Several countries of Continental Europe are
at present considerably agtated by the ques-
ton whether the public schools are to have
sectarian or unsectarian character. In many
towns of Bavaria a popular vote is taken on
the subject. The Catholic bishops and part of
the Protestant clergy are making extraordinary
efforts to influence the people in favor of sec
tartan schools, but the vote of the people in
nearly all the towns from which returns have
been received has thus far been overwhelm-
ingly on the other side. In one town, Neu-
stadt, go Professionals, 545 Catholics, and all the
Jews voted for unsectaran schools, and only
one Protestant and one Roman Catholic against.
Similar votes are reported from a number of
other towns. In Austria, the control of the
public schools is now no longer in the hands
of the Church, but of the State Government,
which is determined to organize the whole pub
lie school system on an unsectarian basis. In
Holland, the recent elections to the second
Chamber secure considerable majority in
favor of maintaining the present unsectarian
character of the public schools.

1EGJSLATING AGAINST VICE.

The World comedies that Liquor Prohibition
would be benefcent if the law were obeyed !;
but since it is not and will not be, and those
who break it are constrained to practice eva
sion, coDcealment, deceit, hypocrisy, it is very
bad thing. That it may be certain that we do
not msappreheDd the force of The Worlds OBJ
lection, we print it verbatim, as follows:
"THR TRIBUNE thinks that the passage the PrOhbtory

Temperance Convention took some action yes
terday concerning which there will be differ
ences of opinion among Temperance men, and
some action concerning which there will be no
difference at all. While many will doubt the
wisdom of efforts for an absolute Prohibtory

the penalties for violation of the existing laws.

Mr. Vincent Collyer makes a most favorable
report concerning the condition of the various
Indian tribes whom he has visited in their wig
vans and on the Plains. Wewish we could free
ourselves Of the fear that in some respects
his statements are rose-cOlored. Yet, after all,
we do not doubt the truth of his conclusion
that by patient efforts in a Christian spirit the
tribes can be civilized, and the end of Indian

This morning the committee on Re-

derstood that the committee is equally
divided regarding Mississippi, the point
of difference being whether the Presi-
dent of the United States or the Recon
struction committee shall appoint the
Provisional Governor. The committee
have agreed to report the Senate bill ex-
tending the time for the removal of in
eligible civil officers in the State of Vir-

NEW YORK, March IL.
MONEY-Active and sharp at per
cent. on call; some weak buyers paid Z
in gold; banks generally doing little.
There is still an uneasy feeling in rela-
ton to the course Of the market for the
next two weeks, which delays the bull
movement. There are reports of look
ing up, but no visible signs thereof.
COMMERCIAL PAPER-Dull at ia
10c.
GOLD-Lower; opened at 1911 and
closed at 1304al30s. The room this af'
ternoon was the scene of great excite
ment and the business transacted was
enormous. Foreign bankers sold eight
or ten million dollars against purchases
of bonds. The strength of the mrrket
was surprise but the large short inter
est undoubtedly checked the downward
movement. Rates for carrying were 2a1
per cent in the morning and in the at
ternoon fat for borrowing.
GOVERNMENT STOCKS - Active
and higher with great excitement anC
animation in the afternoon on large

From Chicago.

CHICAGO, March 1S.-A special from
Cairo, dated to-day, says: AS tue steam
or Belle of Memphis landed at DarnelPs
landing, three men, all named Daniel,
got on board, armed with rifles but not
looking any way suspicious. They told
the captain to land at Island No. 10 as
another party wished TO come ON board
there. AS the boat landed at Island No.
10 three nj en- by the name of Lane ap-
peared on the bank and one came on
board with his wife. As he started up
the stairs he was shot dead by the Oar
nells, who then ran back to the cabin
deck and shot the two Lanes dead who
were standing on shore. The DHrnells
then went on shore and called to the
captain to take care of Mrs. Lane as she
mad oeen respectfully raised. The cause
OF the difficulty is not known.
