THE WAYS OF TEXANS.

The ways Of our Texan Southern
brethren are a little peculiar. For in
stance, in their dealings with horse
thieves they have a summary method.
This method is not according to statute.
but is very effectual. All good codes of
Justice are liable to abuse, however, as is
proved by an incident which lately took
place among the Texans. At Decatur,
in that State, the pros and cons about
the erection of a new Courthouse had
been matters OF warm discussion, and
the advocates OF q new building, with
true Texan p~romptness, have burned
down the old edifice. 1t is true that the
books, papers, criminal docket and about
81, 900 in cash have become einders in
the process-but what of that? Decatur
must now have a new Courthouse, and
that is n point gained. The end pro-
posed was accomplished as thoroughly as
the destruction Of bed bugs by an Irish.

rid Of the pest. But if Texas is happy

The boiler Of the Mission Soap and Can
die Works, on Sixteenth, between Folsom
and Harrison streets, blew up about A
o'clock this morning. The night watch
man and engineer were the only persons
on the premises at the time, and escaped
unhurt. The building was demolished,
and . squatter's shanty and q Chinese
wash-house adjoining were eighty dam
aged. The building, valued at So, 900. is a
total loss. The machinery was valued at
$4,000, and is more or less damaged.
LATER-The loss by the explosion at the
candle factory this morning is estimated
at about $40, 900. The boiler was a high
pressure one, Is feet long and two feet in
diameter. A piece weighing q ton was
thrown over a two-story building, landing
in a gravel pit 1000 yards distant; other
pieces of great weight were blown through
the walls of a warehouse, shattering the
adjoining buildings, and bricks, timber,
grease and candles distributed over the
entire neighborhood. That no lives were
lost is almost Q miracle.

OPINIONS OF THE CLERGY.

If it is true that the Catholic ecclesias-
tics in France are hostile to the Republic
and are o~utspoken in the expression of
their sentiments, their imprudence GER
tainly can not be denied; but why a
priest should not have the same right to
have political opinions Of his W as any
other man, and to express them in a
proper manner, does not appear, and upon
the whole it would be no more than natural
if the French clergy did distrust the Re-
public. They have had small reason to
regard it with confidence. The fact is,
the men at the head of the French Gov
eminent can not appreciate the funda-
mental element of Republicanism, which
is that lawful liberty of conscience and
of action should be accorded to all. Men
like Gambetta and Paul Bert are as ty-
r~annically oppressive in their way as a
Louis or q Napoleon.

ruE TRADE WITH BRAZIL.

The head Of the American Cabinet
says in a public letter to the New YORK
Tariff Convention that we are Obliged to
export $40, 600, 900 annually to Brazil 20
nav the balance against us in trade with
that country. This gold is reshipped
thence to England because the balance OF
trade is in favor Of Great Britain as
against Brazil. In fact we are without
direct communication with Brazil, and
the United States Ambassador to that
Government is obliged to reach Rio
Janiero by the way of England in English
steamships. New York has made des-
perate efforts to establish a permanent
line of steamers between that point and
Brazil, but has been defeated by the sys-
tsmatic efforts of powerful British bank
ers and business operators generally to
monopolize the Brazilian trade. The
maintenance Of British trade and finance
on a sound basis has depended upon
their success in the competition for this
monopoly. This is all an old story.
Yet the real merits of the situation do
not seem to be understood. Govern.
ment subsidy will not remove the disad-
vantage that we labor under. The i'm
port Of Brazilian products direct from
the Brazilian ports is immense in volume
and value. The only remedy for Ameri-
can bankers and merchants is to control
this trade. This they cannot do. The
reason therefor is not the number and
activity of British ships which freeze us
.out of the carrying trade, but because
British manufacturers overwhelmingly
supply the South American markets.
Hence, until we can compete with the
English in cheapness of manufacture,
the question Of competition of American
with British vessels in the matter OF
freight transportation must remain Sec
ondary and ~unimportant.

Although it is not probable that the
Spanish Government will be able to OBJ.
tain the, assent Of the Pope to the au-
thorization Of civil marriage in Spain.
there can be very little doubt that Spain
will follow the example Of France in that
respect. and require the civil marriage As
indispensable, either with or without the
religious ceremony. The contest on that
point is a very old one in Catholic ooun-
tries of Europe, and was one Of the very
first points insisted upon by the Austrian
Government after that monarchy was
liberalized.
