tic to forego the observance of Deco

otto to forego the observance of Deco
ration Day.
The writer has made laborious
effort to justify himself in opposing
Decoration Day. He has done the best
he could, and perhaps as well as any
one could do in opposing it. But he
has entirely failed When stripped Of
it's special pleading, speciousness and
clap-trap, what he gives as his reasons
are no reasons. And we will venture
the opinion, If he will look away down
deep into the depths Of his conscious
ness, he will find a reason which he has
not given or even referred to, which
is the real reason. This reason is a
belief that there are at least two class
es OF people in our country, one of
which should be the ruling class and
the other or others subordinate, and
consequently he is opposed to equal
rights. And as the constitution and
laws Of our country secure equal
rights to all, and as the observance of
Decoration Day tends to perpetuate
equal rights, patriotism and the per-
petuity Of our country, he believes
there is more honor in the breach
than the observance Of it. And this
reason is the real reason why he op-
poses Decoration Day.

Secondhand People.
WILMOT, June 3. 49,


There is not more extensive family
in the world, nor larger class in civ
lllzed society than secondhand people.
How many do we number amongst our
acquaintance, how perpetually are
they turning up; they hunt US from
house to house Secondhand people
are those who never think for them
selves. They are not manufacturers,
but retail dealers. They listen to what
other people say, and repeat it as their
own. They read not to set their men
tai machinery in motion, but to store
their minds with ready-made thoughts.
We go out into society. and mingle
with all sorts Of people and nine out Of
'eyery ten are second-hand-not utter
ing their own thoughts, but those of
their party; not praising or dispraising
because thing is essentially right or
radically wrong, but because other peo-
pie their modellers, patterns-praise
or censure. We mingle with the fes-
tive throng, and they greet us with
their light laughter and silly nothings;
we seek secluSion, and they write to us
LII books; we plunge into the common
business Of the day. and they clink the
scales and talk to us over the counter;
we enter the sanctuary, and they preach
from the pulpit and shake hands with
us over the back Of the peWs. But for
a right-doWn, Out-and-out, secondhand
man, give me a good old parchment
Skinned lawyer. That's the man for
my money. Talk of law reform, talk
Of cheap law, talk of judgment without
two arguments each six hours long:
bless your heart, do you think you are
wiser than Chief Baron Rusty, or Mr..
Justice Fusty, who ruled it as it, and
ought not you to know, that arguing
from the well known principle laid
down in Brown Y Jones, Sd Muggins,
p. 40, the thing can never be made 9th
erWise than it is, and won't either, and
you are dismissed with contempt! Ev-
cry great discovery, invention, and I'M
provement is the result of originality.
The wisdom Of our ancestors had set
tied the matter with regard to the solar
system, making all other planets bow
down to this small speck of matter
that we call the world. But an origi-
nal man found out that the wisdom oil
our ancestors was altogether wrong
and utterIng his own great truthful
system, the secondhand people hooted
at him as a mailman, but by and byI
adopted that very system which they
had formerly despised And this is a
sample of the whole: The world owes
nothing to secondhand people, but ey-
etything to those who were guided
and actuated by the spirit Of self-reli-
ance-Who would not be eternally
doomed to speak after a certain num-
Der Of persons who CHANGED, right or
wrong, to say something or other before
them-who were not content with such
an idea Of truth as the man had Of roy
atty, who boasted that he had seen q
man who saw man who knew man
who saw the queen-who studied, like
Descartes, "hard without books" and
were not willing to fall asleep beneath
an open sky, which continually rained
soporifces. Yours, NED.

Dictated by nature. If the frontier line
instead of being drawn near due west
from Mount Ararat, be taken southwest
but very short distance by the fortress
of Bayazid, it will touch the head waters
of the Eastern Euphrates. Follow the
river along until, about the goth degree
OF longitude, it meets the Western Eu-
pirates. Ascend this river as far
as Ersinjian and thence draw a straight
line up to Trebizond. A great slice
this, but not one bit too large for the
Russian appetite. 1t would give them a
line of frontier marked out for the great
er portion of its course by the two arms
of that river, and guarded on the south
by the fortresses of Bayazid, Melazgero,
and Palu; would take them over the
Saganlig Mountains, which have hitherto
proved almost as unconquerable as the
mountains of Circassia, and would give
them Kars, Etzerum, Batuni, and Ire
bizond. Once settled upon this line they
can afford to wait. They would have
passed the last natural defenses Of Asia
Minor, and it's broad plains would lie
open to them whenever they chose to
excite another rebellion or get up any
equally plausible ground for a war.
