Then hie heart rose up In favor Of right living ; then his mind was at rest and ours may be at rest also. Bear yotir burdens, catty your crosses trlumphatly ; do not live for the visible worid, but for the invisible, which is greater; be hopeful,laugh rather than cry. Remember that as the servaats of the King all power to given you in Heaven and on the earth ; bear It well, patiently, honorably, In sick ness or fn health, In prosperity ot In adversity; remember your Master ; never forget how much he loved you ; cling to him, he never will forsake you; forget father, forget mother, forget friends, forget country, forget even your»elf, but don’t foget him who In dying said : * Do this in remembrance of me.’ ” Queen ■Victoria Is aald to object se riously to the feminine fashion of wearing the hair in a fringe aeroee the forehead.

[Ncir York World.] As the froth of wild words beaten up by partisan journalists about the attitude and Intentions of the Demo cratic majority In the House blows away or settles down, sensible people begin toseo that the Demecratto lead ers hare never wavered for s moment from tbe purpose set forth 00 clearly and so dispassionately long before the veto of President Hayes was sent In. frothing could be more striking than tbe contrast between the cool and pre cise propositions of the majority In Goagre^ft and tbe chaotlo medley of Mstertlooa and declamation* which President Hayes Has afraid to expose to the criticism of hla own Cabinet be fore he baptized, It a veto and sent it to the other end ef the avenue. _ The House understands that It to dealing with a grave constitutional question In which precision of lan guage to os Important as precision of ceedlng therefore la the way best cal culated to aenure a thorough consider-; at ion of the terms whioh shall be ueed in giving shape to its purpose*. Tbe legislation put upon the statute book from I860 to 1868 respecting tbe rights of individuals, of the several Btsten, and of the nation, has In the Revised Statutes become so tntterwoveh with previous legtolatlofl that the work of picking out all the bad laws must nec essarily be slow and tedious, but Con gress ws hope will have the patience tq go on steadily aod with oomposura until It has been accomplished. Intimations are thrown out here and there In the news from Waeh'ngton of an attempt to fashion our legislation about the army on election days upon the Engltoh rules that, on days of vot ing for the members of the House of Comraone, all Federal troops ebull be marched by their oflloere out of their quarters la any town where each vot ing may take place into some adjoin- Ing town where an election is not ap pointed to bJ held, and that troops shall not be stationed within a certain speoifled number of miles of any voting place, It will be difficult to do this because voting In this country goes on In every town on the same day. And really there is no need of teuch rules In this country. Nobody objects to the presence of soldiers In an American town If they are not present In military array and not present under orders to Interfere with or to stand guard over the election or the polling places. As In the time of William III. in England so in this country now the ef fort to be made and the work to be done to to prevent the army from be ing used to Influence or Intimidate electors. Tbe policy of that sovereign was modelled by counsellors who were determined that the English nation should have a free Parliament, elected by free citizens at free polls, and whol ly uninfluenced and unawed by the eoldlery. That to precisely the thing which the Democratic party to determ- ed to secure to-day for the American nation, and with patience, judgment and good temper the Democratic par ty will secure it. If the vital and eera- Inai principle of our confederated sys tem of Government is kept constantly In mind tbe work will be easy. This Is that each State must preserve peace and good order within its own Juris diction. There must be no 6bstacks to tbe enforcement of Federal laws fn any State, but'every State must see to It for Itself that there are no such ob stacles to the enforcement of Federal tows within lU.qjin borders. There fa no such thing as a Federal peace dis tinct and different from the peaoo of the States, There can, therefore, be no need of a Federal police distinct and different from tbe police of the States. _ Fox * Sprain ox Wkakxehr Taka tbe well-beaten white of one egg, add a teaspoofnl of salt, and mb It weli over the sprain once or twice a day, GENERAL i«Rws. • Y , _ , ■ . “ ' C . —“ i I • • ; .
