LEARN TO LABOR.

The Emperor of Germany sets an ex-
coflent example in the education of his
own household. Every Prince of the
royal family Of Prussia, when in youth,
is taught some useful trade. Such ex-
porienca &c is supposedto sober the mind
and bring it face to face with the mate
rial world" says correct writer. It
docs far more than this. It keeps the
royal youth from gadding about, and
learning, as other less-fayored flesh and
blood does, the lessons of the club, the
green-room, or the corner grocery. Face
to face with the worlds material, with u
plane or q handsaw in hand, man is
made better, and, if he is honest, work
is improved and its results made cheap
er. Men or women without trades or an
occupation are as weak in this world
where humanity not only makes mortals
mourn but compels them to work for a
hving-as the infant in swaddling
clothes, and have not half their claim to
protection and care. A healthy man
should work or starve. Rich and poor
should perform some manual labor every
day. Wealth ana wisdom are of no eff
foct II not properly worked. The EN-
peror Of Germany shows exceeding elev-
ulness in compelling his household to
lean trades.-Neeo York Commercial.

The Boilers, in their anxious zeal to
rope in temperance people, have done
that holy cause an irrsparable injury.
They drag into this hurdy- gurdy, ran
tankerOus canvass this question that
has stood upon the statute books five
years and has done a world of good,
and was still doing good and no one
was threatening it, and make it party
question, hoping to awaken antagonism
to it that they might reap a benefit,
reckless of the damage they did to the
righteous effects of the law so they
might profit thereby, imperilingit by
trying to stir up opposition to it. The
temperance people are justly incensed
that the Boilers should use this holy
thing for bait to catch them and they
are rising to repudiate the alliance into
which they are sought to be drawn.
The democratic party made this four
mile law and now the Boilers dig it up
to use it in the dirty work OF defeating
democracy and electing republicans.
1t has prscipitated split in the temper
ance party itself and instead of reaping
benefit the Boilers should be held
severely responsible for dragging out
this question to be bedraggled in the
dirtiness and bruised in the wrangles of
political canvass. Temperance peo-
pie cannot afford to help the Boilers
smite them and ruin their cause, while
they are running democracy.

| Col. AS. Colyar has sold his stock in
the American and retires. He gives a
long and able resume of his steward
ship, which constitutes a very impor-
tant feature in current politics. He
shows that the COG settlement $50
called) was but proposition and that
the bondholders distinctly said so and
invited proposition from the state. 1t
has been made at SOB. 1t is therefore
a response to their invitation, in no way
binding upon them, but simply an Of
fer which they are at liberty to accept
or decline. Under these facts, clearly
established, the strong objections urged
to the democratic platform fall to the
ground. The COG is as much mRnda-
tory as the 50-3 and was not proposed
as an ultimatum-indeed,i it was not
proposed at all by majority. There
is absolutely no ground left for the
trumped-up bolt to stand upon. The
majority of the democratic party will
never consent to COG. This would not
be so important if it were not true that
that party is dominant and by reason of
its strength will have the adjudication
of this question. The SOB being only
an offer, invited by the bondholders,
made at their special request, in no way
binding, there can be no objection to al
lowing them to consider it, and when
they decline it, then will be the time to
get at something else. The COG is in
no better condition and stands upon no
higher ground.

The first great requisite of a good
congressman is his ability to gouge
money out of the national treasury for
his constituents and his district. In
the short biographies published in the
Washington papers of congressman
they wind up with a summary of how
many men he has got into fat places,
how many claims he has gotten
through, how many post routes expedi-
ted, how many appropriations to clean
out his rivers, etc. 1t doesn't seem to
occur to them that they are. sent there
to guard rather than gouge the treasury.

While they were raising such eulla-
belloo over whether the bondholders
agreed to take 50-4, why didn't they
also inquire whether they agreed to
take 60-6? Suppose few spectators
representing only about five millions
(on paper) consent to take COG, and a
legislature agrees to It directly in the
face of the Instructions OF constituents,
wouldn't that be a beautiful contract
A few men representing nothing make
a contract with set OF men without
authority to act, and then because for
sooth the real parties in interest object
they are dishonorsble readlusters.

The Temperance Movement.

In2 rem peranco M OycmcnC.
We have longed to see the time when
the manufacture and sale of whisky
would be prohibited in Tennessee. The
movement has never gained much
actual strength except in the earnest
desire of manymen to see it accom-
plished. Lately, in other states, pro-
hibition has been accomplished and
there seemed to be tide setting in in
Tennessee that promised mere than
ever before. The temperance party
was about to effect an organization and
thousands of men stood ready to join
la with it and make prohibition an ae-
complished fact. The temperance party
in Tennessee now hangs suspended as
the tail of a boilers kite and arrays
itself against the dominant party. 1t
was very unwise in them to seek thus
the active opposition of thousands of
it's friends. We deplore its action, for
the result will inevitably be to defer for
an indefinite time any tangible results.
1t ought to have maintained itself upon
its own principles, high above: politics
and parties, and in the end it would
have triumphed. 1t did itself no good
in espousing a faction. Every one
knows that the four mile plank in tke
Boilers platform was inserted to catch
votes. The democratic party is on
record in favor of the four mile law and
its record is on the statute book in the
very language OF the law itself. To
the democratic party belongs the honor
and credit of this act, and after it is
passed and is law, firmly fixed and in
force, 4 little faction OF boilers come
along and declare that they oppose its
repeal, when no one wants to repeal it.
Why not say also they oppose the repeal
of the law against stealing? And now
comes the temperance folk-honest,
God-fearing, humanitarians,-and pro-
pose to vote for a bolter from the very
democratic party that passed this law,
simply because he said he was opposed
to repeating it,-saying it, as all men
know, only and solely to catch votes
and when there was no necessity for
saying it, because the Law was not
menaced and is in no danger of being
repealed. These men thought they
were doing for the best, and we sincere
ly hope that the result of their unwise
action may not be as disastrous as they
have made it possible to be. Prohibi-
ton ought to prevail in Tennessee; and
so ought democracy, and they ought
not to antagonize each other.
