Democratic Success.

That the Democratic party is the wide
awake, active, progressive party Of to-day
is plain, and there has been no proof of this
fact SO great as the election of Carlisle as
Speaker, an election which has been hailed
throughout the country as proper disre-
gard of section and as the popular recogni-
ton of a man who represents no State and
30 local issue, but great principles that must
triumph.
The New York Herald of yesterday says,
and we'll says: "Under the leadership OF
Carlisle, Morrison and Hewitt and those as
ISOLATED with them in policy, the Demo
cratic party has, for the first time in many
years, very strong chance of gaining pow
err In saying this the Herald speaks the
sentiments not only of a large part of the
people throughout the country but parti-
cularly of a majority of the people Of New
York, State which is SO large factor in
every presidential election. Reform carrie
New York for the Democracy in 1876, and
reform will carry New York for the De-
mocracy in 1884.
But aside from the question of a single
State, comes the question of many States,
North, West and South, and despite the
schemes of selfish monopolists and the
timid acquiescence in their schemes of ex-
pediency- men, there is such demand for
reform as cannot be met with deaf ear
Quibbling, hesitating. stammering, will car
~ no party to success. Reform, bold, hon
EST, manly reform, is what is asked by a
bold, honest, manly people.
The fear of treading on somebody toes
must be banished from the minds of those
who are about to enter upon determined
struggle for what is right. Never was a
war-cry whisper, and never did faith pre-
vail by fear.-Rich. State, Dec. 12th.

CHRISTMAS STOCKINGS.
By H. C. DODGE.


'The stockings were hung by the chimney
with care"
That's grandmamma's black one all wrinkled
and spare,
And Aunt Annals blue one, from Boston, as
lean
AS If 'twere pole for her favorite bean;
That long one of cotton SO white, is mammals !;
That short, clumsy. darned one, of course, is
papas;
That one all embroidered of silk is Miss Hates.
How graceful and fragile it looks by its mates;
Its foot is sotiny; Its ankle SO neat,
The print fits garter yet clings to it sweet;
The little red. plump one is Willie's, we know,
Because it has one little hole in its toe;
That wooden one, shapeless and big as bag.
Is Ellen's the cook; of its size she may brag;
And there are the baby's wee socks on chair
So ieecy and soft, Santa Claus may despair
To fill them with anything nearly SO sweet
As the dear little fellows own pink, dimpled
feet.
Oh! are not these stockings poem divine
In being, like poetry, 'feet" on a Elmer"

Against Overwhelming Odds.
The flag Of Texas is flying over Fort
Alamo, the property of which it forms
part, having been acquired by the state
of Texas. Alamo is known as the
Thermopyle of America, from the
heroic defense OF the fort made in 1886
by small body of Texans against
force Of Mexicans fully thirty times
their number. Fort Alamo was an OBJ
long structure of about an acre in ex-
tent, on the left bank OF the San
Antonio river, near the town of San
Antonio. The Notifications of San
Antonio had been recently dismantled
by Houston, when. February 23, 1886,
the Mexieans, under Santa Ana, be-
leagured the Alamo, into which Travis
withdrew with 40 Texans, while the
Mexicans, 1000 strong, occupied the
town aud bombarded the fortress from
batteries on both sides of the river. No
one man was hurt by the shelling, how
ever, and the garrison picked off the
Mexicans with their unerring rifles, or
when they ventured to charge the wall
repulsed them with disastrous loss.
Travis was re-enforced by thirtytwo
men, who forced their way through the
Mexican lines, but the garrison was too
feeble to take the initiative, and though
it never abated it's spirit, hard work
and ceaseless watching so told on its
feeble numbers that by the 9th the
Texan cause was desperate. Without
provisions and with but a scanty supply
of ammunition, the garrison yet made a
gallant stand against the overwhelming
force which assailed it at day-break
from every side. Twice repulsed with
great loss, the Mexicans at last made
good their attack, but it was only when
the defenders OF the Alamo numbered
six men and their nnloaded rifles were
shattered clubs in their hands.
These, including Crockett, surren-
dered to Castrillon, upon a promise OF
protection, but, being taken before
Santa Ana, they were ordered to be
hewn down. Crockett fell, mangled
with score of swords; the wounded ,
Bowie was dragged from his bed and
butchered, though not until he had
shot several OF his murdcrers; and
Evans was slain just as he attempted to
blow up the magazine. The bodies OF
the Texans, horribly mutilated, were
piled up in the center OF the fort and
burned, a negro, woman and child
alone being spared. On the 2lst OF
April, however, the dead of the Alamo
were bloodily avenged. 1t was ! o'clock
in the afternoon, and the Mexicans,
confident in their numbers, were enjoy
ing their siesta on the field OF San Ja-
cinto, when Houston, forming his little
force into line under cover of the forest,
advanced upon their works. At 200
yards the hastily mustered Mexicans
fred upon the approaching Texans, who
received the volley in grim silence;
then, with the shout. Remember the
Alamo 4" that burst upon them, an in
Simultaneous panic seized the Mexicans,
who fled. pursued by the relentless VIC
tors. Houston lost men killed and 25
wounded; the Mexicans $50 killed, POS
wounded, and 730 prisoners. In the
attack upon the Alamo they had
already lost 1000 men. It's defenders
had been avenged.
