Farewell to ’Flfty-Eieht I
Another year adds Its records to tlio world’s
history! Another wave of the great Ooean'
of Time has rolled over the hopes and fears,
the joys and agonies, the schemes and the ex
ploits of man. The thirtieth part of a gene
ration has been changed since last New Year’s
Day. Many actors in old scenes have retired’
from the stago, and some new ones have made
their dlbut. Tie average amount of crime Has
been committed, as welt as a fair ambupt of
blunders—political, social, and personal. The
extent■ of good done is problematical. Wore
wb preaching a sermon, we might dwell on the
usual ; topics of time wasted, opportunities of
' improvement'neglected, shortcomings. and
. and all those items which help
So readtiy to fill up a tedious discourse. But
wo are not ; nor do we intend such a snrpriso
- for our readers. A .retrospect of past con
duct, howevor, is always boneflcial, beth to
tlio individnal and the nation...
In the Old‘VV’orldj thb.elements of discord
have been active and mißchlevous dtirlng the
past year. England—wom-and wasted By the
bootless war in the Crimea, where her blood
and treasure were-idly wasted, as it now ap
pears, to Increase the prettige pf French war
fare—bns been engaged in a terrific series pf
encounters in her Indian possessions, and has
maintained her position only by' immense
sacrifices. At. homo, a political crisis sud
denly precipitated .from power her craftiest
politician, whose successor will probably make
a reality of the various, reforms whioh; Ac hsd
promised. France, deprived •of even , the
show of political and personal freedom’, is at
the toot of Nayoueoh;'the most astute of
living sovereigns, who shows by action, even
more than Louis XIV did by words, that ho

upon. The hitherto as yet unaccounted
for failnro of ono of the principal hanks
of' Philadelphia, which only four years
previonsly had stood at high as aoyintho
country, with largo ahsets, and apparently un
impaired resonreos, was the -spark which
lighted the powder. These monetary crises,
soems to he chronic diseases, recusing with
more or less severity evory ton, years in
Europe as well as in this country, and evi
dently call for stringent treatment. They are,
in fact, outragoa upon society, and ought to ho
as Bternly rebuked as “Kansas outrages,” or
“ British outrages,” or any other offences of
tho liko description. Wo may thank the de
parting year for helping its through tho great
dilemma; for wo havo now seen tho extent of
the evil, and are prepared to enter upon tho
New Year’s trials with calmness and fortitudo,
it not with a lively hope that “ things will be
bettei” for the future.
Then, we have had a taste of foreign inter
ference with onr own commerco in our own
waters. Instead of being annoyed on this
point, we ought to be thankful that it has hap
pened, for it has brought to an issue tho long
vexed question of “the right of search,”
Which hag now been decided in onr favor, and
so set at rest for ever—that is, until the next
time. If another ,£ British outrage” will bo
the means of settling the Nicaragua question,
and converting tho Olayton-Bulwer treaty into

hope that it may soon happen—provided al
ways, that a more peaceful and speedy solu
tion cannot be found.
It is impossible, in glancing back at 1858,
to forget how remarkably tho Atlantic
Cable figures in it.. Some porons have
doubts (which wo do not entertain) whether
that message torn Queen Victoria ever
flashed across the wires. Thore can ho
no question, however, that the Gable has
introduced that inscrutable mystery, that
living myth, that wonderful De Sauty,
the hermit of Trinity Bay. Though nobody
appears ever to have seen him, every body
believes in his oxlstonoo, os firmly as the
existence of the Grand Tnrk is credited, and
foels that ho “ lives, a prosperous gontleman."
A fact and a lesson we havo learned in the
past year—the tact is that the sub-Atlantic
Telegraph is a possible and practicable thing;
tho lesson is, not to rejoice with premature joy,
taking commencement for completion,
Tho departed yoar will be memorable as
that wheroin occurred a vory remarkablo
rollgious movement. If Philadelphia did not
originate, yot she systematised and gave
energy to the impulse, which has spread far
and wide, visiting the moßt distant lands, car
rying new lifo and faith to many a heart, and
drawing within its current many a soul.
This great Revival has boon compared with
tho religions movement of the sixteenth cen
tury, but without sufficient warrant. The
attack of Luther and others on the Ohurch
of Rome was a warfare between Christians,
in which the whple Christian world participa
ted; the present movement, if it bo warfare
at all, is an attack upon.sin, and not upon reli
gious tenets, and la participated by tho Presby
terians, Baptists, Methodists, and, to-some ex
tent, iho Episcopalians, while tho Roman Ca
tholics, the High Church Epi scopaliana, tho
Unitarians, and seme other sectß, have kept
aloof. Still it is a great Revival, and ranks
high among the memorabilia of the past year.
Horrible disasters by land and sea, but es
pecially tho latter, havo helped to fill up the
chronlclo; and Death has been busy with tho
brightest ornaments of Sonato, Bar, an
Church.
Roverting to our .political condition, we
have seen a strong party broken pp for a time
—a Bhort time only—in consequoneo of the
desertion, by its Chief, of the principles for
which he was raised to his. exalted position;
another lesson, if such wero needed, ns to
tho extent to which we ought to place confi
dence in public men when raisod to power.
#o have soon this State, over truo to hor old
instincts of froodom, succossfUlly vindicate,
at tho various elections, that Democratic
principle, tho Sovereignty of tho People,
which pretended patriots affected to nullify,
which unstablo and false politicians have had
the effrontery to deny. The lesson was se
vere, hut necessary; the reproof, though bit
ter, was deserved. Thon, as always, the Koy-
Btone State approved horsolf faithful to the

thought, and dlotion, and aiming at inouloating
tho unpOotloal idea that it was shocking to pro

The Old Year and its Memories.
BY, GBAVBEARD.
Two noted years have now been numbered with
the past. The shower of ffnanoi&l distress Which
to thousands so saddened the closing moments of
’57, has proved to be, as good men predicted,' but
the forerunner, and soll-preparer, of a seed-sowing,
the< harvest of whioh- shall swell the, garnered
treasures of etoxnity. The fallow ground whioh
was broken by the sudden revulsion of temporal
prosperity then, instead .of being barren still, is
to day! in numberless instances laden with im
perishable fruits. The deprivations and threatened
sufferings, induced by that almost unexampled
stroke of monetary paralysis, aroused the slumber
iog heart of multitudes to do good untoothers; and
having thus been led to taste tho pleasures of the
servant,-they have since then been baptised into
tho lovo and allogianoe ,of the Master. .
It is no exaggeration to say that 1858 ha? been
a year of years in the histpry of the Redeemer’s
provisional* kingdom upon earth. It eame to ns'
welcomed with prayor; its burial with the past is
amid the iuoense of gratitude. To enumerate tho
Sum of Heaven’s blessings that have marked our
ecuntry, and tho world at large', in a sense spiri
tual, during thb year that has gone, would belike
taking an inventory of the rain-drops and , the
sunbeams that have descended upon the.world
physical. Upon tho formless and unsullied page
that came to us a year ago, what multiform and
irreversible'oharaeters are written, either to stand
forever as orystal monuments of duty nobly per
formed, or as beaoonß of reproof, whioh tho future
uovor oan amend!
Among the features stamped upon the history
of the departed year, wbioh most interest, the
Ohuroh, that are of sufficient prominenoe to be
seen without tbb miorosoopo of prophcoy,we may
namo the following: Thousands in this and other
parts of the world have been brought into “ the
marvellous light and liberty of .the Gospel”
through faith In Him who alone hath power to
save, and thousands moro who were nominally
servants, but spiritually 4«ad, have been quickened
into life. In multitudes of instances where ,the
family alar had been , broken down, or perhaps
never ereoted, the saored recognition of Divine
goodness is now habitual. Vast fields, for cen
turies buried beneath tho pall of Nature’s dark-,
ness, have been thrown wide open to the Gospel
missionary, and larger accessions than were ever
known have swelled the army of self-saorifioing
soldiers, whose mission it is to bear the Cross amid
the starless night of heathenism. The truth has
been more practically realised that Christianity is
a thing of every-day life, and not a mere metaphy
sical theory for learned theologians to differ upon.,
Mon of business have, in many, oases, learned
that true religion is as fit to be professed and
praoticed in the sales-room and the counting-house,
as within the more limited preoinots of conse
crated walls; and some there are, we know, who
have refused to engage in a more ostentatious
work, because they believe the marts of trade to
he to them the most auspicious field of Christian
usefulness. Ministers of the Gospel—to their
honor be it spoken —have begun to preach more
for their Master, and less against each other,
geots have been brought nearer together in the
bonds of love. The new Pentaoostal shower has,
at least in some degree, oleansed the glasses of
th&sohools, and enabled men to seo- tb&t to be,
Christians in deed, they must be <( one in Ohrisl.”
The opaque veil of human organizations , whioh
has heretofore held too conspicuous a place be
tween; man and his Maker, has been craoked,jf
not rent; and many:who, in the twilight ob
scurity of the -past, avoided eaeh other as ene
mies, have, under the inoroased light of 1858,.
been led to embrace each other as friends. •

surely becomes us all to treasure with gratitude
the memories of the year that has dosed. Adieu,

The political exoitement in this Stale at present
tlmo, caused by the recent intelligence from the

The establishment of a lino of steamers between
San Francisco and Obina Is earnestly advocated
by our leading journals, and seriously thought of

commercial cities of the East.
The recont treaty with China, and the uncon*
coaled preference for Americans which animates
the Chinese Government; the constantly inoreas*
ing commeroe with Japan incident to the treaty
with that empire ; the opening of the overland and
Tehuantepec routes, placing us in vastly improved
intercourse with the Atlantic States; tho re
doubled faith now entertained by Gnlifortnans
in the well-tested superiority of their own country;
tho opening of several new ports of China to
American oommeroe, and many othor weighty
considerations, all point to the immediate es
tablishment of steam oommunioation between
San Franolsoo and China, as a measure of para
mount importanoo. A steamer could easily
make the voyage from Slianghae Franoisoo
in fifteen or eighteen days; her merehandise could
bo landed here and transhipped to New Orleans
via the Tehuantepec route in fifteen days more,
and from thence to the Atl&ntio markets in six or
soven days—making from thirly-6ix to forty days
to land fresh teas, silks, and other Chinese pro
duce in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore;
whereds, at present time, it oonsumes, by direot
oommunioation between those last-named oities
and China, three and a half to four and a half
months. I think ore long the plausibility of snob
an enterprise will consummate one of the greatest
projootsof the age.

allowed to languish for a,time by the Archbishop:
but while others thought that hehhdgiveuup this' 1
most unwise measure, he was seoretly urging it at i
Romo, where, unfortunately forithe Ohurohin this
country, by his work oh the Pbimaov and other
compilations, andhisclaimihgforhimselfthkthe is
pdr excellence the guardianof the Churoh in this '
copntry, be, has a. large influence. . Thus has he :
succeeded in getting the'Pope committed to the
project. While Arcnbishop Hughes, Bishop Fite--
Patrick, and many .other,ißhiumg.lights.in the
.Church, men who mixed in society, were using all
thoir influence to harmonize the'Ohuroh in non*
essentials with the institutions and‘people Of
< J onn try, Arohbishop, Kenrick was preparing
this anti-American, anti- (as I believe) Roman
Catholic movement; for if, as I believe it will, it
brings trouble on the Church, then it is.no t a i
Catholic. bu]t, an anti-Catholic movement,. Aroh- *
bisbop Kenrick Succeeded in hating the ordere '
sent to this country to assist it; but recolleot, as it 1
is not a matter of faith that you. shall do so, you '
are at liberty to judge of. the polioy of the mo.ye- i
ment/aud give; or not, as you may think proper.' 1
not cordially supported by the native American ■ 1
clergy; it is oondemned by many of them~by many -
intelligent bishops, archbishops,,and priests in'tHis
country,iwho; as well as layman, say that their- ,
> daily experience satisfies: them that we should ,
a native American olergy,- eduoated nmrmg
the people they are hereafter to minister .to.' 'One ,
ofi the first: movements -of missionaries is to get
native? eduoated for the priesthood, because ,of .
thpir greater influence. with the people. Aroh- ,
bichop Hughes; in New York, at St. Patriot’s Ca- \
thedral, on the 12th inat., said: “ You know that,'. ’
so! far as human legislation and. the force of the
most pewerfnl Government in the world could
accomplish it, the Ohhrch of Christ was extinguish--
ed in the British islands./ Eduoationwas’prohibit-!
ed to Catbolios in them all;,and if they crossed the .
seas to obtain lt, that also was aoriine'against the
law, punishable by imprisonment, *and iu certain
contingencies, bv death-- • And it was under • those
oiroumatanoes that the spirit of teaching in the
Cburob of God’opened oollegesfor the education of
Eoglish, Scotch, and Irish ln Spain:
Inf Germany, in ■ France, ,iu;Belgium; jthe‘3pofs of
the universities were .thrown open, and even spe
cial colleges of their own were provided by'the
generosity of those nations, or the liberality of the
persecuted flooks,- whom they afterwards were to
minister at the oost of their lives. ' But, above
all, it was in Rome, by the invitation of pontiff s ,'
that provision was made for those unhappy conn*
tries.”.
I am always proud to havo the great'prelate of
Now York with, mo In the above paragraph he
fhows that it was only under the most unheard-of
tyranny—it was only wheneducation was pro
hibited to Oathollcs”—that they left their own,
their native land, to be eduoated in foreign, coun
tries, with what results to the poaoo of the coun
try let the differ hatred between the Roman
Catholic, prioits and the Government of England
testify. Does suoh persecution exist here? Is
“.eduoation prohibited to Catholics” in all the
States, or in any? No, no. Then why send our
youths abroad for their 'eduo&tion? Why not
consolidate and improve our own colleges ? Why
not encourage Amerioan youth to enter into the
Church, the most honorable calling on earth ?
Had it not been that it was felony, ayo, felo- ,
ny, by aot of Parliament, -to be eduoated for the
pj-iestbood in Ireland, the youths of that country
would never have been sent from their native land
''to be educated in other countries. The experience
of Ireland is unfavorable to a foreign-educated
olergy. Arohbishop Hughes feels the foroe of the
objection. In order to meet it, he says:
v “ An Amerioan youth will not he aa alien under
its roof—its management, its reotor, and professors
will be Americans. It will be as if they carried
so dmoh of their own country with tbem—their
training, their eduoation, the discipline of the
house, and all things in connection with it
will bo especially adapted for the peculiar institu
tions and wants of their ownoountry.”
Why all this trouble; why transport everything
thousands of miles to do Msrs, what with the same
materials toe can do as well here? Would suoh
a'propositiou be reoeived as sound aa a political
question. Most assuredly not. Exoepuon has
boon tnken to calling it a pauper -institution.
Arohbishop Hughes says :
1 “Tho idea is that eaoh bishop may send two or
threo of those whose merits and talents and other
necessary qualities have .entitled them to suoh dis
tinction.”
’Must not suoh an arrangement work as I have
stated ? Will not these be oharlty students?
Exception is taken to my saying that it will
break down our own institutions. There are
at prosent in the United States forty-six arch
bishops and bishops. Allowing that eaoh one
should send threo students annually, (and some
would send many more if the college gets a sup
port,) thete would, iat only three students for
eaoh arohbLhop, be annually sent to Rome one
hundred and thirty-six students, and so soon as
the first set were eduoated, it would furnish that
number of priests for the United States. If the ave
rage life of these foreign-educated priests should
fifteen years, they would in that time number
two thousand and seventy, which is eighty-seven
more than all tho priests now in the United States,
their number being nineteen hundred and eighty
threo. Would not this break down our own in
stitutions? lor, recollect, as our peoplo increase
so will the number of onr arohbishops and bishops,
and, oonsequontly, the number of. students an
nually sent to Rome, allowing a five yoars* resi
dence, the sending of one hundred and forty-six
annually would aggregate at one time seven
hundred and thirty students. This is not a large
number to havo at a grand oollege, and oan
easily be furnished from the pauper youth of
our country. “Carroll.”
Brain Work,
, Over-work of the brain, against whioh wo hear
so many people ery, and whioh we hear so many
cosy-looking men deplore very oomplaoently in
their own persons, is no f , by a gooi deal, so dan
gerous as underwork of tho brain. Bays Dickens, in
a recent number of the Household Words. The
Rev. Onesimus Howl drops his ohin and elevates
his eyes, upsets his digostion with excess of tea
and muffins, and supports, upon the doughy face
he thus aoquires, a reputation for the great strain
on bis brains, o&used by the outpouring of a
weekly puddle of words. His friends labor to prop
up his brain with added piles of muffin. Paler
becomes bis face, and more idlotio his expression,
as ho lives from New .Yoar’s Day to New Year’s
Day, rattling about in his empty bead the few
ideas of other mon he has oontrivod to borrow, and
tranquilly olaims all the aweots of indulgence on
account of tho strain put upon his wits Doctor
Porpioe is wheeled about, from house to house, in
hiaßrougham, prescribes hia oordials and his mild
aperients; treats, by help of what knowledge ga
thered from a past generation may happen to have
grown into the hamt/of praotioe, all the disease he
sees ; now and then turns to a book when he is puz
zled, but more commonly dozes after dinner Yet,
very gladly does thedootor hear tho talk about im
mense strain on his mind, large pMOtioe, great
responsibility, and the wondering that one poor
head can carry all he knows. Ho'seldom passes a
day without having taken oaro to oonfidc to some-
Indy that lie is overworked Once a week, indeed,
if hia practice be large, he may be forced into some
effort to use his brains, bfit that he really does ex
erciso them once a week I am not certain. The
lawyer elevates his routine into a crush of brain
work
The author and tho merchant flatter themselves,
or aooount themselves flattered, by an applioation
to their labors also of the same complimentary
condolence. The truth is, that hard work of the
brain, takon alone—opart from griefs and fears,
from foroed or voluntary stinting of the body’s
need of food .or sleep, and the mind’s need of
social interoourao—does infinitely moro to pro
long life and strengthen reason, in the workers,
than to out or fray the thread of either.
Men brenk down under grind of want, under the
Btrain of a continuous denial to tho body r.f its
half dozen hours a day of sleep, it< few
sary pounds of wholesome food, and its occasion
al exoroise of tongue and legs If an au hor
spends his wholo life in his study, his mind fails
under tho pressure of the solitary system
If a great lawver refuses himself, month after
mouth, the neoesaary fourth pert of the day for
sleep, he wears his brain out, not by repletion of stu
dy, but privationofsomething olse. UnderaUordi
nary ciroumstances, no man who performs work
for whioh he is competent is called upon to deny
himaeU tho first necessaries of life, except daring
Koriox to wßuwniiiDran.
