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 ooin, end it wee rejected by . lerge me- 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 Thy pa u friend; liy fears «h Please be so kind as to publish a short criticism, with an extract. We must plead ignorance. Will some correspondent answer ? %*Several letters remain over to be an swered in our next. Correspondents must not expect replies the week follow ing their letters. 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.

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.
