HENRY WARD BERcHER.
Tho Plymouth Orater's Lecture at the
Congregational Church.

| Quite unlike the pale-faced young man
with long. flowing hair that came out from the
West some thirty odd years ago to thrill the world
with his eloquence and make name for himself
was the short, rotund figure that stood upon the
platform in the Congregational Church last even
| ing. The years have not spared Henry Ward
Beecher. He is now an old man. The long hair
which formerly fell in graceful clusters upon his
| shoulders is now conbed stif1y down and plas-
tered close to his head. 1t is very gray His face
has lost the clean-cut outline, and is heavy with
the full red complexion of good liver. His
SHORT, STURDY FIGURE
has become rotund and full, and his movements
show the advance of years. The desk had been
removed, and he stood upon the platform with his
left hand behind his back and began to talk in an
easy, conversational Tone which he maintained
during the greater part of his hour and half lee
ture. At times he became earnest and rapid in his
delivery, but the old-time fire and fervor was
lacking. The theme was The Reign of the Com
mon People" and the ideas advanced,
while not particularly new or striking, were
made attractive by the manner and method OF
their presentation. He began by saying that De
Tocquerillis work on democracy in America gave
the best insight into the character of our institu
lions of any book ever published. The prophecy
of fifty years ago that kings would have to adapt
themselves to the people is history to-day. He
tien went on 10 define the true democracy rs the
ascendancy of the brain, and traced the gradual
development of the human race from the earliest
ages, showing how popular education has always
been the exponent of the civilization Of the period.
This country especially favored from the ma
ture of the climate and the form of society to de-
velop the brain. This country is democraticized
because the people are cerebrated. He then spoke
of the
GLOOMY VIEWS
held by some people of the future of this Govern
ment. There were numerous faults about this sys-
tenn of government and he did not wonder that
the foreign nose was turned up at such Il specimen
of selfgovernment. Yet with all its faults, it is
the best ever instituted under the sun; and
the proof lies in the fact that nowhere is
there somuch intelligence, liberty, and happiness
rs is enjoyed here. He spoke of the
danger to the Government from the centralizing
tendencies that were abroad, and described it as
the European idea of government. The American
idea is that the people should take care of the
Government, and not the reverse. In conclusion,
he referred to the changes in society and the
church consequent upon the increase of popular
education and expressed the belief that there was
an everything God that neither slumbered nor

was resumed on the Washington monument, eight
feet have been added to the height of the monu-
ment There are one hundred men employed in
preparing the stones and twelve in setting them.
The progress made in the work is about two and
half courses of stone per week. Each course of
stone is two feet in height As the monument as
cends there is agradual diminution in the cubic
contents which amounts to about fifteen feet per
course. There will be three more courses of stone
laid, and then derrick top will be raised and
the machinery shifted. Then twenty feet more will
be added to the height and the hotsting machinery
again shifted. This requires about week. during
