Democratic Tactics.

The leaders of the Democratic party
have evidently undertaken to rest their
claims for support, in the coming Presi-
dental contest, upon the fact that an oc-
casional corrupt Republican official has
been discovered. But they are. not good
detectives, since they display determine
ton to only discover that corruption
which is found in the ranks of their op-
ponents, while they show great anxiety to
shield the guilty ones in their own ranks.
They forget that the Republicans have
been vigilant in searching out and pun
ishing corrupt Republicans, and under,
take to come in at this late day and claim
some credit for virtue by hunting up evil
dence that some Republican is not more
honest than the average Democrat. They
forget the large list OF otfenses committed
by their party, and seek to draw attention
from the same by persistently shouting
Republican corruption" in the ears Of
the people But the people are not so
stupid that they cannot understand this
electioneering dodge; nor is their mem
DRY so short that they cannot remember
the disposition of the leaders OF the Dem
ocratic party to plumber the Government

New Hampshire.

The Importance Of the recent Re
publican victory in New Hampshire
can hardly be overestimated The Re-
publicans have not had popular majorl-
ty in the State since 1873, when they had
but 22S. In 1874 the Democratic plurali-
~ was ,465, and in 1875 the Republicans
had bare plurality of 49, This even
balance OF parties in total vote running
from 10000 to so, 600, makes the State one
OF the most valuable in the Union as in
dicative OF any change in popular senti-
ment.
Up to the opening of the present month
there was no doubt as to the setting OF the
popular tide. The disgraceful perform
ances OF the Democrats in Congress, the
position OF the party as completely under
the domination of the Confederate ele-
ment, and the shameful defense by rebel
orators of the Secessionists' war and the
horrors that it entailed, had awakened
Doth the Indignation and alarm of patriotic
people throughout the length and breadth
OF our country. 1t was felt that the knell
OF Democracy had been sounded-that
there was no danger of the control Of
National affairs passing again into the
nanas OF those who precipitated upon uH
the dangers and horrors of a four years
war.
With the sudden and dramatic exposure
OF the Belknap affair, there came mo-
ment OF painful doubt. 1t had been art
iulIy managed by the Democrats control
ing the investigating committee for the
very purpose of carrying New Hampshire.
hey had procured their evidence in pro-
IoQhu secrecy; they had dismissed the
uN'g witness, so as to bar prosecutions
anu protect themselves and then at the
HSIUIcal moment they launched their polit-
iCai 'hunderbolt, and hurried fifty thou
S Sslu copies of the proceedings to the
dhi'e State. The plot was artfully
tanned, but it failed of success. The
iYepuolican party were seen rising to a
man % fepudiate and cast off the guilt of
1leir of1cer, and to force both his i'm
peaGhment and prosecution by all means
ih thelr power. The Democrats were seen
~ the attitude of obstructing investiga-
S.on ana punishment and of seeking the
eAPosure only for partisan purposes. The
NU sment OF the people was prompt and
A9vA--lt was in favor OF the party whom
11ey have so long entrusted with power,
anu which has rendered so good an ac.
count thereof.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

1t is said that about forty three per
cent. Of the families Of st, Louis are dcs-
titute OF the Bible. The Bible Society of
the city Is making strong effort to rem.
edy this extraordinary condition of things.
"A sample is given of the work of the
revisers OF the Bible. 1t is from Isaiah,
*, D. The present version reads thus.
For unto us child is born, unto us a
son is given; and the government shall be
upon his shoulder; ana his name shall be
called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty
God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince
OF Peace" The revised version reads
thus: " For unto us child is born; unto
US a son is given; and the government
shall be upon his shoulder, and his name
shall be called Wonderful, Counselor,
Mighty God, Father OF Eternity, Prince
OF Peace.'
"A story Is reported of certain cler-
gyman, which is declared to be authentic,
that, having received call to vacant
pulpit in Warren, r. L., he arrived to
spend few days, look about, preach, ETC.

toned very naturally suggested itself, and

retained their relation till it was severed
by death, and, not wishing to ask the
question directly, he took meditative
walk to and about the cemetery, and, not
finding the grave of even one of their
pastors, concluded that the pastorates must
be short, and that when the pastors SICK
ened they must have been sent off to die,
and decided to decline the call.
Why should man be buried on Sun
day. Why should all the livery stables
send out their drivers and their horses?
Why should the minister be called out to
the additional serviceg Why should the
attendance at other churches be inter
tered with by having all this funeral pa
geant on Sunday? There are occasions
when a funeral on Sunday may be fitting
and appropriate: but as a rule Sunday
funerals are Sunday dissertations. We
could wish people might die early in the
week, so that they might, OF necessity be
buried before Sunday. But death
chooses his own time for his work,
which is often the most announcement
time possible for the minister. We plead
that when death invades household some
little consideration be had for the minis
ter.-Christtan at Work.
