sassination, and thefts, and intrigues in
Vulnerable have been carried out under
this VOW of obedience, the Protestant is
at least excusaole for regarding the res
ervation with suspicion Obedience is
enforced by system of espionage which
is almost absolutely perfect. Every officer
OF the order has his shadow. The higher
his ot1lce the more closely he is watched.
And the general has not only the monthly
or quarterly reports from every subordi-
nate, but also reports concerning him
from spies who watch with alert suspicion
avery act and movement.
1t is the combination of these two
principles which has made the order of
Jesuits such power in the church, and
not unfrequently such menace to society
and government. The operations of all
It's members are secret and their allie
glance is aVowedly FIRST % the society,
afterwards to the government under
which they live.

receive from 3 general, who owes nc
allegiance to the country, and who is

1t should be added that the Jesuits are
not distinguished by any peculiar dress
or peculiar practices. They are permitted
to mix with the world and to conform to
its habits, if necessary, fer the attainment
OF their ends. Their widest iu-
fiuence has been exerted in politica!

DICKIE'S SONG.

The cold winds blew around our home
The day was dark and chill,
And little birdie in his cage,
Was very sad and still;
In silence ate his dainty food
And turned his winking eyes
Up through his little wiry cage
To dark and cloudy skies.
He could not see the bright sunshine,
And not note would sing,
But sat with feathers rutt1ed up
Or head beneath his wing.
But when the day was nearly DER
The heavy clouds gave way,
And bright the golden rays of sun
Lit up the closing day.
When birdie saw the bright sunshine
He gladly plumed his wings,
And loudly sang his sweetest song,
And danced on perch and swings.
His merry song made others glad,
The baby in his glee
Soon caught the BRIDES happy mood
And laughed right merrily.
And thus one happy little bird
Brought sunshine in our home,
The 10Y that filed his little breast
Was felt by every one.
WHY then should timid little bird
Fer grieVe or cease his songs?
The sun behind the darkest cloud
Is shining all day long.

TOMORROW.

To-day can sing OF yesterday,
Songs tender, tinct with sorrow
But mute she comes along the way
All beautiful tomorrow
Her face is full of prophesies
Her lips have still witholden,
And gazing in her radiant eyes,
Song turns to silence golden.
Hope rapt beside her pathway stands,
Asks nothing but the vision.
And turns at night with empty hands,
Still dreaming Of fruition:.
All, beauty soon as present, gone,
Most fleet and most begulling;
Why are our hearts forever drawn
By that strange, far off smiling ?
WHY is it that from new delays
New faith they still can borrow?
oh, is it that among the days
Comes heavens first good'morroW
She will come in with no alarms,
Under this same low portal,
And clasp us as in mortal arms,
And we shall turn immortal!

TRIAL BY JURY IN ENGLAND--AN
IMPORTANT CHANGE PROPOSED.
From the New York Sun. I

A select committee of the House of
Commons has just been appointed to con-
slider and report upon an important bill
in relation to trial by jury in civil and
criminal cases, which, ii it becomes a law,
will effect considerable alteration in the
long established SYSTEM of Jury trials
through which English judicature has de-
rived so much distinction. A law of
somewhat similar design was enacted
about two years ago, but it's language was
so confused and uninteiligible that the
judges publicly declared their inability
to understand il. There is no want of
clearness, however, as to the principal
proposition contained in the present bill
This is TO reduce the number of Jury,
men, in all cases except trials for murder,
from twelve to seven. In behalf of this
change it is practically impossible to Sc
cure the agreement OF twelve persons upon
the intricate questions 80 frequently in
volved in commercial suits but the Pail
NaII Gazette well suggests that in such
cases even seysn jurors will be about as
likely to disagree as twelve.
But it is in reference to crImipal trials
that the most serious and determined op,
position, to the proposed diminution is
expected. Indeed, it seems to US that by
retaining the old number of twelve Jurors
in murder cases, the trainers of the bill
confess the weakness Of any arguments
advanced in favor of the change so far as
other criminal causes are concerned. We
cannot assume that there is no reason for
adhering to ths number at present requir
ed in trials Of murder; and what reason
can there be except that certainty of a
correct determination is moro likely to be
attained thereby? But surely there is
no criminal case. however comparatively
insignificant the penalty which follows
conviction may be, In which it is not our
duty to use every available means toward
this end and if a greater number Of tri
ers tends in the least to secure more like
liheod Of g just decision in capital case,
its tendency will be the same on the trial
fan alleged hen thief Justice or injustice,
so far as relates to the determination Of
guilt or innocence, is in no wise affected
by the punishment provided by law for
the offence under investigation.
There is gradually increasing hostili-
ty to the Institution Of trial by jury IN
England on the part Of certain inf1uen~
tial lawyers and writers, which we regret
to observe. Prominent among its oppo~
nents is the learAed Westminster Re
0jet0. Something of the same sort of OPP
position is manii ested here in the DISPOSE
ton oil our State Legislatures continually
to modify and amend the jury laws. For
tunately, however, the invlolabiIity of the
right Of Trial by jury is secured in this
State by the Constitution and the pro-
cess of altering the fundamental law is
always so slow that no change in respect
to this individualright can be made with
cut the fullest public discussion and the
approval of the people. This fact rem
dsrs it certain, in our opinion, that no es-
sential change will be- made.
