The deer, bares and pheas? ants are dying by hundred g near Bath, Eng? land, and post mortem examinations develop th? fact that tte livers ol the dead hares are full of worms, and that the deaths of tin pheasant*, too, are owing to the presenoe of parasite ? in their bodies. "It Ls a shame for women to speak In the church," said that incorrigible old b&ohelor, St. Paul. The Presbyterians have always lite? rally accepted St. Paul's Ipso dlxlt, and to-day are pretty'nearly unanimous In regard to the impropriety of women taking a leading part In church matters. They stand now exactly where they did moro than thirty yean ago, as in 18*1 the general synod drafted a letter to pastan. In which occurred the following: "We witton witt pain In some parta of the Chris? tian Church tte introduction of females to lead tba devotion of a promiscuous assembly, a practice wnloh we believe to be not only contrary to the word or God, bot ruinons tb tte benign and permanent influence of pious fetaales in the Church ot Christ." -The Boston Glob 3 says: "We say to the self-constituted solicitors of charity for Bos? ton, ?hat thwy hara gmo!y misrepresented the public sentiment of tte olty; and If they doubt, lt let them ask their neighbors, or the Ant man they meet upon the street. Boston bas no such grovelling disposition to shift her bofdens upon the shoulden of other commu? nities, and she ls not content to rest under so false an imputation. The pnss and the pub llo abroad should understand that tbe com? mittee's action is not and will not be sustain? ed by tte publio sentiment here, and that it will be repudiated by tte almoat unanimous voice of our citizens. The help which Bos? ton needs ls tte good will, forbearance, en? couragement and generous patronage of those who sympathize witt her In her great calami? ty, and not pecuniary aid In relieving her destitute." -Mrs. Victoria Woodhall addresses a letter to a New York paper from the Ludlow street Jail, In Which she complains bitterly or her martyrdom, and attributes lt to her sex, but consoles bereeli with tte tact that all great re formen had the same ordeal to go through, Among whom she Irreverently cites Christ and bis apostles and disciples, Galllleo, Luther, Calvin, Pox, Harvey, Ann Lee, Murray, Doug l*s?, Garrison and Phillips. She asserts that her persecution arises from tbe determination of man to; domineer over woman, and pre? vent ber from supporting heneif independent cf him. Bhe.clalms that her ashes, If she Is Persecutedt0 d?*&. will be the seed o? mar tydom from which a thousand Victorias will .pring (ona ls enongh for one generation, j only think of a ttiotisand Woodhulls !) t J ex pose the Impurities of this pious generation. -A celebration of the third centennial of Presbyterianism took place In Philadelphia In conformity with a recommendation to that effect of the General Assembly ot the North? ern Presbyterian Ohnrcb, which met In Detroit last May. The centennial thus celebrated is understood to be that ot the English organiza? tion, the Presbyterians claiming that the re? formed churches on the continent have sub? stantially the same ecclesiastical system as their own, differing only In minor details, and also that their own form of church govern? ment was tho primitivo form. The Presbyte? rian Church of Scotland had Its remote origin In the first introduction of the principies of the relormatlon Into that country about 1627. The establishment ot Presbyterianism in Soot land was ratified by an act of Parliament in 1690. The Presbyterian Church In the United States ls considered a daughter of the Church of Scotland. Presbyterians began to emigrate from Scotland and the north ol Ireland to the American colonies as early as 1689. The Pres? byterian denomination bas embraced some of the leading minds In the United States as well as Scotland. The Conaervatrve Phalanx. The Conservative members of the State Legislature are few in nomber. They are strong, however, in theinlntegrity of char, acter, in their Intelligence and cuitare, and ia the consciousness that they are the imme? diate representatives and spokesmen of those who bear the bulk of the public bur? dens. This should both spur them on and hold them back. It should en courage them to sleepless vigilance, while restraining them from factions opposition to any mea? sure of intrinsic merit. Their very numeri? cal weakness will lead them to reject the promptings of prejudice and passion, and cause them to stand solidly together In de? fence ot public right and personal privilege. The Conservatives have confidence in them, and they can, by their wise and liberal con? duct, compel the respect of their opponents, and secure, intime, the support of the whole people. The Conservative members will doubtless consider well the g?n?ral policy which they should pararte. It is evident that neither they nor their con st i toe nts can afford to make any contest in the legislative halls solely apon grounds of race or of party. Hard experience teaches the minority that, ; if they would accomplish practical reform, they most place themselves in the position of being the advocates of the right, and the foes of the wrong, at all limes and upon all occasions. They must cause the Radicals, as well as the Conservatives, to regard them as a band of upright men who are striving ; to purify the government and lessen taxa? tion, in the interest, not of any class, bat of the entire State. The better members of tbe Radical majority will then tarn to them for co-operation and aid. Whenever one Radical wing is opposed to the other, the Cons?rvate vote will have a considerable weight. Many of the Radicals are poorly instructed. They are ignorant of the simp? lest laws of political economy, and too often strive to accomplish by crude legislation what can only be obtained by personal labor and letting things alone. Their errors are frequently due more to inexperience than to viciousness. The shrewder Radical mem .bers who know more,- are less honest, and And it advantageous to keep their dupes in the dark. This gives the Conservatives a broad field of usefulness. Tbey can ex? poned and explain such measures as may come before the General Assembly, showing why these are likely to be beneficial or inju? rious to the people. And when a robbing scheme is proposed-when bribery stalks abroad-they can, by manly denunciation, and by appeals to the higher impulses of some members of the majority, wield an in? fluence wbich will make a repetition of the huge swindles of the past next to im? possible. Tbe Conservatives have at their back nearly the whole press of toe State. With this, and the assurance that they stand before the country as the champions of equal laws, equal rights and an honest ad? ministration of public a fla i re, they cannot fail to exercise a salutary control over the coarse of legislation. Their power will be in proportion* to the breadth and liberality of their opinions and the in flexible parity of their conduct, lt is hardly too much to say that the Conservatives can make or mar the fortunes of the people. THE NEWS is not a visionary sheet, and does not expect impossibilities, but it has faith in the staunchness, the common sense and the vigor of the Conservative members, and believes firmly that these qualities will enable them to do a vast amount of good, and prepare the way for the coming of the new era when every man who cheats the public shall, instead of being praised for his smartness, be hunted down and condemned as the enemy of every honest citizen. rna Wheels ot misfortune. Tiie State Constitution expressly prohib? its "lotteries, and the sale of lottery tickets "lor any parp?se;" yet there are in Charles? ton two lottery concerns in fall blast. They have charters from the State Legislature giving them "all the rights of corporations "known as banks," and they have the right to dispose of their real and personal estate "in any manner and on such condi? tions" as they "may see fit and proper." For these extensive privileges the compa? nies pay an annaal tax, wbich probably does not amount to the clear gains of one day's whirring of the wheel. It is not hard to see that the two lottery concerns are doing Charleston serious harm. Their principal customers are col? ored men and boys, who stake their halves and quarters, morning after morning, in the vain expectation of receiving back ten, twenty or a hundred times what they pat down. Now and then the purchaser of a i combination does make a lucky hit, but hundreds lose for every one that wins. The chances are overwhelmingly in favor of the dealers; the profits of faro are insignificant in comparison with the profits of a well managed lottery. Unfortunately the col? ored people have a strong natural liking for gambling. They crave excitement, and hope on until the last dime is gone. Their earnings are swept away in a few mo? ments, ano! lt is not strange ir, in many in? stances, the losers are tempted to tap tills and rob hen-roosts to provide the means for fresh ventures. And whites as .well as blacks lall victims. There is no telling how many of the petty robberies which give em? ployment to the courts are due to buying lottery tickets. The concerna, moreover, are owned in the North, and what they squeeze from the rash speculator fl ila quickly oat of tbe State. There is no doubt that the lotteries in question discourage babita of industry and foster and ec cou rage crime. It seems clear that the two companies have not authority to do what the State Con? stitution expressly forbids-"tbe Bale of lot "tery;tlcketB"-but, whether or no, the Legis? lature can soon cut the knot A majority of | the members of the General Assembly are oolored men, and tbey can shat ap the lot? teries with the certainty that they are cor? recting a glaring abuse, and saving the poor and ignorant from falling a prey to one of the most one-Bided schemes of the day. The laboring man must have fair play, and be taught besides that he mast depend on his own exertions for making a living and climbing the social ladder. But thousands go wrong and fall by the wayside, when the lottery concerns hold out to them the possi? bility of growing rich in a night. Hunting for a needle in a hay-stack is a lucrative occupation aa compared with hunting for a prize combination in a lottery wheel. I boa sands do not see it; each expects to be tbe favored of fortnne. Let the Legislature step in aad protect them against themselves. State Conventions and Legislatures. The question as to the powers of a legisla- j ture to limit or restrict tbe powers of a State constitutional convention has again been de? cided by the Pennsylvania State Convention, now in session, by a vote in the negative of one hundred and six to eighteen. A State constitutional convention is the most direct and highest power known in a State, and Its powers and duties are entirely dissimilar to tbose of the L?gislature. It ls tbe consti? tuted will of the people for the purpose of I forming the organic law of the State. While [ on the other hand the Legislature bas only the power to codify and make laws in accord? ance with such a constitution as ls framed by the constitutional convention. It ls true that | legislatures are the only legal means by which constitutional conventions are called, but j wben called lt Is the creation* of the people, holding their highest delegated powers, and entirely Independent of any legislative re? strictions. flrjotograprjB, Portraits, #c. s.
