NEW ORLEANS HOMESTEAD ASSOCIATIONS
reference to our advertising columns on the
fifth page will afford the public as well as the
stockholders of this Association, interesting
information. The stockholders will be pleased
to see that they have elected as Directors

objects of the company, and perfectly compe-
tent to administer its affairs satisfactorily; and
the public will perceive the high estimate in
which those gentlemen are held by the stock.
holders-for all but one, (and he flls o va
cancy), have been reelected. The stockholders
will be gratied to have an exhibit which
they can refer to at will, and the public
pleased to know that, even in such depressed
times as these, some institutions are prosper

so hattering statement for an Association

admirably Notwithstanding the general
stringency which has prevailed during that
period.

brighter days, when business shall revive with
the establishment of good government, and
when associations like the New Orleans Home

| OF course these reflections will not have
marked effect on all or most of the child
rem and could be easily dissipated by a
little reflection. They might rememb Der, for
instance, that the reason of the law is to
preserve its fairness as between the sects,
but great many of them will never take
that antidote to the poison. They will
simply i'm bibe at school the conviction that
religion is practically of no importance,
and acquire the habit of totally forgetting
all about it. They will see the laws OBJ
livion of God and construe that oblivion
as contempt.
This is exactly what Atheists would most
prefer next to the active propaganda of
their doctrine of scorn and unbelief. They,
too, have doctrine on spiritual questions,
doctrine which they strive with burn
ing zeal to propagate. They are sect
religious or irreligious, it matters not-and
as such cannot be hurt by the total exclu-
sion of God from the schools. On the con-
trary, the whole operation of that exclu-
sion, wherein it has any influence, will be
in their favor.
No wonder, then, that Atheists, Free
thinkers and Free Masons are every |
where strongly in favor of non-religious
State schools And no wonder that Catho-
lies, and all right minded men generally, !
shun them as traps invented by the Devil
