is the one whose destinies were guided
by William Cullen Bryant before his de-
mise. 1t treats of the heaven of mug

denied that the young men of the nation,
including the sons of the founders of the
republican party. are identified with the
democratic party at the present time"
There is no other state of which this re-
mark is so emphatically true as of Mas
sschusetts. The more plain spoken
among the republican newspapers of
Massao husetts admit that the drift of the
tide is against their party. The Lowell

OF indie pendence in political action which
is cutting men adrift from all party obi

Silks and Satips.

1t is announced that silk is once more to
be generally worn. In Paris most of the
gowns are either made of it entirely, or of
silk combined with wooden. IL is fourteen
years since silk has been universally worn
Though we are adopting bright rolors, we
have by no means turned our backs on
black, and some of the newest and pretti-
est silks of the season have black grounds
with brocaded flowers. Many of the black
grounds appear shot with the color en-
ployed IN the brocades. Some of the more
important stripes are intended TO be intro
duced with plain silk or WOOL as petticoats
visible ut the side, and as trimmings for the
bodices
Bengaline has quite taken the place of
fable, the newest has thick and decided
cord, and has been brought out under the
name Of Tyrolienue. Satin remains the
most fashionable fabric for wedding gowns.

The total number of patents issued
since the establishment of the Office at
Washington is nearly half million
and they are increasing at the rate OF
about $4,000 II year. In no country on
the globe does inventive genius appear
to be SO active as in America, or so
fruitful of valuable results. The me-
chanical discoveries which have been
made in the United States during the
past century have revolutionized the
method of living throughout the civ
ilized world. BY annihilating space
and distance, land bringing the remotest
corners of the globe into communica-
tion, they have simplitied the problems
of commerce and have made the whole
world kin. Steam and electricity have
surmounted the barriers of nature, and
science is daily performing miracles
which, a hundred or even fifty years
ago,were regarded as beyond the reach
of human skill.-EX.

The editor of the JOURNAL short
time ago was made to feel very proud
over receiving from the officers of the
2lst Reg't, beautiful printed docu-
ment, making him an honorary member
of that Reg't. Ever since our first
acquaintance with the members of this
regiment we have felt proud of them
and we have felt happy to meet and be
with them on various occasions. Their
record for bravery on the field, and
the sutferings they endured in the pro-
lection of home and flag is such that
all honor and respect them, and to be
thus made an honorary member of the
regiment is an honor of which any man
should feel justly proud. We thank
the regiment and hope that no act of
ours may ever cause any hero of the
late war to feel that we are unworthy
the honor thus conferred.

An exchange gets off the following
horse sense: Credit is simply loan
without interest or security. No one
expects to get money, even from his
best friend, without giving good
security and paying interest until it is
returned. But everybody asks the
merchant tradesmen, who have turned
thei. money into goods, to let them
have goods and wears 'on their bear
word that they will pay for them in
time. None expect to return the goods
or pay interest, and so many do not
pay at all that the financial records OF
this country show that eight merchants
out of ten die bankrupt. Do you see
the reason why the credit system is Z
fraud and ought to be abolished?p
