the United States bank. Henry
Clay headed the bank party pm
der the name and style of Wings.
The Democratic party was suc-
cessf'ul in 1923 in clectiBg Jack
son President of the United
States. Under his administra=
ton the bank was abolished.
In 1910 the Wings elected Gen.
Harrison; hegdied soon after his
inauguratiop.. Tyler, his sue
cessor, vetoed a bill to recharter
the United States bank. The
bank question ceased to be an
issue until the war. In the
meantime the slavery question
became an issue; up to. 1852
Wings and Democrats were for
slavery; in this canvass the Dem
ocl,ats were successful in elect
ing their ticket. Men that ia /.
yQreds slavery and regarded it as
aiecal question and an institu-
ticn'belonging to the States, af-
ter Il 81 fell in With the Demo

This alarmed the Southern peo-
pie upon the rslayeiy question.
The Democratic party was the
only party frespectability that
favored the institution. In 1860
the Democrats divided upon the
question. The ultra-Democrats
insisted, that it was the duty Of
the general government to pro-
tect the institution IN the terri
tories; the republicans claimed
the government should prohibit
its extension You see there
was unity Of opinion Of ultra
Democrats and Republicans on
the pewefs of the general gov
ernTncnt; but one wanted to use
that power to protect. the other
to destroy slavery. In 1860
Abraham Lincoln was elected
President by the Republicans.
The ultra7Demoerats, or lead
ers of the slave idea, declared
the onlytsafeiy for slavery was
secession Of the slave States and
to establish d Southern Confed-
eraey; this was attempted, the
result was war, the destruction
Of slavery and the seeding
States forced back in the Union.

FATHER MACKONOCHIES VISIT.

Among the famous Englishmen who have
crossed the Atlantic to find out for themselves
what manner of men Americans may be, few
have entered upon their quest so quietly and
unobtnsvely as Father Mackonochie has done.
He landed in New-YOrk several weeks ago,
and after visiting the sums and tenement-housc
sections of the city, set out upon short tour of
the leading American cities, preaching three
times in Philadelphia on Sunday last, attending
even song in Baltimore on Monday, md IN
tending to return from Chicago in time to sail
for Liverpool at the close of the month. While
he has been cordially received by the Sad-
"vanced" clergy of the Episcopal communion
In the cities through which he has passed. he
has not aimed to make any stir. ana has stu
diously avoided topics Of q controversial order
when he has been in the pulpit. The three
sermons which be preached in PHILADELPHIA
would have escaped criticism in any evangelical
church lie is making the journey an Eng
lisbman and not as a Rituahst, and when his
vacation ends he hopes to return to the arduous
parish work and heated controversies Of Ho-
born and the ecclesiastical courts, without
having given offence TO any section of the great
religious body which ailectinnately regards the
Anglican communion rs its mother church A
controyersialist who goes about 50 modestly,
screening himself from public observation,
studylng the wOrkaday life of the poor and
avoiding theological strife deserves to be
understood even in county where little SYM
paihy may be felt for his pecularities of prac-
tice.
Those peculIarities are popularity supposed to
be an undue fondness for ecclesiastical mill
anery " and supeIhuous indulgence in genu-
hexions in Christian worship. This inference
is n natural one. for the celebrated case of
Martin vs.. Mack0nochie, which in various
stages of procedure and before one tribunal
after another has attracted public attention
since 1868, has been grounded upon the Orna-
ments RuDIc. The ak nsIgcs which were con
demned by the Highest court oil appeal in Il is
case were The position of the celebrant, euchar-
isic yeatmcnts altar lights, incense, the m xed
chalce, AMI wafer bread. The twelve years of

must have other and less reputable means or

controversy which was restricted to such teen
nicaties as the position of the clergyman in the
chancel, and the cut, color and trimmings OF
bis vestmenis seemed to lack the breadth OF the
Tractaian movement as well as the dignity
and research of Puseyism. 1t was III. new
mans aim to prove TINT those who had SUD
scritcd to the Thirty nine Articles could logic
ally accept the great body of Roman doctrine.
DR.. Pusey's great labor has been directed to-
ward establishing the identity OF the Church OF
England with Primitive Christianity ana
Patrlstlc teaching. In comparison with these
larger issues, Father Mackonochie's controversy
seems small indeed In his own estimation he
is contcndinS for grand principles. The east
ward position, the eucharis'ic vestments, the
altar lights, the incense. the water mingled
with wine, and the unleavtned bread, he Ioohs
upon as so many signs of approach 10 the
common meeting ground OF the fliinitiVe'
Medipval, Continental and Anglican Churches,
for which both the author OF Tract No. 30 and
the venerable DR.. Pusey imagined that
they were opening the way. A practical public,
however, cannot perceive that Martin vs.. Mack
squabble over chance furniture and eccleslas-
teal tailoring.
But a prac zeal public, that has small respect
for the Ornaments dispute, cannot help admir-
inga Christian minister who works among the
London poor with untIrng energy and from the
most generous impulses. ST. Adams, Holbom IS
not fashionable church. 1t Is situated in the
heart of what was once the viiest quarter OF the
metropolis, and the people of the parish, to
whose physical and spiritual needs he minis
ters, are the poorest Of the poor. Among them
he has Iabored most efficiently, organizing day
and Sunday schools, guilds and societies, and
making the parish church the centre OF good in
huence in a district that was once den OF
thieves. Labors such as these command respect
the world over. A man who worked less and
under more agreeable conditions could not so
well afford to he peculiar in minor respects.

THE WoRKINGMANS FRIEND IN MISSOURI

THE WORKINGMAN'S FRIEND IN MISSO URI.
Is the Democracy the party of the working
man; the parry of popular rights; the party
of low taxes and cOnsiderate collection 1t
claims to be. But the farmers and small
landowners of Missouri think that they have a
strange sample Of these virtues in the admin
istration of the law of 1877 for the collection
of back taxes. There are arrears Of taxes
under every Government. Missouri, doubtless,
has her share of the annoyance. But why
need she more than other States enhance
taxes 10y extravagant costs, or pounce with
extraordinary alacrity on delinquents, or at
the first blow ccniscate q landowners prop
ery forever7 Otber States have almost always
accorded protection to the landowner to the
latest moment compatible with the necessities
of the State. He must receive explicit and
scasonable notice of proceedings unreasonable
costs are restricted; sale is not absolute (or
perhaps only lease is given); a liberal time
for redemption is allowed and lastly the sale
discharges his Indebtedness for taxes. Pro-
visions Of such nature have been common in
American tax sale-laws.
Why are they not proper in Missouri An
act passed in 1877 for collection Of delinquent
taxes introduced a system exceptionally harsh.
Taxes were pronounced delinquent" in Il
single year. The collectors were commanded
in pcremptory language, TO proceed to collect
them out OF the taxpayers lands. by suit in the
County CouIt. and for this they were authorized
