The number of tea1pftqnce pl1E5ctaas
is comparatively few. Not that there
are few who claim for themselves the
application of the term tcmpeJate.-
One who occasionally takes a glass of
wine or brandy with a tr5cad. and Of

ate the latter appellation. Perhaps
in the common accertatlon of tn
term he may do so. lie claims to
use these articles tempcratei4 and
therefore is temperate man He

not so much 80 that his friends have
detected departure from sobriety
Doubtless there are many whose con

under their selEcontrol they may in

sense above spoken Of, and not allow
the habit to become fastened up0H tbcm
SO long as they are thus free. even
temperance people will accept their
prescriptions and follow their advice
to use as a tonic and restorative the
5iHerS so freely sold throughout the
country, as Hostetter's Bitters, Plan
tation Bitters. or similar " bitters :"
under some other name.
The amount Of bitteys sold through
out the western country would sur
prise those who have paid little atten-
ton to this subject; and they are used
chiefly by those who follow the adj
vice Of those physicians who claim
to be temperate; and thus many a
reformed man has fallen. and multi
tudes have formed appetites for stim-
ulauts that cling to them with all the
teuacity Of a second nature. The
consequences are terrible. There +
no doubt but that it Is in this way a

The truth Is that these temperate =

Religious Comrtesirs.

The congregation of Archbishop Spaldng,
the Catholic primlte Of America, extended to
him the courtesies Of a cordial welcome in the
Cathedral Of his episcopal see at Baltimore,
on Sunday, upon his return from Rome, where,
in conjunction with other American prelates,
he went on invitation Of the Pope TO partici-
pate ia the late grand pious festivities al ST.
Peters. The Archbishop described in glowing
terms the magnificent spectacle he had wit
messed at the celebration in presence Of the
three hundred and sixty-second successor Of
ST. Peter. at the most critical period OF his
pontificate. All that sincere affection and
respect could inspire was observable in the
greeting given to Archbishop Spaldiug on this
occasion. On the next day the Episcopal
clergy and large number of the laity Of New
York paid q similar tribute to the Proiestan.
bishop Of this diocese, DR.. Potter, at Trinity
chapel, on his return from London, where he
had been in attendance upon the Pan-Anglcan
Synod The Bishop gave some OF his expc-
rience Of the English Protestant Church and
the bishops and clergy, whom he described as
meek and lowly compared with our ideas Of
them. From these two acts of courtesy extended
to leading lights Of the different religions we
gather the grain Of consolation that we have
some right to he regarded as a Christian
country after all, despite the corruption and
rascalty Of the politicians.

Crime In New York.

We have to lament some instances Of murder
and sanguinary assaults that have lately taken
place in this city. Prominent among them is
the assassination Of policeman by one OF
the lost creatures that nightly disgrace our
thoroughfares. The metropolis has hitherto
enjoyed comparative immunity from such
ouirages, considering its extent, population
and cosmopolitan character and even with
these late crimes 1t can show cleaner police
record than many of our provincial towns.
The number and character Of crimes COM
mitted in some Of the Western and neighboring
cities exceed those of New York, not only in
comparative but even absolute number and
character. In many instances murders are
committed in those cities by well known despe-
radoes, while among Us they are generally
unprecedented and the result Of intoxication
or sudden outburst Of passion. No desperate
character can defy the power Of the law and
remain at large in the mstropolis, terror to
all respectable and peaceful citlzsns, as is the
case very often in other cities. Besides many
of the crimes committed in New York are the
work of importations from provincial towns
that make much ado about the wickedn ess OF
Gotham. The police authorities need to exer-
else more than ordinary vigilance at present,
as the frequency of murderous assaults, wife
killing and street brawls would indicate one OF
those epidemios of crime that periodically
afflict great cities.

The virx,aia Election.

Our reports of tn first days voting at the
virginii election Chay vote two dlys) in the
city OF Richmond for a reconstruction Stale
convention and delegates thereto show mn
jority OF some i've hundred Tor the white con-
servaliye against the Hnnnicutt, or black raai-
cal, ticket. This is good start, an it looks
as II the expectations OF conservative victory
in the city and in the State were well founded.
Iii probable that many black has lost bis
vote by forgetting the name under which he
was registered. A large proportion of the
Southern blacks under slavery were only
known as Bob, Tom, Caesar. Pompay, Sam or
Jack, Christmas or Friday, and when going to
register they gave for de odder name" any
thing which at the moment most pleased their
fancy. Thus IN Charleston the registration, it
is said, exhibits slxty-three black Abraham
Lincolns, forty-six George Wash ngtons and
thirty odd Andrew Jacksons. So we suspect
that some Of our "fellow citizens Of African
descen" in Virginia have been caught mapping
in forgetting their registered names on election
day, and il they lose tho State from this pecu-
liar sort Of apathy they must grin and bear 1t.
The white conservatives registered, however,
have decided m lority in the State, and if
they all come out they will doubtless defeat
the Hunnicutt radicals, which will be o grea.

Suspension 81 tho Royal Bank OF Liver

We Rave BEEN informed by telegram tina. the
Royal Bank of Liverpool has suspend d, and
that its lilbliii - are over twenty-five millions
of dollars. The inyariabl, statemen, added
to all such news Of bank suspensions, SHAT 1t
Is thou hit the bank will no yume busn ,ss, is
made, OF course. No bank ever suspended
that this quoting announcement was not made,
however improbable resumption might be.
We hope there may be good reason tor it In
this case. We have not yet received any de-
tails about the causes of this tcoube with the
Royal Bank of Liverpool. Looking at the
magnitude Of the establ q .mant and its enor-
nous Liabilities, there must have been, we think,
some general cause outside OF the ordinary ac-
cidents of business or Encouragement l. is
known that there has been great and general
stagnation of business in England, and this,
too. with an extraordinary plethora of money.
There has been, and Is, in feet, want ofproft.
able employment in England for its accuma
lated capital Such an institution as his bark
would hardly know how to employ its capital
so as to realize profits enough to meet the la
blities and demands upon II, particularly II
these were contracted under different state of
things. A bank may be damaged by having
no profitable employment for lis money, as well
as from having a scarcity fit. However, the
suspension may have arisen from cotton or
other speculsti0nS We shall look with much
interest for statement Of the c,uses which
have brought such q gigantic institution to
suspend amid q superabundance of unem-
ployed capital in England.

The democratic chances for the nomination

OF New York, Pendleton Of Ohio. and General
Mcclellan. As to General Sherman, he has too
many peculiar crotchets of his own to serve the
political purposes of either party, aud so he may
be counted out. He was nominated by little

apt to throw the country into inextricable con-

The Dean Richmond aud Vanderbilt Col.
Lisbon.

After some four weeks Of inactivity the
proper authorities seem 10 have at last stirred
themselves up to searching investigation into
the circumstances attending the recent steam
boat accident on the Hudson. Yesterday the
United States public inspectors Of machinery
and steam vessels commenced an official ex-
animation Of all the facts which can bear upon
the Vanderbilt and Dean Richmond collision
and from the evidence, which will be found at
length in another part OF the paper, there
appears to be an earnest desire on the part OF
those implicated to fully sift the matter to the
bottom. The whole gisi OF the affair at present
seems to rest on the signals Of the two pilots,
and the examination turns on the possibility Of
some mistake having here arisen; although Iii
acknowledged that there was no lookout man
stationed on the forward deck Of the Dean
Richmond, as required by law. In such
stage Of the inquiry, however. where the wit
nesscs on one side only have been examined, 1t
would be unfair to draw any conclusion. 1t
is 10 be hoped. that when the facts have been
fully investigated some warning example will
be made, so as to prevent similar accidents in
future and IL any blame can be proved against
the pilots or other parties implicated the
United States inspectors should allow no
scruples 10 stand in the way OF the enforce
ment of the law to its fullest extent
