It will always serve to remind the country that the democratic party steadily resisted the admission of the territory of that name into the union for the sole reason that a majority of her people insisted upon Toting the republichn ticket. A leading Mexican journal complaint that within four years the United States has been represented in that country by four different ministers and one tempo rary supply. A new plan will soon be adopted, however. Qeii. Harrison will supersede the present democratic incum bent with a first-cles republican, whose merits will suffice t? keep him iu an office through at least one administration. The mention of Foraker from time to time for a cabinet position stirs up our democratic friends for their sub-cellarage, and is evidently the crudest punishment that Den could impose upon them. And jet it would be difficult for the average democrat to tell us what is the matter with Foraker. They have a glimmering conception that perhaps Mr. Foraker sat ou them some time in the dim past. Dut he could hardly help it. Lincoln Jour nal. in different individuals to some extent, A oilious man is seldom a breakfast eater.

The attempt to justify the systematic suppression of the colored vote of the south on the ground that such a process is the only way to prevent negro rule will not bear the test of sober and candid ex amination. It is a well known fact that the colored people have never manifested any disposition to rule the whites. They are not so constituted that they care to exalt their race over the other in any re epect. It is to their credit that they rec ognize their pathetic limitations of intel ligence and experience, and arc inclined to defer to the superior wisdom of the whites. Their conduct,' as a people, ever since the war has tendered to "show that they neither seek nor desire to dic tate to their white fellow citiz. ns in poli tics or otherwise. They do not ask, and never have asked, that their race shall monopolize the offices, or frame the laws, or regulate the methods of progress. It is a libel to assert that they cherish a re lentless prejudice against their former owners, and are constantly watching for chances to despoil and humiliate them. Their record is remarkably free from all indications of such a spirit. They have sought always to live in peaceful and considerate relations with those who have persistantly refused to grant them that privilege. Where they have been allowed to vote they have not insisted up n draw ing the color line, but have as readily supported white men as black men. There is nothing to be gained by mis- co representing the facts. The danger of "V. negro rule is more a pretext for injustice oi'an an honest reason for a sound snd trouV,,y.y policy. If the negroes were .".?titi fd to voted frcelr. thev would be guided largely by the advice and exam ple of their white friends and neighbors. T.iev are not an aggressive or domineer ing race. It is their nature to follow rather than to lead. They respond promptly to influences of kindness and periunsiou.

A writer in Tha 1 hl'iuklpliia North American donerilies 01:0 runrrL:ge custom among the Pcn-jans whk-h would hardly meet with favor in UiLs country. A I'et- eiaii couplo may enter into honorable matrimony for j;ny ppocified timo a day, a week, a month, nix months or longer. A priest and a, written contract aro re- 3uired, as in the usual form, and a owry and present bestowed. Whether the transaction 13 entered upon for a mat ter of days or years, at its termination each one goes their way freo of all further obligations toward each other. Thi3 form of marriage is indulged in largely by travelers and men whoso voca tions take them from place to place. A mixed party of travelers men, women and children arrive at a village. Tho susceptible heart of one of the gentlemen is touched by the charms of some rustic bello. Ihe villago priest is summoned forthwith, and the young lady's father invited to the caravansarai. "I wish to be united in matrimony to your honored daughter, the light of Mo hammed, oh, my lather," says the smit ten traveler, "lnsnallah." "Ilismillah!" returns the parent, "for now long.- "For throe weeks, oh, mv father." sava tho traveler, "and I will make the settle ment ten tomans live tomana down and Hve upon our return from Meshed, tho holy, three weeks hence, when your daughter shall be returned, thrice blessed from having made with us a pilgrimage to inman Kizas sanctuary. "What! ten tomans pooh, pooh!" 6creams tho father derisively, and mak ing little of tho advantages of the pil grimage to Meshed. "My daughter is a jewel and the lielle of the village. The settlement must be 100 tomans cash down." The prospective bridegroom and the lather of the young lady in tho case now argue and Bquabble for. probably an hour, at the end of which time they compromise on thirty tomans and three- quarters, the priest draws up a mar riago contract then and there, which the grocm and the bride s parents sign. In it is stated the exact terms of the mar riage, the amount of the settlement, and the time tho contract is to expire. The rrin.".t is fed. the settlement monev naid over to the father, and the blushing bride, who has had nothing to say in the matter whatever, is handed over to her husband, falio is mounted on an ass or bundled into a kejaveh and ac companies the party to Meshed. Thrre weeks later the travelers halt at the same village pn their return. The bride of three weeks slides off her donkey kisies her husband's hands and returns to her parents' roof- SI13 is now q charming young widow, and possesses thirty tomans and three-cmarters, besides an extra toman or two presented by her husband at parting if he lias been pleased with her conduct as a spouse. With this enug sum, and the additional charms of her liew condition, she of course very soon makes mincemeat of seme worthy young peasant's heart and settles down tor bio. It jiornwtiines happens, how ever, that the young bride fakta advan tage or the temporary marriage to steal away her husband's heart, and then at the old home a new marriage contract is dravu up and she becomes his lifelong helpme'etl A Woman on Kissinsr. It hr.s been tho gallant habit of men, from timo untjiemorial, to comment un favorably on the habit which women liavo of indulging in the useless distribu tion of kisses among themselves, but it is not often that the animadversion t tho erring sex itself is visited on the sa:.- theme. A critical young lady, however, was recently heard expat kit inr: vigor ously against this senseless eiu,icij. "Do. for goodness sake," she remarked, "rr; someiliing about tlio silly way thai women have of kissing each other every time they get together. 11 twentv women were to pieet in the street every last one of them would have to kiss the other nineteen, and there would be 'Jet me see 3S0 kisses worse than thrown awav. for probably in ten minutes the whole party would separate into squads and go ell talking about eacn other. v hen you see one of these very violent miscellane ous kiss-everytliing-within-Eight kind of woman, it Is sale to set per down as a fraud, which she generally is.

Then the talk ran off pn other kinds of kissing, and a 6tory was told of a young lady who kissed a baby held in its father's arms; then m a moment of temporary insanity or abstraction she stood on tip- too and kissed tho papa, Keahzmg in stantly what a dreadful thing 6he had done, she wheeled around and kissed the baby 3 mamma, who was standing near, and retired in good order.

They are fre quently t ainted, but they aro triumphs of nature over art for all that, am 1 could well auord to discard tho . rouge pots.
