It may not be amiss to give the intended definition, according to Webster, of a few words, that some saw ney may consider unfit to be used in that place, such as Abaddon, Apollyon, Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Belial, Davy Jones, Pluto, the Deuce, are evil spirits. Infer nal, suitable to the Spirits of Tartarus, which relates to the lower spirits (infernal, like evil spirits); stygian, the same: liar, thief, villain, scoundrel, pandemonium, are well known; the last word is the council hall of evil spirits.

We are the advocate of the workingman, and we consider that the aristo cratic thieves are indicted and put on trial, and we are the advocate, and introduce the testimony. Which is history, both ancient and modern, and government statistics, often their own make, or taken by govern ment officers; and if the records show that they lied, cheated, swintlled, swore falsely, charged exorbitant prices, robbed, stole, stole land, were criminals, male.
