tn" respect and friendship of all
honorable citizens.
But, nnlapiIl.y for them, there
are too many Young mel devoted
to the bad habits and drmora|izinr
passions which inevitably ruin a
people or a race.
Beware, young men.
II you have ln other Gods to wor.

The public schools Of the par
ish Of st. James have been mosneu
tarily closed.
The cause Of it is the want of mo.
llcy.
The State collectors have not
been very successful in collecting
the taxes for the year, aud, nc,
cording to al! probabilities, will not
succeed III %col}tctin. them before the
end OF the year.
But as soon as the school Trrasu.
rs will have money enough to run
the said schools, the teachers will
receive from the secretary of the
Board the notice to resume then
task ana duties,
And we hope sthat this will be
sOon.
But when we sec the. poverty of
the people, the Indebtedness of the
state. the almost impossibility OF
collecting taxes, we do not under.
stand what the Gloim .lrpublicars
mean when they pledge their honor
or the payment OF the State debt.
