RUSSIAN CLERGYMEN.-The lower orders Of
the Russian clergy must be rather hard set,
if all accounts be true, and have much need of
the spiritual advisings of Father Matthew.
The Pays tells story of Russian traveller
who, while passing through a village, saw 3
crowd of peasants rolling a reverend gentleman
into barn, and barring the doors after him.
On inquiring the cause, one of them said "Oh!
it's only the priest whom we are locking up in
the stable" "And why do you serve him in
that way ?" "Because it is Saturday. "And
why on this particular day?' because he is
a drunkard, and we always lock him up on a
Saturday, in order that he may be able to per-
form divine service on Sunday On Monday he
can begin his spree again, and keep it through
the week ?" Fair drinking men are the Rus
sian priests

THE FoUNDRY.--There is an immense amount
Of repairing and finishing going on at the foundry
at this time. Mr.. ellis, one of the proprietors,
informs us that never, at any previous period,
the present Ii is with the utmost difficulty
that he is enabled to keep up with the demand,
without adding largely to his present force Of
operatives. We are truly pleased to note the
increasing prosperity Of the Thibodaux Foundry
and, lis energetic proprietors, Messrs. P. H.
Gary, and Chas. NJ. ellis.

MORE KrDNArpIsG.-Someh half dozen young
kids have made the pavement on the front Of
our residence their place for enjoying nap
during the whole of the present week. We do
not object to the "young 'uns," but we have a
decided antipathy against those old gentlemaa-
goats who impregnate the air with any thing
else but agreeable odors. IF they do not desist,
we shall be compelled to call upon his honor,
the Mayor, to come to our relief, or the question
may again arise, "Who killed the goats" which
SO perplexed the qnid nuncs some time ago.

The Schuyler Family.

A New York correspondent of the Boston
Transcript, in noticing the Schuyler failure and
fraud in New York, says:
"Mr. Robert Schuyler was well known in
Boston, doubtless from his extensive business
relations, his family connections, and the cir
cumstances of his collegiate education. He was
graduated at Harvard University in 1917, in a
class remarkable forsthe talents of its members,
as it included among others, George Bancroft,
S. A. Elliot, Rev. DR.. Stephen II Tying, (of st.
Georges Church, New York. Caleb Gushing,
and | think the late Lynde NJ Walker, the first
editor of the Transcript, Stephen Schuyler was
of the class at Cambridge in 1920 These gen.
tlemen grandsons of General Schuyler of
Revolutionary fame, and nephews of Alexander
Hamilton. Their father married for his wife
the daughter of distinguished physician of
Eastern Massachusetts, and their relatives are
well known in financial and literary circles in
Boston. In addition to the vast sums raised
upon railroad stock it is reported in Wall street
that upwards of a hundred thousand dollars in
advances upon railroad ironshave been diverted
to private use, so that the grand total of funds
misappled reaches to the enormous sum of
50, 305 600.
{" In regard to the social life of Mr.. Robert
Schuyler, family reasons, it is said, induced
him to propose to his lady love secret mar
rage, and separate establishments in town.
They have recently lived in different houses in
22d street. More than quarter of century
has elapsed since this arrangement had been
made by Mr.. Schuyler, and such had been the
Mariner of his life, that his most intimate per-
sonal friends thought he was bachelor. Some
months ago, one of his daughters being about
to be married to an Episcopal clergyman, her
true name and history were told her lover be-
fore the final arrangements for the wedding
were made. We often hear it remarked that
every house has skeleton in it, but in a house
where years of concealment have been prac-
tised, there must have been skeleton in every
room -

RoBBERY.-A German baker in the employ
OF j.. b. Roddy, was robbed Of all his ready
cash (Sl2O) and some clothes, by a juvenile
fellow countryman Of his on Sunday morning
last. The thief's whereabouts were subsequently
ascertained to be at the railroad camp on Bayou
Black, and pursuit was made, but unfortunately
he espied those who were seeking to arrest him,
and made his escape into the woods and palmet-
toes, and frustrated their designs.

STARVING FOR CoNscIENcE.-The captain of
ship, arrived from the East Indies, has been
complained of at Boston by one of his crew,
for not supplying them with sufficient food
The complainant is Hindoo, and in the charge
which he makes out against the captain he is
to be supported by the testimony of thirty of
his shipmates, who are also Hindoos. The cap
taa had On board an abundance of animal and
other food, such as is used by English and
American seamen, which he offered to his crew,
but this the Hindoos would not eat, and because
Capt. Reed would not supply them with beans,
rice and fish, which was impossible, they allege
the withholding of suitable food. The COM
plainant and the witnesses are now in Jail,
where they subsist on rice and fish, but reject
that when cooked by Christians.

ART 1srEILrGEscE.-The following interest


ing information is from letter in the Newark
Daily Advertiser, dated Florence, June 80:
Powers noble statue of Washington, ordered
by the State of Louisiana, is now completed,
and will be shipped by vessel to New York in
few days. 1t is grand work, and the lovers
of art would do well if they could obtain the
consent Of the Government of the patriotic State
which it is to adorn, for its exhibition en- pdssaat
in the Empire city. The artist is now engaged
on the statue of Webster, ordered by the people
of Boston. The grand orator is represented in
the attitude Of defending the Constitution, which
is firmly grasped ia one hand, while the other
rests upon the symbol of the Union, which it
secures. l have seen nothing among the re-
mains of ancient sculpture, at all comparable to
this last achievement of Americas genius. There
is assuredly no head in the populous Pantheon
OF Greek and Roman notabilities to compare
with that Of the American statesman.

EaT correspondent notices the fact, that
so sure as the militia are called out so sure is
it to rain. We shouldn't have seen much in the
remark had he not followed it by asking our
opinion as to whether the extreme quantity of
wet was not calculated to make them veterans
We scorn to reply.
