The Economy of Exponent.

Among the score of more or less sensa-
tiOnal Opponents that have taken place
in the United States within the past week
or two are two or three that were not due
so much to the sold, old story" of parental
opposition, or to pure love of romance, as
to motives of practical economy. The
fact is cases are by no means rare where
girls are so cOnsiderate of their parents
circumstances that in order to save ex-
penses they manage to induce their lovers
to propose a kind of wedding where there
are no cards, no cake, and not much no.
tice.
That great tyrant, society, does not
look with favor on any irregularity what
ever in the manner, time or place of sol
emnizing the marriage contract. 1t re-
quires its subjects to follow fixed rules,
and every step taken by its faithful vOta-
ries is laid down in its unwritten, but no
less obligatory, law. The least violation
OF its prescribed forms is punished mex
Orably, and the shrug of the shoulder, the
footing of the lips, or the exclamation of
depreciation off myriads of eXecutioners
are scarcely less potent than the moose of
the public officer.
1t seems to be about time that poor but
proud members of society should unani-
mOusly but informally unite in favor of
the notification of that of lec non Scrlptd
which requires a "grand blow out'' at
every wedding, with the accompaniment
of elaborate trOusseaus and expensive
presents. Instances are by no means rare
in which parents have been brought to
absolute pecuniary distress by their eff
forts to start loved daughter on the mat
rimonial voyage according to the most
approved style. There are thousands of
refined and most worthy members of So
ciety to whom the expenditure Of $500 or
81, 600 or $1,000 outside of the ordinary de-
mands of daily life is a serious thing, and
vet the number of those who have the
courage to conform to their circumstances
by having a quiet and inexpensive we'd
ding is limited.
Those girls who elOpe from motives of
economy alone deserve more lenient treat
ment at the hands of society than those
who do so from less worthy motives. Yet
this attempt to evade the dictates of society
is worse than if these dictates were openly
disregarded. A quiet performance of
marriage ceremony in the presence Of a
few personal friends, where display is not
desirable or within the means of the par
ties. appeals to the common sense Of every
one who is endowed with anything of the
kind. An elopement always creates an
sensation, and while it may
save the expense Of a big wedding, it is
not as creditable to any Of the parties IN
volved as is courageous determination
to adopt plan which is not only highly
honorable, but which should be COM
mended and encouraged by every right
thinking person.

Beecher and His Church.

Mr.. Beecher does not intend to allow the
Republican members of Plymouth Church
to control him in politics. The Brooklyn
Times reports that quite a number of
these Republicans held meeting and in
duced the assistant pastor, Mr.. Halliday,
to write Mr.. Beecher a letter, telling him
that in the opinion of majority of his
congregation he was injuring himself and
his church by supporting Cleveland.
OF course Mr.. Beecher's reply was
characteristic Of the man. 1t was prompt
and very vigorous. Mr.. Beecher said, in
substance, that he had arrived at years
of discretion, and that he was fully capa-
bic of judging for himself in political mat
tiers. He said emphatically that he
would not be dictated to in the matter Of
his political preferences, and that if Ply
mouth Church didn't like his course in
supporting Cleveland it could have his
resignation at any time.
The resignation will not be called for
and Mr.. Beecher will not again be troubled
about his support of Cleveland. Plymouth
Church would amount to nothing without
Beecher.
1t is rather remarkable that men pro-
Tossing to be Christians and holding lead
ing positions in prominent churches, OBJ
ject to Cleveland on moral grounds while
they accept Blaine. Cleveland is
clean man morally in comparison with
Blaine. The Mulligan letters show that
Blame is not only corrupt man but an
untruthful one. The reading of the let
tiers is sufficient to convince any one that
Blaine sold his influence as Speaker for
gain, and that he attempted TO deceive the
country respecting the character of his
political jObbing transactions.
If the letters were not eliminating and
calculated to damage him, why did
he, on his knees, beg the let
tiers of Mulligan? Why did he
say to Mulligan, as Mulligan swears that
he did, that the letters would ruin him
politically? Those members of Plymouth
Church must be endowed with a curious
sort of moral sense who reject Grover
Cleveland and accept James G. Blaine on
moral grounds

The Preservation of the Forests


There is a growing interest througho.t
the country in the question of the preser-
walton of the forests. The attendance at
the Forestry Congress, which met at
Saratoga last week, was quite large, and
included representatives from every sec
tiOn Of the country.
The necessity Of preserving the forests
and of planting trees in prairie countries
is becoming more generally recognized
every year. The discussions in the news
papers are calling attention to it, and
men of leisure and means are deyOt-
ing a good deal of time to dis
seminating knowledge with regard to
it. The great floods and the
drOughts which visit some portions of the
country almost every year are largely
attributable to the destruc ton of the
forests. The great flood in the valley Of
the Ohio river last year gave an impetus
to tree planting in that State that bids
/ fair TO provide, in a few years, a very
reasonable amount of shade.
The forests do not, of course, provide
/ the rain, but they hold it. They act as
/ sponges, and restrain the water from
rushing too rapidly to the water courses.
They retain the moisture in the earth,
/ where it is needed.
All the pine forests Of Maine are gone;
only spruce and hemlock are left in that
State. The great pineries of the North
west will not last much more than a score
OF years longer. In the South the ak has
begun the work Of destruction. 1t is a
work Of destruction in the fullest sense OF
the word, because there is no effort what
ever at preservation. The forests are i'm
mense, but it will not take the lumber
men, the naval stores farmers and the de-

BOOK NOTICES.

THoRHs IN THE FLESH. By Capt; A; J. Floyd;
Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
It is a well written, thrilling historical
novel, dealing with the late war, its causes
and effects, from the Southern stand
point. 1t aims to dispute some of the out
rageOus Authorizations and false i'm
pressions with which such works as
t'Uncle Toms Cabin, )" " A FOOLS Errand -
etc., have filled Northern minds. The hero
of the story is a noble son of Virginia, who
settled in Alabama. Northern Alabama
is the central scene of the story,
though it sweeps through the entire
Southern domain. 1t delineates both high
life and low life in the plantation regions
of the cotton States. Carpet-baggers and
mercenary Puritans are mercilesslv eX-
posed. ku-kluX outrages are stripped of
their DISCUSSES and stand uncovered as
defensive acts, or necessary indications
OF inalienable rights. The plot is laid in
the perIlous times of the great civil war.
1t portrays the gathering and the break
ing of that fearful storm, shows its despe-
rate fury as it swept and surged over the
fair Southern land, and exhibits the utter
desolatIOn left in its track. The struggles
following the war as INSCRIPTIONS and
incompetent men scrambled for the sDoils.
with glimpses of the suffering incident
thereto on the part of well-meaning but
helpless population are strikingly set
forth, and none who reads can fail to see
the facts.

McDonald,s Defense of Blaine.

Ex-senator Mcdonald, an Arkansas
carpet-bagger, makes the defense for
Blaine to the charges that Blaine acted
cOrruptly in connection with the Fort
Smith and Little Rock Railroad matter.
The defense is weak and aims to excite
sympathy rather than convince the under
standing. Indeed, it's difficult to see how a
defense could be made that would be con-
vincing in face of the overwhelming and
damning evidence contained in the Multi
gan letters.
Perhaps there will be general desire
to know whether ex-senator Mcdonald
enjoys such an excellent reputation for
integrity that his word, unsupported by
evidence of any kind, is sufficient to show
Blaine to be an innocent but badly SLAM
dered man. Is not this Mcdonald the
same one whose name has been mentioned
in a very unsavory way in connection
with the Texas Pacific Railway charter?
He was in the Senate about the time that
Tom Scott was trying to get charter for
that road, and it has been alleged that the
charter cost Scott a very pretty penny.
But whether or not this Mcdonald has
a good or bad record he certainly makes
a very poor defense for Blaine. For in
stance, he says that Blaine had nothing
to do with getting the land grant of the
Fort Smith and Little Rock Railroad, and
that he could not have prevented the re-
vival of the grant If he had wanted to-.
That may be true, but what has that
to do with the charge that Blaine sought
an interest in the enterprise on the ground
that he had done its promoters a great
service by making favorable ruling on
their bill.
Blaine even went further than that, and
said that he saw many channels in which
he could make himself useful if the promo
tiers Of the railroad scheme would rake
him partner.
They did make him a partner and he
made himself useful. One Of the ways in
which he made himself useful was that
he loaded up good many of his innocent
and cOnfding constituents with the bonds
Of the road at price far beyond their real
value. The bonds were not worth a great
deal, because the road was bonded for
ever so much more than it was worth.
Mcdonald says that Blaine is entitled
to sympathy rather than blame for taking
part in that railroad business because he
was out of pocket in the long run about
$4,000. If Fishers letters are reliable
Blaine, instead of losing money, made a
large sum, and Fisher is clearly better
witness than McDO maid. 1t is true that
when the interest on the bonds was not
paid by the company Blaine paid it to
those to whom he had sold bonds because
he had personally guaranteed it, but he
did this not because ne was so anxious to
make his guarantee good, but because he
was afraid that his duped constituents
would find out that they had been de-
ceiyed.
McDonald's defense of Blaine isn't
quite so good as no defense at all. be-
cause it makes it evident how impossible
it is to defend him. In the beginning the
Blaine managers gave out that they in
tended to make an aggressive campaign.
They have given up that idea evidently.
They have been on the defensive for some
time, and the indications are that they
will have to continue in that position.
