guration of Hayes and Wheeler,un-
der the circumstances, was wise,
unselfsh and patriotic. The Dem
ocrats in Congress agreed to leave
the whole matter to arbitration.
The arbitrators refused to hear the
testimony Of the gross and we'll
known frauds perpetrated in Lou
isiana and Florida, and declared
Hayes and Wheeler elected, al
though they were beaten by n4cre
than three hundred thousand votes!
The Democratic party was bound
in honor to abide this unjust award.
Any attempt to inaugurate the can
didates really elected would have
been revolution and would have in
volved the whole Union in a bloody
civil war.
South Carolina is now once more
under self-government, and so are
all the other Southern States and
God forbid that Grant and his army
and his office thieves should ever
again have it in their power to dis
turb these Democratic govern
nents. It is all nonsense to talk
about dissolving old parties and
forming new ones. Their princi-
pies are inherent in our Federal
Union. and must always exist, no
matter by what name political par
ties may be called. The Democrats
are for a strict construction of the
Federal Constitution, and the Re-
publicans for latitudinalian con-
struction of that great charter. The
Democrats are in favor of States
Rights, free Trade and no monopo-
lies, self-government and the equal
protection of all the people, an
economical and honest administra-
ton of the Federal Government.
The Republican party under every
name they have assumed and dis
graced, from that OF Federalists to
that of Republicans, have been op-
posed to the rights of the States
and free trade. They have always
favored rnonopolies and legislated
for the benefit of wealthy capital
lists. They have always favored a
prodigal expenditure of public mo-
ney and high salaries. In times
past they have attempted the lib
erty of the press and the freedom
of speech. They have set the mil
itary over the civil authorities Of
the country and disregarded per-
sonal rights and personal liberty.
All the accessions of territory to
the Republic have been made by
the Democratic party and bitterly
opposed by the Republicans.

NEWFOUNDLAND COD.
How the Fish are Cured and Shipped.

A recent letter from St. Johns,
\. F., to the Montreal Gazette
says: We are now busy shipping
our dried Goldfish for foreign mark.
cts. 1t is curious to note the his
tory of Goldfish from the moment
when, on the hook of the fisher
man, it is dragged from its native
element till it disappears down
the human throat on the banks OF
the Amazon, the Parana: the Ia
GUS or the PO. After few cX-
plring wrigglcs-and it is com
fort 20 be informed by naturallsts
that fish are almost insenslblo to
pain-the cod is flung from the
isherman's boat upon the rough
STAGE where it is received by
the throat, who, with a sharp
knife lays open the flesh across
the throat and down the belly,
and passes it to the 'hcader.' This
operator proceeds to extract the
liver, which is dropped into d yes
sci by his side, to to converted IN
to cold liver oil. lie then extracts
the entrails and wrenches OFT the
head, and throws these into anoth-
er receptacle, 10 be preserved tor
the farmer, to mix with bog ana
earth, thus forming q most tertll-
izing compost for his fields. The
tongues, however, are taken out,
and also the sounds, and these,
fresh or picked, are an excellent
article of food. The fish IS then
passed to the splitter who BY q
dexterous movement cuts out the
back nearly to the tail, and
thus lays the fish entirely open,
and capable Of being laid fat on
it's back. This is the incest part
of the operation: and the splitter
always commands higher wages
than the other operators. The
ssaitcr' next takes the fish and
washes it well from all parcels OF
blood, salts it, and places it IN
piles to drain. After lying the
proper length Of time it IS washed
and spread to dry ON the flake,
which is formed Of spruce boughs,
supported by a framework, rest
ing on upright poles. Here the
cod are spread out individually to
bleach by exposure to the sun and
air, and during this process re-
ouire constant attention. At night,
or or the approach Of rain, they
are made up into little round
| heaps with the skin outside: in

WAS FORTUNE.

AS ialr as 4 man ever looked up
on, pure as daisy, was Iva Lorne
with a fortune of a hundred thous-
and in her own undisputed right !;
and her guardian had just tilted
himself back in his chair, and
looked straight in Fred Jasper's
handsome eyes, and told him that
if he wanted Iva Lorne and her
fortune, he might have her.
A hundred thousand and Iva
Lorne, it would set him up for
life, make him Independent for all
time. Only he loved Bessie Camp
bell.
Fred Jasper was a fine fellow !;
fne-looking, tall, manly, with bold,
handsome gray eyes that liked to
look and smile at u pretty girl,
and with q caressing mode Of
speech and way of manner that
was not easy to resist; and Mr..
Cathcrton had frankly, deliberate
ly told this young man that there
was waiting for him Iva Lorne
and the golden handfuls She could
bring him.
Of course Fred enjoyed the COM
plimcnt, but that argument Was
not so powerful iii its effects as
Mr.. Catherton had intended.
But, sir, you have not taken
Miss LONE into consideration.
Remember she has never seen me
! Or
Mr.. Cathcrton interrupted him
with a curious smile.
Not being versed in women
and their ways, or the sacredness
of their condolences | don't know
whether or not | betray a
trust when l tell you Iva has
seen you, and-well Fred, will you
come up to dinner tonight and be
introduced ?
So that was how that evening
Fred Jasper came to be sitting ut

temptation suddenl y strengthened
and took Il most seductive form,
when the elaborate dinner was
over, and Fred insisted on accom-
pan ying Iva to the sitting-room
instead Of tarrying over the wine
with Mr.. Catherton, that gentle
man gave a smile Of assent that
was like triumph. and Iva fus h.

about WOMEN OF TWENTY-FIVE
IEARs.-The man who meets and
loves the woman Of twenty. five is
truly fortunate, and she is equally
fortunate in meeting and loving
him, says writer in a feminine
journal. At that age she seldom
deceives herself and is seldom de-
ce;ved. She may not have, she is
not likely to have then, her first
sentimental experience; but such
experience at such an age is moro
than sentimental and rarely ever
fleeing. She looks back at the
youths she imagined she was en-
amored Of between sixteen and
eighteen, or often twenty-five, and
they are more than indifferent or
rcpellant to her they arc ridicu-
tous; and in some sort she. as she
then was, is ridiculous to herself.
She cannot but think what she es-
capped she cannot but be grateful
to her destiny that her sympathies
and affections have been reserved
for worthy object and q higher
end. At twenty-five, if ever, 3
woman knows and estimates her.
self. She is less liable to emotion
al or mental mistakes; she is far
surer ct her future, because she
feels that her face is, TO q certain
extent, within her own hands.
Not only is she more lovelier and
more lUvable, broader and strong
er than she has been, but her we'd
ded happiness and powers Of en-
duruuco are in a manner guaran-
teed.

this rebuke on me.
I sat out on the meadow, he saw me there
to-day;
But in his loving reverence, he stood quite
far away,
And said, 'tGad I'd come nearer did not
think you proud.
Maid, am welcomc?" "Welcome" the
Echo answered load
Then came he to me, aud we sat together on
the ground;
He called me his own maiden, and wound
his arm around,
All begged that wound grant him, out on
the hill beyond,

He heard it, and still closer he drew me 10
his side,
Believing had spoken each time the Echo
cried;
"Oh, let me-" qnoth he tenderly, "call
thee henceforth my bride,
And as thy hearts pledge kiss mc!' 'kiss
mel" the Echo sighed.
Now see, dear, how it happened that
Robin kissed my brow;
That wicked, wicked Echo! it makes me
angry now.
And, mother! see, he's coming-I can hear
him at the gate
To tell you how he loves me, and learn from
you his fate.
Is Robin, dearest mother, not worthy mine
to be?
Then tell him that the Echo deceived him
cruelty;
But if you think we're fitted each others
joys to share,
Tell him, in accents loving, was the Echo

Have gloom or have double suns?

We :ose the roadway here,
We swim the rivers Of wrath,
