Epitomizing the action of the Demo-
cratic party since 1855 on the great public
questions of the day, it appears:
1. The tariff. That the party, since
1866, has favored absolute free trade, a
revenue tariff, "incidental protection"
and the remission Of the question to the
congressional districts; and, at the pre-
sent moment, has named as its candidate
for the Presidency a Pennsylvania Pro.

2. The currency. In 1868 the party
favored the payment of the bonds in
greenbacks, and in 1876 it denounced the
resumption act as "a hindrance to re.
SUMPTION" but now favors honest
money"
8 Reconstruction. The constitutional
amendments were declared Revolutionary
and void" in 1868; their rigid enforce
ment demanded in 1872; accepted in
form in 1875; and broken in letter and
spirit by the Southern Democrats from
the day they were adopted till now.
4. The War was pronounced failure
in 1854; its results partially agreed to in
1868 Sand the soldiers and sailors have
been thanked in every Democratic plat
form since.
5. The Democratic party has wholly
abandoned the ante War theory of the
party in regard to public improvements
and has adopted the Republican theory
the Southern States lately in rebellion be-
ing now the most clamorous for appro
priations from the Public Treasury.
6. The Democratic party now comes
before the country without single affirm
alive principle except such as 1t has
stolen from the Republican party, and the
one original issue of State supremacy liz
National elections, which Is lingering
relic of the exploded doctrine of State
rights.
Z. With emancipation and negro suf
TRACE disappeared the one cohesive prin
ciple of the original Democracy, that is
slavery. Since that time it has shifted its
ground in every campaign, and resembles
the old party whose name it bears only In
it's total lack of all principle, Its hostility
to the idea OF Federal unity and suprem
acy, and its greediness tor the spills Of
office.

hobby was his hatred of the popular
voice, and when the reform bill of 1882
passed the Lords, he vowed that he would
never again sit in the House, and kept
his word.
There was terrible scene in the Lords
during the Regency debate in 1888. Thur
low, who up to that time had cultivated
the people and posed as Democrat, sud-
denly concluded that his interest lay on
the Kings side and made a SUPERFICIAL
speech, winding up with the words, "And
when forget my King may my God for
get me-" There was shout OF execration
from the mob in the corridors, and Wilkes
who was standing under the throne, ex-
claimed, "Forget you! He will see you
first" Burke, with equal wit and
with no profaneness, muttered, "The best
thing that can happen to your; and even
the lords in the Chamber cried out, ooh,
what rascal" Wilkes told the Speaker
privately one day that he had petition to
present from set of the greatest Sound
rels and miscreants upon earth, but when
called upon in the House to present it he
said with the gravest possible face, "Sir,
1 hold in my hand petition from most
intelligent, independent, and enlightened
body of men," The debate on the Corn
laws was an acrimonious one, but under
Peel, Palmerston, and Derby, three great
parliamentarians, members were taught
to conduct the proceedings with dignity
and decorum, and there were no more
violent scenes until Mr.. Parnell and his
associates of the "third party" appeared
in the Chamber.

[ From the Boston Journal


The floating population of China is
every port. To build and repair their
vessels is branch of industry I have
never seen described, but it must be enor-
nous. Millions, probably, of families live
in them and never go on shore. There is
no craft so small, not even the 'sampan"
that attends q foreign ship, but has room
for its idols of gods, before which the
owner burns his sjoss paper" | will
digress here little to tell OF the boatmen
of Shanghai. They are mostly from the
distant seaports of Ningpo and Swallow,
being of harder race and better sailors
than the men of this province. By some
mysterious telegraphy they know when a
ship is coming, and several lie waiting for
a Job at the fred buoy" outside Woosung.
Each one has the name of the ship he
served last painted in a conspicuous place
aft. The one engaged had Halloween"
and his name, "Sam," underdeath. Sam
is a cognomen all Chinese boatmen glory
In.

the rest, Is about sixteen feet long, and
about the shape of half peach stone. A

What this is for cannot make out The
forward half is decked over, and under

midship section abaft this is not decked,

Sam arranges himself for slet p somehow

his "lares and penates." Abaft the seat

place for Sam, or poop deck. where he
propels the boat. He unships this deck
his fire. place, kettle and other domestic

I must not forget to tell you how they

They have gigantic oar which they

Chinaman can do it), and by means of
cord attached to the oar and the boat
they scull, or ''eulo," as they call it, at
very rapid rate. Vessels of larger size
are sculled this way, by means of beams
projecting from the sides, 10 the end gof
which an oar is attached. The tides at
Shanghai run very swift; and the winter
winds are furious and piercing; but
these fellows scull right along against
wind and tide. When all moored to.

form large community, and discuss the
events of the day or gamble half the
night. There Is nothing done within
many miles of Shanghai but they know
it before any one else.

Volcanic Activity in Asia and Africa

The records of outbreaks of volcanic
force in Africa, at any period, are rare.
Last spring the volcanic district between
the mainland and the Canaries was un-
usually active, and al the same time Mad
agascar was visited with several shocks
of earthquake. Toward the end OF the
year these we're reported, and extended to
the mainland OF Africa, the town of Ibo,
In Mozambique, being destroyed in the
early part of November. With the excep-
ton OF three severe shocks of earthquake
felt on July II, at Cairo, and in the neigh.
borhood of the Great Pyramid, these are
all the records of the kind from Africa.
Asis, on the other hand, has been in
one part or anothersthe scene of lncessant
and most severe outbreaks. Early in
March the Himalaya region was generally
subject to Shocks" which were followed
at the end of the month and till April by
series of disastrous earthquakes In Per-
STA. Between March % and April 3,

strOyed, and more than fifty severely dam.
az, d, while the loss of human life was
computed at over 1000. The villages
Mianeh, Manan and Tark, which we're
completely demolished with nearly every
inhabitant, contained 500 inhabitants
apiece. The same period was one of IN
usual activity In Java. From March %
to June incessant earthquakes were felt
all parts of the island. The volcanoes
of Smeru and Gede emitted enormous
quantities OF lava and ashes, the latter
being carried great distances, and several
towns and villages were injured or de-
stroyed, and many lives lost, especially at
Tjandjoer, near Batavia. On June 10 the
scene was changed 10 Northwest China,
and throughout that month and the next
a succession of earthquakes was expert

thrown out from the assures, whole towns

1000 people persisted in different towns

year must have exceeded 1000

the poor and numerous race whom we
call coolies" can seldom contrive to edu-
cate their offspring at all. The lettered
arlstocracy generally springs from OBJ
scure little shops, from booths in the sub
urbs OF cities, or from farms where the

WHAT WOMEN SHOULD BE-Very few
women are qualified, either by nature or
training, to play the part of judicious
domestic providence, unrestrsined by any
other influence; and the abdication of the
husband is generally attended by humil-
iation and suffering to the rest; for, with
out balance of power, we may expect
abuses to steal in, whether states or fami-
lies are victfAized by an unfortunate ad-
justment of circumstances. For it is men
on whom the stern and more serious re-
sponsibilities of existence fall. Men who
bear the burden and heat of the day, hus-
bands and brothers who give their lives
for their country, and die by thousands of
every lingering torture under foreign
sky, they must act often under heavy
mental pressure and distress; while
women, who are not generally led by any
other bias save their judgment and intel
lect, may indulge hysterical views of
everything at their ease and at home.
Marriage protects women, who, in return,
are expected to embeilish life, soften Its
trials, and with womanly graces, smiles
and kindness avert the threatening clouds
of adversely from bursting in unchecked
violence on the family circle. 1t is fine
field of enthusiasm, action and enterprise,
in which women may enlist, and the more
highly toned their moral ethics the better
they may form character, direct aims,
soothe, despair, and by their delicate tact,
instincts, and perception, assist in miti-
eating much cruel suffering and disap-
pointment. Women should represent
beauty of some kind or another. There
is nothing man so much detests as q
masculine woman; she expects to snare
his equality; while at the same time re.
fusing to accept his claims and RESPONSE

This was received with appreciation
and satisfaction by the audience, who fully
cOmprehended what Sir Anthony, no
doubt, desired the colony to understand.
The allusion to Lady Musgrave's and his
own desire to do all that was in their pow
or to promote the best interests of the
people of Jamaica, and the prayer that an
all-wise and ever ruling Providence should
guide them and direct them in the accom-
plishment of these designs, closed the re-
ply, and inspired the confidence, of all
who listened to it. Three cheers were
then given for Sir Anthony Musgrave, and
three for Lady Musgrave. and s'three more
for MI. Newton'-these were all given
with gusto and amidst waving Of hats and
handkerchiefs.n
The Cleaner says in reference to homo
supplies of food =
"The Governors of the Jamaica Institute,
deslrous of stimulating the home produc-
ton OF food now imported, offer prizes for
the best sailed beef, sailed pork, fish from
Island waters preserved by dry process,
and like fish preserved by wet process.
The particulars of these prizes OF Elo and
ELS will be found in our advertising
columns. We look upon this movement as
a feeler towards a more important and
comprehensive local contest, under the
auspices of the Institute"
