Mr. Schaus, we are glad to say, has been at con.

novelty were sky and an atmosphere Of which no
reasonable person could complain. Among the
new things now at mis- store are 1.-THE Bather's At

James Scott; ''The Shadow OF the Cross" the
original OF which was painted by Phil R. Morris |;
'The Strawberry GIRL" after Sir Joshua Reynolds,
engraved BY Samuel Cousins; ''Romeo and Juliet"
etched by Il. MITCHELL after L. +. Dicksee,
and "Great Expectations" after Lejeune. There Is
also an exquisite engraving by Thomas L. Akin
son (engraver Of "Peace" and "War'' and other
celebrated works after Sir Edwin Landseer) Of
'Lady Godlva," from the original picture which
attracted such vast admiration In the International
Exhibition Of 1871. by J. Van Lerus, President Of

"Persons,n said the ecclesiastical lawyer, "whO

Here are the papers connected with them. This
is the truth about them. Two children, living in

Young Armand Wallet is the son Of Alsatian
parents long established in Paris. His father Is an
upholsterer residing at No. SO Rue Trufault at Ba
tignoles. The boy Is thirteen years DID, and he had
suffered Tor long time from acute rheumatic az
lection, which attacked him every winter and which
gradually disappeared with the return OF warm
weather.
In the month Of January Of the present year his
sunerngs were most intense, and they continued
to increase for six weeks During the last fort
night OF that period Armand Wallet lost the use Of
his limbs and was carried in and out Of bed. His
state OF health was also complicated by nervous
disorder and commissions. On the 18th OF Febru-

was at its height and the boy appeared TO be at

The materialists should really consider this; the
apostles OF cheap education should understand by
this time that
GOD Is ONE OF THE PARTY.
He has ordained that His Church shall obstinatey
persist In opening free schools.
Moreover, when the Church is thwarted in this
work, and cannot open enough free schools, either
from want Of money to provide masters or because
experimental governments decide that man shall
be taught alone by penny papers in their own
interests; when the great Of the earth no longer
preach the Gospel to the poor, and when immortal
souls Deginto languish in this oppressive silence,
God interviews and speaks Himself. He reveals
Himself to the oppressed souls and raises them up
to the height of His own majesty.
Extraordinary and inex plicable facts happen to
disturb the ordinary course Of human events, be-
cause the eyes of men, too much accustomed TO
the wondrous order and harmony OF creation, be-
come dim and forget to perceive their most

THE NEW YEAR, AND THE TIMEs.-The all
vent of the year 1873, finds the people laboring
under excessively hard times, with taxes high,
and farm products far beidw rcmunrrative prices.
Dissatisfaction and Encouragement exist, and
many are talking Of selling eut, and removing in
search of better quarters, as if hard times would
not in turn assail them there, perhaps before
they are comfortably settled down.
The best plan is to weather out the storm where
weare. Theproduce market has evidently touched
bottom, and by Spring, press Will at least
be bearable, if aot high could he disired.
Europe, it is said, will require many million
bushels of grain from ahroad, much of which
must be supplied by the United States, and this
heavy demand must materially increase prices.
The result of the Presidential election has settled
the financial policy of the Government, re-assur-
ing capitalists, and arcrting danger Of a money
panic.
Taking all in all, there is good reason to hope
that, with the opening of Spring, business will
assume more lively aspect, and that the press
ure of hard times will yield, and prosperity
again smile upon the land.
