OUR GOVERNMENT.

Civil government is necessarily pro-
gressiVe science. The human race has
never yet known any system OF govern
ment absolutely perfect. The very ut
most that man can do in this regard is
to approximate perfection. 1t never
can be absolutely reached. The govern
ment of one period or Of certain people,
however well adjusted to the conditions
OF the time or the wants OF the people,
may be found utterly unsuited to an
other period or a different race. Man
himselfmust cease to be progressive be-
fore government can cease to partake
OF the same progressive character. And
yet men are prone to cling, fire.
quently with undue tenacity, to forms
OF government long established, even
when society has outgrown the govern
ment so persistently cherished. This
conservative tendency, ii not inordnate
in degree, is an important safeguard to
civil society.
Government can not safely precede
tie wants OF society; but it can not
safely lag behind. Its progression must
be pdrf pdSSu with the social advance
ment OF the people whose needs it is
constituted to subserve. AS all social
development is necessarily gradual, the
process of political advancement should
always be graduated to that ascending
scale Of social requirement; and there
fore that system Of government is the
best which carries within itself the ele-
ments of progression, as social needs
may require, without resorting to revo-
1ution to superinduce the requisite
change. In this wise, government be-
comes fruitful and living growth,
peaceful in all its changes; otherwise it
1t is a dead and barren abstraction,
changeable only by violence and revo.
luton.
We are wont to speak of our own gov
ernment as s'the best government on
Barth." This patriotic boast is not {
yain one. We believe it to be the truth
But, conceding its truth, 1t does not fol
low that our government is therefore al
together perfect. Its foundation wa!
the work of wise men; but they were ne
more than men. Their great wisdom
was manifested in seizing upon certain
great principles of government and Civ
ing them practical embodiment in ou
present republican system. This wal

Woman,s Sphere in China.

"Woman's rights" are not yet DOM
inant in China, and are not likely to be
very soon. The real status of the gent
Ter sex may be inferred from "The Glrls'
Classic" volume in meter, written by
Tsau-ta-ku, literally Great Aunt Tsau.
She tells the girls to rise early in
the morning, cover up the head
with an old handkerchief, and sweep
the Veranda. This done, they
are to brush their hair carefully,
wash their faces clean and begin their
sewing, "depieting the peacock, EN-.
predicting the ph@uix and working the
mandarin duck" TGere must be no
goSsiping in leisure time. If visitors
discuss the appearance of their aunts,
the maiden must not join in tile CONVEX
sation. At seven years old she ought to
begin to initiate groWn-up people. She
must not quarrel with her brothers
She. At fourteen she must learn
all that she will have to do when mar
ried. The first lesson is obedience; the
second, respect for her older brother and
his wife; the third, to be economical
with groceries,; The fourth, TO prepare
tea, rice and other food for the family;
the fifth, to be clean; the sixth, to
avoid evil thoughts, especially coyet'
Gus repinings; the seventh, to be num-
BILE. The husband, she, is told, is
to the wife what heaven is to earth.
sIf the hen crows in the morning
the house Will not prosper, and those
who look on with certainty say it is
your fault" Eighth, a girl must work
unweariedly, and, ninth, she must love
purity. Her ears have been bored TO
remind her not to listen to every ones
advice; her garments are divided into
skirts and jackets to remind her that she
is not the equal OF man, who wears long
looks, but to prevent her from continu-
ally going out OF the. house door.

THERE are some maladies from which
humanity recoYers very slowly if at all.
The Bristow fever, which afflicted a
most respectable minority Of the Gin
cinnad Convention, seems to pc one of
that kind. The Chicago Tribune had it,
and had it badly. Even now, between
its assurances to the public that Hayes
Is undoubtedly elected, it finds time to
speak of "the fatal error at Cincinnati"
as follows:
"Fhere was one man-Benjamin H.
Blstow-who stood out as the conspc-
uOus and tried defender OF reform, and
as bold, aggressive and strategic as
sailer Of the rings. He was no respector
OF pers ons, and his name would have
been synonym for reform, universally
recognized at the bare mention. He
was the chosen candidate of all that
portion OF the Convention which was
Outspoken against the Whisky Ring,
against Belknapism, against Boss
Shepherdism, against Congressional
partition of Offices, against corruption.
and the ofice-broking and spoiIs-sy stem
generally"

SOUTHERN oUTRAGEs of very many
different kinds are reported. The one
from Sandy Bottom, Ca, is that OF a

cause he voted for the wrong man for
Constable. He scratched his ticket
when he was ordered to vote it straight.

be so handy with his lead-pencil next
time.

The Rev. DR.. Benjamin W. Dwight
says OF his ancestor, Timothy Dwight,
father of Yale's president, that he was
six feet four inches in height. His wife
Mary, Jonathan Edwards daughter,
was so small that he would sometimes
carry her around the room on his open
palm, held out at arms length. The
physic strength of Major Dwight was
pr0portioned 70 his size. His descend
ant reports "two stories told of him In
the family" One of these represents
him as seizing cart drawn by yoke of
oxen and stopping it; the other tells of a
''W orthington braggart" who came into
Major Dwights garden to challenge him
to trial Of strength. Tie Major
quietly finished the garden work in
which he was engaged, and then "drop-
ping his hoe, he suddenly caught up the
ranIer, and whirling him horizontally
several times over his head, pitched
him out over the fence"

Creditor at Toledo Tackles the Wrong Woman
1t is fair to presume that Miss Lucille
Western, actress, was never placed in a
more singular predicament than that in
which she found herselI on the morning
Of November 13, 1876, in the City of To-
ledo. She had just arrived in the city
for the first time in her life. She was
driven through unfamiliar streets to her
hotel, and on every side saw only unfa-
miliar faces. WHAT, then, was her sur :
prise to learn that there was one man in
town who claimed previous acquaint-
ance.
Had this claim come in a less ques-
tionable shape; had it been made in the
manner generally adopted in good soci-
ETY.; had it been preceded by "a card and
petition to receive, Miss Western

THE present political situation has
been mentioned in good many different
shapes. Here is the way the Chicago
Times puts it: "Hope tor season bade
the world farewell, and Freedom
shrieked as Florida failed to let US know
just where she was" The editor of the
Ottawa (Iowa) Courier shows that his
early education was duly looked after
by stating it in this way: SIT is game
OF seven up, in which Tilden has one to
60, and Hayes four. II Hayes should
make hieh, low, jack and the game, it
gives him four and puts him out. II
Tilden, however, should turn up jack,
which is an old and Democratic trick,
he goes out and wins the game"
