The INDUSTRY OF INTEREST No
blister. says Beecher, draws sharper
than interest does. OF all Indus
tries none is comparable to that of
interest. IL works all day and
night. in fair weather and foul. II
has no sound in its footsteps. but
travels fast. Ii gnaws at a man ;
substance with invisible teeth. 1t
binds industry with its film. as a fly
is bound in n spiders web. Debts
roll man over and over. binding
hand and foot. and letting him hang
upon the fatal mesh until long-leg-
ged interest devours him. There
as but one thing on a farm like it.,
and that Is the Canada thistle, which
swarms new plants every time you
break its roots, whose blossoms are
prolific. and every flower the father
of million seeds. Every leaf is an
awl, every branch spear. and every
plant like platoon of bayonets,
and field of them like an armed
host. The whole plant is torment
and vegetable curse. And vet n
farmer had better make his bed of
Canada thistles than TO attempt to
be at ease upon interest.

Tomatoes owe not little of their
consumption to the notion that they
are healthy. Latterly this has been
questioned. DIR. Dio Lewis pro-
nounces them unhealthyas an article
uf food. Occasionally and in very
small quantity, the cooked vege-
tables may be taken without notable
injury. But raw tomatoes should
be banishad from the table. They
give heartburn and other indications
of digestive arrangement. Speak
ing of eating, the doctor denounces
the dyspeptic American fashion of
taking drinks at meals, whether wine,
water or tea, or coffee or soups
above all, ice water. The gastric
juice is enfeebled by such dilution,
and digestion is retarded. Some
take supper with impunity, but to
most people it is the nightmare
meal.

MEDICAL QUALITIES OF PUMPKINS

MEDICAL QUALITIES OF PUMPKINS.
"A prominent physician of New
York City speaking OF the properties
of pumpkins, saws that in his travels
in Syria he found pumpkin seeds
almost universally eaten bv the peo-
pie for their supposed medical quail
tiles. Not because they are diuretic:
but as an antidote against animal
culie, which invest the bowels.
They are sold in the streets as nuts
and apples are here. 1t is said to he
a medical fact that persons have been
cured of tape-worm by the use of
pumpkin seeds. The outer skin be-
ing removed. the seeds are bruised
in a morter into an oily, pasty mass.
1t is swallowed by the patient after
fasting some hours, and it takes the
place of chyle i'll the stomach, and
the tape-worm lets go its hold ON
the membrane and becomes gorged
with this substance. and, in some
measure, probably torpid. Then a
large dose of castor oil is admins
tered, and the worms are unable to
renew their hold.

A REGRET.

I met the maiden that loved
one evening on the lea;
And save n pccping star or two,
All by ourselves were we.
The silken moths flew round about,
And softly moved the air,
But softer on my shoulder fell
The fiutter of her hair.
Md so we walked an hour or more;
How swiftly the minutes sped
And then we parted-well-a-day,
What might not have saids
IN ct the maiden that loved
One sweet May-morn again,
And save the happy sabbath bells,
No sound was in the lane.
But when looked her in the face
So fast the bushes flew.
No wild-rosc blossom in the Spring
Had ever such hue.
Aud so we wandered toward the church
How swiftly the minutes sped
And then we parted-wcll-a-day,
What might I not have said
| met the maiden that loved
Once more IN after years,
And rs she passed me in the street
scarce could look for tears.
For by her side a stranger walked.
And she might be- his bride
But oh! she smiled not a. of yore,
cur darling village pride.
Then most thought Of one still eve,
Of one May-morn how sped,
And how we parted wcll-a-day,

At Oxford some twenty years ago
n tutor in one of the colleges limped
in his walk. Stopping one day last
ummer mt railway station he was
accosted by well-known politician
who, recognizing him, asked him if
he was not the Chaplain at the col
lege at such time. The doctor re-
piled that he was. II was there, y
said the interrogator, "and / knew
you by your limp" "Well,' said
the doctor, lit seems that my limp
ing made more impression on you
than my preaching" ''Ah, doctor, !"
was the reply, with ready wit, 'it is

The Montreal (Canadal Gazette,
writing of Bismarck's abrogation of
Prussia's agreement to respect
French vessels carrying no contra
band cargoes, says: The utter
shamelessness of the manner in
which Bismarck violates all the en-
gagements which he had entered
into with view to protecting him
self in case of defeat when the war
first commenced, is almost too dis
graceful even for Bismarck himself. -

CHIEFTAINs WITHOUT FOLLOWERS.

The Highlander in one of SCOTS novels,
who was so mortified because his chief
tain appeared before an Englishman with
out 'his tail on, " in other words, without
the attendant clansmen who usually fol-
lowed him, involuntarily gave expression
to a great political truth, namely-that the
importance of a public man, politically
speaking, is proportional to the number of
his followers. While he can maintain the
position of leader, can persuade men that
by adopting his views and carrying out
his plans they can best secure certain
great political results, or taking mar
rover view of politics) that by adhering to
his interests they can best secure their own
while he can carry his ward, or his town,
or his county, or his State, or his Sec
ton, he shines with light not his own,
reflected from the lesser Zig hts which sur
round him, he has weight, power, infiu-
ence; he can dictate terms, name his
price Gf purchasable), lead his party on
to victory, if patriotic. But it is his fol-
lowers that give. him his value De-
serted by them, he is like the highland
chieftain without his tail on, an ordinary
man. And if this is true of party lead
ers in large sense, how much more SO
of such factionists as spring from the
prolific soil of party success, and gather
around them small bands of personal

whose strength could only be maintained
by united action under the government
of their choice. The dangers of weak
government had been experienced
under Democratic rule, and Re-
publican President could be afforded
no protection in reaching the capital OF
his country, where he had been called by
his countrymen to take the helm of State.
Rebellious spirits swarmed the land and
threatened destruction to the government
and people who maintained it, while the
Democratic administrators had rendered
it too weak to enforce order or obedience
to the laws. Under this weak Democratic
government the country was fast drifting
into anarchy and rebellion, when Re-
publican President reached the capital in
spite Of the red handed-assassins, who had
lain in his path to prevent his reaching
there. He took the oath of Office and en-
tered upon his duties, determined to save
the republic if the people would aid him.
of government should be-strong to enforce
its laws-had right to be the strongest
government upon earth for this purpose
and ne was supported by the people. Mr..
Lincoln lived to see the rebellion SUBJ
dued-but the same evil spirit that had
attacked his country and waylaid him
when he was endeavoring to reach its
capital, induced the assassin to take his
life just at time when he was assured
that the life of the nation was safe. A
strong government in the interest of free
dom united the friends of liberty and
made them strong for the further work of
rebuilding what weak government and
an anti-Republican feeling had suffered
to fall into decay.
Governor Hoffman is well aware of all
these things-of all that has taken place
since the Republicans rendered the gov
eminent strong enough to save the people
from the horrors of slavery and disunion,
and place them once upon the high road
of peace, prosperity and permanent free
dom. Yet, for the purpose of reinstating
the Democrats in power, he tells the peo-
ple-who know better-that the political
question now before them is whether, in
the future, they are to be the subjects of a
strong government, or shall continue to
be strong people. This is, indeed, the
vilest of Demo cratic subterfuge.

partisans, held together by no bond bu
that of self-interest- greed on one sid'
and patronage ON the other. Arrogatine
for their faction the name of the politica
party, which they misrepsent. and pre-
tending to identify it's great interests
with their own petty ones, these self
seeking mischief-makers scruple not tc
endanger by their squa billings and
wranglings the success of principles Of
national importance.
Such are the principles involved in the
continued supremacy of the Republican
party in Louisiana, supremacy which
would be seriously endangered by di-
vision in the ranks of that party. And yet
such division is threatened by the fac
tious disputes of the two cliques now
struggling for the mastery in the ap-
preaching party reorganization. We say
the division is threatened-but threatened
only-not accomplished. The Repub-
lican party in this State, with majority
of ever twenty thousand votes, and COM
posed of earnest men who understand
the interests involved in the mainten-
ance of that majority, contains too
much intelligence in its ranks to
permit itself to be disrupted in the inter-
ests of any man or any set of men. The
importance of Louisiana to the national
interests of the Republican party is too
great to be risked, that this or that clique
may carry point. The question is one
of unity or defeat; for if the representa-
tives of the State government and those of
the national government, who are now
contending for the control of the party,
should continue fighting each other,
''each class having their own axes to
grind, and each more anxious to accom-
plish their own ends than to strengthen
the party against the common enemy; if
the division, which is now limited to the
interested leaders, should so spread as to
amount to an actual split, Louisiana is
lost But, as we have already said, this
will not be permitted; for if the contend
ing factions do not open their eyes
to the exigencies of the situation,
and resolve right speedily to adjust their
differences on an amicable basis, it may
happen that the difficulty will be taken
out of their hands and so adjusted as to
leave them no means with which to main
tain the conflict. Third parties may
arise, favored by happy auspices, and so
reofganize the party as to leave the would
be-autocrats of the Republican party in
this State powerless for good or ill
chieftains without followers.

Christian truth can not Ill its nature be
progressive. A fundamental tenet of the
Christian church is the same at the pres
ent day as it was when st. Paul preached
to the Athenians. But the progress of
knowledge, and the expansion of ideas
constantly going on, enables men at the
present hour to act with greater advan-
tages and effect in the spreading of moral
influences than they could have done
years ago. Hence it is not invidious to
say that a present organization for bene-
violent purposes will effect much more
good in given time than a similar asso-
citation Of a former period; the Christian
earnestness being the same in both in
stances, and the only difference arising
from improvement of ideas.
No one denies that Cotton Mather was
after his fashion a sincere, honest Chris
tian; yet he advocated the death of old
women for alleged witchcraft. Could any
clergyman be found at the present day
who would not condemn the ideas of
Mather? Within the memory of men
living, all Protestant denominations but
one condemned the church organ as an
abomination of idolatry; yet now all
these very denominations use the church
organ in their public worship. Yet their
predecessors were not the less Christians
because their ideas had not reached the
expansion of the present day.

THE REPUBLICAN PRESS OF LOUISIANA.

The conductors of the Republican press
of the State will assemble in convention
to-day, for the purpose of consultation
upon matters of material interest COM
mon to the newspaper men. There are
now in Louisiana about fifty Republican
journals, conducted with more or less
ability, and capable of welding in the
aggregate a powerful, if not controlling
influence in the State. The Republican
press is a modern institution here. When
the New Orleans REPUBLICAN was estab-
ished, but little more than four years
ago, there was, we believe, only one out
spoken, fearless, intelligent Republican
newspaper in all the country parishes.
We refer to the Homer lidd, pub
ished in Claiborne parish. Our staunch,
answering friend, Jasper Blackburn, still
continues to let his light shine, though
on two several occasions he has been
mobbed by his amiable neighbors, and
more recently suffered total loss from
accidental fire He and we have, how
ever, had the pleasure of seeing spring up
around us, in the country and in this city,
fully half hundred co-workers, and we
have noted with satisfaction the slow but
sure progress made in the work of public
enlightenment. From a small beginning,
then, and in spite of opposition of the
most determined character, the Re-
publican press has developed into
powerful estate in the common
wealth, and it has by no means
as yet attaided its maximum of influence
and usefulness. As means, however, of
concentrating and utilizing the energies
of the conductors, the convention to-day
will be an important agent. The whole
action will be, of course, advisory.
Nothing that may be done will be, strictly
speaking, legally or morally binding upon
the members, but yet judicious action
can not fail to have its proper influence
for good in the future The gentlemen
who meet together to-day will freely inter-
change their views, and both give and re-
ceive instruction and useful hints for the
promotion of the general welfare.

That politicians sometimes resort to
''ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain" is past denying. The latest and
coolest dodge that has been brought to
our attention is the rumored appointment
of delegates to the approaching party con-
vention by certain so-called parish COM
mittees, who hold authority, not from the
Republicans of their respective parishes,
but by appointment from the State Cen
trail Committee. The latter body, to be-
gin with, has no such power of appoint
ment, and the matter as it stands, lays

Mr.. Henry Selby has been appointed a
deputy collector of customs at the port of
Duluth, Minnesota, under the act of 1866,
which allows the appointment of deputy
collectors at ports of delivery at the discre-
ton of the Secretary of the Treasury, where
the interests of commerce justify such ap-
pointment, with the same powers as are en-
joyed by collectors at ports which are ports
of entry by law. The deputy collector at
Duluth is subordinate to the collector at
Marquette, to whom he executes bond for
the faithful discharge of his duties.
