THE Republicans keep right ON pro-
tecting the capitalists and the great
monopO'is's, and the capitalists con-
tinue to import cheap labOrers from
Asia and Europe to compete with the
laborers who are driven out of employ
ment because they cannot obtain
enough of the plumber wrung from the
pockets of the people by oppressive
tariff taxes to render them and their
families comfortable, and then the
Republican leaders with braZen ef-
f'ontery set up the claim that they are
real friends of the workingmen. 1t is
passing strange that the toiling, pro-
ducing people of America should be
beguiled into voting to retain the Re-
publican party in power by such shsl-
low nonsense and hypocritical pre-
tense,

THERE seems to be an irrepressible
conflict between the highcockalO-'
runs of the Radical household over
the matter of ievying assessments upon
public servants fOreampsign purposes.
George w. Curtiss, of New York,
President of the Civil Service Reform
Association, charges that the payment
of such an assessment is IN violation
Of the United States statute, and rem
ders the person paying it liable To a
penalty. Jay A. Hubbell, Chairman
and Treasurer of the Republican Con-
gressional Committee, writes to the
Civil Service Reformer that "If the
law be that the person paying becomes
thereby liable to penalty, 1 being q
member Of Congress and treasurer re-
ceiving the payment, ann also liable"
Quite likely. 1t seems to be difficult
mater for these fellows to make even
show of civil service reform and at
the same time raise sufficient fund
to secure "a free vote and fair count"

AYERS CArHARTIc Pills are the best
Of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product OF long. laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized ma
tions. proves them the best and most
efiectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated, they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them; and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain i'm healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual. they are especially adapted
TO the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tons, where a mild but efectua
cathartic is required.

The subject Of entertaining and wholesome
reading for the family circle is ooe Of prae-
tical interest in every household. 1t cannot
be denied that the tendency Of the American
press lie In too large degree toward sensa-
tionalism, and in some instances even the
sentiments Of purity and sscredpess prove
m insufficient barrier against the all-per-
vadipg desire Of being novel and startling in
the presentation Of news. The exceptions to
this common rule among the metropolitan
journals of The day are 30 few as to be wor-
thy Of notice when encountered. The Chi
csgo Weekly News is one Of the few papers
of which il may be strictly said that nothing
Objectionable to pure thought and morality
ever appears in its columns. 1t is an enter
pri-ing paper-none in the West more So
but more than that, it is clean paper, one
which it is safe to take into the family cir.

which are feature Of Yezo, and one which
the colonists would willingly dispense with
There are millions of them, and in manv
places they break the silence of the silent
land vito Babel of noisy dscords. They
are everywhere and have attained degree OF
most objectionable impertinence mingled
with a cunning and sagacity which almost put
them on level with man in some circum-
stances. Five of them were so imrudent as
to alight on two of my horses. and 90 be ferri.
| ed across the furapugswa. In the inn gar
den at Mori | saw a dog eating a piece of
carrion in the presence of several Of these
covetous birds. They evidently said n good
deal TO each other ON the subject, aud now
and then one or two of them tried to pull the
meat away from him, which he resented. AT
last big strong crow succeeded in tearing
off piece, with which he returned to the
pine where the others were cougregated, aud
after much earnest speech they all surrounded
the dog, and the leading bird dcxterously
dropped the small piece of meat within reach
of his mouth, when he immediately snapped
at it, letting go the big piece unwisely for a
second. on which two of the crows hew away
with il TO the pine, and with much tiuttering
and hilariiy they all ate. or rather gorged il,
the deceived dog looking vacant and bew ilder-
ed for a moment, after which he sat under the
tree and barked at them namely.
A gentleman told me that he saw dog
holding piece Of meat In like manner IN the
presence of three crows which also vainly
tried TO tear it from him, and after q con-
sultation they separated, two going "a near
as they dared to the meat, while the third
gave the tail bite sharp enough to make the
dog turn round with a squeal. on which the
other villains seized the meat, and the three fed
triumphantly upon it on the top of wall. In
many places they are so aggressive as to
destroy crops. unless they are protected by
netting. They assemble on the sore backs Of
horses and pick them into holes, and are
mischievous in many ways. They are very
late in going to roost, and are early astir in
the morning. and are so bold that they often
came with many stately firt and huttcr"
into the verandah where l was sitting.
never watched an assemblage of them for any
length Of time without being convinced that
there was Nestor among them to lead their
movements. Along the sea-shore they are
very amusing for they ''take the AR" in the
evening, seated on sandbanks facing the wind
with their mouths open. They are threaten
ing to devour the settlers, and a crusade Is
just now being waged against them but their
name is Legion.-Miss Birds "Unbsafen
