THE RAILROAD WAR
Louisville Post.

The war in New Orleans rates be<
tween the L. & n. and the Chicago,
st. Louis X New Orleans lines affords
no new facts to day. Mr. Atmore,
the l.. d n. passenger agent, has gone
to Chattanooga, and has not made
public his next move. 1t is said,
however, that he means TO be very vie
cious, and will make havoc right in
the enemy's strOnghOlds. Among
other things, it is stated that the rate
from New Orleans to st. Louis and
return will be put down to 81. st.
Louis has not been considered COM
petitive point heretofore.
The most exasperating, because the
unfairest, thing the Great Jackson
route has done in the war with the
l.. u n. was the almost unlimited
shape in which it announced to sell Its
reduced rate tickets. They are good
until March 81, 1881. Even if the
two roads were to find it to their mu-
tual interest to cease the warfare but
little could be accomplished in the
face of the outstanding of such tick.
cts. To issue them was foolish, be-
cause entirely unnecessary. 1t was a
piece of that kind of spite-work that
cares nothing for the doer Of it, so long
as the enemy is worried.
The Great jackson route embraces
the oldest road Que of New Orleans.
The officers have long lived there and
are popular. Owing to these facts
the sympathies Of New Orleans peo-
pie are generally with the home con-
Germ in the war with the l.. IL N,
which is new conner with an entsg-
prise that is not vet fully appreciasW
The Mobile Il New Orleans road pre-
vious to It's purchase by the l.. IL n.
WAS managed in an easy sort of way
by men who were content to get the
scraps of business left by the Great
Jackson line, but the l.. d \. goes in
for its full share and this helped to
stir mp the animals.
Before the l.. d n. got a through
line 10 New Orleans its liberality to
the Great Jackson route was almost
phenomenal, i'll view of the refusal of
the latter line to reciprocate. Great
jackson sleepers and freight were ia
ken and delivered at Milan, although
the traffic tor Memphis from the latter
line was persistently given to the
Memphis Il Charleston road, instead
of being turned over to the l.. q n.
mt Milan. In response to protest,
the managers Of the Jackson rou
said "they had Il perfect right to do
business their own way, without any
questions" Their words have since
come home to roost.

The principal articles in the British
Quarterly Review for July, just pubs
lished by the Leonard Scott Publish>
ing Co., Il Barclay Street, New York,
are: Father Curci's New Translation
of the Gospels" "Religlon and Nor
ality," Evolution Viewed in Relation
to Theology" and "Inspiration.' The
number of this Review for October,
1879, under the heading "The Vati-
can and Civilization" contained an &C.
count of Father Curci and his expul-
sion from the Company of Jesus, and
the present article announces the ap-
pearance ola new version of the New
Testament by that celebrated writer,
but confines its comments mainly to
the preface, which explains the met /.
cd pursued in the preparation of the
translation and notes, and sets forth
the state of things iii the Romish
Church which has rendered his work
urgently necessary.
Religion and Morality" aims to in.
vestigate the nature of the difference
between the religious and moral sense
and to determine whether morality
can be so Independent of religion as
to be secure OF preservation without
its sanction.
Evolution Viewed in Relation to
Theology" Is review of Habit and
Intelligence by j. i. Murphy. The
writer of the article does not propose
to discuss the general theory of evo-
luton, but limits himself to pointing
out the significance of the modification
of Darwin theory by the author. Mr.
Murphy considers that the process of
evolution cannot be adequately ac-
counted for by "natural selection;"
that further agency-an "organiz-
ing intelligence"-is required.
The article on "Inspiration" is in,
tended to elucidate the question,
"What is the basis of belief on which
the Christian now stands, processing
to hold in his hand the Word of God,
and appealing to the world around
him to accept the message of life
clothed in the language of a written
revalation?" In the course of it
very clear summary is given of the
testimony which sustains the canoni-
cal authority Of the books of the Old
and New Testaments.

A Bird Romance,
Murfreesboro News.


Miss Mary A. Kerr, of this city,
has a redbird which she has had as
pet for about eight years. Monday
morning while this little captive was
singing sweetly of fields and flowers
far away, female redbird was at
tracted by the notes, which, bright
and happy as they seemed, bore to
the ears Of the free-winged birding
the minor strains Of Il tender melan-
choly that aroused her deepest sympa-
thy. Flying to the cage she chatted
confortingly to the captive whose
piteous tale quite won her heart. The
next morning she brought him a nice
worm, and took in return q few
crumbs from his cage. Every day
she came to this love feast, and her
visits became more frequent, until at
last unwilling TO remain a single hour
from him, and preferriag captivity to
Liberty without him, she managed last
Friday morning to force open the lit
tie door Of the cage and incarcerate
herself with her lover. Happily
mated, she remains contented a vol
untary prisoner, willing to give up
the freedom of field and forest for the
sake of her captive knight. The bird,
who is the object Of such unselfsh de-
votion, reciprocates the affection, but
he no longer sings. Mayhap his feel
ings are now too deep for utterance.
and the song with which he once
cheered his solitude is now forgotten
in the trui;ion of happiness 1t is q
pretty tale of bird love and 3 true
one.

Too Much Independence.

W" clip from tho Grconvillo Doilv
NcMs two letters on tho situation, one
from Senator Hampton and tho other
nom Colonel Aiken. Senator Hamp-
ton strikes the true key. Wo can at
present see no reason whatever for
abandoning the National Democracy.
Wo have already expressed dissent to
Colonel AikcM's views. Wo must say
that ho is consistent at nny ratio, and in
this hc has somewhat the advantage
of the Neics a"d Courier on this issue.
No true patriot believes in following
the dictates Of blind partisanship; but
there arc issues Of principle on which
party lines should bc strictly drawn.
Tho trouble is that few Of tho Demo-
Gratis have been too independent in
some OF these worry vital issues. If
there DO any Democratic principle a:
all, 1t certainly is that the National
administration ought aot to crush out
local sentiment by means of assess
mcnts wrnng from partisan clerks,
who live Oh salaries paid not by u
party but by the whole people. Yet
Democratic Congressman defeated q
bill introduced to prevent this. And
Indian" told the result. When cycrv
man is left to decide for himself what
Is principle and what is partisan
trickcry, tho National Councils will
not always be guided by wisdom.
