Political economy is flexible science. 1t
is moral and not mathematical. Its learned

in books. Patriotism is part and member of
true philanthropy, which bleeds and suffers
by amputation of the love of country. The
land, like the house in St. Paurs doctrine
(Which provideth not for its OWL inmates

Americas first duty is to take care

and Russia, except by international equity

and it is not mindng our own, but meddling
with others business. besides being false
calculation, to seek to put our labor and
laborers into an equation with those of any
other region, Great Britain, China or Japan
Neither brains, nor hands, nor wants, nor
ways, modes of living, nor any habits of body
or mind are the same among men all over the
world. As employers or employees, Yankees
cannot live on rice, maccaroni, fig, date,

lions here but because such is our custom and
law? But it was foolish and futile attempt
to equalize the recompense, beyond our pur-
view and responsibility, in all the quarters of
this terraqueous globe, Love your neighbor
as yourself" But love and respect as the
Master bids, the sacred trust in your breast
of the self which is your neighbor's, too, as
it is also Gods, there being many selves but
only one self. What is a nation but a vast
self, ours 6e,0o0,00o strong, bound to keep
its footing. to develop its resources. to nurse
its energies, to grow into its full proportions
to snatch itself from the jaws of secession
and be plucked as brand from the burning
out of the flames of civil war; and to score
such self representation as selfshness in
human and coarse is hypocritical assumption
of an empty, impossible virtue, and an idiotc
abuse of terms.

HOEING HIS SOW.

Hoeing his row, the farmer boy
Whistles and sings in careless Joy,
Nature smiling on every side
Quickly the hours and moments glide:
Little of sorrow his spirits know
As gaily he lsbors and hoes his roe.
Hoeing his row, in later years,
buoyant hope his spirit cheers;
While blade and stalk grow green and strong,
He sings full many lovers song;
And future pleasures brighter grow
As hoping he 1abors and hoes his row
Hoeing his row in middle life
Away from the cares and angry strife
A loving wife and children fair
His many joys and pleasures share;
Crops Of plenty their wealth bestow,
As happy he labors and hoes his row
Hoeing his row-the setting sun
Tells us his work will soon Be done
Peace and comfort crown his DAYS,
And all who know him speak his praise:
Who would not change the worlds vain show
For his simple joys. as be hoes his row.
Hoeing his row. His life Is past,
His sweetest moments were his last:
He never sought for praise or fame,
But children's children bless his name:
Over his grave sweet breezes blow,
The faithful farmer has hoed his row.

Considerable interest will be felt in the
trial of DR. Geo. F. Weed of Newport, who
is imprisoned at the Bangor Jail on charge
of completely in the Peter Bennett robbery.
The doctor is very confident that he will
prove his innocence. DIR. Weed had always
borne a good reputation in his own COM
munity prior to the Bennett robbery, and
still has large number of friends who do
not hesitate to express the opinion that he
has been made the victim of nefarious plot
His trial will occur in August, and the public
will have an opportunity then to judge from
the evidence as to his innocence or guilt.

The Boston correspondent of the New
York Evening Post, Mugwump, has to
admit the likelihood that Republicans will
be the gamers in Massachusetts in conse-
quence Of the tariff agitation. He says
ALREADY there are evidences that in the
mill towns inroads will be made by the Re-
publicans into this class of Democrats, and
the latter will be fortunate if some of the
Democratic mill owners do not vote with their
employees who are influenced by the labor
arguments Of the protectionists. AS to the
farming population, canvass was recently
made by the New England Homestead of its
constituency in all New England, and over
30 per cent. of the replies from the farmers
were opposed to the Mills bill"
The Post will learn of many more facts
of this kind in this part of the country be-
tween this and November. The Demo-
cratic ranks are thinning out as in the
times of the rebellion.
