The Illinois Episcopal Convention has almost
unanimously passed Il vote cOndemning the
proposed revision Of the Scriptures by the
Convention of Canterbury. The objections
made to it are three in number. First: "Thc
marked exclusiveness of the movement, no
"nOtice having been given to sister churches; :;
but it is difficult to see how this will affect
the accuracy of the proposed revision. Secondly:
"The questionable orthodoxy Of some whose
confirmation has been formally invoked"
But this certainly does not look like marked
exclusiveness.n Thirdly: "The scantiness or
uncertainty of expected results This seems
to us to be matter of the future. Ii will
surely be time enough to pronounce the re-
suits scantyr or uncertain when they have
been definitely arrived at. This Convention
does not say that our Biblical version does
not need revision. All scholars for a century
have been of the opinion that it does; and it
is not wise to quarrel with the Canterbury
work in advance. Really, to our secular eyes,
this Scripture Revision appears to be about
the most sensible work in which the Anglican
Church has recently engaged. Weary as we
are of what, we apprehend, are interminable
controversies about ceremonial observances,
about aItar-clOths and clerical drapery, and
genuhexions, and fifty other things OF which
we do not speak disrespectfully, because we
have no bitterness for any form of human
folly taking this religious direction; yet un-
questionably, tired as we are of English
squabbes family aped in this country, we
have thought that good, manly, Intellectual,
substantial, scholarly piece of work, like re-
vision of our translation of the Bible, might
have healthy effect upon priests and people.
But with great regret we are Obliged to ac-
knowledge that the Anglican Church is in such
a condition of chronic irritation that nothing
however reasonable can be proposed without
q wrangle.

King William officially prOnOunces the in
vestment of Paris complete. How the operation
was conducted is told in detail this morning in
the special dispatches from our Paris corre-
spondent, forwarded to London by messenger
who left the besieged capital as late as
Tuesday evening. These dispatches reveal
the great importance of the successes
of the Prussians on the 10Th, IN
seizing the nights of Sceaux. They also
suggest that there has been great
mis1nanagement in Paris, where the military
authorities have remained quiet and undemon-
strative, and have permitted the Prussians to
occupy points of vital Importance. We suspect
this inactivity to be enforced; and that Gen.
Trochu is compelled to remain strictly on the
defensive by reason Of the character of the
troops at his command. The defeat Of VinOy's
corps seems to render field operations on
Trochu's part out of the question.

outraged 0hioan, who had suffered more grley-
ously than usual in trip from Cincinnati

test to the papers, detailing the means and
methods of extOrtiOn practiced by sleeping-car

to the extortion practiced and the discomfort
experienced on these costly tOrments. Inc

change must be made before the Legls-

road presidents in this State have testified
that the sleeping-car system, as at present
carried on, is an injury to rapid travel, and
urgently in need of complete Overhauling and
reorganization. AS managed now there Is
neither cleanliness nor comfort, and for safety
and good ventilation the common car is far
preferable to the sleeping-coach. The main
wrong is extortion; there is to and from every
point Enthusiastically varying scale, based upon
no law OF reason known to the average trav

in a feeble sort of way last Winter to work
out a reform in this matter, but did not sue

as much for berth from Albany to Syracuse
as from New York to Buffalo. The remedy,
as in all abuses of this kind, lies in the hands
of the people themselves and when travellers
are determined to work a reform they have
ample precedents for setting about it.

A proposal made few months ago that the
surplus of the indemnity money paid over by
the Chinese to the United States Representa-
tive after the destruction of the Canton facto-
ries in 1850, should be appropriated to the
foundation of Chino American college at
Pekin, seems to find some favor among our
countrymen in China The Shanghai NelrS-
Letter, the only American organ in that
country, warmly cOmmends the idea, and
urges that steps be taken to put it into speedy
execution, suggesting, however, that Shanghai,
"the commercial metropolis of China," be
chosen as its location, in lieu of Pekin. The
late Mr.. Bulingame was strongly in favor of
the scheme, and urged its acceptance upon the
United States Government. But it is ques-
ton whether it would be so advantageous
to our interests as to warrant the outlay
of 100000 as proposed. A college whereat
Americans might be in the heart breaking
hierOglyphics of Simitic lore does not appear
to us to be necessity so imperative that the
Government should expend 100000 in erect
ing and maintaining it. Students are O requi-
site to the success of most colleges, and these,
we Judge, would not be forthcoming. There
does not seem to be any great zeal displayed
in the matter of acquiring Chinese by the
trading classes, who find "pidgin English v
sufficient as q medium in which to transact
their daily business. The missionaries, and
those who desire to fit themselves for native
official employment are not numerous OF
wealthy enough to sustain such an institution,
and altogether we conclude that the Govern
ment can find better use for its surplus funds

liquors in this place, | embrace this op-
portunity of informing you that on Sat
urday next | will commence the business
of making drunkards, paupers and beg
gars, for the industrious and respectable
of the community to support.
/ shall deal in familiar spirits, which
will invite men to riot, robbery, and
blood-shed, and by so doing diminish the
comforts, increase the expense, and
endanger the welfare OF the commu-
nifty.
l will for small sum, undertake, upon
short notice, and with the greatest expe-
dition, to prepare victims for the poor
house, asylum, prisons. and the gal
lows.
will furnish an article suited to the
taste, which will increase the number of
fatal accidents, multiplying distressing
diseases, and rendering those compara-
lively harmless, incurable.
/ will deal in drugs which will deprive
some of life, many of reason, most oi
property, and all of peace; which will
cause fathers to become fiends, wives to
become widows, and children to become
orphans, and all to become great sui
fers.
will cause :he rising generation TO
grow up in ignorance, and prove nui-
sance to the nation. / will cause moth.
ers to forget their helpless children, and
priceless virtue no longer to remembe
its value.

Girls Don't Talk Slang.

Girls don't talk slang! II necessary
that any one should do that let it be
your big brother, though I would advise
him not to adopt "pigeon English" when
there is an elegant systematized language
he can just a. well use. But don't you
do it. You can have no idea how il
sounds TO ears unused to or adverse to it,
TO hear a young lady, when she is asked
to attend place OF amusement answer
"not much;" or if she is requested to do
something she does not wish to, "can't
see itr'
Not long ago I heard Young miss,
who is educated aud accomplished, say,
in speaking Of young man, that she in
tended "to go for him!" and her sister
asked her assistance at some work, she
answered 'Not for Joe"
Now, young ladies Of unexceptional
character and really good education, fall
into this habit, thinking it shows smart
ness to answer back in slang phrazcs I;
and they soon slip fppantly from their
tongues with saucy pertness, that is
not lady like or becoming. Young men
who talk in that way do not care TO hear
it from the lips they love or admire. 1t
sou-d DIS much coarser then. 81 bet" or
"you bet,' is well enough between men
who trade horses or lands; but the con-
trast is startling and positively shocking
when young man is holding the hand
OF his lady love,to hear those words issue
from her lips. They seem at once to sur
round her with the rougher associations
of his daily life, and bring her down from
the pedestal of purity, whereon he had
placed her, to his own coarse level.
And really, slang does not save time
in the use OF language, as an abbrevia-
tive No! is shorter and more decided
than "not much ~ and 81 know" or 81
am sure" is quite as easily said as "I'll
bet" More than one promised wedding
has been indefinitely postponed by such
means; for however remiss young men
may be themselves, they look for better
things in the girls OF their choice; and it
does not help them mend bad habit to
adopt 1t too. Besides two wrongs never
make right. know the bright eyed
girl who reads this will think tie matter
over, aud say am right.

TIE FRENCH "CoRPs LEGisLATIF. y
Americans who do not trouble them
selves with French politics are always
puzzled, whenever they chance to read
the proceedings of the "Corps Legislatif,"
by the pames and classification OF the
parties constituting the body. The
terms ''Right," "Left," "Right Centre"
&C., at first suggest an army organiza-
,ion instead of deliberative assembly:
The party of the extreme Right,
numbering about seventy-fve, are the
ultra-conservatives of France, men who
believe in upholding the Government
with the bayonet against opposition ana
resolution. The ''Extreme Left" a
small faction, are a eonglomerate OF en-
thusiasts for Republic, known as lie
publicans, Red Republicans, Democrats
and Socialists Democrats, Reconcllaoles
and Irreconcilables. Rochefort belongs
to them. The "Right Centre" are those
who go for the present Emperor and
"Liberty," of whom there are about 100
The ''Left Centre" so strong, are LIB
erals proper, sometimes called Constltu
tionalists. They acquiesce in tho "Em
pire with Liberty" and among theiI
number are the illustrious Nj. Guizot ano

Make Allowance for Children.

Children are much alike In their chil.
dish ways, IN every station Of lie. We
must not expect too much ot those In
the better walks of life. In our ci,v
schools, who're we have the children of
rich, or wcIl-tO-dO people, with scarcely
any poor among us, we become fas-
peculiaritins II seems reasonable to
expect the children of Christian parents
to appreciate, mere than others, the in-.
structions Of the Sabbath-school But
we have not found II 50 in our ,xI eri-
ence. Thus, when our petted. well.
dressed, and wcll-fcd children come in
from their comfortable homes. feeling
happy and independent, they are not
likely to be any more quiet and orderly
than would be The same number of lit
tie TOughs, in some out-of.the-way mis-.
sion-schOol. Perhaps the unusal at,en-
tion and newness oi the theme would bs
more appreciated and attractive to the
latter class. But we fail in patience
very often, for want Of reflection. We
know there is pleasuraIle excitement
in mingling with crowd in any place,
and this is one of the attractions which
swells our numbers, for many children
use their own pleasure about going to
Sunday y-school, which fact leaves an OBJ
legation on teachers to make their
teaching as pleasant as possible. Thus,
when a hundred or more children are
gathered in one room, looking into each
others joyous, familiar faces, it produces
on them f cling of excitement and hi
liarity, VIII ch Their reason is not yet
strong enough to repress.
Teachers, let patience have her perfect
work. We are doing much good in our
day TO the rising generation, who will
ere long bear our burden, and, we trust,
fill our places with more acceptability
than we do in the church of Christ on
earth.-S. :. Times.
