SOUND DOCTRINE.

Senator Bayard, OF Delaware, recently en-
nncated sound doctrine in his speech on the
Louisiana case, which the New ork Post con-
slders mastery and stateamanlike. Mr..
Bayard said:
'By a refusal of the general government to
act in good faith with the people of Stately
thrusting upon them government hateful to
their feelings and ruinous to their property,
their affections are destroyed and their means
of payment of their share of their public bur
dens is taken away. l ask, in candor, how
can the people OF the other States OF the Union
expect il willing maintenance of tho burdens
OF the general government, payment OF Its
taxes, and hearty support of its financial
honor, from a community whom they have
suffered 10 be trampled down 10y fraud and
force, and over whom they have set a sham
government which exists only 10 plunder pro-
perry instead OF protecting il. 1 wish | could
engraye this sentence where every man of the
rich and populous North could read it: jus
tce to theSouth is self protection to the North.
Ours is avountary government il is framed
and based upon the idea that the people can
and will govern themselves. If the will of
the people be wanting, the form of govern
ment will soon tade away. If the government
is to be strong, and continue TO exist, ii win
be because the hearts OF the American people
strongly desire it, and II they lose Their love
for it, or lose their faith in it, it must go
to pieces"

directly adverse TO the evidence. The defendant
being negro was doubt willing instrument
to be used as occasion required by the Old pollh-

Ex-Governor Paul Dillingham; and Hon.
Victor Atwood were in consultation at Wa
terbury on Saturday, and Governor Peck
arrived in the afternoon. What provisions
will be made for the future cannot be pre-
dicted. An extra session of the legislature
to provide for rebuilding is talked of, and
which is probably the only way out of it..
Governors Peck and Dillingham;, both able
lawyers, can judge of the legal phase of
the subject.
During the fire the boys behaved splen-
didly. They were mostly placed upon their
honor and none attempted to run away.
There is no authority to discharge the boys
or remove them elsewhere or to discontinue

school, reached home at 8 o'clock Saturday
afternoon from Gardner, where telegram

fectcd plans for the temporary disposal OF
the 14S school boys under his care. His
plans were Immediately laid before the

adopted. They are as follows: Near the

church in Bennington on Thursday after
noon, Dec. 10th. The exercises were open

by Mrs. G. b. Hubert of the Congrega-

Mrs. r. NJ. Luther of the Baptist church.
After singing another hymn Mrs, II. NJ.
creasing interest in the missionary work in
the Baptist church and society which she
represents. Mrs. DR.. II. j. Potter gave Il
brief review of the missionary field of the
Methodist church which she represents.
Mrs. Rev. Bostwick Hawley followed,
mai ing an interesting address.
Miss Anna G. Park then made an adj
dress, stating that thousand dollars had
been raised in year in Honolulu by men,
bers of the Womens Board in that delight
full cluster of islands She gave an interest
ing account of the work of the early mis-.
sionarics sent forth by our people in en-
lighened America, and narrated the recep-
ton of the first missionaries. Among other
items she alluded to the custom of the ma
tives, that the king was SO supreme that all
must fall on their faces when he went by;
they must be careful not to place them
selves above the king in any way She
stated that the climate is uniformly so mid
that the ferns are always bright and fresh,
and can at all times be used for decorating
their churches with little trouble, save to
pick them close by their doors. She de-
scribed their houses "a much improved,
rendering the family relation more social
by enabling each family to be in degree
by themselves. The chiefs are of great
size even now. Every effort is made to H.
crease the flesh of any bel)Jging to the
royal family, as the larger one is the more
claims they have to beauty.
The two articles of food are fish and poi
The latter they prepare with considerable
care. The young ladies' school is at this
time managed by one of the daughters of
Rev. Hiram Bingham, the first missionary
to the Sandwich islands, Ga native OF Ben
nington.) Even now the impression still
exists that acc must paint or we would not
be any whittier than themselves. Specimens
of cloth were exhibited made of bark.
Miss Park closed by saying that no one can
look at the faces of Hawains of the present
time without discovering that cultivation
and religion nave lett Ineir impression upon
this now christianized nation.
The exercises were closed with singing.
