caucus of his party, or, in ecclesiastical
cases, of his church, and is always tri-

Two years ago the quadrennial election
for President occurred. Senior Tilden
received majority of quarter of q
million of votes but the party in power
favoring his opponent, and threatening
to use the army in favor of the latter,
compromise was affected, by which fifteen
of the purest men of both parties were
chosen to decide the question. These
fifteen pure men proved their superiority
by voting in court exactly as they had
voted at the election. So pure were the
fifteen purest men found in Sodom The
selfgoverning Anglo-Saxons at the North
are now investigating this affair, and
uncovering a mass of corrupt bargain and
sale such as never disgraced the vilest
pueblo of North or South America. No,
Senor Lerdo, if you wish to gain the suf-
frages of Mexicans, you must hold up
loftier exemplar than that of the corrupt,
anarchical pepublic depotism of the
North. We are not yet prepared to ex-
change our bull-fghts for your prize-ring,
our religious liberty for your Methodist
State Church, nor the legacy of Bolivar
for either an Austrian scepter or mock
republic Disgusting military plutocracy.

What a Mexican Newspaper Thinks
About the United States.

We propose giving to our beloved coun-
try Constitution and Government found
ed upon the great principles of the Unit
ed States of the North. So says the party
Of Lerdo. Let US impartially examine
the merits of this famous Government
which the gentleman of the Lerdist party
patronizingly hold up for the admiration
of the defendants of Montezuma and the
Conquistadores. The United States OF
America are nominally Republic, prac-
tically plutocracy qualified mobocracy.
There money is the lever which moves
the vast machinery of politics, society,
religion itself. Is it not sol Let US take
a glance at their history for the past thir-
ty years:
Thirty years ago the "Gringos" of the
model republic began the work of regen-
Grating Mexico by waging war upon their
republican sisters, and robbing US of half
our fairest territory. They seized the
great domain of Texas-larger than all
Spain and Portugal-and Immediately
converted it into land of negro slavery.
They then proceeded to fight among
themselves about converting the rest of
our stolen territory into slave States
and seventeen years ago, the selfgovern-
ing citizens of that self-vaunted land Of
qualed on this continent in duration, cost
and bloodshed. Incidental to this reign
of anarchy our own Mexico was made the
prey of European intrigue and cursed
with disastrous foreign invasion
Thirteen years ago the superiority of
anglo Saxon selfgovernment" culmina-
ted in the assassination of the ruling
President, for which they valiantly hang
ed woman. Two years later the Presi-
dents successor was impeached for mis-
demeanors. Ten years ago a military
chieftain, in whose character the human
ity of Santa Anna was combined with
the abnegation of Pizarro, was chosen to
the Presidency. At the end of his four
years term Of office he was almost unani-
mously reelected. He was very popu-
lar ruler. During his term of office the
Vice President of the country, the Secre-
tary of the Interior (or Haclenda,) the
Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary
of War, the Secretary of the Navy, the
Minister to England, the President
Private Secretary, the Speaker of the
House of Representatives, and an army
of minor dignitaries, were all found guilty
of public or private robbery. Some were
imprisoned, but the popular President
Immediately pardoned them. A public
man in the United States is rarely
brought to trial for crime. He either
valves trial by pleading his privilege,

A Tender Memory.

A little footstep pattering on the floor,
A golden head laid gently on my knee;
A shadow darkening all the earth and sky,
And life is sad and desolate to me.
Sweet lips half parted in peaceful smile;
The light of God upon that baby brow;
A hush upon the tiny waXen face
Our darlng's but a tender mem'ry now.
Our grief nigh spent, we try to calmly think,
To ask ourselves half Sternly-Is it right
That we should mourn that to eternal rest
Her infant form was laid by US tonight?
In later years her footsteps might have turned
Aside from paths that point the heavenly
gate;
Perchance she might have heard the awful
words
And, now? All, yes! our darling calmly sleeps;
Earth holds for her nor hope, nor grief, nor
loss,
Another life has gained the pardon won
With such deep pain upon the bitter cross.

Gethsemane.

In golden Youth, when seems the Earth
A Summer-land for singing mirth,
When souls are glad, and hearts are light,
And not shadow turks in sight.
We do not know it, but there lies
Somewhere, yelled under evening skies,
A garden all must sometime see;
GethSemane, Gethsemane-
Somewhere lies our GethSemane.
With joyous steps we go our ways;
Love lends a halo to the days;
Light sorrows fall like clouds afar;
We laugh, and say how strong we are;
We hurry on, and hurrying, go
Close to the border-land of Woe,
That waits for you and waits for me;
GethSemane, GethSemane-
Forever waits GethSemane.
Down Shadowy lanes, across strange streams
Bridged over by our broken dreams,
Behind the misty caps of years,
Close to the great salt fount of tears,
The garden lies. Strive as you may,
You cannot miss it in your way,
All paths that have been, or shall be,
Pass somewhere through GethSemane.
All those who journey, soon or late
Must pass within the gardens gate
Must kneel alone in darkness there,
And battle with some fierce despair.
God pity those who cannot say,
"Not mine, but Thine" who only pray,
"Let this cup pass" and do not see
The purpose in GethSemane;
Gethsemane, GethSemane-
God help us through Gethsemane!

 We join heartily in this lroI ose l public celebration, and did not really need urging, to open our columns for the ftTthcrancc of the good cause. We wanted to ascertain the sentiment of the ladies and gentlemen, and have received sufficient encouragement from them to warrant Us in calling meeting to be held next Monday evening in Glovcr's Hall Main St. Mr. Norman B.

The meeting will commence about 8 o'clock D. m, and all who are interested will endeavor to attend. All soldiers and members of the Grand Army are expected to be present and help to perfect the necessary arrangements for 8 grand parade.
