Vc&- VV a learn with deep regret that
Dr. Timothy Fay , Surgeon Dentist,
fur. many years a resident of this city
but tor the past four years of Chicago,
III., died in that city recently, lie
was an estimable gentleman and many
arc his friends and acquaintances in
this State, who will lament his loss.
Louisiana Legislature —Iu ac
cordance with the Governor's Procla
mation, the Legiulature convened and
went into special session at Me
chanics' Institute, New Orleans, on
Thursday Inst.
Til« attention of both Houses was
taken up mainly in preliminary busi
ness affecting their organization.
On Friday the two Houses ad
journed until Saturday noon, in order
to give further time to country mem
burs from remote parishes to arrive ;
it appearing that there were seven
teen Senators and thirty-seven Rep
resentatives who had not yet ar
rived.
The appointment of Senate com
mittees was fixed for Monday.
A Resolution, says the True Delta,
wan introduced in the Senate by Judge
K ootic , declaring th.it the election of
this Legislature did not imply a vol.
uuUrily approval and ratification of
the C'on»tituiion of 1804 and all Leg
islative acts under it but that, on the
contary, the results of the late elec
tions is an emphatic protest against
that instrument, because the platform
upon which the members here present
were elected, with unprecedented
unanimity, declared the Constitution
of 1864 to be the "creature of fraud,
violence and corruption, and not in
any sense the expression of the people
of Louisiana," and the faith of all
candidates elected on that platform
stands pledged "to call a Convention
of the people of the State at the earli
est practicable period," for the purpose
of adopting a Constitution expressive
of the popular will. The resolution
further requests the Governor to call
an election for members to a Conven
tion at an early day, and contains
certain details as to the mode of elec
ting delegates.
Mr. Kenner proposed a resolution
(in concurrence with the House) to
appoint a joint committee, whose duty
it shall be to prepare and report such
laws of the State as may be expedient
for I he protection and security of the
porson and property of the Freedmen
of this State; lor the making their la
bor available io the agricultural inter
est of the State, etc. Laid over till
Monday.
A Hint ro Teachers .—What can
be compared with the art of forming
the character and guiding tha mind
of youth Î "To succeed in this diffi
cult undertaking," says St. Chrysos
tom, "far greater diligence is requi
red than for excelling as a painter or a
statuary." Were we asked to give an
opinion as to what quality is most
necessary for one who has the care of
children, we should say -patience—
patience with their tempers, patience
with their understandings, patience
with their progress. It is not brill
iant parts or great acquirements which
are uucessary for teachers, but patience
to go over the first principles again
and again ; steadily to add a little
every day ; never to be irritated by
willful or accidental hindrance.
The Bridge at Cincinnati.—
The threat Cincinnati bridge about to
be suspended across the Ohio river
will be the longest iu the world, being
over 2,000 feel longer than that over
the Niagara river, and therefore 550
feet longer tha® the Menai bridg« in
England. Its total epan will be 5,
057 feet. The massive »tone piers
tower 110 fe-t above the floqrof the
bridge, and 200 feet afove their fo, upd
ations. One year » tke period allow
ed for building it.
THE STATE CAPITAL.
Tha framers of the Louisiana Con
stitution "so called," of 1864, engraf
ted in that instrument, a clause trans
ferring from Baton Rouge back to
New Orlean the seat of Government.
As a measure of temporary expedien
cy to suit the then existing circum
stances of the country, it would have
been all well enough. But, to stamp
the measure with a character of per*
manency ignoring the " right, title
and interest" which our city as well
as the citizens of our State at large
had in arid to a ^establishment here
of the capital after the causes ne
cessitating its removal should have
disappeared, was theoretically and
practically wrong.
No just reason or cause now ex
ista for a continuance of this " wip
ing out" process which deprives
Baton Rouge of the privilege legiti
mately belonging to it under the
Constitution of 1852, which assigns
and permanently locates the sçat of
government at this place. The plea
of public or military necessity can
no longer be fairly urged to perpetu
ate this "abrogation of vested rights,"
no matter what the pretexts are
which may be used for that purpose.
If, as is well argued on many
hauds, the Constitution of 1844, is
an illegal framework, the offspring,
of an irresponsible and very meagre
minority of the real citizens of the
State, then the only organic law of
the State to be recognized is the
Constitution of 1852. In that case
Baton Rouge is, beyond dispute, and
of right should be and remain the
seat of government.
We regard it as an imperative
duty on the part of our Legislature
now in Bession at New Orleans, to
take this matter in hand as early as
practicable, and make summary dis
posal of it in conformity with the
principles of public justice aud the
Constitutional proviso of 1852.
The question is one which may be
viewed in the light of a constituent
element in the system of govern
mental reconstruction now going on.
It is part and parcel of the policy
which is seeking to restore the civil
fabric to its wonted bases of strength
and harmony, and as such, should be
dealt with in a spirit of fairness,
dissociated from all prejudice and
motives of selfish ambition or specu
lation.
The Legislature owes it not only
to this section, but to the State, to
replace the Capital here. The State
building, it is true, is now in an unin
habitable condition, but the walls re
main and are for the most part un
injured. It is estimated that the
building could be repaired and re
stored to its primitive condition at a
cost of not more than seventy five
thousand dollars. Meanwhile, and
until funds sufficient shall have ac
cumulated in the Treasury to justify
an expenditure of this sort, available
rooms might be had in the large and
splendid edifice known as the Asy
lum for the Deaf and Dumb and the
Blind, for the General Assembly and
State Officials. We heartily concur
with our neighbor of the Advocate in
recommending this expedient as wor
thy the favorable attention and con
sideration of the Legislature.
Look Out for Counterfeits.—
The Houston Telegraph says :
"Mr Wettermark, of this city,
showed us a $20 counterfeit bill on
Saturday last, which would be very
apt to deceive all but good judges of
paper money. The bill has the
general appearance of the counter
feit $5 bill, which we described in
last Friday's paper. It is of the old
plate, and bears date of March 10,
1863. The vignette in the centre of
the bill is very coarsely engraved,
and the medallion work is also. The
bill appears to be lithographed. The
paper is somewhat whiter and stiffer
than the genuine. It can be readily
detected by its being so poorly en
graved. The signatures are well exe
cuted, and the general appearance of
the bill is calculated to deceive all
except good judges of greenbacks.
We learn there is a large amount of
fives, tens and twenty dollar bills in
circulation, and merchants and coun
try people should be on their guard
at dî times tot them.
Contracts for Labur .— A« the
close of the crop season is rapidly
approaching, says the Picayune of
the 17th irist., it is highly important
that some agreement or understand
ing should be made and determined
on by the planters, as to the terms
and conditions for the next year's
service. It will be found greatly to
the advantage of ihe planter to set
tle upon some uniform plan, which,
whilst securing fair and even liberal
wages and good treatment to the
freedmen, will check and prevent the
great evils, both to them and the
planters, from the caprices, and irreg
ular and uucertain conduct of the labor
ers r .who for small advances or other
considerations, may be enticed from
the plantations where they are al
ready engaged. This habit, if en
couraged, will be the ruin of the plan
tations and of the negroes. Our
great staples cannot be profitably
cultivated, nor will capital enlist in
the business of planting, unless there
can be some strong assurance, some
thing approaching at least to certain
ty, that the labor can be commanded
and controlled for the season or crop
To produce such an understanding
and secure such protection, it is eng
gested that the planters meet in con
vention and agree upon a system
and the price of labor, and bind
themselves to stand by such agree
ment. Such a convention should be
assembled at as early a day as pos
sible. We have little doubt that the
regulations which would be agreed
upon would be far better for the
freedmen than the present system
which exposes them to all the acts
of competition without any of its
advantages, and deprives them of
all the benefits of permanent hopes,
and of that protection, which in
their present situation, is their great
est need and security against the
most imminent perils to which they
are exposed—those that attend an
unsettled, homeless, vagabond sort
of life.
Don't Worry .—The Divine good
ness toward our favored land has
been so remarkably manifested in ev
rv period of its history, aud especially
io conducting us safe through our late
momentous struggle, that, while we
gratefully praise our Almighty Preser
ver for all that is pa»t, it should, says
the St. Louis Republican teach us de.
voutly to trust LI im for all that's to
come. But "all men have not faith,"
and there are some unhappy croakers,
North and South, whose gloomy fore
bodings and prognostications, as to
the future remind us.^if the happy re*
büke administered to Bulsfrode
Whitelock, the Ambassador of Oliver
Cromwell to Sweden, in 1653.
While stopping at Harwicke ou the
night preceding his embarkation,
which was very stormy, he was much
«I ist urbed in mind while reflecting on
the distracted and threatening state
of the nation. It happened that a fa
vorite and confidential servant oceu.
pied an adjacent bed, who, finding
that his master could not slet-p, at
length said, "i'ray sir, will yon give
me leave to ask you a question ?'»
•Certainly." "Pray sir, don't you
think that God governed the world
very well before you came into it V
'fUudoubtedly." "Then sir—pray ex.
cuse me—but don't you think you
may trust Him to govern it quite as
well as long as you live ?" To th ; s
question Whitelock had nothing to
reply ; but, turning himself about,
soon fell fast asleep, and slept soundly
till he was summoned to embark.
Variety in Character ,—No two
leaves of the forest are exactly the
same in form or texture. No two
grains of sand from the seashore or the
great African desert are identical in
bulk or outline. Even the two drops
of water most alike in the universe
will exhibit some marks of distinction
when submitted to a powerful micro
scope. The law that excludes dupli
cates from the visible kingdoms of na
tura is also a law of the moral world.

I met thee on a winter'« daf,
With froatjr bough) o'erhung;

No robla'i carol rant !

To counterfeit her »mile and «oof. *

Of Kopre that have no tpring again.
Tl.e eye with teers may never swell,
That holds a grief at bay;

Nor any shivering pu'ses tell
The arrow's poisoDed way {
No blush may tinge the marble cheek,
And yet, the /war«, the u «abt will speak I
A shadow e'er tbe future'» east,
In tones constrained and low,
A tremor, quickly overpast.
Like leavtia, when Autumn's early blast
Soft« dowa the «udden snow ;
Ahl naught ths barren spot can hide,
Where flowers that bloom but once have died.
Yet, mask thee fnr a Utile while,
Till eye and lip grow stern ;

The fickle vow, the hollow smile
It taught thee well to team I
Yet dream not, hope not to repress
The Inward fount of bitterness.

Interbhtiko Relics —The "Old
South Church," in Newburyport,
Mass.. is a place of great interest from
its relics and reminiscences. Tbe cel.
ebrated George Whitfield, died
there, and was buried under its pulpit.
The vault is annually visited by hun
dreds, though little remains of bim.
A handful of dust in the bottom of
the coffin, and a few bones, are all
earthly of one who moved the world
by his eloquence and fiery zeal ; who
crossed and recrosaed the ocean, spoke
to the largest audiences ever gathered
by a Protestant minister, and is said
to have preached eighteen thousand
sermons. The arm bone was one«
stolen from the coffin and cariied to
England, where it remained thirty
years, when it was returned by the
repentant thief. The pulpit still con
tains, in a good state of preservation,
the old Bible printed a hundred and
fifty years ago, from which Whitfield
preached with a fervid eloquence that
touched all hearts.
When Mr. Jefferson was
asked respecting his religion, his
memorable answer was : ''It is known
io God and myself. Its evidence be
fore the world is to be known in my
life ; if that tins be^-n honest and duti
ful to society, the religion which has
regulated it cannot be a bad one."
