and thea &c win pass away, "unWept UnhonOred
and unsung, (" with oil ieS grips and pass words,
signs and calamity hOwllngs, with les PefieEs,
WlIlts, Leases and Jerry simpson, and We shall
never see their like again.
The History Repeats ITSELF is very
appropos, for, be il remembered that
Nathaniel P. Banks, jr., OF Maasachu-
setts, was elected by the "Know
Nothing party" and in February,
1857, was chosen as the first Republi-
can speaker Of Che American House
Of Representatives. He had been q
member Of the previous Congress.
Now, If History Repeats ITSELF"
as Mr.. Fairfield says who knows but
what 'Jerry Simpson may be made
speaker Of the House Of the Fifty
third Congress, which will be elected
in 1892? Robert @. Winthrop, Of
Massachusetts, was the last Wing
speaker OF the House, elected in 1847,
and Thomas Bracket Read, of Maine,
elected in 1889, will be known in his
tory as the last speaker Of the Repub-
lica Oligarchy.

Of whisky by the fact chat its destination lS the
Ofilcial residence Of the president Of the United
States. Ic arrived BY the steamer FuEnesSla
from Glasgow on Thursday. The papers for the
entry were presented by Broker e. M. ACkersOn
to Collector Bergman Of the second division,

at the foot Of the invoice stated that the package

The reader will notice the foregoing
from the St Louis Globe Democrat
It certainly must suggest many
thoughts. It is q tradition that Ben
janin Harrison is an elder in the
Second Presbyterian church Of In
dianapolis Ind, that he was very
punctual and steady in his attendance
upon the weekly prayer meeting of
his church, that he was q teacher Of a
Bible class and that he somewhat
prided himself upon his holy life
But divesting this matter Of it's rela-
lation to individual and collective
whisky drinking, why should the
president Of the United States be 80

plate" coming from Wales, and at the
same time having no scruples about
getting tChisky from Scotland through
his "gold standard" and protective
tariff pal, the Right Honorable An
