Portrait of LOyOla,

The renaissance came, and was for the
middle ages what Christianity was for an
tiqulty-the beginning of another age, the
soul OF another world. From the abyss of
heaven to the abyss of the sea, from the
| abyss of the sea to that of conscience, ali
was enlightened and illumiLed. The hui
man body rose from the breast of creation
and breathed and absorbed a new spirit
At this same moment sprang forth two par
ties which were to divide modern society
the conservative or reactiOnary party,
| which is represented by Jesuitism, and the
liberal or progressive party, which is rep
resented by Masonry. And indeed the re-
formation has all the religious accessories
of other religions. st. Francis, of Assist.

Luther its revealer, but Ignatius LOyola

He was b>rn in Spain, in the country
which was soon to sacrifice itself for

province. in the province Of the grand detiles
and the treeless plains. at the foot of the
Py-enees, called the Mountains of Fire by
the ancients, near that untamed Cantabrian
sea whose waves are continually inviting to
marvellous Adventures. He was the COM
patriot of the sailor Elcano: he was the as-
sociate of Magellan, who first circumnavi-
gated the globe. He was born in the last
days of chivalry, and grew up in the dawn
OF modern tines-tLe end of the fifteenth
century. War was his occupation, adven-
lures were the employment of his youth.
But IN the war of Navarro, sustained bv
the Catholic king, he was wounded by a
bullet. A long illness followed, and after

Her gaze no mischief spoke,

In the sweet season Of sprinKide weather.

The me dows loom through the sunset glow.
In the hot prime of the summer weather.

Over the yellowing poplar row

For lovers it always is summer weather.

And some day, shonld he awaken

Aided by my poor endeavOrs,

Oh, there would be joy in heavenl
What avail these days of strife,
If at last a single loved one
Should embrace eternal lifey
Father, surely you RENE mber,
On that sunday ParsOn Good
When he married us together,
Said "fOr evil and for good"
And I've thought the matter over -
Through long nights, when John Was out
And there v as no human near me-
Only Gods great calm about,
Till I've slowly learned my lesson
Word by woId I've spelled it through
And-well, Iather, can't leave John
No, not even to please YOU.

An aggravated and brutal case Of abor-
/ ton has just come to light in Cincin-
natl. The parties concerned are Of the
most respectable character. About two
months ago Belle Werts left her home
| IN Miamitown, near that city, Ostensi-
| Oly on q visit to friends in GreensbuTg,
Indiana, where, two weeks since, her
father was summoned TO her deathbed,
but before his arrival, the body was
shipped 70 Cincinnati, and thence TO
| Miamitown. Or. Hill, who attended
her, said she died Of inflammation Of
the bowels. Suspicion of foul play was
arOdsed, but nothing was done until the
funeral was progressing. While in the
church the excitement increased, the
/ ceremonies were stopped, a jury was
empRnnelled, and an inquest held on
the spot. About midnight the examina-
ton Of Witnesses was concluded, the
church cleared, and a post norton eX-
smiHstiOn made, which proved that
Belle WeIts's death had been caused by
ABORTION. The examining physicians
state that il was q buHgliHg and brutal
operation, and must have resulted in
speedy death, as the organs we're terri
bly, ruptuied and lacersted. The jury
returned a verdict in accordance with
the facts, and charged DR.. HID, James
Collins, the girls lover; hrs. Little, her
sister, and Charles Little, her nephew,
as being accessories to the crime.

! From an Occasional Correspondent
GRENADA, MISS, December 21.--We
left Memphis by the Mississippi and
| Teune =see railroad, and not wishing ID
fstter its officers, but &c Is the snlOothest
and best road IN the south. At Herman
do we found the platform full of cotton
not much improvements the merchants,
as elsewhere, not anxious to sell goods
except for cash. At Coldwater the i'm
prOvemeuts have been great, and the
merchants seem to have more vim. Our
old Memphis. raised DIR. Gabbert and
lady preside over the destlaies of the
hotel, and know how 90 furnish the
necessaries ef life in such condition as to
be inviting. The platform was full Of
cotton at Eenato6is-more cUtton than
they could ship. At Como the meT-
chants were buying corn from the coun-
try at siZry-hve cents bushei. We fear
some Of them may have to buy il back
ere another crop, and pay great deal
more fer 1t. Como has arisen Phoenix
like from the great fire only a few
months ago, and has intentions Of rival
ing her competitors. At Sardis there ts
a great stir about cotton, of which there
Is a large quantity on hand. 1t has i'm
proved greatly within q few years. Our
friend Cooks courthouse sets the town
of, and her merchants are Wide-awake
men. Batesville has more than recover
ed from the fire of a few years ago, and
is as important point as any on the
road; has az good q set Of merchants as
can be found, lots of cotton in and
around their depot. From 3 glance at
all the dep0ts there are over five thou
sand bales on the road. At Grenada
the streets are blockaded with cotton
looks ike itdid during the war-not less
than two thousand five hundred bales.
The grangers and others are talking
about having the Tallahatebie river
cleaned out so steamers can again come
TO Pamela and Grenada. Great loss and
damage must occur to cotton IL
not moved soon, as it lays on
the ground. Grenada is i'm
proving more than any place know Of
At all points Memphis drummers are
met selling all kinds and description Of
goods. Before reaching Grenada, we
heard of accidents and delays on the
Mississippi Central railroad. There is
something wrong in the management
OF that road, as numerous accidents
have happened to the trains; Lrtunate-
ly no lOss Of lie. The employees OF the
road have not been paid for several
months. Cotton lays for weeks with no
transportation to carry it to market.
Superintendent Burke, of the Missis-
sippi and Tennessee road, says he will
clean up his road Of cotton in ten or If
teen days. Unless the Mississippi Cen
tral furnish transportation, Memphis
will get half the cotton at Grenada.

THE SPECULATIVE EFF0RT

in November, in the expectation that
receipts in December would show a
large falling of as compared with last
year, but with the effect of little more
than sustaining prices. The weather
was at times so bad ss 10 prevent pick
iBg, and the rivers Of the south and
west, from the effect Of the prolonged
drought, were so low ss to retard the
marketing Of the crop. 1t must be ad.
mitted, however, that the monetary fs-
cilities have been ample and the neces-
stiles Of the planters very great. At
any rate, the receipts st the ports fOr

than ever before for the same period in
the history of cotton. The short crop
