q Such a change as wOman's
temperance ballot asks for, is not
connected with high theories as to
natural rights to suffrage, nor as to
property qualifications.
10. Under English law, women
paving taxes can vote in municipal
and town elections, and this wider
privilege, which has worked well, IN
cludes the narrower one of wOman's
temperance vote.
IL. In questions where the decl-
sion is so easy as that between Ii
cense and no license, women's vote
would not often be uninteligent,
and so would not add to the mass
OF the ignorant suffrage
u. In questions so important "
the home, as those relating to tenn,
perance laws, wOman's vote wouio
not often be unused, and so would
not add essentially to the dangers OF
absenteeism at the polls, and Of un-
exercised suffrage.

Ewing's Opinion of the RepubIi-
can Party.

Opinions like the following, from
a man when there is no considera-
tions to warp them-when he speaks
forth the words of truth and sober
ness, are worthy of thoughtful at
tention. When these opinious were
uttered, Mr.. Ewing stood erect in
his pristine dignity and manhood,
and had not concluded to turn his
back upon himself and barter his
opinions and reputation for the pot
tage of Office. The following is
from his Kansas resolutions of May
Is, 1859:
The Republican party has on all
occasions evinced a deYotion to
popular rights and an attachment to
the best interests of the Nation that
deserve our approval; and has, by
its adherence to the principles of the
fathers of the Revolution, and its
earnest support of our cause of free
dom in Kansas, won our approba-
tion and gratitude.
The following is from speech of
Mr.. Ewing at Columbus, July 80,
1873:
= Allthese events have
forced me, though most reluctantly,
to the conclusion that the Democra-
tic party is powerless and ineffective
as an ally, and not a fit instrument
Of reform in American politics.

Our neighbors of the Standard makes a
savage onslaught upon Lit. Gov. Hicken-
looper, because he Saw fit to call in ques-
tion the patriotism of Gov. Seymour, in his
speech before the 1O5 regiment. And this
is the manner in which they speak of him:
Mr.. Hickenlooper abandoned the pur-
pose for which he was present, and pre-
ferred charges, which have no foundation
in truth, against Governor Seymour, of the
State of New York, a man whose patriot
ism cannot be questioned and whose record
is without ''spot or wrinkle" Mr.. Hicken-
loop made the declaration that Seymour
used his talents, and exerted his influence
in every way in his power to hamper the
government, and defeat the execution of
the laws of his country. This attack upon
Gov. Seymour IS false, is without justifca-
tion or excuse, and was designed as fling
at the party of which Gov. Seymour is one
of the leading representatives. No charge
of this kind can be sustained. His record
places his reputation as patriot above the
reach of the poisoned tongue of SANDER.

Let me put to any thinking man
be he farmer, or laborer, or trades
man, or merchant, or banker, or man
ufacturer, plain, simple question,
and ask for a candid answer. In
what kind of money will you prefer
to receive the wages of your labor
or the profits of your business-in a
kind of money whose value or pur-
chasing power is stable and can be
depended upon to remain virtually
the same from day to day and from
week to week, or in a kind of money
whose purchasing power is fuctuat-
ing and uncertain, so that you do
not know what it will buy from one
end of the week or of the month to
the other? Every sensible man who
in the least understands his own in
terests will answer, instinctively:
"Give us the irst-the money of sta
bic value; the money that will not
cheat us, so that we know what we
have" And that instinct is natural
and right. 1t would seem especially
natural at a moment when, after a
long and painful period of depression
we see at last a glimmer of daylight
again, and begin to hope that with
industry and prudent management
we shall work ourselves up once
more to a reasonable degree of COM
fort and prosperity. Carl Schatrz.

The cost of the London Police per head
is as nothing compared to that of New
York, for the men here receive 500 a
month, while they receive less than $40, yet
their work is to the full as efficiently done,
and without clubbing, while there is little
difference in the cost of living in the two
cities. A London policeman never carries
his club in his hand in fact tits kept under
his coat, and except on very rare occasions
he does not carry a revolver.

An eminent physician in England
has recently published a work on
longevity, in which, after showing
what has often been shown before,
that the average life of man has
been somewhat extended during the
past century, he gives many reasons
for thinking that this is but the be-
ginning of decided prOlongatiOn in
human existence, and that in no re-
mote future it may be as common to
hear of men living to period be-
tween eighty and ninety years of
age as in the past it has been to have
them reach the limit of three score
years and ten.

The more firmly that resumption
