ALL Ofthe New York papers publish an APP
peal in behalfof the Jaffa colonists, who have
fallen into the deepest distress. Their crops
have failed and they are in danger of starva-
ton. Measures ought to have been taken for
their relief long ago. The World very proper
o ly compares the Indifference displayed by the
American people with reference to their un
fortunate fellow countryman with the vigor-
.ous efforts of the English, who are about to en-
ter upon costly and tedios war for the sake
ofrescuing a less number of British subjects
from the power of the sovereign of Abyssinia.

IT isnow said that one of the principal rea.
sons of Stanton's removal was his refusal to
issue artillery to the State OF Maryland in lien
of its quota of arms. The President requested
him TO comply with Gov. Swans's desires in
this respect, but he refused to do so except in
obedience to direct executive order to that
effect. The President, not wishing to take the
responsibility of so REASONABLE an act, prefer
ed to remove the War Minister with the inten-
ton of ultimately obtaining the services of
plant tool in his stead. But Grant is not the
man for his purpose.

Mh, EDlToR;z-A year ago, the Young Mems
Christian Association, after wears of am exist
ence which was practically little better than
death, placed itself upon a somewhat broader
platform than it had occupied in the past. by
an amendment to its Constitution which per
mitted any Protestant Christian, as well as
Eudngetacdl to become member of the Asso-
citation.
Since that time, the Association has done
marvellously well. 1t has prospered in its
work, and not less in its financial interests
During the past spring and summer the Asso-
citation raised upon subscription paper, which
expressly stated that the Association was open
to all Protestant Christians, something like
eight hundred dollars for the purpose of fur
nishing its rooms. Having collected nearly all
of this amount and in full enjoyment of the
furniture thus procured, the Association, or
portion of it, at very small meeting, delibe-
rateF turns over (through amending its Consti-
tuition, by the insertion of the word "Eodngeli-
car in the place of Professionally to the Evan
gelical denominations the benefit of the money
collected for different purposel
The writer knows of several who contributed
sums varying from twenty five dollars down,
who would never have given cent with the
expectation that it was to be so misappropria-
ted. Was it Christian in the Association so to
act? And have those victimized contributors
any relief? AN INQUIRER.

GENERAL BUTLER appears to have good
deal of trouble about his finacial theories. He
has written one explanation OF his doctrines
for the Boston Advertiser and now he appears
with another in the New York Tribune. The
substance of his argument for the payment of
the principal of the $40 bouds in greenbacks,
selling now las for 100 in gold, is that "when
the $40 loan bill was passed, it established the
interest at six per cent, payable in gold. but
said nothing about the currency in achich the
principal acds to be paid" The truth il that
when that bill was drafted everybody expected
resumption of specie payments at an early
date alter the close of the war, and no sensible
man expected the war to continus~for five
years. When the bonds matured it was sup
posed that all payments would be made in
gold, and it was therefore regarded as needless
to say anything about the principal of the
5-20s The interest was to be paid during the
SUSPENSION and that the government promised
to pay in coin. We have not resumed specie
payments and hence an opportunity is offered
tor such propositions as General Buffers and
Mr. Pendleton's. The Tribune reminds Gen
eral Butler that millions of bonds payable in
greenbacks and drawing interest at 3-1Oths
per cent. have been exchanged for 5-2O's bear
ing per cent, in the expectation that these
would be paid in gold, and insists that "a man
Tor government mourning an obligation is
morally bound to discharge that obligation as
he supposes the creditor to understand him to
promise to fulfil it," - ~ ilsstIfa 2-si

LENT AND THE RITUALISTS.
ASH WEDNESDAY,

No less observant of forms than the Ro- man Catholics are the modern Ritualists, who celebrate each remarkable epoch in Church history with pomp and circum- stance, in some particulars if not all, as marked as do the Catholics We have be-
 tU1e 1vvoral vovesSions described the mode of worship practised at St. Alban's Chapel Forty-second street The so-called innovations upon the simple forms of the Episcopal service, have called for conside- rLble comment since the candles were first lighted on the altar of St. Alban's 8 year ago, but opposition seems to give vigor to the new institution rather than retard its progress. E.g,..t7
 Yesterday the holy season of Lent was ushered in by priests and acolytes, golden crucifxes, tapers, chants, genulections and such like officiating parapharnalia and ob-. servances as but few years ago would not be seen outside the edifces of the Greek or Romish Churches. f-[ ... .. .r.-.
 The altar and sanctuary were ornament ed in gorgeous style with cruciix and can delabra, and the anteperdium of the altar was of purple cloth-the true Lenten col or-emblazoned with the symbolic Cross and Lamb. The pulpit and sacristy were also ornamented in similar fashion, and
 
 The services commenced with q proces- sion of priests and acolytes chanting the hymn, Forty days and forty nights. , The procession was led by Messrs. Morrell, Moves and Eimendorf-the two former ta- king seats outside the altar rail- and the latter advancing to the altar where he read 1 the morning prayer. This was followed by | the chanting of the Venite and the Beni- dlclte, joined in by the choir. After the | introductory service was ended, Mr. Mor- 1 rell, as officiating priest, appeared in chau- ! suble surphce and stole of the Lenten pur- pie, and ornamented on the back and breast with the emhlems before named. The ser- vices were then proceeded with, and mark ed by the frequency of genuhection, the reading of Initiatory Prayer, with the back toward the people, and the tolling of the bell, before described. On ascending the pulpit, the priest blessed himself in the same manner precisely as that pursued by the priests of the Romish Church prior to their preaching, by making the form of the cross upon the person-placing the fingers of the right hand first to the forehead, next to the heart, and then to the left and right shoulders, repeating the words, ..In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen" At the close l of an eloquent sermon the reverend gen. tieman descended from the pulpit and again approached the altar with all the evil dences of humility before shown, and there concluded the ecciesiastic service. ., .a .s The chapel was thronged by worshippers and those who gathered more from motives of curiosity than the desire to participate in the service.-N. ?.
