come to get him to mend their toys,

to take care of them when a dreadful

to help them. That shows that he

and one who has that is never a cow

Another thing is very cowardly-to

Calamity howlers" menace not the
rich alone, but the poor and the great
middle classes most of all. Everyone
who had carefully considered the mat
ter knew that the census investigation
would show just what it did establish
that mortgages, especially upon
farms, are, in the main, evidences OF
prosperity. They represent the pur-
chase price of farms by young men, the
purchase price of lands which prosper
Gus farmers nave added to their orig
maj farms, to add to their productive
ness or the comfort of the owners.
They represent improved labor-saving
machinery, and when they are not evil
dences of prosperity they represent in
most instances money squandered in
ldleness and dissipation. Ninety-five
per cent of all the mortgages in this
country represent and were the means
OF the improved condition of the mort
gagors.
The continual talking about the I'M
equal distribution of wealth, and the
causes to which it is attributed by a
class of people in this country not in
aptly called calamity howlers," and
the continued classifying of facts, has
Tor Its object the creation of dissatis-
faction with existing conditions, the
rendering of personal and property
rights Insecure, the weakening of the
respect of our citizens for law and
order, the sapping of the foundations
OF Republican government. The pros
porous and wealthy are not alone con-
cerned in the maintenance of law and
order and IN the prosperity of the
try. The laboring, dependent classes,
above all others, are interested in main
tanning a stable government, in the
maintenance of the laws which pro-
vide protection to all citizens alike,
whether rich or poor, in such protec-
ton to capital as will secure its active
employment in the great industries of
the country which give employment to
labor.
Discussions of the propositions for
Legislative enactments to show their eff
feet upon the condition OF the people
are legitimate and desirable: but | de-
nounce the man who, for the urpos
OF advancing his own personal inter
ests, or the interests of his party, APP
peals to the prejudice of a class and
seeks to array one class of citizens
against another, and to mislead the
people by false statements, as an enc
my to his country, deserving no better
fate than that which has always over
taken men false to their country, men
willing to sacrifice the country for a
little temporary personal or party ad-
vantage. Concerning such men We
may ask, in the language of Addison:
is there not some chosen curse, some
hidden thunder in the stores of heaven,
red with uncommon wrath, to blast the
man who owe his greatness to his
country's ruin?"

Gentleman Brown.

Brown was simply a large dog, who
wa so strong, so fearless, SO intelli-
gent and so active in affairs that he
was considered the champion of the
town.
He could thrash any dog round
about, and always did it when it was
necessary.

to tramp dogs, and protected many d
little vagabond, and saw him safely
out of the town in good condition.
One day he brought a specially bad
specimen home with him. He came
into the house and into the dining
room, where the family were at din
ner, the wretched little tramp dog at
his heels.
He looked up at his master, wagged
his tail asking for something to eat.
A plate of food was set down and the
little dog snatched at it ravenously.
Brown seemed to think that was all
right. He did not offer to touch the
food. When the little dog was
through he asked Tor another plateful
and had his own dinner.
He kept the little dog for quite a
while, always permitting him to eat
first. At night he took the dog into
his kennel, himself sleeping outside.
He was not at all intimate with the
dog. but treated him as a visitor, not
at any time as a friend. The tramp
finally went on his way, strong and
well, and as plump and sleek as any
dog need be. What was said between
these two dogs, both at meeting and
parting, would be very interesting to
know.

Little Jack lives close by the stormy sea:
The son of a fisherman brave is he,
Who sails away in a stout old boat,
The bravest and truest man afioat.
Little Jack with his mother stays at home,
But he loves on the sandy shore to roam.
And be the first to catch a sight
O his fathers boat coming back at night
And be the first, when it comes to land,
To offer Il ready helping hand:
And there's not in the to an a lad so spry
In Spreadins the long net where twill dry.
And he. helps the men who have worked all day
Unload the fish in the merriest way,
And when the cargo is all ashore.
He runs ahead to the Gotta &c door.
There the mother waits, with the supper spread
But Stoops to pat fondly the curly head:
For fond and proud of her hoy is she,
The lad who q fisherman brave will be.
And then he lies down to slumbers light,
He dreams Of a boat with sails so white,
And he sails in dreams far over the sea.
And who so happy and gay as he?
All, the day be distant when from the shore
he may watch for the boat that returns no
more!
When he turns to the cottare with weary tread
And the mother weeps for the father dead.

Tae Glass of Goods They Will Admit at
Lower Cost Price.
The gentleman from West Virginia
Mr.. Wilson in commenting upon high
ad valorems under existing law made
an exhibit of two pieces of cloth suited,
as he declared, to the use of our labor
ing people, upon which there was a
duty of 200 to 300 per cent. Through
the courtesy of the gentleman have
those identical samples before me.
Here they are. A laboring man would
be ashamed to wear either. What are
they? One is a plush with cotton back
and warp and a filing Of mohair waste,
while the other has the additional
adornment of cows hair. There was
not an ounce of wool in either. We
placed a high duty on the stuff for the
purpose of keeping it out OF our mar
ket, and saving our laboring people
from being imposed upon with these
cheap fabrics. Having driven our
workmen out of employment by your
free-trade policy, you now offer them
the consolation Of lower ad valorems
on clothing of cotton and cows hair.
When commenting on high ad val
orem on crockery, the gentleman omit

six pieces, decorated. which cost in 1878
$11. rs, costs now but So, and nat a de-
corated set of 125 pieces, which cost in
1878 $46.7O, can now be secured, after
fifteen years of high ad valorems on
c~rockery, for S13.
Let me say to the gentleman that the
masses of the people, however, at this
time are not specially enthusiastic over
the prospects of lower ad valorems.
Our workmen are not searching for low
ad valorems, but for employment.
Shivering by desolate hearths over the
expiring embers OF the last handful of
coal, they are not solicitous about ad
valorem, but fuel.
Starving families clutching for the
last morsel of food, cannot be lulled
into forgetfulness of present misery by
the announcements lower ad valorems
on the necessities of life. Tramping
the streets, out of employment, re-
ceiving aims, lower ad valorems will
not lea the wounded pride of the
brave men who never before were de-
pendent on public charity. The labor
ing people of this country ask not lower
ad valorems, but work. They prefer
high ad valorems, constant employ
ment, and abundant wages, to ad val
orems, idlenesS, and want.

The republican party has been the
party of the common people from the
hour of its birth until the present time.
Every policy adopted and carried
through to completion by that party
has been born of an unselfsh desire to
develop the material of this
country and better the conditions of
the people without regard to class, sec
ton or party. The results of years of
republican rule can be seen throughout
the great north and west where there
has been no opposition to the onward
march Of civilization and progress.
There one sees every condition favora-
BILE to happiness and prosperity, while
on the other hand the south shows a
striking contrast in every condition
surrounding their people, because
southern leaders and a democratic pol
icy have stood in the path of human
progress and effectuaIly blocked its

A clergyman was explaining to a
class of boys the passage of scripture,
at is easier for a camel to go through
the eye of a needle than for a rich
a to enter into the kingdom of
God" He told them that this very
strong expression was meant to show
the extreme difficulty, adding:
"You know it would be impossible
for a camel to go through the eye of a
needle
"Of course it would, sir, on account
of its hump" responded the natural
ist of the class.

Do Animals Love Fun?
There seems no ease to doubt it.
Monkeys are full of frolic for its own
sake. and enjoy themselves most of all
when playing mischievous jokes. Mr..
Romanes' terrier performed its tricks
so consciously that when no one
praised it for them it used to become
quite sulky. A flock of geese have
been known to cause a number of pigs
to run the gauntlet between them,
merely to hear the squealing of the
porkers as they were bit at by the
birds.
There was a soldiers horse that
wa wont to be fastened by a rivers
bank, and the creature had the ill
habit of kicking at passing men, in
order to make them fall into the
water. The jackdaw will watch boys
at their games with evident apprecia-
ton of the fun, and the amount of
ROBUSTNESS in kittens is perfectly no.
