In tact, the Boston town council for long years seems to have been possessed with a fury, of sale or destruction. In 1837 It sold for £000 Its ancient civil silver plate. Recently it has risen once more to the occasion and has had the parlor, rich in the Seventeenth century pltchpine paneling with noble fireplace and overmantel, all thickly painted in a sealing-wax or postoffice red. It Is remarkahle indeed that the very fine and curious Henry VIII period linenfold paneled doors of what was once the municipal strong-room and repository of documents have been allowed to remain fa their olden condition. and ;'f try valuable Puritans could have framed that document of political freedom. One fundamental difference between the Purltans and the Pilgrims was their attitude toward the church of England, wyie the Puritan did not agree with all the forms and rituals of the established church, he steadfastly refused to leave It. His attitude was that the church could be reformed more-quickly from within than from without. Even that sturdy old master Puritan. John \VInthrop, on the eve of sailing for America, is- . Assuredly these Bostonlans are net sentimental - <«ued the Yarmouth declaration, swearing his last- Ists; and where such ancient buildings as remain Ing allegiance to the "dear mother church." The Pilgrim, on the other hand, first separated himself from the established church and then, rather than v worship contrary to his conscience, was compelled to leave his native land. The term "Separatists," which was so contemptuously applied to the Pilgrims, was literally true. It Is also true that his first thoughts of democracy grew out of this church dissension. While still livlug in England, the Pilgrims gave expression to the broad principle that the people did not require a bishop of the established church to select their preacher, but, on the other hand, they were perfectly capable of choosing their own. This doctrine so startled King James I that he exclaimed, "No bishop would soon mean no king!" Not only did the 1'ilgrims and Puritans differ In the fundamentals of church, but in matters of state as well; for the Pilgrims held that church and state should be separated. Any respectable man in Plymouth could be a free man and vote whether he was a member of the congregation or not. Capt. Miles Standish, one of the most prominent men of the colony, was never a member of the church. The Puritans of Salem and Boston, a however, vigorously held that only members of the church had the rights of freemen and the powremeaaber the black wharves and thesbtps,^ '^ier to vote, In their minds the church and state "And the sea-tides tossing free; Were one. The result was that the Pigrlms had ' * . *)»nd the Spanish sailors with bearded lips, Hpi liberal form of government, while the Puritans -^*And the beauty and mystery of the ships, developed a theocracy sternly despotic." \ - i"And the magic of the sea."

While Salem and Boston were sots forth the difference between them clearly in. hanging witches, Plymouth would have none of It. his Introduction to "The Founding of a Nation", The Pilgrims were a simple country folk. Gov (Doran): The colonists of the. Mayflower, were BngliahnHg ' are allowed to exist it is mostly because they can be put to commercial use. The most interesting old warehouses left in the town are, for example, those which face a confectionery factory lu Spain' lane, and are used by it. Spain 'lane Is an exceedingly picturesque nook. It takes its natnef from the old merchant family of De Spayne. These surviving old atone buildings are perhaps som| of those which onc<pbelonged to various abbeys In Lincolnshire. A row of projecting stone bosses perhaps indicate the means by which the goods ware raised' or lowered to or from the upper floors. The very Irregularly shaped Market placfe In Spite of Its containing no buildings of any not* Is remarkably suggestive of the central "place" of some foreign towns. This Is due not merely to its wide area, but largely to the Imposing sight of "Boston stump," which is as well viewed from this standpoint as from any other, and looks not a little un-English with its lantern stage like a corona, delicately supported by flying buttresses at the angles. A not unprofitable time may bo spent along the riverside, whose ancient buildlnpi and old-world savor Inevitably recall Longfellow's Pernor Bradford, the one great authority of these people, says of them: "They were not acquuinted of the period of 1008, while the Puritans of Massachusetts bay colony (Salem and Boston) wets Englishmen of the period of 1628. The name "Pilgrims* was given to the Plymouth colonists by Gov. William Bradford, who was a passenger on the Mayflower. The name "Puritans" was applied to reformers of all classes In England la the early part of the Seventeenth century by the supporters of the court and king. When tlb ..Pilgrims fled from England to Hfll- ISjfUl in 16|gtStuart dynasty had not fully developed Its despotic theory of the divine right of kings. The commoners at this period were still loyal. The Pilgrims themselves attributed their persecutions to the bishops of the established church and not to the king. But fn 1628 Kings J^mes I and Charles I bad denied many of the ancient rights of the English parliament and people; and disloyalty was rife throughout the natl<g|. It is evident, therefore, that the men of theseperiods were not impelled by the same motives. The Pilgrims came to America to enjoy religions freedom. The Puritans fame to America to enjoy political as well aa religious freedom. Considering' the conduct of the two colonies in after years toward the mother country, it is reasonable to HS- •ume that at no time during the life of the Plymouth colony could the Pilgrims have written the Declaration of Independence. 0» the other hand, at almost any tine between 1SSS and 1776 the with trades nor traffic, but had been used to a plain country life and the Innocent trade of husbandry.'* For 12 long years they had labored together In Holland. Without means to carry forward their exodus Into the American wilderness, they turned to a company of London merchants for aid. Their only collateral was the pledge of the labor of their hands for seven years In the forests. After many grievous disappointments they sailed on one ship. Most of them were without arms, and their poverty was so pressing they did not even have extra leather soles for their shoes. Yet it fell to the lot of these men, who lived in log huts and fed upon the bread of own, to found a nation. On the other hand, the Puritans Included many of the gentry. Some even were personages of wealth and influence. When Gov. John Winthrop and his Puritan associates sailed for Massachusetts bay from Yarmouth, April, 1630, there were ten vessels In the fleet. Ample food was abroad. There were numerous shep, swine, cattle and horses. Everything had been provided 10 make the colonists comfortable and contested In the new country. If John Josselyn, who waj.in the colony In 1635, is to be believed, the total value of the cargoes of this Puritan fleet wus upward of one million dollars--Immeasurable wealth compared wUh, t voyagers ^ of the Mayflower.^ < v , 1.*'- * "-""'U' - T/ 'it. • I, i.iii in THE FIRST OCEAN CABLE £ i Wfeea ft was first proposed to lay $t'(l cable from Dover to Calais It wss Renounced as a "mad freak," a "glgan- , tic swindle."
