As shadow of himself
Adorn his temples with a coronet.
Aud vet in substance and 3uth.ri.y,

Retain, but privilege as a private man.
Does any one suppose that in accepting
platform, every principle Of which is &C.
copied from the Republican party-ln
supporting a candidate who repudiates
alike the party and the spoils-the De-
mocracy is sincere? It is but the game
on their part which Mr.. Lamar has insti-
tuted in omplimenting Charles Sumner
and condemning the Hamburg massacre
Let not, then. the Republicans relax
their organization nor abate their vigilance.
The opponents OF every principle they
hold dear are more dangerous that they
have abandoned their old ground and
formed a new alignment on Republican
frontiers. Let them not suppose that be-
cause spokesman has been put forward
who processes Republican principles that
his followers mean to be bound by them.
Above all, let not the colored people
be cajoled-we have no fear they can
be-by the kindly words which Mr..
Nichols is permitted to address to
them. The only object of the White
Leaguers is to entice them within range,
when they will open upon their rights a
deadly fire. which General Nichols and
his executive staff will be unable to ar
rest. For, we may ask with what mate
rial could Mr.. Nichols execute his pacific
pretens;ons2 With the militia of Cou-
shatta, of jackson Square, Of Feliciana,
and with the levees of the fourteenth OF
September? With this new ruse the hypo-
critical Democracy is more dangerous
than when they advanced with McEnery
at their head. and the Democrat whipping
up the laggaris with the fat Of its wooden
sword. Democracy is now headed with
the placarded principles Of the Repub-
licans, borne by new recruit whom they
have assigned to this duty. Should
they succeed under this ruse the
new recruit will be laughing stock
for the simplicity of his professions.
Tie White Leaguers will compel him to
violate the conservative articles of his
record, to violate his reforms, to surren-
der his patronage to the Bourbons; and
falling to submit to this dictation by
those who would claim to have elected
him, we should perhaps find him i'm
peached by Democratic House for some
obsolete act OF opinion, and his more
practical lieutenant installed in his place.
Were it not for the united and resolute
position of the Republican party. this
fraudulent strategy of tine Bourbons
might lie successful. In such case the
business men would get the platform and
Governor, the White Leaguers the spoils
and domination. The Republicans will
protect the country from any such mis-.
fortune.

Total.
Chicago Tribune.

Deducting this total from the entire
number of MethOdists in the country, it
will be found that there are 1861 ,260 in
the North-an excess over the South of
743 ,3Il. The influence of these two
great churches moving In harmony here
after must be very powerful for good.
In view of this grand cOnsumatiUn, 1t is
not remarkable that the enthusiasm of
the Commission ers manifests itself in the
following triumphant Outburst:
The streams of Gospel truth issuing
from the depths of their sacred foun-
tains in their Holy Scriptures, as they
are borne to thirsty thousands through
the instramentalitY of a called and quail
flied ministry, AID made effectual to sal
vation by the mighty workings of Divine
power, will increase their assuaging
freshness when all the itinerant ranks
of Episcopal Meth Odism shall move to-
gether in fraternal concord. Then, as
the chosen vessels of grace, may they
bear the living waters of salvation to all
the world. Contemplating the prospect
of complete fraternity among them, we
are led to look back to those inspiring
scenes of primitive times when the com
pany of disciples were of one heart and
mind, steadfast in the Apostles doctrine
and fellowship, having all things in com
mon, continuing in the temple, praising
God, and having favor with all the peo-
pie.
In all its peculiar doctrines, its primi-
tive system of church government, its
itinerant plan of preaching, its syste-
matte provision for its ministers and
members, it's widespread missionary
enterprises, and the untiring activity of
its membership, the Methodist Church
possesses unusual advantages for the
spread of its doctrines, and unusual
opportunities for appealing to the masses
of the people These advantages will
now be immensely enhanced by the con-
solidation of these 100000 of active
workers, who have heretofore been work
ing separately, but who hereafter will
storm the citadel Of sin with unbroken
front.

HAYES IN HIS OWN STATE.

The people of Ohio, who certainly
ought to know well the value of the
promises of their Governor, do not sesm
to hold at very high standard the decla-
ration of his "inhexibIe purpose, if
elected not to be a candidate for election
to a second term" They remember
the time when the idea was broachsd,
that he should represent bis people in .
Congress. He then made known his 'in--
flexible purpose" not to be candidate,
and, if elected, not to accept tho Office.
But be was a candidate, and he was
elected, and he did no harm wilhelm

pledge given to them in 1875, that he
would not be a candidate for the Gov
ernorship, and they tell US how he broks
that pledge, became candidate and sue
cessfulIy used all the force of the party
machinery to insure bis election His
"infexible purpose" his own people do
not estimate as Of much worth. In fact,
they look in vain, and have looked in
vain for years,tO find anything approach
ing iGfexibility in the man. 1t Is the
want of this quality that is the disquali-
ioation of Gov Hayes for the Presi-
dency. It is not limited that, of his own
vOlition, he will originate and carry on
any scheme Of wicksdnsss He has not
sufficient character to institute any
plans, whether for COED or evil, and
herein is the danger. 1t is the 'infeEi-
bic purpose" Of the party managers that
he shall be naught but puppet in their
hands, and that in everything be shall
do their bidding to the letter. We have
seen the result Of their management Of
affairs under Grant Worse. far worse,
would it be If they had chance of tax
ing matters into their own hands, with
President incapable of forming an "in.
flexible purpose.

Suddenly a great bundle of clothes was

A Marriage in the Surf.
Providence Journal.


Last winter an elderly Baltimore gen.
tleman, proud of his wealth, discovered
that his daughter had dared to love q
young man far below her in the estima
ton of society. A week later the Balti-
more mansion was closed for the season,
and the names of father and daughter
soon after appeared on the register of
one of tbs hotels at NarragaDsett Pier.
There was with them a compsnion, out
wardiy treated as an equal, but in reality
a paid spy over the young lady's actions
and correspondence. But before a fort
night had elapsed the young lover at
Baltim ore received one morning a big
envelope containing a dainty little note
which filed him with joy unspeakable.
tie had a friend who was a clergyman
and before the sun had set that night
the two had long, earnest ference,
which resulted ext morning in the de-
parture Of the twain for Naragansett
Pier.
The old gentleman was forbidden by
his physician to battle in the surf, and
the spy hated the sea as the devil is said
to hate holy water The young lady
enjoyed her bath exceedingly, and, as
the most infatuated lover is apt to be
-disenchanted by the appearance Of his
ideal in a bathing dress, the father and
the spy concluded that no possible harm
could come to the "dear child" in the
water, and so the spy only sat on the
bank and watched. The lover and the
minister reached Providence in due time :,
and speedily won young lawyer over to
their cause. The lover then went to the
Pier, and, keeping out of the way of the
spy, suddenly appeared before the happy
girl in the water. A few minutes suf
feed for him to propose that they be
married the next day in the water, and
the lady promptly consented. Back
flew the enraptured lover to Providence,
legal formalities were quietly arranged
the lawyer invited confidential friend
as a witness, and the next day, when the
water was full Of people, party of five
might have been seen little apart from
the other bathers The marriage cere-
mony had to be suspended every few
seconds on account Of the breakers.
Then the foam leaped to claim the first
kiss from the lips of the bride, but the
rest of the little company relinquished
their privilege en- account of the atten-
ton such proceeding might attract.

NEW YORK FASHIONS.
THE AUTUMN CAPRICES IN FEMININE
ADORNMENT.
From Harpers' Bazar.

Fall bonnets have close fitting capote
fronts, with high-pointed crowns. The
front or brim is so close that only a
slight pleating of lace or silk, or else q
small twist, is allowed for face-trim-
ming, with perhaps a little cluster of
flowers stuck on the edge of the brim.
Many of the high-peaked crowns are too
prononce to please ladies of taste, but
happy medium is found in lower taper
ing crowns, that preserve enough Of the
sharp outline to be stylish. Velvet re
asserts itself as the handsOmest mate
rial for dress bonnets. Indications are
that felt has had its day of popularity,
except for second-best bonnets; the
coarseness of American felt has brought
it into disfavor. There is an effort to
revive plush as fabric for bonnets, but
it has not been largely bought by Amer
lean buyers. Long and ample strings to
be tied under the chin will be found on
most imported bonnets. These strings
are of the ribbons known to miliners as

Death in the Cigarette.

Lord LoughtOn, in the Quarterly Re
view, thinks that Americans restrain
themselves in the matter of public saok-
ing more than they used to. In one way
he is right; the lneerschaum is rot so
often seen in the street, nor are cigars;
but there are more cigarettes. The
Americans youth are getting into a de-
testable habit of smoking cigarettes, ths
papeTy smell of which is offensive to any
welI-regulated nose, and which produces
cancer in the lip, and-as the smoke is
generally inhale ed-troubles the lungs
and bronchial tubes. The race of Amer
leans will run down if the cigarette
habit becomes firmly settled in this cOuu-
try.

Would trouble my mind
I said when yeu went away,

Nor given you needless pain;
But we vex 'our own"
With look and tone
We might never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
You might give me the kiss of peace
Yet it might be
That never for me
The pain of the heart should cease

And smiles for the some time guest
But oft for " our own"

Though we love " our own - the best,
All lips with the curve impatient,
All brow with that look of scorn,
