MORNING IRADER.
The Howard mission of New York.

Lhe Howard Mission Of New York.
Many Of our readers are personally ao-
quainted with Rev. W. C. Van Meter, Of
New Ecrk, who las become well known
for his efforts in behalf Of homeless little
ones, gathered from the scum Of that great
city. BE has many times passed through
this place on his way to different portions
Of the West, with company Of boys and
girls, for whom he was seeking Christian
homes, and has always excited a great deal
ofsympathy and interest Mr. Van Meter
has been the victim Of a prosecution for
kidnapping in New York City, the object
of the complainants being to break up the
Howard Mission, with all its attendant
good None but men thoroughly degraded
could do aught to disturb the good Offices
Of the benevolent institutions for the edu-
cation and consequent elevation Of the poor
children Of New York, thus rescued from
ignorance and crime. The friends of such
benevolent enterprises will be glad to
learn that the effort has failed, the Grand
Jury refusing to find any bill.
The Anniversary of the Howard Mission
and Home for Little Wanderers was held
last Friday evening at the Academy Of
Music. The immense building was dense
ly crammed by the audience, which num-
bered thousands The balance Of re-
ceipts over expenditures during the
past year was s2,O62 81, beside large
donations of clothing, provisions, &c
During the year ], ,224 children have been
received, washed, fed, clothed and taught.
These represented 734 families, consisting
Of4037 persons. A very interesting pro-
gramme of exercises was gone through
with at the Academy, and a repetition was
to be given for the benefit Of the many
who we're unable to attend at that time.
The New York Tribune says Of the Mis-
sion, and of the effort to close it up:
&" The friends of the Rev. W. C. Van Me-
ter and Of the poor children of the How /
ard Mission, and all the other charitable .
institutions in the city viii be rejoiced to ,
learn that the charges for some time pend !
ing against Mr.. Van Meter have been
brought to an end by the Grand Jury, who /
have seen proper to throw the case out, |
after fair and csreful investigation of sH 4
the facts The counsel for the plaintifsfn 4
the prosecution Of Mr. Van Meter hoped to !
obtain an Indictment for kidnapping /
against hin, to have the case brought into
the Court Of General Sessions. where, upon
a conviction, it was expected that he would /
be sent to the State Prison for the full ex-
tent Of the penalty for that offense. In
this way it was boasted that not only
would the Howard Mission be closed but
also the Home for the Friendless, the
Children's Aid Society, the Newsboys
Lodging House. and other institutions Of
the same kind in different parts Of the city.
The Howard Mission is es-
tablished upon a purely Catholic basis,
having on its Advisory Committee gentle
men Of unequalled responsibility and So
cial standing, from the Baptist, the Pres
byterian, the Protestant Episcopal, the
Methodist and the Congregational denom-
nations. A visit to the institution will
satisfy any one of its usefulness" {

A Washington dispatch says that a dis
patch from General Grant, under date Of
the sth, states that he had no doubt that
Port Hudson was evacuated by the rebels,
with the exception of small garrison
and some heavy guns that could not easily
be removed. There is little doubt that
this force has gone up to Jackson by rail-
road from Greensburg, and thence toward
Vicksburg by railroad, to prevent General
Grant from cutting off the supplies Of
Vicksburg by destroying the Southern Mis-
sissippi Railroad. General Grant, at the
time be wrote, was well satisfied with the
situation Of affairs. eos

Parties 60 out in boats, and yawn beneath

the water with hook and line attached, and
never got bite. Yet it was said that the
pond was first rate place to fish in. An-
other time we were out snsring suckers.
Leaning over the trunk of tree on the bank
to reach a particularly plump sucker, we
heard a splash in the water. In a moment

water out of his mouth, and padding to the
shore erawled out in a moist and unpleasant

pick the fish up for suckers, and were sucked

other men equally as great. Wehaven't en-

The decision Of J Idge Leavitt, Of Cinein-
natl, adverse to granting a writ of habsas
corpus in the case of C. L. Vallandigham,
is full of sound reasoning and good law.
Upon the main point of Vallandigham' 5
protest, and of the application, viz. that
he was not in either the military or naval
service, and, therefore, not liable to trial
by COurt-martial, the Judge says:
"The Court cannot shut its eyes to the
grave fact that war exists, involving the
most imminent public danger, and threat
ening the subversion and destruction Of
the Constitution itself. In my Judgment
when the life Of the Republic is imperiled
he mistakes his duty and obligations as 3
patriot who is not willing to eonoede to
the Constitution such a capacity Of adapt
alton to circumstances as may be neces-
sary to meet a great emergency, and save
the nation from helpless ruin.
Self-preservation is a paramount law,
which q nation, as well as an individual,
may find it necessary to invoke.
