WALLLNGEORD.

Captain Toney Smith, colored who lives at the north end of the lake, has made complaint to Prosecuting Attor- ney Bartholomew that William Hayden and Jack Linnehan came up to his house on different occasions and com unitted a serious breach of the peace. On the visit of Thursday night they broke in the door and he escaped by @ back window and went after an officer. Friday there was disgraceful fight in saloon in North Colony street, in which the same persons were paFti- cip@nts. Writs for their arrest were placed in the hands of Officer Reilly, who, with Officer Mooney and Sheriff Austin, made a search for the two ac- cused men, but were unable to capture them, although there was lively chase through the cemetery on North Colony street. At the last accounts the pair had not been captured. Smith claims that one of the men flourished re volver and threatened to blow up the house with dynamite.
 Past Commander l.. A. Northrop en- tertailed the members of A. H. Dutton post, c. A. R., Friday evening by an in- teresting history of the old liberty pole that many years ago stood in the cen- ter of the square at Main and Center streets and was presented to the town by Moses Y. Beach. The pole was 150 feet high and was surmounted by large copper ball. The first flag and dong streamer was flung to the breeze July A. 1861; later the copper ball was struck by lightning and thrown to the ground, and the pole splintered to the cross trees. A new topmastswas put in its place, but the entire pole was ruin ed later by catching fire at the cross trees on the fourth of July from fire works and finally was cut down and al- most forgotten. Comrade Northrop pre- scented the post with a piece of the original pole which will be laid up in the archives amongVthe other cherished relics,

Our Country.

From the time when the poor and
scattered colonists revolted against
their unjust treatment by tho British
crown, an appeal to the patriotism OF
the American people has never fallen
on deaf cara il the appeal was accom-
panied by a cali to arms, Men and
money have always come forth in an'
swer TO the drum beat. This is much to
our credit as people, and We may be
sure that the world has taken due
notice thereof and will govern itself &C.
cOrdlugIy
What has been will DO again when
ever the occasion sball arise. But war
is not tho normal state OF civilized men
and nations. Nor is that the most I'D.
mirabIo form OF patriotism which thinks
Of country only when tho drums are
beating and the fighting men are flock.
ing TO the national standard,
Patriotism in its bost and most ser.
yicsable form is that which shows itself
in civic virtue that is ALWAYS alive,
always aggressive, that never lets up on
an excess, an abuse that meRaces the
public welfare. Itisa good thing for
nation when its people are ready to de-
fend its honor and its integrity against
all Corners; a better thing, because
there is moro use Tor II, when the poo.
pie are ready to defend it against foes
within and eager to purge it Of internal
disordera
tn the ono hundred and nineteen
years that have passed since tho Declar-
alton of Independence was proclaimed
we have had our troubles, but in spite
Of them all we have shot ahead OF other
nations in wealth and in intelligence.
Never before has the world seen under
one government 90 many well.to.do
people or so many people who can read
and write.
This is an achievement Of which We
have a right to be proud. It has given
us enviable distinction among all the
nations that have inhabited the earth
and left history, In the face OF all
this it is strange that the p eople Of this
country arc only beginning to SEQ and
to try to strengthen the weak point in
our armor. It has only begun to bo
realized that in the matter OF local
government wo arc behind almost every
nation Of Europe
Intelligent foreigners look upon our
great cities and their bad government
as so many menaces to the stability OF
the republic. They arc unable to SOC
how 90 many sinks of lniquity eau ex.

dermining and overturninG the whole
national structure,
We have begun, but only begun, to
look to tho matter Of city government.
aud it Is found to DO about the most
difficult problem we have to deal with.
The civic conscience is hard to arouse,
but II seems to DO responding to the Of.
forts OF earnest men and the evident
needs OF the situation. This lie not the
heroic patriotism OF war time, but it is
patriotism OF a high degree and has its
own incstimable value.
Pushed to conclusion it will remove

A woman, writing in a woman's
paper. gives poverty as tho reason for
most long engagements. Men find the
struggle for existence hard one aud
hesitate to bring misery upon family.
II this DO true it is very crOditAblo to
the mon who hesitate. IL it tFue2
II statistics on the subject were avail.
ablo We think they would show more
long engagements among tho rich aud
tho well.to.do than among the poor.
Marriage is entered into By the poor
with remarkable freedom. There seems
to be little thought for the morrow.
Mon and women marry because they
want 10 marry, leaving tho future to take
care OF itsoli. Tho man may DO settled
in no work from which he could OK poet
livelihood for himself, much less for a
family, but the marriage iH performed
aud tho family comes. Misery comes
also, but thoro Is no thought OF that on
the wedding day.
Whether engagements to marry
should DO long or short depends so
much on tina circumstances OF each case
that no general law on tho subject can
DO laid down; but this law may DO laid
down, that no man shall marry until he
sOoS his way pretty clear to tako caro- Of
family. Where there is u shortage in
tho food supply marriage begins to look
very much like failure.
