TIE SANTA BARBARA GRAPEvINE.-lts enormous proportions and unequalled frui- tage have long since made it celebrated. The body of the vine is over five and half feet m circumference eight feet from the ground at that height it branches into twenty large limbs, one of which is ? inch es in circumference, the exact size of the body of the Queens famous vine at Hamp- ton Court, England. The foliage of the vine covered, at Santa Barbara, 10000 square feet. IL bore six tons of grapes annually and is from sixty to one hundred years old. Its exhibition to the Centennial will be of value to our State, by directing attention to the wonderful productveness of our soil and climate. It will rank among the great curi- osities of the Centennial.

SYPMTOMS.

"He is sure possessed, madam"
 -Toelfth Night IT., when you hear a certain lady's name, You feel your pulses give sudden start, Or blush as if some secret sense of shame Had stirred, just then, the currents of your
 heart; And if that narnc--to put it rather strong In euphony seems very much above All other nanes-I think l can't be wrOug To venture the opinion, you're in love If, when at last, by some suspicious chance, You meet the lady at the ball or play, You shrink abashed before her modest glance, And quite forget the words you meant to
 say;
 And if moreover, gazing at her hand
 You wish upon that hand you were glove, It isn't very hard to understand
 (See "Romeo and Juliet"(, you're in love! If with two ladies. a sum rler's day, You sit alone, at luncheon or at tea, And think, if one of them were but away GA mile or sol. how happy you would be; Yet find your wits in such giddy whirl, You scarcely speak to her you're thinking of, But pratte gaily with the other girl There's reason for supposing you're in love! If all at once your amatory pen
 (Which nc'er before attempted lyric lines, TaUita nsusd-banc of gods and men ) Fervid song and madrigal inclines, Wherein you rashy rhyme of 'youth" and
 "trutb,''
 And call your subject "dariing," "duck," or
 "dove;' Or sadly beg some cruel lady's ruth The symptom is unfaling-you're in love! If her sex no other you can find
 One half so bright or beautiful as she; If to her killings you are wholly blind (The faults mean, that other people see); If in her "pug" you see "Grecian nosc," And never doubt the angel bands above Are silent when she sings-you may suppose, Beyond the slightest question, you're in love --John G. Sare, ia 1he GaiaLy tor Sept

The Catholics and the Schools.

A Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post telegraphed the follow ing under date of Sept. ::
 A singular story has been current for two or three days to the effect that Cardinal McCloskey carried with him to Rome the details of a scheme devised to break down the public school system of this country, and that, if it is approved by the Pope, 1t will be immediately put into operation.
 Certain prominent Roman Catholics liv- ing here are credited with having divulged the plan, which, according tO the statement of persons who believe the story to be au- thentic. consists chiefly of the establishment of college of Jesuits m Washington, with branch colleges in other cities, for the pur- pose of directing war upon the school sys- tem. and to influence men in public life.
 There are no means of verifying the story, and it is given only for what 1t is worth. Several public men have been informed of the alleged project, and have been furnished with the details more fully than are here given, and they are satisfied that 1t Is not founded on mere rumor.
 Whether this war which they will wage is to be open or covered will depend largely upon the success or failure of their political movements in the forthcoming elections The vote in New Jersey last week. on the question of adopting the new Consultation, was severe rebuke to the priests in their open efforts to defeat the section relating to the public schools.

 Coop PRovIsIONS.-Sonen new amendments to the constitution of New Jersey, adopted last week, are very prudent, and calculated to benefit the community greatly. One ot them makes the pay of legislators an annual salary, thus removing the abuse which has grown out of the imprudent custom ofpaying members by the day, and making sessions consist of so many days-a custom the effect of which has been to'insure the extension ot every session to the maximum period, and has been extremely provocative of cxtrava- gance wherever 1t has obtained. Another admirable amendment is that which gives the Governor power to veto part of an Ap- propriaton Bill without rejecting the whole. No provision was more urgently needed for experience proves that, under the old arran- cement, the impossitlity of vetong part of an Appropriation Bill without vitiating the whole of it, has been utilized systematically in the interest of corrupt schemes, and has in numberless instances paralyzed the hand of honest Executives at junctures when they alone stood between the people and the con summation of flagitious measures. Both these amendments will ultimately be incorpo rated in all Constitutions, without doubt, and both of them are necessary to the perpe- tuation of Governmental integrity Record Union.
