WHO IS A REBEL'

the Hall OF the House OF hopresenta-
tives, at Atlanta, Georgia, Hon. Bon
iamin HI. Hill, Of that State, perti-
nently said: The greatest difficulty |
in the way Of saving q people from Q
Threatened danger, is to make that
people conscious that the danger is
approaching. There is nota sadder
feature Of the worlds history than
this, that almost all people who are
destroyed are destroyed chiefly by |
their refusal to see the dangers ap-
proaohing. The word which has
perhaps been oftener spoken during
tho last fourteen years than any other
word in the English language is the
word Tint is least understood by the
American people. In American pol

milton in either Of those countries is
wholly inappropriate in this, There,
a rebel Is one Who rosists the govern
ment-their government Is represent

Here, government is the mere ma
chinery, the mere organization for
the administration Of the laws. Gov

power, IS not tho sovereign in Amer
lica. The question recurs, then,
in American politics, who IS rebel
-77a real rebel? os.g
When the trainers OF the Constitu-
tion we're about to conclude their
work, the question naturally occurred
to them, as it did on several occa-
sions during their labors: In what.
way should they bind those who
should undertake to administer the
Government to be faithful to their
OBLIGATIONS? There was some discus
sion, but finally it was determined
that the President and every officer
Of the government, State and Feder-
| al. should take an oath to support
| tie Constitution. Now, tho inquiry
| Is pertinent. why not take an oath to
support the Union2 Why not take
an oath to support the government?
Why did they not require them to

A WANT SUPPLIED.

The American mind Is active. Il has

that all truth should be made - univer-

produced q work In which he gives
them tho benefits OF his labors. In II
he considers man in every phase Of his
existence, from the moment he smsrgss
''from q rayless atom, too diminutive
for the sight, until no gradually evolves

Proceeding upon the theory that every
fact OF mind has q physical ~antsosdent,
he has given an admirable treatise on
Cerebral Physiology. aud shown tho
bearings OF the facts thus established
upon individual and social welfare. Tho
author believes with Spencer. that ''as
