JKFFERsOyIAN AND JACKsONIAN. We hear good deal nowadays about J eff.

JEFFERSOyIAN AND JACKSONIAN.
 We hear good deal nowadays about Jeff
 fersonian and Jacksonian Democracy, and
 the Democrats of today pride themselves on
 the closeness with which they conform to it.
 But this pride hasn't a very good foundation Thomas Jefferson, in letter te Governor
 Jay written in 1909, says: An equilibrium of agriculture, manufactures and commerce is certainly become essential to our indepen- dence. Manufactures of what we raise the raw materials and no more. Commerce suf- 6cient to carry the surplus produce of agri- culture beyond our own consumption to a market for exchanging for articles we cannot
 raise and no more. These are the true limits ] of manufactures and commerce. To go be- yond them is to increase our dependence on foreign nations and our liability to war. And Andrew Jackson, who is now thought | to have been good Democrat, said in . let | ter written to Dr. Coleman of North Caro- | lima: If we omit or refuse to use the gifts l which Providence has extended to us we de-
 serve not the continuance of His blessing. He has filled our mountains and our plains with minsrals-with lead, iron and copper, ! and given us a climate and soil for the grow ing of hemp and wool. These being the great materials of our national defence they l ought to have extended to them adequate protection, that our manufacturers and labor CTS may be placed in fair competition with those of Europe, and that we may have, with in our own country supply of these leading l and essential articles so important to war. will ask what iB the real situation of the l agrioulturisti Where has the American far-

 men, women and children and you will at once give 8 market for more breadstuffs than ! all Europe now furnishes us. In short, sir, l we have been too long subject to the policy l of British merchantsl It is time we became l a little more Amsricanized and instead of
 feeding the paupers and laborers of England i feed our own, or else in a short time, by con-
 tinuing our present policy, we shall be rem 1 dered Paupers ourselvesl

 It is frequently the case that the stamp of the town where letter is mailed and the date of mailing are of consequence. Very many letters are illegibly stamped at the of- flee where they are mailed. The editor of the Hartford Times directed the clerks in the business office to save some of the letter en- velopes as they came to the office. One hun dred and fifty were saved-in two packages, one of fifty and one of one hundred. In the package of fifty twelve were found on which the stamp could not be read, and four that could be made out with difficulty. In half of the others there were no impsrfec- tions. In the one hundred package were thirty-three that could not be read, and eleven that could be made out by careful inspection, part of the letters being illegi- ble. In nearly all of the 150 envelopes some of the letters of the stamp could not be read. In forty-fve of the 150 envelopes the place where mailed could not be ascertained by the postoffce stamp.
 A Chinese merchant living at Portland sent his wife and daughter to China some years ago where they were to stay Gas long as they pleased.n The girl recently returned to this country, but the customs officers denied her right to land without the usual certificate. Thereupon an appeal was made to the court. It appeared that the girl had been born in this country, was minor when she went to China and when she came back. Judge Deadly decides that under the fourteenth amendment to the federal constitution her birth in the United States made her citizen of the United States. This was admitted by the counsel on the ether side, but it was contended that as sheshad been sent with her mother by her father to China for an indefinite period that amounted to a recommendation of her citizenship. Judge Deadly says that her going to China and remaining there were by order of her parents and holds that the citizenship of 8 native born minor cannot be renounced or thrown off by her parents-a point which does not appear ever to have been decided before

HOW THE BOY's TOOK THE ALLI-
 GATOR.

And What they GOt for HiRa AfserWard.
 From Harper's Young People1
 Rob Tenley was a Pennsylvania boy, but for the past three years he had lived in Florida His father had failed in business and in health, and was now trying his hand at Southern farming, Rob was 14, and to him the country where they lived was almost a paradise. He had learned to row boat, to shoot, swim and ride, and there was con- stantly occasion to employ one or more of these accomplishments. If he could only have gun of his own he thought he would be absolutely happy.
 One morning Rob heard two neighbors talking as they sat on the fence and whittled sticks.
 tsI seen Phil Tanner yesterday" said one. ttand he says thar's man at the hotel that says he'll give s20 fur a big live gator. Wants him fur eirkis or sumthin'."
 Rob said not a word but walked of to think. There was no lack of the creatures in the neighborhood. He saw them nearly every day in the lake half mile from the house, but to take one alive was no easy job. He took into his counsels his friend and playmate, Morgan Pudley, Morg, for short, who was year older than he, and had lived in Florida all his life. Morg willingly con- ssnted to help. stipulating only that he was to be allowed joint use of the gun when they got it.. Rob rode to town that very afternoon, and had an interview with the gentleman who wanted an alligator. Roh was to deliver at the hotel door, within three days, one specimen of the animal desired. alive and uninjured, and moi less than eight feet long, while the stranger agreed to pay for said specimen the sum oi SEQ.
 The uaxt morning about daylight there was wild confusion in the Pudiey pig pen. Presently shrill and prolonged squeals an nounced that member of the family was g captive Fifteen minutes later Rob and Morgan started for the lake. Rob was bur dened with coil of half-inch rope, new and strong, and carried 8 hatchet; behind him came Morg, holding in his arms pig, with ! a rag tied close about its nose and it's feel secured with cord.
 They drove stake into the ground about \ fifteen feet from the water, and fastened tc | it 6 short cord, the other end tied tc piggy's hind leg. The broom-grass be. | tween the stake and the water was pulled l up so as to allow the pig to be seen froE the lake. They made running moose in the rope, and hung it on a nail at the enc of light cedar pole some eight feet long l and were about to loose the pigs bondi
 and conceal themselves, when Rob whis pered: 1 neck we can't hold him; he'll just pull righ away from us. 7
 ssMight drive 8 big stake to put the rop' around,n suggested Morg, looking about to some friendly stump.

children were fairly well. The ladies, of whom there were two, appeared to have suf- fered the most.
 Contributions of clothing, etc., were soon forthcoming, and in very short time
 the sufferers were as comfortable as it was possible to make them. A subscription list
 was opened and the sum of one hundred and twenty pounds raised among the saloon pas sengsrs for the sufferers. The island abound cd with cocoanuts and birds, and water was found. Eels and some Ash were also caught
 with pins and 8 roughly made hook, and,
 there being plenty of birds eggs to be got,
 there was nothing like starvation. The re-
 mains of six huts wers found, and numbers of empty tins and bottles, with a quantity of cut and stacked Grewood, gave evidence of people having previously lived on the island.
 There were also inscriptions cut on trees, but they were illsgible. Palmyra Island is about eight miles long by two or three miles wide,
 and is surrsvnded by numerous small Islands
 and coral reefs The party had been thirty
 nine days on the island.n

EDTT0MaAh NOTES.

An English newspaper correctly defines the difference between the Republican and Dsm- ocratic parties of the United States in these words: ''The Republicans are avowed pro- tsotionists, while the Democrats are feeling their way toward free trade."
 Men don't like to die when they have pen- sions. There are still on the pension rolls of the country 806 men who served in the war of 1s1s. which ended seventy-three years ago. It has been computed that if a proportionate- lY large number of soldiers of the late war live for like period there will be 16, 900 sur- viving veterans in 1888.
 An eccentric will will be contested in the courts of Pesth in December. A physician, Dr. Goldberger de Buda, left $250, 900 to ac- cumulats for the benefit of his posterity until the interest would be sufficient to relieve dss- titution everywhere. The trustees calculated that they could effect distribution when the capital reached $1, 900, 900. 900, but they de- clined to act. The will will now be contested by claimants in America, London and Mad- rid.
 Brethren, said Tennessee preacher the other day "den't put Pontius Pilate down as 8 bad man. He wasn't bad man; he was only week one. He himself would much rather have released our Saviour, but he couldn't resist the pressure of the scrIbes and Pharisees and the bowling of the rabble. He didn't have any backbone. He wasn't bad, ! but he was poor creature-in fact, there was nothing to him. Brethren, if General Andrew Jackson had been in Pontius Pilates place that trial would have had different ending"
 ! MT. z. L. White, the veteran Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, an. nounced five days ago that simultaneously
 with the transmission of the Presidents re-
 cent retaliation message to Congress pri
 vate communication was transmitted by ths government of the United States to the Brit
 ish government at London, assuring 1t that il
 need feel no anxiety as to any official actior
 that would be taken under the authority that
 the President had asked of Congress if |
 should be granted. Assurance was giver
 that the United States would furnish no casul
 belli in connection with these matters.
