I It is stated in the newspapers that the
government Of Para quay are making elaborate
preparations to resist the ascent of the naval
fesces Of the United States upon the river to
TIE capital of that country. There seems to be
no sufficient evidence adduced to give authenti-
city to this report; but It is nevertheless posi-
Bic that President Lopez has adopted some such
system Of defence DISTINCTIONS thrown into
such q water-c course to be efectual, must involve
The government not only in serious expenditures,
but operate hereafter greatly to the annoyance
Of the people themselves. But it is extremely
doubtful whether any impediments thrown into
the river win be able to obstruct the running Of
our vessels of light draft. ss;

4 Bold Fgure.-SPargeon Oateto@e'
The Clarksburg, (Va.) Register furn-
isles the following, as specimen OF
strong language from the pulpit The
Rev. Samuel Clawson a minister OF the
NJ. f. Church, who is very eccentric, and
has very vivid imagination, in speak
ing of one present during one of his dis
courses who was Universalist, gave an
expression to the following bit of elo-
quence
"Thank God, the day is not far dis
tant when you shall be chained down to
Hell's brazen floor, and the Devil, with
his three pronged harpoon, will pierce
your reeking heart, and pile the red-hot
cinders of black damnation upon You as
high as the pyramids of Egypt, and fry
ont tie pride of your fat to grease the
gudgeoas IF he'll"

The Quackery Of Beneroleace.-Ihe
Rev. John Guilliver, of Philadelphia says
Philadelphia paper, is the Secretary of
the American Systematic Beneficence
Society,"" which proposes to collect ten
millions of dollars from children in the
Sabbath School-by the issue of stock
certificates at twenty five cents EACH
The following is from the prospectus
which this reverend gentleman has put
forth to the public:
IA" Stockholders are guaranteed to re-
ceive one hundred times as much as they
put in, Mark 10: 90, 30) Those who
continue to pay into the fund, as much
as six cents week, for three years in
succession, to be Life Members of the
American Systematic Bene6cence Socie-
ty. Those who do this for six years to
be Honorary Managers for life. Those
who do this for ten years, to be Honora-
ry Vice Presidents for life. Those who
do this from love to Christi while they
live, will have a free admission, through
the gates, into the Heavenly City, snow
white robe, heavenly harp, a crown OF
gold, and seat at the right hand OF the
final Judge"
We can imagine nothing better calcu-
lated to bring religion into contempt than
such transparent and blasphemous quack-
cry as this.

The Use Of Great Mem.-The general
complaint that this is an age of medioc-
rity seems without foundation, if we may
;udee by the fulsome OBITUARY notices
that appear in the journals from week to
week. Men die, according to these eul-
ocies, possessed Of every virtue their
minds are of gigantic mould and their
patriotism scarcely second to that of a
Washington or Brutus. Our Northern
contemporaries have already discovered
that Col. Benton was coequal in intel
lect with Clay, Webster, or Calhoun.
Dogmatism is not genious. Truth
must live beyond the grave; and while
we applaud the industry and the obstina-
cy of Benton-for obstinacy may occa-
sionally rise into a virtue-wc cannot
acknowledge that his ghost is entitled to
take part in quartette with the shades
of the illusHious trio we have named
above. The North applauds the Colonel
because, in his decline, he wished the
wind to blow in that direction but histo-
ny will tell thata true statesman is he
who never desires one section Of his coun-
try to triumph at the expense of the other.
Great men have their uses, but etfigies
have not The European citizen was
right who subscribed for a statue to be
raised to an illustrous countryman, in or
der that his children might walk in the
shade of his greatness but let us avoid
boeues statues. The marble employed
on tomb is enough to describe the vir-
= tues of those who leave not their impress
upon the age F; we do not want stone to
inmortalize brass The days in which
we live are not heroic. lngl0rious peace
has Slapped our manhood and our reputa-
ton still we never doubt that the germs
of heroism are ready to bud forth, when
a man is great enough to bid this era live
Unfortunately, success has become toe
much the criterion of merit, and genius
is out of elbow, while pomposity struts
in fields of clover. Still, great men have
their mission now as ever, and will again
speak charlottesville Courier.
