The London church, of which NJ. d. Con-
way is the pastor and Professor Tyndall "a
member, is said TO have a creed which is a
compound OF Judaic Christianity, Zoroas-
terism, Buddhism, Confucionismi and Ma
hommedanism. An impertinent newspaper,
which is evidently not posted on religious
gu itters, says this might be called Mosaic
christianity of Confusionism.

tired Of the political agitasors and with

COMMERCE WITH BRAZIL

The Missouri Democrat. paper which
comprehends more clearly than any other
in the upper valley che value Of she Span
ish-American trade, says:
The New Orleans papers are still urging
the establishment of a semi-mOnthly line Of
steamers, to ply between New Orleans and
Brazilian ports, and continue to present
glowing pictures of the trade which con be
attracted N this way
And thinks that
The proper efforts here might succsed in
exciting no little sympathy.
Why not? st. Louis has sn immense
population. She produces and exports
large values. What will she DO with
this industry or these values. The South
ern States can not consume them. st.
Louis and Chicago should unite in open
ing the mouth Of the Mississippi and
opening the ports beyond. Xhey would
thus secure adequate markets FOR their
vast surplus. There is to be convention
al ST. Louis in which the members Of
Congress representing the valley Of
the Mississippi are % consider che
commercial interests of their con
stituents. &C this convention New
Orleans with hef sister cities should be
present in the persons of able and well
informed delegations. The postal CON-
munication with Brazil and all other
countries south of New Orleans should be
pressed upon Congress. Modification Of
the treaties with che Spanish American
powers should be obtained, and COM
merce as nearly free and reciprocal az
possible should be procured from our
government. It is 20 be hoped New Or
leans will not be SO entirely absorbed an
the last election-or the nexs that her
leading men will not be SO estranged from
each othes as that shis subject will be
neglected, We invoke timely assensjon
to she subject.
