soldier on the Democratic ticket at the

the Democratic statesmen Of the capital
are loud in their protests against this
insanity. This, too, with the Copper
head tendencies Of the man whose title

OF broken down veterans and sent fami-

Democracy to the soldier is no new

The fact that New Works Democratic

INTER OCEAN: The st. Louis Re-
public hopes that Illinois will not re.
call the late war in the present cam
vass or 'assail the Democratic candi-
date on the ground OF d~isloyalty.' 1t
says: The city of Bloomington. in
which MIR. Stevenson lives. was an
active center of aggressive l'nionism
during the war. and has been an ac-
tive center of Republicanism ever
since. and the high esteem in which
he is held by his neigbors and fellow
townsmen is, itself. a sufficient an
swcr to the charge against
him." There is no doubt but that
General Stevenson is a clever gentle.
man. and the Inter Ocean is glad that
his neighbors speak we'll of him. But
his politics was had twenty-five or
thirty years ago and has not inn
proved since.

Notions About sleep.

The natives of the Philippine Isl.
ands, according to Mr.. Foreman,
have many peculiar notions and prac-
tices. They are INDECENT in the ex-
'treme-in which respect they can
hardly he called peculiar-and never
tire of sitting still and gazing at
nothing in particular. One of the
rudest acts, in their eyes, is to step
ever a person asleep on the floor.
Sleeping is, with them, a very SOL
,emn matter. They are strongly
averse to waking anyone, the idea
being that during sleep the soul is
absent from the body, and may not
have time to return IL slumber ia
suddenly broken.
II you call upon a native and are
told, HE is asleep" you may as well
depart.
To get a servant to rouse you, o
must give him the strictest Of orders.
Then at the time appointed he will
stand by your side and call, "Senor!
senor!" repeatedly, each time more
loudly than before, until You are
half-awake; then he will return tc
the low note, aud again raise his
voice gradually till you are fully con-
SciOus.
