OoCs this hit You?

There is a gentleman living near
Cape Girardcau, who has been owing
for the DEMOCRAT since 80. We
haze sent him 4 number OF duns i'm
pioriug a payment ard have IN per-
son asked for it many a time. We
continue to send him the paper and
lie continues to read it. lie has made
no complaint 10 Us and We take 1t for
granted that he is well pleased with
the paper. The gentleman Is doubt
less in hard lines or he would pay for
a. good a thing as the DEMOCRAT.
We ere net going to send him any
more duuS, but ii he is an am bilious
man. (aad we believe he isl we are
going to make him a proposition. If
the gentleman will bring ut, within
five days fron the date of this paper,
che b.ind!e, chicken-catching cat and
one yellow, egg-sucking dog, we will
square oil even and set bis date up
one wear in advance. And to the
man who resides near Gordonville,
who turrowS the DEMOCRAT every
week. we will send tho paper enc
year gratis to kill said dog and cat.
We rake this unprecedented offer
for The benefit .of the county at
large.

The St. Louis Post Dispatch gives
the following figures regarding tax
lodging in Chicago:
~ small piece of real estate in
Chicago. worth $l,s0O,000, Is assessed
at SI53,O00, while another, worth
100000. which rents for $4,000 per
annum. is assessed at $4,000. These
are the first examples Of tax lodging
brought ont i'll the investigation just
undertaken H. the Times. In the
second of these case, the cwnrr pro-
tested against tie outrage and insisted
that the assessment be raised to the
real value. The assessor refused on
the ground that owners Of adjacent
buildings would object. 1t the same
time. however. the owner of the small
house is made to pay on the full
| value of everything he possesses. The
value OF real and personal property
in Chicago is placed at $4,000, 100000
bv conservative authorities, but the
value whlca appears on the assessors
books is s249,OOO,oO Such case:
show the absolute necessity OF
thorough reform of the whole tan
system if not tie substitution of an
another and better one."

auln. 10 SAY the least. Ii has
before existed 10 my rccnilec;ion-re-
firctin@ back over thirty years. Now
the question i, how to account for
this condition.
Ny humble opinion ia, Tie present
CITY government has ir9islatcd With
out any regard 10 the desire and
| wishes of q majority of the people.
They have passc'i ordinances-a!ways
in railroad stylc-whether popular
or MOTTO CRAFTY their W wishes
and the wishes of 4 few others, who
arc dirtators. They disregard the
fact that they are the servants of The
people, and as such are duty bound
10 consider the desires and wishes
of their constituents.
1t is reported that several members
of the city council lave rendered
their designations in utter disgust be-
cause of the uniriendly feelings cX-
istiug in that body. If such be the
case would il not be advisable for
the whole body to retire and let the
people elect a ncw city government,
out aud out. AS the lime for hold
ing the annual city election is Near
al baud: | think such a course would
be advisable, as there would he 70
extra expense attached to the cleo
ton. Aud if the present Officials
want tc he vindicated. let them be
candidates for reelection and see
whether or not Their actions will &c
ipdorsed by the people.
This is the proper way and The
only way to proceed. whereby 10 re-
store harmony in that honorable Body,
our city council.

Are literary educated men generally

serted frequently that sr, at literary
AND educated men are indifferent or
against religion. The cause of this
iIay be Ii in.tue or impress the
rilsSes with the idea tbst religion
an not satisfy the intellectual giants.
and that their superior edLca ion ell
in~.iteIs thnm 10 such an extent. that
t puts religious knowledge entirely
N the shade. History and statistics
:,rove such IN assertion not to be
rue. But it is true. that more notice
is taken nf The educated man, if he
il az opponent to the religion OF

men who stand NJ Tor their religious
faith. Statistics say, that GU o! oar

out Of twelve belong to a church,
when CT silithi9 OF high schools and
colleges. one out OF two is II member
of . church. and of tie educators
and professors. sever out OF eight are
members Of the church. Even IA

perfectly well in one person. Ii he

have met with trtr sixty men, well

them only three of them who were

What conclusions must Hc drawn
from this? If it,cc oHt of sixty cdu-
calpd men ignore Christ; 1t would no
very lame proof in favor of anti
Christianity. Bat rei'her ignorance
or education are proof for or against

AT this time, when the general
complaint is that-.money is scarce
1t will be an act of kindness to inform
the moneyless how they may reinforce
their pockets. j will acquaInt them
with the true secret Of m~oney-catch-
ing-the certain way to fill empty

full. Two simple rules, well obserTed,
will do the business:
First. lei honesty and industry be
thy constant companions; and,
Secondly, spend n penny less
than thy clear gains
Then shall thy hide-bound pocket
soon begin to thrive, and will never
again cry with the empty belly-ache;
neither will creditors insult thee, nor
want Cypress, nor hunger bite, nor
nakedness freeze thee. The whole
hemisphere will shi:,e brighter, and
pleasure spring up in every corner of
THY heart. Now, therefore, embrace
these rules and be happy. Danish
the bleak winds OF sorrow from thy
,sIind. and live Independent. Then
shalt thou be a man. and not hide thy
face at the approach of the rich, nor
sutfcr the pain OF feeling little wlirn
the sons OF fortune walk at Thy right
hand; for independence, whether With
little or much, is good fortune, and
pIaceih thoe on even ground with the
proudcst Of the golden fleece. Oh

with thee in the morning, and attend
thee nntil thou rea:hcst the evening
hour for FEST. Let honesty be as the
breath cf thy soul, and never forget
10 have d penny, Hher all thy ex-
lenses are enumerated and paid: then
shalt thou reach the poin; OF happi-
