Old and we'll established papers, with
constituencies representing the best classes
of society, are undoubtedly the most avail
able, the cheapest, and the mostremunera-
tive avenues for advertising, The con-
stituency of newspaper, the character,
the consuming quality, the taste and vario-
ty of its readers, their respect for it and
tho fidelity with which they and their
families read it, are facts to be considered
quite rs much rs the mere amount of cir
culation. -SWingfeM Republican.

Remark by John G. Whittier: " l feel
confident that President Hayes and cabi-
net hope to bring to this naton, through
harmony and peace, general prosperity
and good will; that he acts prompted by
the purest of motives, the noblest intrn-
tions; that those who blame HIM to-day
will bless in the future his devotion to tie
best interests of the Government.

Lucy Stone llhai verdict upon ColorL-

made record to stay for all time, that
while they had by law pat the right of
suffrage into the hands of every male pnu-
per, idiot, lunatic. thief and telon, they
on that day denied the same legal right to
every woman in that state. They began
our second century rs the tories Of the first
century did, by denying political rights,

that this was now subject Of considera-

Evening Telegram speaking of
heaven: IAN endurable state of ex.
istence can be imagined in which there
is neither marriage nor giving in mar
riage, as we understand the institution
on this ~sublunary sphere; but in such a
world, there would, at least, be that
a%ttrition of ideas and emotion that is
due to a difference of sex. This would
give ~piquancy to such q life, and the pro-
hibitien to many would, perhaps, lend
additional piquaBcy,"
