A New ORGAN FOR ST. JAMES CHURCH,
Henry Erbeu, the noted organ.builder of
New York city, has just been given an order
to build a new organ for St. James church,
which he is under contract to complete and
set up in the church by the Goth Of Decem-
her. The organ now in the church was built
by Erben some thirty-fre years ago, and at
that time was considered good instrument; I;
but it has at last succumbed to the wear and
tear of time, and is now little more than the
organic remains of its former self.
The new organ will cost $4,000, and the
comnosition of the instrument, selection OF
stops, &C., has been made with great care,
and when flushed will be one OF the pest III

SPAIN.

The loss of a firm national character
and the degradation Of a nations hon
or. is the inevitable prelude to her de-
struction. The once proud fabric of a
Roman empire, stretching its arts and
armies throughout the then known
world. could not be saved from decay
either by the bravery Of a Curtius or
the elequence of Cicero. The mighty
foundations Of a Grecian Republic,
strengthened by the teachings of the
Athenian lawgiver, became gradually
xapped by the luxurious listlessness OF
the people, and finally crumbled away.
These, then, are but the prototypes of
Sui,. Three hundred years ago her
invincible armies and mighty navies
proclaimed her power and glory
throughout the world. and even at a
later period England trembled at the
approach Of her armada. To-day, how
changed! and during the short period
Of one year we find a King deposed.
and no less than four Presidents of the
so-called republic compelled to resign
in rapid succession, to finally yield the
reins, Of government to a well known
adherent of royalty. Will the aces
sion of Marshal Serrano, the strong
supporter CT Alphonso, to the chiet
place in the nation. put an end to the
dissentions existing, and bring peace
to this disordered land? We think
not. Don Carlos has enlisted a strong
religious sympathy throughout the
country, and 80 long as the Intransi-
gentes exist they will form an element
OF continued discord. The Spaniards,
as a people, are breeders OF revolutions
and civil disturbances, and seemingly
i,ncrant of the value of peace. \ ma
ton of such a character cannot appre-
ciate the blessings of a republic, and
if governed at all, must be held in sub
lection by the strong arm Of mon
archy, and finally degenerate Into a
nationality having a name only. with
out either dignity or power to make it
respected.

THE CHIEF JUsTICEsHIP.-The most
important item in our Geographic adj
vices this morning relates to the Chief
Justiceship. 1t will be seen that
President Grant has nominated Caleb
Gushing for the distinguished position.
Some Of the mor radical Republican
Senators are opposed to him, but there
can be no question, we think, about his
speedy confirmation The appointment
will doubtless meet the approval OF the
people in all sections of the country.
Gushing is the man, Of all others,
who should have been nominated in

WHITE LIES"

At a meeting of the Woman's Social
Education Society Of New York, held
last week, the subject of telling "white
lies" occupied the hour of discussion.
1t seemed to be the prevailing opinion
of the assembled sisters that a lady is
not justifiable in telling a servant to
say she is not at home when she is at
home. Many ~ We're offered for

eral other little customs Of story-tell-
ing were ventilated, and all denounced,
yet the meeting adjourned without
ven suggesting a remedy which might
be offered to public consideration.
They thought that if society would ac-
cept a truthful excuse, it would be bet
