INFLUENCE OF NEWSPAPERS.

The Boston Traveller states that school
teacher who had the benefit of long practice
of his profession, and had watched closely
the influence of newspaper upon the minds
of a family of children, gives as result OF
his observation that, without exceptions, those
scholars of both sexes and all ages who have
access to newspapers at home with those who
have not, are:
1. Better readers, excelEng in pronuncia-
,ion, and consequently, read more understand
inSly.
Cd. They are better spoilers, and define
with ease and accuracy.
3. They obtain partial knowledge OF
geography in almost half the time it requires
others, as the newspaper has made them
familiar with the location Of important places
and nations, their governments and doirgs.
4. They are better grammarians, for
having become familiar with every variety
of style in the newspaper, from commonplace
advertisement to the finished and classical
Grafton of the statesman, they more readily
comprehend the meaning of the text, and
consequently analyze the construction with
accuracy.

1t is certainly encouraging to notice the
benefcent results of the change in our political
affairs. The press all over the country are
fast growing into a healthier state of Journal
ism. The leading articles in newspapers
appear now in the interest of agriculture and
commerce, and upon subjects material to the
upbuilding of permanent prosperity in the
land. II is rather awkward work for a while
for an army veteran to sheath his sword aud
take the plow handles-so it is with the
editorial corps after the fierce political struggle
through which we have just passed. 1t is a
journalistic province to work as the exigencies
of the times requires.-pienna Sentinel.
We do find it an uphill business to lay
aside the old armor and weapons Of warfare,
and don the gear of the agriculturist, 10 change
our talk of the great principles Of the politi-
can for thatof fine stock and the productions
OF art, although it is more congenial with our
feelings; but we hope soon to be able to
adap, ourself to the new order of things, and
do az good and more profitable work in this
new field of labor as we did in the old.

later and longer perfection, though not so

some women are alIectionaie, indeed, but
humble and beseeching, like the appearance
of 4 forget-me-not; while some other women
will look the world full in the face and persist

while another has no natural expression

flowers are best in plot by themselves, and
some women flourish in celibacy best, but

We hear no complaints of sickness in this

HOW THE NEWS Is RECEIVED.

The Republicans of this city are nat
urally very much elated over the cheering
news from Washington. Like watchers
who have long waited for the first streak
of light, they hailed the award in the
Florida case as the promise of the coming
day, and now accept the decision of yes
terday as a full confirmation of their
hopes.
The Democrats, on the contrary, pro-
TESS to be stunned by the sudden and I'M
expected disaster, which they begin at
last to see has overtaken them. The
masses of that party have no doubt been
cruelty deceived by the sensational extras
which have almost hourly been sent out
by their press. Everything in the sem
blance of straw, from Judge Chhords
appetite to the coating of Matt Carpen-
ter's stomach has been set up as a marker
in evidence of the progress of the Demo-
cratic cause. When forced to abandon
one position they have instantly seized
another equally untenable, until now
nothing remains but threat to resort to
force. Sooner or later the question will
be presented to the Democrats of this
State, whether to surrender and give uI
the struggle, or to initiate the fol.
lies of 1861 and seek TO gair
by force what they have failed &c
F,sr1.y tn, This ,Nhaca Of fhe
contest the Republicans have no advice
to offer. The Democrats will be permit
ted to choose their own line of action
We only stipulate that they shall at thu
same time accept all the responsibilities
If they decide to again engage in con
fiet with the law and the right-none til,
less right because founded on might-ant
come out worsted, as they did before, VI
hope they will not lay the blame upol
their conquerors.
We have, however, enough confdenc'
in the good sense of the conservative ele
ments in the Democratic party to warran
the belief that they will listen to NOR
moderate counsels.
The time has come for the Republican
to begin work. There is enough of it t
keep them busy for the next few weeks
Nothing of importance has yet been don
in the way of legislation, in consequence
of the distractions which have bee
thrown in the way by the Democrat
party. With the dissolution of the statg
quo, which may now be expected at an
moment, we hope all the members Of tn
Legislature will apply themselves to th
business before them, and attend at one
TO the long neglected affairs of the Stat

TIE LEGITIMATE FRUITS.

The first response we hear from the
Democrats about the attempted assassin
alton of the Governor, is that they con-
denim the act. It looks little singular
to us that the runners, strikers and hired
buglers of the whole country should join
in such a chorus. Is it possible that the
character of that party has sunk SO low
in the public estimation that it becomes
necessary, upon the commission Of q
great crime, to make formal profession
of disapproval lest the 10 should pre-
vail that the leaders, at least, were in
completely with the perpetrators?. He
that defends before he is accused con-
dennis himself
We may pass over several little local
circumstances as suspicious, but not con-
elusive, and find enough in the general
teachings of the Democratic party in this
State to arouse a spirit of murder in a
half crazy enthusiast. Political nomen-
olature has so long reached the superla-
tive degree Of explosives that 1t is very
difficult for experts to determine whether
the speakers and writer's are merely in
dulgiDg in figures or expect their lam
guage to be interpreted literally. For in
stance, if the Republicans were to exhort
the down-trodden of their party to arouse
against their oppressors with the torch
and the knife, it would not be sufficient
that they afterwards protested ignorance
Of the agents thus brought into action and
condemn their acts. Doubtless the man

SUGGESTIONS ADOPTED.

Some months ago the Picdyuns sug-
gested a valuable use for suicides. It was,
in effect, that when a man had no longer
any use or place in the world, and had
determined on quitting it, he should, at
least, render society the service Of putting
out Of the way some political offender
especially obnoxious to himself or his
friends Without reference to this arti-
Gle, it is in our memory that a playful
allusion was made to the especial service
Of taking some Radical into eternal
punishment along with each mailman
who had made up his mind to 90 that way
any how. The person who attempted
to assassinate Governor Packard. Who

WHAT OUR PRESS THINKS OF POLITICAL
ASSASSINATION.

"Despotism tempered by assassination"
has long been the recognized rule Of Tur-
key, but the attempt to justify resort to
this infamous remedy under q constitu-
tional government would be a shameful
surrender of republican institutions, and
an acknowledgment that an irresponsible
autocraey is better form of government
than that which freemen make by con-
tract with the political agents who admin
lister their laws. Heretofore the American
people have been singularly free from re-
sort to this crime. The first century Of
the republic has rolled sway with but a
single assassination Of an executive officer.
In Louisiana there have been two at
tempts to assassinate the Governor Of the
State, occurring within the present
and past terms Of administration.
When we contrast the population
Of the Union with that Of the State,
Il might be inferred that this
remedy for political grievance is regarded
with more liberation here than elsewhere.
Gsieyously A. the Republicans have sui
fered from violence and abuse at the
hands 81 a band Of desperate political as

notions from the teachings of the Church
all through the course of his life. The
Church, in the seventeenth century, as
the Democratic party in the nineteenth,
made such haste to disavow the horrid
deed and its author that ill-natured sus-
picions were aroused and many students
of history yet believe that Henry ". lost
his life through the direct instigation of
prelates high IN authority.
There seems to be an expectation of i'm
pending evil in the minds Of very many
apparently well informed people. Ru-
mors of intended violence are literally in
every mans mouth. Upon the very eve
of the attempt upon his life prominent
Republican was assured by two different
persons that Governor Packard you'd not
live twenty-four hours. another Demo-
crat yesterday wanted to bet his life Pack
ard would never live to be Governor As
it is probable these knowing ones will be
sent for, their description is withheld at
present
1.-THE Democratic party really condemns
such acts, they should frown upon the
teachings which inevitably lead up tc
them. A community can not break down
the barriers of public virtue by melting
men to commit crime and then expect nc
fruit to grow from it. If the participants
in the Grant parish, Red River, Constants
and other tragedies had been bluntly ap
preached with proposition to murder
their victims, they would doubtless have
recoiled at the idea, and retorted that they
were not hired assassins. Bat wher
they were educated to look upon it in the
light of patriotic duty and made to be
lieve that their dreadful deeds would bt
gilded with the approval of public senti
ment, they became fiends and tried fol
the prize. We know the result. The poo
victims were hurried into unknown
graves while the survivors received tht
ovations of the people who protested tC
abhor murder.
Public sentiment is again developing {
new crop of assassins, and should, o
course be prepared to be very mucl
shocked, you know, to find that poo
lunatic individuals will sometimes tax,
society at its word and go forth to sla!
innocent men and expect patriots guer

ton, this, in common with other civilized
communities, denOunces assassination,
knowing we'll that neither reform nor ius-
tice is secured in that way. Yet, in the
present critical situation, this reckless at
tempt of an irresponsible criminal. from the
Lord knows where, will be laid to our
charge by at least half the country with as
much unotiOn as fit had been unanimously
resolved upon, and with as much damage to
us, we fear, as If we were really to blame
for it.
Thus far we have seen no indication
that the Democracy is responsible for en-
no such charge or intimation. We can
not be provoked to such charge even by
the brutal allegation that the Republicans
have attempted the life of their own
leader. 1t is, however, proper that the
American people shall see how this deed
is viewed here where it has occurred.
We are satisfied that the balance of re-
spectacle sentiment condemns such
crime. But some of the ultra partisans
of Dem ocracy consider this crime natural
in stranger who feels the wrongs of
Louisiana more sensitively than her own
citizens do
For ourselves we await further develop
ments, but feel confident that whatever
may be the palliation offered by violent
men here, the public sentiment of the
world will adjudge this attempt to solve
the political difficulties by assassination
as objectionable as the effort to bulldoze
the tim;d and bride the venal, which has
characterized the campaign policy of the

The Picdyone apologies for the das-
tardly attempt to murder Governor Pack
ard, by calling it an "alleged" attempt.
The same paper subsequently expresses
some doubt whether there was any such
assault with murderous intent as the
whole land has been excited about for a
day or two. Never mind, neighbor, the
news will come to you in little while.
Slow, but sure, is good motto, when it
is not carried too far.
