A PIECE OF BUTLERIAN LOGIC.

81 stand for that money" said Butler in
his laudation of an inconvertible currency,
(which is by far the better agent and instru-
people than gold and silver-the money alike
of the barbarian and the despot" This But
lerian argument is style of sophism by no
means new But it is so consummately silly
as to detract vastly from the admiration with
which we have heretofore viewed the rugged
moral and intellectual deformities. Let
us restate it, and logically extend
it by few examples, and see what it will
come to. The barbarian and the despot prefer
good money-gold and silver, namely-to
trash; that is to say, to a desiccated vege-
table pulp called paper currency. Therefore,
civilized and Christian people must abjure
good money, must relinquish gold and silver
to heathens and reprobates, and be content
with trash and impecuniosity. The barbarian
and the despot know a fat, succulent turkey
from lean, loathsome turkey buzzard and
they do not hesitate to appropriate the former
to their gastronomic qualification and their
physical nourishment. Wherefore, according
to the Butlerian logic, men of culture who
despise barbsrism and abhor despotism, must,
on principle, reject plump, juicy turkeys,
and consider themselves happy in drink
ing the broth and chewing the sinews
of integumentous, nasty and sinking
turkey buzzards. Again, barbarians and des-
pots, it may be supposed, like good tobacco
and good whisky, and will have no other kind
if left to their own choice. OF course, then,
a refined gentleman or a democrat must
poison himself with the nicotine of rank,
unfragrant leaf, or with the fusel-oil of crude
and excoriating liquor. In short, it is re-
quired of US by the same Butlerian creed
which demands that we shall renounce gold
and silver. that We shall also give up to the
exclusive use of barbarians and despots all
the good and wholesome things in this world
Does Butler expect to figure among the bar
barians or despots, or among both, in enjoy
ing the resulting monopoly?

Duty OF THE CHURCH TOWARDS THE SoUTH.-But
another and more formidable obstacle ia the way
Of our social reconstruction is TO be found in the
stale Of public opinion, expressed By the action
Of certain politico-ecclesiastica bodies at the
North, which persist in regarding the mass of the
southern people as incorrigible rebels and repro
bate sinners against the laws of God and Of man.
While great bodies of Christians refuse to hold
communion with their Southern brethren, on the
ground of quasi connection in the past with
slavery and the rebellion, there can be no genuine
reconstruction of our social and faternal relations
In this respect the Catholics, Episcopalisns and
Friends have set an example of that charity
which, while it reJoices not in iniquity, but reo.
cies in the truth, yet seeks to hide multitude of
sins. The Roman Catholic Church was never dis
rupted by The war, and the Episcopal, which was
temporarily disunited, has again come together in
a spirit of brotherly love, and finds no difficulty in
inviting its members from all sections of the coun
try to sit together in its general ecclesiastical
council. Let like spirit be manifested by the
remaining churches, and it will go far to bind u
the nations wounds and to restore the peace of
society rs outhern Reconstruct on" in Feb. No.

The projected charter is recommended by its
supporters because of its simplicity. Exactly
so. Popular government is a complex and deli
cate machine; but there is nothing SO simple
asyour oligarchy, or your despotism Ifsim-
plieity is what we need, why not convert the
United States government into despotism
like that of Russia? If simplicity is so much
required in single city that its government
must be council of six, almost as absolute
as the Venetian Council of Ten, for much
stronger reasons the government of the
United States should be converted into an
autocratic despotism.

News from Mexico says that the concession
granted in 1868 to Emile LaSere for building
the Tehuantepec road has been modified. BY
the new conditions Mr.. LaSere is to construct
the road from Coatzacoalcas, on the Gulf of
Mexico, to Ventosa, port on the Pacific side
Until the railroad is completed, communica-
ton must be kept open by means of a wagon
road for the construction of which four and
a half years are allowed. If Mr.. LaSere
shall succeed in carrying out this important
project his fellow-citizens of New Orleans will
owe much to his sagacity, energy and enter
prise.

In the course of its investigations on the
adulteration question, the New York World
has come to the article of condensed milk. 1t
is found that, in most cases, this is mixed
with an excess of sugar The object of adj
ding SO much sugar is to conceal the fact that
the milk was skinned before condensation.
Throughout the country many thousand in
fants are fed on condensed milk, on the sup
position, perhaps well founded, that it is su-
perior to the mysterious fluid dispensed in
cities under the name of cows milk. But
the large proportion of sugar is said to be
cloying and clogging to the infantile intes-
tines and, in the opinion of the World, causes
the death of many hundreds of children. Be-
sides this, the sugsr-burdened milk having
been robbed of its cream, is deficient in nu-
fritive properties.

How Col Cumback could have maintained
