RICHMOND, DEC. 14,1869. Pay of School Trustees. Ia last Saturday's lird, w notice quite a lengthy communication from Messrs. Samson and Taran, former members of the old Board, in regard to the payment of $600 for services rendered by Mr. Hadley as one of the Board and also as Treasurer'" As we heretofore expressed an opinion that the price paid Mr. II. was little enough in comparison to the services rendered, we feel it our privilege to notice ono point roado in the oooimuDicaUoa alluded to. It will be recollected that the Superintendent, whom they say bargained to do a jrreat portion of the work that Mr. II. was paid for Iomg, was being paid at the rate or -ine Jiouars a lay, when the price paid Mr. II. fir same labor, in- j eluding compensation, for Treasurer's service, was ) net quite two dollars per oar I aKing me compennation on the per diem scale the latter is much cheaper than the former. . We also notice an array of exfrae's of letters from (Vfterent places, bearing upon the compensation of School Trustees, is published; all differing in amount. This lack of uniformity in paring fur similar services, only goes to show a difference in the judgment of those who affix the price; henee the argument is not a good oieai against the case l.erj. If the allowance beie depends .on the practice of other places, we suggest that our City authorities take New Albany as a fairer sample than those cited by Messrs. S. and Y, A letter from one of the School Board of that city, which is now before us, states that the "Board of Trustees re ceive jointly one thousand dollars, which sum is divided among the Trustees in proportion to the an ount of services rendered." Congress Wm. A. Bickxk "It is rumored tkat William A. liickle, Esq., will compete with Judge Re id for the Democratic cotnlnation for Congress, iu litis district." We clip the above from our cotemporary of the 'Telegram,' and we observe that -quite a number of our district exchanges chime in and echo the rumor, We are authorized to say that Mr. Etckle, will not be in the line of competition with Judge, Reid or "any . other man" for tbo Congressional race. Such rumors are calculated to do Mr. B. great injury, from the fact that many persons are ready to ascribe Wm earnest efforts in religious and moral reforms, i that he has been engaged in for some time past, to a premeditated design to ; thus advance bis political interests, and, j at once charge bim , with having no heart in the good work with acting the hypocrite, and we rejoice that he has determined by thus promptly declining the proposed honor, to place it entirely out of the.' power of any one to destroy his potent; efforts for usefulness in the commendable course he has chosen." Richmond Uhion Relief Association. Again tho annual Festival of this truly benevolent society, was held in the Trustee's room in the Library Building, n Tuesday night last, and, together with those who are actively engaged in the worfc, and the representatives of the press, all feasted on the bountiful repast, contributed for the occasion by the members of the association. After feasting on the good things, the company passed tho even log in social conversation, and all present seemed to say; by the pleasure that , beamed from each countenance, that -it was good to ; be there.1 Tho members of the Union Relief Association wish to return thanks for the following donations received during the last four months, for the support of the Childrens' Home. ; ; rf J.

From the following extract from a Liberty correspondence of one of tho Connersvillepapera, it will be seen that Judge Kibbt, has boldly taken : grounds in favor of using the Bible in Common Schools, and icdulges in a suggestion that our City Council no doubt will promptly act up-1 on. f "The Coarl ' of Common PIoa -has just adjourned. While the court was in eesoion, and during a Donkey trial, an amusing incident happened. Gen. Bennett, one of the counsel, quoted Scripture very erroneously. lie said it was Abraham who had used - the rods, and made the progeny ring streaked and striped. A Biblical student corrected him, by saying it was Jacob, the Gen. contending to the last it was Abraham. Judge Kibbt had, until now, been opposed to the introduction of the Scriptures into-our' common schools,- but when he saw such ignorance of Biblical facts in a prominent member of the bar, and in a city Mayor, he said it was time every schoolhou8e door should be opened to the Introduction of the Bible.and that the council of the city of Richmond should Tote one to their Mayor."

FROM WASHINGTON. 1 o Wasuixutos.'D. C, Dec. 9ih, 1869. , The meet:ng of Congress on Monday notwithstanding the' inclemency of tho weather, Vas attended with more than the usual inter, ests. Unlike the assembling of Congress any time for the last four years, all parties seem to meet upon friendly terms with the idea that the great bone of contention had disappeared with the disappearance of 'His Accidency' at the other end of the Aveauo, and ihe great r work before them was a work o f common interest to all irrespective of party. Everything went off liko clockwork, and when the ' President was notified that the people's Reprecntatives were ready for any communication he had to offer them, ha. Grant-like with dispatch, sent in his multum in fabvo message, accotopanfed rwith ,tbe " report of each W his Cabinet, the excellency of which, Mr. Editor, you, with your quick perception and ready judgement can expatiate on far better than your -humblo correspondent.

The State Christian Convention met at Terre Haute, last week, and wa3 well attended. Below wo ; give the address Of C. F. Coffin, of this cityf J What can a Business Man do fir Christ ! Anvthing that any other servant of the Lord can

do ! lie can preach, pray, sing or perform any other .1 service lor wnicn te spirit ot the lord gires luiu alilitr. "Wist ye not that I mnst be about my Father's business?" Our Saviour tbs set us an example of earnestness and application to the duties of life. "Not slothful in business," says the.. great Apostle, thus enforcing the- lesson of -industry and diliigence, if with it is joined "serving- the t.otd." Are the tsro consonent 1 Can a man be a thorough, energetic business man and at the same time a servant of t be Lord ? Mo3t certainly 1 The tima is past when it is considered necessary to withdraw from the world in order to be a servant of Christ. "I pray not th it tbou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou sbouldst keep them from the evil." Business, while it is pursued with energy and earnestness, must be subordinate to our Christian duties, or rather must be pursued in connection with them. "Seek Ant the Kingdom of God." We have many examples at the present time of the most prosperous and successful business men, who are the most efficient and earnest workers in the cause of Christ. One of the greatest evangelists of modern tidies, was a prosperous and successful merchant, and when not engaged in "preaching the Gospel," applied the power ol his mind and the cnenrr of his character to the sale of goods. No man can do anything for Christ until he becomes a servant of Christ. Uepentance towards God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Chrht, followed by a sense of forgiveness ol sins and uuion with Christ, are the first requisites to work for him. He who baa known his ov7n sins blotted out by tho blood of Jesus is immediately led to desire the salvation of others, and is in good condition to labor for it ; and will soon find means to accomplish the deaire of his heart. . The first e fleet of -such a change on a '"business" man, will be to learn him to "do justly." Honesty will characterize all his dealings Iruthfulnessvi all his statements. . A just weight, a just measure, and a just baliance will be used, lie will do unto others as he woull h'tve them do unto him. He will bring his Christianity t bear in his every-day transactions, and will sIid.v by his conduct to all with whom he baa dealings, whose servant he is. Iu this day when so rnany "tricks in trade" are resorted to, when so m&uy transactions which will not bear a rigid scrutiny occur ; and when the motto of so many is "let every one take care of himself," how bright is the example of that business mau who rules his transactions by a Christian standaid ? How much be is "doing for Christ V Can busiuess be profitably and safely con J ucted ou Christian principles? He must have little faith in the Lord Jesus Christ who believes tjat it cannot. Hew much of the failures and Kiisfor tunes of business men can be tiuceJ to a lack of the proper standard in their transactions. Not that all good men will prosper in business. Business taleuia and qualiiicptions ara ceential to success ; but they, need to be consecrated to Christ, and governed by Hjs law. . - " . ' The question was once aslted of the writer, while visiting 'on change' in Chicago : ' Can a man be a Christian and mingle in this whirlpool ?" The reply was "Yes, but he needs much fixedness ot principle and firmness of purpose, and uutck prayer." .Because because sometimes the wicked "Sourish like a green bay tree, it does not prove that godliness is not profitable for alt tkingi. ' ' I present uo mere theory. Ac live service in business life from childhood, an experience of all the trials and cares of such life, and a large acquaintance with those engaged in it, have lead me to kuow tbat even manif this woilJ honor a servant of the Lord; that honesty is ot onJy the best policy, but that a thorough conformity to the law of Christ, is thu greatest safeguard which a business man can have, and that such an one "does much for Christ." In addition to daily living a Christian life and example, the business man nay often speak a word for the Jij.Tiaux to those with whom he is thrown in contact, hoS9 who are in his employ ,and others with whom he may iucidently meet. This maybedone unobtrusively and without offense, and with the exercise of proper judgment and discretion. Too many professed Christians live in constant contact with those who are far from Christ, wiihout once speaking to them of their spiritual condition. In the midst of the cares and duties of business life it ia not to be expected that such subjects will be introduced on all occasions, but there are times when it will be peculiarly appropriate to do eo. and when it will meet with a ready response. A simple word or saggeslion thus thrown ' out has oiten done more to cause reflection than tue best sermon. The bu siness man may do much for Christ with his means. This is a point of which I need not speak much as it is generally understood. Most business men are liberal, and far too many are disposed thus to compromise the matter and excuse themselves frona personal service and work by proxy, leaving religious matters to their ministers or to those especially engaged in Christian work. All business men should "remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." Of all clases, this rest and change of thought and employment, is to them most essential. It not only prolongs their lives but gives them greater power for its duties. As a mere worldly measure it is expedient, as a duty to God it is all important. " All business should be laid aside, and ' the thought 'of it banished . as nearly as possible front the mind. This can Only be done by entering upon other duties, the attendance of publij worship, the Sabbnth school, and other labors appropriate to the day. This total change of thought will be lound highly beneficial, and the business man returns t his daily round of duties refreshed and reinigOrated. ; His habits especially adopt him for Sabbath school worfc, either as Superintendent, teacher or in any other capacity. In all our larger cities the most successful Sabbath schools are those conducted by business men. There are also public institutions Prisons, Hospitals, Asylums, Homes, etc., which may be profitably and systematically visited by business men. Private labor with the inmates tery,the distribution of tracts, prayer, and publically speaking of the love of Christ, n ay all be appropriately done by them. In many places very efficient service in tho way of street preaohing has been done by business men. All may not be called to work in the same channel, but the heart full of gratitude to God will expand to others around, and some means will be found adapted to the individual, and to those amongst nhom he is called to labor. Not only on the Sabbath, but at the weekly or daily prayer meetings the business man should often be present, that by his person aud his voice, he may show on whose siie he is engaged. I ersonal visitation to the poor, sick and afflicted, and cottage prayer meetings, will be found creatly to strengthen the "faith and develop the Christian character of the business man. Ihera is no more touching and beautiful sight than to see strong-minded, earnest business men, bowed in prsyer in the cottages of the poor. , , , ' : , ' ' , At first, in any of these labor3, a senso of awkwardness will be felt and often some humiliation. Hut when we remember that it is the eteraal welfare of our fellow men that is aouaht, and the lore of Christ which constrains us, all such feelings will soon vanish; ability for the work will increnso, and an . indescribable pleasure be aflbided to those who are engaged in it. The. power for such work must be gained by closet prayer and daily communion with Family duties must not bo omitted.. The business man's home should have a family altar, from which prayer should be daily offered. The children should be trained for Christ. The father can do much at this, and tbe whole-care and responsibili ty should not be thrown upon the mother. A loving household should surround him to sustain in the cares and responsibilities of a business life, and it can only be mad so by beirg a Christian household. - Business men are the best managers of public institutions and of Charities. They may do much for Christ iu this way,btt should not Substitute for such labor personal services in the cause of Christ, it maybe said tbat time cannot be found for all these things. Perhaps it cannot, but for some at least it ran, and each one will soon find bis appropriate sphere of labor and be enabled to fill it, and none are so much occupied but they may find time for all their private and fatrUy duties and for some of the more public ones. - ' '" Dr. Cuakles E. Stukuis. We l'ecrretto hear of the death of this excellent man, which occurred at Fort Wayne, last week.

K6W YORK. V Of the slate of New York, "not tuueff i seen on the way to the great metrop olis ot our land. land. This lies upon an ial - if ter a wearisome journet- on and, and a t.ae car3, a snort sail over the river which separates New York from -the main land ia very enjoyable. And as to - the - masses of . men who are transportel over the around-the-city-flowing river all day long by the ferrj'-boats, either going or returning, thou can'st scarcely form an idea dear reader. 100,000 men who have their business or labor in the city, must come to the city every day and desert it again in the evening. At the depot, on the boat, in the street-cars, run and throng the people, as though something great was impending, whereby the whole population might be set in an uproar. So soon as the boat touches the landing, men begin to spring on, and when it is from three to six feet distant ; then the stranger thinks 'Why, that is dangerous !' But in a few days ho gets the hurry-fever too, climbs ten minutes in advance over the chains, stands in the crowd, ready for the spring, and waits in impatience at the slow lessening of the dangerous abyss. To judge by the running and jamming, something must be wrong,but no, it is the usual, the every day life of the great city. It is often said, that in rainy weather an omnibus is never full, but in New York that is not a true sajing. After eighty or ninety have pressed in, or climbed on, it begins to be unpleasantly full, one wishes himself on the pavement again, if it were only possible to get out. On Broadway everything goes pell mell. Omnibus on omnibus, wagons, coaches, drays it cannot bo told with pen and Ink, hmv full, how bus', how hurried it is in tvery street, in every corner of.liie great metropolis. New York is badly laid out The streets riiu according to no geometrical ruleJ In the old tirnes.il waa a desert neighborhood where from time to time a few countrymen ami sailors settled.; When the. cows of evenings" cams borne frora their pasturage, anil in tti morning, with hnugry maws, sought out the fat meadows agair, they made., footpa' hs through tiie bushes, mid ori these lootpaths men afierwards built hoaxes. Of the aesthetic tastes, and prophetic future of the present New York, tho tows had uo inIorn:stion, , and should the poor beast be blamed now for : the crooked streets? The stranger, however, suffers thereby. For the Palladium. Dublin, Dbc. 0, lbt9. Thinking that the readers of the Palladium would like to hear from our live ..village, I sharpen my. pencil t?-give, them a few items. : Our popular school under the' superintendency of Prof. 'John; Cooper, is In full blast with over three hundred stu dents, making their usuil strides up the hill of science. The religious mind of Dublin is being stirred, just now, by a series of lectures, by one Rev. Mr. Snook, on what, is usually termed 'Soul Sleeping.' In justice to that Divine, I must state that he does not own the name of soul sleeper, but failing to learn any other cognomen . for his comparatively new doctrines, even after hearing four of his lectures, I can call him nothing more fitting than the name above. " Mr. Snook is a man of fair talent, and some education.: To my mind he has just about enough capacity to disturb the ' religious world without contributing to its welfare. The prospect is now fair for a lively winter. The Jos. Goodenough Troupe of Thespians played to a full house on last Saturday night, at the Wickersham Hall. We are also to5 have a series of lectures, commencing with Henry Vincent. ; But the best of ail the new features of interesting entertainments in our town, is a reading circle now in successful operation. The exercises consist in select readings, declamations, questions, criticism, social discussions and essays. All are invited who are willing to contribute to the interests of the society. ' . ..
