A NEW religious sect has started
in Eaton county, Michigan. 1t is
composed of dissenters from all
faiths, and Is known as the Living
| Church of God" These new re-
ligionists profess to be possessed of
some momentous secrets as to the
coming end of the world, but they
work in secret and practice the
greatest secrecy in admitting new
members. They discard the New
Revision, and twelve inspired elders
are engaged on Bible which will
be placed alone in the hands of the
faithful. A new departure is evident
in the fact that the ministers
perform their religious duties with
out compensation, being supplied
alone with food and clothing. The
members are banded together as
communists. all worth $4,000
putting property together un-
der one control and dividing profits.
They marry but once, and divorce
or separation is not permitted. Any
difficulties arising in families or be-
tween members are submitted to
the twelve elders, from whose de-.
cision there is no appeal. They are
very simple in their dress and mode
of life. The men wear their hair
cut short and faces smoothly
shaven, and the women wear only
their natural hair, which hangs
loosely down their backs. They are
industrious and frugal, and said to
be increasing in numbers and accu-
mulating much property. They
observe strictly a number of holy
days, and also Saturday and Sum-
day of each week as days of rest.

glory.

IT now appears that Capt. Eads
has only twenty-five feet of water
at the mouth of the Mississippi, and
it is even probable that deep water
will be obtained sooner at the mouth
of the Brazos than at the mouth of
the Mississippi.

1T appears to be the general opin-

WHAT GLADSTONE SAYS.

LONDON, October 2S.-Mr. Glad
stone, in course of his reply to the
address presented TO him at Knour-
ly yesterday, said the point was
whether Ireland is to be governed by
laws made by parliament, or by
laws known to nobody except a few
persons and enforced by illegal arbi-
traiion and self-appointed censors
which sought 10 override by or
ganlzed force the free will of Irish
men. 1t was a question between
law and chaos. No fewer than thir-
ty thousand forms have been issued
under the land act, he said, and this
led him to anticipate future peace
and prosperity.

the Mexican roads will be delivered at New
Orleans and reshipped from here to their
point of destination.
1t was further stated on authority which
may be conside cd perfectly reliable that one
OF the largest barge lines in our river hss
already made contracts up to June, 1857, for
the transportation Of rails ED other iron
from New Orleans up the river, which will
bring their full carrying capacity into requi-
sition.
Hence it would appear that II may be
taken for granted cur Mississippi barge lines
will not want up freight during the coming
year. This, OF course, will enable them, il
required to put Gown their grain freight to
SO low figure thai competition by northern
and wetern railroads will be simply impos'
sible. All of our barge lines We are in
formed, have recentlysa1ded materially Ia
their tonnage capacities, aud these will be
further enlarged rs rapidly as the exigencies
of the service may rtquira.
The impetus thus given 10 our up'river
barge Transports ion must assn ,edly work
for coed. In giving increased means OF
transportation IL must insure the lowest
possible rate of freight and when il is
found that all the goods imported from
abroad that now come through our gres,
selports on the Atlantic coast, and 60 10
supply the wants or luYuries of the west,
can be brought at alower rate by way OF
the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi
river, they will assuredly come this way.

To the Editor of the HERALD.
The state of Texas. especially the north
ern portion of it, is enjoying an era of pros
perity now that she has never known before.
More enterprises are on foot more improve
ment Is going on, more money is being
spent in this state than any other of the
western or southwestern states. Railroads
are being built all over our state. Manufac.
tories are spripging up everywhere. Emf.
grafton Is pouring in more rapidly than ev. r,
and Texas is being favorably advertised.
The advantages Of her climate, her soil and
the beauty of her scenery have now become
byword, not only in this country, but 10
Europe as we'll. There is no doubt that all
this is due to the ell, CT Of railroad enterprise
The different railroad companies in the state
have taken steps to advertise her
advantages on every hand
They will at no distant day place her in d.
rect communication with Mexico and the
Central American states and South America.
If nothing 10 done to clog her railroad enter
prise and her manufacturing interests. the
day is not far distant when the state ST Texas
will be no mean rival 10 point of business

UBIQUITOUS railroad measure introduced in

This idea of regulating freight according
