NO pachSllQ0en NcLuOulSL OrOtncr who
professed contrition and asked for readmis-
sion to the Church, was ever brought down
on his marrow bones go low ns II. j. Ray
mond in the Republican caucus, or received
go severe az admonition from the elders and
deacons for his past offences as that caucus
administered to the "littlc villain" Of tue
New York Tines, who deserted Lis party last
summer and sojourned for season with
Andy johnson, ungodly Coppcrheads md
nnrepcntant rebels. Poor Raymond Is down
in the valley Of Humiliation, covered with
sackcloth and ashes. Ifhe gives evidence Of
sincere repentance, by supporting all the
measures Of the Notwithstanding Impair
tial suffrage and reorganization Of the rebel
south-we think he ought to be forgiven
and taken back into membership. But II be
don't fully work up to the articles OF Radi-
cal faith, he should be placed on back
seat until he brings forth works meet tor
repentance.
The following account of the scene in the
caucus is rather fuller description than
was furnished by our Washington reporter:
