The seven States of Connecticut
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, stretching
from Narragansctt Bay to the Missis.
sIppl in an unbrOken line, are the con.
trolling States of the Union. They
contain nearly half its population and
wealth. They have over nineteen mil
lions of people. These States gave
Grant Il majority Of 327,l24 in 1872.
-Four Of them in the late election gave
Tildcn 53,GG2, and the other three gave
a majority OF 1916, or taking
the whole seven, a majority in them of
for Tilden, making a change
since 1872 in these great central States
of 1920. 1t is evident that these
have been badly "bulldozed."

a Monday Christmas.

Christmas Day fell on n Monday this
year, 1t fell on Monday in 1865, and
on that occasion the following vas un-
carthed from, it was stated, the Har-
leian MSS No. 1882, folios 1874:
If Christmas Day on Monday be,
a great wiutcr that year you'll see,
And full of wind both loud ana shrill;
But in summer, truth to tell,
High winds -kall there be, and strong,
Full OlLcmpcstS lasting long;
while battles they shall multiply,
And great plenty of beasts shall die.
They shall be strong each one and keen
lie Shall be found that s~tcalCtlI aught,
Tho thou be sick, thou diest not.
The year 1866 was the year of the
AuStrO -prussian war, Il year Of disas
trous gales, and n ear of cattle plague.
Again in 1871 Christmas Day fell on
Monday. The twelye-month following
that day saw us with cattle. plague in
;hc North aud some great storms; but
as to "baltles,' we must 80 back a few
months in 1871 for the capitulation oil
Paris and the conflict with the Com
munc. We have y Monday Christmas
for the third time within 4 dozen years.
