which is the most important one rem

constitutionality of the Civil Rights
Bill, which has caused so much troub-

The Muhlenburg Echo has de-
clared for the "Old Ticket" for the
Presidency, upon the ground that a
great wrong would be righted by its
election. Mr.. Tilden is now in his
list year and is almost superannuat-
ed and Mr.. Hendricks is unpopular,
not only in his own state but all over
the country, because he refused to ac-
cept the second place in 1880 and
thereby kept the wrong from being
righted. Besides the head of the
ticket must come from the west. Re-
consider the matter, Thomas, and
hoist the names of Mcdonald 4 Cox,
or Thurman & Cleveland.

The Mystery of Music.
TFrom the Laramie Boomerang.

What Is there in brass band or the
sound of any of its instruments that
should stir the blood of every man, wO-
man and child who is not mummy
Perhaps, indeed, the mummies start too,
who knows? The music may be afro
cious, the like of which ground from
hand-organ would drive to madness.
But with the first roll of the drum or
sound Of the bugle every window within
earshot is raised and heads thrust in
quiringly and expectantly forth. A band
may come and play beneath our window
the tunes which, above all others, we
detest, but being by the band we listen
complacently through the last note.
Men who followed drum into battle and
rallied to its beat IN old days may ex-
plain their fOndn9ss for the electric
sound now; but other men, who saved
their country at long range by means of
substitutes, are equally moved. It is
easy to understand why the giddy girl
smiles when the country band perpetu-
ates waltz, but why should her Quaker
grandmother Waken from her nap and
beat time with her rheumatic feet. Men
join secret societies and pay out much
of their substance in dues for no nUr-
pose that the uninitiated can see than to
have brass bands at their funerals. The
fascination cannot be explained by q
general love for music. There is not al
ways music in the air "when the band
begins to play" and the man with no
music in his soul listens intently to its
strains. The same man despises piano,
is unmoved by the violin, and avoids the
opera as a pestilence. It is all an unex-
planned mystery. Surely Gabriel is wise
indeed to arm himself with trump. A
gong, Or even church bell, would never
awake the half of US.
