CHURCH TRoUBEE.--It is already
known that somewhat heated contra
versy has been going on for some time
between the High and Low church par
ties in the Protestant Episcopal commu-
nifty, in the Diocese of New York, touch
ing the late act of DIR. Tying in officia-
ting in place Of worship belonging 70
another sect, which is looked upon, as a
fragrant breach of disciplin. The party
which bring the charge appeal to the
canons and rubrics in support of the cor
rectness of their views, while DR. Tying
and his adherants maintain the right of
Episcopal ministers to preach wherever
they receive a call, "all canons, rubries,
pastoral letters, to the contrary notwith-
standing" But though the canons and
rubries of the Church may favor the
High Church party and bear hard on DIR.
Tying, public opinion and the custom OF
the age are, beyond question, on the side
of the Dr. and his Low church adherants.
Of this even his. accusers seem to be
growing sensible, since, though as persis-
tent as ever in defense of their argument,
they vet deem it prudent to compromise
the matter and retire from the conflict
with as little disgrace as possible. The
evangelical party manifest no disposition
to let them off thus easily, but avow
their determination to proceed to the
"most extreme ISSUE" in order to SECURE
a full and unqualified decision on DR..
Tyng's course. 1t is no longer with the
Solitary case of DR.. Tying that the Com
mittee or. Convention will have to deal,
if they go on with the matter, since two
more Episcopal ministers have recently
offended in the same way as the afore-
named Doctor-the Rev. John A. Par
sons of the Diocese of Delaware, by
preaching in the Dutch Reformed Church
at Hackcnsack, and Rev. Robert McMur-
dy editor of The WeaO York; Ffeemason,
by officiating at Roseville, near Newark.
1t is hardly probable that, the case of DR.
Tying once settled, the others will be ia
ken up. *

INDIsPENsIBLE.-The Springfield Re
publican has it's own ideas of the Presi-
dents course. 1t believes that he is bet
ter as a consolilator of the Republican
ranks than any other living man. 1t
says: NNobody has been able to ac-
count satisfactorily for the strange course
of the President We suspect he has
been secretly bough. up by the Republi-
can National. Committee, to help in the
Fall elections. His Swinging round the
circle" last year, secured splendid tri-
umphs for the Republicans. This year
they were somewhat anxious about the
Fall elections until the President came
to their aid. His conflict with General
Grant and the Department Commanders
has new made everything secure. There
is fresh talk aboss impeachment, but the
truth is we eanAes spare the President
just yet; there would be a fearful state
of political indifference if he did not
"come down. to disturb the waters oe-
casionly. Keep-him in the White, House
smother year, and the Republicans will
be sure of the Presidency, whoever is
their candidate

The Contest in Ohio.

TIE political contest in this State is
exciting unusual attention throughout
the Union. On all sides it is consid-
cred to be the great struggle between
loyalty and disloyality, between the
great Republican principles and the prin-
ciples that formed the central ideas of
the overthrown Confederacy. The unre-
generated Southern rebels openly claim
Thurman and his associates as their fel-
lows, and declare the indentity of the
Ohio Democratic principles with those
of the 'Lost Cause" On the other hand
the loyal men throughout the Union are
in full accord with the Republican Union
party of Ohio and have placed all their
sympathies on the side of that party in
the contest. The St. Louis Democrat
plainly describes the issue as it is looked
upon by the people ofthe other States /:
In plain truth, it is square fight be-
tween those who want this nation regen-
Grated, and those who do not between
those who justify the war and rejoice in
its results and those who denounce the
war and curse its results; between those
who believe in emancipation and those
who resisted it; between those who
want the national debt repudiated and
those who want it paid; between those
who fought in blue and those who fought
in gray. If Thurman triumphs in Ohio,
John Morgan has carried the State. If
Thurman triumpEs, Ohio surrenders to
Kentucky. IF Thurman triumphs, the
tens of thousands of brave men who
have gone to patriot graves from that
State, have foug ght and died in vain. 1t
is not question of men, nor yet alto
gether of measures. The idea of the re,
bellion, logical in its purposes and SYM
pathies and reasoning, stands face to face
with the idea of loyalty with its natu-
raj and inevitable results. And the vic
tory of Hayes will be not only victory
of truth over error, of equal suffrage
over caste, but Of loyal regeneration over
rebel reaction, of the cause that Stanton
and Sheridan represent over the forces
led by Johnson and Vallandigham. John
Morgan could not conquer Ohio in 1868
We doubt if his friends can conquer ii
| in 1867. .' s

Special dispatch to the Cleveland Leader.
..- WASHINGTON, September


GEN. GRyNT AND THE PRESIDENT.
The Presidents proclamation is a di-
rect assault upon the position assumed
by General Grant, as it is well known
that Sickles pursued the course he did
under direct instructions from General
Grant. The latter had an interview
with President johnson concerning this
matter, aud also regarding Grants late
order to the District Commanders to-day
and there is the best reason. for suppos-
ing it to have been as decided i'll its tone
on either side as the public might ex-
pect after what has already passed
Notwithstanding the. legal difficulties
yesterday to be in way of removal, it
seems most certain Grant will be out of
the War office in afew days. In this
interview, while on the subject of recon-
struction, it is understood that Grant
said to the President that but for the
stubborn opposition of the latter the
Constitutional Amendment, would have
been adopted and the ten excluded States
have been now in the Union; that, fur
ther, it was unfortunate for the e,conntry
they did not get in, as there would have
been ten enemies in the Union 1t is
stated that the President has called for
the correspondence between himself and
the army headquarters, with view to
publish it. There is nothing known to
be in it. Several letters of Gen.. Grants
are quite as pointed as any yet publish
ed. -. .o- g..
The New York Herald, that has been
supporting Gen. Grant for the Presiden-
cy, and the Congressional plan Of recon
struction, and advocating negro suffrage,
with character istic inconsis tency has
just flung one of its remarkable hip-haps,
and has gone back on Congress, Grant
and equal suffrage, and now supports
johnson for the Presidency and venom
ously faunts the idea of giving the bal
lot to the negro. He also urges John
son to take bold stand against Con
gress. The INSCRIPTIONS and mercenary
character of the Herald is so well known
that it matters little what it says, or
what or whom it fayors or Opposes
The weight of its influence in political
matters is not appreeiabe. Ii has long
led the van of the Satanic Press" and
seems content with its bad eminence.

President and Grant still at Varience,

Though the argument between Gen.
Grant and the President has ended, nei-
ther has accepted the position of the
other. Mr.. johnson, aided by the legal
advice of such men as Black, has fatty
told General Grant that whatever may
have been the intention of Congress. it
did not really give Grant any power to
instruct the District Commanders, or to
disapprove any of the recent orders, ex-
cept such as relate to removals. A close
and careful analysis of the law at head
quarters, had convinced Gen. Grant tlfst
the President is right on the strict con-
struction of the law. The President told
Gen. Grant that, under the Reconstruc-
ton act, the latter had no right to issue
paragraph FIVE, of the order to General
Thomas, to which Grant replied that
the paragraph in question was issued
under the army regulations, which he
claims gives him the right. He has
indicated his purpose to prepare direc-
tions OF the same character, and trans
nit them to Gen. Hancock. All of Mr..
Johnson's friends, are clamoring with
great glee that the supplemental Recon
struction Act OF the late extra session
will naturally place no serious obstacles
in the Presidents way, if he desires
to defeat congressional Reconstruction,
that if Mr.. Johnson should order the
time Of registration extended, and of the
election postponed, that General Grant
could neither refuse to transmit the or
der or prevent its execution. Gen Grant
is determined to fearlessly exercise all
powers vested in him by Congress as
they are interpreted by the best legal
ad dyisnrs ..-.I .,.. .t.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher says of the
item column" in the newspapers, that
it is worth more than all the small fry of
correspondents with an editor thrown in
to boot! Like a caravan, it stretches
along its columns with packages and par
GELS, spices and gems, bits of fragrance
or cunningly wrought metals, gathered
from the Orient and from the whole
world besides The items of the paper,
like the stuffing of a Thanksgiving tur-
key, represent everything in the house,
crusts OF bread, crackers, and all spices. "

Egr According to the latest dispatches publish
ed, the English Government has declared its
readiness to submit to commission of arbitra
| tion the claims of the United States against
England, if at the same time the claims OF Eng
lish citizens against the United States would
| be submitted
E4"One of the most prosperous and cnterpris-
ing colored settlements in the Western States
Is at Williamsville, Cass county, Michigan
Most of the settlers are runaway slaves from
the south, and the number of people is about
two thousand Many of them own good farms.
| They have three good churches. they support
good schools, and some of their young people
are seeking an education in higher seminaries
and colleges. During the war the settlement
furnished full proportion OF soldiers for the
Army of the Republic
IRON and after June LIST, of the coming year,
no bankrupt, without the consent oil majority
in number and in value of the creditors, can
pet his discharge unless his assets pay hliy
cents ON. the dollar. There must be avery large
number of insolvents who would hnd 1t an ut
ter impossibiity to either pay half of what
tbev owe or to get the consent of their credit
ors TO their discharge. To this class of our
citizens the bankrupt law will be of very little
service. unless they file their petitions immedi-
ately.
EgDemocratic orators and papers devote i'm
menso pains and the larger part of their time
in attempting to prove that the black man is
necessarily, and permanently, the mental, NOR
al, and physical inferior of the white They
then use just as many reams of paper and hours
OF time in attempting to, prove that there is i'm
mincnt danger of negro equality and even ne
gro superiority. How is this? If nature has
put the stamp of eternal infcriority on the fore
head of the colored man, and inslilled its virus
into Lis b'ood, how can the use OF the ballot
reverse this decree of nature :?

THE INDIAN WAR.-The Indian Peace
Commissioners have been questioning
the prominent military commanders on
the Plains as to the number of the troops
and the amount of money likely to be
required for an effectual prosecution of
the war and We hope the country will be
gratifed at the result of their inquiries.
With 10000 men, three-quarters of them
cavalry, and an expenditure of $780,
100000, we may be able to conquer a
peace in about 5 years. Gen. Hancock
in his testimony before the Indian Com
missioner, is very decided in his opinion
that serious war exists, and even de-
clares that, if the troops were withdrawn,
not white man would remain in Colo.
RADIO, and the great highways to the Pa
citic would be closed. The Indians, he
says, are amply provided with the best
modern weapons, even making use OF
field-glasses. The expenses of the Gen
eral Department have thus far been sub.
stantially those of a. peace enlistment
He places the number Of hostile Indians
engaged between the Arkansas and the
Platte at 1,500 or 1000.
