The style of Victor Hugo is well hit off m
the following parody. It professes to be one
of the poet’s oracular letters. It is addressed
to a poetaster who sends the great author his
comedy Ajdxticidcs, and is perhaps got up
as a puff for that work:

FREEJDMEN’S SCHOOLS IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.
The following letter received by the Freed
men’e Aid Association here, from one of its
teachers in Carolina, will be
found very interesting:
Aixek, S. C., Feb. IS, 18G').— Dear Sir:
We forward by this mail our monthly report,
which Will give you some idea of the school,
although the mere statistics cannot show you
how much we all enjoy the new books and
desks, which add so greatly to our progress.
Just give us a call some morniDg at 1) o’clock,
and see nearly a hundred children come into
my room, of twenty feet square, where they
accommodate each other good naturedly
while reciting a Psalm, or suitable chapter,
then repeat the Lord’s Prayer, and afterwards
sing some hymn, in a way that cannot be de
scribed or understood, except by those who
have heard the plaintive wail that runs through
all the music of Hub slave -born people. It is
most touching when heard in their plantation
songs, and makes one feel, that in their most
joyous melodies there is a touch of sorrow,
an accepted grief. Any one hearing them
for the first time cannot help feeling they
are God’s children, and His will broke the
shackles and made them free. After the ex-
the further advanced pass into
Mary’s room, and with about fifty apiece, we
begin the day’s work, and work it is for the
teacher and pupil. Our rooms will only ac
commodate sixteen desks, made for two, at
every one of which we have three, two large
and ane small one wedged in, even then
several sit round promiscuously; and
although I refused several last’ week
because of no room, my courage failed
to-day, when a boy came who
had moved here on purpose to come to
school. One man came with a boy whose
father had brought him ninety miles, that he
might attend school. They two (the man
and boy) five alone, and he is one of my best

FRENCH tITERATL
The recent death of two men of letters,
Paulin Limayrac, the journalist, and Georges
Detouche, jtuilletonwle, recalls to the mind
of the Paris correspondent of Childs's Pub
lisher’s Circular the principal facts of their
lives:
The world of letters has been painfully
touched by an occurrence just made public.
It certainly shows the light esteem in which
literary men are held by those who make
most use of them. You are, I believe, fam
iliar with M. Paulin Limayrac’s history. 1
have repeatedly related in these letters pas
sages from it. He acquired a good deal of
reputation as a writer in Pa Presse, where
he proved to be a sound republican., After the
Coup d'Elat he was offered a lucrative post
oh Pe Vonslitutionnel, which he accepted,
ahd where he showed himself as sound an
imperialist as he bad approved himself a repub
liican. He very justly lostcaste inconsequence
of this interested somersault, and he had
not been long in his'hew post before the town
was made very merry by a publication which
presented in parallel columns his articles op,
the same subjects which had appeared in ia.
Presse and Pe Consiitutionnel. Although
his personal authority was gone, still, as he,
spoke in the name of the FreAch government
he rendered effective service to his new mas
ters. He discharged theso. duties to general
satisfaction for twelve or flfteeh years, and in
thislabor contracted diseaseof the heart. The
proprietors of Pe ÜbnstUutibnnel changed,
aDd thero Were. someJchanges in the'gdv&n4
ment, whieh made it desirable M. Paulin
Limayrac should retire from his place on
Pe Constituiioniiet. ■ The place ‘was
lucrative, the salary was $6,000 a year,
and a carriage and horses were, provided by
the newspaper, The burdens Were heavy.
Little remained at the end of-the year. The
Emperor gave him (he desired, it/ the place
of Prefect of Hot: county, and promised to
give him, something better in time. Soon af
ter he entered upon his. official duties he died
suddenly of disease of thp heart. , He had
been obliged to go into debt to furnish his
official residence and make ether costly ar
rangements .unavoidable in this country
when one enters upon office. His
untimely death threw his widow into
most distressing embarrassment. She was
absolutely without money. She hastened to
Plombieres to implore the French Emperor’s
assistance. He retUßed to receive her. She
came to Paris and besought the Minister of
the Interior (an oid friend of her husband in
the days of his prosperity), to aid her. He
said he could do nothing tor her. I am told
ehe IS 1 to receive a petty pension of $260 a
year. She has advertised all her husband’s
personal property to be sold. _ There are
people who Bay she is served right, for no
literary man should desert the public, which
is a much more, generous patron than any
crowned or uncrowned patron that ever lived.
I cannot pronounce so Bevere a,sentence on
distress.
M. Georges Detouche, an unhappy man of
letters who had tried repeatedly to kill him
self, died several weeks since in the Hospital
Necker. A few weeks since he threw him
self under the wheels of a cart, and though
dreadfully mangled, it was believed he would
recover. He received internal injuries, which
proved fatal after ninety days or almost inn
interrupted pain. He had a sort of mono
mania for suicide. He had been cut down
once after attempting to hang himself, and
had been brought to his senses after attempt
ing to commit suicide with charcoal.
The day he threw himself under a cart’s
wheels be went to the top. of the triumphal
arch to leap from it, but on looking down he
became afraid he rtyglj) r, '(jj a literary am
ff6h~ wasl,o" write the Gil Bias or the Don
Quixote ot the nineteenth century. He said
that, to write a work of that sort, an author
should live his w oik, and make It a record
of his own experience—a very common but a
very false theory. In attempting to execute
it he lost, his mind, his health, his posi
tion, and ended his career by a suicide’s
death.
VIGILANCE COMMITTEE IN NEW
YORK.
The Air Gun, the SlungHbot and tlic
Dagger no Lunger to ttun Miot iu
llllr ttrtets-Vigilanies to be Pro*
by Coroners’ Jurieu.
The New York Sun of yesterday says :
We are surrounded, enveloped, nay, im
mersed in crime. In the cryptic places and
dungeon holes of the thieves’ quarters in New
York, the lowest and moßt degraded
wretcheß who are lost to conscience, to hope
and to mercy assemble nightly to concoct
erimeß against person and estate. Murders
are a daily crop. Dear friends, well in the
morning, go out to business, and are brought
home mutilated corpses. Old men go out to
sweep the sidewalk, and be cut to pieces
with knives. Gentlemen sitting quietly iu
their own rooms, awaiting company, are
seised, bound, gagged, robbed and threatened
with a bullet if tney resist. Robberies are
committed in the public streets, as a sort of
make-up farce to the heavy tragedy
of the murders. Slungshots; the deadliest
of murder weapons, are used with deadly
frequency and freedom. Said a venerable, well
informed stranger to a citizen, the other day,
“No man is safe, nor woman, either; though
by your detective arrangements you seem
to say so.” Nay, more, we have every reason
to believe that some recreant members of the
police organization itßelf are in league with
ihe thievia, murderers, assassinß and house
breakers. There was Skidmore, who, when
arsested a year ago, turned out to have been
the chiel villain of a gang of such for a long
time, who, before his discharge from the ser
vice, took advantage ofhiß position to Soreen
himself and his associates. His house was
full of burglars’ tools and implements of vio
lence. He was a cunning, merciless wretch,
who took delight in murder as an amusement,
and in robbery as a meanß of living and dis
sipation. He used the most cowardly of all
the weapons ever invented for the perpetra
tion of crime—the sneaking, white-livered
air-gun—that does its business without noise,
and takes life in open day, in the midst of
crowded streets.
Wo regard the introduction of this new
weapon of secret murder as the most dreadful
omen of public danger. It haß filled the air
with terrors and inconceivable dreads. It is
as if a conspiracy of the most deadly and de
termined character bad been entered into, by
a secret and mysterious gang of übiquitous
fiends in human shape, for the destruction of
the human race. Vigilance Committees are
being formed in town and country, aad it is
ibis alarming riot of crime that has driven
good citizens to this last resort of desperation.
The Vigilance Committee of Westchester is
understood to have been formed to support
an extraordinary police force, in addition to
the ordinary force, and to act in conjunction
with the uniformed policemen that aro to be
Eeen in the streets; but the secret force is so
to be managed as to defy the most searchiug
scrutiny of the 3 thieves. We may add that
the Westchester side of the Harlem river is
soon to be made a very, unsafe place for
thieves.
The organization .ol the New York Vigi-
llnce Qbmmittee is progressing; but we have
alreadymade known as mtocb'asour Reporters
know of its plans, and nothing further need
be katd at this time. J'
' Newark. Orange, Hudson City, and other
towhs on the western banka of the Hudson,
and the people of Btaten Island; are seriously
talking of Vigilance Committeeß on the West
chehter olan. V ,
We do not understand that' in any case it
has been proposed to resort to. ,t he Ban Fran
cisco Vigilance Committee’s extremities; but
it will not astonish us if a number; of burglars
are shot within the next fortnight, nor need
the community think it remarkable that Coro
ners’ juries justify , the Vigilantes; that do the
shooting. 1 At about one o’clock yestefdiy
morning, Augustus Meshere was found on
the sidewalk in Division, street with his head
severely cut, seemingly by a bullet. He
could give no account,,of the,occurrence,
further than that he felt a suddon blow at the
black of hie head, and ho then became un
conscious. He was taken to the Madison
Street Police Station. '

the Confederacy to fightijatd and fast. Our
vast resources made Us stronger through de
lay, while the s poverty, of the* Bouth made a
rapid war a necessity.; The only hope of the
leaders lay in whipping ub while the Confed
eracy bad the slrebgth; yet this man, slow,
methodical, and Stupid, hot only failed to re
alize this great fact, tmVcOiiyihced himself of
the contrary. Not only this, but he failed to
see, and take advantage of the many oppor
tunities that the stupidity of our officers
opened to him. Btonewall Jackson, for ex
ample, drove Gen: Banks dowh the Bhenan
doah Valley into Harper's He ought
to have continued the phaseinto Washington
city. McClellan had drained' the capital of
its troops, and there was > nothing to meet
Stonewall but the open armsof these blessed
citizens again. Lee should have followed
Pope into Washington after the second Bull
Run, and not have given McClellan time to
reorganize the shattered and demoralized
army.
Tbefoct of hia being a Lee of Virginia,
weighed him.down. He labored daring the
war as he labors now, under the beliet that
he was somebody, from the accident of birth.
A man to be anything, under such circum
stances, in this part of God’s creation, must
be a great mao. Lee is far from great, in
any sense of the term. Even admitting his
superiority as a military man,he falls far short
of the standard set up by bis admirers.
Understanding the man, with all his little
ness of family pride, it most have been hard
for him to have given up this old ancestral
home with its wide acres, and its pleasant
view of the broad Potomac sweeping by, and
yet belonging to it, like the word-wide fame
of Washington, that seems its attribute and
charm, and the capital of his country, that
appeared to look npon and approve of its
claim to aristocricy. That the fallen chief
tan yet turns longingly to his old home, we
have the best of proof.
One dreary, foggy morning; late last au
tumn, a gentleman, unattended, rode Up and
dismounted near the honse. He was a mao
of military appearance, although in civilian
dreßs, save the army cloak hecarried,and the
spurs that rattled at his heels. His fade, fur
rowed with care,and* his hair and beard white
as snow, indicated more age than his form,
measured and dign fled*
Visitors to this noted place are so frequent
that his appearance attracted no attention.
He walked through the dreary hall, and
looked in on the wide, vacant rooms, and
passing to the front, stood’ for some time
gazing out over the beautiful panorama, with
its one great feature, the new dome of the old
capitol, surmounted by a bronze statue of
Liberty armed, and with her back to him,
gazing seaward.
From this he passed to the garden, and
looking ever the line of officers’graveß thu
bound its sides, saw the dying flowers, and
wilted borders, and leaf-strew a walks, and
continuing after a slight pause, he stopped
on the edge of the fields, where the sixteen ■
thousand Union soldiers lie buried in lines,as
if they bad lain down, after a review, to be
interred in their places. Some negroes were
at work here, raking up the fallen leaves, aud
one old man stopped suddenly and stared at
the visitor as if struck mute with astonish
ment. He continued to gaze in this way un
til the stranger, walking slowly, regained his
horse and rode away, when he dropped his
rake and said to hiS companions:
“Shua as de Lord, men, dat was old mas
sah Lee.”
One hastens to imagine the thoughts and
feelings that must have agitated this fallen
chief as he stood thus, like Marius amid the
rains of Carthage, on the one spot of all
olheis, to realize the fact of the Lost Cause
and its eventful history. About him were
the scenes of hiß youth—the home of hia hon
ored manhood- I —the scenery that gave beauty
to the peaceful joys of domestic life. They
were nearly ail the same, and yet between
then and now came the fierce war, the huge
campaigns and hundred battleß, loud with the
roar of mouthing cannons, and rattling
musketry, and stained into history by the
blood of thousands; the smoke of burning
bouses, the devastation of wide States, and
the desolation of the households, and all in
vain. He stood there, old betore his time,
the nationality so fiercely straggled for un
recognized, the great Confederacy a dream,
his home a graveyard, and the Capitol he
sought to destroy grown to twice its size,
with the bronze goddess gazing calmly to the
East
And all this is so near one can almost fancy
he hears the sullen roar of retreating artillery,
that fought as it fell back, literally dying out
in the last ditch.
One can imagine this, and put a soul under
the ribs of death, for, in all human proba
bility, this cold-blooded man was looking to
see what state of preservation his old property
is in, with a view of reclaiming it some day,
when a more friendly party comes to power.
I had a long talk with the old man who
claimed to have recognized Gen. Lee.
“Well,” I said, “arn’t you sorry, after all,
you haven’t the old times, with the Lee fam
iiy, back again?”
“No, sab,” he responded; “can’t say I is,
sah. I’se very cumfutable; got my own home.
God bressde President Linkum.”
“Well,fdidn’tyou have a comfortable time
with the old family.”
“No, sab; can't say it was, Bah. You see
I’s rby own master now. Ef I don’t get out
6’ mornin’s, cause ob de rheumatiz, dare ain’t
any caused oberseer a cornin’ round wid a
whip to hurry de ole man up, sah. No, sah,
der aiD’t.” ’
“Wbat, 1 do you mean to say there was any
whipping on this place ?”
“Wbippin’! Does yer whip ycr hoßk,
say ? De beat man in de world whips his
hoss. Well, eah, we waß de hosses. Whip
pin’ ! I’s hearn de wimmen, an’ de old men

**jsut voting wont put food in yqor mouth ;
and clothes on your back, nor take care or

takes ober to Washington an’selß does all
dat sah; an’ I’se got a mighty nice lot ib
money in Gen. Howard’s savin bank—l haß,

The picture so graphically given by the old
man of the whipping waa not agreeable; but
it is out of just such as this that the flower of
Virginia chivalry grows. . D. P.

It is now said that Abbe Liszt went to
Rome with the persuasion he would certainly
be made a nuncio to some European court
and a cardinal. " He became a prießt for no
ofher reason. The Pope has an aversion to
attists, and when he heard Abb6 Liszt’s am
bition and complaints of being allowed to
Vegetate a mere nobody, though a man of
transcendant genius, the Pope exclaimed:
that little muatco, a nuncio 1 a cardi
nal ! I shall not make him so much as a mon

in Rome, hoping to obtain some -title; but
When he found the Pope determined to grant
him no promotion, he quitted Rome and the

protect its own interest.it gave the companies authorized
to build U such ample aid as should render its speedy
completion beyond a doubt The Government aid may
be briefly summed upas follows:
First—The right of hud all nieecaeary timber and
stone from public domain.
Second—lt makes a donation of 13.800 acres of land to
the mile. Which* when the road Is computed.will amount
to twenty-three million (2a000,009> acres, and all of it
within twenty (20) miles of the railroad.
Third—lt loans the companies fifty million dollars
. (SW.OQUGW), for which it takes a second Uen. - - - -
The Government has already loaned Union Pacific
Railroad twenty four million and fifty-eight thousand
dollars (624,058,000). and to the Central Pacific Railroad
eeventeen million eix hundred and forty-eight thousand
dollars (817,648 000), amounting in all to forty-one million
■even hundred and eix thousand dollars (641,706,000).
The Companies are permitted to issue their own First
Mortgage Bonds to the same amount as they receive from
the United States, and no more, The companies have
ebld to permanent investors about ($lO 000.000) fortv mlb
lir.n dollars of their First Mortgage Bonds. The com.
psuied have already paid in (including net earnings not
divided, grants from State of California, and Sacramento
city and ban Francisco), upwards of (825,000,000) twenty
five million dollars of capital stock.
WHAT IB THERE YET TO BE DONE?
In considering this question It must be remembered that
all the remaining iron to finish the road is contracted for.
and the largest portion paid fer and now delivered on the
lice of the Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific
Railroad, and that the grading Is almost finished. ...
WHAT RESOURCES HAVE THE COMPANIES TO
FINISH THE ROAD f
First—They will receive from the Government as the
i cad progresses about 69,000,000 additional.
Second—They can issue their own Pint Mortgage
Bonds for about £9,000.000 additional.
Third—The companies now hold almortall the land
they have up to f bi* time received from the Government;
upon the completion of the road they Will have received
in all 23,0uQ»000 acres, which at 81 60 per acre would be
worth 834£uQ.00a
in addition to the above tho net earnings of the roads
r.nd additional capital, if necessary, could be called in
finish the road.
WAY BUSINESS—ACTUAL EARNINGS.
No one ties ever expressed a doubt that as soon, as the
road is completed its through business will be abundantly
tijtiataDlOv
Grose earnings of the Union Pacific Bail
road Company for ate months, ending
January 1*t,1&63, were upwards of $3,000,000

The present grotß earnings of the Union and Central
Pacific Railroads are $ 1*2*50,000 monthly.
HOW LARGE A BUBINES9 IS IT SAFE TO PREDICT
FOR THE GREAT PACIFIC RAILROAD?
We would give the following facts derived from Ship
ping Lists* Insurance Companies* Railroads and genera)
inlormatlon:
Ships going from the Atlantic around Cape
Hern, 100 80,000 tons.
Stesnuhips connecting at Panama with Cali
fornia and China, 55 120,000 tons.
Overland Trains, Stages, Horses, etc., etc.... BU.OOO tons
B era we have two hundred and thirty thousand tons
carried westward, and experience has shown that fn the
last few yean the return passengers from California
have been nearly as numerous as those going.
HOW MANY PABSENGERB ARE THERE?
We make the following estimate:
110 Steamehips (both wayß) 70.0G0 (actual for 18d&)
2uo Vessels M 4,000 estimated *'
Overland *' 100,000 •* *•
Number per annum.... 174.000
Present price (averaging half the cost of the steam
ships), for both passengers and tonnage, gives the follow
ing result:
174.100 passengers at 8100 , .$17,400,000
460,(00 tons, rated atBl per cubic foot.. UMM4OOO
Basing calculation upon the above figures, without al
lowiDg for the large inn ease of business, which can
safely be looked for, then estimate the running expenses
atone half and we have a net income of $16,&20,000;
which, after paying the interest of tho First Mortgage
Bonds and the advances made by the Government, would
leave a net annual Income of 89,000,000 over and above all
expenses and interest.
The First. mortgage Bonds o( tbe
rxilon Pacific liatlroad company and
tli© First mortgage Bonds of the Cen
tral Pacific Haiiroad to. t are both)
principal and interest, payable in
Bold coin; they pay six percent* inter
est in gold coin, and run for thirty
yeurs, and they cannot bo paid before
that time without the consent of the
holder*

The' Secretary of the Treasury, In compliance
U with a resolution heretofore adopted, transmitted
to the HousCf joaterday, a letter.wlth enclosures,
with reference to the removals v in _ the Philadel
phia Custom-house, from-which it appears that
the Secretary instructed Edward Hartley, Special
agent, to inquire and report .what.. redactions
couid be made in the force with' a view tp
economy. In accordance with his recommenda
tions, the Surveyor of the Port was requested
by the Secretary to send to him the names
of each Inspectors as conid be dispensed
with. - This officer did eo, and the Secretary made
a like request ef the Collector, who, instead of
reporting to him the names of each persons as
should be dispensed with, informed the Secretary
that he had discontinued twelve Inspectors. The
Secretary, in September last, wrote the Collector
a letter, disapproving of his action, and directed
bIU td restore them to dntv.’reservlng for fatrirc
consideration the snbject of redaction. The Sur
veyor was Instructed to retain on duty the lusoec
tora who had been discontinued by the Collector,
and tho Collector was then directed to discon
tinue tho service of. the twelve inspectors Darned
by the Surveyor. On November 20, the Collec
tor reported that be bad dismissed twelve inspec
tors, but.inetead of dismissing tbe twelve named
by .the Surveyor, he had eabititated the names
of twelve others, in violation of the instructions
oi the Department Upon tbe reception of the
Collector’s letter, stating tbe action he had taken,
a letter was sent to tho Surveyor to discontinue
tbe twelve inspectors namedln the department's
Jetteiy Ip ,U>o . Collector; and reinstating
all ..others until the Department approved
the " removals, and the Collector was
Informed that his action was disapproved
by Ufe Secretary. In December the Surveyor re
ported that tho Collector refused to pay tho ln
epcctors-whose dismissal tbe Dopartmenthod dis
approved, and on December 11, a letter was
•written to the Collector by tho Secretary, direct
ing him to pay those Officers on the proper cer
tificates' or-the inspectors. Tbe Collector refused
to oomply wilh tho order of the Departmcntoond
tho Surveyor forwarded the accounts, whichfwwe
paid by the Department for December. Tbosp
for January were suspended in conformity with

[Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin. 1
Washington, Feb. 9 The discussion In the
Senate on the constitutional amendment was
continued daring the whole of last night, and it
was not until half-post eleven o'clock this morn
ing that a recess was token until twelve o'clock.
The ' debate was very spirited throngh

of the Senators remained In their seats listening
closely to the line of arguments. The longest
speech against the principle of universal suffrage
was made by Senator Norton, who spoke two
fctnire. Between six and seven o’clock this morn
ing, Senator Tates made an eloquent and
earnest appeal for the rights of the colored race,
and for the. proposed amendment. Although
Epeoking bnt a half hoar, he succeeded in
thorougbly arouslng the Senate, and was closely
listened to by his colleagues, and wa9 warmly
congratulated on closing.
,: No speech doting the entire debate has at
tracted so mnch attention, with perhaps the sin
gle exception of Mr. Samner’s.
At twelve o'clock, when the Senate reassem

Mr. Dixon renewed his motion to amend by
striking out tho Legislatures and inserting the
word “Conventions,” eO iss to require tho ratifi
cation of the pending amendment by conven
tions.
The discussion of the general question of the
policy and propriety of the proposed amendment
again- sprang’up, and was participated Tn by
Messrs. Dcolittle, Conness, Fessenden and .Hen
dricks.
-Mr. Williams urged the necessity of exclnding
Chinamen from citizenship and .political power
in this conhtiy, lest, having these, they should
come over in such numbers as to take possession
of the country.
Hocsk.— Mr. Brooks, rising to a correction of
the jonrnal. referred to the fact that evening ses
sions bad been agreed upon by unanimous con
sent, with the understanding that they should be
exclusively lor the consideration of the tax bill;
and yesterday, also; by unanimous consent, the
consideration of the Army Appropriation
bill should be the exclusive business of lost even
ing, and that, nevertheless, other business Lad
been transacted last evening, indudingjhe pas
sage of a bill for the sale oi tbe steamer Atlantic,
atid of ihe concurrent resolntlon ln reference to
the electoral vote of Georgia,&c He moved that
these 'latter proceedings be expunged from the
journal of the House.
The Speaker stated that if the facts stated by
the gentleman from New York were correctly
stated, as the gentleman supposed .they were, the
point would nave been a. good one, bht the ar
rangement as to the business of the evening ses
sions ou both occasions had not been made by
unanimous consent, but a suspension of
the rules.
Is proof of this, the Secretary read extracts
from the proceedings os published in the Globe.
Mr. Blaine slated that be had framed his mo
tion yesterday with special regard to allowing
a motion to suspend the rules In order to pnt on
its passage the concurrent resolution relating to
the electoral vote of Georgia.
Mr. Wood desired to «ay that 107 members
of the Honse appeared to have been laboring un
der the same impression as his colleague (Brooks)
and himself, that no business was to be trans
acted last night except the Army Appropriation
bill.
He asked unanimous consent to have his vote
recorded against the concnrrenl resolution in
reference to Georgia.
The Speaker said that nnder the rule unani
mous consent eodid not bo asked.
The House then proceeded to the business of
the morning hoar, tho consideration of the
bill to authorize the building of a Military and
Postal Railroad from Washington to New York.
Mr. McCarthy having charge of the bill In the
absence of Mr. Cook, reported from the Commit
tee on Roads and Canals an amendment striking
onl the fifth section of the bill, which authorizes
the company to make railroad connections with
other companies, and to amend the sixth section
by making the schedule Ume between Washing
ton and New York seven hours instead of four.
Mr. Kerr proceeded to address the committee
)n opposition to the bill.. '
Remarkable Pastoral Bettor by Riobop
'. Coxe
The Proteetam Episcopal Bishop of the I)Ioce H o of
Western New York has issued the following pastoral
letter, appropriate to the season of Lent:
• * * “The enormities of theatrical exhibitions,
and the lasciviousness of dances too commonly tole
rated in our times, are there eo specially pointed out
as disgraceful to the age and irreconcilable with the
Go. pel of Christ, that I feel It my duty to the souls of
my nock to warn those who run with the world to ‘the
same excesa of riot’ In these things that they pre
sumo not to come to the Boly Table. Classes preparing
for confirmation are informed that I will not lay
hands, knowlDgly, on any one who Is not prepared to
renounce snch things, with father abominations of ‘the
world, the flesh and the devil.’ Let all such choose
deliberately whom they will serve; and if salvation be
worth striving for, let them he persuaded to a sober
life, to self-denials, and to the pure and innocent en
joyments which the Gospel not only permits, bat
which it only can create. It la high time that the lines
should bo drawn between worldly and Godly living;
and 1 see no Use In a Lent that la not sanctified to such
ends.
“1 have heretofore warned my flock against tho
blood guiltiness of anfe-natal infanticide. If any
double existed heretofore, as to the propriety of my
warnings on this subject, they mast now disappear
before the fact that the world ttsclf le beginning to be
