JUBILEE WEEK.-We are pleased to
hear that the Rev. Edwin M. Long,
formerly in charge of the Union Taber-
nacle of Philadelphia, and widely
known as the 'Children's Preacher in
tends holding one of his grand Jubilees
in the NJ. E. Church, of this place, COM
mencing Wednesday evening, May %.
We are told the Church is to be beauti-
fully decorated, which, with Mr.. Longs
splendid panoramic paintings, brilliant
illustrated lecture, and the songs of the
children, will make jubilee indeed
that will gladden. the hearts of all who
may attend. Among the many testi-
monials we clip the following from the
Phts6,ug EUen1ag Gazette of Dec. 8:
Rev. E. M. Long, the Children's
Preacher, has been delivering course
of sermons on the plan of salvation
illustrating the text bya series of large
and beautiful oil paintings, which were
painted for that purpose. By this
means the attention of the young is Sc
cured, and many sOul-saving truths
simplified and impressed on the mind.
These services have been held in the fol-
lowing churches Rev. Messrs. Swift's,
Bell's, McLean's, and the Central Pres,
byterian, (late DIR. Plumer's, )Alleghany
and Rev. Drs. Howard's and PaXton's
in Pittsburg. Much interest has been
awakened among the young so that the
largest churches have been unable to
hold them, and although some even
ings the aisles and spaces about the pull
pit have been full by persons standing,
yet the church doors had to be locked
to prevent any more from entering and
service to begin before the appointed
time. On one evening ninety-four let
ters and notes were handed Mr.. Long,
written by children.

"A Curious. Contrast.

Histsry will hereafter record the particu-
lars of.a strange contrast in the fortunes OF
two brJthers, sons Of Francis Joseph, Arch
duke ofSAustria. Educated with great care
and encouraged TO look forward with high
expectations, they We're regarded when they
arriTedast their majority as the most accorn-
plished5 princes of The age. The eldest, Fran.
els Joseph, Jr., in Consequence of the abdi-
cation Sof Ferdinand, Emperor of Austria,
aud thsrenunciation of his claim to the throne
by Frascis Joseph, Sr., became years ago in
vested With the imperial purple, and has ever
since maintained his position as one of the
great powers OF Europe. His brother, Ferd.
nand Maximiian Joseph, was educated at
Ticnna, and has always maintained high
reputation as {. scholar and gentleman.
When he ruled as Vi:eroy in Vcretia, much
as theNenetiens hated their conquerors, they
could not withhold from him the need Of
their admiration. In speaking of him, the
citizens of Venice used to say that they had
only one fault with him: lie was an Aus
trian!pp
AftaF being removed from the vice royalty,
he devoted himself to literary and scientific
pursuits till 1863, when, at the instance of
Louis Napoleon, he accepted the informally

Hon. George II. rendleton or the Sit

Hen. George II. Pend eton, by tie invita-
ton Of the Democratic Club of U.bana,
Ohio, made a POLITICAL address, not Iong since,
in tue course of which he said:
The old political system passed away in
1861, and another was adopted. Its little
finger is heavier than the whole body Of that
which it superseded. No longer do we ask
Have we Government? lis Argus eyes seek
every-where lie accumulation oI LABOR and
capital, and its Iyiaian arms a.e ever grasp
ing all those eyes can see. Its vast military
and naval establishments have risen with po:
tentiou; tnain, and oYershalow the clv; ad-.
mi is,ration in nearly olo half the country.
There is no doubt tllat we have u Govern
ment-a slrong oae-stroDg in the number OF
men whom it can conscvpr; sr1ng in the
treasure it can raise Gy taxation; strong IN
its power to evads the rights OF the States and
th. liberties of tie citizens: strong III its ca
paci,y to override the Constitution; strong
as Rome was strong, east and west, under the
Emp rors, strong rs France was srrnrg un-
der the reign of terror aud the grllloine; but
weak as they were weak when tic Guths aud
Vandals avenged Gil the seven hilled city the
wrongs of Germans. OF when the blood of the
m rlered Dantoa choked the despairing Robes
espi rre.
Afjer reviewing the political history Of the
country for the prs. SIX years, h. contended
that the party in control Of the Government
having become revolutionis's, will go on from
one point to another from the reconstruction
of 1861 to he co;iisc.tion scheme of Tnad
deus Stevens, and from that to whatever else
the irenzy of the times may prompt, till the
reaction Shall c me, and the people, sated
and wearied, shall drive them from power,
even though it may be through blood. Con
tlnuing, he said:

to despair. l see among my own friends a
tendency to give up all for lost. They have
lost hope-they have lost courage-their dos

TIE WAY TO FIGHT lNDIANs.-A special
correspondence Tie Missouri Democrat grows
savage over the Indian troub cS. Judging IRON
the following little bit Of advice he gives the
Government:
The oSly va; to Eight Indians, at least the
Sioux and Cheycnpcs, IS TO permit live hun
dred prairie settlcrs-mcn who have lived on
the plains (ro%l boySood- who are skilled
in all the devious ways Of the savage, TO 60
after them. These men can readily be found
in the States OF Kansas, Nebraska, aad that
pyrlicn ot the Territory OF Colorado that juts
ost on the plains, eastward Of the Rocky
Mountains. For their services, the captured
ponies and othcr.trophies will prove sufficient
recompense. Lei the Government but pro-
claim that for the sake Of economy, and q
speedy solution of the Indian question, ii is
willing that Western volunteers leap into the
saddle without drum or sounding cavnlry
tugle. Their incentive TO the seliimposed
t,,i would be the waiing Of Western n;nth"rs
fJr their Grsl-boin, strong, bearded men
moaning for'thcir sons, brothers sghlns for
outraged sisters, lingering in scrYile bondage
in the wigwams of. their vile captors. No
naudlin sentimentality, we opinc, would find
roam in their bosams. Everything would bn
brgottcn, unheard, save the furious cry for
revenge! When these men have chasicned
the Indians after theis own fashion, let IlaS-
tern missionaries mingle with the subdued
and conquered tritcs, and complete the good
work. ii any Indians were left, after the
swords of the de,,roving Avengers, the mis-
sonarics, doubtless, would fad eager listen
PRS to the Gospel, and tie Christian shepherds
wiling nocks. The Gospel would be as u
balm Of Giead to The stricken ones, and the
no,nadic sons Of Ishnae would become civil
izcd citizens of the great republic.
