church members Washington and Garfield.
Adams married a minister's daughter, and was in
clined to Unitarianism. Jefferson was not be-

church. John Quincy Adams was like his father.
Jackson was Methodist, and died in the COM
munion of that church. Van Buren was brought
up in the Reformed Dutch Church, but afterward
inclined to the Episcopal Church. Harrison leaned
toward the Methodist Church, and Tyler was an
Episcopalian. Polk was baptized by a Methodist
preacher after his term of Office expired Taylor
was inclined to the Episcopal communion. Fill
more attended the Unitarian Church. and Frank
lin Pierce member but not communicate
of Congregationalist Church at Concord
Buchanan was a Presbyterian. General Grant at
tends the Methodist Church, and President Gar
field is a member of the Church of the Disciples.

edition of THE REPUBLICAN, which was
extraordinarily large, was so great that
we were compelled yesterday to strike off
a second edition. Copies can be had at
the business office. In this connection
We deem it but just to our advertising
patrons and the public to state that the
subscription-list of THE REPUBLICAN
is steadily increasing, and is now
second to but one paper published in the
National Capital; and with a continua-
ton at the present rate Of new
subscriptions, we shall, in a short time,
we confidently believe, be able to
announce that THE REPUBLICANS circula-
ton is the largest of any paper in the
District. THE REPUBLICAN is read by all
the live, active, progressive people of this
community, and is prominently devoted
to the advancement of the substantial in
terests of the District of Columbia.

John Browns Widow.

The fund for the relief of the widow OF
John Brown already foots up s62375 and promises
to reach $1,000, or even more, in day or two.
There has never been heartier response to a call
of this kind in California. The contributions come
from all sources. The list this morning shows the
name of an ex-confederate colonel, and not far
from it are the names of two Union soldiers. A
day or two ago the legless cOlored man frequently
seen on our streets handed in his mite and his
name was entered close to that of the warm

AN experiment has been successfully
tried in Canada of combining the kinder
garten system with the regular course of
teaching in the case of young children.
Instead of compelling the little ones to
remain at their studies during the entire
school hours, one-half the time is devoted
to play under the direction of a teacher,
who guides the children in their amuse-
ments, and imparts incidentally instruc-
ton as well as paying attention to physi-
cal exercise. This matter seems to be
worthy the attention of our school trus-
tees, and it is to be hoped that a trial
may be given this method here.

THE late exploits in the mud-throwing
line remind one of the mighty upheaval
in 1928, when, On motion OF Mr. Blaine,
the Credit Moblier investigation was set

aspirants. One of the abused individuals
reached the White House in advance of

length he sinks out of sight and mind
by seeking some other home, or, as some
times occurs, by dropping down, down,
until he reaches the very bottom-the
grave-a victim ofthe marooners ," arts.
Another system of Narrowing" is
known under the name of ostracism,"
which is now more frequently the term
used to designate " the letting alone" of
a person for political reasons. This
species of marooning" is almost, if not
altogether, confined to the Southern
States lately in rebellion, and is one of
the potent weapons used by the Bourbons
to assert and maintain their political SUI
premacy.
1t shuts the door of society against
those of an opposite political faith-of
those who cannot accept the Bourbon
doctrine (whatever that may be-; it
drives from the merchant his customers,
from the mechanic his employers, from
the planter or man of business his help.
1t destroys churches, breaks up schools,
ruins households, saps the foundations of
social intercourse, and, if permitted to
have full power, would overthrow the State
itself. 1t is the very worst kind of a
trades union" in politics, in which the
Bourbons are banded together to lay
down laws for observance, and to enforce
them, when necessary, by brute power.
1t is the old, devilish, buccaneering
spirit of marooning" resurrected under
new name-that is ALL
And, like the sailor set ashore to satisfy
the malicious and brutal instinct of the
enemy, the person who is sent to cov-
entry" in polite society, or ostracised in
politics, has no recourse against the power
that persecutes and Furnishes for the pre-
tended wrong.
There is no law against "lettiag per-
son alone" Public opinion presents the
only remedy, and public opinion is often
slow to move. But there are evidences
springing up on every hand in this
year of grace to prove that the people
are awakening to the gravity of the
otfenses committed by these social and
political pirates Already a disposition
has been shown, especially in politics, to
cut loose from the marooners," and it
is to be hoped that before many years
have elapsed the "marooners may all
be laid away alongside of their Spanish
prototypes, to vex society and persecute
the innocent no more forever.

EX-SENATOR GORDON remarked a few days ago
that he congratulated himself every day upon the
fact that he was moi in the Senate. Il can be in
dependent and think for myself now not
think at all.' This seems to imply that somebody
else did his thinking for him when he was in the
Senate, and the question at once arises: Who is
doing the thinking for the present Georgia Sena-
tors Hill and Brown? 1t is an awful response
bility to put upon anybody.-NetU York Tribune.
1t is quite evident that since the dead
lock commenced they have been going it
on their own hook, and have made such
mess of it that General Gordon was
moved to make the above remark. Prob
