I. I.E JARDIN.
The lily's withered cbalice falls P
Around its tod of dusty gold,
And from the beech trees on the wold
The last wood-pigeon coos and calls.
The gaudy leonine sunflower
Hangs black and barren on its stalk.
And down the windy garden walk
The dead leaves scatter hour by hour.
Pale privet-petals white as milk !
Are blown into a snowy mass ;
The roses lie upon the grass
Like little shreds of crimson silk,
II. LA MEIt.
A white mist drifts across the shrouds.
A wild moon in this wintry sky
Gleams like an angry lion's eye
Out of a mane of-tawny clouds. 1
The muffled steersman at the wheel
Is but a shadow in the gloom;
And in the throbbing engine room
Leap the long rods of polished steel.
The shattered storm has left its trace
Upon this huge and heaving dome,
For the thin threads of yellow foam
Flont on the waves like raveled lace.
Oscar Wilde in Our Continent.
RELIGIO US TOLERA TIOX A T
WABSA W.
Rev. J. X.
Stallings, Editor
Brief Men-
tion.
We see that some writers in some
of the religious papers of the State
are criticising quite sharply the Star
for the article it wrote upon the in
stallation of Northrop, a Romish
prelate, to be Bishop of North Care
Una. We read the article with a
great deal of interest. And, except
the references to the Romish oli
garchy and her officials by the names
which she and they arrogate to them
selves, which weunderstooil to be
entirely conventional and prompted
by politeness, we saw nothing at all
objectionable.
The article has been sharply criti
cised because the editor commanded
the learning and eloquence of Messrs.
Gibbons and Keane and their manner
of delivering their addresses. Now,
every one who read the article must
know that the Star was right upon
that point. There can be no true
eloquence with manuscript before the
speaker. It is really strange that
one cannot give an opinion upon a
point of that kind without being ar
raigned as favoring the monstrosities
of the dreadful Beast, as Rome con
fessedly is.
Again, the opinion that these men
proclaimed the gospel is more severe
ly condemned, and the editor of the
Star arraigned as ignorant, and as a
new convert to Romanism. We
certainly did not so understand
him. Some of the Romish doc
trines are 'eminently sound. No
loubt the speakers selected such
portions as all evangelical Protest
ants belie ve,and Mr. Kingsbury, who
is a-Baptist, and Mr. Bernard, who
is an Episcopalian, could well say
they preached the pure gospel, with
out in any sense indorsing the Hein
ous doctrines and practices of the
Man of Sin. We did not understand
our contemporary to commend Ro
manism at all, but in giving an ac
count of a passing occurrence to in
dorse what it thought true in manner
and matter. Surely a jonrnahst may
commend anything he sees deserv
ing, if it does come from those with
whom he wholly ditfei's
m
other things, without being
iected to such sharp criticism.
take it that our contemporary is
as
strongly opposed to the Romish sys
tem as its critics or the writer of this
article. We write this not
to defend the Star, which is amply
able to defend itself ; but to express
our own views. We believe in a just,
broad and liberal spirit in dealing
with all questions especially those
of religions kind. It is simply ri
diculous to hold out the idea that
Romanism can ever predominate in
this country. Protestantism, by
which we mean all evangelical reli
gious creeds opposed to Romanism,
increases more than ten times more
rapidly than Romanism.

The Louisiana Supreme Court
has rendered a decision that all the work of
the New Orleans criminal conrt since the
new constitution was adopted in 1879, in
cluding the convictions of some murderers

the law requires all cases to be allotted be
tween the two judges by hazard, while
nothing of the kind has been done.
Mr. P. LV Etue, Kansas City; Mo. , one
of the proprietors of the Commercial Indica
tor, says he knows the St. Jacobs Oil to be
a most valuable remedy for rheumatism.
Last winter Mr. Etue says he had this dis
ease in his left shoulder. The pain was ex
cessive at times, and so severe while attacks
lasted as to cause a strong desire ta have it
speedily eradicated. After vainly resorting
to several remedies for relief, without suc
cess, he at last hit upon the Great German
Remedy. He experienced decided and im
mediate relief from its use, and was en
tirely cured with the fourth application.
Since thea he has entertained a very high
respect for the curative powers of the Oil.
This respect it not at all lessened by its;
happy action in the case of his wife, who
subsequently suffered with inflammatory
rheumatism. She contracted the disease
while visiting i Colorado. Upon arriving
home the St. Jacobs Oil was used,4n ,CD
junrtfcnrwith prescriptions for Internal adr
ministration. and materially aided in her
restoration to health.
