NEW ORLEANS, Sept. %, IL p. M.-The

1t was decided that the members should
hold themselves in readiness to act at all
times. The feeling among them is more
bitter than previous to the fight, and they
argue that the only method whereby kel-

not because they particularly hate the Fed

Profanity.

We arc cmphatically in the age Of proian-
ity, and it seems to us that we arc on the
topmost current. One cannot go on the
streets anywhere without having his ears
offended with the yilcst of words, and his
reverence shocked by the most profane use
Of sacred names. Nor does it come from the
old or middle-aged alone, for it is fact, as
alarming as true, that the younger portion
Of the community are most proficient in the
degrading language. Boys have an idea it
is smart to swear; that it makes them
manly; but there never was a greater mis-
take in the world. Men, even those who
swear themselves, arc disgusted with profan-
ity in young man, because they know how,
of all bad habits, this clings the most closely
and increases with years. 1t is the most
insidious Of habits, growing on so invisibly
that almost before one Is aware lac becomes

The auestion as to whether editors
are or arc not professional men came up
before an Illinois justice Of the peace
in one of the suburbs Of Chicago, a
short time since, and that second Dan
iel decided promptly and justly that
they are. Every journalist, doubtless,
will breathe more freely when he hears
Of the Illinois fat. The history of the
case is thus told by the Inter Ocean:
"Mr. f. +. Brown, the editor and pro-
prietor of the Lakeside Monthly, had a
little misunderstanding with the Lake
side Publishing Company about a small
debt which he owed that concern. With
an idea of effecting speedy settlement
the company swore out writ Of attach
ment aud levied on several inkstands,
and bunches of Faber pencils,and reject
ed manuscripts, and other property Pc
culiar to the editorial sanctum. Under
the statutes of Illinois so much of the
property of a professional man as incl
dent to his profession is exempt from
taxation. With this wise provision of
the law in hand, Mr.. Browne sought
Justice Haines' Office, and asked the
court to enforce the restoration of bis
property. The Lakeside Printing Com
pany urged that editors are not profess.
ional men, that they were merely liter
airy artisans writing machines, defacers
of white paper, who were allowed TO ex.
ist by Divine Providence for the sole pur-
pose of keeping the Lakeside Publish
ing Company and similar concerns sup.
piled with copy Ip word, argued
they, the editor is nothing more than q
mere drudge, slave of the devil, d
necessary piece of machinery in printing
establishments, and therefore the editor
should not be classed among profession
al men. Justice Hines concluded tha
the learned attorney for the defense, whc
by the way belongs to the profession
called 'shyster,' did not agree with tn,
best photographers in his definition o
editor, and he announced that the con
tents of the editorial sanctum, under tn
provisions of this statute, were exempt
from attachment

The Massachusetts Railroad Com
missioners have made a very interesting
report on railway management, from
which we select the following paragraphs
on Railway evolution
"As yet human ingenuity has devised
but four methods of establishing the re.
lations in which the railroads of any
country shall stand toward its Govern
ment. Left wholly in the hands Of pri.
vate individuals or Of corporations, they
may be Independent of all Government
control, standing on the same footing as
cotton.mills or iron-toundries: or they
may be subjected to the operation of spe-
cial municipal laws establishing their OBJ
legations, regulating their charges, and
limiting their profits: or, still remaining
the property and under the control of
private parties, they may be subjected
to an executive supervision and control;
or, finally, in whole or in part, they may
be owned and operated by the State.
In fact, species Of natural law of po.
litical evoltion governing transporta.
tion by rail may now be formulated. In
all countries the political systems of
which are based upon the principle of
non. interference in industrial enterprises
railroads are first organized on the the
ory of their sufficient regulation by nat.
ural laws. From this iDcipient stage
they develop through an attempted reg.
ulstion by legislative enactment into q
state of practical executive supervision
the whole process tending, with greater
or less degree OF friction, toward the Il.
mai result, in which the work OF trans,
pNtation by rail must apparently be
recognized as one Of the functions Of
government This process OF evolution
may now be studied in different civilized
countries III each of its several stages
In certain parts of America non-inter
ference is developing into an attempt a;
legislative regulation ; in other parts Of
the country and in England Legislative
regulation is passing gradually into the
phase executive supervision, which may
be studied in France as a perfected sys
TEN approximating to State ownership
which final condition, again, is, in its
turn, matter of warm discussion both il
America and in England, while in Bel
gium it is already in full development
The gradual and inevitable evolution il
this process OF development has, per
haps, been more clearly illustrated il
the experience OF America than in that
of any other single country.
In this country the relations Of tn,
railroad system 10 the political system
may be considered as having now passeC
through two phases of discussion and at
tempted ettlement-corresponding t
two stages in the process of evolution
and to be entering upon a third. L
has passed through the non.interferenc
phase and the legislative phase During
the last year it has in the State of Iii
nois entered upon what may be calle'
the phase of executive supervision, Will
in Massachusetts, the discussion has ad
vanced yet further, and has fairl
touched its utmost possible limit in tn
agitation Of measure looking to partia
State ownership.

The French have story that Sir
Walter Scott once offered his youngest
daughter her choice between a dowry of
100000 francs OF" Quentin Durward.
She asked to read the MS, took it SER
reptitiously to publisher, found that
he would give her 10000 francs, and
dutifully and meekly told her father
that she would rather have the MS.
than the money. Sir Walter was deep
ly touched by this mark of filial dcvo.
tion. The Paris journal which tells the
story says that a French girl would new.
er have done such thing as that. She
would simply have taken the 100000
francs, and-she would have found some
way to get possession of the romance
also.
