The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1881-06-11

The Western Texas Chronicle
contains the following; Idleness is
one Of the great curses of this
country. 1t is humiliating to SEQ
the stout, healthy men who make
a business Of loaflng, not at all
ashamed to eat the bread made by
the exertion of others, and allow
ing themselves to be clothed by the
worn fingers of some overworked
mother, sister or wife. The times
are hard, but they are made harder
than they naturally are by this
dead weight Of idleness, which
weighs upon the energies of the
industrious people, and places them
atdisadyantages in he fight against
unfortunate circumstances. On this
subject an exchange says;
"lf there is anything we dislike
to see, it is q batch of able bodied
men sitting around q store door
whiting, playing checkers, pitch
ing rings, talking politics, shooting
marbles, and. engaged III every
known occupation except making
an honest livelihood, when in all
probability the wife, or mother, or
sister is at home t0iling to earn the
very bread they eat. Such men
are generally loudest in their de-
nunciations Of hard times, but what
40 they do to better the condition
OF the countryg Iii penning the
above we intend nothing personal
to any one individual, but say to
the reader, IF the shoe fits you,'
resolve, like d man, to 0utgr0W it
by seeking an honest living at
whatever you can find to ,lo.n

THE NEW TEsTAMENT.
Issue of Four Hundred Thou
sand Copies in New Work.

|
Especial TO the Cincinnati Times-Starl
NEW YORK, May 20.--The first
delivery of the new revised edition
of the New Testament was deliv.
cred at 4 o'clock this morning by
the American agents of the English
publishers; four hundred thousand
copies have been stored here for
weeks with the agents, but in ac-
cordance with the plan of the pub
fishers, they were not to be given
to the public until May Goth, the
day fixed for the simultaneous aD-
pearance on both sides OF the At
lantic. The book is issued from The
University press of Oxford, Eng
land, and Bleecker Street House is
the sole agent in this city. Since
the arrival of the invoice it has
been watched with Jealous care,
and no hand has beea allowed to
touch the books, and no curious
eye to read the pages. The reason
for this extraordinary care isAthat
there being no international copy
right law, the only way in which
the English publishers can reap the
first harvest is to be first in the
field.
Already score of American
publishers have announced edi-
tions, and many schemes have been
tried to surreptitiously obtain d
copy OF the work. 1t is said that
an enterprising printer put com
positors to work this morning, set
ting up type for fresh editions.
There will be no copies sold at re-
tail at the agents, but arrange.
ments with retailers have been
made, who received quantity this
morning. 1t will unquestionably
have q greater immediate sale than
any book ever issued, and almost
every bookseller has already nm
mense orders for it. The Oxf0rd
editions are in four different kinds
Of type, and in twenty-five styles
Of binding. The prices range from
10 cents to SIG, A few copies have
for some time been in the hands of
The American Mission Committee,
but have been as carefully guarded
Is those in the agents hands The
committees room in the Bible House
was locked, and q reporter had to
Knock for admittance. The score

% show a copy of the book until
o-day.
One of the committee entered to
ret the only copy, and 1t was taken
rom its place with much care, and
he gentleman departed with it.
)r. u. w, Gilman, Secretary of
he Bible Society, said that the
'oeiety had not taken steps to print
II edition of the revised Testament.
t is problematic as to how it will

and whether the new
ersion will be adopted by the
hurches as a substitute for the old.
here was great demand for the
ews work, one house in this
Ity taking 10000 copies Outside
New York, the heaviest orders
Dme from Chicago. Copies were

Long before midnight express

ents are stored, and soon the

will draw forty passengers; or, In
other words, 8.10 of q pound Of coal,
cost $40 Of one cent, represents the
cost of fuel In drawing one passen-
ger.
While the underground railroad
10 the peculiar feature of London,
and the elevated railroad is In q
like manner the feature of New
York, San Francisco takes special
pride In her cable roads, in which
there has already been invested q
capital of one and one.fourth
millions of dollars.
The enterprising city of Chicago,
that never does things by halves,
Is building q series of cable roads
which will cost over two millions
of dollars.
Thus 1t will appear that while
the design of the inventor was
more particularly to overcome the
difficulties of steep grades, 1t will
prove there, as it has here, admir-
ably adapted to level streets, and
the result will probably be that the
principal cities of the Union will
be compelled to adopt the system
on account of it's economy, noise-
lessness, rapidity and general COM
fort.

the SUN FOR 1881.

Everybody reads THE SUN. In tho
editions Of this newspaper throughout the
year to come everybody viii find:
l. All the worlds news, so presented
that the reader will get the greatest
amount of Information with the least Uu-
profitable expenditure Of time and eye
sight. THE SUN long ago discovered the
golden mean between redundant fullness
and unsatisfactory brevity.
II. Much Of that sort Of news which de-
pends less upon its recognized importance
than upon its interest to mankind. From
morning to morning THE Sun prints q
continued story of the lives Of real men
and women, and Of their deeds, plans,
owes, hates, and troubles. This story is
more varied and more interesting than
any romance that was ever devised.
Ill. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy and deco
run in Hnsaa the treatment OF HsnseSt
habit is to speak out fearlessly about men
and things.
V. Equal candor in dealing with each
political party, and equal readiness to
commend what is praiseworthy or to 70
buke what is blamable in Democrat or
Republican.
VI. Absolute independence Of partisan
organizations, but unswerving fidelity to
True Democrauc principles. The BUN
believes that the Government which the
Constitution gives us 10 good one to
keep. Its notion Of duty is to resist to its
utmost power the efforts of men in the Re-
publican party to set up another form Of
government in place of that which exists.
The year 1881 and the years Immediately
following will probably decide this su-
premely important contest. TIE SUN
believes that the victory will be with the
people against the Rings for monopoly,
the Rings for plunder and the Rings for
imperial power.
