. PROGRESSING BACKWARDS. We have
all heard of the famous Dutch officer who be-
ing ordered to the front, took one step forward
and two back; and this, according to the tes-
timony Of General Gustav, is the unhappy con-
dition OF Texas. He is reported to have testi-
fed before the immortal Fifteen, that six months
ago the people Of that State were more loyal
than they are to-day, and he significantly add
ed that they are specially dissatisfied because
they are not allowed representation in Con
gress.
: Granting the correctness of General Gustav S
opinion, (Which is but an opinion,) ought not

fecitous irony-to devote themselves to the
restoration of the dying sentiment OF Unionlsm

HOG DISEASE The excitement about tie
trchina disease is said to have had Il very great
effect in diminishing the consumption Of hog
flesh in New York The New York Times
mentions one Of the great popular eating-house5
of the city, in which hundreds Of plates Of swine,
in the various ways in which it is prepared and
served up, were called for daily, but where now
the calls are limited to one or two Per diem.
The late rum0r that the disease had actually
made its appearance in this country will III
crease the public apprehension. 1t IS feared
that the hog trade of Cincinnati, Chicago. St.
Louis and other Western cities, Will lie quite
seriously affected for some months at least. We
have been unable to discover any real grounds
for this panic. The subject has been inyesti
gated by scientific man, and they say that there
is as much danger in cutting beef as hog

GUS anomaly and the Eeproach of vir-

The moral and religious training of
the young is not keeping pace with
the mental training. The greatest ac,
tivity is manifested in improving our
text books and our methods of instruc-
