KEEPING II Ur.-Thc advice of iIor.
ace Greeley, Go West, young man,
90 West, is sometimes good advice TO
follow for moral as well as financial
recupcration. About fifteen years ago
Rev. Isaac Kalloch, a Baptist clergy
man Of Boston, was indicted and tried
for adultery, which in Massachusetts,
is penal otlensc Though the facts
were positively sworn to, his able
counsel succeed in securing a disagree
mcnt of the jury. But public opinion
was So strong against him that he left
the ministry and went to Kansas, and
engaged in business there. Within
the last year, however, he has become
n preacher again, and is said to bG
more successful than ever recent
occasion in Leavenworth it is said that
the great church, the largest in Kansas,
was filed to overlooking, and crowds
who desired admission were turned
away from the doors. The New York

is the memory of the public for accu
sations of adultery brought against al
eloquent and ctfecting minister Il
is to be doubted whether it is the frail
ty of the public memory which produ
ces such result, so much as the appe
tite for public sensationalism, which
insists upon gratifying itself withou
regard to consistency or consequences
Kallach, like Beecher, is said to hav
extraordinary gifts and moving elo

willing to run the risk of being mad'

MISCELLANY.

The following extract from a speech mad
In the House of Lords by Lord Chesterfield
about the year l74s, is very appropriate to thu
circumstances Of the present day
luxury, my lord, is to be taxed, but vice
prohibited. let the difficulty in the law be
what it may. Would you lay tax upon a
breach or the Ten commandments Woaid
not such tax be wicked and scandalous p
Would it not imply an indulgence to.all those
who could pay the tax? Vice, my, lords, is
not properly to he taxed, but suppressed and
heavy taxes are sometimes the only means by
which the suppression can be obtained. Lux
ury, or that which is Only pcrncious by itsex-
cess, may very properly be faxed that such
excess, though not strictly unlawful, may be
made more difficult But the use of those
things which are simply hurtful in their own
nature and every degree is to prohibited
None, my lords, ever heard in. any nation, of
a tax upon theft or adultery, because tax
] implies license granted for the use of that
which is taxed, to all who are willing to pay
for it. Drunkenness, my lords. is universally,
and in all circumstances, an evil, and there
fore ought not to be taxed, but punished. So
little, my lords, am affected with the merit
of that wonderful skill which fistillcrs are
said to have attained, that it is, in my opinion
no faculty of great use to mankind to prepare
palatable poison nor shall contribute my
interest for the reprieve Of a murderer be-
cause he has by long practice, obtained great
dexterity in his trade. If their liquors are SO
delicious that the people are tempted to their
own destruction, let us at least, my lords, Sc
cure them from their fatal draught by burst
ing the walls that contain them. Let us
crush at once these artists in human slaugh-
ter who have reconciled their countrymen to
sickness and ruin, and spread over the pit
falls of debauchery such a bait as cannot be
resisted"

FRANCE-Many people read the
telegraphed reports of proceedings in
the French Assembly, and become
hopelessly confused when the dis
patches are talking about the Left, the
Right, the Right Center, and the Left
Center. By reference to the following
explanation they may be able to ac-
quire some knowledge of what is go
ing on in that extraordinary body:
The Left is composed of the Re-
publicans, of whom Leon Gambetta
and Jules are leaders. The Extreme
Left is Radical Republican or Com
munist The Left Center is made up of
the Conservative Republicans-the
men who are willing to accept a re-
public as the best practical form of
government. Thiers and Casimir- Pc
rier are leaders in this branch of the
Assembly. The right is composed of
the Legitimists or Bourbons-the ul-
ira, divine right, white flag, Chambord
Monarchists. The Right Center rep
resents the Conservative Monarchists
or Orleanists, who favor conservative
type. The Bonapartists are generally
classified with the Right, but there are
only about forty-five or fifty Of them.
The deputies comprising the Assembly
number 738-723 of whom are elected
in France, and fifteen in the French
colonies.
