TEE SPANISH GUNBoAzs.
seisure OF . Vessel with their Arma-
ments and Stores.

NHw YORK, October 1.-The steamer Europe
of the New York and Galveston line is under
surveillance pending instructions from WASH
ington. She had cargo ofhuge Parrot guns,
and tons Of solid shot and shell. The authors
ties suspect that this cargo is intended
to arm the Spanish gunbosts now ready for
sea. There are just thk:s::.y Of these
gunboats, snd sipgularly enough there were
found Il the hold of the Europe just so one
hundred pound Parrots. There were also 5000
solid shos and shell, which had been cast for
thesesane guns. Speaking editorially OF the
detention Of the Europe, the Tribune says:
"The authorities have jnst laid hands upon a
vessel which, by all accounts, appears to have
been destined TO- supply armaments to the
spanish.gunboatsa ct Mystic. The possibility that
great harm might have been and yet may be
done thereby to the cause Of struggling patriot
ism naturally provokes most earnest desire
that no want Of vigilance shall permit wrong to
aneighbor whose comparative weakness and
whose noble aspirations have our hearty SYM
pathies. The plea Of the Cubans that they
should have the same right to purchase arms
as their savage antagonist must be admitted
in the light Of menscipg events TO have unusual

THE RICE CROP OF 1oU1s1ANA.

The New Orleans Price Current of Saturday,
September 25th, makes the following state
ment in reference to rice culture in that region:
In oaigis9, os the crop e. last season .mS1n HsSS
equal in weight to 2S,0eo tierces Carolina rice,
showing that without any extraordinary exer-
tions the product Of our State has risen In the
past few years from comparatively msienlh-
cant amount, TO something lie three sevenths
of the last crop of the Atlantic States. When
it 10 'rememembered that the whole arsa IN
cultivation N. the State embraces only few
narrow strips In Q, few parishes, chiefly in two
Of them, and considering the many thousands
Of acres Of land within her borders admirably
adapted TO the cultivation Of this cereal, 1t ID
difficult to form any estimate OF the extent 70
Whloh future crops may reach, for 1t ls not 70
be supposed that these lands will always be
permitted 10 lie uneultiyated. With the in
PRODUCTION OF improved mills for the cleaning
of rice, and wlthlmore care than formerly, IN
cultivating and handling, the quality OF
Louisiana rice has been 90 much improved OF
late that it now takes high rank when COM
pared with the products OF other sections. 1t
is said that the further, north nee can be
grown so'thst 1t will mature properly, the bet
ter the quality OF the gram; at least the grain
is harder and less liable to breakage and waste,
in the process Of pounding and cleaning. AS
examples ofthe profits to be realized ftom the
culture OF, rice, we may mention that planter
in the Parish oil St. James lsSs season netted
the handsome sum OF SO. 900 from the product
of 110 scces which be had planted; and in the
sameBparish, the present season, a planter with
ESQ acres OF rice employing twenty hands IN
averaging 9barrels Of 200 pounds each 10 The
acre Of. ia barrels to the hand, winch at ihe
general average OF 6 cents per pound, will give
S13A as the earnings of each hand.

their attachment to the Roman See was never
greater than at present" 1t seems equally
unadvisable to make any further authoritative
statements as to the corporal assumption OF
the Virgin Mary, the state Of nature, the
cause and means of supporting grace, the man
ner in which the body is governed by the soul,
and similar matters. These have already
engaged the attention of former Coun'
cils, particularly that Of Trent, and may
now safely be left to theology. With respect
to the Index of forbidden books, it is urged
that before o work is condemned the opinion OF
the bishop in whose diocese it appeared should
be asked. "Above all things the church
should show herself the friend and protectress
Of all those sciences which adorn AM perfect
mankind, resting we'll assured that all truth
comes from God, and that thorough and ear
nest pursuit Of science is an advantage to
faith. The bishops and clergy should make it
their study to support with all religious zeal
the healthy education Of the people and the
culture Of the learned. They should become
the patrons OF schools, and assist and respect
their teachers. In order to further the educa-
tion of the people, and to render it eficacious
in religious point Of view, it is not sufficient
for the priest Of the parish or another clergy
man to inspect the elementary schools in vir-
tue OF his Office; he must endeayor to gain the
assistance of the members of his congregation,
