They possibly had their inception at the time of the crusades, which had for their object the redemption of the tomb of our Savior from the hands of the infidel Moslem. The people of America are the direct descendants of the people of,Eur0pe, and while they struck out Ih'tt'new theory of gbyernment they yet retained matty of. the--habits, customs; and impulses of the people of the old countries.

The revolutions, of time will not stop its growth, nor can exterior forces retard its progress.

He, himself, claimed that he had bureau drawers in his brain, one of which con tained all he "knew of one kind of knowledge, and others, all he knew of other blatters, and so arranged that he coplA open and shot them at pleasure. !
