Physicians. who certainly ought to be the

curse Of Coz. But how did her o6eaded
Maker regard herr Certainly not with
scorn. Ere He utters q single word OF
condemnation upon unfortunate Eve, He
curses her betrayer. and upon the awak-
ened. penitent woman fall sweet words OF
promise Of future triumph: Il will put
enmity between thy seed and her seed;
it shall bruise thy head, but thou shalt
bruise his heel Ewes curse was per-
sonal and not merely physical; her mind
as we'll as her body suffered From her
proud eminence she descends to a sec
ondary position, "and thy desire shall be
to thy husband and he shall rule over
thee. Such being the words of her
curse, we may with all safety conclude
that in the beginning woman was the su.
perior being, that she posed mind Of
finer, more majestic quality than that Of
man. The last finishing act Of God was
certainly the most exquisitely perfect
Eve sinned through a desire for un-
bounded wisdom; Adam through desire
for something good TO eat, if we rightly
construe His curse which reads: Cursed
is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow
shalt thou eat of it all the days Of thy
life -" and in the sweat of thy face
shalt thou eat bread until thou return
unto the ground"
Men in all ages have claimed, and
still do claim to be superior TO woman in
mental as well as in physical power.
Well, let them claim it, but We beg leave
to inform them that whatever superior
ity, possessed or assumed, they may have
they are mainly indebted to Eve and her
successors for it, for science tells us
and science is masculine agent--thst
the minds Of children are inherited from
the mothers and not from the fathers OF
the race.
Mother Eve did wrong to eat of the
forbidden fruit, but she was prompted to
it by no mean, no ordinary desire. Her
ambition was Sublime, and still, in no
small measure, beats within the breasts
Of her traduced descendants, many of
whom have shown minds equal to any
mans s; and we do most solemnly protest
that while we are more ambitious we are
lees curious than the masculine division
Of the race.

The Senate adjourned to noon tomorrow.

Mr.. Blaine, of Maine, rising to o personal
explanation, said that in the debate yester-
day on the Louisiana question he had ex-
pressed the hope that the other side of the
House would NOT, in an incidental way, at
tempt to reopen and dishOnOr the agree
ment made last year. Some persons had
imagined that the word ''dishouor" had
been used by him with some desire to i'm
pute it to the gentleman from Mississippi
tMr. Lamar, as q personal affrOnt. He had
used it only in the sense of nullifying and
dsregarding and not with the remotest
idea OF Offering an atfrOnt to that
gentleman. He (Mr. LAMAR knew if
their relations were not intimate they
had been nothing else than entirely
cordial at all times, and that it must be
the furthest from his design at any time to
say anything to him wounding or otherwise
disagreeable to his feelings.
Mr.. Lamar said he had not heard the
word which the gentleman from Maine was
reported as having said, and that even if he
had heard it he would have believed that 1t
had dropped from him Inadvertently in the
heat of debate, for he believed that the
gentleman was incapable of offering gra-
tuitous insult to himself or any other gen.
tleman. He accepted the explanation in
the generous spirit in which it was made.

to education, church property, and the
Cuban question, The members began gradu-

EN ROUTE TO TIE BORDER,
GALVESTON, December 6 1877.

GALVESTON, December 6. 1875.
l arrived here Sunday evening on the
John A. Dix, Captain Freeman, all well.
We left New Orleans last Thursday morning
early, but stormy weather compelled rs to
seek safety in such harbors as could be
found. The recruits on board, under charge
OF Commander Kells, are in good spirits,
but seem anxious to enter on active service,
Paymaster Machette, on the Dix, thinks
that quiet life on the Canonicus is pre-
ferable to rolling around in the turbulent
gulf.
While we were in Sabine Pass waiting
Tor good weather, Captain Freeman took a
look at the lighthouse, as there appeared to
be something out of order. visited the
tower with him and foun6 that the outer
windows had been broken, bat the Keeper,
Crossman, had patched up the glass ~ we'll
as he could. Wild geese and ducks, at
tracted by the glare during the night, had
flown against the windows and broken the
panes, thus changing the appearance of the
light.
l learned in Sabine of the loes, in the
oopVcuuoH RdIos VI y ecuooutF, uou reported
before. Its name was Witch of the Wave,
plying between this city and Sabine. Moth.
ing has been heard of her, and there is no
hope that anything will ever be heard of
the vessel.
At Sabine City learned that about 10, 900
bales of cotton will go out of that river this
season, all of which goes to Galveston, by
schooner, the freight or which is only
ninety cents per bale. In former times not
less than 30 900 bales were shipped from
Sabine, but the largest portion now goes up
the river to the railroad and finds it's way
to st. Louis. Here Is cheerful crumb for
New Orleans cotton men to chew on. The
owners of every bale of this cotton, am
told, prefer to send their staple to New Or
leans. if they could, taking the same
chances that they now own.
l find this city in q tolerably fourishing
condition, and can see no marks Of the

barks, six ships, two steamships aud a
dozen schooners in port, all ready to take
cotton, and they will get good loada, since

NEW ORLEANS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER
THE MESSAGE,

The message Of President Grant, which
appears in full in the REPUBLICAN this
morning, is the longest State paper he
has ever issued, and it is, withal, the most
interesting one.
The President prefaces the message
with brief but glowing comparison of
the progress of the nation from the day of
its birth to this, its hundredth year. The
results are startling, and the comparison
striking. From the past hundred years
the President gathers hope and promise
of the future. His confidence in the free
school system, as the greatest of the
agencies of a good and durable govern
ment, is evidenced. The exemption of
church property from taxation is referred
to, and strong recommendations against
its continuance urged.
Affairs with foreign nations are alluded to
as in favorable condition. Chill, Portu-
gal, Colombia, Venezuela and the Sand
wich Islands are briefly spoken of. The
Cuban question receives more attention
Upon this head the message is frank, ex-
plicit and exhaustive. The President re-
cognizes the Struggle of the Cuban insur-
gents as unabated and violent; that the
home government has vainly endeavored
to suppress it. Yet the Cuban rebellion
lacks those features that would justify
even an according of belligerent rights.
Mediation seems to be the only key to
the situation. The friendly Offices of tn
government failing in that, intervention
would of necessity follow sooner or later.
The Mexican free trade zone and the
border troubles are briefly referred to.
The Court of Alabama Claims is alluded
to; an extension of its term recommended,
as we'll as the organization Of tribunal
for the trial of the claims of aliens.
The subject of international submarine
telegraphic lines demands much of the
Presidents attention, and the necessity of
requiring certain material and mutual
concessions before permitting cables from
a foreign nation to be landed on our soil.
The question of fraudulent naturaliza-
ton and expatriation is treated upon at
length, and the President reviews some
of the suggestions of his last message to
Congress.
The subject of resumption of specie
payment is directly met by the President.
A return to coin basis can not occur too
soon, and while the President has no plan
which he is prepared to call the best he
is ready to second Congress in any
measures they may lake looking to that
end.
7 The army and navy are spoken of
and some suggestions of the secretaries
recommended for adoption. The centen-
nial comes in for careful mention and pa-
triotic recommendation, and all the gov
ernment bureaux in their order.
The President urges upon Congress
action in the suppressing of polygamy in
Utah, and an amendment of the land and
mining laws. He concludes, with brief
recapitulation of his principal sugges-
tions, a public document which will pro-
woke more thought, and excite more COM
ment, probably, than any like do cument
has done for years.

Interesting to Club. and Societies.

The New Grand Union Hotel, now rapid
ly approaching completion in Phila delphia,
announces that the management is pre-
pared to make epecial arrangements with
clubs and socie ties, for the price of board
during the Centennial months. The Grand
Union, moreover. is admirably ranged to
accommodate parties from half dozen to
hundred, affordiDg every hotel comfort at
moderate charges. 1t has the finest loca-
tion Of any hotel in the city, is within quick
and easy access to the Centennial build
ings, and has capacity fer 1000 guests.
Its manager, Theo. Russell, Esq, is one Of
the most popular and widely known hotel
proprietors in the United States, and we
would ecommend those of our readers who
intend visiting Philadelphia during the
Cente ennisl to act ON that timely hint.
