AN ALLEGED CLERICAL FoRaEa.-STa-
c,tse, July ls.-Rev. Mr.. Mitchell, q Metho-
dist clergyman, at Chittenango, Madison
county, it is reported forged the name of
Robert Stewart, president of the National
Bank Of Chittenango, to draft for IS, 900,
payable to the order of Rev. Mr.. Green
leaf, Methodist minister, ut Lee Centre.
Mitchell and Greenleaf look alike, and the
prisoner, it is stated, deceived Carleton the
publisher, of New York, into identifying
him as Greenleaf, to whose order the draft
was payable at the Fourth National Banl,
of New York. Mitchell got the money and
invested it in Government securities. His
resemblance to Greenleaf led to his detec-
ton. He restored $4,000, and escaped.

Garry ing Things wbth n High Hano'
THE Spanish authorities in Cuba do not seem
to be gifted with the virtue Of discretion, and,
considering their rather preoarious position,
they are certainly carrying things with high
hand.
Mr.. Il. r. Codrington, the United States
Consul at Gibara, has been arrested, put ip
irons, and carried to Havana on suspicion OF
completely with the rebellion. II is extremely
doubtful whether there is any ground for
such suspicion; but even II there is, this
action is a direct violation of one of the most
important principles of international law,
and the matter is one that the
Government Of the United States will
be obliged to notice in very decided and
uDmistakable manner. The sympathies of
Congress and of the people of this country are
strongly in favor of the Cuban patriots, and
all that is wanted Is reasonable excuse for
US to recognize them as belligerents. The
result Of such recognition would undoubtedly
be the severance of the island from the
dominion of SPAN, and ultimately its annexa-
tion to the United States. The desires of the
people of the United States and the Cuban
patriots are in unison on this point, and it is
certainly the height of folly for the Spanish
authorities to do anything to preoipitste the
action which must result in their own down
fall.
Another blunder of the most gigantic di-
mensions is the seizure by Spanish man-of-
war Of the British ship JEFF. Davis and the
boarding of the schooner Britannia, intelli-
gence of which has been received from
Havana. The English Government has
always been prompt to resent such action as
this, and all that could possibly deter it from
interfering in the most summary manner in
this instance would be the fear of aiding the
United States in getting possession of Cuba.
An imbrogiio with two such nations as the
United States and England is the last thing to
be desired by the Spanisrds at this present
juncture, and the reoklessness of their con-
duct is therefore the more remarkable.

The two houses of Congress are at loggerheads
on other questions than that of the Tenure of
Office repeal. Last session there was a ma
Ject of a reform in the Federal Judiciary, and
the same issue has been again distinctly
joined. The Senate has already passed bill
remodelling the system by providing for the
appointment of number Of circuit judges,
whose duty it shall be to relieve the Justices
of the Supreme Court of the greater portion
of their labor, by rendering it necessary for
them to preside at only one circuit court in
the period OF two years. This bill came be-
fore the House of Representatives yesterday,
but the House refused to concur. Instead of
doing this, they passed substitute, embody-
ing all the material provisions of the
Senate bill, with the features of the
retiring bill of last session tackled on. 1t is to
be hoped that it will finally receive the assent
of the Senate in this shape. When man
has reacht the mature age Of seventy years
he certainly has earned the privilege
of rest but there is neither
Justice nor wisdom in compelling
him secure that rest at the expense of his
paltry salary. By giving the members of the
Federal judiciary the privilege of retiring
upon pension, after they have devoted the
best years OF their lives to the public service,
the efficiency of the Judiciary will be greatly
promoted, and the Republic will for once
prove the traditional ingratitude with which
it is credited undeserved.

LEARN A TNADE,-Thc advice
Of Benjamin Franklin was, to give
every chill a trade by which he
could earn a living, This Is a
good and wise COUNSEL, and should
be needed where it is necessary.
There arc too many idle boys
seeking easy positions; positions
that do not require manual Ia
Dor. Parents may leave their
children fortunes but "riches take
to themselves wings" You may
give them finished educations, and
they may bo gifted with extraor-
dinary genius; but they may be
placed in situations where no cdu-
cation and no talent may be SC
available as some humble honest
trade, by which they can get their
living and be useful to others.
