Religious Services in the Hall OF
the Keuse of Representatives.

It seems that the House Of Represen-
satives have declined opening their Hall
for religious services, on the Sabbath
The motion to allow its use for that pur-
pose, when desired by either the
Chaplain to the Senate or House, pre-.
sentcd by Mr.. Byas, having been laid
upon the table after quite n lengthy and
characteristic discussion. The Repubk-
can in reporting this, action, said it was
upon the request of "strolling guerrilla
preacher" that this action was taken |!
Being thus betraj ed into q mistake, tho
editor of the Rcpubzieaa oonfesses his
error in generous terms, and in doing
this, makes the following reference to
one of our citizens, in which our readers
may be interested
LAST week a paragraph appeared in
tho Columbia correspor' zee of this,
journal which We now dee. - regret. II
was stated that
"Somc member made motion to give
the use of the House of Representatives
to a strolling preacher now in tho city,
to see what he could do with TIE people
of Columbia"
Then followed comments on the de-
bate in the House on this motion. That
debate in the better recent light which
has come to us, we pronounce scaadalous,
indecent, totally unworthy of the repre-
sentatives Of Christian people.
We supposed that the motion really
referred to ga strolling preacher" as
said. Thus regarding it, We published
the comments, for the simple reason that
we do not believe that it is proper for
every strolling preacher to petition the
House for the use of their Hall for,
sad to say, some are in the strolling and
! ! preaching iino who are better fitted for
other business.
But we now learn that the motion
was really and simply relative to the
opening of the Hall for Sunday religious
services, to be conducted hv thA ne.
Dr. Webster, Chaplain of the Senate.
+ Tie motion was eminently proper in
itself; and as for Chaplain Webster, VIC
hasten to say that he is a noble, Chris
.;.@ gentleman. He was born in Ver-
mont, and received his degree Of A. NJ.
from Middleberry (yt.) College, and
his degree of d. d. from Alleghany Col.
lege, at Meadville, Pa. He was, for sew.
eral years, managing and responsible
editor of tho Vermont Christian Messen.
G r, secretary aud financial agent of the
State Bible Society, representing his
Conference in the General Conferences
He served as Chaplain in the Vernon,
Senate, and in the United States army
during the recent war. He is now Pre-.
siding Elder of the Charleston district
Of the South Carolina Conference, and
the President of the Clafiin University.
We repeat, the paragraph in question
never would have appeared in this jour.

FOR st. L0IIS DIRECT.

During the past week We had the
pleasure OF meeting Mr. F. d. Rich
ardson, formerly q Teche planter,
but now connected with st. Louis
business house. Mr. Richardson il
here in the interest of his adopted
city, and will use his best Efforts to
induce Attakapas planters to ship
produce to St. Louis direct, on n
line of steamers that will run to tie
mouth Of Red River from this place,
to connect with tire Carter line on
the Mississippi the pioneer of which
will be in our bayou this week. The
steamer We refer to is the Flirt, the
departure Of which from St. Louis,
We noticed in our last issue. This
steamer will come out loaded with
plantation supplies which will be
offered to our planters cheap.
Mr.. Richardson informs us that
this line will be maintained, and
every effort made to build up this
trade, the principal stock holders
being stsamboatmen and st. Louis
merchants.
The Flirt has, we learn, q full
cargo Of produce engaged for her
return trips, and Mr.. Richardson
expects to get more business for
her to do. He informed us that he
had assurances from Steamboat
owners tha' other steamers would
be put in the trade when tho busl-
ness would justify it.

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.

To THE EDlroR or The LoCrsr,xIAN.
DEAR Another year is draw
ing to i.s close, aud in takiuS = re-
prospective view of the events that
have chan acterized it, we find that
in innumeri,ble instances, it is one
long to be remembered. We could,
taking the events as they come
make record Of mimic history as
varied in transaction as any Of our
biographers have done, compare
lively speaking in ages past. Such,
however, is not our intent at present.
As . people We may be forgiven if
We wish only to note the progress
among our own since the right has
been ours, to compete with those
whose right it has been since the
dawn of existence to stand as men
in all the sndowments of moral,
mental and social improvement.
We do not pretend to say that
there has been as much progress
made among our people as there
might have been. We do not pre-
tend to say that every opportunity
afforded as for our advancement,
has been taken advantage Of. We
do not pretend to say that We have
done all in our power to perpetuate
ops peoples good. nor do we pre-
tend to say that tho heart Of every
black man has been true. loyal, and
answering to the party that made
him free! And here let me say.
although my article partakss scarcely
Of part of . political spirit, yet in
duty, yet in acknowledgment of our
obligations to the true Republican
party. That the black man who in
the face Of al he has suffered in
generations past. in the degradation
Of his manhood, in the low debasing
state Of servitude to which he has
been subjected and to which the
Democracy would still subject him,
in the face of deeds blscker than
oblivion's shade. that are only now
becoming obliterated by the sup
port and justice Of the Republican
party; who, with this noble party
on the one hand offering him all
the means and advantages that
crown him with the noble garb Of

their congratulations on his cleo

noticed several democrat Senators.
The vote of the anti-sdministra-

Death Of Lieutenant Gov. Dunn.

Ike Republican party OF Louisiana
has lost one of its ablest leaders.
His political career was Of Q charac-

of pride in the breast ofevery color

be may be said to have risen from
the lowest depth of degradation to
sminence and power, making for
our race another link in tho chain
of evidence Of the black mans capa-

tile has been the effort of more than
two centuries to imbrute the Afri-
can race upon this continent.

the so called lead paralysis, COM
mon among painters in the form OF
loss of motion of the wrist-joints,
is chiefly produced by the habit OF
washing the hands in turpentine.
1t is probable that it is not the tur-
pentine alone which produces this
fatal result, but chiefly the particles
of lead or zinc paint on the hands,
which, by the turpentine, are
brought in condition to penetrate
the skin more readily and to be alb
sorbed; therefore, painters should
avoid, as much as possible, the use
Of turpentine for washing the hand.
