for two years before a constitutional

o the sentence which says: "The
Introduction Of amendments or of other

conducive of no good, but Of harm, and
would perhaps delay final action upon

Is it not altogether probable that if the
democrats in congress see an attempt to
enter a wedge, which will result in the
final addition Of four and perhaps six
republican senator's, and three or more
representatives, that they will resist the
first move with all the power they can
command. 1t il only a fair probability
that is now offered for our admission al

the government a great deal of money.
The credit Of the government was
never SO good before as at this mo-
ueut. Numerous parties have already
written the Secretary that they would

in lieu of six, and tie Secretary is
confident nearly all Of them will DO 50

moderately successful. In both tn

The advertisements in newspaper
are more read than the thoughtless
imagine. They are a map of class
of meu's capabilities io life. The
man who couteu'plates doing business
in distant town takes up the local
paper and in its advertising columns
sees true picture of the men he has
to deal with; complete record of the
town, its commerce. its trade, the IA
cilities of storekeeping, its banks, and
in almost every case he can estimate
the character Of the men who are So
Letting the public patronage. The
advertising pages are u:ap OF the
town, a record Of its municipal charac'
ter, a business confession of the citi-
zens, and Instead Of being an optional
production of man, it is fTeighted
with the life-tboughts Of a huudred.

Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON. D. c.,

April II, 1881.
Yesterday there were rumors Of an
agreement between Senators, BY which
business could be proceeded with, but
little credence is given them. To all
appearances the Senate will sit until
December, vote every day not to 60
iuto executive session, aud listen to
long speeches. Of all the speakers so
far heard, since the Hill and Malone
debate some weeks ago, those of Sena-
tors Beck and Vest have attracted
uost attention. 1t clearly justi6es all
the Democrats are doing, and exposes
the inconsistencies of the position
taken by many Republican Senators.
Of this speech very large number
will be printed for distribution.
1t has ali along seemed to NE that

TO cali the six and FIVE per cent.
bonds-some seven hundred millions
or more Of them-when he had not
and knew he had not and could not
have money to redeem them, partook
somewhat of the nature of Wall Street
stock gambling. The Secretary be-
l;eves, of course, that the holders of
these bonds will, rG.her than take the
chances Of having their particular
bonds fall among the comparatively
few which the Secretary can redeem,
accept an Interest much less than the
face of the bonds promises. Iu fact
the Secretary bets that not more of
the bonds will be presented for re-
demption than he can redeem, which
is about one fourth of them. The
scheme is an improper one. It is
doubtful, too, 10 matter what the
Attorney General may say, if the Sec
retary has any right to adopt rate Of
interest not known to any obligation
of the government, more especially as
both House aud Senate have just
empbaticslly declared for a lower rate
than he proposes to pay. However,
the Secretary's scheme, if successful,
and if boudholders do not hereafter

In A., one of Florida seaport
towns, there lived 10 ante bellum days,
wealthy but very eccentric old gen.
tleman, who on one occasion being
quite sick, awoke his wife 10 the mid
die of the night, with tremendous
uproar. To her anxious Inquiry as to
the cause of his excitement, he testi
u replied that, che had not thought
much about his illuess, until he had
just happened to remember that, in
case lie should die, the to1rn could
not afford a decent cotin in achlch TO
bury him." That man was bilious.
A few doses of H. q. 2 would have
cured him, and caused him to forget
that there were such things as cohiDs.

Trinity Methodist Church was yesterday
morning filed to its utmost capacity, there
being q union service, occasioned Dy the
great calamity which has befallen the coun-
try in the death Of President James A. Gar
field. The congregations Of all the denomi-
nations in the city were.represented, with
the exception Of the Episcopal and Cstho-
lie, services being held in those churches.
The excellent choir, under the leadership
of Nr. c. P. Miller, selected as voluntary,
Though He Stay Me-" by Bliss, and rem
manner, the soprano solo of Mrs. Lyon be-
ing particularly fine. All the different parts
were well sustained, and the choir, as a
whole, contributed greatly to the grandeur
and solemnity Of the occasion.
The order of service was as follows:
Voluntarily choir of Trinity Church.
Hymn-"Our God cur Help in Ages Past.
Prayer-By Rev. G.. G.. n MacDonell.
Hymn-"ROck of Ages Cleft for Ne"
The sermon was preached by Rev. r. P.
Kerr, of the Independent Presbyterian
Church, who selected as his text the fifth
chapter OF Genesis, twenty fourth verse
"And he was not, for God took him"-and
| from Il delivered q most beautiful and elo-
quent discourse, in which touching refer
ence was made TO the great puOnc mlsIOr-
tune, which was portrayed as the work OF
Providence for some wise purpose, that
we could not now understand.
After the sermon, the hymn, "How Blest
the Righteous when he Dies" was sung.
PRAYER was offered by Rev. Mr.. Thompson,
OF New Houston Street Church, and dox-
ology-"Prsise God, from whom all Bless
ings how''-was sung, the entire congrega-
ton joining in. The benediction was pro-
nOunced by Rev. Mr.. Branch, pastor, and
the congregation dismissed.
| At st. Johns Church the services were
also very impressive, aud the sacred edifice
was filed. The music was Of the highest
order and rendered in excellent style. Rev.
| Thomas Boone, rector Of Christ Church,
delivered an address appropriate to the
solemn occasion, which was replete with
beautiful thoughts.
At the Cathedral, at o'clock mass, high
requiem for the dead was sung.

DEPRAVITY OF BOYS.
who is RespOnsIblef-A Word to Pa.
rents and COnseTvatOrs of Law and
order.

Editor Morning NesUS Permit me, through
your valuable and widely read columns, to
call attention to an evil, or nuisance, that
demands redress.
Upon any night in the week, Sunday
nights not excepted, may be noticed groups
of loafing boys between the ages OF seven
and seventeen, congregated at street cor
ners, vacant lots, and out of the way and in
the way places, INDUCING in catalogue Of
vices, embracing smoking and chewing to-
bacco, cursing, swearing, boisterous and
obscene language, ETC., to the annoyance
and disedincstioD, II not gross otfense, and
insults of passer by, and residents OF the
neighboThood.
These boys, upon inquiry, will be found
to be children of Christian parents living In
the vicinity, who go, or ought to go, on
SUNDAYS and other times to Christian
churches, where they are taught, or should
be taught, the sacred duty of "bringing up
their children in the way they should go,
that when they grow old they shall not de-
part from IT," and where they constantly
Saviour, "Suffer little children to come unto
me, aud forbid them not, for of such Is the
kingdom of heaven"
1t is not so much my object to expose the
evil as to demand remedy. Who shall
apply the remedy First and properly the
parents, who are prominently the keepers
and guardians of their children, and who
will be held responsible before God and
man for their conduct In time and eternity.
These parents should at once recall their
children from the streets after dark, and
provide them with amusements of an in
structiye and refining character, that would
attach them to home. Among such amuse-
ments, music-heavenly music, cannot be too
strongly urged, for 'of all the golden gifts
that heaven hath left as portions OF its light
upon earth, none hath such influence as
music has" "For is there soul that music
cannot melt"
But as there is little probability that these
parents will do better for their children in
the future than in the past, who will do it?
| answer the city or State. When parents
fail, or are unable to take proper care of
their children, 1t becomes the duty of the
city or State to take their place. Hence, we
appeal to the proper city authorities to
issue a standing order to the police to break
up and disperse these vicious rookeries Of
bows after dark, and IL they find any
difficulty In doing so, arrest some of them,
and take them to the barracks to make
examples Of them, which will have whole
some effect upon the balance. Compel
them to stop at home ct night and become
good boys, and, In time, good citizens of
the republic. A blessing which L fer
vently wish them. REFoRMHR.
