Notes of Early History—lly u Lady.
Alfred the Great.
Alfred the Great laid the foundation
of the British Monarchy when he as
cended the Throne of England A. D.
871. The Saxon nation had aunk into
the grossest ignorance and barbarians
by continual invasion of the Danes, who
wpro an ignorant, superstitious race,
they hated Christianity and were hos
tile to all religious establishments.
Eight vear* after his coronation he
found himself unable to repel their nu
merous and atrengthened incursions, his
forces were discouraged and broken up,
his chieftains and nobles sought safely
in flight and he reduced to the last ex
treme of destitution, was obliged to fol
low their example. He assumed the
dre*s of a peasant and found shelter in
the hut of a herdsman far off among the
most inaccessible mountain region.
Here he attended the cows and once,
when he was sitting before the Are, the
wife of the peasant told him to watch
the cakes that were baking; hi* mind
wandering away from Ibis menial em
ployment. everything pertaining to hi*
surrnuudings in forgotten and the
cakes burned. The woman scolded him
for bis carelessness sod reminded bim
that he could do hia share of eating
them.
Previous to his concealment he found
mea.ures for gathering together a lew
trusty friends, who whenever an oppor
tunity offered Imrrassed the enemy.
Their success in this undertaking en
couraged many more to join their band
and when their forces were large enough
they plsced their king at its head and
his presence animated and encouraged
the scattered army. Again they met in
•baltlearray.' In oneof these skirmishes
the Sixons captured the sacred banner
of the Dines, who believing the tide ol
fortune had turned agaisnt them, fled
in dismay. King Alfred's forces were
successful in the battle* that followed
and instead of the utter extirpation ol
the enemy, he expelled the armed for
ces, hut extended the hand of friend
ship to the Danes, with permission to
settle among hi* people, on condition of
their being governed by his lsws and
embracing Christianity. This generosity
and kind treatment won for him the
nobleness of character and associated
with bia memory.
He was but twenty-two years of age
when be was called to the throne, his
whole reign was disturbed by constant
invasions; he fought fifty-six battles,
but bis wars were altogether on the de
fensive. There is no act of barbarity or
inhumanity recorded against him. He
did much to restore the wasted country
be governed and encouraged learning
and art. His ingenuity first gave us the
idea of lanterns. At that time watches
and clocks were unheard of and time
was computed by lighted candles, to
protect these from the rough wind,
they were surrounded by piece* of
aemitransparent horn. He founded
the University of Oxford and formed a
system of jurisprudence which'is sup
posed to l>e the foundation of English
common law. He established a navy,
which was the commencement of that
marine power, whose sails whiten the
waters of every kingdom on the globe.
He was truly Great and of all English
Kings, the best snd most faultless, he
died in the fifty second year of his sge
and left a record that stands out clear in
the dim light of history—blameless and
above reproach. M. A. J.

In Utt week's issue of the Dkmocsat
you referred to the doings of onr town
council, which is a matter ol very great
interest to our tax payers in the bor
ough of B-llefonle. Good municipal
government is preferable to party sue
cess. What is true of muoici|>al govern-
ments is also true of state snd national
government*. The true road to reform
1s to commences reformation nt the be
ginning. It has been the policy of the
best men of our parly to conduct their
official duties in accordance with true
reform principles, with those who make
reform a secondary matter, it is ipiiie
different—parly ascendency is pars
mount with them ; forgetting Imwevi-r,
that fidelity to trust is a cardinal prin
ciple with the Democratic party. A
case in point is in the person of Robert
M' Knightjpresidenl of our town council.
Mr. M>-Knight was a man of economical
and frugal habits, who enjoyed the con
fidence of his neighbors—Was a pro
nounced reformer. Last year his Detn
erratic neighbors nominated him a can
didale for town council in the north
ward. His republican neighbors con
iributed votes enough to elect lilm.
Robert appreciated the compliment and
soon became a man of enlarged ideas
tie was the pivot upon which the politi
cal complexion ol the council would
soon revolve—but 1 am a reformer said
Robert elected by the aid of republican
reformers and I roust drop politics for
politics and reform don't mix very well.
Robert was not very long however in
allowiug his political teachings to get
the better of his reform ideas. It was
essential to party success to aid a Dem
ocratic henchman out of the mire. A
[ self constituted boss brought Itia influ
ence to bear and pictured to the mod
dern reformer that it would bo much
more honorable to him to be president
of tho council, than to take a forward
step in the heresy of reform. This idea
tickled hi* fancy and was soothing to
his feelings, he little thought that lion
ors would be showered upon hitn so
thick and fast. He consented to t e tin
boss nun and a promotion of the bench
man followed the dicker, thus reducing
himself to the level of a snd loi tie
ciple and a rooster in politics whose
management of our borough affairs lis
brought Oiliuin and censure upon the
democratic party of our town. Tne
profligate expenditure of money is the
best evidence of incompetence in the
council and should be a warning to a,!
voters, not to select men to perform
public trusts, who are incompetent to
liscbarge ordinary business transactions
with fidelity. The great indebtedness
of our liorough, the assessment and -lis
bursement of the large amount of tax
•-s annually, requires the best business
interest of our town in the council and
I trust the lesson ol last year will not
go unheeded at the ensuing election.
It is said that some men cannot stand
promotion. I think the head and tail
of our council area living exsmpleof tin
assertion. How would it >c if we were
to chop off the head and tail on Tues
day the 20ih inst., and see if any good
will come out of the carcass— "what
man has done man may do" in the in
terest of iUroBH.
Condition of New England laborers.

Committee on Education and Labor re
sumed ila inquiries this morning and ex
amined Frank K. Foster, ol Cambridge.
Mass., Secretary of ihe Ma*s*chu*etis
Federation of Trade and lnhor Union*
The Witness made a general statement
a* to thu conditions ol the lattoring
classes of New England in general and
of Massachusetts in particular. The
mill operatives of New England as a
class are p-erhaps the worst off, and
their preeent condition is sure lo pro
duce an enfeebled race of men and wo
men in the next generation, at the same
conditions have already done in Kng
land. The working pieopdeof M->*aciui
setts are better off than those of the oi R.
er New England States, on account of
the enforcement of the ten hour law.
The hours of work in M**cbuctt are
sixty per week, while in the weaving
district of England they are but fifty ix.
The wages are about the same. Since
1878 the average of wage* has increased
6 9-10 per cent., while the average cost
of the necessities of life, including
meats, breadstuffs,vegetables,dry gnnd
boots, board, etc., has increased 21 2 10
percent. The examination of Mr. Fos
ier will be continued to morrow.•

One hundred and forly students now

success since its establishment and in
order to ascertain the cause of failure,
and also to investigate certain alleged
abuses, the Legislature two years ago
apipiointed a special committee to ex
