InSnIting the PeOple.

About the most disgusting piece of
hypocrisy that has appeared lately is
that portion of the Now York DEM
Ocratic platform which refers in laud-
atory terms to CleYeland's reform"
policy. During his incumbency,"
says the platform, "our system OF
government has been restored to the
honest simplicity impressed upon it
by its founders. and integrity and
ability have been substituted for ar
tifice and incapicity in public places,
the civil service has been purified.
elevated and improved" Was there
ever such unauthorized rot? Every
word of this declaration is notorious
ly and abominably false, and every
intelligent man knows it. Under
Cleveland the public service has been
prostituted to a degree never before
known in the country's history, and
every department of government has
suffered by the substitution of mex
perienced men for old.and tried en-
ployes and every intelligent man
knows it. What is to be accomplish
ed by such naIpable lying? Nobody
will be deceived. Every honest man
will be Disguised.
Is it possible that this arrant n.y.
pocrisy is to be persisted in by the
Administration, and carried through
the coming campaign ? 1t would
seem so. The New York platform
was prepared under the direction of
those close to the President, and is a
type of what may be expected in the
national platform. In its assumptions
il is monstrous. II assumes that the
American people are such fools as to
believe that black is white because
they are told to. Notwithstanding
that the record of the Administration
is spread out before them in fiaring
colors, evidenced by unimpeachable
facts and unyielding statistics, they
are asked to believe that all they see
is the reverse of what it appears, that
faults and virtues, bIunders, tri-
umphs ana failures reform. Faugh !
1t is nauseating in the extreme.
If Cleveland presumes to insult the
intelligence of the country by going
before it in the coming contest as a
refOrmer, the majority that will go
up against him in November will be
something stupendous. The people
will not be mOcked.-EC.

Kindness to the Aged.

The loneliness Of age How few
think of this, and treat with due ten
derness and consideration those who
have outlived their generation, and
whose early companions and friends
have been taken from them. Unable
to engage in the activities of life, they
are no longer brought into contact
and sympathy with those around
them, and no tie of common interest
and mutual dependence binds them
together. Their views and tastes have
naturally grown apart. They share
little in common with others. The
future of this life has nothing to in
spire their ambitions or excite their
hopes. What calls forth the energies
Of Others has no inspiration for them.
They necessarily to great extent,
live in world of their own, with
which those around them are MOI
familiar. The communing of their
hearts are with the scenes of the past
and the companions of other years
who have long passed away. Lovers
and friends have been taken from
them, and acquaintance laid in
darkness. The forms they admired
and loved are gone, the eyes that
looked into theirs are sightless, ana
the voices that cheered and stirred
their souls have long been silent.
Their early world of hope and life
has become desOIated, and they sill
in silence contemplating the ruin
that has been wrought. They have
but little to interest them in this
world. Who would not do what he
can to cheer the loneliness of age. to
smooth their pathway, and comfort
them in their declining years.

were last winter. Cravat pins consist OF a single

Not rfhance for their Lives.

THE MADELISE WENT DOWN so QUICK THAT THE
SLEEPING CREW WERE DROWNED IN THEIR BUNKs,
The captain OF the French fishing schooner
Madeline, which was sunk by the steamer Queen
on the New Foundland banks on Thursday last
said after his arrival In New York yesterday that
his vessel sailed from Granville eight months ago.
They had very good fishing season along the
banks, and the night before the collision had
weighed anchor and set sail for Havre few
minutes before 3 O'Clock on the morning OF last
Thursday the Madeline was headed east northeast
and Was sailing with light breeze at the rate of
three or four miles an hour. The weather was
very foggy and they could see only a short dis
lance ahead.
"rhe first knew about the steamer being near
was seeing her lights" the captain said. 1.-THE
queen seemed TO be coming up at full speed The
next moment Came the crash. / had not time to
give single direction. The steamships iron bow
STRUCK the Madeline on the starboard side and cut
ner directly In two. Before we could LIT q hand
10 get the boats the vessel had SUNK and the next

boats were lowered from the Queen and was
taken aboard Twenty-one OF tie crew persisted.
lhey were asleep In their hunks. Those on deck
alone were saved. IL was impossible for the Made
line TO have avoided the collision as the steamer
was going at great speed"
