least Of III, was likely to forget the
experiency Of 1S4s and the short
lived Roman Republis Of that year;
The doctrines Of Mazzini continued
to haunt him like bad dream. But
the war Of 1870 changed all tins.
The creation oftlle French Republic.
was therefore an unwelcome event
and promised trouble to the holy
Sec. And SOFT proved. Ihere
arose conflict between the Republic
and the ehurch, which was none the
less bitter because it was thinly veil
ed under forms Of legality. The
State, though professedly neutral /. IN
matters Of religion, passed law after
7 law which effectually manned the
poser Of the Church.
Politically and Socially the Papa
CIV and the French Republic were
poles asunder. Republicanism and
Democracy were in bad repute at the
Vatican. Their record was not i'm
maculatc, and though they some
times made advances to the Pope,
they could never come with clean
hands. So matters continued until
1890, when a remarkable change
took place. Then Leo Mi. took q
step almost unprecedented in the an
mails Of the Papacy; he advanced
halfway to the Republic, and gave
democracy kiss ofp:ace. In other
words, he issurd his famous encycll-
cal, De Conditions Opiicum. Events
| had marched rapidly, and democracy
had advanced with leaps and bounds.
The Catholic Church, with its usual
elasticity, was equal to the occasion.
Next a momentous decree was
launched from the Vatican. This
was no less than a command to the
Catholics Of France to give their adj
herence to the Republic. 1t burst
like bomb in the ranksof the Royal
lists, and was indeed pregnant with
important results, not merely for
France, but for the world.
That the command to the faithful
to adhere to the Republic to adopt a
milder policy toward the Church, or
bring the restoration of the temporal
power one inch within the range of
practical politics, is not certain at all.
Il was great triumph indeed for the
Republic, which is gradually dispers-
ing all its foes. Yet at this very
moment the Republic is not free
from danger. 1t is but thin plank
that always seems to separate France
from revolution, and that plank now
and then shows ominous signs of
cracking. Even forthcoming. The
fall Of the Republic cannot be called
probable event, but in France the
improbable frequently happens. 1t
would be singular comment on the
Pope's latest policy. 1t would per-
fectly demonstrate, as nothing else
could, it would teach more plainly
than ever the lesson that the func
tions of the Papacy lie wholly within
the spiritual world; and that outside
that world the voice Of the Vatican
may be as vain as the sound of the
wind in the trsc-tops.

Another Fact Of History.

Quite recently the Posr called the
attention of its readers to grossly
incorrect statement of ga fact Of his
tory" made by the louisville Com
mcfcial, in regard to the repeal of
the Corn Law in England. The lat
est incorrect and glaling historical
error made by our distinguished con-
temporary is that Jefferson was not a
Democrat.
To correctly refutc this absurd
statement and to prove that the con-
trarv is true it will be necessary i'll
the first place to get correctly the
definition of a Democrat.
A Democrat is one who believes in
the equality of all men before the
law, and who has faith in Republi-
can form of Government. He is one
who believes in the rights of the
States to govern themselves, SO far
as not repugnant to the Constitution
Of the United States, and who be-
lieves in UNFOLDING our national
honor and credit.
On the other hand let us look at
the Republican party and see how, by
q process Of evolution, it has arrived
where it is to-day. The first polit-
ical parties in the country were the
Torys, or Royalists, and the Wings,
the names being the same as those
of the two parties in England at the
time. The Wings soon called them
selves strong government Wings.
They soon merged into the Federal
party, who, led by Alexander l!amil-
ton, were in favor of a strong central
izell government at Washington.
They had as their opponents the
anti-Federalists. When Jefferson
was elected to the Presidency the
death lsnell Of the Federalists was
sounded, but they soon came again
to the front under the nom dc plume
of Republicans, and under that name
the Federalists stand to-day.
From tile very origin of the party
down to the present day it has been
dramatically and absolutely opposed
to the creed and faith of Jefferson.
1t has always been in favorof loose
construction OF the organic law-the
constitution, and have on numerous
occasions warped that instrument to
meet their own merccnary and COR
rupt ends. They twisted it during
the war, and perpetuated themselves
in power for twenty-five years there
by. 1t was born IN lnlquity anu mas
become tlebased by power.
Thus we see that the great Com
moner Jefferson had nothing IN COM
mon with that party. Whom in
Washington's Cabinet with iIamil-
ton, the towering giant,of the Fed
ealists, the two differed OH almost.
every question, aud it was with the
greatest of difficulty that Washing
ton could keep Jefferson with him
for three years.
When Hamilton established the
alien and sedition laws, what did

Ths Congressional bee is buzzing. and
tho Lebanon Nc,rs comes to the defence
Of the Honorables Daniel and G. f. Trigg,
ofAbnsdon. 1t is supposed thsNewS knows
what it is talking about, but what it has
to say has 10 more reference to anything
the PosT said than the man in tho moon.
1t is fault that some newspapers can't
get over, that of going off half cooked.
The Posr simply said that in its opinion
ne Washington county man would receive
the nomination. 1t based its opinion up
on the fact that in Washington county
there were two rings, unreconciled and
irrcconciabe, and further that If this
were not the case, no Abingdon man
should receive the nomination simply be-
cause they want ed the Garth with a fcn@
around 1t. We had no personal allusion
TO Mr.. Trigg, or to anybody else. Both
the Triggs are men Of ability, but they
happen to reside at the wrong end Of this
part of Gods green foot-stool.

1t is really surprising how swiftly news
travels in this little city. The speed OF
electricity is not a circumstance. A gen.
tleman recently told an aged man,
in icst, that he was to be married soon.
This harrister left his work and wentim
mediately home to tell Mrs, so she
could tell it ut the first meeting OF the
Guild" or of the "Epworth League" and
thus like Metropolitan newspaper get n
':sccop." Well The very next afternoon the
young gentleman WAS being congratulated
on all sides, and found that the startling
announcement had gone the rounds of
twelve families, and that everybody had
been told in the strctcst confidence this
news scooped by Airs. 1t taught
the gentleman in question lesson, how
ever, and indeed it seems that be told the
old man just to sec if lie would tell his
wife.

KTLLED BY Escaped CONVICTy.
Depu Dexter, of. bibb County, Ala. Shot
Down-Detaiis of the Affair.

BIRMINGHAM. ALA, Jan. i9.-As a
result of the escape of seven conyicts from
Pratt mines on Thursday, one OF the
brayest deputies i'm Bbb county is dead
and one OF the cOnyicts now at the point
OF death at the mines. AS soon as pos
sible after the escape messages were sent
10 officers in all the adjoining counties TO
that effect, and requesting them to appre-
hend and bring them back, if possible.
Deputy Sheriff Dexter. of Bibb. receiving
one of the messages, and learning that
tine notorious outlaw, Jim Morrison. was
among the number. rightly concluded that
he would come In that direction, he having
found friends in his Old haunts In that
county.
Securing the aid OF two others, he left
for the home OF Morrison's best friends.
near Bessemer, and close 10 where the
Morrisons' father lives. About o'clock
this morning they came upon Morrison
and another convict named Davis. Dexter
advanced ahead of the officers. and called
TO the men, whom they readily recognized.
to halt ana surrender. Instead of doing
SO, they opened fire. with the result that
Dexter fell from his horse corpse. The
other officers opened fire. and Davis fell
with a bullet i'm his groin. Morrison be-
gan retreatng, ut the same time continu-
ing to fire on his pursuers. He made his
escape hundreds of friends Of Dexter,
the dead man, are securing the country
for Morrison, who, ii is learned, has been
joined by another of the escaped men,
and Is also known to be desperate man,
and it is safe 10 predict that If the pur-
suers and pursued meet bloodshed, and
possibly death. will follow. At late
hour this afternoon 1t was reported that
they were surrounded in the woods.

SENAIORs HOCRED.
Exception Taken to the Worlds Fair
Award Medal

WASHINGTON. II. G., Jan. 19.-There
is a tempest in the teapot of the medal
of awards for the Worlds Fair for the
design Of which 5000 was paid. The
proofs OF the medal received from the
mint shocked the sensibilities OF some Of
the senators and other gentlemen inter-
ested in the matter. 1t was stated that
these proofs did not correctly represent
the medal and an authorized cast was
secured. Yesterday the original OF the
medal was taken to the Senate committee
for exhibition to the senator's. who were
greatly shocked by the realism in the
figure.
Senator Wilson said he was against it;
Senator Pugb expressed the opinion that
the artist ought to be fined; Senator Gull
lom expressed the opinion that 1t was
unfit for exhibition, and Senator Villas
said that he would protest TO Secretary
Carlisle against its being issued, and that
If the Secretary did not interfere he
would introduce resolution in the
Senate condemning the use Of the design.
One side of the medal ~ historical and
represents Columbus just stepping on
the shore OF America, with his head raised
on high, giving THANKS 10 the Almighty,
the Loaf which brought HIM from his
vessel behind him. The reverse side is
emblamatica End supposed TO typify
America. on the left Of the shield. bearing
the words, r Pluribus Unum, TO the
right is a tall, stalwart, fuil-grown man
with a full front in state of perfect
nudity.
