A Nihilist is one who believes in
Nihilism, which, according to Web
stcr, holds the doctrine that nothing
can he known, that it is skepticism
carried to the denial of all knowledge
and all reality. 1t is probaly applied
TO the Russian Communistic agitators
because they advocate the principle OF
doing away with all Government, and
the Inference is that, if this were carried
out, Russia us Il nation would cease to
exist.

Yankee Doodle.

The tune of yankee Doodle was
known as long ago as the reign of
Charles !, and was sung to a nursery
rhyme-"Lucv Lockct lost her pocket."
In the time of Cromwell it was sung
10 the following rhyme, in which the
words. by which it is now known,
first appear:
Yankee Doodle came TO town,
Upon Kcntish Pony;
lie stuck feather in his hat,
And called it macaroni.
It is supposed to have been written
10 satirize Cromwell. In colonial
times it was played by British bands
in this country. and, by means OF
doggcral verses, was turned into a
medium of ridiculc of the Ameri,

THE DEMOCRAT.
WEDNESDAY, MAY IL, 1880.
We MOderne Gyrle.

She wears a little turban cap,
Amt bothered now with trails,
She packs great big hustle, too,
And coat with long slim tails.
She bends her elbows and her spine
Looks warped up, if she's tall,
And hops just like kangaroo
Meath her China parasol.
Too thin for health, too weak to cook
No energy, no life.
She moves and struts little while
And then she dies-no wife.
