the fuss; but, in spite of ourselves, We cannot
help gigeling at the fun. N
A scene of a kind which has become not
uncommon upon this continent occurred in
the Church Of the Atonement, in Chicago, on
Sunday, the 14th instant 1t is the misfor-
tune of the Rev. Dr. Thayer, the shepherd
of this church, to have chronic quarrel
with that part of the flock called vestrymen.
He is accused of making ell l-timed and
unnecessary remarks in his sermons." Nor
does the church under his ministry tsgrow'
as it should, TO the great detriment of the
treasury. Wherefore the vestrymen held a
meeting and voted to ask DIR. Thayer to
resign; and, should he refuse to do 80, to
turn him out Although not officially served
with this document, DIR. Thayer obtained
copy of 1t, and on the aforesaid Sunday, in
full congregation, he expressed bis mind,
which was not a pacific or complimentary
mind, of the aforesaid vestrymen. The ac-
count before us says that he was "pale with
rsge;" but can we imagine gentle shepherd
thus disregarding the Arcadian simplicities
of his calling? DIR. Thayer, in substance.
said that he did not believe that majority of
the sheep wished him to resign; and. not to
put too fine point upon it, he wouldn't. 1t
was then that the vestrymen rose to do battle,
and such bleating never was heard in the
fold before. Some were for having vote at
once taken on the subject, and some declared
that such a course would be ''illegal and reyo-
lutionary." Largenumbers of people sprung
to their feet. Dozens were gesticulating
and talking together. Some swore ESQ to
speak, that there should be vote. Others
affirmed that there should not. ssThe
church, says the report of the
affair, twas filed with noise and
confusion" There was hesitation in
some faces, and wrath in others, Alto
gether, 1T was quite carnal scene, and what
might have happened we tremble to think
(possibly manslaughter) if one of the vestry-
men, who bears the strong and strident name
of StridiroD, had not, with admirable pres
ence of mind, ordered everybody to leave the
sacred edifce. He spake and was obeyed.
The ferocious alteration was renewed upon
the sidewalk, and then the whole flock went
home to the subduing pasturage of their Sun
day dinners, to allay by their pleasant nib
bliDgs, and by either still or strong waters.
the partisan fervors of this extraordinary oc-
casion. What will come of all this we do not
know; but should there be an actual physical
contest, we shall try to chronicle the fearful
fact.
1t has been generally conceded, in all ages
of Christianity, that "Brethren should dwell
together in unity" but, somehow, in all
ages they have sadly failed to do SO; and
church quarrels we're never more common
than at the present time. Being ourselves.
although secular, great lovers of peace and
harmony (when the same can be maintained
without compromising principle), we wish
that the fact were otherwise; and it does not
lessen our regret to observe that more than
a moiety of church squabbles seem to be
about things which are not of the least con-
sequence.

Prussia is doubtless true. But it must be
remembered that none of the projects of
Count Bismarck with regard to foreign nations
have ever attained anything like defniteness,
nor have they ever received the sanction of
the King. The difference between France
and Germany in this respect is very striking.
1t is the head of France who for years has
been striving to tear up old treaties, and to
propagate new ideas, very often to the great
advantage of the world. 1t is not in his hour
of misfortune that we ought to forget
that Italy owes its very existence to
the Emperor of the French. But still he has
been plotting against the established order of
things for twenty years, and his people have
looked very kindly on his plotting. The
Journal OficSel makes the fundamental mis-
take, in our opinion, of looking on Germans
as if they we're Frenchmen. The reply to its
arguments is to be found in the experience
of any one accustomed to mix with the natives
of the two countries. Even the most tenn
perate,and modest Frenchmena are imbued with
the ideas of territorial ACKNOWLEDGMENT and
foreign conquest. They are actuated un-
consciously by memories of the old Napoleon
days, and speak as if they had been robbed
of all the territory which Napoleon won and
failed to keep. Such spirit is unknown in
Germany. The Germans want all Germany
to be united but they want nothing more.
n NbI VI SpOlldilOu WOtlU Dc tOtHllY dO-
horrent to German feelings The
moral sentiment of the Germans
is against wronging and bullying and preying
on adjacent nations. The war with Denmark
may be thought proof to the contrary; but
the Germans at least believed they were tho
roughly in the right, that the Duchies were
German, and had been ill-treated by
foreigner, and that they were only reclaim
ing their own when they took away the
Duchies from Denmark. But, in any case,
isolated acts may misead us. What we rest
upon is the character of the German people,
which is orderly and honest and sober,
and averse to military despotism and
the fatigues and dangers of unnecessary war.
The German army is admirably organized,
and, as has just been shown, can strike swift
and strong blows outside German territory.
But it is essentially a defensive army, and
those who compose it will not readily under
take war unless to protect themselves 1t was
with the utmost reluctance that the Germans
went into the present war, and their only
object at present seems to be to show that
they are not to be invaded with impunity
The Germans may of course become intoxi-
Gated with success but there is no symptom
whatever at present that this will be the case,
and they deserve fully that their past history
and their national character should at least do
this much for them, that neutral nations
should look on their successes without jealousy
or alarm.

FFosa the n. Y. Sun
On Saturday last the steamer florida, for
merly United States steamer Penguin, was
seized BY the United States Marshal for this
district, on the charge Of violating the neu-
trslity laws. As the Marshal is merely the
executive of competentiy issued mandates.
and as the Hon. Hamilton Fish declared ON
Monday last, at his oountry-seat at 0arrisons,
that he knew nothing Of the seizure until he
read an account of it in that mornings paper.
the order of seizure must have issued from
one of the Davises- either from the Assistant
Secretary of State Of Boston and Erie fame,
or from Noah Davis, of Mcfarland trial
notoriety
The order of seizure was made on the
complaint of the Spanish Minister at Wash
iDgton and the Spanish Consul at this port,
and said complaint was based upon the
affidavit of person ''who, as the District
Attorney states ''does not wish his name to
appear"
At the time of seizure the vessel was being
loaded with merchandise for Vera Cruz by
General Darr. OF course the Spanish Minis
ter chose to suspect that she was loading
arms for the Cuban patriots. We know that
the decision of the Washington Cabinet last
October was that the shipment of arms and
munitions of war from our ports was not
prohibited to either party to the Cuban strug-
gle, and that the question of the duty of this
Government to interfere could arise only
when ian expedition of armed men or armed
vessels, or of vessels fitted and prepared and
intended for naval warfare, is started in an v
of our ports" Both the President and the
Secretary bave in public documents not only
stated that the representatives of the Cuban
patriots had the right to ship arms TO Cuba,
but have even, in not very measured terms,
inculpated the Junta of this city tor not
shipping them in a manner by which the
neutrality laws were not violated. As tho
Florida was not an EARNED vessel" and as
she was not ''being fitted, prepared, or in
tended for naval warfare" her seizure was
illegal.
The case, however, is far worse By the
facts it appears that Don Lopez Roberts may
call upon any member of the bootblack
brigade "who does not wish his name to ap-
pear, get him for five dollars to sign an affi-
davit, and on the strength of it-without
being obliged to furnish any security for
damages should the charges not be substan-
tiated-hinder any vessel from leaving any
port in the United States.
If this be so it is time our merchants were
aware of it,

except as be enjoys professional reputation,
repute among journalists who are good
judges of their own class, which does him
high honor, and with which we presume him
to be content.
Only the snobs and underlings enjoy q
publicity which is necessarily mere noto-
riety. No good journal can allow its fame to
rest upon the personal fortunes of any man,
and as a compensation to the journalist he is,
by all honorable men, spared those deroga-
tory personal illusions which he would not
himself apply to others and which cannot by
any possibility weaken-though they may
strengthen-the intrinsic force of the argu-
ment he presents. This is a sound theory of
his position. Mr.. Raymonds idea-and
America has known no abler Journalist
that a newspaper represents not so much
its editor as the aggregate mind of its readers.
If they are pure-minded and intelligent, so
must be his conduct of the paper. If they
are vulgar and ignorant he will be vile and
personal. The rule will be found to hold
good.

Secretary and Admiral Porter showed itself
maryellously in the selection of the naval
craft for Asiatic service He has sent them
the Colorado, sixty-gun frigate, drawing at
least twenty-five feet of water, and there is
not port or anchorage where she can float,
from the Bogue forts to the Chinese wall.
Such is the administrative impotence with
which, at crisis this great nation is afflicted.
At home and abroad, it is all alike.

SHEPHERD AND SHEEP.

Tie beautiful language of the Scripture
which characterizes the Deity as a shepherd
leading his flock, has been applied to the
pastors of Congregational churches. In the
East, the sheep we are told, really follow the
rangements, the individual who carries the
crook walks behind, and il the rams and ewes
of the society do not like his driving, they
turn about and drive him. TO drop all meta
phor, we do not know anything more mourn
full than tho spectacle of Clergyman badgered
and worried by those to whom he is appointed
as teacher of truth. 1t is such an absurd
solecism. 1t is such a ridiculous perversity
II is such droll putting of the cart before
the horse. AS We gaze upon IL we follow the
example of the Widow of Ephesus We laugh
with one eye and We weep with the other
We are alive to the distressing character of
