Says the Shreveport SoutAresterm:

But few of our citizens have any idea
of the extent Of the cost of pauperism in
this section. There il NO provision within
. radius of 1t least one hundred miles Of
this city for the care Of the INDECENT sick,
and the consequence 10 this place is made
the headquarters as it were for all the
needy and afflicted of large section.
In addition to the heavy cost to the city
and parish, since 1867 we have received, in
the aggregate, about 81, 900 from the State,
not counting the appropriation to the char
ity hospital. As the contract with the city
in6rmary will expire on the first of January
next we hope that our parochial and city
authorities viii unite upon some systematic
and economic plan to provide for the poor
and needy. How this can best he done We
leave 20 the authorities to decide. But, and
we express the opinion with diffidence, it
seems to Us that while the charity hospital
is under way it would be better and cheaper
to rent . building and provide the neces-
sary medical stores, which could be tur ned
over to the hospital upon its completion.

Walter Scott on Printing.

Sir Walter Scott, in his great histor-
ical novel of "Quentin Durward5
finds an opportunity to pay fine
tribute Of the art of printing. In the
magnificent scene where Louis XI. in
PRODUCES Quentin to the splendid apart
ment of the learned Galeotti, that he
may learn from the planets the future
destiny of the young soldier, they find
the famous astrologer surrounded by
all the instruments of science, and
poring over a printed book. King
Louis, who instantly recognizes the
specimen of the new art, asks with
surprise how one, before whom the
heaven had unrolled her celestial vol
umes, could descend to an interest in
the new-fashioned art of multiplying
manuscripts by machinery. The seer,
in all the dignity of his great knowl-
edge, answers the king; "My brother,
believe me that, in considering the con-
seqences of this invention, l read with
certain augury, as by any combina-
ton of the heavenly bodies, the most
awful and portentous changes. When
I reflect with slow and limited supplies
the stream of science hath hitherto de-
scended TO us; how difficult to be OBJ
tanned by those most ardent in its
search; how certain to be neglected
by all who regard their ease; how liza
BILE to be diverted, or altogether dried
up by the invasion of barbarism can
l look forwarded without wonder and
astonishment to the lot of succeed
ing generation, OH whom knowledge
will descend like the first and second
rain, uninterrupted, unabated, un-
bounded; fertilizing some grounds,
and overAowing others; changing the
whole form of social life establishing
and overthrowing religions; erecting
and destroying kingdoms. But not in
our time, my royal brother, will these
changes come; this new invention may
be likened to young tree, which is
now planted, but shall, in succeeding
generations, bear fruit as fatal, yet as
precious, as that of the Garden OF
Eden; the knowledge, namely, of good
and evil"
The scene is admirably conceived,
for it must be remembered that Louis,
although the slave of the superstitions
of his day, was a man of keen inteli.
gence; that he is believed to have ex-
ercised his personal influence to liber
ate Faust from the prison in which h,
had been thrown on the charge of hav
ing magically produced manuscripts o
absolutely identical appearance anC
that he afterwards despatched Jenson
the artist from the royal mint, to sudy
the art in its cradle, the city of Mentz
Jenson, the apt pupil of Schoeffer
would have prosecuted his art in Paris
but that the death of Louis deprived
him Of his expected assistance; and
finding a warmer welcome in Venice
he added his fame to the literary glor,
of that great city.-Pristers Circular

Undue Familiarity.

One of the great faults in modern
manners is the habit of undue and i'm
proper familiarity. Some of the
cleverest of men fall into the way OF
squeezing hands in the most violent
manner, of slapping even their seniors
on the back, and other rude modes
emphasizing their familiarity and as
suming a close proximity of person
quite uncomfortable to persons of good
breeding and taste. Others again have
an offensive and familiar habit of
using personalities, displying knowl-
edge Of intimate and strictly private
matters which one would scarcely care
to have known to ones particular
friends, much less the subject of rude
and unmannerly conversation by COM
parative strangers.

Pats Colt.

A gentleman who favors US with
some "reminiscences respecting the ear
ly settlement of old Derryheld, N. h.,
relates the following anecdote:
When my grandfather resided at
Gofstown and Der1y6eld, then settled
by the Irish, he hired wild sort OF an
Irishman to work on his farm. One
day soon after his arrival, he told HIM
to take a bride and go out in the
field and catch the black colt. Don't
come W Mt him." said the old gen.
tleman. trick started and was gone
some tim. out as last returned with
out a bride, with his face and hand
badly scratched, as though he had re-
ceived bad treatment.
"Why, Patrick, what is the matterr
What in the world ails your
"An' faith, isn't it me, your honor,
that never will catch the old black
colt again2 Bad luck to himl An
didn't he all but scratch the eyes out OF
nv head? An faith as true as my
shoulders are my own, l had to climb
up the tree after him :,
"Climb a tree after himi Nonsense!
Where is the beast 2"
can it's tied to the tree he is to be
shure, yer honor"
We all followed Patrick to the spot
to get a solution of the difficulty, and
on. reaching the field we found, to our
amazement, that he had been chasing
a young bear, which he succeeded In
catching after great deal of rough
usage on both sides, and actually ueo
