A Visit to the University of
Virginia.

MeSSrS. Et1itorS,-Many years have
passed since l last saw the University,
and felt something Of the spirit of classic
and cultured serenity which dwells with
in its precincts. Though now seen under
the garb Of wintry surroundings, I had
no difficulty in recognising the improve
ment and advance everywhere apparent.
The Public Hall, Laboratory build
ings, and Brooks Museum, have been
added. The hall is very substantial
and graceful specimen of architecture,
in perfect keeping with the adjacent
edifices and with the whole scheme of
the University grounds. Yet one, who
knew whereof he spake, said, in my pre-
sence, that Mr.. Jeferson's faithfulness
and skill in the original buildings had
been fully vindicated by the fact that
they were better and stronger now than
the new erections. and that the very NOR
tar OF the older houses was so firm and
hard that it was difficult to drive nail
into It'll
During the afternoon we visited the

Mallet remarked that from careful esti-
mate it had been ascertained that the
sulphuric acid manufactured in a single
year would fill lake, fifteen feet deep,
and one-third of mile in length and
width
This able Professor is very pleasant in
conversation, and lets fall, from time to
time, piquant and spicy remarks which
enliven grave discussion. The specimens
OF earthen and glass ware, and Of organic
and inorganic substances, in the labora-
tory, have, under his care, seconded by
that of his hard-working assistant, be-
come very numerous and instructive. A
single column of salt from the mines of
Poland, clear almost to transparency and
weighing perhaps quarter of ton, is
exhibited. DR.. Mallet sometimes tells
his visitors that this is the identical grain
of salt which, if dropped on a bird . tall
will ensure his capture, according to a
very ancient belief.
Altogether this visit to the University
of Virginia, has confirmed all previous
impressions in its favor; and produced
the conviction that all the influences at
work there whether educational, philo-
sophical, scientific, or religious, are sound
and safe tor our young men.

Posture in PRAYER.

MeSsrS. Editors, Your correspondent,
" F. j., in his discussion of I" the Revised
Directory for Worship" objects to the
provisions of Chapter 1, because it sug-
gests one more topic" for the long
prayer than the old Directory did
After long observation of the wishes of
the people, he suggests that it would be
manifestly proper to reduce the number
OF topics. In the same article he cites as
fault in the new Directory the omission
OF anything on posture IN prayer. He
states however that "of later years 5ea,a-
ing seems to have become almost univer-
sal, and suggests that some direction"
ought to be given in favor of the old fash
Toned posture of standing in public prayer.
If the manifest wishes of the Presbyte-
rians of America may be cited as rea-
son against the suggestion of additional
topics for the long prayer, may not the
almost universal" custom of leaning in
prayer be construed as indicating an al
most universal opposition, on the part of
the people, to the old fashioned posture"
of standing? And may not this opposi-
ton to this old fashioned posture" be
cited as good reason for the omission,
IN the new Directory" of any instruc-
tions or directions on this subject?
1t is difficult Gf not impossible) to en-
force any human law which is not sane
toned by public opinion. If, as "F. j."
lntimates, public opinion in the churches
does not favor any law about posture in
prayer, and is especially unfavorable to
standing" why make law which will
not be observed and which will probably
become "dead letter.? x

The Pope and the Irish Question.
BALTIMORE. MD. Feb d

DALIlMORE, MD, + ED. 4th.
MeSSrs. EdStorS,-In the letter from
Ireland, in your last issue, Hibernicus"
expresses some surprise at the action of
the Pope with regard to the Land League
agitation in that country. You will
please allow me to say that, in my opin-
ion, the course of the Papal See in this
matter is entirely consistent. Cardinal
Manning and his adherents are English
men, and have English views of British
politics. AS a political factor this body
OF English Romanists is more potent
than the whole population of the Romish
portion OF Ireland. In short the Pope
has wisely and deliberately taken the
measure respectively of the English and
the Irish Romanists, and finds that at this
Juncture one Englishman is worth a hun
dred lrlshmen. He must deal carefully
with the great Cardinal. Romanism and
patriotism must not be arrayed against
each other in England. The time has
not come for that So the Pope con-
demns the Land League, and denounces
the Fenians, believing that the English
Government will do justice" How pru-
dent is all this. England is strong Ire
land is weak. Yet as Ireland furnishes
priests for the Church in America it
ought not to be despised by the successor
OF Peter, so [ imagine that while Leo
conclliates the proud Cardinal and his
party in England by his public letters,
he may instruct the priests to say in the
confessional to the Irish that his Holiness
is not really very mad with them. That
is, If the teachings Of st. Liguori admit of
such double dealing.
Hoping that you may both be long
spared to battle in the cause of truth.
l remain, very truly yours

The evangelical churches of Boston
are holding their own, if we may trust what seem
to be reliable data. An article in the Congre
gatonalist shows that the number of such church
members in what is now called Old Boston is
not less now, as compared with the whole pop
ulation than thirty years ago, while within the
present cry limits there has been a positive in
crease. AT the same time, 35 per cent of the
population within the old city limits, and 81 per
cent within the present city limits, are foreign
born.

Launcl, of a Bath House.

A Partial Ea1fure and FInal success-
 Ready6or Use in . Day or Two.
 The launch of the floating bath at West bridge on Saturday was only partially success full. Shortly before o'clock in the after noon, it being nearly high water, the builder, MT. W. A Lincoln, gave orders to start the bath on it's way to the river. It had been built on 'tways," and rollers were placed un- derneath to facilitate the movement of the lumbersome tank. When the order was giv- en and the supports were removed it moved 8 few feet and then suddenly came to stop, having encountered sand bar near the bank of the river. Nothing more to float the tank could be accomplished at that tide. The builder at once secured number of empty kerosene oil barrels, and when it was low water he corked them tightly and then lashed them to the lower timbers for the purpose of lifting the ponderous crib from the mud when the tide should again rise. This plan was success, and yesterday after noon at about o'clock the tank was success fully launched into the stream and secured to the piles in the vicinity. To-day the tank will be anchored to the spot where it is per- manently to remain. The builder has little more work to do to complete his contract, but it is thought that it will be finished and ready for use on Tuesday or Wednesday of this week. The new bath is built on original plans furnished by Assistant City Engineer Hill, and the work of the building has been superintended by him. Thus far it appears to be success, and will no doubt answer al the ;requirements sof 8 bathing tank which can be used at all times of tide.

West Ha1en Illumination.

Getting Ready for q Brilliant Affair
 Tuesday Night at the shore.
 A great time is expected at the West Ha- ven shore tomorrow (Tuesday) evening, when the grand illumination by the cottages, at the hotels and restaurants and along shore generally takes place. Everybody seems to be interested in making it success. Ar engagements for securing the West Haven brass band at last accounts were in progress. There was talk Saturday of enlisting the youth and small boys as lantern brigade to march Indian file and again by platoons car rying lanterns to help on the interest of the affair. The boys and girls at the shore are a quite numerous part of the shore popula- tion, and no doubt the youngsters will enter with all zest into the affair. Many parents take their children to the shore each summer, as they find it benefits them great ly, and they say they avoid doctors bills by so doing, and this they say with all due respect to the disciples of Esculapius, and not few fathers and mothers go to the shore mainly to gratify the young folks and make them healthier. If the West Haven shore corps of boys all turn out they will make quite show, provided there are lan- terms enough to go round. If the thirst of Illuminating is as fully contagious as it ap- pears it will be. there will be lights out far along on the coast and perhaps a rocket or two will indicate not only that 'tthe flag is still there" which means at the Pagoda, but that Bryan, the renowned merchant tailor, is down there watching what ''the wild waves are saying" There are several more cotta- ges to Illuminate this year, and from reports all that is wanted to make the affair success is the right weather. The children want that Vennor should be telegraphed.

 On Saturday morning shortly after z o'clock, Robert Small. a joiner at work on the new brick block near the corner of Elm and State streets, and employed by Andrew 0. Smith, met with very serious accident. He was at work on the second floor of the building putting down flooring. A small ap- erture had been left near where he was at work, which was partly covered with felt pa-. per used to deaden the floor. Through some mistake he stepped backward on to this felt and fell distance of twelve feet to the floor below. He fell on his back across some ioists used to support the floor, resulting in the fracture of his spinal column. His fell low workmen went to his assistance and af- ter removing him to another part of the build ing Doctors O. A. and 0. F. Linds1ey and pr. Bellosa were called. On their advice, Smart was removed to the hospital, when Dr. Will liam Russell, house surgeon, and Dr. Thomas H. Russell. one of the attending surgeons, cared for the unfortunate man. Smart will never again be able to use his lower limbs, although he may live for years. Last even ing he was as comfortable as could be ex- pected under the circumstances. He is an unmarried man about g years of age, and came from Scotland about one year ago. The only relative he has in this city is an Wunt, Mrs Christine Hall, who resides at No
 204 Meadow street.

Cure for the Bite of a Copperhead.

A few days ago Orrin Vergason's horse was pasturing in a scrubby lot in the town of Bozrsh. A red snake in tussock struck it's fangs into the animals nose, making deep incision. The only eficacious remedy com monly employed for the bite of red snake is great draughts of whiskey. Mir. Vergason knew a better and cheaper remedy. The horse was in great pain, and within few minutes after the bite had been given it's neck had swollen to an enormous size. It's nose was as large as a peck basket. The owner first gave an infusion of white ash bark, pouring it down by the quart. Next he gave horehound tea and ap- piled it externally to the head and lips. The horse began to recover, the swelling gradu- ally went down, and the animal is now well. Great efficacy is popularly ascribed to tn @ juice of white ash in treating snake bites, and it is the superstitious belief in some parts of Connecticut that snakes will never cross 8 gath that is sprinkled with the leaves of this tree. Three red snakes have been killed near where MT. Vergason's horse was bitten within few weeks.
