A SYNDICATE of eminent financiers in
Europe have proposed to loan the State
of Louisiana S12, $50, 900, for which the
State must call in and pay off her pres
ent debt at par with interest to date OF
retirement. The State must then issue
the same amount of bonds to the syn
dictate, bearing 5 per cent. interest;
principal and interest made payable in
As years. Under this arrangement the
State would be required to pay only
about S55O,000 per annum on account
of principal and interest, instead OF
100000 now required to pay interest
on State bonds. 1t is believed, how
ever, that this proposition can not under
the Constitution and present State laws
be accepted.

CARLYLE on the Book of Job.

call the Book of Job, apart from att
theories about it, one of the grandest
things ever written with pen. One
feels, indeed, as if it were not Hebrew
such a noble universally, different from
noble patriotism or sectarianism, rcigns
in it. A noble book! All mems book!
1t is our first, Oldest statement of the
never-ending problem-man's destiny
and Gods ways with him here on earth.
And all in such free, flowing outlines;
grand in its simplicity, and its epic mel
ody, and repose of reconcilement. There
is the seeing eye, the mildly understand
ing heart. So true every way; true
eyesight and vision for all things no less
than spiritual; the horse-''hast thou
clothed his neck with thunder?"-he
laughs at the shaking of the spear. Such
living likenesses were never since drawn.
Sublime reconciliation; Oldest choral
melody as of the heart of mankind; so
soft and great as the summer night, as
the world with its seas and stars? There
is nothing written, think, in the Bible
or out of it, of equal literary merit.

The Commissioner of Patents has
completed his annual statement OF the
business of his Office during the past
year. The total receipts from October
!, 1876, to October 1, 1877, were S7O9,-
O44, and the expenditures for the same
time 1904 900, showing an excess Of re-
ceipts over expenditures of about
100000. The number of patents ap-
piled for was 1899; trademarks
registered, 1924; labels registered,
$40. The number of patents allowed
but not issued on account of failure to
pay the final fee, owing, it is stated, to
the severity of 1.-THE times, was 4,271.
Patents issued, 14,242; trademarks
and labels, 1917. This is a reduction
of about 10000 in the number of pat
ents issued as compared with the pre-
vious year. No radical change in the
