We have carried the enemies works,

After Il long and heated debate, the Sem
ate to-day passed the bill rcqiring the
school tax to be paid in money. That
the House will adopt it there is not n
particle of doubt. The fear was as to
the Senate, and This may be regarded as
u test vote. Major John W, Daniel
spoke yesterday, and DR.. Sullins, who Is
here, and had the opportunity ofhear-
inc lis closing remarks, lie
opposed with all his power the passage
of the bill, which he declared to be the
vanguard Of reputation, lie said he
would rather see II bonfire made Of Cv-
cry free school in the State, and n bon
fire then made Of his own home, than
that this bill and those that were to follow
it should pass. lie declared that the
friends of read iustmcnt had chosen this
bill to lead the way with, 50 as TO have
the women and children in front, in or
der to keep It's opponents from iirlng on
it. To-day he moved 10 amend it so rs
to make the collecting officers receive
coupons in payment Of the school tax. as
well MS money. Those who contcnded
that the Bristol NEWS, last fall, improp-
erly classcd him with the fundcrs,
should have heard this speech. Yet he
declared that he voted against the Fund
ing bill in 1871, because that Legislature
was simply sent to put the State in nc-
cord with the new constitution and not
to FUND the debt, and, moreover, he saw
with his own eyes that powerful lobby
was pressing ilS passage, and the sight
of this offended him.

Waiting.

To many persons Of active temper.
ament, there is perhaps no task more
diSagreeaLle than waiting. Theyare
willing to work, are well pleased with
cmployments that call forth all their
energies, provided they can see the
Immediate results Of their labor: but
to wait from sced.time to harvest is 4
severe tax upon their patience.
Learn to Labor and to wait"
is advice not easily followed; the Ia.
Dor is easy enough, but the waiting
is exceedingly distasteful.
As farmers, they are energetic and
impetuOus, but impatient of the slow
processes of nature; and if somewhat
more wise than the little girl who
planted bean under the window
and then faithfully dug it up every
day to see if had sprouted, yet the
difference between their wisdom and
hers is rather in degree than in kind.
AS mechanics, they are hard,work-
ing men, generally poor, always COM
planning Of hard times, always living
fully up to their income, whatever it
may be, and always ready to change
their place Of residence on the slight
est prcteXt. AS merchants, they are
not content with moderate gains, but
are always rushing into speculations,
always having some brilliant scheme
ON hand, which they follow with az
much zest as u child blows soap.bub-
bic, and usually with about the same
result. Make or break" is their
motto, and in the majority Of cases
1t is easy to see which it will be. As
clergymen, they toll earnestly and
zcaIouSly that the gamers Of the Lord
may be filled; but if this is not done
Immediately, they are ready to cry
out against the whole human race
To labor is easy; to wait is of all
things most difficult.
