THE WAY TO ACCOMPLISH RESULTS

THE WAY TO ACCOMPLISH Results
Goblet is said to have written the purest
Anglo Saxon of any author of his day-or
perhaps ours. The way he overcame OBJ
stacles, which some faint hearted individu-
ais would deem insuperable, he informs us
in the sketch of his life prefacing his works.
He says:
%! learned grammar when was a private
soldier on the pay of siXpencc IL day. Tie edge
of my berth, or that of my guard-ied. was nv
seat to study in; my knapsack was my book
case, and bit of board lying in NV Ian was
my writing table, l had no money, to purchase
candle or oil in winter it rarely that /
could get any light but that of the lire, and
only my turn even of that. To buy pen ar

could call my own; and had to read n nd write
amid the talking, laughing. singing, whstling
and bawling of ut least half II score of the
most thoughtless of men, and that, too. in their
hours of freedom from control. And sayVif |
under these circumstances could encounter and
overcome the task-is, there, can there be, in

Mt bad faith and dishonesty, even under the
robe of the senator, or on the royal throne.
And though Radicalism should be de-
feated in this immediate struggle. that will
by no means end the contest. That moral
contagion has been steadily gaining
ground in this country since the first
evil seed from Exeter Hall were scattered
in our midst. The frenzy of the first few
disciples the John Brown invasion, the
Kansas war, the Know-nothing tempest,
the election of Lincoln, were all progressive
steps showing the spread of the disease
and now the election in Vermont proves
the malady to be more virulent than ever.
without regard to the passions evoked by
war. 1t may not, indeed, exist to a great
extent in any but New England populations.
1t may be that the other native populations
and all the foreign populations are still con-
servative in their tendency, and will show
it in the approaching electors; but even
they will finally become tainted with the
disease; and time alone can show whether
the growth of the Catholic Church will be
rapid enough to Offset the spread of Radi-
calism, and enable it dissipate the omens of
ruin with which that evil element now
threatens this continent

fortunes, as did the Society of St. Vincent

teachings OF experience will gradually de-
veiop it into perfected system, as useful.
in its way, as the illustrious organization
just mentioned. There is a radical differ.
ence between the objects proposed to be
effected by the two systems. The Society
of st. Vincent of Paul has in view works
OF charity towards the neighbor; the organ
'zation here referred to seeks the culture
and improvement of it's own members.
1t proposes to cultivate their intelligence
by access to desirable reading; to amelio-
rate their habits by furnishing amusements
and recreations innocent in themselves, and
replacing others that might be either
worldly or vicious, and to cement those
ponds OF mutual interest which ought to
exist among them throughout the commu-
llty, by establishing and maintaining an
which would otherwise be
merely casual. Experience will gradually
make known to them how these objects can
'est be effected, and from the character of
he young gentlemen engaged in the exper-
ment, we can hardly doubt that they will
ersevere to that contamination, notwith-
landing the obstacles and discouragements
hat generally beset the initiative of every
hing good

The Great Procession.

The great procession, ono week ago
occurred too late to be noticed in on,
columns on the succeeding day, yet we Car
hardly let the occasion pass without a few
words of congratulation.
NO spectacle of so imposing and brilliant
character has ever before been seen in
our midst, nor, probably, in this country
anywhere, combining, at the same time, 80
much unanimity among the population.
IL has been mockingly observed, that it's
proportions were considerably eked out by
the participation of boys and girls. Such
remark is strange oversight in a critic.
Nothing more clearly indicates the feeling
of community than the sympathies of its
children. Their enthusiasm is ALWAYS
genuine: Grown people may sometimes
get up pageant for political effect, and
keep up their courage by forced display !;
but children are earnest. Manly hurrabs
may be inspired at political headquarters {;
childish enthusiasm is a revelation from the
fre-side.
We were particularly struck with the
splendid array of the Dray Democratic
Club. By far the most numerous of the
mounted clubs, and second in numbers tn
but one of those not mounted, their endless
line, beautiful lights, and determined "a
pect gave an Importance and character to
their demonstration scarcely to be met with
elsewhere in the procession.
The gallant Hibernian Club, of the
Third District, turned out in great force
also, being, as we predicted, one of the
largest organizations present, though one
of the youngest.
these two bodies comprise men who
never stop half way, but carry out their
objects in spite of Inconvenience and OBJ
stacles. We expect to have even a still |
better showing made by them before cleo
ion day.
The colored clubs numbered, if we re-
member Alright, some four or five hundred
members present. This was very we'll for
hrst effort; but the reaction has, as vet
carceiy commenced among that population.
hey are still bewildered with the glare of n
alse philanthropy and of friendship born
II pohcy. They still esteem as redeemers
nen who despise while they use them, and
egard with distrust those in whose service
hey earn their bread. They do not see
hat by this persistent hostility they put
he white race in the position of the man
no warmed viper in his breast. 1t is
robable that when a revulsion of their =
'ellngs once commences its manifestation s
ill soon be general. In the meantime, if r
lch of our more central clubs would or 4
anize colored auxiliary, as several have q
READY done, and if each member would +
AXE point of procuring one recruit for Il
, as many of them could do, the ball v
ould soon be set in motion. +

TUESDAY, 14ru JANUARY 1868.


To a true mind, it is not very easy to
see how the natural feelings of the natives
of this Island, or so called, Danish West
India Possession, are at this moment.
Look at the result of the voting 10 St.
Thomls-1039 for the Americans, and %
for The Danes. Think then, We Natives
of st. Croix, who have for years past
changed Nationality, and who have be-
lOnged to a great Nation-the English
Nation. The American Nation is a good
and a pure one; they have shown their
greatness and their vaIor in the late war
so the Americans can be placed on a foot
ing; equal, if not entirely, with the great
English Nation. To Judge of things, as
they are no it would be like comparing
the moon with the snn-the one for the
night and the other for the day. The
people of St. Croix, living under the Dan
ish Aag-a fig, which in It's own place,
has been of spIendor and yalor of past
india possessions. Why we say SO
Can any person tell us, hat after spend
ing SO much for a public school, even
when proper scholars are dismissed, that
they should not be able to fill situations
that the highly termed named Of "Candi.
datUs j%ufis" and "Examinatus juris'' now
fill? What are they in reality? Nothing
more nor less than the scholars of the Danish
school, which cost the country so much mo-
ney. What boundary then have The natives?
A native, with ever SO great abilities, hon
or and integrity reaches TO a salary of iif-
iy or sixty, or even seventy dollars, after
having served some twenty or thirty
years; when a Danish gentleman can come
here with a salary of some one hundred
dollars, on his passage, from Copenhagen
TO take over his situation, and receive per-
haps one hundred and fifty, or even two
hundred dollars per month. We cannot
deny that we have gentlemen, some few,
from Denmark, whose names, it would
be improper TO mention but they are u
type of an Nationality, worthy of former
times. Citizens of St. Croix, what will
become of all 81 you? Separated from
st. Thomas and ST. Johns, and be of far
less value than TortoIa, which latter coun-
Try is of more Importance to its Mother
Country than this Island. Why? See
what the English Nation does for their
Westindia Possessions. Not as a Danish
minister once said, that it would be The
best thing to get rid of the Colonies. If he
then said so, why not ST.. Croix go;
for if Denmark keeps st. Ctoix alone, it
would be worse for the inhabitants, larger
in number, than those of Tortola. Ruin
would be the result. Bully for the Amer
leans! People Of the Island Of St. Croix
look after yourselves.

10 the Editor Of the est. CrOiX Avis"
Dear Mr.. Editor.

have been informed as a fact that the
UnIttd States Government will not buy
this Island as they would have no use for
1t, only as a hospital for their sick when
ever 81. Thomas is unhealthy and as
they are permitted now to make that use
of it, Of course they need not purchase.
Poor St, Croix standing alone must GER
tainly be ruined as it is unnatural to cx-
pect that the SO called free Iabouring pop
ulatlon will remain under arbitrary regu-
latIons mot laws when they can emigrate
40 miles and enjoy the freedom long since
granted 10y His Most Gracious Majesty.
Another fearful calamity is the burden
we now groan under, in supporting a
number Of unnecessary Government En-
pI0yes, and this number will certainly be
augmented to an insupportable degree when
those now at st. Thomas will be added.
Oh my poor Country we must and will
not longer remain a Danish nursery.
