Parents and Children.

There are parents who manifest theh love for - children by gratifying every Wish and abjuring all authority. They are surprised in time that their children neither heed nor respect them. The fault is their own. The very ract that they exercise no controlling influence led to a feeling of contempt. There was no authority to respect, and no qualities that especially commanded confidence. A firm kind heart is felt and appreciated by children. They are keen readers of human nature and know when they are firmly or weakly governed. Such commands as are given should be so manifestly just as to have the approval of their judgments. They know when they are wrongly punished and understand when harsh rebukes are the mere outgrowth of the parent’s irritation and not of the child’s wrong. Confidence and love can be inspired by sympathetic firmness better than by mere indulgence. A father said once to his son, who deserved punishment: “My son if it will better impress you with the wrong you have done, I will expose myself to the punishment that belongs to you.” The lad felt the rebuke and begged to be punished and reformed.— Philadelphia Call. -—- ■ The young king of Biam is a reformer.

“The Union, the Common Heritage of the People.”

At the banquet of the Columbus» Ohio, Jackson Club, held January Bth, eve, ex-Senator Allen G. Thurman responded to the above sentiment in the following appropriate language: Mr. President— We have assembled to-night, not to make a platform for the Democratic party of the United States; not to set at work any party machinery for the political advancement of any person whomsoever; not to sit in judgment upon, or to ostracise, true men of our party, because in some particulars they may differ from us in regard to men or manners; but we are here assembled to do what we can to reinvigorate the fundamental principles of our party; to bring about, as far as possible, unity of sentiment aud of action; to renew our devotion to the union of the States, and to gather inspiration from the example and teachings of great men whose valor an>. whose virtues we this night celebrate. And what better homage can we pay to him who fo’t, when a child, to achieve our independence; who fought, when a man, to maintain and preserve it; and who, when at the head of the Government and at a dangerous crisis in our country’s history, utter d the ever memorable sentiment: ‘The Union: It must and shall be maintained,’ than to declare, as we do, in the toast just r' ad, that the Union is the common heritage of patriots? Yes, Mr. Pre.-ident, it is so; and ought to be so. Men may have been misguided and gone wrong in the party; but, whate er may be a man’s history, if he is to-day, and means to be in the future, a true, devoted friend of the. Union, that Upjqp if a part of Lib heritage. It can not be necessary to speak to an audience like this of the advantages, nay, the nec ssity, of the Union, but it maybe proper to say something of the means b which it can be preserved. For, although the Union may be, and I think it is, stronger to-day than it ever was beb re, yet it would be a mistake to suppose that it will never in the long course of time encounter danger: that will require the utmost w i sdom and patriotism to meet and counteract. We ha\*e now a population of G0,000,00u people. If the Union lasts another 100 years or.r population, at th *, rate of increase that has hitherto prevailed, will be nearly or quite 500, 000,000 —nearly 200,000,000 more people than now inhabit the whole continent of Europe. 80 numerous a population —intelligent, active, industrious, ( educated— has been seen under the rule of one Government on the face of the globe. But if such shall be our condition 100 yeas Pence, what will it be when two or three or more centuries shall have rolled away? Manifestly, hold such a vast population, with a|prodigious diversity of interests and occupations, feelinhs and opinions, firmly united under one flag, will require a degree of wisdom, knowledge and patriotism that has never yet been displayed in the Government. Some persons suppose that the Union can be preserved only by the consolidation of all substantial powers in the hands of the Federal Government; thus in effect practically destroying the home-rule of our State Governments which has been productive of so muck content. For myself, I am of the {opinion entertained by the father of the Democracy that such consolidation, instead of being preservative, would be certainly deetructive of the Union. Whi e I fully agree with those who assert that the General Government should be cheerfully sustained in the exercise of all the powers conferred upon it by the Constitution, I it the same time think that no feature in our complex system of government is more deserving of preservation, more necessary for the security of liberty and the promotion of the best interests and happiness of the people

than the home rule of our State Governments. And because this home rule is the cherished doctrine of the Democratic party, I think that the preservation of the party is almost a synonym for the preservation of liberty and the liuion. I think that the Democratic party isth 4 natural party of free institutions, and that it will be indestructible so long as freedom exists in America. If lam co.reet, then to say that we are Democrats is to say that we nre Union men and unswerving friends of liberty nnd home rule. There is no time to-night to discuss so grand a theme, the most interesting that could be presented to the mind of an American citizen. All th.t I can do in concludingjmy brief remarks is to conjure you to cherish a deep and unfaltering love of your free institutions, to inculcate this love m the minds of your children, and never, under any circumstances, however appalling, to despair of the republic.

Right Here at Home.

Chicago Hsrald: Pleasant Valley Bounds sweetly to the ear. It is in Pennsylvania. It was there not long since th 4i t the coal mine owners starved their emplo : es into submission. There is considerable activity herefcnow. Wnen the miners employed there left their work the other day 150 Hungarians were s nt for to take their places. The Hungarians belong to an, element which is increasing with great rapidity in the coal country. They are called strike breakers,! ecause thoy work so much cheaper |than Americans do that they may always he had when any trouble exists with the other workingmen as to their wages. VV hen the Hungarians had been s nt into the pit it was found that th strikers had surrounded the property and would im4 permit anybody to leave or enter their lines. Armed guards were sent for, but even with these it was seen that if nctnal war was to be avoided the new men must bo kept in the mine. So the Hungarians are living where they work and the strikers me camped all around them, threatening all who attempt to go to their rescue. Such provisions as reach the Hungarians are smuggled through the lines. Several men vho have attempted to carry supplies to them have been beaten almost to death. In the surrounding country the fences and dead walls contain plac rds in Hungarian warning all people of that nationality to keep away from the Pleasant Valley mines on pain of death, and the fact that some Hungarians in the vicinity have been stricken *»ith- a mysterious sickness leads to the belief that certain wells have been poisoned. The strikers have been turned out of their huts, and they and their families are camped on the hills, supported by the contributions of fellow workingmen elsewhere. This is a protected industry.— The place where,these things are going on is not in Siberia or in the Black Mountains.. It is in Pie sant Valley, in Pennsylvania, where they have many millionaires and the most degraded labor that is to be found in America. The lunch and meals, gotten up by Antrim are attracting a patronage to that highly appreciated by the proprietor i hereof., Antrim says his aim will be to deserve it. *

Charles Mathews’ Wit.

A correspondent of the Whitehall Review writes: “Let me tell you a semitlieatrieal story, which [ do not think has ever been in print. When I was a boy I used to go to the Office of an eminent iimi of solicitors, the head partner in which used to give me tickets for the theater. One day he asked me if I would like to see Charles Mathews. I replied in the affirmative. ‘Wei!,' he said, ‘l’m just sending a writ up to him, and I’ll ask for a ticket for you at the same time.’ I returned in the afternoon, and my friend handed mo a pass for the theater, and at the same time gave me Charles Mathews’ letter which accomSanied it The letter ran: ‘Dear Blank—[erewith the ticket for which you have wit»*»
