Thoughts of the Best Thinkers on
 Political Equality.
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.

"Every man of the commonalty, except infants, insane persons, and criminals, is of common right and by the laws of God a freeman, and entitled to the free enjoy ment of liberty. They who have no Vosce nor cote in the electing of representatives do not enjoy liberty, but are absolutely enslaved to those who have votes, and to their representatives for to be enslaved is to have governors whom other men have set over us, and be subject to laws made by the representatives of others, without having had representatives of our own, to give consent on our behalf"
 ToTIs's RIGHTS OF THE COLONIES.
 "The very act of taxing exercised over those who are not represented appears to me to be depriving them of one of their most essential rights as freemen, and if continued seems to be, d'a effect, 0'a entire disfrGnch6senaeaat of eUery cdUil right. If 8 man is not his own assessor in person, or by deputy, his liberty is gone, or he is entirely at the mercy of others"

The Proud Peacock.
[Fs-ona Mrs. [. D. Bloke's Fables.1

From Mrs. [. D. Blokes Fables.1
 A Proud Peacock, who had 8 very hand some Wife, was asked one day if he did not think Females should have an equal Voice in Government with Males. But at this he screeched in great Disapprobation saying, "No; it would destroy the Deli cacy of the Lady Birds should such a thing be permitted Yet he never seemed to care that the brown Sparrows had to work very hard for their living, and he never cried out that their Delicacy would be destroyed when he saw the poor little Females going out into the Dusty Streets and scratching in all the Dirt to find enough to eat.
 Moral.-Consistency is a rare Virtue.

Ten Little Cigarettes,

Ten little cigarettes in 8 wrapper fine, The small boy samples them, and then there
 are nine,
 Nine little cigarettes quickly one by one, Get their work in on the youth, then there
 are none. Four bearded doctors sitting round the bed, Each with different shake to his learned head. Three big diseases waiting to destroy, All bearing Latin names as long as the boy. Two undertakers, gratitude in eye, Bow low to the doctors as they pass 'em by. One little funeral to the graveyard tore. One little smoker less-one angel more.

MERIDEN, Or, Dec. 1, 1881.


 PUBLISHER EXAMINER Accept thanks for the sample copy of the EXAMINER. You advocate two good causes-the "more equitable division of the profits of labor" and "suffrage without distinction of sex" Mrs. Rockers name is pledge that the woman's department will be properly cared for.
 Please give us all the facts you can which bear on the question of a more equitable distribution of the profits of labor. Such fact as that the New Haven Water Com pany purchased the papers in order to suppress all arguments that told against them or such facts as those given by Nasby on the condition of Ireland, are worth all the denunciations that ever were written.
 Most people want to 6lame somebody when things go wrong but because there is wrong that needs fighting, it by no means legitimately follows that somebody has committed willful sin. The bad con- ditions arising from false organization of society can be pointed out without necessarily involving moral censure of particular individuals.
 Let us have the facts about the monop- olies. Tell us what particular corpora tions in Hartford, or Meriden, or else where, are in receipt of dividends dispro- portionate to their outlay and risks. Show us wherein their treatment of those in their employ makes the position of the latter a virtual slavery. Give us names and figures
 If the railroads of this state have inf1u- enced legislation in their favor, let us know just what persons or other instru- pose, and what unjust laws have been enao ted through their improper interfe- renee.
 Let us get hold of actual facts. This is the first step. A remedy cannot be intel igently applied until we ascertain the nature and extent of the disease.
 agree with you in regard to the intel ligence of mechanics, and think they compare favorably with persons in other excellence is, however, hardly worth dis cussing, as we are all ignorant and need more light on all subjects. Whether we happen to know little more or little less than somebody else, is of little ac- count. One thing, however, IS trne, and it is an important truth, viz., that an intel ligent man or woman can put his or her force to better ascount than an ignorant one can command better wages can get more comfort out of life and best of all, can do more for others, other co,adi- t6oms being the same. Therefore, if we would be wise, we must follow the advice of Solomon, and, with all our gettings, E'get understanding"

New York society Notes.

The weddings during the coming
week will be that OF Miss Morgan and
Mr.. Belmont on Tuesday, and of Miss
Caroline May and Mr.. w. M. Wright on
Wednesday. The latter will be a very
quiet and private affair.
In December there will be quite
rush of gayety, beginning with the La
dies ball. on the Sth, the Hunt ball, the
Patrlarchs, the F. q. ID. g., and the
marriages Of Miss Candy to Mr.. Per-
kDs, Miss Lanier to Mr.. Lawrence, and
Of Miss Leila Vanderbilt to Dr. Seward
Webb. The last will take place On
Tuesday, the 10th, and not on tine 14th,
as has been incorrectly reported. The
ceremony will be at u O'Clock, in st.
Bartholomew's Church, and will be fol-
lowed by a small reception at Mr.. Van
derblts house, in the Fifth avenue.
The bridesmaids will be the Misses
Bessie and Ellen Webb, Miss Case, Miss
May Carnochan, Miss Curtin, and Miss
Macomb of Philadelphia. On the re.
turn OF the young couple from their
bridal trip, it Is the intention of Mrs
Vanderbilt to give three receptions in
her new mansion, on the corner of
Fifty-second street and Fifth avenue,
which will be ready for occupation at
the beginning of the New Year. One
of these receptions will be very gay
with music aud dancing. The dresses
of the bridesmaids, it is whispered, will
be of white watered Gilk, with trim
miDgs of lace and flowers. .a.-
Dinner parties are multiplying as the
weeks run on, and promise to be as nu-
merous and popular as they were at
Newport during the summer. Mr.. Her.

dinner to Miss Whiting not long since.

Lord Beaumont has been Hospitality

dinners for him are Mr.. Belmont, Mr..

The English language has gens
orally been considered by those
who are best acquainted with 1t to
be one of the best mediums for the
expression Of refined thought and
graceful ideas. To the mind OF the
Rev. DIR. Blyden, who is President
of Liberia College, this estimate of
it seems incorrect. Although the
Doctor has considerable reputation
as man of learning, from when
better things might be expected, he
has given orders that the principal
OF the preparatory department shall
no longer teach English to any but
the younger pupils. His reason for
this strange course is that he thinks
the use of the English tongue
degrades the negro, as it is full of
ideas and expressions which are not
consistent with proper degree OF
self.respect. The learned President
has probably been listening to some
of the untutored ex-slaves of the
South, who used their own peculiar
slang or blasphemed IN English.
No announcement is as yet made
as to what language the colored
brethren are to be taught instead OF
English. French, German, Italian
and Russian all haye. their merits
and yet they all contain bad words.
The Chinese language is suggested
as one SO diaicult that the Liberians
might not be able to learn it at all
and would thus escape the de-
moralization which would resultfrom
a too intimate acquaintance with
bad words and slang phrases.
