WBDNESDAV EVENING, NOV, 21, 1003, husks of rncre partyism, the tlve mid trne, nud Is as near rlht ns nuy An Indestructlbie Doctrine Pointing out the indlspensable use of parties In a constitutional regime, Ma caulay, In ene of the most illutnlnatlve chapters of his historical studies, defines the elements of vitality In the Whig party. Tracing the vicissitudes of that great Boclety, in the development of Rnullsh constitutionalism, he presents its varying phases from Its birth under tbe Stuart monarchs, until Its final til umphs under Lord Jehn ltusscl when Catholic emancipation and the enlarge ment of the suffrage had been added te Its moral victories. He showed hew In power, or in a minority, the Whig party Impressed Us bread principles and steady tendency te liberty upon British institu tions. ItB march forward forced the Teries te keep pace in principle, if net in creed, with the doctrines of liberalism. What the Whig party advocated as vital measures ene year, the Teries weie driven into practicing ten years later, until the Teries of ene decade differed from the Whigs of the previous years tnprplv in name. Ne mere atrlklnc lllus tratlen of this irresistible growth need be cited than the Tery " leap In the dark " of 1873, when Disraeli at the head of the Teries, te retain power, gave England a larger measure of electoral reform than the Whigs, with a great majority be hind them, had ventured, under leaders se radical as Gladstone and Bright. The histories of the two great English parties may be parallelled perfectly in this country. Democracy ha3 been the breath of this nation's life, since the adoption of the constitution. Democ racy is the only doctrine consistent with the Integrity of a republic-all parties based upon any ether doctrine must by the very conditions of their growth preve temporary just as schisms in the church may be successful for atlme and enforce passing reform. The Republican party In this country for a tlme carried the ma jority of the people, because it embodied a nuniese. Made up of the foremost thlnkera of the day and. appealing te the instinct underlying' the vital principles nt nnmncracr. human freedom, It car ried the masses irresistibly with it. But in the majestic sweep or its pristine force, it was made up of Democrats, who se seen as its purpose was achieved returned te the inherent faith of the fathers of a lepublic. In the years following the war there was hardly an eminent man, identified with the move ment resulting In emancipation, who has net at ene time or another Leen forced by the logic of his creed and teachings te rejoin the Demo cratic party. Se soeu as the war was ended, the Republican p.irtj; fell Inte the condition that history show? te be inev itable te parties made by mere passion ate pretest and personal ends. In lsW. the majority of the voters of the union were nominally Republicans. In lSfis, when the pas3ien and prejudice of the civil conflict had begun, in a nieasuie.te subside, the soeer millions of the coun try, recognizing the unsubstantial fabric of the Republican party, fell away, and in 1S70. the Democratic majority at the neils exceeded a uuarter or a million The revival lias been steady ever slnce. Republicanism as a crcsd Is no longer a force. Thinking men no longer seek te gtrln the public ear through that ergaul zfttlen. There are no longer iupii of pronounced genius identified witli the designs of the party. Its leaders are no longer men whose sayings have weight It is no longer the refuge of the young, the ardent, the magnanimous, the un selfish. The armies of young thinkers graduating from the great colleges of the country ally themselves as naturally and inevitably with the Democracy as the cadets of the English aristecra .-' with the Teries. Certainly jeung mm, glowing with patriotic fervor, instructed in the doctrines of the fathers, would hardly find congenial place among the men who have become the dominant fae ters of the party that was useful alone, when great and pure men made its prlu ciples respected. The forces of education would be ainguhuly incongruous sup porting an Arthur, a Dersey, a Robeson, a Chandler, a Legan, a Mahenc 1 And what clse is embodied in the Republican party of te day ? Admit that the Democracy has under gone temporary eclipse, in such lamenta ble aberrations as the divided counsels un specie, economic policy and paternalism admit, that sporadically the paity has under temporary hallucination dune the things it should net have done and left undone the things it should have done ; all this is but the admission that , being made up of human atoms, it lias suffered the fate of all things human, and under blind leadership and mistaken judgment fallen into this ways of Its adversaries. But its doctrines have neYer changed slnce Its (list great exponent gave them immortal utter ance The Democracy is the party that embodies the Intent and conscience of the whole people ; the Republican party is a nchism, un Adullamltu segment, representing the caste, the infidelity, the sham of the country. It is the prototype of the Optimate that Cicere led in Reme, pretending te be the holy, the high in birth, the toitunate in war, the great in peace. Take the literature et Republl- can campaigns during the last ten years. It Is as exact a reproduction or the Bhallew Belfglorlflcatien of the l'hnrl sees as the practices of the party aru expo expe nents cf that sect. It Is claimed by such of the raembera of the Republican party as still recegnlza the necessity of exeus ing its existence, that it has been a pre gresstve principle. Its progress Is of the sort a man makes who sits with his back te the locemotlvo en a railway train. It casts its eyes backward, be holds the bread landmarks laid down by the Democracy and holding Its place in the moving train by a dead head puss or Blelen ride, ekes out its existence by practising what Democracy has taught since 1783. The past of this country identified with geed government was Democratic j the present is Democratic with certain temporary shackles, but the future is unhampered la Its hands. Fer when men think the -,.. .. .1.Knnr.infl .. m .1 llti xn.-rai1fi rtf I lcaders, will net satisfy. The future is a tlme of great problems, and the Arthurs, Camerons, Legans, Mahones, Chandlers nnd huckstering myrmidons that blindly ebey these, are net equal te dealing with them. It is in the colleges, the schools, the libraries and the serene atmosphere of thought thnt the forces of Democracy recruit their ranks. These, and these alone, are capable of dealing with the momentous issues that the destinies of sixty ralllleus put upon their law makers. In the chaos of the war and the saturnalia of jobbery following It, the hordes replenished by official gain and jobbery, escaped the scrutiny of the elector. That time ha passed away. Twenty eight of the thirty-eight state of the union have returned te the teach ings of the fathers.

After this weighty statement no ene hereafter can have an excuse in selccting an uncongenial partner. It is somewhat peculiar, however, that the world lived four thousand years without mikiug this very important discovery. The telegraph brought the sad uews yesterday of the death of Gov. Fattisen's only son, an interesting child of five years. Prem all quarters of the stateand beyend its borders universal sympathy will se out te the family of tbe chief executive in their sad affliction. In the presence of the angel of death in the executive mansion, pirty bitterness will be forgotten nud party strife for the time stilled ; and pe litical friend and feo will honor their man hood by stepping aslde from the strife and turmoil of life te offer condelenco te the parents who stand in need of the tendered sympatliy in their great bereavement.

This uu-demecratic hemage paid te royalty can recelve no better illustration than in thu ejusumlng desire of the avorage young American girl te threw hcrself into the arms of the first titled feel who presents himself as a suitor for her affections. His lordship may be an imposter, or an outcast from his home ; but this thought uever enters the confiding breast of the damsel intoxicated with the Idea of his priuccly rank.

He is a haudseme, manly looking fellow, and is regarded as ene of the best eituens. Twenty yours ag.j Charles Fear was the brightest and prettiest little girl in the village school, aud his name was then Resa Fear. The child is well remembered by many citizens who knew her. Se apt a pupil wa3 she that she carried off the bulk of the prizes at the village school exami nation, and l.cr family thought of having her educated for a teacher, but famiK mis fortunes occurred t prevent this, and at I the age of 14 Resa i ear entered the home of Farmer William l BaxUr as a domes . tic. She proved te be as g,ed a girl in household duties a i in her s'.u lies, and the Baxters treated her as ene of their own family. At the age of 18 the hand of Miss Resa Fear wai sought by a farmer from Wcstfleld, but the young lady declined the offer and gave no reason for her refusal bayeud that alie ha 1 no desire te leave the home of her kind frtends. During the succeeding year it was notic ed that Resa was crewicg moreso and that her features wcte losing their feminine softness. In tjtne quite a maiculiuc np np pearauce was not-ceaule, and the girl became less sec.abla than ever. be refused te go out and no lmgcr atten led the village dances and patties at whieh she had hitherto reigned as hello One morning she was missing, mil a letter iu her bed room threw the Baxter family into a state of wildest excitement. Mrs. Bax ter was informed that tbe writer had tied forever. That she was a victim of seme unnatural phenomanen, and that a physi cal metamorphosis made it necessary for her te change her home aud raiment. They thought her mad and overy cffeit was exertcd te find MUb Fear, but te no purpose. When Miss Resa lied from the Baxter farm she went in male attire taken from the room of a physician and friend et the family, who was visltiug at the time. This was Dr. A. A Freenau, new of Erie, the preseut alderman of the First ward, iu the eity of Erie. Twe years later a huii burned young man, with a line silky mustashe uud a llewmg beard, prcseutcd himself at the Fear homestead and extond extend cd his arms te Miss Mary Fear, a yeuuger sister of the missing Resa. Miss Mary resentcd the familiarity, hut the young man bent ever her and whispred sumo thing that caused the girl te. draw back nnd regard him with amazement It was Resa Fear. " I am no longer Resa," said the young man after his explanation, " but am Charles Fear, ceme home te work the farm." The weuderlul story was village gossip (or the regulation nine, days, and then itesa Fear settled down as Charles Fear and went about the putsuitn of llfe with out obtiuslve questioning. As Charles Fear the little Resa of the village noheol lives in Ripley te day, managing the farm with hklll and industry, and possessing the cstcera of his fellow citizens. Twice has he been appointed te teach by the local school beaid, aud he has tumed out seme of the best rckelars In the village. Mr. Fear Is a mystery.

Our toaders will bear us out that for man) yeats we have striven te impress upjn farmers the licoetsity of providing for their stock at all times an nmple sup ply of water whete it does net already exist. There are vaiieus means by which thla can be accomplished, and at a cost which, w hen the alue of n constant supply of geed water is considered, is net worth n moment's serious consideration. The primitive aud least expensive method Is te dig large, deep ponds, ns we have recently stated, wtileu we have known te linve con tained n full supply of really geed water throughout the ontire year. 'Anether, next te economy, is te provide goe.l conductors upon the dwelling nnd all the outbuild ings for emptying the lainwater into a cistern at house mid barn, which would be sulUcieut for the stock at all times, The next is, where it Is expedient, te put down rams. By being properly coveied they never frecze, aud uovei uoase in their operations if t host i cam holds geed, nud the ram is kept in order, te de which, in sub stitutiugnew alvcs, would net cist ever a dollar a year. The last aud most oxpon expon oxpen slo Is the digglug of a well, whero thore is no opeu sp'ing or tunning watei, nnd the erection of a wind power machine, and we bMieve this has holdem disappointed auy ene. There are several different in ventiens and we loam they are all elucleut, though seme may be hotter than ethers. Notwithstanding all these contrivances are at the command of farmers, we think that we are scarcely mistaken iu our estimate that at least one-half of the farms of the country are unprevided with an nmple supply of geed water at nil times for the use of the bteck upeu thorn.

Our farmers, who are still iu need of auy of theso arrangements for securing water at all times for th stock, should seriously consider the expediency of introducing ene of them. NOVEMBER C0UKT.
