mBMIlli UEORUIAi
SUNDAY MAY HI, 1874.
Lieut.—Vie e»n got nothing reliable u
to tbo present condition, or tb* origin
of “joarnalism in Ohio..” If is conceded.
however, that the Chioaaa printed by
A von of the House of itepresenta- movable type long before the art was
Uvea on Monday does not look oitiob like known in Europe. There are now in ex-
making an effort to return to specie pay- imperial bulletin* containing the
manta aoon. Mr. Beck offered a bill an- j deciaiona and ordara of tha court, which
wara printed on ailk about the middle of
the 8th oantury and diatributed through
tha empire for tha information of the
people.
Amateur.—You are right; the linea
are used by Kiohtnond, but they do not
appear, aa we onoe thought ourselves, in
the original of ltichard III. They are
found in Henry VI., and read,
“What stronger breast plate than a heart un
tainted,
Thrice Is he armed who hath his quarrel just,
And he but naked, though locked up In t-Leel,
Whose conscience with injustice Is corrupted.”
W. writes in answer to our inquiry aa
to the author of
“No pent dp Utica contracts our powers,
But the whole bouudless continent is ours.”
It waa written by Johnathan M. Jewell
at* an epilogue to Addison's Cato on
the occasion of ita being first played at
Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
The same correspondent writes:
‘Thomas Tusser in the sixteenth century
wrote a couplet which has been quoted
incorrectly more frequently, perhaps,
than any other written. It reads :
“> xcept wind stands, as never it stood,
It is an ill wind turns none to go >d.”
Our correspondent is right; bnt the
adugo “It is an ill wind that blowa no one
good," we think to bo older than Tusser,
as it appears iu the adages of the Dutoh,
Hootch, French and Germans.
Autocrat.—Oliver Wendell Holmes is a
physician, aud tbo author of several well
known medical works. He was born Au
gust 21), 1809.
Jlal.—“Hunts Fo" means “holy faith."
The town of Hanta Fe, New Mexico, was
fouuded as a Jesuit mission many years
before English colonies were established
on the Atlantic coast. A map of Mexico
is a oailendar of the saints, for tho mis
sionaries stamped the names of their
saints and the attributes of their church
oq every moiliitein valley and stream of
the new world which they bad the power
to name.
Dan.—If you can’t succeed here, whero
labor and energy are needed, we fear tho
chances of success in tho West would not
be good.
F. M. D." writes : If you will please
answer the following questions for me, I
shall be greatly obliged. Who is the au
thor of “Siutram" ? and what is its gen
eral character t In the course of my
readings this week I’ve stumbled on sev
eral references to this work. In one work
the following quotation occurs :
“Death comes to Hut thee free—
0 moot him
tboriaiBg the payment of one-third of the
onetome dotiee in legal tender, inetead of

The AtlenU Herald expleine that in the
following sentence, which appeared in
the Commonwealth'e article on the Civil
Bights bill on Thursday, the “intelligent
oompoeltor" substituted the profane word,
for the word quondam in the manuscript:
Dnsky d.meele will have to droop their
blabber lips in pensive neglect while the
fastidious Haoibo is casting shsep's eyes
upon the snowy charms of a God damn
school marm.
A tun named Pecker, who lately ar
rived at the Los Pinos Indian Agency in
Colorado, made a horrible report. He
stated be and five other men started for
that point acrosa the Dte reservation, and
that, on aooount of hunger, one after an
other of these five persons had been killed
by the remainder, and that he himself
bed killed the last remaining man only
about twenty miles from the agency. He
excepted only the ftrst two viotims, of
whom he spoke as beviog died from star
vation, having first eaten the dead bodies
before commencing to kill one another.
Thebe was a pitched battle on Satur
day the 28d inst., in Plaquemine, La.,
betwoen two wings of the Uadioo) party—
the negroes on It e ouo side,end the carpet
baggers end some mulettoes on the other.
It was the third row that bad oocurred
between them. One negro was killed
and another mortally wonnded, and sev
eral on both sides wora severely bnt not
fatally wonnded. The negroes finally
routed their opponents, who scattered in
every direotion. But a renewal of the
fight is threatened.
A committer of the Memphis Cotton
Exchange reported on Thursday that they
were iu receipt of 4!) letters represent
ing 94 counties in Tennessee, Arkansas,
Mississippi, Alabama and two in Missouri,
which aggregate as follows : Deficiency
in acreago of cotton planted, aa compared
with 1878, eight and one-tenth per cent.,
as with 1872, three and ono-lenth per
cent; estimated yet to be planted after
20th lost., one and seven-tenths. The
season’s planting labor force has increased
numerically sevon-tenths the past year,
and during the past two years ono and
aeven-teutks. In comparison the past two
years’ labor shows improvement iu indus
try one per cent., but nothing in thrift!
ness.
We find that tho refusal of the House
of Representatives to tako up the Ben
ate’s Finance bill, on Monday, is by a
number of Washington reporters regard
#d as a defeat of any measure of the kind
at this session of Oougrrss. The bill
would not, probably, bavo obtained a ma
jority vote if it had been taken up, be
oauao ranny so-called inflationists were
not aatiNfied with it, and it did not go far
enough to be Acceptable to the other aide.
From present appearances the whole mat
ter must go before the people; and it is
likely, we think, that the Radioala, know-
ing that this question will be tbo promi
nent one at tho North aud West, will
want tho Oivil Rights question to oreato
a diversion in tho South, whereby they
may avoid a square decision of the peoplo
throughout the country upon the Fiuan-
oial issue.
Tub testimony, on behalf of the Gov
ernment, in the onse of the Graut parish
prisoners at New Orleans, closed on
Tuesday. About seventy witnesses—or
twice as many as at the former trial—
were examined for the proseoution, but
many of them said they know little or no
thing about tho case. The examination
of witnesses for the defense commenced
on Thursday, aud on that day some pret
ty strong and direct testimony, showing
that the negroes and thoir white leaders
were tho aggressors, was given in. The
Picayune of Friday says that the trial will
end iu either an acquittal or another mis
trial. We~bope that it is cor root in this
opinion, but buve our fears. There is
need for Radical political oapital in Lou
isiana just now.
HOW TO AVOID MIXED SCHOOLS.
There are two classes of souuuls iu
Kentuoky—one for the whites, supported
by taxation of the whites; and one for
the blacks, supported by taxation of tho
blacks. Neither olass of these sohools is,
therefore, supported by “ general” taxa
tion. The Civil Rights bill now before
Congress provides that all schools “sup
ported iu whole or in part by general tax
ation” shall bo open to both races. The
Kentucky system is suggestive of a mode
by which to defeat the Civil Rights bill,
in respect to mixed sohools, should it be
come a law. Let tho poll taxes collected
in Georgia from the whites be applied to
tbo support of exclusive white sohools,
and the poll taxes of the negroes be ap
plied exclusively to the support of negro
sohools. This is roally the fairest way of
apportioning the sohool taxes between the
two zaces, if only strict justice and equal
ity were consulted. But the whites
have beeu more maguanimous iu Geor
gia, as well as Alabina. They pay three-
fourths of the poll taxes, mod nearly half
the money is appropriated to tho educa
tion of the negroes. Now, however,if the
arbitrary laws of Cougress disturb this
maguauimous end*generofis arrangement,
the whites of these States have only to
fall back upon a plan striotly just to both
raoes, and the Congressional comming
ling scheme will be defeated. Let there
be no “general taxation” for the support
of any public schools, but partial taxation
for the aupport of two olasses of schools,
saoh raoe receiving back exactly what it

DEV. LOYICK PIERCE.
Just before the adjournment of the
General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, at Louisville, the fol
lowing farewell letter from the venerable
Dr. L. Pierce was read—the members
stauding during its reading, and after
wards uniting in a fervent prayer, led by
the senior Bishop, for our venerable and
beloved “servant of God
Louisville, May 2(J.
To the Bishops a / d Members of the Gen
eral Conference: Belovkd Brethren—By
the good providence of God I have been
enabled to attend this the Fifteenth
Geuoral Conference, aud hoie closes my
membership in this grand counoil of
Methodism. »
My salutatory was lean of anything but
heart, and my valedictory I would not
present if it was not all heart. Our part
ing feeiiugs, in us far as future general
conferences are concerned, are very dif
ferent. You see other general oonfer-
eonce coming this side your grave, while
I see my grave coining iu between
this and 1878. I have, however, endeavor
ed to serve uiy generation by the will of
God,aud now 1 resign all to those who are
to come after mo. I came here hopiug to
effect some changes in our practical itine
rant pastoruto, aud in the enforcement of
discipline. These I intended as my me
morial in the 90tb year of rny life. They
have all perished ou the coa**t of a peri
lous travel. Of course rny fiieuds be
lieved it wiser to kill off these projeotious
of mine thau to »dopt them. So I go
home disappointed—go with eonviotious
deep-seated ns ever. The necessity of
these changes is only a question of time.
You have overpud tue in loving kind
nesses, and nil I oould ever desire is to
feel that I deserve them—not hucaose I
have lived a long time, but because 1 have
labored a groat deal—once with marked
success ; ot late years with much less
visible results. 1 was, in the best Metho
dist sense of it, an effective preacher for
sixty seveu years—which Dr. Puushon, of
England, s iid in my room iu Oolutubus,
March, 1878, was the longest effective
history among Methodist preachers. I
ask you to give thauks to God for all His
mercies bestowed on me, and pray for my
Hafe arrival home aud iu Heaven. I am
too feeble to ascend the stairs again. A
lovuig farewell.
L. Pierce.

BROTHER CHARLES P. WATT,
Son of Hugh Watt, waa born January 27th, 1827,
and died at his residence in Butler county, Ala
May 19th, 1874, in the 48th year of his age, after a
protraoted illness of chronic diarrhoea. H
came concerned about hia soul’s salvation at a
time when there was no oxcitemont iu the church,
and to the surprise of hia friends and acquaintan
ces came forwaid and related his experience aud
was cordially received into the fellowship of tho
church at Bethel, (I think in 1840 or ’47) and
baptised by Rev. O. C. Willis.
Sometime afterward he married Miss Sally Ely,
a help meet induod; moved to Chattahoochee
county, whero ho remaiced one year, then to
Sumter county, where ho joined tho church, and
was oriainod ns deacon. Remaining there a few
years, he moved to Alabama, where ho died.
Brother Watt waa of a delicate constitution, but
from the *imo he joined the church until the <i»y
of his death, he was an ardent and zealous worker
in Sabbath bchools, church discipline, and all be
nevolent objocts. Ho was a kiud husband, t
ing father, full of fai hand good works; he left
the world as ho had lived, a good man. Tho Bnptii
Church has lost a shilling light, his companion
one of the bost of husbands, his childwa a father
who trained them in the way they should go,
the con munity at largo a citizen •* hose hand w
always re a ‘y to work for the public good and
dispense charity to all.
In reply to a question of his wife as to where he
woul i like to be buried, he replied that it made
difference to him, so his soul was safe.
As ho had sought and found the pearl of great
prico, death had no terrors for him. He is
where pain and death will never come, and whert
the weary have eternal rest.
