Right here does not the present con dition of society call for cast or class distinctions ? It is so the world over and is a natural outcome of civiliza tion. Labor is honorable if honest. I was a politician in England but declined being one here until I bad time to study both parties and form an unbiased opinion. I have made my choice. There is no question about citizenship ; we claim it as a right, and my last papers (which have got) prove the justice of the claim. Yes, "Mc" has seen enough. The Irish judge had seen enough when he had heard one side of the case, and would hear no more for fear he would get confused. Go a little deeper into figures; give the whole truth about paupers in England. Do you know what constitutes a pauper as put in the statistics there? I think not. In densely populated countries there are combinations, strikes, &c, which cause honest la boring men to be idle and possibly reduced to ask for relief, which is granted after due investigation. It is entered on the books granted and comes under the general head of pauper relief. It is done here with the same exactness. Be just and give both sides ; the reading public needs the truth. I gave vour read ers my reasons for coming and sig nified my intention of staying. "Mc" presumes too much when he says we are not wanted, and that the English want to own the earth. She 3 increasing and replenishing the earth according to the divine com mand, and sending her best brain and muscle to forward the wheels of progress. "Mc's" opinion was not asked whether I should or should not be missed. I am no missionary, but hope to prove myself a good citizen and learn all I can and give some information in return. "Mc" is correct about 200.00Q acres of land going out of cultivation in H.ngland in seven years. It is simH ply a matter of cause and effect. The land owners extorted exhorbitajat rents;, the farmers sold but;' ;and came here or went to other countries Mr. Mills was near the mark ; we can produce and manufacture every thing as cheaply and in greater abundance here than in England; we have a vast area with resources "No, I suppose not."

It is evident that the Republicans enter the campaign with a heavy heart unlightened by even the slightest personal admira tion for their candidate. How dif ferent their state of mind from that of the Democracy, biasing with en thusiasm from one end of the coun try to another, and proud in the ugliest degree of their leader, who has displayed all the qualities of statesmanship, and who thev to a man believe is destined to lead the Democratic party to victory. The existing conditions presage the re sult in November. The addition of banker Morton to the Republican ticket can only assure Republican ism a somewhat larger supply of campaign funds. It can have no ef fect beyond this. The Republican party appears to be beaten already. --. Little Things that Annoy. Bad behavior In church. Standing around the church door.
