A CRUMB OF COMFORT.

Act No. ; of tho late extra session, "To
reduce the expenses Of public printing ETC.,
has been Promulgated and is now part OF
the "laws of the land" l. restricts the pub
LEGATION of legislative proceedings and of the
statutes to the official journal published at
the seat of government, and thereby takes
from a multitude Of Radical country papers
the chance of drawing rations from the State
Treasury. This printing OF statutes II
sundry country papers was q Radical IN
vention for tue support Of party organs
and for the dissemination OF Radical doc
trines among such negroes as can read, or
such as can find any white person to read to
them. The consequence was that III many
places where mono but Democratic papers
were before published, there suddenly APP
peared o variety Of Radical organs to scatter
the seeds Of dissension and discomfort Now
that the State is no longer to be taxed to keep
them alive these minor organs will be obliged
to fall back on school money. parish
funds and fees from tax-collectors and other
officials. These resources falling, the Frog
town Elgle must give forth its dying scream,
the Scamp Bugle blow its final blast, the Ali
gatorville Chronicle record its own dying
declaration, the Prairie Ranger turn its pony
out to grass, and the Bill of the Woods cease
from its weekly bellowings.
Thisis matter Of few thousand dellars only,
butitis the beginning Of reform ofthat wicked
practice by which the property of the people
of oil parties is taxed to support the organs Of
one party. The time will come when the
honest people of Louisiana will no longer be
forced TO pay money into ths State and city
treasures to support the journals which
deride. Islander and Insult them. This is step
in the right direction, which stimulates the
hope that something better Of the same sort is
IN store for us next year. The saving by
this step will balance considerable fraction
Of the sum called for to meet the expenses of
the extra session.

JoI,n Stuart Mills Idea Of God.

The thought OF God is a flash of light III
th;cl, darkness. The mystery of nature is not
eyaded by atheism, which only shuts its eyes
to what theism very dimly sees. In the
silence OF lonely thought, in the hard expert
ences Of life, it is to some Of us 9 renewal OF
strength, to feel. though we cannot see, q
presence pervading all things, and sharing
the innermost life Of our own being. Nature
is no stepmother to her children. Whispers
md hints Of the love she bears US reach us
we scarce know how. Dreams and visions OF
the poet, true to the soul as are the rigorous
demonstration of science to the intellect,
awaken a consciousness Ct the unity between
our own nlrrow, restricted lite and the uni
vers il life that knows no bound.
Well the an tents speak of the earth as
"mother Father and mother thus
Theodore Parker delighted to address God.
Imperfect and incomplete as all such it'll
are-nay, worthless US are all titles tor Him
they do nevertheless suggest a oneness be-
tween the human heart and the heart OF ma
ture, which becomes music and inspiration in
every poetic soul. 1t sings of a love that IS
feebly Swallowed forth by human ties-of a
De ace that transcends our human dreams
Of holiness that cannot be measured by
human sanda -ds-ot a wisdom that cannot
be sounded by human plummets. Science
can never disprove this melody to one that
once has heard il; and she will never seriously
undertake so fruitless task.
l care nothing for the name-you may call
it nature, or God, or what you please; but
there is in the higher and finer expressions of
human life consciousness so profound OF
oneness with the One and All, that 1t becomes
the supreme, the sacred fact. It is the study
of this internal yet most real of realities that
gives origin to The idea of God; and perish

Capt. Jno. Kountz and Capt. W. I. Scovell,
proprietors of the Canal street ferry, called
upon us yesterday to say that the report
in reference to the captiin of the Canal street
ferryboat having been offered remuneration
to succor the drowning people last Friday
during the fatal steamboat confagration, and
having refused the leave the wharf. is without
foundation in fact and probably emanated in
malice. Capt Scovell will, We learn, make a
statement before the Local Inspectors, who
are now investigating the matter, and he
claims he will show that no blame can pos
sibly attach to himself or his steamer.

How ''High" Was That /!
I'M. d. C. in Cincinnati Commerce

M ~ " III SluSAuudt Sou1HASLSldiJ
Entering St. 3 rtholomew's, at Brighton,
one must say it is far more Catholic than the
interior Of many Continental churches.
Forty feet up above the altar is large cross
with the dead Christ on it, carved and paint
ed with CHASTITY realism; wide steps ascend to
an altar as gorgeous as can be shown in any
Catholic church in England; on the altar
are three huge seven br4nched candle
sticks and vases of flowers; over the step.
leading to it hang the seven apocalyptic
lamps. 4 red cord separates the profane of
the nave from the holy ofli :iators at the sacri-
fee in the chancel.
At the east end of the church is Lady
Chapel, with large oil painting OF the Nlr-
gin and child, before which picture kne-llng
cushions are placed. And this is church OF
England regularly recognized. The earnest
and able Mr.. Wagner, who has spent his ior-
tune and his talents on these things, has ac-
Iuired an influence in Brighton which al the
eloquence OF +. W. Robertson, during the
many years Of his labors in the same COM nu-
nifty, tailed to gain for him. Tie chu,ch III
which Robertson uttered his grand ci>coUrses
was then, as now. more like Il dismal q laker
meeting house than anything else. Archl-
tectural beauty and wealth itself seem TO BE-
ebbing away from old-fssAioned English
churcusm; but as to the particular shore to
which their tide is setting, there are tSo OF
three opinions.

The Little Girl Student.

What picture she presents. Her love OF
appreciation has been awakened, and she be-
gins to yearn for praise. Her object now is
to show what industry can do, and she is de-
sirous of standing first in her class when she
returns to say by ro:e the task whose Difficult.
tie, she has contrived to overcome. But to
make assurance doubly sure, and test her
memory, she has retired from the clamor OF
the family circle and the companionship of
her playmates to con over, word for word,
and sentence for sentence, the les son
which she is to repeat at school to her gentle
mentor, in the presence of the whole assem-
blage Of approving and, perhaps. envious
competitors.
As the ordeal may be trium phantly or un-
successfully passed through, SO will be the
Joy or sorrow Of her young and expectant
heart o. that genial, open countenance the
word "fail is not inscribei. See what an
air of conidence-what smile of cumulative
pride suff lses it, rs she mentally tests the
correctness of her memory, and finds out
whether it has been faithful or ire acherous to
the trust she has reposed in it. There is in her
face breathing reliance on self. 1t shows its
belief in the intellectual ray with which it is
illumined, and which manifests the dawn of
reason and the play of the Imagination, in
wardly working out the problem of her fu-
ture, dependent as it will be for good or evil
upon the way the faculties are educated,
even in the humble circle where she is placed
in competition.

Dangerous Concessions.

Unquestionably, popular education
is an important plank in the Repub-
lican platform. That our common
school system receives no detriment,
rests as an obligation upon that party.
| do not assert that the Democratic
party is, as party, hostile to the pub
lie schools; but it is Obvious that ed
ucation is not leading interest with
the Democratic party, and neyeI has
been, and that all the opponents of
the common schools are In the DEM
ocratic organization, while the Re
publicans have in their ranks none
but friends. The Democratic party
is frantic for political power, and has
the reputation of not scrupling at the
means Of getting it. In desperate
struggle for Office, it might possibly
make dangerous concessions to its
allies against the schools-a thing
which the Republicans could meyer
do, though forever excluded from
political power. The political alli,
ance between the Democratic leaders
AID the Catholic clergy has two OBJ
jects. On the part ofthe Democratic
leaders, the object is political power;
on the part Of the clsrgy. it is Il rad
icai change in the consultation and
Of the comon school, or their
sboli,ion.-Judge Mtt.
