We kA wv you Leader, tried and true
We knew you years ago
When we were soldiers Of the blue
And treason was the foe;
We stayed rebellion's poisonous breath
And rallied side by side,
And, braving every form of death,
We fought and bled and died.
We had no doubts when war was rife
We made no question then
We battled for nations life,
And we were Logan menl
And meath the burning southern sun,
Where e'er your standard waved,
We found a glorious victory won
Our soIdier honor saved
We live on history's page, and yet
They ask us at this time
To furl our banners and forget
Those days and deeds sublimel
Nayl sound the trumpct-beat the drum,
And call the roll again
A million soldier boys will come
A million Logan men!

| fine the few remarks which I will make in
the following to the colored race only, as /
wish to oppose the contemporaries in their
assertion that education or book learnino
does not diminish crime. The affirmation
say,is barren ofall verify, and void of proof.
The contemporaries, with all the influence
and eloquence of the Englih language can
not prove that erudition is not productive
OF lessening crime and lawlessness On the
contrary, it is the very incpience of that
grand and social quality. and the support
ers of that indelible character, which dis.
dains criminality.
am friend to education, and indorse
eveay word in its favor; but l detest with
heated adherence any expression or ten
dendcy to disencourage it's wide diffusion
throughout our land. Education is the
grand pedestal on which depends the glory,
honor, and independence of nation. There
can be no sobriety, integrity, nor peace
where ignorance reigns There can be but
little law and order where illitelacy dwells.
Without education, what is there? Moth

ltmay please you to know something about
the school system ofTexas. The prospect for
the establishment of strong and permanent
school system is good. The school funds
rush into the treasury as if by magic and
there is no possibility of teaching it all out
in no one scholastic year under the present
teachers salary, $35, $50, and SIS, per month
respectively.
There is reason to believe that Texas will.
1T no distant period offer more and better
facilities than any other state in the great
union for carrying on schools; ten years will
change her from an uninhabited forest and
region to thckly settled country, occupied

Buriel Beyond the Hope Of Future Resurrection
Mr. EDITOR:--As you are a man of curl
osity as well as chronicler of daily events
trust you will grant me little more space
than is usually allotted to marriage notices,
that may give something more than pass
ing remark ofthis extraordinary, yet iniqui-
tous union.
You will observe that Miss Liberalism,
contrary to the usual custom, was married to
Mr.. Republican, the reason is obvious. Miss
Liberalism is an cast-off harlot of one De.
mocracy. After having for number of
years sustained with the said Democracy
the most dishonorable relations, anu been
overtaken in several drunken debaucheries,
she lost favor with Mr.. Democracy, himself
a very lecherous man. In this plight she
disguised herself as Miss Liberalism, and in
this disguise made overturcs to Mr.. Repub-
lican, though not without his knowledge of
her disgraceful antecedents. The courtship
"
temperance campaign Miss Liberalism show
cd a very decided prediction for strong
drink. This quality commended her to the
favor of Mr.. Republican, and hence he re-
ceived her advances towards him with the
greatest of selfcomplacency. As said, the
marriage occurred at the above time and
place, Miss Liberalism claiming the right to
stand at the head of the family.
Now, Mr.. Editor, as no made-up match is
likely to stand, I predict that this union will
be most inglorious failure. The people in
whose interest it is pretended to have been
made, will not indorse it. The men who
were most conspicuous in bringing 1t about
are not those noted for their regard for the |
public veal; but men whose highest con-
ception of craftsmanship is the amount of |
personal gain to be gotten and the oppor-
tunity offered for the furtherance of their
own selfish and ambitious schemes. And

foisted upon the people was not such as to

What the Bishop refers to reads
thus in our issue of 9th December
last year;
"We learn that a sun of $1,000, raised
by subscription in this Island for the
sufferers from the hurricane in Dominica
has been forwarded to the Roman Catholic
Bishop of Roseau. AS the list of subscrip-
tions was presented, at least in Christian
sted, also to ProteStantS, who subscribed
toit, it Is to be hoped that the Protestant
part of the Dominican population will not
be forgotten in the distribution. We have
heard that the Bishop when holding con-
frmationS here made collections of about
an equal amount for general purposes,
which seems to prove that there is still
money among the inhabitants Of st. Croix".
1t would seem that the Bishop feels
offended by the above, but we fail to see
why. We mainly meant to imply that
money was not so scarce in st. Crolx.
Why the Bishop has underlined the words
"whpn holding combinations" and "pur-
poses7 in his letter we know not. We
mentioned the combinations simply to
Indicate the time referred to-. The Bishop
denies having made collections: 81 made
no collections. We do not see there IS any
reason for ire against us for having said SO,
it implies nothing improper. 1t was
generally mentioned, but without any
d~erogatOry comment whatever, that the
Bishop had received good sums OF money
while here during the combinations. we
therefore consider the phrase false" rather
malplac6.

New York, Jan. 1b.-A despatch
from London states that the Com
missloners appointed to inquire into
the financial condition, taxation, and
public expenditure in Jamaica, have
submitted their report in which they
recommend the reduction OF the
establishments by twentyseven thous-
and pounds, the erection of a new
Central Government building, the
reduction of the -four and tea duties
TO one half, and of the al vaIorem
rates to ten per cent. They recom
mend the repeal Of the export duties
and tax on stock, and the incre ase
of the Land tax. 1t is also recon-
mended that the encountered estates
court be abolished and that encoura-
cement be given for larger lmmlgra-

statement, that "tchcR holding Contirma-

for general patpoSes.' On what ground
you have made such a statement, know
not.
But Sir, it is false, I made no collec-

to recall same, for there could be no
foundation for entering this in your Paper.
