From the Ne,v Y0rk Times.

Public DJouhers- Public Lands. We
believe there are siXty-seven public land
districts and the same number Of officers
appointed, called RECEIVERS, whose duty
ii is to sell the land and receive the money.
The Congressional Committee report
(page 143) SIXTY THREE of these officers
as DEFAULTERs, with their names, dates,
and sums; many ofvhich sums are from
S200,OOO to 100000 All of these were
out of office so long ago as October, 1887.
They also report a list Of NINE RECEIVERS
whose defaults have been ascer,ained since
that date; portion Of these also are for
large amounts.
Here are seventv-tw0 of this class OF
officers who have pIundered the public of
more than million of dollars.
1T should be noted that the lis, was taken
from MIR. wooDBuRY's reports. The Com
mltlee had neither time nor means to enter
the dark recesses ofany of the uNREPoRTED
Receivers.
We hope the first act Of the next Congress
vii be the creation of Committee or Com
mitlees, to enter personally on the examin-
alton of every one of these "mints of pri-
vaie coinage"
We fear the Indian Department will be
even more rotten than that of the public
lands
The Committee seems to conclude that the
Government RETAlNERs weat INTO office,
known To be gross delinquents, for the ben.
eft of their active, INSCRIPTIONS partisan
services ..
Will the Committee inform US in theil
next report whether those men were no
originally appointed entirely on this princi
pie?

TRU E CHI A RIT Y.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity,
these three; but, the greatest Of these is
charity Such was the sentiment Of Paul,
a man whose deep and ardent devotion, and
active piety and seif-denial were never
equaled and whose knowledge of the hu-
man heart, has scarcely yet found paral-
lei. How truly saith he, the greatest OF
these is charity Our faith and hope are
for ourselves, and we chiefly enjoy their
pursuits, nor shall we by the exercise oil
them lose any other good, But charity re-
quires sef-denial-her persuasive voice
calls upon us to resign the treasures we
have been so long and so carefully hoard
ing, for the benefit of the needy. She bids
us, by giving our time, and laboring with
our hands, emulate the example of our
Heavenly Pattern, Like Him, who passed
by the eminently cody in the worlds es'
TEEN, and sat down with publcans and
Sinners we too, should extend our bene-
factions to the most abject and degraded.
The generosity that requires no self de.
NAL is not true charity. How easy it is fol
those whom God hath blessed with abun-
dance, to give large donations for benevo-
lent purposes. But is it not too often the
case, tina, they resign their treasure merel!
to purchase fame! And what benevolence
is there in this, more than in any other tral:
fc? ......#
True charity and self-denial are inseper
able. Look, for instance, at the case o
the poor woman mentioned IN the Gospel
she gave all she had-consequently sh'
was subjected to the privations of want
