo-
cratic party in this State, or the better
part of it, will realize that there are ele-
ments in it that they cannot yield to, but
which nevertheless Will control it. By
and by the people of Connecticut will
understand that their legislation is con-
trolled by the fifth ward in New Haven,
the sixth in Hartford, and similar wards
in other cities. 1t is better for the Re
publican party to have suffered defeat
than to have won it with any such alli-
ances as the democracy have made. If
some of the fruits of that alliance do not
appear before the Legislature this year,
and in the larger town elections next
fall, the Democratic party and the intel
ligent people of the State may congratu-
late themselves -NOrLcich Bulletin

Gov. ALLEN AS A CRUSADER gen
tleman of the olden time, who sInacks
his lips to his friends over ''barrel Of
thirteen year old rye" which he has in
the cellar at Fruit Hill, would hardly be
imagined to be crusader, but it would
seem from his recent little speech at a
temperance fair in Cincinnati that Gov.
Allen is ambitious to be enrolled as a
crusader of the most exalted degree. In
alIuding to the crusade movement Gov.
Allen said:
sit is one of the forms which in every
well-regulated community must commend
itself to all men who are worthy to be
called such"
So we have the venerable Williams ap-
proval of the crusade. But il is quite
probable in giving utteranee to this lit
tie speech Gov. Allen thought it was a
smart gudgeon to appear to be all things
to all men. William was a demagogue
in the beginning, and we are very much
afraid that the tree is inclined as the
twig was bent.-DGytOn Journal.

The Buffalo Courier thinks that Sen
ator Thurman does not exaggerate the
Importance of the part Ohio will take in
the pending game Of national politics
There remains now, it says, four States
Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska, and West Nir-
ginia-in which October elections are
held, and Of these only Ohio elects in
October of this year. The result of her
elections will accordingly be the only
significant indication of the state of pub
lie sentiment that will be furnished pre-
vious to the general November contest
THAT result, moreover, will have its in
fiuenee on the November elections, and
these in turn may practically decide the
more momentous issue of 1876"

PUSH -

When Cousin Will was at home for va
cation. the boys always expected plenty of
fun. Tie last frOlic before be went back to
his studies was n long tramp after hazel
nuts. As they were hurrying along in high
glee, they came upon discouraged look
ing man and discouraged looking cart.
The cart was standing before an orchard
The man WIS trying TO pull il up the hill
to his OWN house. The boys did not wait
to be invited, but ran 10 help with good
will. Push. push, was the cry. The
man frightened up; the cart trundled
along as fast ns rheumatism would do it,
and ia fivr minutes they all stood painting
Mt the topOf the Lii
Obliged to ye," said the man, 'you
inst wait a minute; and hurried into the
house, while two or three pink Rprnned
children peeped our of the door.
Now, boys, said Cousin VIII, this is
small thing, but wish we could all take
motto out of it and keep it for life
Push. if is just the word for a grand
clear morning like this. II anybody is in
trouble. and you seeit, don't stand back,

any place where you happen TO be, push !
Whenever there's kind thing,a Chris

whether it is at home or in the town, at
church or at school, just help with all your

At that moment the farmer came out
again with dish of his wiGe's best dough
nuts, and dish of his own best apples
and that was the end of the little ser
mon.

A FAMILY YROMANCE.-Jonesw would go
out evenings on little spree, which he
endeavored to conceal from his wife.
In this he succeeded Fell for a time, but
at last her suspicious became aroused.
She watched his movements when he
came home for three or four evenings,
and thus became doubtly sure that her
suspicions were not without foundation.
He would enter the room very cautious
" at night, then set himself down on e
chair by the bed, and disrObe himself
and quietly slip into bed-and all this
was done in the dark. Mrs. Jones con-
eluded she would set a trap for him.
She moved all the chairs away from the
place where he usually sat down, and in
the place put a wash-tub filed with wa
ter. She then retired, and was soon in
the land of dreams.
Sure enough, at a late hour Jones
came home, and as usual attempted to
sit down in his accustomed chair, but he

and calming down asked what was the

''Carrie-hic-tida swim

Jones evidently thought he was ship

WE knew young men ten years ago
who often carried five Or ten dollars sew
eral days until it was frittered away;
they would not deposit anything unless
they could deposit larger amounts, and
so they never have saved anything. 9th
ers, when they had five dollars, or two
dollars, or even one dollar, they did not
need, have put their spare funds in the
bank We know a young man who made
up his mind he could spare certain sum
every week, and that he would deposit
it; some weeks his expenses We're more
than other weeks, but he regularly de-
posted, even If he had to borrow the
money. TO day he is worth over two
thousand dollars, saved from a moder-
ate salary. 1t is never too late TO mend.
If you have saved nothing during the
past ten wears. don't let the same be true
of the next ten.

TRIBUTE TO A MOTHER. Children,
look in those eyes, listen to that dear
voice. notice the feeling of even a single
touch that If bestowed upon you by that
gentle haEdi Make much Of it while
yet you have that most precious of all
gifts a loving mother. Read the I'M
fathomabIe love Of those eyes: the kind
anxiety of that tone and look, however
slight your pain. In after life you may
have friends, fond, dear friends; but
never will you have again the inexpres-
sible love and gentleness lavished upon
YOU which none but a mother bestOws.
Often do sigh in my struggles with the
dark, unearing world, for the sweet,
deep security felt when, OF an evening,
nesting in her bosom, listened TO some
quiet tale, suitable to my age, read in
her tender and untiring voice. Never
can forget her sweet glanees east upon
me when / appeared asleep; never her
kiss Of peace at night. Years have passed
away since we laid her beside my father
in the old chureh-yard; and still her
voice whispers from the grave, and her
eye watches over me, as / visit spots
long since halIowed to the memory Of
nv mother.-LOrd NQeaulay.

A SOFT ANswER--The husband was

StAnS-

Growth is the law of Christian life.
For that very purpose we are grated
into the true vine that we might haxe
life, and that more abundantly. More
abundantly" is the characteristics feature;
more life, more faith, more peace. The
Saviors life is both imputed and impart-
ed to those who are grappled into him.
They have all the honor and privilege,
the position and prospects, that belong
to the vine, and likewise receive into
their natures the full wealth of life which
flows from the divine root, through the
powerful body, to all the branches.
This makes them grow. How can they
help itl
BY two processes this growth pro-
ceeds: By gradual, steady development,
and by periods of sudden enlargement.
There are seasons in the kingdom of
grace as well as in that of nature. Those
who grow steadily now and again, are
visited with rich manifestations, noun
tain-seenes, Beulah revelations, third
heaven visions, which transcend all pre-
vious endowments, and make them ap-
pear small by reason of the 'glory that
exeelleth-" But these seasons are not to
be sought, We. e.cannOt force them. Fruit
has its time for ripehing; let it wait.
Ripening will come in its season. These
rich endowments will come to those who
obey, trust and wait. When the Lords
time comes he will take us apart to the
mountain-top. Patient workers, firm
believers, sufferers with Christ, are the
ones who receive such calls.

The Charges Against Judge An
dreWs.

The Press and Herald OF yesterday
morning, abiding to the charges
against Judge Andrews, District At
torney for this District, says:
The District Attorney il an honest
man, and is, no doubt, acting entirely
within legal rules and presidents
but il may be considered whether the
practice, as existing in the Federal
Courts, is not one to which the pru.
ning-knife of relrenchment might not
wisely and profitably be applied,
There is u very general impression
existing that numerous cases for viola
lion of the revenue laws are brought
into court in order that Interested par
lies may Obtain fees--thOugh of course
the District Attorney has no part in
this Teprebensible practice, and simply
does his duty when cases are brought
within his province and in his way
! the Federal Court becomes an instru-
ment of persecution. IL may be that
| abuses of this nature have found lodgs
ment in the system Of espionage con-
uecied with the revenue service, and
! 20, the interests OF Justice and econ.
nmy viii he subserved by reform, tC
which we are sure the District AttOr'
uey would heartily lend his aid.
