Our Sabbath School.

Ono OF the best evidences of the moral ten.
denoy Of n community is tho condition of their
religious institutions and tho interest they take
in giving their children the benefit of Sabbath
schools and Bible classes. Religion ia tho wise
and sure basis upon which Is reared the beau
tiful fabric of moral excellence. "Thc fenr of
the Lord Is tho beginning of WISDOM" and It's
sacred teachings often gain their first interest
in the breast of childhood from tho Sabbath
school. How necessary, then, that such i'm
portant places Of instruction should he sup
piled with patient, pious and faithful teachers.
IL is truly n labor of love to instil into the
mind of n young child those holy principles
OF Performance, bcncvolcncc and charity, which
give tho highest impress to the human charac-
ter, and render easy those deeds of kindness
and sympathy that cast n glow of sunny ra-
dance over tho darkest life pictures. Wo of.
ten think of this on these bright summer Sab
bath mornings, when we sec groups of neatly
dressed and happy looking children vending
their way through our quiet streets to their
Sunday school, Mt the sound of "thc church.
going bell" II is n sight to soothe the heart
OF weary, toil.worn man, aud wo sincerely
hope that the teachers of our ably and pious-
ly conducted Sabbath school may be "blcssed
in their deed" and in tho piety and prosperity
OF their scholars reap n rich reward.

tYy" Lieut.. Bartlett, of tho U. S. Navy, Is
now in Paris, experimenting tho purchase Of
two or three of tho Frosncl lights, the aavuii-
tagcs of which arc thus pointed out IN n lato
letter from w. G. Bryant, Esq, Of the New
York Evening Post:
The invention Of Frcsnel is one Of tho most
beautiful examples we have of that skill by
which the apparently barren phenomena or
science arc forced into the service of man.
Light, you know, radiates in all directions.
Place a lamp in n tower on q sca.coast, and
part OF its rays arc wasted on the clouds above
II, part on the earth below, and part stream to
tho right and left, where they arc not wanted.
Ivy u most ingenious arrangement Of prisms,
Fresncl collected these useless rays and sent
them forward in a horizontal direction, parni.
lcl with the surface Of the ocean, wherc thoy
must meet tho eye of the mariner. An in
tense light, by this concentration Of its beams,
is obtained from a single lamp. l desired To-
see an example Of the effect produced, and a
lamp was placed within one of Fresnei's cir
cles Of prisms, while l stood at o distance of
twenty feet or more. 1t biazed into my eyes
like tho rising sun, andI could not bear to look
Mt 1t.
Tho great advantage OF Frcsnel's apparatus
lies in tho strength of the light which Il throws
IN the direction where it is wanted; but II has
TWO other important recommendations: It's
economy and tho ease with which IL IL kept in
order. With a single lamp it does what In tho
old method required thirty, and it dispenscs al.
together with tho clumsy contrivanco Of re-
Electors, which arc constantly becoming tar
nished and wearing out. The supply Of oil
which ia needed is, OF course, comparatively
trifing.
These lights have boon adopted by tho Eng.
lish Government in many instances.

Tn WAR QuEsrioS.-wc refer our readers
to the following article from the New Orleans
Delta, in regard to the Mccills dispute, rs
cmbodying our opinion with respect to the
samc:
We entertain no anticipations of a war with
Mexico, in consequence of the present Mccil-
Ia difficulty. The disputed territory belongs
10 this country, and this country will obtain
it. The line from FL Paso to the ella, at the
intersection of the San Pedro, il evidently the
line contemplated by the treaty between us
and Mexico, and II will be acknowledged rs
the true one. Santa Anna is not insane
though he Is vindictiyc. lie hates us, but
he knows our power. He would wage war
against us If he could, but he feels his Wi
weakness, and would cedc territory twice the
value of even the yinc-growing Mecilla val
Icy, before hc would plunge his wretchcd
country into another war, which would end
in its total dissolution. Mexico il weak and
distracted; weaker than ever. The United
States arc consolidated, and stronger than Mt
siy period Of their past history. A war be-
tween tho countries would be a mere walk
over for us; q piece Of display which ends
in nm easy victory; n pop-gun affair, which
would scarcely deserve tho designation of mn
international struggle. No one understands
this fact better than Santa Anna, let him
buster as nc may. Buster is an element in
Mexican politics, ms Buncomb is in ours, and
TO he popular he must use II; but it is NIB
surd to Judge Of his real intentions by his
written words, rs they arc as far removed
from each other as Maine from California.
II any confirmation was needed of this fact,
the late statement Of Almontez, the Spanish
Minister, that his country would not go to
war, which we believe to DO authentic, is
sufficiently conclusive on this point.
