SCIENCE is the element in which great
things fashion themselves together !;
that.at length they may emerge, full
rrned and majestic, into the daylight
b life, which they are thenceforth to
rule. Not William the silent only, but
ell the considerable men I have known,
and the most undiplomatic and unstra-
getic of these fCrebore to babble of
what they we're creating and pro-
iecting. Nay, in thy own mean per-
plexities, do thou thyself but hold thy
tongue for one day, on the morrow
how much dearer are thy purposes and
duties what wreck and rubbish have
those mute workmen within thee swept
away, when intrusive noises were shut
out Speech is too often, not as the
Frenchman defined it, the art of con-
cealing thought, but of quite sitting
and suspending it, so that there is none
10 conceal. Speech, too, is great, but
not the greatest. Speech is silvern, ST.
Iance is golden; or, as I might rather
express il, speech is Of time, silence Of
eternity. = Carlyle.

The Negro in Louisiana.

On Saturday a Louisiana court mulcted
the owners of a steamboat plying in the
waters of that State $1,000 for refusing 20 a
negro woman who applied for . passage
similar accommodations to those given to
white passengers. This is the first decision
made under the new State law IN relation
to common carriers, and as precedent is
important in two respects: first, it will tend
to prevent determinations on the part Of
transportation companies between passen-
gers on account Of color: and second, it will
encourage negroes TO demand and assist
them in obtaining their legal rights.
The atrocious Grant parish massacre-an
act of absolute butchery which, had it hap
pened during the war, would have caused
paroxy SINS Of horror and rage in every part
of the country-shows plainly enough the
position occupied by the negro in Louisiana.
The senseless hatred felt for him by many
of his white ncighbors must be extirpated
in some way before sound peace can be
restored in that State. and the very best
method is that of depending upon the en-
forcement of the laws. The change to be
effected is largely social one, and from the
nature of the case will take place slowly.
But as iudicious step toward a most desir-
able result, the decision on SATURDAY is note
wOrthy.-4Netc York Post.
