The more popular branch of our State Legisla-
ture were on the eve of effecting an organization
| on Saturday, when the sitting was broken up and
| the choice of Speaker defeated by the running
| away of most of the democratic" and part Of
| the American" Members, leaving the House
without quorum and compelling it to adjourn.
We have been earnestly desirous that Democratic
Speaker should be chOsen-if with an American
Clerk, by arrangement so much the better. If the
fight of Saturday shall lead to such all Organiza-
ton to-day, we shall rejoice over the result, but
we must not the less condemn the means by which
it will have been secured. We regard the triumph
of this or that party in the organization of very
slight consequence but we prefer that our political
adversaries should succeed because we believe they
Won their late triumph most fOully, by raising
clamOr against increased taxation which was not
merely inevitable but fully known by them to be
so. We desire, then, that they should organize
the House and its leading Committees, and so indi-
cate precisely what their policy is with regard to
Canal Expenditure and Taxation; and if at any
time the choice of a Democratic Speaker can be
secured by one or two Republicans happening to
be absent when vote is taken, we trust such alb
sence will occur, and We shall support and com
mend those through whose fundamentally it is
effected.
But this does not modify the fact that the conduct
of the runaways on Saturday was shabby, paltry,
indefensible They had for days been pretending
anxiety that the Assembly should organize and
proceed with its abors They had endeavored
somehow to cast the blame of non.eection on the
Republicans, who not only are clear plurality of
the whole body, and have cast plurality OF votes
OH nearly every ballot, 'but have repeatedly pro-
posed and urged an agreement that plurality shall
elect. And now when, after three weeks abortive
efforts, choice is about TO be made, the Democracy
desert their seats and disOrganze the House on
purpose to prevent it Is not this despicable?
We urge upon the Federal House, and on every
Legislative body which elects Its own presiding
officer, the property of enacting Standing Rule
whereby plurality shall suffice to elect such pre-
siding officer after three five, or seven ballots
Then if the two smaller parties can agree to
coalesce, they may carry the organization over the
head of the larger if not they will lose it, as they
should. Why should House waste several weeks
in blind nsapacity to accomplish anything, when to
this complexion it must come at last Let us have
done with foOlng, and enact rules that must pre-
clude il in future.

The accepted mode of selecting Chaplains for
the Army and Navy of the United States is
strikingy at variance with the spirit of our Fed
eral and State Constitutions. These affirm that
the cure Of souls is matter Of strictly individual
and not of public concern-that every adult ra-
tional being should be left free to select his own
creed and his own expOunder of that creed-and
that Government should c0n6ne itself to temporal
concerns, including the securing to each individual
of his natural GOdgyen rights, leaving his spiritual
and eternal well-being TO the guidance of his own
Judgment and conscience. In the Army and Navy all
this is reversed A Chaplain is appointed to YES
sci or regiment without even pretense of con-
sulting the wishes or humorng the religious con-
yictons of those to whom he is TO minister
they NAV be mainly Roman Catholics, while he is
roaring denouncer of Popery-perhaps Unitarian
or Uniyersalist, whose clerical inculcations must
be markedly abominsbL in the eyes of the great
body of his flock. 1t may thus be matter Of
conscience with the crew regiment Lot to attend
nor countenance the ministrations of him whom
the Government has appointed their spiritual guide.
OF course his services are worse than useless and
his salary sheer robbery of the Treasury.
The Examiner, an able Baptist organ in our city,
affrms that there is pretty general understanding
among the officers mot the seamen) Of our Navy,
to coerce the use of the Protestant Episcopal Lit
urgy BY the Chapains, no matter OF what denOmi-
nation. We learn that Of the twenty -four Chap
laus in our Navy, eleven are EPiscOpslians, while
Of the thirteen appointed from among all other de-
nominations comprising at least nne-tenths of the
American People, all but t'rO have been dragoOned
into the use OF the Episcopal Liturgy.

Church Establishment in this free lard. The Rev.
Joseph Stockbridge (Baptist), Chaplain OF SIX
teen years standing was ordered to and joined The
Savannah, in the Rio de Ia Plata, In reord''!'
1854. Before commencing his first Sabbath ser.
vice. he was requested BY both the Captain ana
the Commodore to use the Episcopal Liturgy, winch
he declined to do. The next Sunday brought
like request. with an intimation that he might DC
Superseded if he refused compliance. he d'd re-
fuse, nevertheless and this refusal was the sigua,
for the commencement Of systematic ve1ation anu
ANNOYANCE. He was first notified by the firs'
Lieutenant that singing, as part OF divine ser'c''
would, BY the Captains order, be dispensed Win;
next, his Sunday school was peted with orange
peel and other light missiles until it was broken
up: then he found himself excluded from social
intercourse and the usual manifestations OF hospi-
tality BY the higher officers; at length tmbler OF
water was thrown at him, while at dinner, by
Junior officer of marines, whose arm was arrested
by superior officer as be attempted to throw an
other tumbler; and all the punishment visited on
the offender was formal reprimand. On appeal
to the (late) Secretary of the Navy, this answer
was returned:
"From examining all the papers, do not think that
Lieut.. b intended to strike, but merely TO insult
or GRITTY, by throwing water at the chaplain.
Go not consider the worthy of the dignity OF
Court Martial"
If junior lieutenant could be guilty of q more
ungentlemsnly or unOfficer like act than that of
throwing tumbler with intent merely to insult
or mortify the chaplain of his ship, who is neces
sarily con combatant, we cannot guess what that
act could be- Had be thrown the lumber at the
CcmmoJore's lady, and tried to follow it up BY
throwing another, would he have been let off so
EASILY!
We need not pursue the narrative. The Chap
ains dignity of position his influence, and his oP-
portunities for usefulness, were completely broken
down, because he did not SEQ fit to use the liturgy
of another church than that of which he was
member.
In our Judgment, if the Federal Government
would dismiss its Army and Navy Chsplans, re-
solving never to employ any more, except by fair
and open vote of the crew or regiment which is to
be profited by the services of such Chaplain, it's
own consistency would be indicated and the cause
of religion decidedly pro6ted.

The trade or profession of Fugitive from
Slavery has proved SO lucrative, that quite num-
Der of black and copper-colored scOundrels are
prosecuting it on speculation, some of them 1--WE
think in partnership with white Villains who cor
roborate their lies and share their gains. We very
often receive letters narrating the arrival in this or
that Northern neighborhood of an alleged fugitive,
who tells long and startling yarns about his escape
from bondage in some heroic or wonderful way,
his arrival in this City, what was said to and done
for him here by so and so, &c.-much Of which
we happen to know to be utterly false. One of
these black yagabonds has pretended in various
places TO have been the slave Of the Hon. John b.
Thompson, L. S. Senator from Kentucky, and has
sometimes added that he was left-hand son or
nephew Of that Senator.
We beg all people, without exception, to under
stand that whoever processes to be fugitive from
Slavery, and to have been helped or ceunseled on
his way BY any Editor of THE TRIBUNE, yet shows
no written Recommendation or certificate from tina
Editor, is an impOstor and villain. And whenever
one comes along who pretends to have been helped
through this City as fugitive, just ask him t.
show the documents. If he cannot, set him down
as swindler, and you will scarcely ever be wrong
Note also that the real fugtives always seek coun
sci and sympathy from men of their own race
while the bogus are sure to give them as wide a
berth as possible.

In referring, the other day, to the new proceed
