Business Revolution i'm NeWspapers.

The present is transition period in the
history of the press, and numerous changes
may reasonably be expected to occur in the
next five years. And the transition moves
upon complex reason. In the first place,
the party organ is going out. 1t has had its
day and exercised an important influence,
but it no longer meets the requirements of
the age In its place appears the independ-
ent newspaper the advocate of certain funda-
mental principles in politics, but not attached
to any party, and not under bonds to color
reports or make special pleas for this or that
party. That change has already been verv
important, causing the decadence of once
wealthy, widely circulated and influential
newspapers, and bringing into the front rank
comparatively new candidates for public favor
because they are conducted upon the correct
principle.
Those newspapers whose managers we're
sagacious enough to catch the drift of the age.
have found their advantage in passing from
the state of organs to that of independent
journals, and so have retained their place in
the ranks. Others have fallen behind and
must give place to those that press on. This
change accounts for many of the movements
among newspapers, but there is another still
more powerful This refers to the WAYS and
means Of journalism. The expense of conduct
ing first-class enterprising newspaper are
three times as large as they were fifteen years
ago. Everything has tended to increase the
outlay, without corresponding increase of
income. The result is that to-day q good
many well-conducted, substantial newspapers
are scarcely paying expenses, though they
may have been very profitable ten years ago

TO BRIDGE TIMBERS.
A GOOD MOVE BY THE NEW ORLEANS AND MO-
BILE RAILROAD COMPANY.

The New Orleans and Mobile Railroad Com
pany has recently purchased from a firm in
New York 10000 barrels OF creosote oil, to be
used for the protection of their bridge timbers
and piling against the attacks of the marine
worm, the teredo navalis. This transaction
illustrates the growth and progress of new
industry in this country. The teredo is so de-
structive to timber on the South Atlantic and
Gulf coasts that piling is frequently rendered
entirely worthless in the space of eighteen
months The use of the creosote oil to pre-
vent the attack and save the timber has long
been practiced in Europe, aud its efficacy has
been well proved. The New Orleans and
Mobile road is the first to make an extensive
experiment with the article in the United
States-N Y. Times.
1t gives us great pleasure to be able to
chronicle this act of praiseworthy enterprise
on the part Of the Directors of the Mobile
Railroad Company. It evinces disposition
to look after the safety of patrons of the
road in way which points clearly to a
proper appreciation of what has long been
great danger. The condition of
The bridge has caused much annoyance, and
his effort to render them perfectly safe will
greatly restore the confidence of the people |
n the road.

On Ascension Day there was a horrible row
IN Jerusalem between some Greek and Ar
menian priests who had been allowed by the
Latins to make use of chapel built over
what is believed to be the Saviour's footprint.
The quarrel arose on question of precedence,
and ended in fight. The priests went it
tooth and nail, P" fighting up and down the
sacred edifice with such fury that they had to
be separated by Turkish soldiers Two
Greek priests were wounded, and one of the
soldiers, In trying to restore peace, lost his
eye. The Mussulman population look upon
these sectarian shindies at Jerusalem as pecu-
liar illustrations of the brotherly love which is
the distinguishing mark of their Christian
fellow subjects.

INTERNAL SPORT.

| short time ago we read of the crimes and
practices of the boy murderer, Pomeroy. From
Plymouth, Mass, we now have the story Of
| three young scoundrels who found little boy
away from school, enticed him into boat and
made him sail with them in the harbor. When
away from shore they inflicted upon him all
manner of cruelty. They careened the boat
until it was partly filled. They took off his
clothes and made him jump overheard. They
beat and kicked him while in the water and
pretended to try to drown him. He was then
taken to the woods, where the process of ter
ror and torture were continued until dark.
All this was done apparently to crafty a
diabolical appetite for causing pain
Whether the perpetrators of this cruelty
were brought to justice or not is not related
Their crime, technically, was no more than
kidnapping and aggravated assault and bat
terry, but in the amount of damage done to
the moral constitution of the helpless child,
as we'll as the utterly depraved and inhuman
disposition manifested, the crime of this dia-
bolcal trio is scarcely less than capital. Ten
years confinement at hard labor would be but
a meagre retribution. If this is moral in
sanity they ought to be incarcerated until
time. reflection and hard work effect cure
Such diabolism is found at rare intervals in
individual cases; but that three young fiends
ike those who prosecuted little Barnes could
be found in the same town and so combine in
IN act of prolonged and atrocious cruelty
'eems to US something phenomenal and
strange. There must be something intrin-
cally wrong in the civilization which makes |
uch an exhibition possible in one of the |
most enlightened and cultivated communities |
N the green earth.
The strange crime is not reflection on
Jew England, but rather upon all Christen-
lom. In heather Athens boy was con-
emned by the Areopagus and executed for
'utting out the eyes Of bird for sport Wan
on cruelty ought to be classed among helm
us crimes.

THE ARMED STRENGTH OF EUROPE.

| lecture was recently delivered before the
Royal United Service Institution, London, in
which British officer gave detailed &C.
count of the standing armies and reserves
OF all the nations of Europe He said that,
looking at the armies of Europe from every
point of view, the rapidity with which thew
can be modified, fed from reserves, concen-
trated on any point and maintained on the
field, he should divide them into three class
es, in the order of their strength. The first
class comprised Germany, Austria, Russia
and France; the second Italy and England;
the third Belgium, Turkey, Sweden and
Norway, Holland, Denmark, Spain, Portu-
gal, Switzerland, Greece. There are four
armies of the first class, two of the second,
and nine of the third, with, in round
numbers, strength on paper of
seven and half millions of men and COM
blatant strength of five millions, with Is, 900
guns and million and quarter of horses
In navies Great Britain is supreme, and then
come in the order of strength France, Russia.
Turkey, Austria. Germany, Italy, Spain, Hol-
land, Denmark, Sweden and Norway, and
Portugal. The navies of all these have an
aggregate of 2,039 vessels, of which 2O9 are
the whole being manned with $780,
600 men and armed with $1,000 cannons.
One hundred and ten ships of war are now
being built, and of these Sc will be armor-
plated. The expenses of these forces amount |
according to this lecturers estimates to $3.50,

Our readers will be glad to see the item
which relates to crop prospects, but we think
it our duty to warn Lake Charles against in
creasing such expenses for election purposes,
as is shown by the appropriation passed
through its board.
When the people come to their own again
it is not impossible they may characterize
and treat as invalid all such evidences, or pre-
tended evidences rather, of Indebtedness.

OOO francs for bronze statue of Lafayette, to
be presented to the city of New York an an
expression Of gratitude for the kind feelings
of New Workers toward France throughout

represents Lafayette in his twentieth year,
was ready long ago, but no one volunteered
to pay the expense of boxing and shipping

Franchise de Harmonic, having ascertained
these facts, took the duty of shipment upon
himself, and the bronze arrived in New York

THE INSULT OFFERED THE GERMANS
AND JEWS.

The insult which the National Republican
the central organ of Radicalism at Washing
ton, intended to put upon Mr.. Nordhof
when it flung at him the epithet of "Dutcl
Jew, bids fair to come home to the Radica
party to roost.
Some Of the faithful are industriously try
ing to make it appear that Mr.. Nordhotf il
bis reply, set up claim to the ownership o
the German and Jewish voters, and tina
therefore the insult offered to those yer,
numerous classes by Nordhoff is greater thar
that offered them gratuitously by thu
"organ."
This is an exceedingly thin argument, and
will not be apt to deceive many thoughtful
persons, as the letter of Mr.. Nordhoff is MOI
susceptible of any such construction as thai
placed upon it by these fearful Radicals; and
the attempt to cover up and put out of sight
the slur cast upon the Germans and Jevs by
their laundering and malignant organ will, we
take it, not be attended with any marked de-
gree of success.
The paragraph which it is attempted to tor
ture into claim of ownership by Mr.. Nord-
hoff is this:
'tIs it not an insane folly to let your official
organ, under your very nose, fling cautious
insult in the face of several hundred thousand
German and Jewish voters? Do you really
want to drive these voters away from the Re-
publican ranks ?"
This was very proper and very natural
r1n1or he nIr octo
fear excited in the mind of the "organ" and
its supporters by this very pertinent interrog-
atory is what has occasioned all the splutter
Take away from the Republican party the
votes of those citizens who are spitefully and
called "Dutch Jews by the Ma.
ional Republican, and it would meet suddenly
he doom which may, under other circum-
Stances be deferred, but which is inevitable
1evertl.
The assumption of indignation at the pre-
umed attsmpt on the part of Mr.. Nordhoff
o lay claim to the personal ownership of so
arge vote is amusing when we consider the
nsolent effrontery with which the Radical |
'arty sets up claim to the ownership of the |
olored vote of all the Southern States, and |
nore especially of Louisiana and South Caro-
ina. 1t is part of the political creed of
very Radical that the negroes and their
are owned by the party. that every
egro voter mast vote the Republican ticket.
nd that in point of fact he does vote that
cket. Such is their mistaken faith in this
natter that when the regular returns show IN |
,e contrary, they Immediately bring the Re-
lrning Board to bear TO correct the manifest
'ror. Not by their old masters was so abso-
tie claim of ownership Of negroes made, as
now set up by their pretended friends, the
adicals and Carpet baggers.
