DEBrs.--Debts are stern realities, and
often darkly shadow existence. Through
HE warp Of life's silvety fabric they are
interviewer as black wool unwound
from the shuttle Of pride, extravaganza,
and want Of judgment, and even princi.
pie. 1t is more than doubtful IL any one
ever ought to go into debt Each can
and ought to earn enough for all necessi.
ties. Unnecessary and luxurious wants
may he lnbored for, but should never be
obtained through debt. When human
being 1. helpless and dependent, charity
should he extended, anil II should be con-
sideretl no dishon6r to receive 1t. The
whole ground IL covered by the Bible in
junction: "0we no man anything but to
love one nnOther"-freedom from in.
debtedness and Astounding in charity.
Debt discounts the future, wastes in the
present, and pays a high premium while
still carrying the risk. lts machinery
adds n new department to labor, with no
net advantage. Evils and evils only fol-
low in its train. The world would be the
better oil were it wiped from existence.

From the Cooperative News
We know Of an instance Of nm officer
in the United States navy who took our
advice in 1858, and planted an orchard Of
10 acres in oranges below New Orleans,
on small tract Of land which he pur.
chased for the purpose. lie set out two
year old trees, and until the war broke
out paid considerable attention to his
trees. lie then left it in charge Of an
old gardener. lie died Just after the war
closed, and his family having soon run
through with the few thousand dollars
he had left, his widow came to New Or.
leans to dispose Of the small tract Of land
on which the ten acres Of orange trees
were. She did not care to visit the place,
but was anxious to sell the properly in.
stantly for 5000 cash, though ii had cost
nearly $1,000 with the buildings. We
advised her brother to look into the mat.
ter little before selling. An invcstiga.
ton showed that The old gardener had
for several ycnrs been selling the crop OF
oranges for his own account at from 49,
600 to $1,000, and the brother actually
sold the crop then on the trees for $4,000,
for the oranges were Of the. best variety.
We cite this well.known instance to show
the value Of the crop.

ZIoH's HERALD, as the organ OF New
England MethOdism, e1poundS the
church position as to things agitated.
The New England church, it declares,
has not the slightest interest in the fiction
olWeslsys succession through bishop
ofCrete (which Bishop Haven is said to
believe in); ain her Judgment no special
grace attaches to the touch Of an episco-
pal hand. Her chiefs are not hedged
around, in her Imagination, with any
overawing dignity, nor invested with any
superhuman Powers.p All the PTesby-
terian or Congregational tingo in her
tastes has been "bleached out Of her
veins, " but she only prefers the episcopal
form Of government because it proves to
DO "thc most efficient, the most elastic,
the most liberal, the most conservative,
the strongest, the most democratic, las
administered by Methodists) and the
most economical plan of church order
that the ages have yet developed" There
is no danger that tho bishop will be re-
garded hereabouts as a superior order,
but the present bench Of bishops are very
fine men, who deserve the special respect
they have. The only question in debate
in New England, affecting in the slightest
degree the church order, is the one rela-
ting to the exercise Of the office Of pre-
siding elder; and the Herald observes that
10 the Yankee mind "it seems uneconomi.
cal to employ the time Of several Of her
leading ministers in visiting every three
months her appointments, and in simply
passing over well-trodden turnpike OF
questions admitting but Of one answer"
There ought to be some elasticity about
the matter. Each conference should de-
eide upon the number and Of It's own cid.
ers; and it is reasonable thing to have
them elected by the ministers instead OF
appointed by the bishop,

characterized as "the patient, abstemiouS
and laborous heir Of the Astor estate"
Mr. Astor had been carefully trained by
his father, John Jacob Aslor, to amass

II was his rule to buy city real estate
when he could get II cheap, and never to
sell any Of his houses or lots. lie

that the cost Of insurance on cd many

losses. lie held, also, to his fathers rule
not to build brown-stone houses, as they
were too extravngant. The brown.stonc
houses which he owned were built by
others, and they reverted to him on the
expiration Of leases. In 1870 Mr.. Astor
paid two million dollars in taxes on his

ANOTHER southern paper sees the
point. The New Orleans Times reminds
the white property holders Of the poliIi.
cal axiom that Discontinued and disaf.
iected class in the community is always
an element OF weakness and danger. The
negroes are in Louisiana, and to stay; the
State cannot spare them. Their good will
il mot to be despised." II they have
made serious mistakes in their first ex.
pefiments with the ballot, the fault has
largely lain dt the doors Of their bad adj
visers. Many Of them have behaved
very well. Any political reimbursement
that leaves the colored people with a
sense Of oppression and injustice will be,
to that extent, q mistake and failure.
"Wisdom suggests" says the Times, "that,
II a revolution occurs, II should leave
Louisiana without dissatisfied element
Of any magnitude" The more Of this
sort Of talk the Southern whites hear
from their home leaders and papers, Tor
next year or two, the better for the South
and the country.
