lied alike the givers and the receivers.
The elections were managed by clubs
and coteries; and, except on occasions of
national danger or political excitement,
those who spent most freely were most
certain Of success.
Under these conditions the chief pow
ers in the commonwealth necessarily
centred in the rich. There was no
longer an aristocracy Of birth, still less
of virtue.
The patrician families had the start in
the race. Great names and great posses
sions came to them by inheritance. But
the door of promotion was open TO all
who had the golden key.
The great commoners bought their
way into the magistrates. From the
magistrates they passed into the senate,
and the Roman senator, though in Rome
itself and in free debate among his col
leagues he was handled as an ordinary
man, when he travelled had the honors
Of sovereign.
The proud privilege Of Roman citizen
ship was still jealously reserved to Rome
itself and to few favored towns and
colonies; and mere subject could main
tain no rights against a member of the
naughty oligarchy which controlled the
civilized world. Such. generally, the
Roman republic had become, or was
tending to become, i'll the years which
followed the fall Of Carthage, BIC. I46.
Public spirit in the masses was dead or

tocracy. The FIRE. forms of the consti-
tuition were themselves the instruments

Up-tU'daJe funerals are Ueing con-

funerals Is meant funerals that lose

be made pleasing. IT. is d fact, never

loved one Is more manifest at the
grave Than at any Other TINE. Why is
this So? The sight OF the open grave,
the bare earth, the noise uf he earth
as 1t strikes the casket cW.r, oil pro.
duce an impression OF horror. The
up-tO-date funeral avoids many repul-
Sive features. The grave is decorated
with evergreen. The casket is placed
on an electrical appliance, mdnipu-
lated by an attendant, wnO stands
away from the grave, aud i lowered
by him. AS the casket dpScendS. the
evergreen covers the open space. AT
the lead Of the grave is erected a
stand upon which is a glass urn. 10
this urn is burned earth. When the
minister reaches thai part OF the
service where earth is dropped into
the grave, he takes handfuI OF this
burned earth. There is no noise as il

ChOctaws, though they have no COL
eges, have l60 common schools, in
some Of which the higher branches
are taught. They cost s35, 900 an

of the tribes, have but two schools.

schools, kept up at an annual expense
Of s73, 900 for the colleges and $1,000

them, because they are too expensive and
do not allow large profits. Mr.. Major tells
us that one of the elements of his cement

cases, altered Slightly in color and odor by
