Thurman on Jacksonian Democracy. On the Bth of January, the Young Democracy of Ohio met at Columbus to celebrate, as is their wont, the anniversary of the Battle of New Orleans. Senator Thurman was invited to be present, but was unable to come. He sent instead the following letter which was read in response to the toast, ¢¢ The Jacksonian Democracy:” - | WasHINGTON CITY, Jan. 6, 1879. Messrs. John D. Sullivan, A. D. Heffner and others, Committee, Columbus, Ohio; . « My DEAr Birs: I fully expected to attend the banquet on the Bth inst., at Columbus, and to enjoy that reunion of political and personal friends on a da{ 80 memorable in the bistory of the Republic, and so much cherished by its Democracy; but, at the last moment, and to my great regret, 1 find that it will not be in ay power to have that pleasure. I am just beginning to recover from- a severe cold that has afflicted meé for a week or more, and I cannot but recognize the fact that it would be imprudent for me, in such extreme1y cold weather, to make a trip requiring 800 miles travel and crossing the mountainstwice. Permit me to offer a few reflections npon the tomst, ‘ Jacksonian Democracy,’! the theme on which I was appointed to speak. Of course some other speaker will take my place, and do justice to the subject; butithe grivilege may be accorded to me of jotting down some very brief and pertiu‘ent observations. I wish te reeall attention to some of the most marked characteristics of the Democracy of the time of Andrew Jackson. I refer to the time when he was a candidate for the Presidfncy‘, and when he filled the Presidential chair.

\ 1. The Democracy were then eminently, if ‘not pre-eminently, distinguished by their devotion to -the d’nion or the United States. South: and North, East and West, that senti.ment was cherigshed by every true Democrat. ‘Subsequent events chﬁv]ed, and at length for a time suspended, it in the South, but the happiest circumstance of our present. condition ~(thanks to the influence of Democratic orinciples) is thatthe love of the Union is everywhere restored, and that its presérvation is a fixed principle of the Democratic party in the South. i . 2. The Party was equally distinguished by its love of the Constitution. It sought to preserve it in all its vigor and beneficence by giving it a National and rational interpretation; and it battled, manfully and constantly, against those latitudinarian constructions that threatened to convert the Government into an unlimited centralized despotism; and, on the other hand, against all the vices that menaced the existence of the Union. And, permit me to say, that the principlez of Jacksonian Democracy, in this respect, are as important today as they ever were at any period of our history. : ; . , .. 3. The Jacksonian Democracy were the determined foes of monopoly. They could not be otherwise; for the very foundation of the party was the doctrine of equal rights. By whatever names they may have been called, there have been, and perhaps ever will be, but two great parties in America—the Democratic party, asking nothing but equal rights, and an opposing party whose leaders have ever sought, and ever will seek, special ovrivileges crested by law. Who can forget the great battle fought by the Democracy, under the lead of Jackson, against the Bank of the United States; and who can fail to see that a desperate struggle against a far more power‘ful combination of capital and privilege than was presented b{l that institution is now imFending? Will the Democracy of to-day folow the examples set by their fathers, of inflexible opposition to special privilege, or will ‘they prove recreant to the principles, the history, and the traditions of their party? This is a question that must ere long be answered. My own belief is that will be answered as it ought to be, and that the Democrats of -to-day wifl prove themselvesto be, what their fath rs were, true men/! They will be earnest but not rash; determined but not unreasonable; destructive of wrongs and abuses and conservative of all that should exist in a free Republic. \ 4. The ‘‘Jacksonian Democracy’” were a party of economy. The ordinary annual expenses of Jackson’s Administration (that is, the expenses of the Government, exclusive of payments in discharge of the public debt,) were but fifteen millions; or thereabouts. Now, our ordinary annual e{c&?enses are nearly ten times that sum. hat a contrast! While our population has increased but little more than threefold, our expenses have increased nearly tenfold. Is it not thigh time that we should return to the economical principlcqs and practices of the Jacksonian Democracy? ot These points, few in number but transcendent inimportance, I have thought it proper to note for the consideration of our friends. QOthers might be stated, but these must suffice for to-day. ' 5 - Gentlemen, I know that the bamiuet will be enjo¥ed by those who attend it; 1 trust that it will proye beneficial to others as well. I trust that its influence will be felt in reviving Jacksonian Democrocy, and in combining the ogponents of theé Republican party in ‘a grand effort to free the country from misrule and corruption. I have the honor to be yours truly, ' A. G. TEURMAN. "

The Effort to Disrupt the Democracy ' ' South. The disruption of the Democratic party in the South has been the one end and aim of Mr. Hayes ever since he first took possession of the Presidency of the United States. When inaugurated, he saw the Radical party so completely demoralized and defeated in the country, that nothing less than a treasonable conspiracy to set aside the will of the people and seize upon the highest office in their gift had been able to l{z'trt_ase'rvs;z it, éven nominally, in power. ie had experienced a personal exemplification of the fact that Radicalism was thoroughly obnoxious, not only to the people of the South, but to the whole -country, and he was perfectly aware that to attempt a prolongation of Grantism would be to give the coup de grace to the Radical party. Hence his efforts were directed to a more conciliatory policy toward the ‘South, hoping thereby that the hate engendered by Radical outrages in this section ' might, toa certain extent, be for‘gotten, and that the old ’Whig sentiment might be revived. In this way he hoped that an opposition to the Democracy strong enough to divide Southern political 3entiment might bea‘ef ated. — LS e i -He soon found, however, that: the wounds inflicted upon our people by ‘Grant and his malignants were not so ‘easily healed.. They might be scarred over, but the remembrance of the suffering they had caused could not be soon obliterated, and thus his hope to bring into life the old Whig pocty. Wes indeed forlorn, But though for this reason his efforts at his pm&o a épol;iti"rf cal resurrection, like his Civil-Seryice reform policy, swere soon abandoned in disgust, the subject of the d;#mﬁmt ?;‘:“:' : N ’?‘“ v.)x » ac.y h”?qy e@?? 4 !‘ ‘he one'dearest 80 the hoart of our de Jacto Président, and now he is endeavoring o make the Independent movement in the South the instrument or accomplishing his purpose. € . Evidently Mr, Hayes does not understund the temper of the Southérn peoplé. ' Ho Séoms to gmﬂtingtkat,%ke 4 ’ 5 'ug 77 “ : , ! s ‘prineiples, but can mwwmmp ‘enced by the power of lucre “‘W for place. He fo wyimtm that by deferring to Independent Members of Congress from -this section in the distribution of his Federal fleshpots, he

can buy up enough leading men in the South to enable him -to form a strong oppesition, which will disrupt the Democracy, and either permit an oecasional Radical here ange there to slip into place'and power, or, at least, to destroy the influence of the party asa paeey. : vite ‘ : As far as Georgia is concerned, we think we state the simple truth when we say that Mr. Hayes is mistaken in ‘his opinions regarding the effect of ‘his proxosed new departure. True the tendency of Independentism is opposition to Democracy and, therefore, leads to Radical success, and hence it is that the few papers of Radical inclinings in the State favor the movement. But as a general thing the voters are bitterly opposed to Radicalism. They do not think of the possible effect of their independence, but are only governed by personal prejudice, and while they may vote for an Independent, they always make it a sine qua non that such Independent shall be ‘‘as good a Democrat as the regular nominee.’’ If they could be made to believe that they are, as th? undoubledly are, giving aid and comfort to Radicalism, they would, in mass, give'lndependents a wide berth. We hope, therefore, that: this new effort by Mr. Hayes for Demccratic disruption in the South may tend to open their eyes, and make those of our geople who boast of their independence of ‘‘rings and cliques’’ see to what base uses a Radical adiministration proposes to put them. The Democratic party in the South may not be able, for all time to come,. to maintain its present solid qha]anx, but until a member of the only National and unsectional-party in the country occupies the Presidential chair, and until the country is wholly redeemed and. disénthralled, freed from Radical misrule, usurpation and corruption, Mr." Hayes and his followers will find the task of destroyin%' the Southern Democracy an up-hill work. —Savennah (Ga.) News. . , |

Education in the South. A most flattering report comes from all the Southern States in the matter of public education.: There never have been so ‘many schools open in South Carolina as at present, and the attendance of colored children at these is extraordinary. The same can be said of Alabama, where, as'some of the papers in the central portion of the State declare, the negroes show more disposition to take ‘advantage of the public schools- than the whites. We all know how it is in this State. Under Radical rwle the school funds were used almost wholly in politics. The ability of the Radicals to hold on to our State Government as long as they did was- due largely to our school fund, which - always furnished them with campaign funds. All is changed to'day. In the last'campaign the Democratic leaders promised the negroes schools, and they have nobly kept theiw pledge. ' This is appreciated by our] colored people, who are wisely taking advantage of the opportunity offered them to secure an education. It is impossible to estimate the improvement among them just yet; the new regime has not been in power long enough for that. The school returns of a neighboring State, however (Georgia), enable us to see how much the Southern State Democratic Governments have done for the negroes in the way of education. In 1874, some short time after Radical rule had ended in Georgia, there were 186,244 educatable persons in that State between the ages of ten and eighteen unable to read and write, most of them ignorant negroes. To-day there are only 85,630—t§;t is, under a Democratic State Government —100,614 ignorant persons, mostly negroes, have been taught to read and write. : This is what the Republicans never did for the negro. Th? found him ignorant and uneducated, but they never attempted to improve him. - The Southern Democrats are doing this to-day. Is.there any wonder that the negro has ceased to vote the Republican ticket?—N. 0. Democrat.

Increase of the Public Debt. Perhaps Sherman & Co. can now be induced to speak out and explain again to their own satisfaction if this little sum in subtraction is not correctly performed: S Total debt, bearing interest in coin, Jan. 1 08, ..o cneien soo 1,120,505 R5O T'otal debt, bearing interest in coin, don. b, 0. ...l 1 AOO.RIASEO Increas> in debt, bearing interest in C011L....qe-rsoesritiouunassines oo 82,979,000 _ Let us anticipate the explanation they will give. It isthesame that they gave before—that the increase is only” apparent; that the sixes have been called, and the money is in the Treasury to pay for them. Indeed, did not the Secretary himself for the first time incorporate in the January statement this explanation in order to anticipate objection? But there were called bonds due and unpaid on the Ist of January, 1879, just as there were on the Ist of January, 1878. Let us see how the statements compare: ; ‘Débt on_which interest has cedbed, Jan‘i.l& .$21,512,240 Dect on which interest has ceased, ' iranl, 8809.00 L 0 A K o 23404400 1n’cmaaé........i,.....‘.......:........ m,m

: The Beard. . Nor many years ago it was hardly respectable to wear a beard, but the beard movement, resisted and ridiculed at first, has conquered, and it grows more and more the fashion to grow on the face as full a covering of hair as can be coaxed ont. ‘‘The beard,” the natural covering of the chin, says a very old English writer, ‘‘was in ancient times looked upon not as a troublesome burden, but as. a dignified ornament of ripe manhood and old age.”” Our present generation, however, cares nothing for ¢ dignified orment”’ in dress, but very much for convenience and utilitarianism. It sees in the beard and, above all, in the mustache a natural defense for the throat and face against the cold, and equally in warm climates a protection of these parts against excessive heat. Persons who wear mustaches are said, on good authority, to be less less liable to toothache than others, and it is also said that the teeth are less apt to decay. The beard and mustache equalize the temperature to the parts they cover with their protection. The sappers and miners of the French Army, chosen in part for the size and beauty of their beards, enjoy an especial immunity against brenchial and similar evils. * It is related that Walter Savage Landor was a sufferer from sore throat for many years of his life, but was cured by the surgeon of the Grand Duke' of ‘ Tuscany, who advised him to let his beard grow. <‘Ye shall not round the corners of your heads; neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard,” says the Scriptures in Leviticus. In ancient times all men and gods wore beards. The gloryand beauty of Jupiter’s’ beard is dwelt upon by Homer, when the father of gods and men is first broyght into the Iliad. Alexander the /Great first introduced shaving, saying that in his Asiatic Wars the beards of his warriors ‘¢ might af- ‘ ford 4 handle to the enemy.” It became the mark of a fine gentleman to wear no beard in Greece, and dandies ‘ even removed them by ¢ sharp pitch plasters,’”’ as well as razors. Rome be- \ gan to.shave about 150 years before the Christian era; Scipio Africanus, the Younger, it is said, was the first Roman gentleman of note who shaved every day. In Cwmsar’s time young gentle- ‘ men of fashion wore a slight goatee, but the full beard was only ‘worn in mourning, or in days of great public calamity. :Ceesar Augustus and Nero were close shaved, but the beard revived again under late Emperors. The ancient Britons cut off their beards up-, on the chin, but wore long, shaggy hair and enormous tangled mustaches. A young barbarian in some German tribes never ‘‘reaped his chin’ till he had slain an enemy. The Saxons wore the mustache; the Normans shaved.

-~ In that wonderful specimen of decorative art, the Bayeux Tapestry, worked by Queen Matilda and her maidens, we can distinguish the two Nations everywhere by this sign. Of course when Norman William won the throne the courtly days of beards were at an end. King Edward 111 in 1327, one of the handsomest men who ever lived, revived thé fashion. He and his son, the Black Prince, were famous for their beards. On all the knightly effigies of that period ‘¢ the beard is forked, and the mustache is long, drooping on each side of the wmouth.” But the handsomest royal beard was Henry VIIL.’s, which is celebrated by *poets of his. time. France, however, in all ages has been the fogntain-head of fashion, and France at length went against -the beard. King Henry IV. of France and Navarre had a very handsome beard, though he bestowed small time or pains on it. His son, Louis XIII. ascended the throne beardless and instantly all courtiers shaved. It was matter of complaint against Sully, his father’s great Minister, that he appeared at the court of a beardless monarch in his ocld-fashioned beard. Peter the Great, desirous of de-Russianizing his subjects, imposed a graduated tax on beards. Men of the upper classes paid 100 roubles ($7O) yearly for the privilege of not shaving their beards and poor people a kopek. (about one cent) apiece. Close-shaven faces came back ‘among our ancestors with Charles lIL., being another of the things for which England kad no reason to thank the Restoration. During the reigns of the four Georges cropped chins were universal and though our grandfathers still sneered at ‘‘ beardless boys'’ as a figure of speech, they daily labored to be beardless themselves. Afloat and ashore, whatever the difficulties of the operation, officers, soldiers and seamen shaved every.day. During the past fifty years beards have been first tolerated as eccentric, then accepted as optional and at last have been restored to fashion ‘and honor. We how hold, with one of the old bards who celebrated Henry VIIL’s beard, that—- ** A well-thatched face is a comely grace And a shelter from the cold.” — Baltimore American.

The Boy With the Bandbox, YESTERDAY forenoon as the country people who had brought in produce to sell on the market were about ready to start for home, a boy appeared at the lower end of the Central Market with a blue bandbox under his arm. Among the vehicles was a one-horse wagon belonfing to an old woman who had just sold four bags of onions, and was ready to drive home. The boy approached her in an honest, straightforward manner, and remarked: ‘“Well, auntie, here is that bonnet, at last.”’ i ¢ o ~*¢ A bonnet?’ she inquired. - | ** Why, yes; the one you ordered atthe store a week n;fo. You’'ll look so purty in it that the old man won't know you. It's all paid for all right, and now I'll set it down' right here by your feet. Tra-la, anntie.”” ° ) That old woman knew the boy was making a mistake in leaving a bonnet with her, but after the first words of surprise she made no sign. She reasoned that it wasn’t her business to correct mistakes, andg-as soon as the boy had retired, she picked up the lines end drove up Randolph street, every moment expeeting to hear the mistaken boy calling after her, and every moment hurrying the old nag as fast as he could go. ~Atter reaching thecorner of

Gratiotavenue and Brush street, she felt that the boy could not overtake her, and it was only natural that she should have a lively curiosity to see what sort of a bonnet it was. If plain black, it would suit her to a dot. If gorgeous, it would do for her daughter. 'The horse was reined up to, the curb ‘and the driver carefully untied the string fastening the box and lifted the cover. A ‘“yaller” cat of monstrous size, feeling that he had been abused and insulted, and his eyes glaring with hate and contempt, came out of the box like e bullet. : !

People who happened to be in that neighborhood were treated to a curious spectacle. With one wild, unearthly yell an old woman was seen to pitch backward over the seav and then sail for the ground by the shortest route. While she was clawing around. with her head in a snow-bank, the cat; seeing her out of the way, made a spring from the seat to the horsé’s back and began a series of performances never known or dreamed of by that old equine, and the way that horse gathered his legs under him and scattered the old wa%on for half a block was wicked to see. ‘The woman, dug out of the snow by a considerate bystander, stood on the walk and endeavored to explain. A msn in the crowd picked up a wagon-wheel and endeavored to remark that' the whole outfit wasn’t worth seraping together, and some one in the crowd solemnly observed: : ““If honesty ain’t the best policy, then I don’t want a cent!’— Detroit Free Press. "

~ The Carrion Crows of Vera Cruz.” THESE black vultures, called zapiloles, are an institution of Vera Cruz. Tame as domestic fowls, they circle about singly, -in pairs, and in great flocks, roosting wupon -the towers, cupolas and housetops. They act as the scavengers of the city, cleaning the streets of offal and refuse, and, in fact, descending upon anything edible within their reach. They quarreﬁr ‘with hungry dogs for the possession of a bone, uttering many guttural protests during the struggle, and clinging pertinaéiously with beak and talons to their end of the prize. They haunt the fish market when the sun has begun to do its work upon the finny merchandise, and steal surreptitiously up behind the vendor, when his head is turned, to abstract a fish. Their expression, when detected before the theft takes place, is that of/ unimpeachable innocence. They s . to. say, “OhF I won’t take ztgyi:ging; I'm simply looking on.”” No one is allowed wantonly to destroy them, five dollars fine being the penalty for shooting- or otherwise killing a’ zapilote. Those within' the city walls are of the species known in the Southern States as the carrion crow (Cathartes atratus), though two other kinds exist upon the coast—the common turkey buzzard, with plumage of a more somber cast and red on neck and legs of a livelier tint, and the king vulture, monarch of his tribe. One of the most common roosting-places of the vulturzs are the crosses on the church towers, and the sight of three of these black coats perched 'upon either arm and.on top- of” these white emblems forms a novel if not cheerful spectacle ; one involuntarily thinks of the crucifixion and the two thieves.— Vera Cruz (Mewico) Cor.

. Riding on a Rail. . A RAILROADING is exciting business in this country. On most of the New Enland roads trains run. both ways every fifteen seconds. On busy days they put on ‘a few extras and the freights never count for anything. When you come from Providence to.

If you have'to change cars you get off at Mansfield and find three or fourtrains, all headed in different directions, all impatient to jump away like rockets, and you climb into one and sail away, and the conductor comes along, looks at y’our ticket and says, ‘‘Wrong train,”’ and holds out his hand for ten cents. When do you get a train back? Eleven and one-half seconds. Back you go clear through; ¢ this train doesn’t stop at Mansfield!" When can you get a train that does? Three minutes. Up you go. again. That train doesn’t stop at Foxboro. In four minutes after you have passed through the town you strike the train that passes the happy qualifications of going in theright direction and.sto#ggéng at the proper place, and you ar@ at Foxboro. . You have traveled on five different railroads, in eleven difterent directions, have %fme 123 miles and got to Foxboro in eighteen minutes. More or less.— Burdette, in Burlington Hawk-Eye. :

DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE. :’ i e ; Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. P_AIN— in the right side, under the . edge of the ribs, increases on pres. sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side ; sometimes the pain is. felt. under the shoulder blade, and -t frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism inthe arm. The stomach is- affected with loss of appe. tite and sickness; the bowels in gen. eral are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is ‘troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sensation in the back part.. - There is generally a considerable loss of mem:ory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone some. thing which ought to have been done. Asshght, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of wearingss and debility ; ‘he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly sensa-. tion of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he ¢an scarcely summon up fortitude ‘enough to try it.. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. - Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have: occurred where few of them existed, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the LIVER to have been extensively deranged. . AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLANE’s Liver Piis, IN CASES’ OF -AGUE AND- FEVER, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. =We would ~advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a FAIR TRIAL® .
