GOOD ADVICE TO GIRLs.-We have receiv
cd newspaper with the following para
graph marked:
"Don't marry man to save him. Ifha
is worthy of you and truly loves you he will
save himself for your sake. The man who
has not the necessary will and strength OF
purpose to reform his dissipated habits be-
fore asking good woman to be his wife is
not likely to reform afterwards, nor is he
worthy of such a wife. "
There is good chunk of sensible advice
in the above. The young lady who marries
dissipated man with the idea that she is
going to reform him will wake up to fud
her pleasant delusion rudely dispelled. That
is, it will be so in ninety-nine cases out ofa
hundred. The hundredth may prove an
exception, but he will be arara avis. Don't
trust to any such luck; it will fool you. Let
him reform first and give good, solid proof
of his reformation-like Sam Small. Then,
perhaps, you may trust him; but not with
out. If he fails and refuses to break away
from and abandon his slavish habit before
marriage, bless your protty face and loving
heart he will be sure not to do it after he
has Gagged the bird and has her in his power.
The girl who trusts her happiness to any
such fallacy and fiction that she is going to
charm away the evil habit after the silken
knot is tied will be pretty certain to rue the
act in tears and anguish.-Lynchburg Vtr-
Oiniun.

A smart writer says "What we want is
a condition of society in which mel can be
men," Come to think about it that is what
we all want. Indeed it is hard to find any
one who yearns for a condition of society
in which men, can be women-though a
state of society in which women can be men
would be welcomed by many of the fem

Elections in france.

Elections in Franco are all held on one
day, and that day always a Sunday, in
order that artisans and peasants may
vote without inconvenience or loss No
man, moreover, has more than a single
vote, and should ho happen to be on the
register of two constituencies, he would
incur a heavy penalty by voting in both.
This is a logical corollary of universal
suffrage. A man does not vote as a
householder or owner, but as q citizen;
and residence, not property or tax pay
ing, is the sole qualification.
He goes some days before or on the
day of the poll to the Marie with q rent
receipt or some other document estab-
fishing his identity, obtaining card,
which he hands in with his voting paper
to the poll clerk. So many cards, so
many voting papers; and frauds are oc-
casionally detected by a discrepancy in
the number of each. Tho vote is not
really secret. Outside the polling places
usually the municipal SCHOOL, stand men
offering printed voting papers, ready to
be dropped into the urn without any
cross or tick. These agents are so zeal
Gus in prOffering their wares that the
elector commonly accepts them all, and
as he walks mp the corridor, filings down
all but the one he intends to use. The
result is that as the day advances the
ground or floor is thickly strewn with
these rejected papers.-trank Leslie's.

PROTECTION IN COLLEGES.

One of the most significant results Of
this Presidential campaign is the over
whelming testimony against the doctrine
Of free trads given by the leading Ameri-
can colleges. Test votes were taken at
Harvard Williams, Amherst, Yale,
Columbia, Swarthmore and Cornell, and
The result shows plurality Of I, 1876 for
the principle ~ protection. at all Of
these colleges, Swarthmore excepted,
the professors Of political economy teach
free trade. Professor Taussig Of Harvard
and Professor Sumner Of Yale, are recog
nized authorities upon this un-Amorican
doctrine. but their efforts, oven with their
own pupils, have proved unavailing
Before this campaign of intellect be-
gan, it could safely be asserted that a
majority Of college students believed in
free trade. They could not do otherwise.
Text books were given them, in which
this economic principle was presented
in its most attractive form.
Mr.. Clevelands administration, just
drawing to close, has done great work
for protection In this particular it has
proved great benefit to the country. It's
persistent arguments against the princi-
pie of protection drew answering argu-
ments from its advoca ties in Congress and
the press. The college student, who was
wise and patriotic enough TO follow the
legislation and proceedings Of Congress-
soon began TO perceive the fallacy
of the arguments presented t
him by this free trade professor He
read and studied the speeches Of those
who are especially competent to judge o.
the practical workings of the protective
system in this country. From con
firmed free trader, he is converted int,
an enthusiastic protectionist, eager tc
dispute with the professor who force,
free trade tenets down his throat and re
fused him healthy protection doctrine

Several Ears.
Our little commonwealth through the
kindness Of Mr.. John f. Salisbury and
others, has for the time being become the
centre of attraction to the politicians of
the nation. 1t has, by the same token,
contributed more than the mite to the
success of the Republican party, since
the wide reaching and far Speeding in
fuences attaching to the unopposed con-
troll of our national Legislature, in other
words the political complexion of the
United States Senate is attributable
solely to the fact that Delawares next
representative in that body will be a Re
publican. And once more Delaware is in
debted to the above named gentleman,
and others in that it was, by them, made
both possible and worth while to the Re
publicans to carry Sussex county.
New Castle county alone was saved
from the wreck by the'staunch support Of
that very faction he and his friends, so
successfully defeated. In plain words
Saulsbury's friends in Kent county were
in minority, Wolcott's we're running
for Office. Saulsburys friends defeated
them. In New Castle county Wolcott' S
friends turned in and gave them as hand
some a majority as though no differences
ever existed between them. Democrats of
New Castle county did it ever occur to
you in this light? Perhaps not.
There is some talk among the Demo
Gratis of sending delegation to Governor
Biggs to propose that he request the
resignation Of his Republican secretary
Of state, John P. Salisbury. We hope il
will be done Since the independent
views on party nominations held by Sec.
rotary Salisbury, in the campaign just
closed, would lead us to believe that the
Republican party is deprived of valua

present position by our worthy governor.

large plant will be erected.
