SECRET Tsrsr,-The United States
Supreme Court HIS recently made an i'm
portsnt decision en- the sutjsc. Of the trans.
fers Of land, protesting to be an absolute
conveyance. but accompanied with a CON
esalcd verbal agreement between the par
ties, securing berefit to the erantor at the
expense Of The creditors. The Court says
that tho law will not permit = debtor in
falling circumstances 10 convey the lands
by deed wi,hsut reservations, and yet oc
cupy it for limited time for his own ben.
Cit. Hence, when debtor, in pursuancs
ola private understanding, retains posses.
sion, rent free, for one year, Of land sold BY
him, such conduct creates . secret trust for
his benefit, and renders the conveyance
fraunulent - to creditors, and void. And
i. made no difference in the legal aspect Of
the case before the Court, that the interest
reserved was not Of great value. and that
the debtor did not intend to dsfraud hi
creditors.

THAIH on ,IRELAnD.-George Francis
Train has peeuliarities, but he has, never
theless, telling way OF putting things.
School Teachers Of Ireland, he aays:
England hates Ireland-Irelaud hates
England. Porting over the historical books
sent me by the author Of God Save Ire
land, my blood fairly runs cold with the
wroDge Of the Irish. As Sydney Smith
wrote, England destroyed your manufac-
tures and then ealL you idle vagabonds;
robbed you of your estates, and taants you
with being beggars legislated your schools
away and sneered at your ignorance. But
the National School system OF q later day,
ssteaded to destroy your religion AID yonr
nationality, has been the providential
means of preserving both. Reses Irela1d
to Dag u the ssoss Catholic and best educated
coSntsy ~ the world, ~ stated in my sd
dress to the National School Teachers, sent
you laat week.
What has Parliament done for Ireland

have been great; what 10 your compensa-,
tion You have fought England's battles j;
how have you been paid9 Ireland sTas
only been used as a pasturage for an Eng
lish aristocracy-a nursery for Bngland's
army and navy. The Protestant Chur ch
was the arsenal, and the Orangemen the
garrison used to guard the property of the
absentee rulers.
In another letter he says:
England made sad mistake by educa-
ing Ireland, for the educated mind will not
long remain i'll slavery. The patriot spirit
of the three cights-'9S, '4S and '7S-has
made unit of ireland. To-day The best
educated people ia the ;corld are The Irish.
! When England destroyed by her free trade
tactics the factories of Ireland to build up
her own manufactures, she liberated Irish
children and enslaved her own offspring.
Fhe Irish went to school and are educated;
the English child went into the factory and
is ignorant. $780,

RUSSIAN Ut appears that
= fire broke out, short time since, at Poz-
orov, village in the government of GrOd-
already .rprescAins the Catholic church,
when the priest, Able Lipko, came out of
the sacred building in full canonicals, and,
kneeling down in the middle of the road,
prayed to God for protection. He had
scarcely ended his prayer when the wind
changed, and directed the fire to the oppo-
site side of the street, where there was q
Russian church, which was burned to the
ground in consequence. This naturally
made a great impression on the peasantry,
and they proceeded in crowds to the Cath
Ollie church to thank God for it's miraculous
preservation. But the Government could
not allow such dangerous man tho
Able Lipko to remain in Poland. He was
at once banishcd to Siberia.

ExAMPLE.-It would be we'll if fathers
would pause and ponder over the nature
and extent of their influence with their
sons. The boy revcres his father as he re-
veres no other man, and deems him the
true model. He sets up at his fathers
trade while yet he is n mere lad. When
three or four years old, he is merchant,
mechanic, railroad conductor, pedler,
butcher, farmer, grocer, horse Jockey, bar
keeper, or whatever else his father chances
to be; and he has already made UP his
mind that when he gets to be man he will
be just such a one as his father is. This is
the goal of his juvenile dream; and the
purpose in multitudes of cases ripens into
reality. How careful, then, should fathers
be, not TO set before their sons the exam
pie of smoking or drinking, to excite, as it
surely will, their emulation! 1t is they
who plant the seeds of ruin in their sons in
too many cases, and in old age they reap in
tears what they sowed in uuconcern.

A PURITAN SrATR.-Not more than one hun
dred and sixty of ali the promising youth OF
Vermont, according TO the assertion of the
Governor, in his recent message, have during
the past year attended on amy collegiate or
scientific school, whether in the Suite or oilt
of in for the purpose of ~ liberal education.
And but fifty of the seventy-tive thousand
children of the State have been kept constant
ly in the public schools, OH which have been
spent over half a million of dollars for the
year. But, OH the other side, the State prison
has seventy -six inmates; which shows an un-
due ratio of repression for that institution as
compared with the colleges and schools.-Bos-

TALENT.-No men are more justly enti-
tied to fair prices than truly qualified and
competent teachers. And this, not barely
because of the value they give in return,
but because of the great outlay of time and
money necessary to prepare for their pro-
fessiOn. Some teachers have spent dozen
years in their preparation, and have laid
out many Thousand dollars, u capital of time
and money sufficient to have made them
rich in merchandise or at any meel,a.,ioal
art. Few persons can estimate the value
of things where results are produced with
ease and in a moment. They must see the
labor performed. Most men can readily
believe that q railroad, q canal, or a ship is
worth all the money asked for it, but they
cannot understand why o painting or q
statue should be held at many thousand
dollars. Nor can they be amazed that Pag-
amin should expect twenty guineas for q
single tune on the violin!
A plain, but frank-hearted and sensible
farmer once called at the office of q celebra-
ted chief justice in the South, and asked
a very important question that could be an
swered in an instant-yes or no.
"NOn was promptly returned.
The farmer was we'll satisfied. The de-
dollars. The client, now about to retire,
asked the Justice the charge for the inform
alton.
"Ten dollars" replied he.
" Ten dollars J" calculated the astonished
farmer; "ten dollars tor saying 'No!'"
Z" Do you see these rows of books, my
friend ~ rcjoined the chief Justice; (" have
spent many years in reading them and
studying their contents, to answer No."
" Right, right ~ responded the honest
farmer, 81 cheerfully pay the ten dollars"

PRorzsr o. THE QUEEN OF SPAIN.

The following is the concluding portion
of q document recently Issued by the Queen
of Spain, in relation to the resolution which
displaced her from her throne, and sent her
., fasitive and exile from her throne and
kingdom.:
II yop think that the crown of Spain,
worn by . Quean who has had the good for
tune 70 ass0cinte her name with the pOliti-
cal snd social Regeneration Of the State, is
the symbol q those tutelary principles, re-
main faithful, as hope you will, to your
oaths and yOur convictions allow to pass
over - q scourge the revolutionary vortex
in which 1ngratitude, felony, and ambition
are acting, and continue in the assurance
that shall neglect nothing in order to hold
in safety even during misfortune, that en-
blem without which there is not for Spain
either memory to attract, or q hope to
support her. The Insane pride of few
men, agitated for the moment, Overwhelms
the entire nation, produces perturbation in
cOnsciences, and anarchy in society. In my
heart there does not exist any room for ha-
tired of this small faction. should fear that
by contact with SO despicable sentiment
the profound tenderness might be weaken
ed which feel for the loyal men who have
exposed their lives and shed their blood in
defence of the throne and of public order,
and for all Spaniards who look on with sor-
row and alright at the spectacle of q tri-
umphant insurrectiOn, which is u shameful
page in the history of our civilization. In
the noble country whence I now address
you, and wherever may be, I shall sup
port without discouragement the misfor-
tunes of my we'll beloved Spain, which are
also mine. If had nothing else to sustain
me-among many other examples-than
that of the most venerable of sovereigns,
the model of resignation and courage, he
also environed with fluctuations and bitter
enemies Ishould find siren 9Th in the LOYALTY
of my subjects, the justice ofpy cause, and
above all, in the power of Him who holds
in His hands the fate of empires.
The Spanish monarchy, after fifteen CEN
turtles Of struggles, victories, patriotism and
greatness, cannot succumb in fifteen days
of broken oatls, unfaithfulness aud treason.
Let US have faith in the future the glory
of the Spanish people has always been that
of its kings; the misfortunes Of the latter
have always been shared in by the nation.
La the -Eesalate- and patriotic desire to main
tain right, legitimatism and honor, your
minds and efforts will always be in accord
with the energetic decisions and maternal
affection of your Queen.

negro to political rights, had a most detri-
mental effect upon the prosperity Of the
island. It's productions ran down to a very
low point, and the whole black population
seemed to be relapsing into African barba-
rism.
Granted the elective franchise and the right
to hold office, they made politics their chief
business, and neglected industry and all use
full pursuits. The attempt to place the two
races upon a political equality produced its
natural fruits, and demonstrated the impossi
bility of successfully basiDg society and gov
ernment upon such an order of things.
The consequence was that the negroes grew
jealous of the whites, coveted all the offices,
and claimed all power in the island. Finally,
under the instigation of their fanatioal
preachers and brutal leaders, they formed q
conspiracy to massacre the white inhabitants,
plunder their property, seize all the offices,
and run things generally according to their
enlightened and humane notions. But there
happened to be rather brave and energetic
English Governor at the head of affairs, of the
name of Eyre, who detected the conspiracy,
and made pretty summary disposition Of the
ringleaders, which caused great howl to be
raised at the Hub, on this side Of the Big
Herring Pond, and at Exeter Hail. on the
other. Governor Eyre has been pretty badly
prosecuted for doing his duty, and there have
been times when it appeared as if he would
be sacrificed to appease the wrath of the
negro wOrshippers. But, as yet, we believe,
he has escaped their vengeance, though re-
called frem his official position as Colonial
Governor of Jamaica.
Notwithstanding nearly all the public men
in England are more or less tainted with this
mock sentimentalism about the negro, they
had the sagacity to discover where the diff
Guilty lay in Jamaica, and the good sense and
frmness to apply the remedy. They saw that
Jamaica was suffering from an overdose OF
negro politics, and extracted the poison by
Withdrawing the suffrage.
What has been the consequence Order
has been restored to the island, the negroes
have gone to work since they have found out
that this "man and brother business was
played out, and it is said that the sugar crop
has largely increased, and that the coffee
production shows an improvement of fifty per
cent
Here is a lesson by which this country
should profit. 1t proves, as we have often
urged, that making politician of the negro
spOils him as a laborer-that the two races
cannot 60 on together in state of political
equality-and that when the mistake of the
experiment is discovered, it is perfectly safe,
as well as wise and prudent, to retrace the
steps which have been taken in the wrong
direction, and restore white supremacy and
negro subordination. We are going through
this experience, and shall arrive at the same
end.

Railway Management.
From, the N. Y. World.


AS a matter OF general interest and import
ance, we reprinted ftom the London Quarterly
ReOieD an article which gave some valuable
facts relative to railway management in Great
Britain and on the Continent. The English
railway system, from which our own is copied,
is shown to be huge monopoly, a compare
tive failure, and thing OF the highest tariffs
and the lowest profits. This, at least is the
Qudrerly'S view OF the competitive system of
Great Britain as compared with the Cont
mental system, where the Leading lines are
built, owned and run by Government autho.
rites. 1t is shown that the British rail-
ways are built and managed, or mis-
managed, at the highest cost and the
lowest return, while the Continental
government built railways are built and run
SO as to confer the largest amount of advan-
tage upon the users OF the roads, and at the
same time the roads return an abundant profit
on cost and expense of running and manage
ment. Now, there is large class of econo-
mists in this country who say that practically
there is no competition in what we call the
competitive system; that railways are mis-
managed monopolies and that they ought to
be under the control OF the majority, to wit,
the State or the General Government, which
is suppoeed to embody, or at least represent,
the interests of the majority. But it is evil
dent enough that, till we have a civil service,
or a purer government than we have had for
eight years past, the submission of all our
railways to governmental conduct and control
would result in q railway "ring," with cor
ruption surprising that of whisky or any
other ring.
Certainly, however, there is vast room for
railway reform in this country. The article
We printed from the Quarte, ty.is full of hints
which our com panies might take advantage of
to the great profit of themselves and to the
comfort and convenience of their customers.
1t is shown that the cheaper railway travel is
made, the greater the number of passengers
and the surer and larger the dividends. 1t is
not the high-priced travel that pays. The
second and third-rate passengers, who travel
because they are compelled to travel, and not
for pleasure, swell the receipts of railways.
The railroad OF the future will transport pas
sengers from New York to st. Louis for 50,
and to other points at proportionate rates, and
declare good dividends on this business.
Our hotel system is founded upon the same
prepOsterous notion upon which our railways
are run, that the rich are the only people who
travel. The majority of those who are obliged
TO keep moving" are precisely the people
who are not able TO pay 81 80 day for board.
They are merchants, mechanics, laborers,
carpet -bsggers, colored congressman from the
Southern States, and others for whom, on al
our railway lines and in all our cities, must be
opened great caravanserias- Carpet baggers
Homes"-where hash and happiness can be
dispensed at price not to exceed fifty cents
per day. There is abundant room for railway
and hotel Iefcrm in this country.
