NEW YORK.

New York, January H. The World publishes a
cable despatch from London, saying that the first
tentative computations made at Greenwich of the
data obtained from observations of the recent
transit of Venus, have yielded results somhwhat
different from what was expected Based on the
facts contained in the despatch, the Word remark
on the authority of an American astrop omer, "To
say that the suns parallax has been ascertained
to be 9.24 seconds is to say that the sun distance
from us-is 22323 semi-diameters of the earth, or
So 4i3 726 miles. This is 6,926,27 miles less than
the distance made out from the observations OF
the last transit and three four millions less than
the results obtained by more recent measurement
If this ratio were constant we should require ,4i0
wears to overcome the entire distance and fall into
the sun; but as it is certain that our centripeal
motion would be vastly accelerated, continually as
we get closer within the sphere Of the suns at
traction, unless his forces should be proportionay
decreased or his volume reduced, ii is also proba-
BILE that we should consume very much less time
than is above given in making the tremendou,
Journey.

says that he has positive assurance that the July
interest on the Tennessee bonds will not be paid.
The State overdrew at least two thirds Of the
money used for payment of the July interest
amounting to $4,000. 1t will require until July
lst to make full settlement with the Fourth Ma
tional Bank of New York. The only way the in
terest can be met will be by making preferred
disposition indicating that the debts for current
expenses should be preferred. 1t is not likely
that the taxes will be increased, The only hope
of paying the interest seems to depend upon
whether the $40, 600, 900 of railroad property can
be made taxable

Sunday Dissertation.

MEssKs. EDITORS We have no reason TO doubt
but that the Sunday evening entertainment, about
which some correspondence has been exchanged
through your columns, was interesting and in
structive. We do not suppose it has injured any
one who heard it, and doubtless it has given much
reliable information concerning the Holy Land, a
subject which it is also true, any clergyman might
not unlikely touch upon in sermon We are quite
willing to grant all this {; but we at the same
time quite convinced in our minds that the prin-
cple which sanctions Sunday entertainments, even
OF the harmless character of the one in the present
instance is wrong II is true, various reas-
ons are urged in favor of q relaxation of Sunday
observances in large cities, which however falla-
cous, carry with them q show of justice. Still as
these do not apply to our community, we will not
review them, but sufficient for present pur-
pose, we will simply ask concerning these Sunday
entertainments, Cui Bono? Why should Sunday
evening be selected for this purpose, So far as
usage is concerned, usage lies against the practice
and common justice asks that some good reason be
given to show why the prevailing custom is inter
fered with. The burden of proof lies with him
who breaks in upon the settled religious habits of
the people. 1t is for him to show why he chooses
the one evening out Of the week, which by Divine
authority is devoted to distinctively religious ex-
ereses, and to quiet domestic recreation, for the
purpose Of presenting to the public an entertain
ment which is in no way connected with religious
worship, which is held in hall commonly devoted
TO secular uses, and where that which is seen
| and heard, however properand edifying, can hard
ly fail to take the character in the minds of those
who attend, of any public entertainment given on
a week day. Again he supposes that it will not be
denied that the chief purpose upon which the lee
ture is given, whether it be on Confucius or on
the Holy Land, is to raise money, which the lee
turer puts into his own pocket, all of which is
prsbably fair a business transaction. But why,
we ask, choose Sunday evening for business trans
| actions or for making money! This it will hard
ly require explaining is a very different matter
| t ON taking up a collection in church. Religious
organizations not sustained for the purpose Of
making money, but, as amongst other things, for
distributing ii, in the way of charity for support
of the Gospel. We think, then, that those who
| are putting forward Sunday evening entertain
| ments as means of edifcation to people,
ought, in all reason to clear the way of the obec-
tions, which, as yet, with many people, and per-
haps with the majority of religious people, render
them unwise and mex pedient, and until some good
and strong reason is shown why they should be
introduced we trust that all lovers of religion and
good order will withhold from them their sanction
| and support. CrsTos.

LOUISIANA.
The Louisiana Affairs.

New Orleans, January l6. Republicans here
sserts that the report of the Louisiana sub COM
mttee goes outside of the record and that no
testimony was brought before them to show
funding illegal legislative warrants for displace-
ment of Judges, by Kellogg or seizure of arms by
the police without process of law. They assert
that pacific evidence will be adduced to dIsprove
the other allegations OF the committee which they
say based solely on the briefs of democratic
counsel. The Picayune says: "At the State
House Kellogg has been closeted with Marshal
Packard and few Of the leading spirits of the
radical paty,t is supposed for the purpose Of con-
sutation to devise ways and means for bringing as
many witnesses possible favorable to their side
before the Congressional committee. The plan as
understood is TO summon one prominent republic
can from each parish, with accidental witnesses
from prtacularfpoints."
A Murder.
Clinton, January II. Friday evening last just
after dark as three negroes with thtir wa2 ons
loaded with shingles, had gone into camp about
six miles from Clinton, they were visited by white
men who were mounted, and who proposed buying
their shingles, when after few words one of the
white men pulled pistol and shot two of the ne
groes, killing them instantly. The third negro
escaped. From the evidence given at the cor
onors inquest the jury came to the conclusion
that the murders were committed by Lawson
Blunt posse have gone in pursuit OF them.

Regularity Brings VigOr.

Local irregu larties produce weakness Of the en-.
tire system. In order, therefore, to re'establsh
health and strength upon sure basis, these rreg-
ularities must be permanently overcome. Many
persons endcavor to reform them by remedies
which address themselves merely to the symptoms,
without affecting the cause. If such individuals
were to use instead Hostetter's stomach Bitters,
they would speedily appreciate the difference be-
| tween medicine which palliates, and one which
regulator of bodily disturbances restores the de
relct organs to an uninterrupted and healthy per-
Torrance OF their various duties, whereby alone
the system can recover its lost tone and vigor.
Hostetter's Btters are tonic medicine, but they
| are tonic which regulates ere they strengthen
| the system. l3Ian- teod&wlw
