REMARKABLE SCENE.

A remarkable scene occurred in
the British House of Lords two or
three weeks ago. In the British
Parliament, n member Of the House
of Commons who becomes bank
rupt thereby loses his scat if he
does not pay up within n twelve
month; and bankrupt peer is ut
terly disqualified from sitting,
voting or speaking in the House
of Lords. On discharging his
Indebtedness, however, a bankrupt
peer becomes rehabilitated. These
provisions are of recent introduce
ton; formerly, Parliament was a
favorite refuge for impecunious
aristOcrats who wished to avoid
the unpleasant attentions of the
bailiffs. A victim to the new rules
in the House Of Lords, Lord De
Maulary, who had been compelled
to vacate his seat, having paid his
creditors, and, produced a certifi-
cate from the Court Of Bankruptcy
to that effect, on motion of the Lord
Chancellor, has been reinstated in
his privileges as a peer, with all
the formalities due to SO important
an event. This was the first oc-
currence of such q ceremony in
that body.

A holy life is made up of num-
Der of small things. Little words,
not eloquent speeches or sermons;
little deeds, not miracles, nor bat
ties, nor one heroic act, .nor mighty
martyrdom, make up the true
christian life. The little constant
sunbeam, not the lightning; the
waters of Sloan, ''that 90 SOFTLY"
in their mock mission of refresh
ment, not "the waters of the river,
great and many" rushing down
in torrent noise and force, are the
true symbols of q holy life. The
avoidance of little evils, little sins,
little inconsistencies, little weak
nesses, little follies, little indiscre-
tions and imprudences, little
fol bles, little indulgences of self
and of the flesh; the avoidance of
such little things as these goes far
to make up at least the negative
beauty of life.

The other day citizen of Hart
ford went to dentist, accorapani-
ed by a friend, to have q tooth
extracted. His power of endur-
ance not being of the strongest
character, he took ether. After
the operationd was performe, and
he was beginning to regain con
sciousness, he asked his friend,
''Where am IT' You are In Jail
for killing your wife" g In jail for
killing my wife? / always thought
it would come to that?''

FRIDAY, JUNE 81, 1872.
THE SAVING CREED.
The world is yexed with many creeds,
Nor bettered in their holding,
When dogmas blossom not in deed,
A better life unfolding,
What shall it make that believe
The Bible, or just Nature;
IL, with their lessons, receive
No growth Of NOR al stature:
a hundred articles OF faith,
On Bonded knes repeated,
May be but wearied, wasted breath,
by life's diseords defeated.
Though God and Christ are in my creed
And life, or death, forever,
This-lnaY be mine through sinful greed
That-through its conquests neyeri
1 will not, then, of creeds make boast.
Which every lip may fashion;
Nor let my soul be torn and tossed
BY fierce polemic passion.
Enough, that I this faith maintain,
Which God within me teaches;
Who conquers self through Christ and
pain,
The Life Eternal reaceesi

The Young Literature of Russia Stunted.

A correspondent of the London
Times, speaking of the re-establsh
meut of the Press censorship in Russia,
contends that its effect will be to stunt
"the Young and promising literature
of that country. Under the Imperial
decree lately issued, the only portion
of the Russian press exempt from the
supervision of the administrative au-
thouties has been deprived of its eX
ceptional privilege and hand d over to
the tender mercies of the police. Hith-
erto, under the law of April Is, 1865,
the editors of all periodicals We're left
the option of having their copy re-
vised by the Government, or of pub
fishing without this preliminary ordeal
The like privilege extended to the
authors of original works above 100
pages. and to the compilers of transla-
tious above $50 pages; 50 that the
only manus ripts which were absolute
ly required to be inspected by that
august parsonage, the public censor,
were books and TRANSACTIONS below the
size mentioned.
Under the new decree, copies of un-
licensed reviews and books Will be sent
in to the administrative authorities
alone. the term within which an order
for suppression may be issued, being
extended from two days to four days in
the case of reviews, and from three
davs to seven days in the case of books.
Ii is not too much TO say that if the
law had been proclaimed six years ago,
4 large and most valuable portion of
Russian literature would not have APP
peared in print. No author will run
the risk of having serious a well-di-
gested volume mutilated Just before
issue: no publisher will dare print an
expensive book to see 1t condemned to
the flames by secret and irresponsible
tribunal when ready Both VIII prefer
submitting the manuscript to the CEN
sor's preliminary inspection; but how
many manuscripts are likely to leave
the geusor's room unscathed.

 TRANSFERS CAMP, December 26
 1 have been constant reader of your valuable paper from its first issue 10 the present, and I think 1t would be of public interest to give you few items relating to Mexican affairs on the Lower Gila for the past year.
 By Mexican thefts, Yuma County will lose about $30. 1000 in taxable per sonal property, which would remain and increase if there were security against outlaws. The parties owning cattle are driving them out of the Ter ritory. Our losses have been as fol- lows:
 Hornsley $ Keene, 500 cattle and ten horses and mules; J. G. Tomp- kius, 100 cattle and two horses !; Shakly & Ashby, 75 cattle; Bailey & Kennedy 35 cattle, bur mules and one horse; and other parties about 200 head of horses, cattle and mules. All these within distance of eighty miles between Stanwix and Gila City. The estimated loss by these outlaws is low.
 Every dollar I have in the world is invested in Arizona, in stock, station, and Gila Bend Ditch stock. My in terest is with the Territory, and 1 am doing all 1 can to forward the farm ing interests of the Gila. Can you help us to better security? With security to life and property, I could induce several families in the east to come and settle on the Gila. We have the Apache busi- ness in the right hands, and I hope the present Congress will force the Republic of Mexico to turn over her murderers and robbers of our people to the U. $. Government. It is an outrage upon the American people of Arizona to let these thieves and assas- sins go without punishment.

We are of the opinion that neither Yuma county nor the Governor will ever have cause to re- gret this appointment.
