The question is, have those who perused the book given a thought to the prevailing characteristics of It? We doubt it they lave, and think It therefore quite possible that they w ill lie surprised w hen vc ex press the opinion that the tone ol the story ts the reverse of healthful or satisfactory. We have in "Helen's Rabies" the descrip tion of two children whne od.l tricks, old sayings, and mischievous (icings, nearly drove distracted a bachelor uncle who is lift in charge of them. Examination will Show that the most piquant bits of the story are the incidents in which one or the other of the childreb has committed some outrages piece of mi-c!iief. for which no punishment is ever awarded. The baeheloa uncle i-i always incite 1 by some "angelic" look or attitude on the pirtof the two 'imps," and the general result is that they invariably get free after behaving like little devil by looking like little an gels. We should be sorry to think that the true enie ol this book's popularity lie? in this sentimental ibaiidouuient of all disci pline, but, uufortuurately, we are too well aware that the picture drawn ot '"Toddle" mid "Budge" find its counterpart in myr iad of Amrriean homes to day. Yet as suredly a kind ol literature which, if it have any purpose, teaches the uelessness of attempting to train children, or master their selfi-di tendencies, or to do anything with them but to submit to their most outrageous caprices, and derive senti mental satistactioii from th-ir "angelic" expression of countenance when thev are asleep, is not, strictly speaking, a whole some kind, and i not calculated to dimin- ! i?h that prevalent disKitioii to spoil chil dren which is one ol the worst fault of the present generations of parents. We are afraid that Herbert Spencer is answerable iora great deal of mischief In Ibis connec tion, for in his work on "Social Statics" he tias laid down views regarding tlie"rights" of children (including, we suppose.babies In arms) which, however logically s.und they may be. are practically nothing else than pernicious prepoteron, and false. Xn dou t lie intended them for the study, and had no expectation that tliey would be applied in the nursery; but be did not foresee the tremendously philosophic transatlantic public for whom he was writing, and the eonse pieties is that in the endeavor t bring ap their childreu in ac cordance with the evolutionary hypothesis a great many well meaning lathers and mothers are ruining them tor life, and un consciously training tlwrn for male and female hoodlums. In households where the children gvern the parents there Is very little probability that the former will develop Into moden. unsflfi-h, consider ate, respectful, patient, anil self-respecting persons. Being encouraged in the indn' genee of those purely animal app'-'ifus which nature implants blindly and indis criminately, in the young noble as in the young savage, for purposes of self-protection, but which it is the part of civilized parents to suppress and eliminate, they itever learn that celt-restraint, that thnughtfolness fur others, which is the basis of all culture, and though they may ueved In alter life tbf-y will do so by brute force, and will nr, ly not grow into good material tor hu-dMii'ls aud fathers. There is no doubt some fun in "Helen's Babies." but inasmuch a It apotbeoizes a grave national vice, we leel it necessary to protest against its dominant tone.

The Gazette of tliat place speaks of a union of Xorth and South Methodist as follows : A protracted meeting had been in prog, res in the College Chaii. under the aus pices of the M. E.

AS D THE PKO ILK KEJUU'K. The shadow that has been passing over our political horizon, which Democrats predicted would deepen into a night of disaster and ruin, has passed quietly away, and the sun of peaco has arisen with hope and happiness in all its beams. We rejoice with the people over the down full ot the stronghold and citadel of the "Rons" Tweed liemoeraey. Long will tho people of America remember the Presidential struggle of the Centennial year. It has already gone-into history that after Governor Hayes was fairly elected President of the United Stater, Democrats used millions of dollars with which to reverse the verdict of tho people, and when that, together with threats of war and assassination, all failed, they then, as a crowning act ot their,, infamy, attempted to delay the count, thereby hoping to have another steal at tho ballot box. Rut the indignation of the masses having beeome aroused, the 'thinking por tion of the IXMiiocrats in Congress deemed it advisable to abandon their villainous conspiracy ni;d if possible lead the people to believe 11. it tiny magnanimously aided in the election ot Hayes. Democrats have now learned that the two great objects tbey always have in view, grand and petit larceny, will not elect a President, the will ol" the people cannot so easily be laid a-dde by means of corruption, bribery, murder and threats of war aud attempts at assassination. Xo greater calamity could have befallen the people of the United States than to have had S'unucl J. Tilden forced upon them for their President. We now have a man tor President, in whom the people have the utmost confidence, and instead of bloodshed, debauchery and crime iu the South as would have been In the event that Tilden bad been elected we can ex pect that the laws will be enforced and all citizens receive protection under our laws. The base corruption and bribery proven iu Oregon should be sufficient to consign the Democratic party to a political grave from which there should be no resurrec tion. MUMFIl'AVr. We take the following from the Xew Northwest of February 2S. 1S77 : "The Democratic plan to muzzle the Oregonian by employing the law firm of which its ed itor is senior partiier to defend the Gov ernor in the issuance of the certificajj to Cronin succeeded admirably. "That inde pendent" journal was completely silenced by the lee paid the firm of Hill, Thomp son & Durham, and, although It has bad occasional spasmodic attacks ot virtue, it has in the main seduously refrained from saying anything that might not be con strued either way. Imagine this pink of "reform," this champion of independence and fairness, writing grandiloquent dis quisitions oo fraud and eorroptiou by day, and haggling by night in secret conclave with Democratic officials and committee men as to whether tho price should be $ 4,000 or $5,000 for helping to bolster up a contemplated fraud, and muzzle the paper which made loud profession of readiness to expose the same. We opine that the redoubtedly Patrick himself, with the conscientious (?) Governor and innocent;?) Senator for counselors, could scarcely con coct a scheme too contemptible and disre putable for this man to engage in for mo ney. The protest a capita! cross between a whine and snivel with which he greet ed the translation of the "Gabble" dis patch was met by nothing more flattering to his vanity than a derisive laugh, and it wa3 too flimsy even to merit that. 1 11- tered through a golden muzzle, it was nev- tbeless extremely weak. As the Democratic ship, commanded by Capt. "Scotch Miller," starts off for Salt river on Monday next. Col. Cann ex pected to open the services by singing- book in hand "We re pawing away," ete. Several Democrats Inquire why our Hayes and Wheeler flag Is floating? We answer, because good government is assur ed to everybody lor at least four years to come. All nations, kindred and tongues are to be blessed in the election ot Hayes aud Wheeler. Gen.

The editor of the ban Jose Pioneer is affected with some disease, the symptoms indicating "softening of the brain." Prof. Haas has made some new esti mates on our longitude which will appear soon. Gen. Brown is not declaring war ove the failure of Tikltn. He behaves him self like a good citizen, but still insists that be has been "intimidated." Oregon mining interests are "look in up." The various companies J re showing rich returns iron assays, and refuse to sell stock at prices quoted. Democrats reading, or listening to somt body else read, are flocking in to see Prof. Bean. They see no show for postofllcef lot- four years to come and are seek'ui now 1 1 on a teachers. OUR H&YES & WHEELER STILL WAY UP." While we do not rejoice over n fallen foe, we cannot but jollify when so great a good is offered our American people as the assurance ot (our years more of gold government. See dispatches. THE HAI. -! Haw II Was ltonc. At -1 o'clock A. . the hall was prepared for final action of the Senate, and as soon as that body entered at 4:03 a. St., and all the members were seated, tiie action of the respective Homes on the Wisconsin question was read, and the ten votes ot Wisconsin were announced for Hayes and Wheeler. Tho presiding officer said this concludes the count ot tho 3S States of the Union. The tellers will now ascertain and deliver the result ot the votes to the pre siding olliccr. Senator Allison of the tellers having delivered the statement, the pre siding officer expressed a hone that on the announcement nothing would mar the dignity of the proceedings so reputable to the American peoplo, and so worthy of the respect of the world. He then said the whole number of Electors appointed to vote tor President aud Vice President of the United States was 330, of which a ma joritvls 18.3.

Few who read of the Bank of England have any idea of the vastuess of the oper ations of this greatest ot the financial in stitutions of the world. London is a sort of clearing house for all civilized nations, aud around the Bank of England the com mercial world may be said to revolve The greatest amount of deposits in the whole of the New York banks has rarely if ever exceeded $250,000,000; those In this cue London bank reached more than half that sum, or $150,000,000. The Kew York Banks' loans have varied sometimes 15,000,000 or $10,000,000 a week: in on week last May dining a panic the loans by the Bank of England rose over $50,000,000, and reached $155,000,000, or more than half tlie highest sum ever reached by the fittv-niiie associated banks of ew York The greatness ol the deposits Is remark able, especially as a bank pays no Interest on them aud H surrounded by institutions that do. Not another less remarkable fact is that nearly forty per cent, of thesi deposits at one time nearly $;jO,000, 000 was placed in the bank by private bankers, despite the lack or In terest. All these things show what is the function or this vast establishment seen rity. So desirable is safety that the own ers of $150,000,000 prefer to keep it in the bank's vaults without interest, rather than trust It elsewhere. The other function the bank has undertaken, to control the mo ney-market, it has tailed to achieve ; but the safety it gives to funds has doubtless contributed much to lewer the rate of In terest in London. Great care and pains are taken to secure this safety. Every night twenty-five soldiers of the regular army are detailed to guard the bank ; and for directors and managers men of the highest character are selected. The move went ol Its deposits Is watched with t: gerness, and it tas even been said that whenever they fall b.'low $120,000,000 money is pretty sure to be scarce. LET r 'JOILirT." Of coiuse would not be In good taste to jollify in a way that would savor of trampling on a fallen foe, but let us rejoice as a nation that tlie great party f pro gress continues to handle the reins of government, aud safety is secure! te tl: Ship of State. a correspoiiueut ot a Portland paper Inquires what a central committee has to do with people rejoicing. We give it up. Possibly said committee can explain. TO THE KEMTE.

If, on the 8th of November, the law rm, who runs the Oregonian, floated the America flag to tho breeze and declared rililen elected, It was because they desired to boon tho winning side. After having ono all In their power to have Cronlu's vote counted, thereby electing Tilden, they coijid-flot, consistently, do otherwise than exault over his supposed election, on le day above referred to.

If It is true that tlie Oregonian niul law firm have determined to work in the in terests ot the Democratic party, and tor a blind, pretend to be Republicans, then every Republican In the State should know it. Only afew weeks since the Biuret, rim by the said law firm, made the startling an nouncement that it would ! a Republican paper, and within a few days, turned around and slapped our Senator on the back and committed other cowardly out rages agpiust tho party which should be piml-ht-d by nil good Republicans witli drawiug their support from it. lims viitr 11 Alio.

EutTOit Statesman: Tho morning or the 17th had been fixed upon as the time to start to Canyon City from Baker, about one bundled miles distant, and to which place Orler & Kellogg run a tri-weekly line of "buck hoards" (two seated and real comfortable) by which passengers and mall are put through In two days' time, ami in good shape.
