it was there. 1t always is where warm
affections exist. It came forth now, at
the moment when these affections were
stirred to their depths. Not with much
outward demonstration the man did
not go down on his knees, but his heart
knelt to the Giver of all good. No set
form of thanksgiving came to his lips,
beyond the single exclamation that burst
from him as Norah, between sobs, re-
turned his passionate kisses
The Lord be praised for this blessed

Only an exclamation, yet almost as
long as that Of the publican who implor-

gradually came to realize his great de-

words. The effectual fervent prayer

I do not assert for Terence anything
like change Of heart. Nature, as Lin
naus has expressed it, makes no great
leaps. She does not deal in sudden
ransformations The seed, the plant
the blossom, the fruit,--these are the
types of her gradual workings. If there
be examples of men regenerated by Q
single experience, these are so rare as
only to prove the general rule of patient
progression. In the present case the
young mans better nature had been
stirred that was all. After, influences
must decide whether the first impression
was to grow and strengthen, or to fade
out, leaving him to sink back again tc
the level of his former life.-From BE.

Fish.

The attention Of thoughtful men ev-
erywhere is being attracted to the i'm
portance, of not only protecting, bot
raising Fish. The law for the proven
ton of netting and seining fish expires
in May. and we are not without hope
that the Legislature of this State at the
present session will put the law in force
again If our law makers would pre-
vent the wholesale destruction of fish in
our lakelets and streams in the State for
n few years IL would result in great ben
efits to the people. 1t is a mistaken
idea TO suppose that laws for the protec-
ton of fish care only intended for the
benefit Of the disciples of Isaac Walton.
The people are more interested than the
sportsmeH.a Fish can be raised without
any cost for feeding, and one acre of
water can be made to produce more
food in given length of time, than Eve
acres of land. IF the proper measures
were taken, our streams could, in the
course of anfew years, be made to liter
ally swarm with the best varietiesof fish.
AS a matter Of public economy the 1'eg
islature should take the most effec tive
measures to prevent the useless aud
profligate destruction of fish. We earn
estly hope that it may be done.

The Vanderbilt Bronze.

One of our morning contemporaries, Che
Times, objects TO our proposition of the trans
fer of the Vanderbilt bronze to our beautiful
Park, and contends that this splendid monu-
ment is just where it ought to be-over the
central section of the main front of the rail
road depot of st. Johns square. We think
not With the growth of the city and the ever
increasing mercantile pressure down town for
more room, we apprehend that a few years
hence the railroad depot at st. Johns square
will have to be sold and converted into stores;
that the Hudson River Railroad Company will
be offered bargain to leave which cannot be
resisted; that the depot building will then be
torn down and remOdelled or raised several
stories higher for the business Of jobbing
houses, and then what will become Of the
'sVanderbnt bronze?" If not given or sold to
the city for the Park it will be sold as old
metal, so remorseess are the demands of trade.
Hence, while Commodore Vanderbilt is still
among u.s. hale and hearty, and while Captain
Degroot, rare genius in the fine arts is still
on hand to superintend the work, we repeat
our proposition for the removal of the Evan
derbilt bronze" to an appropriate site over
some entrance to or over an approach to some
conspicuous bridge within our great Park.
The objection that this "bronze" is only a
monument to the achievements of private
citizen is Of no force; for in truth the
''bronze" is a monument Of the greatest ma
terial inventions and enterprises of the nine
teenth century. In other words, this beautiful
work is a monument Of the genius and pro-
gress of the age, and in this light it will be a
valuable legacy to posterity. The Park is the
place for it, because this monument should not
be lost, and we know of no other place on the
island where there is any security for it's pre-
! serYatiOn.

cables will operate in the Same way upon inter
national financial matters, as the telegraph
wires upon those of each country. Still
another movement has been suggested for
extending the use Of the telegraph in the
interest of commerce-that is, to keep the
shipping agents and masters in all the ports
of the world advised Of the rise and course Of
storms and Of the electrical and atmo spherical
condition of different parts of the globe. 1t
will be seen at once that If universal system
of this character be established there must
follow a great saving of life and wealth, as
well as Of time in the voyages of vessels.
These are some of the changes being effected
through the magnetic telegraph; but far greater
are to come. The most important will be,
probably, the revolution in currency and
financial matters. Is it not necessary, then,
that this migaty agent of modern civilization
and progress should be in the hands and under
the control of government It must come to
that, and The sooner the better.

EXPLOSIVE Ons-KERosgEE AND NAPn-
THA.-From the report of the chemist
employed by the Board of Health to examine
the quality of kerosene oil sold by the various
dealers in that article, the dangerous quality
of the compound appears to be pretty extern
siyciy in the market in this city and Brooklyn.
There is hardly day that we do not hear OF
some women and children being burned fatally
by the careless use of this article. Il would
seem from the report referred to, which we
published yesterday, that it may not be sim
ply carelessness which leads to these disasters
as much as to the explosive properties Of the
material itself. For example, 1t turns out
that it is not kerosene which is sold under
that name, but naphtha, most destructive
article, liable to explode, like gunpowder, at
any moment. BY looking over the list Of par
ties who sell this dangerous article, az
reported by the chemist of the Board .

A COMPLIMENT TO THE UNITED STATES.
AT the Universal Peace Congress, now in SEES
sion at Lausanne, Victor Hugo toasted the
republic of the United States. 'He felt sure
that, initiating the example Of America,
Europe would eventually become a federative
republic" Victor Hugo is not always right.
He is we know, better novelist than poll
tician. In this case, however, he shows that
he is both good historian and good
philosopher. Crowned heads must become
fewer and fewer the peoples will be drawn
closer to each other and European republic
will come as necessity and a blessing. Our
example has already produced fruit.

ANOTHER EXTENSION. Board of Health
has granted another respite to the int0lerabls
rendering" nuisance. The fault, perhaps, Is In
the scientific nose. The Board does not know
what a nuisance is. 1t suffers itself to listen
too much to the arguments Of those who are
ready to show that everything disgusting and
horrible is in the highest degree healthy. We
need some direct legislation on the subject Of
carrying on, within the limits Of thiokly popn-
lated cities, trades that are nuisances in the
very nature of things. All the class Of
trades that make commodities from the
refuse OF animal matter should be banished to
distance Of at least twenty miles from tho
City Hall. Commissioner Manierre deserves
especial praise for the one vote cast against
this extension.

No DANGER. English journals express,
with great interest in our affairs, the embar-
rassment that a war with Spain would be to
us, while it would be no additional burden or
disaster to Spain, and the Spanish press con-
siders such war as If it might be merely a
repetition of the bombardnent Of Valparaiso.
From the opposite side Of the question this
matter appears to us In quite another shape.
We could occupy Cuba in thirty days with
fifty thousand men if necessary. AS for the
sea, they will cite the case Of the Alabama to
show what would happen to our commerce,
Thanks to radical legislation, there is but little
commerce to protect; but our navy would moi

THE New YORK DEMOCRACY AND THE
CHlNEsE.--In his opening speech at the late
Syracuse Convention Mr.. Samuel J. Tilden
took pretty strong ground against the intro
duction Of the Chinese into this country as
coolies and as voluntary immigrants. We
believe, too, that an anti-Mongolan resolution
was in the platform as prepared for the Con-
vention, bat it does not appear in the platform
adopted. The reason, we understand, is that
it was thought best to have a clean fight on
''Uncle Tom," and that in mixing him up with
the Chinaman 1t was getting too near the
white man for fair fight on the almighty
Niger" Let the rank and file bear this il
mind-they are to settle with Sambo now and
with John Chiuaman hereafter.
