How to Succeed.

The first requisite to success is not to
undertake an unwise and impracticabie
thing. For this reason the advice often in.
calculated by wise and great men has been
to give much time and reflection to the
formotion of plans Be slow to decide;
but, having resolved, be prompt to act.
1t is not sufficient, by any means, to be
prompt in beginning to act. This is sasy
to every one 1t is the continued, perseyer-
ing, unhagging activity which, alone, ac-
complishes great results.
The temptations which besets ones steps
at every stage to deliver his attention from
the main pursuit he has fixed on, are most
innumerable, and to the irresolute and
weak they are found irresistible. This ac-
counts for numerous failures.
If man has not attained to what he
started for it will almost always be found
that he has been attending to something
else. The song of the bird by the wayside
fell upon his ear and charmed his eye, and
he fingered when his pace should have
been onward and firm and quick.
If you would insure success in your I'M
dertaking, whatever it may be, let nothing
divert your attention from it Leave moth.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND TIL
NATIONAL BANKS,

The following is from the Terre
Haute Express:
The national banks have been in ex
istence for fifteen years, and in thai
time no bill for the abolishing of the
national banks has ever been reported
bya committee, or brought to vote
in the house Representatives.
We learn now for various letters and
and special dispatches from Washing
ton that the Democratic leaders and
members of congress are, in the main
hostile to the banks, and that they
purpose to secure the unifcation ot
their party by begging a crusade
against the banks.
What is the cause of this new born
zeal? Is the banking system any
worse than it has been through all Of
the fifteen years it has been in exis
tence, or during the four years that
the Democrats have controlled the
lower house of Congress? No; it is
the same system that the country has
had for fifteen years; it is no better
and worse than it has been.
We will explain the new born hos
tility Of the Democratic party to the
banks.
The Green-back anti-bank party has
polled Il million of votes in the cleo
tions of 1878.
That colossal vote shows which way
public sentiment is tending.
If the Greenback party had not
stood up in solid column a million
strong, the Democratic party would
not have raised hand against the
banks.
The Greenback party has faced this
taunt from the beginning: "You can
accomplish nothing" But it has ac-
complished something. 1t has forced
the Democratic party into aposition of
hostility to the banks. 1t will accom-
plish more: 1t will force division of
the voters of the country upon the vi
tai questions of currency and labor, in
stead of the dead issues of the past.
The National party must march
straight forward, turning neither to the
right nor to the left. 1t must close up
its ranks for the crowning conflict of
1886. If the Democratic party choos-
es to follow in the lead of the Nationals
by antagonizing the banks, well and
COED. Intelligent Democrats will soon
see that it is better to come to the front
with the party which has fought the
money power from the beginning than
to lag behind with one which never
knows what position to take until it
has learned what is popular with the
people.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Dec. 7th, 1878
A dispute of some Importance is already
begun among members of the House Com
miteee on Appropriations about funds to
prosecute election frauds as asked for by
the President in his message One party
is opposed to appropriating single dolla,
for the purpose and the other is urging a
larger appropriation with all the ruin il
possesses. The result cannot be foreseen
with any certainly but there is likelihood
on the part of the House to refuse to ap.
propriate the funds mentioned, reverse
decision by the Senate, and dead lock,
at least, of both Houses
