The CLERGY.


The Urbana Jliion indulges in some very
appropriate reflections upon the late
meeting Of clergymen in Cincinnati, and
upon their admission that the cause OF
Christianity was ina retrogade condition.
1t says: i''I
at hardly deserves to be called a ques-
ton amy longer whether the church has
lost its power rs great moral influence,
and 1t Is mainly to be attributed to the con-
duct of the ministers themselves In be-
coming denagogue politicians. making
stump speeches in the street and political
prayers IN the pulpit. They have excited
against themselves y contempt, or some-
thing very like it, in that great body OF
people who make no profession of religion
themselves, and yet had respect for those
who do make it In sincerity and in truth.
If they see a minister in the street talk
ing of copperheads and denomcing rs
Northern rebels every man that does not
follow his party of negro freedom aud
negro voting. and hoping to see every
Northern rebel hing, they will be little
apt to follow him into church and listen to
him there, when protesting to speak as one
ordained of God. 1t is a great public
calamity that this feelingof respect in the
mass of the people Is offended and de-
stroyed. And these monthly meetings of
ministers would do well to enter upon the
wholesome duty of self-eXamination, and
to cast the beam from their own eyes be-
fore they go forth to remove the NOTES that
they see IN the eyes of others" u. .at

New Atlantic Cable.

There Is a project, started In London, 10
lay ALIENS telegraphic cable across the At
lantc by new route. Mr.. ALLEN has id
vented new cable, which he aflirms is
better than any other. He sheathes the wire
toithin gutta percha covering instead OF
having a wire protection outside. His wire
has "an internal conducting copper core, Of
dimensions varying according to the pro-
posed length of the cable, protected by ia
spiral casting Of small steel wres-which
themselves constitute the strength of The
eable--the whole embedded in gutta percha,
and covered with on outer covering of tar
red hempen tape" Il weighs only one-fourth
Of the lost Atlantic cable: is only ave
eights of an inch in diameter, instead ofone
and one tenth inches; takes up little room
in ship; costs about a fifth Of the other
cables; and viii transmit much greater
number Of letters in n given time. The
projected line is intended 10 run from Lon
don to Oporto, six hundred miles; from
OportO to the Azores, nine hundred; and
from the Azores to Halifax, fourteen hund-

The New York Vorld publishes some
thing Il little sensational from st. Domingo.
It consists of an anonymous statement of
iering to prove, by numerous witnesses,
whose names are said to be communicated
privately to the editor of the World, that in
1861, after the Domincans had won a vic
tory over the Spanish invaders, an envoy
was sent to Washington to seek friendly
alliance with the United States; that the
envoy could not get even an unofficial
hearing from Secretary SEWARD, while the
messenger from Hayti was duly received
aud honOrcd that the majority of the Do
miuican Congress desired an alliance with
the United States; that another envoy was
dispatched about the same time by the mi
nority of that Congress TO obtain a recog-
milton from France, and was successful |;
that ON the failure of the application at
Washington, the alliance was made with
8 NAPOLEON, aud all Americans who had
commenced working in the mines on thai
island were NJ once ordered TO abandon
them. And thus, by the timidity Of our
Government. ST. Domingo is to become an
outpost of MACMILLAN. .l HdiI-tt

while Hon. Geo. ". Julian was waiting in

from .under his coat and proceeded to apply

cause ls,jswe suppose, political jealousy.

notes to none save the holders of govern

as security for the loan. This enables the
favored few to borrow ut six per cent,
while upon their bonds they draw 7-3O, and
thus does the bank and the bank borrower
both make money by the operation. The
bank upon its one hundred thousand dol

allowed 10 issue S90,0O0 in notes. These
notes The bank loans to its customers at G

interest on its notes and $1,000 ON its capl-
tai. The borrower is obliged TO deposit
witlV the banks, and on this deposit they
receive interest and pay none. BY these
means and by dealing in exchange they
