The following extract from letter writ
ten to friend in this city by the Rev. Mr.
Woodward, of Birmingham, England, dated
February 8, 1875, We have permission to
publish.
Mr.. Woodward spent several years in this
country, and became deeply interested and
intimately acquainted with the problems in
process of solution here. General Camp.
bell, whose speech on the night of the
eleventh of January is so justly appreciated
by Mr.. Woodward, is one that truly appre-
hends the great questions now occupying
the mind Of the nation relative to the South.
To his ringing words of cheer and untiring
efforts in the cause of justice and progress
much OF the success achieved in this State
is due. His words have commanded marked
attention at home and abroad:
l need hardly tell you how gratified was
to read the utterances made by General
Campbell in his speech before the Republi-
can MACS meeting January ii, as reported
in the New Orleans REPUBLICAN you sent
me, knowing as do their truthtulness; and
glad am that one was to be found bold
enough to send them forth, to be heard not
only in New Orleans itself, but to be read
and pondered over through the United
States; aye, and through all countries at all
interested in the welfare of humanity. All
honor to the man who dared to do this in
the way that General Campbell has! am
at loss to know what the compromise por-
tends, between the Democrats and Gov
ernor Kellogg-as reported by telegraph in
this mornings paper, February 8. l wait
for further information, and fear little good
can come of such an arrangement,

Vocal and Organ Concert.

We would remind our readers of the
vocal and organ concert on Tuesday night
next in the Coliseum Place Baptist Church.
This is, in many respects, one of the most
elegant concert rooms in the city, and has
in it one of the largest and best organs,
upon which Professor Schaffler and other
skilled organists will play upon that occa-
sion. Professors Watts and Beardslee, of
the Old Folks Concert fame, will sing
some ballads. Mrs. Pelton, of Brooklyn,
daughter of Governor Flanders, and a
splendid soprano, will render the sacred
song, II know that my Redeemer iveth."
The choruses are to be by the well-trained
Sunday school, who sing with q marvellous
exactness and spirit. Great pains have
been taken to select new, fresh and
spirited music. The Little Girls Song"
by Miss Lucille Nicholson, a seven.year
old child, and so much applauded at the
last concert, will be repeated. Also the
popular solo and chorus, "The Cars are
Coming" and Professor Watts and Miss
Beach will give the duet, Bring me the
Bowl" one Of the most effective OF temper
ance songs. The whole affair promises to
be one of the most pleasing concerts yet
given in our city.

The Great Concert,

The Old Folks have resolved to give an
other oncert, and this time in aid Of the
Heme for the Aged and Infrm, under charge
Of the good Little Sisters OF the Poor, one
OF the most deserving of charities. A num-
Der of the best ladies of the city have taken
the matter in hand, and there can be no
doubt of grand success. Professors
Beardslee and Watts will direct the music
and arrange the programme, in both of
which departments they have already
shown the greatest skill and good taste.
Tickets to the. concert, which are only fifty
cents each, may be obtained at prominent
stores and offices.

Tho Anchor Line.

The Anchor line of steamships, notwith-
standing the dullness of trade in 1874,
added three new vessels to their already
large fleet, viz: The Victoria, the Ethiopia
and the Italia. all over $500 tons. The
saloon or drawingroom on the ships of this
line extend from side to side, and this sys-
ten is much approved by passengers, be.
cause while it gives increased space to the
salooon itself, the sleeping berths are by
this arrangement removed and the state
rooms are entirely apart and secluded.
We understand that Mr.. Alexander Hay,
the agent here, has offered to carry the
fremen excursionists to Europe and back
for &35, 900 if 500 60, or for $4,000 if 1000
60, giving them as large vessel as can be
foated over the bar.

What ColoneI Zachario Thinks.
Colonel Zacharie, counsel for the Con-
servatlves OF Louisiana, says the committee
now IN session here tries to keep the prO.
ceed1ngs secret, because if it should appear
probable that decisions will be favorable to
the Conservatives number of Republicans
now IN Office in New Orleans might be sum-
marily removed.
The Adjustment.
The Louisiana investigating committee
resumed lts session at 1880 A. NJ, and re-
nained busily engaged until five O'Clock in
the afternoon. Mr.. Frye, q member of the
committee, arrived in this city on Friday
evening. and was in attendance. Hon. q.
+. Hoar presided. All the members were
present. The counsel for contestin9 par
ties remained in an adjoining room during
the day. and were consulted occasionally
by the committee.
Mr.. Charles Csvanac, q citizen of New
Orleans. was also present to watch the pro
ceedlngs in the interest Of the Conserve
tlves. Mr.. HOar, at the end of the proceed
lngs, informed the representatives. of the
press there was nothing to be published in
connection with the investigation, and that
ltwould be breach of trust for any member
OF the committee to communicate ANYTHING
as to its action. The authority upon which
they proceed to investigate the case is
ceded to them by Representatives claiming
seats, and having signed an agreement
constituting the committee . body to ex-
anime the election records It is understood
that the decision which will be agreed upon
will result in giving several seats to the
Conservatives. The committee have nearly
closed their work, and will finish their re-
port early on Monday forenoon.

There is something touching in the spells
of the mighty deep, in the storm spells and
the sick spells. Children play with the
shells and in the sands of its shores, and are
made better children; aged men sit and re-
fleet by the sad sea waves, and become
kinder and wiser; lovers sit under the
charm where the ocean hugs the shore, and
they hug each other.

RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

CHRIST AND HUMANITY. By Henry M.
Goodwin. Published by Harper & Broth.
ers, New York. For sale by George Ellis
g. Brother, No. 81 Camp street.
We find here thrown together in book
form series of lectures or sermons deliv-
cred before congregations at Rockford,
Illinois. as review, historical and critical,
of the doctrine of Christ's person. 1t is an
erudite and rather tedious volume to prove
that Christ was a man-"God man, as the
author has 1t. 1t treats of 'the Kenosis, or
self-limltation Of the Logos," q doctrine
useful enough in itself, doubtless,
but no small boy need sit up nights and
cry if he can not learn it. Mr. Goodwi
proves his position in the argument, how
ever, for he says SO, and leaves the follow.
ing self-satisfying conclusion in an epigram.
'matical sentence which is good specimen
Of his lucid style. He says: 1--WE think we
have shown conclusively tn at the past and
current theories on this subject, whether
fossilized in creeds, or lying loose and
unst tratifed in the conglomerate called
orthodoxy, do not meet the demands of a
luz CAilsCOioSJ, Us SoElucu ny u True 1nCor-
probation of Scripture, by the Christian
consciousness and sound psychology"
The essays lack the perspicuity of the
sermon on the mount, and the conc;seness
of the Lords Prayer, but there are those
living who will praise them as an able
effort.

ANUSE MENTS.


Mr.. E. L. Davenport appeared ae this
theatre last night as Jack Cade, which
character he rendered with consumate
skill Tonight the performance will be for
the benefit Of the little soubrette actress OF
the company, Miss Susie Parker. She has
selected for the occasion the drama of
"Green Bushes" and will act Nellie ONeu,
with songs. Miss Virginia Buchanan plays
Miami, the huntress of the Mississippi. 1t
will be seen that Mr.. Davenport is sverse to
acting on Sunday evenings. While it can
be no more wrong to play than to visit
playhouse on such evenings, every one
must respect an actor who takes such
position and is conscientious in his mo-
tives, which Mr.. Davenport certainly is,
He is an actor and at the same time
Christian gentleman. When the Rev. Tai
mage attacked the theatrical profession in
Brooklyn, Mr.. Davenport, in whose char
acter no flaw could be found, publicly re-
PEELED the general insult in speech upon
the occasion Of his benefit. He is consistent
in practice and teaching and was able to do
so. He is the same in New Orleans, where
there is but little Sunday, as in Brooklyn,
where there is but little else. II We may
judge by the interest taken in clergymen.
One week ago Mr.. Davenport arrived here;
on the Sunday morning following the man.
sger of the theatre sent to the hotel to in
quire if he would be pleased to rehearse
with the company, and was informed that
Mr.. Davenport not only would not act, but
would not rehearse on Sunday.
Tomorrow evening Mr.. Davenport will
appear in his great play of ''St. Marc, or Che
Soldier Of Fortune"
Varieties Theatre.
Tomorrow evening the Varieties stage
will be graced by the presence Of Mrs. F.
