The Church Journal, an English pub
location, illustrates it's Christian charity
in an obituary tribute to the late Mr..
Mill. in which it says:
''His philosophy, 30 called, was tho
roughly Christian; his sentiments
daringly misohievous and outrageously
wild. His death is no loss to anybody,
for he was rank but amiable infdel, and
most dangerous person. The sooner
those Sights OF thought, who agree with
him, go to the same place, the better
for both church and State. We can
we'll spare the whole crew of them, and
shall hear OF their departure, whether
one by one or in body, with calm satis-
faction
But if this be true, why wait for the
slow and uncertain hand of nature to re-
move all the remaining members of Mr..
Mills mental family? The flesh oi
heretics and dissenters in these days is
no more proof against the physical wea-
pons OF orthodoxy than it was in the
glorious time of the Sm;thfield fires.
1t is true that the dangerous persons. "
the misbelievers OF the frank but amia-
BILE" type of the late AIr. Mill. for whose
elimination the Church Journal 80 de-
voutly yearns, number, probably, in all
Christendom. good many millions.
But that makes them SO much the more
dangerous, and the FIRE and sword OF
theological hate and intolerance cannot
commence work upon them too soon.
The anxiety which the Administration
manifests to carry the approaching State
election in Virginia is not only indecent
but suspicious. A very large majority OF
the States are already under the rule OF
the Administration party, and the eager
ness which the Presidents ring betrays
to add Virginia to their conquests, looks
as If they were aiming to set up regime
where no opposition would dare to raise
it's head, and where no discussion OF
Cameron and Butler schemes would
make unpleasant Credit Mobilor revela-
tions. This greediness to stamp out all
opposition means something; it means O
good deal. and it certainly does not
mean an honest management OF public
affairs. So long as the people suffer IN
arrogant. over-bearing party to carry
out in the respective States the pro-
grammo which has debauched the State
Governments OF Louisiana and South
Carolina, 80 long will the plunderers
plan new schemes of public fraud and
peculation. An active minority is as ne
cessary for the public good as wise ma
jority.

Urbano Ratazzi. whose death is re-
ported, WAS born at Alessandria, on the
29th OF June, 1903. He was educated
at Government echool, stndied law and
practiced at the Turin Bar until 1888.
He was member of the ministry OF
Charles Albert, in 1848, and in the fol-
lowing year member of the Sardiniap
tarliamant. In 1852, he was made Pre-.
sident OF the G amber. After a brilliant
career in Italian politics, he succeeded,
in 1867, Signor Ricasoli as the head of
the ministry, but retired in October of
the same year. For the past three years.
he has led the "Opposition, ;" and was
considered one OF the most eloquent az.
ponents Of it's opinions.

LoUIs1ANA.-Someo of the leading Ra-
dicsls admit that Louisiana has been de-
voted to ruin. A prominent Govern
ment official said. the other day, that he
regarded tho future of South Carolina,
Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana as
almost hopeless, and Louisiana as the
worst OF all. The New York Times calls
for new Legislature. to be composed of
the members returned by both returning
boards as elected. This is the same
compromise that was rejected by the
Plnohback party, last winter, and it is
probably suggested now in order to get
rid OF the disgrace OF having the mulatto
Pinchback in the Senate, and to mako
room for the Presidents brother-in.law

and broke up twenty.sove, acres of
ground, and left it ready for planting.
There is something practical in that
kind OF grange work, and it has smack
OF brotherly kindness in it that would
make most any half-decent man want to
be farmer and granger.

To love nature and respect her laws, is
the beginning Of wisdom. The expert
ences OF life should always be purely
normal. The blood bears the same re-
lation to physical life as thought to the
spiritual; and neither should ever be-
como perturbed through appliances not
lawful-immoral, unhealthy. By the
exercise of this care, you will be relieved
from the dread of chimeras dire-re-
moved from passion, frenzy, fear. So
life will remain the pure, crystal river OF
our childhood; flowing evenly on, its
waters always musical and sweet, MUIR
muring down the declivities of age,
where, daily, nature becomes perennial
and life immortal. From our sufferings
the soul gathers wisdom and growth, but
without may be wise and grow, if reared
out Of the shadow of sin. There WAS
never pang or pain, regret or care, sor-
row or despond in the world but sin
brought it. Only where it's shadow falls,
suffering abides; and there, through ex-
piation, removes the stain, while, az tho
darkness lifts, the soul expands into
light, as il no sin had fallen. Let suoh
of us as may, alas! how few, be wise and
avoid sin; and for Us who cannot, there
remains patience under suffering, and
thankfulness for the most obvious OF di.
vine mercies-the wisdom and growth it
bestows. With all these come blessings
without number; and at the close, the
heavenly benedictions cover us as a tree
is clothed with it's fruit in the time of
ripeness and harvest.

The execution VI Henry McNulla at
Peoria on Friday last, for the murder of
his wife, has caused unusual excitement,
no. only in the vicinity of the TRANSACTION,
bu. throughout the state. Public opinion
rs not united upon tho question OF his
quit; many are disposed to think that he
should not be convicted, while Others, and
probaly majority of those who have
been familiar with the facts, are con-
vinced that bad man met a Just fate for
| an inhuman crime. The evidence which
led TO his conviction was only circumstar-
tlal. From the time OF his arrest to the
moment when the signal was given 10y the
eXecutioner Tor the Initial drop, he asserted
bis innocence and declared that he was
being judcslly murdered" AT noon of
the day Of his execution, and as the last
act IN his cell before leaving it for the
scanold, he addressed u letter 10 the gov.
ernor, in which, among other things, he
said:

be Judged by just God, / deem it only
proper that | should write you few
words before my death, in order that the

served ignominy that is to-day inflicted
on me in the name Of law.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION,

Several bills comprising the principles
Of compulsory education are now before
the general assembly. The most promi =
nent Of these is that introduced by Mr..
Shaw of Carroll county, the general feat.
IRE, Of whose bill, says the Illinois State
Journal, are as follows:
Section one makes it the duty Of every
person having under his control child or
children, to send the same to the public
school NJ least twelve weeks in the year,
six weeks Of which shall be- consecutive;
under penalty of twenty dollars for
each failure to comply with the provisions
of the law.
Section two provides that this penalty
shall not be incurred in cases whero the
party so neglecting was not able by reason
of poverty to send such child to school or
to furnish necessary clothing and school,
books for tho scholar; or that
such child has been kept in any
other than tho public schools for
tho requisite time, where tho required
branches are taught; or where the pupil
has already acquired the branches required
to be taught or where the child is being
taught a aforesaid by private tutors, in.
structors of governesses; or that his bodily
or mental condition is such that his at.
tendance at school cannot tske place.
Sections three and four provide for the
collections and disposition of the zines
imposed by the foregoing sections, per-
uniting them to be used to purchase books
for poor children. or to be applied as any
other schoolfund.
