French homes and family life have been
much misrepresented. As they have no Anglo

not always at Its best 1t is not every visitor who

A MIND on the alert and compelled by its owner
10 do thorough work, according to its bent or
power, need not be restless uneasy OF excitable.
Unfortunately many take the extreme of laziness
or inertness, or else of applying harmful forcing
of memory for instance, how many mourn about
their shocking memories. This is largely matter
of will for if one with sufficient force and energy
chooses to make his mind retain what he reason
ably wishes to remember, he certainly can do so.
One very good reason for forgetting things is that
they are not understood. The mind can be re-
duced to such condition, that impressions are
made upon 1t disappear as soon as made. impress
sions are thus evanescent because one is too lazy
or Indifferent TO exert his mind. One may go
about like those who, "having eyes see not and
having ears hear not" With such persons the
organs of hearing and sight receive and transmit
the physical impressions but the mind does not
retain them, it barely is conscious of them.

noon, while Rev. Mr.. and Mrs F5ear were lunch

From Judge Poland's Report Feb. Is, 1S73-Gar
fields Testimony Perjured.
The facts in regard to Mr. Garfield, as
found by the committee, are that he
agreed with Mr.. Ames to take ten shares
of Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay
for the same. Mr.. Ames receired the
eighty per cent. dividend in bonds and
sold-them for ninety-seven per cent,
also received the sixty per cent. cash
dividend, which, together with the
price Of the stock and interest, Lett q
balance of 1920. This sum was paid
over to Mr.. Garfield by a check on the
ergeant-at-Arms, and Mr.. Garfield
then understood this sum 9ods the balance
Of djojdeHdS after paying for tie stock.
From the New York Times, Feb. 10, 1878.
Messrs. Kelley and Garfield present
most distressing figure. Their partici-
patton in the Credit Mobilier affair is
complicated by the most unfortunate
contradictions of testimony.
From the New York Times, Feb. 20, 1873.
The character of the Credit Mobilier
was no secret. The source of its prodts
were well known at the time Congress
men bought it. Though Oakes Ames
NAV have succeed in concealing his own
motive, which was 20 bribe Congress
men, their acceptance of the stock was
not on that account innocent. The dis
honor of the act as a participation in an
obvious fraud, still remains.
Some Of them have indulged in testi-
mOny with reference to the mater
which has been contradicted. The COM
mittee distinctly rejects the testimony of SEQ
eraI Of tie members. This can only be 607le
on the ground that it IS untr.ee. Bat IN
true testimony giU6n 9tza3er oath as morally
If not legally, pes5ss'y'
It is t'.e clear duty of Congress to Wis
it with punishment all who took Credit
Mobilfer stock from Oakes Ames.
From the New York Tribune, Feb. 10, 1873.
James A. Garfield of Ohio had ten
shares; never paid dollar; received
1929, which, after the investigation be-
gan, he was anxious to have considered
as loan from Mr.. Oakes AInes to him
sell. ef.s4- J.. E.se3,l 5.3
Well, the wiokedness of all of it is that
these men betrayed the trust OF the peo-
pie, deceived their constituents, and by
.eVasions and falseho0ds confessed the
aosacuon to be disgraceful.
Fson the New Yosk Tribune, Feb. &c, 1873.
Mr. Ames establishes very clearly The
point that he was not alone in this of
fence. Bbe Is to be erpelled for bribery, the
men q07tO aoere 6rt6ed should 90 acSta ham.

KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
That in the House of Representatives,
in 1885, Mr.. Garfield introduced a bill
''to reduce and improve the military
by discharging one Major
General."5 The provisions of this bill
were aimed at General Hancock, and
in advocating its passage Mr.. Garfield
said: ..l.
"This genesal was sent into the dis
trict of Louisiana and Texas with a law
of Congress in his hand, a law that COM
mands him tOsee that justice is admin
istered among the people and that no
pretense of civil authority shall deter
him from performing his duty, and yet
we find that officer giving lectures in
the form of proclamations and orders on
what ought to be the relation between
civil and military departments of the
government. We see han asiRg a general
order fps ar7Scb he declares hat the cicit should
not gre tcay before the military. We hear
him -1ec1aring that he finds nothing in
the laws or Louisiana and Texas to war
rant his interference in the civil admin
isJraffon of those States.
