As we have stated, repeatedly, in the past, the government of the United States was a peoples' government. Monarchy and Aristocracy were overthrown.— Tyrants shed the blood of the people, and under the guidance of brave men and greut statesmen the people rose in their might, shed the blood of their oppressors and became the free- est aud happiest people of the habi table globe. Tyrants had shed the blood of the people and they thed the blood of the tyrants. In America the people, triumphant in war and every department of social life, laid the foundation of social institutions that rejected the gaudy titles, badges, stars and garters, aud all the other fopperies and gaudy insignia of roy alty. Our rulers were elected by the people aud selected by the people for their supposed capacity and political virtues, and for the sake of security were limited in the terms of their of ficial stations. Fortunately the sim plicity of our government enables ev ery citizeu to comprehend its nature and all of its operations as clearly as lie does the management of his house hold affairs. No citizen cau be igno rant of our public affairs except from an utter disregard of passing events. The man is guilty of a great public crime who does not watch the pro- i gress of events in our public economy and political affairs, whether they re gard the rights of the government, federative or separate. It is the sim plicity of tlie system that enables ev ery citizen to know at a glance wheth er officials are performing their duty or individuals or states are deprived of tlieir rights. Great events have occurred invol ving the rights of individuals as well as states before our present system of government was a hundred years old. Our great and unnatural war Is over, and many of our people do not clearly comprehend the cause of it. It is common for writers and speak ers to say they acquiesce in the re sults of the war without having a clear view of the results to which they allude. We look aud listen, in vain, for an explicit declaration of their views. It is very important that these matters should be clearly under stood and rightfully settled, for some dangerous inferences and con clusions may be adopted that, gener ally accepted, might lead to results of a serious and even dangerous charac ter. As we would require more space than we can readily occupy at this writing, we look and listen for an ex plicit declaration of their views. If they mean that slavery was abolished and the colored people^ were made citizens with the right to vote at elec- tion*!; if they mean that the secedefs yielded to the power of the majority and agreed to remain in the Union and make tlie best of this compulso ry situation, we uiay agree with them and even go a step further and say, it is the duty of the seceders to take up arms and light under the old flag for the comtilon rights cf all the States of the Union.

The Forty-Two Questions. | Iu the “Book of the Dead,'’ among I Fashionable Resorts. From Our Regular Corrospomleut. Watch Him,, R. I. August 15th, 1889. A correspondent to tho New York Sun writes that "Blue llsh nro actually begging to be caught In these waters.’’ This scribe may have struck a school somewhere, but as far as my experionoe goes, it Is the peo ple who are doing tho begging. We have seen a few blue fish hereabouts, anil there aro signs of more coming, but just now llsh oi all kinds are shy and fishermen are shyer. The ocean Is so rough and so chop py that It Is hard work to got out, aud not all the growls of t he boarders on “The Hill," can Induce a native to take any risks In the endeavor to tickle the city pal ate. Our fisherman at Noyes Beach, six miles to the eastward of this point Is as cool and placid as the undisturbed llsh In tho sea, when the cottagers congregate about him and bog him to ombark ou the briny and produce something for their dinners. "I alnt no objection,” ho says, “to any fool’s starting out on this ere beach and ketching all the fish la tho oshln but when I take my buat.’uver them breakers, It’ll be when I can read my title dear to dry land agin. .1 alnt got no business out there In such a surf us this unless some body’s drowning. My life may not be as much aooouat to you as your stomachs, but It 1b a darned eight more account to me." This always settlee It. hors of tho Stock Exchange. This Institu tion Is opposed to the small fry,and does every thing in its power to crush them. “Bucket Shop” Is an Importation. Itlsthe name for the lowest kind of drinking dens In London, The vilest liquors are carried away from these places by women and children In buckets, and from this came the name. Surely nothing more contemptuous and offensive could possibly bo imagined. As far rh 1 know, the only difference be tween tho operations carried on by the Stock Exchange and the “Bucket Shops,” la, that th(> latter Institutions permit the Investment of any sum, however small. It mny not bo as respectable to buy or sell ten dollars worth of stock, as ten thousand, but it Is a great deal safer, it seems to me. Still, us 1 never speculate nor never In tend to, I may not bo authority lit tho matter. The most popular woman at Watch Hill this season Is tho woman who isn’t thero. I allude to Miss M. G. Anderson, tho Me tropolitan Guide and Shopper, of 805 Lex ington Avo., Brooklyn, N. Y. Her work for women In lindlng an absolutely pure preparation for tho skin, something that cau bo freely and effectively used In tho prevention and elimination of wrinkles, tau, pimples, etc., etc., and something safe and efficacious for the scnlp and hair, has endeared her to the hoarts of her sex, who must have these toilet articles. The ladles who employed Miss Anderson to do this work have known her for a long tlmo as an honest, enterprising, untiring, tm- posslble-to-humbug-wonian, and they give her all the credit she deserves for S tuck and nereeveranos In this matter. ne lady tola me that she had used arsenic as a lotion and an Internal medicine for pimples until she became as white as death and almost too weak to walk. This was done at the advice of a distinguished physician. It Is impossible to exaggerate the mischief that has resulted from the use of poisonous cosmetics, and I eutreat those who have common sense not to use The Minister Hears a Louder Call I suppose somebody knows why these | anything that they do not know to bo pure.

There has been no line of foot-wear placed on the market in recent years that Jhus caused so,much favorable comment as lias the new line of shoe specialties for gentlemen and ladies which are being., so extensively adver tUed by M. A. Packard Si Co. of Brockton, Mass. During the past few years this firm devoted itself to the manufacture of Special Shoes for the retail trade, and the price that the Bhoe is to be Bold for is stamped on the bottom before the goods leave the factory. The name of M. A. Packard & Co. is a guarantee of quality, and the figures on the bottom insures the buyer agAinst paying an exorbitant price for the,'goods. It is a plan which the public has been quick to appre ciate, as the popularity of the goods attest. The prices of the shoes are #5, |3.50, $2.50 and $3, and among them can be found foot-wear for all classes, from the poorest to the richest. There are no better shoes made for the money. The $2,09 Shoe lias been for years an unrivalled leader. Ask your dealer for them.

General Sherman returned from his Western trip as happy as a boy after his first successful hunting expedition. “Just think,” ho says, “of snow-balling In mid summer. That’s what wo did on July 11th on our way up l’ikes Peak.’’ tlie •ancient Egyptians before and iu the days of Moses, it is stated that there are Forty-two Inquisitors, who examine tlie soul before the tribunal of Osiris tlie Judge of All, and accord ing to the answers, the soul is either blessed or damned. Many of the questions are of local importance and about tlie Kingdom. Others embrace the moral code, showing that the an cient Egyptians had a nice sense of right and wrong. As Moses was brought up in that school, and had the education of learned Egyptians, we can see a trace in the ten commandments iu the Egyp tian code. Says the soul to Osiris, the Judge of all when questioned: “Placer of Spirits, Lord of Truth is thy name: I have not privily done evil against mankind. I have not told falsehoods. I have not done what is hateful to the Gods. I have not murdered. 1 have not smitten men privily. I have not stolen. I have not been idle. I have not committed adultery. I have not corrupted women or men, I have not polluted myself. I have not blasphemed a god. I have not falsified measures. I have not cheated in the weight of the balance. I have given food, to the hungry, drink to the thirsty, clothes to the naked. If the spirit can answer tlie ques tions that he or she has not done evil, tlien they are blessed by Osiris. Man’s relationship to his fellow man, is close ly examined into and it wlil be seen from the above questions, that a nice sense of honor, truth and virtue and reverence for the gods are demanded The questions - as answered above were found on an Egyptian mummy, who had been laid away some three thousand years. His record as a good oitizen was found upon his person written on papyrus, and he had given his answers in advance, or a3 he ex pected to give them when put on trial. It may be well to state that Moses was raised In the palace of Ramessu II or Ramses. It was lie who knew not Joseph. He reigned (17 years, and had 60 daughters and 59 sons. Min- eptali was the pharaoh or king, who went after the Israelites. He was not drowned, for his body or mummy is now seen iu Egypt. Meri, which means dear, was the daughter, who had Moses taken out of the water. In Jewish traditions, she is called Tlier nmt his. It wilt be seen that the Egyptians made man’s future happiness depend upon good deeds anil fair dealing They were a very pious people and had great reverence for their Gods Jesus put right liviqg in a nut-shell, when He said: “Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God “ Good morals always lead to a good religion, aud a good religion leads to piety; aud piety lifts the soul up to God. A man’s faith, unless strength eneil and upheld by good works, is all stuff. God demands good deeds, as well us good words. Faith, friend ship ana forgiveness are the three links in life’s chain, and prayer, puri ty and patience, three graces which adorn life. The Egyptians had a practical re ligion, and lived up to it, anil it would be well for tbosu who now tread the earth, and imngiue that the Ancients were heathen, to ask them selves the question: * Have wo im proved upon the morals of the old eligions.

N., in an Interesting article on “Freaks, Follies, Fuss," holds tne following: “There seeius to bo an Innate, almost organic disposition In men and women! and the brute creation, too, to have “spells,’’ some In one way some in another. In other words, men and women mako tools of themselves periodically.” Your writer was right, when he said “organic disposi tion.” The so-called “spells” are the re lirraly and quickly on tho centre of the suit of some Inflamed organ of the body. bladder and the explosion that followed was almost like that of a gun.

However, the season Is accounted a fair one by the majority of the proprietors.— } Thera Is no more beautiful view In the world than that which can be seen any pleasant day from the piazza or the Ocean House. Across the bay Is the quaint, his- ! torlcand lovely old town of Stonington. The houses ard mostly white and the ten der haze which usually envelopes them, gives the scene a fairy like appearence Im possible to describe. The blue water In front, the blue sky above, with Its fleecy , clouds and the great tossing everebanging I ocean at the loft, makes a picture of beau- j ty Impossible to describe- “I’kore should be no oare in this place," I told rnyselt as I leaned back In one of the big rockers, nnd | stomach la inflamed with liquor, and the surveyed the heavenly scene. But even as ■-• * — ’ 1 spoke care was at my side. “I shall go back to night,” I heard a young Iman re mark to a very pretty girl who sat by one of the parlor windows. “Oh, well,” was the hard response "If you want to be a fool It is your own lookout.” “I don’t want to be fooled, nnd that’s the reason I ani go ing,” was the somewhat sad response. At that point an elderly couple passed me. 'He has brought disgrace enough upon us,’ said the man In low troubled tones, which the wind blew eight to my ears. "Yos but he is our own son, you know," tho wife re- j Viz: Stomach, liver, kidneys, heart burns, or some special organ of the brain. Tho "spells" are periodical diseases, and so groat with some, as to lead to Insanity for tho time being. They take in all kinds of characters and dispositions, according to lo temperaments. Tho child born Into the world, with alcoholic brain calls, in herited from a father or mother who habitually drink, and they needjnot drink ■to drunkenness—will have spells for liquor. The stomach and brain cells are both In flamed lor the time being, and until there Is a healthful reaction, you must look out for some sort of out break, or meixly dis position. Tho poor dyspeptic, who has his turns of a weak stomach knows all about snch feelings. With some It leads to suicide, with others to drink, with others to melancholy; justas tho blood effects the different brain cells. Look at u half dozen men drink and see how differently they will act. One will want to light; another be very sociable; another very humorous; another very moody; another very musical ect., eet. The blood playing with more force than usual upon the brain and certain organs of the brain, mako men act and talk as they then feel. The man is in an abnormal condition, ha has lost control of his mental equili brium and Is not blraseir. A drunken man Is crazy to alt Intents and purposes for the tlmo being. lie Is not really himself, and when he sobers up ho will say: "I was drunk—I did not know what 1 was saying or doing, or if I did, there was some sort of influence upon me that I cohid not con trol.” Half of the patients in the Asylum are plied and then moved out of hearing with | laboring under some organic trouble.

The death of our loved ones Is hard to bear, and it is agony to see them suffer, but thero can be no pain so sharp as that which comes to the loving and faithful parents heart when a child goes wrong. “How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is," I quoted soft ly to myself, and then with another wistful look at Stonington, which someway seemed shorn of half Its glory, I went down to the beach to see some new - PortugP6e men of War, that the breakers had tossed upon the shore. It was pleasure to think that these creatures had no sons to turn day Into night, and sunshine Into clouds. But who knows? Their families may be exceedingly troublesome. Didlteveroccurto'my read ers how little we know of these things? To the gentlemen who read my letters, and to the wives of the men who do not, I would like to say that flannel shirts are not only fashionable for sea shore and mountain wear, but these garments are now all the rage for city use. They are certainly more economical besides looking quite as well. At home a man can wear a gauze flannel next to his skin-but let It be flannel and a handsome flannel shirt over that. White collars and cuffs are entirely abandoned by the man about town who knows what Is what. Tho costumes of the men at “The Hill" are very picturesque. There seems to bo no end to the variety in flannel suits. The rod and black stripe, with “Tam" to match, is however too sug- gestivool Mephistophlles. Hut these suite are much worn, especially oy men with dark ooraplexlons. ’ . , There r re some visitors at this beautiful summer resort who are called 'The Bucket Whop Women." They are wide awake, vivacious and good looking, and evidently know how to Invest tho mighty dollar to as good advantage as any of the shrewd brokers of the other sex. These women aro somewhat over-dressed, a trifle coarse in tone and carriage, and convey the Im pression that they have not always been accustomed to diamonds nnd pate do fois gras. It leaked out as such things usually a<>, that this feminine clique had combined their power and resources in such a way as to mako several thousand dollars apiece in a "bucket shop" speculation. To those of my readers who do not know the meaning of this term, I would say that It was bestowed upon tho brokers who do business on small margins by some mem Powell will so tell you, and If tho inflam ed organ esu be cured, the person is sane enough. But chronic insanity Is chronic disease of some special organ—the stom ach, the heart, the liver, the lungs, or some lesion of a certain brain organ. Every or gan of the body Is intimately connected with the brain. Beliglous Insanity Is the playing of tho blood, with unusual force, upon the organ of spirituality or rever ence, just as the blood plays upon the or- 8 an of combativeness in some men when runk, anu they are full of light. The blood cannot be controlled In Its flow, that and nothing more, any more than you can stop the effects of the bite of a rattlesnake. When a man Is sober himself, naturally, ho then can control Ills blood, and pump it to the mental organ desired. Your wri ter is now forcing his blood upon bis rea soning faculties und giving his Idea of the strange treuks, so-called which sometimes possess men and women. A man In a fine aud healthy physical condition is nevor given to “freaks or follies" of nny kind. It Is only your diseased persons who do such things. I have talked with men who had tholr rreaks, they said, their diseases Tlioir systems were out of order, aud as one told me, that medicine did him no good, aud that after a “spree” of about a week throwing off bile, etc., he felt like a new man, and would not touch liquor for perhaps a year, or until surlng time, the usual time for a change In Ins system. He understood his disease and knew what to do. His family understood his disease aud know what to do for him. With some men, “sprees” are once a year or twice or quarterly, according to their physical con ditton and temperament. "Man Is fearfully aud wonderfully made,” and no mistake, “and the study of mankind Is man." What we sometimes call faults, frailties and fancies, are the outward signs of a diseased nature, for which one is more to be pitied than con demned. Wo have “spasms" of religious feeling, of benevolence, of sociability, of charity and all tho virtues; and then wo hear the expression so slgntflpaut,—“the devil has got into him.” When one can account for his dreams, ho may account for many of his actions. Do not confound habits with constitutional tendencies. Habits are cultivated, just as thought is cultivated. K. M. O. THE CODE OF H0H0K, Is Used to Bottle the Difieulty Be tween Moists.
