Bern provides cle g mt quarters for her tutelary bears, which are fed at public expense. ne was playing in the water of the fountain, and licking his paw. A young cub had climbed a tree twenty feet. Another was banging on the iron door, of his cell to get out. as only a certain number are permitted to occupy the large pub lic dens af a time. Some years ago an English officer fell into their den and was torn to pieces by the brutes. Bears hug too affectionate ly. J did uot go close to them, but I bought some to carry home. It is said that lientholdus oth killed a bear on the spot where the city now stands, and said, "llere I will build, and call the city 'Baren,' or Bern." In the Cathedral Terrace a handsome bronze monument has been erected to this UEKTHOLJJ VON L0IIR1NGEN'. It consists of a life sized statue, on a marble base perhaps 15 feet high, with a bear standing up and acting as helmet-bearer. On each side of the base is a bronze relief with an inscription. It may be in- teresting to describe this, and new- to Xew Bernians. On the front is ' Berthold's coat of arms; a shield : surmounted by a crown; iu the , center a lone or griffith raging, but chained; and a sword and spear ; crossed under the shield, and pro- jeering irom tne corners Under neath is this inscription: Bertholds V Duci Laringiae Condi tori Fruis Bernae Civitas Anno MDCCCXLVII. Next comes a bas relief of the slaying ot the bear in the hunt. There are the tree, the dead bear and a dog with his mouth OH bruin's neck, the Iuke with up lifted hand, and other hunters. Then this legend from Yirgil, E Bellua ciesa sit Frbifuturae nomen. On the third side is a bronze picture of a tower, with scaffolding about it, in course of erection; an architect showing the plan to Berthold: men at work on the tower; a man with hammer at the anvil: and the Count with his shield bearer. Below we read, Disperse degentes Una sede conjungam. The fourth bas-relief shows the Duke with his armor on, aud a man beside him reading from a manu script: aud others, emblamatic figures, standing before him one with book under his arm; another, a warrior in mail, and others in plain garb. The building with tower appears also completed; and mis iceuvi aiauua ut-iun, Civitatem Iustitutam I'ortiter tueiiiini. This is a handsome testimonial to this founder of Bern. In the great cathedral also there is an elaborate Lahringer monument, on the eastern wall of the northern side aisle, in the inelegant style of the 1 7th century. It is too exten sive to be described here. The founding was iu 1101 . THE CATIIKDK.VI.. This is a beautiful church of the ! ot hie i i der, or old 11m school of architecture. It is one of the pret tiest and most interesting buildings d' the kind I have seen. It Was begun iu 1421, and was two cen tuiies in building. Its tower is still uncompleted and will be otiO feet high, ii' ever finished. There are some very peoulirr sculptures over the west portal representing the Last .Judgment: and the ten Yiigins. with one of the foolish virgins with her linger in her eye! The wood carving on the choir stalls is striking and tine. The bear lreipieiitly appears here in the devices. Its organ is one of the liiiest in Switzerland. Time tails f tell of its inarv e lu us cluck tower with performing hears: and its curious fountains, and (.tree eating children, and many ... her items of interest. One thing I in ii-r submit to our Ladles' I.ile lary Societies, and Working Circles for discussion and decision whether New Bern is an impioveineiit on her mother city, or whether she has degenerated. s i lode I h roll eh t h Wi - e-.!V ''ill N 1 aw a m .-irh biooi he stieets. ,h. s 'dillg. i.tlv Wd'h shol! 1 1 g Y I - III- ;g fair. k 1- 1,1!

B ... A least the light of truth to shine all about his declarations- lie began by an attack upon the rec ord of Mr. Cleveland, and as if to fill in time, he took up the railroad bib veto of the Governor, charging thai he had vetoed a bill reducing fares on the ele vated railroads in New York City to five cents for Ijboring men. and by that veto caut-ed the laboring men of that city t nave to pay ten oents every time tbey rode upon them. Now lets see how that tallies with what the railroad com missioned of the State of New York re ported at the time, not dreaming: that ii wouiu ever De an issue in a fresiden tial campaign. Hear the report : "The report of the majority of the commission contained the conclusion that a reduction to a five cent fare throughout the day would, at the num ber of passengers carried in 1882. 're duce the gross income o as to prevent. tne roaos trom even paying interest on their bonded debt in full. The laboring classes of New York are carried be tween the hours of 5:30 and 8:30 a. m. ana 4idu ana v :su p. m. , at live cents. upon trains which run at intervals of forty-five seconds. The reduction would not so much benefit them, there- lore, as it would the class who are bet ter able to pay ten cents than the labo rers are to pay five. Mayor Edson also said in a letter urging the Governor to interfere in the matter: "It is unreasonable, I think, to sup pose mat any road can be constructed over which passengers can be carried at any proht. from the Battery to Harlem river, for five cents at all hours of the day and night, as they are now carried by the elevated roads. "To say nothing, then, of the bad faith toward these chartered companies which this bill would confirm, to iuter terfere through such legislation in a matter so vital to the safety of so large a proportion or this community is, as I view it, a startling thing to do. " Among many letters of approval re ceived by the Governor was the follow ing from the President of Rochester University, who, not being a politician, but engaged in teaching and training young men for a life of usefulness, we copy in full: "Rochester, March 4, 1883. i "Grover Cleveland Sir: I cannot. I in justice to my convictions, refrain from expressing my gratitude fo your j veto message, which I have just read. I have no personal inteiest in any of the great corporations which were directly I or indirectly affected by the bill from I which vou have so wiselv withheld rnnr nnnrntal. But l.hfl iniar. sind atAtna. manlike positions taken in your message seems to me a most fitting rebuke to the demagogism .vhich is ready to trine with those sacred rights of property guaranteed by our state and national constitutions. In these safeguards . of property the poor man has a more vital interest than the capitalists, for they make secure the poor man's savings, which constitute his only means of sup port. I have taken occasion to com mend your message to the careful con sideration of my students as an exhibi tion of the principles which should govern their actions should they be called to fill public station in their fu ture lives. I trust you will pardon me for obtruding myself upon your atten tion. As a teacher of young men, I feel grateful to any public functionary who illustrates in his per son the lessons which I am so anxious to impress upon their minds. Again I thank you for the courageous and worthy action which you have adopted to secure sound government for our great State. "Yours very respectfully, Martin B. Anderson.' " Careful reading of the above will show the utter straits to which the Re publicans are reduced to find an issue against the Democratic candidate. Mr. Boyd went for Geo. "VVm. CurUs because he had declined to support the nominee of his own convention; and then quoted him as denouncing the Democratic party as one of no principles and very hungry and extremely thirsty, but forgot to say that Curtis was ably supporting the nominee of the same Democratic party with all its defects, declaring that lie could not support so criv)r.and utterly unfit a man as James G. Blaine, is known to be, for the posi tion of President. Other positions taken were equally untenable, and if thiB is the "big gun'" of the party, we are din posed to view with compassion these of a smaller calibre. A DEMOCRAT. Stonewall Items. Mr. Wni.
