One of the most diaeouroging sign* of
Uu> tim.n lath* paxwwinano* nowaday* at-
teinrol by tr.o demagogue. France
Snttin. the Unite! State* anil even our
own ivuntry have Ikvh utflu-tel tltu*
during the pro.-mt generation. The type
varie* somewhat ill each country. but in
all it* feature* it ia the same. 1 he dem
agogue ia commonly a man of some fin-
-mey of speech. He bear* to the orator
tin- resemblance which the mule has t-
the tlioroughbrrol; the ineffaceable sign
of th* mule ia there. And this taint of
ignoble origin ia not only poL-nt to all.
Jilt it ia often the secret spur which
drive* the demagogue through hia de
structive couroe- Go u fully cxaisciou*
of the lack of aome quolitiiw which the
true loader* of mankind must j-ossons.
It ia thia f-wling which inspire* hi* fran
tic hate of all real or imaginary *~aal dis
tinction*, rather than any belief rathe
dogma of J-erfect vapudlty. He de-
strova the unattainable only
wretched among the ruin*.
Our Amoric.ui oou*ina have beenma—d
with m ray demagogue* since the close ol
their en d war. A* that lamentable «xm
diet w in a measure, provoked by t he
eloquence of reiU orator*, th.- jwpular
feeling aoems to be that words are every
thing. We have aeon m France, and
more rec iitlv still in Siiain, the real ro-
ault* of thia U-lief. The demagogue can
m&ua* the mob to deodj of violence; no

Vtrv fniiue^eik oi -viety; but he u

is rapidly ^Wouiing n power in poULcs,
Uhl ho thicftfem the truet ion ol tlutt
political rratem which to to
tuoduetion of the American intellect. In
New Kngbmd the .U-m . cogue of neoeraity
belong* to th* Bepabnara party, since-
that iitho party of j! * Bkviy
to be a recusant from the old Democratic
party, bearose in earlier day* then* only
could he have found fitting associates. He
may have distinguished himself by the
completeness of hi* aubjtvtion to the
Southern oli^arv'hy. But this causes no
blnth when ho aspire* to wield the pow
er* of a leader in a party of freedom. He
ha* invented a phrase against the neces
sity of a record of more than a year’s
length, and he deem* this asmSeient pro
tection.
The American demagogue is usually
decorated with a military title. Thanks
to the exigexkde* of the times, he has
g«A*ndly ouooeadad in forcing from some
administration a titular rank, which en
able* him to claim the position which the
. I v Adi .x:. i daring. K.-
may fail whAt hi- paivr reooded :> flour
ish’d on the tented field* and h»
demonstrate that wh to be
success ia impossible, thou e b
mcaa-mger may stand in the ante-
roam with captiTe flag* of some For
Fisher. Still, it is a wonde^ul aid to
demagogue that he ran sport the title of
"g iieraL” True, hia forwer
may coat him out from their reunions.
The veterans of a hundred fight* may
acroam themselves hoarse for Grant, or
Sherman, or Meale, and leave his name
unmentioned. But for all that a general
i* a general.
The American demagogue is of neces
sity a lawyer. In a country where every,
thing i* reduced to law the expounder
the system naturally obtains influence.
But the demagogue who can join to his
other attainments the art! of the petti-
fogger need set hardly any limit* to his
ambition. From his assidion* study of
the dirtier intricacies of his profession he
learn* to avoid the trenchant question,
and to glose over evasion with apparent
frankness. He learns how to employ the
damning insinuation, the ribald Jest, the
unjust snoer, nay, the judicious false
hood. He trades not only upon the weak
nesses of tlie mob, but be avails of the
hidden follies of his opponents. To this
end he- maintain* a policy of his own, and
threatens his antagonist with on expo
sure, not of the weakness of hi* intellect,
but of the inexperience* of his own pri
vate life. He borrow* a curse from East
ern imagery, and threatens to defile the
graves of the kindred of hia foe. He is
obliged generally to blow his own trum
pet- The great and good have usually
devoted disciple*, who ignore their owii
individuality to advance the glory of their
master. The demagogue rarely obtains a
friend above the rank of volet. The reo-
■00 L evident. Whenever a follower
paasesscs the abilities of a disciple he be
comes the founder of a new sect. An
army boa many officer* of many grades,
but a horde of guerrilla* endure but one
chief.
We have said that the demagogue lias
to sound his own praise*. To do him ju
tiee, this rarely proves an ungraL-ful
task. He may indulge in a prefatory
whine or two over the hard fate which
compels him to repeat the praises which
have been heaped upon bim; but be
kindles with the theme and dwells with
enthusiasm upon his own tninseendant
qualifications. "Arms and the man." lie
sings, and "the man" in there, "like u
.umg with on illustration.Thu dema
gogue, in brief, ia one of thecuraes which
afflict the time*. Were he but honest,
he migiit be pardoned; but almost inva
riably he know* perfoeely the worthless
ness of his own utL-ranee*. He incit.-s
the mob, though fully awaro of the dan
gers of mob ndu. Jit- set* class against
doss, though be know* that surh dwtiur
tion* ore artificial and temporary. He de
nounces capitalist* anil exempts his own
competent private fortune from the op
probrium. He afTeet* to patronize the
the working mini, though his own defini
tion would sever him trout their associa
tion. He lend* a willilig car to every
juipular cry, aJthougu lie eouiprcJicml*
that whatever in it is not visionary 1*
vicious. Ho vituponib-i* those who liave
eomeil the re-ipecs anil trust of the com
munity, knowing that, they will not de
scend into the arena with him.
The lost distinguishing mark of the
lemagogiic is his roarardicc. He httnihly
licks tlie bond that chastises him, and lie
glorioa in the livery of his conqueror.
Has any superior iuqialcd him with a
pointed epithet, lie grovels in tlie dust
until a scornful rocouciliation is conccdu<l
him. No matter how har-1 the terms, lie
eannot rest until he ia forgiven. But
once mastered and enroUu-1, the dema
gogue easily adopts the manners of the
swash-buckler. He wields the power of
his master: he drags the re]>utation of
his owner in the mire to gratify his -urn
ignoble hatred. From the confirmation
of a chief Justice to the nomination of a
tide-waiter, nothing escapes ins eye. If
lie cannot olfoct anything in reality, he
does at least contrive to follow, in the
company that possesses tin* power. Like
the dog that follows the fire-engine, lie
fins "Hero U" on hi* collar, und bark*
loudly while his masters battle witii the
conflagration.
In thia inherent cowardice, however,
liea the real safeguard of the community.
It is not necessary to meet the demo-
gogo with his own weapons, pro
vided only that he bo 1-oldly confronted.
He will bluster on.l snarl and hIiow his
teeth, but soon with dropping Liil he
slinks into the friendly kennel. He is
brave so long as liis collar is insaribed
"I an Tom Tinker's dog;” but if Tom
repudiates the ownership, thinks his cur
is no longer worth tile annual dog-tax,
then indeed lias the fight gone out of tliat
canine.
Were t on American as, thank heaven
I am an Englishman, 1 should forever
despise myself if I allow one of this breed
to be my master.”

The Terrible Cnstialiy nt VVntirllo, fa.
Kruui ilie Wapelhi (la.) Ucisiblicaii. S. |il. ai.j
Ouo of tint most frightful scenes that
men on.l women arc over callcJ upon to
witness occumxt at this place Thursday.
Soptemlsir 25, at about iialf (>ast5 o'clock
r. x.—the spectacle of a uun descending
from a groat height with groat rapidity,
with the certainty that in a moment lie
will be dashed to piecos.
Prof. John H. Beley has been making
ascensions in Illinois and in this State ro-
eently, in a hot-air balloon. Tiie manner
of inflat ion is os follows: He digs a trench
some twenty-five feet long, and two or
three feet deep and wide. This is tilled V|ij»tl| (JporiTlil Pl’OnCl’tV
with dry wood and other combustible ^ 1 *
matter, and covered over. At tlio mouth
the fire is set. and a large barrel, with a
sieve in each end Li keep out cinders, an.l
covered with cement to prevent burning,
constitute* the chimney ..t ttic other end.
Over the chinwey the mouth of the bal
loon is placed, to catch the heat us it rises.
The mouth of the balloon is secured to a
strong wooden hoop *ix or eight feet in
■liouicter, and to tuis hoop arc fastened
(be ropes that descend to tlie bar upon
which tlie aeronaut stands in ids giddy
flight. He did not use a basket, as is
usual. During the process of inflation
tue flames come up into the barrel and
frequently ten or twelve feet into the
body of the balloon. When the balloon
is full, and just before starting, it is cus
tomary to liave some trusty man enter
the mouth of the balloon and piaeo a
cover over the top of tlie barrel, so os to
prevent danger from fire. His cousin,
James B. Spence, who travels with him,
usually performs this duty. Occasionally
Mr. Holey has started without this pre
caution, but it is hazardous, and once be
fore his balloon caught fire, burning
slowly without blazing, and he got down
in safety. Thursday Mr. Spence was un
well, und could not bear the intense heat
of the balloon, and the ascent was at
tempted without the precaution of cover
ing Lie barrel. The sickening scene that
followed was the unfortunate result.
The wind was blowing briskly from the
south, and it was not prudent to make
the attempt, but the Profesoor was to re
ceive some pecuniary aid from the Agri
cultural Society, and one or two of the
Beard of Manager* had given their ik-
sent to the appropriation only an the
ground that one of the ascensions should
be mode that day. Hence the induce
men:, in port at least, to brave the peril.
Besides. Mr. Boioy was a brave, conscien
tious nun, and he felt that he must re
deem his promise to make the ascension.
No sooner hod th* balloon been let go
than to the horror and dismay of every
one it was discovered to be on fire near
its mouth, and the Professor, instead of
tending on hi* bar, was holding to it
with his hands and dangling below. It
was a fearful sight, that sent on inde
scribable shudder through the crowd.
There was no outexy, but a sort of smoth
ered groan that ’wak more apjuiling.
Women sank to the ground, <w hid then
eye*, or burst into tears, and men held
their breath in awful suspense. Mr.
Holey did not appear to notice the tiro
until he had gained an altitude of a hun
dred feet or more, and then it was too
late to tot go- Besides, his assistants
sav that the balloon was not fully in
stiled. and no one of them thought it
iv 01 ild rise so high. Bat np it shot,
and he held on to his frail sup-
porl, the rianies every moment
cutting away the canvas above
the hoop, and thus hurrying the in.-:.int
that would launch him into eternity.
There were 1- ng ropes attached to the
of the balloon that had been uaed du
ring inflation to control it, and one of
these swnging out over the sphere came
r.e-ir lmu several times, and he attempt 1
to grasp it. Oould he have done so he
would have bad other means of *ui;-'rt,
