Religious Contributions.

In our religious departmentwe give report,
in advance of the official documents, of the
amount of contributions for religious and
benevolent purposes received by the different
national and local Protestant societies. 1t
will be seen that for the year ending June 80
the sum received by national societies
amounted to nearly six millions and half,
and for local societies, in the aggregate, about
two millions.
This large sum is mostly raised from
private requests and donations, showing that
liberal spirit blesses the hearts and moves
the hands of our Protestant fellow citizens.
The regular private donations of our Catholic
friends, the aggregate of which rarely meets
the public eye, will swell the amount heavily.
The highest authority of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States have determined
that the reunion of the Old and New Schools
shall be commemorated by special memorial
contribution of five million dollars, and COM
mittee has been appointed to raise the amount
by one million free-will offerings Of ten cents
each for fifty consecutive weeks. This is an
easy way of contributing to the funds of the
Church, and proper way Of cementipg The

The Indian war has commenced with ven
geance Red Clouds men taking part enthusi-
astically in it. When they drive the ringbot
of wagon through white mans heart, and
take out the tendons down his spine for bow
strings, as they did recently, we may well pre-
sumo that the wrath with which that blood
thirsty warrior left civilization has no wise
abated. There is such general movement all
through the Indian countries that more avail
able troops, which were long ago demanded by
the aspect of affairs, have been hurried from
Eastern garrisons to reinforce General Sheri-
dan. Some ofthe Sioux, of Winnipeg Territory,
have crossed the line and are depredating on
American soil. 1t is reported also that the
marauders, when holly pursued, take refuge
in their reservations, where they have supplies
enough laid up from the rations granted them
by the general government, and where, too
they are safe under the treaties from the
vengeance of soldiers or settlers. These facts
show that the savage is extending his opera
tons in securing the aid of his Winnipeg
brethren, and is improving on the savage art
of war in holding his reservations as base,
while he has forgotten nothing of the science
of torture as it was taught and practised by
his ancestors in Wyoming Valley.

General Grant left this city yesterday FOR
Hartford, Conn.,, where he is the guest OF ex-
Governor Jewell. We give a full report OK
his trip in another part of the paper this morn
ing. Everywhere along his route he was en-
Enthusiastically received, the people of all po-
litical denominations turning out heartily to
welcome not only the President or the Cen
eral but the man; for although our people
naturally entertain that high respect for the
chief magistrate which his office should
always command, and feel the greatest graft
tude to the commanding officer of the armies
that rescued the republic at its hour OF need,
the unpretentous and democratic bearing OF
General Grant in his private relations and his
straightforward course as q public omcer
have also strongly endeared him personally to
the hearts of the people. We have never
been among those who cavilled at bis taking
recreation in journeying about among the
people. On the contrary, we believe that the
President of government of the people like
ours should not hold himself aloof from the
people, but that he should mingle among them
and study their wants and resources. This
trip especially is one that we can commend,
for he goes to celebrate his Fourth of July with
the people of the good old Commonwealth OF
Connecticut, and in comparison with the &C
ton of the Senate which has declined to
adjourn over that sacred day, his example Is
a brilliant one.

II MUST BE THE GoUT.-The Paris Figaro,
the cleverest newspaper in the French capital,
and although habitually fond of fun, not a
bad friend of the empire and the Emperor, has
been prosecuted for violation of the Press
law. The particular offence, it is said, was
the publication of false anecdote of the
Emperor and the late Earl of Clarendon.
What was the anecdote? Did it relate to Sol
ferino or Sadowa? Did it refer to the fact
that the Emperor is occasionally afflicted with
the govt? The govt, we do think, must have
been at the bottom of this prosecution. Gouty
is q bad qualification for an empire.

FIFTH AVENUE THEATRE.

Brilliant as the talents of an artist may be, bright
the prospects and sterling the qualifications, sum-
mer time is unavorable for debut. Surrounded.
however by all The Instantaneous elements That
could possibly bar the success Of even well known
individual, Miss Linda Detz made her first profess
sIonal appearance at Mr.. Day's charming theatre
last evening In Fernando" as Gengette. She was
naturally timid, but she had not long been
before the footlights when her graceful
carriage, charming yet modest bearing immedi
ately won the admiration OF the audience. The part
OF GengetSe is trying one even for an experienced
artist. The ladylike demeanor and elegance of
expression which the role demands seemed perfectly
natural to Miss DietZ, and, although at times she
may nave spoken with excusable rapidity, she most
ass uredy created quite favorable impression. In
fact she interpreted the character as one who
thoroughly under stood the role from an artistic
point OF view. She succeeded admirably, and
throughout her splendid effort was greeted with
cordial tokens Of applause. Seldom has any
young lady made such triumph under
such adve circumstances; for surrounding her at
every step were talented artists unegualled In the
metropolis. Miss Dietz may nave little to learn.
but he successful debut last evening must convince
her TRENDS that hstronic triumphs are yet In store
for her. Gifted with all the accomplishments that
could adorn on ambitious asplrant splendid
career may be safely predicted for MISS Detz. It 10

DISSERTATION AT NEwARK.-We call atten-
ton to an article published in another part Of
to-day's paper on the dissertation Of the old
burial ground at Newark, New Jersey, where
rest the remains of the pioneers and Revolu-
tionary heroes Of that place and the State
Americans have been frequently reproached
for want of veneration to parents, institutions
and the sacred scenes of the past, and not
without some reason but these Newark
people, who steal the gravestones of their FORE
fathers for making hog pens, and who use the
sacred spot where the dead lie for prize fights
aEA ssAer vile purposes, lack common decency
even If the growth Of cities calls for the
removal of graveyards outside of their limits
the human ashes that remain in those old
burial places should be respected. The city
authorities of Newark ought, for the credit Of
the place, to put q stop to this desecration.

The July Statement Of the PubIIe Debt.
The Secretary of the Treasury gives us
another months statement Of the public
debt, which is more gratifying than any pre-
ceding one since General Grants administra-
ton came into power. According to Mr..
Boutwell's figures the debt was decreased
in the last month over twenty weight millions.
There is some little confusion in the way the
Secretary makes up the account, and it is said
the actual decrease of the debt is only some
thing over twenty millions for the month but
in any case the statement is very gratifying.
The debt has been reduced since September l,
1866, six months after the war ended, when 1t
reached the highest point, over three hundred
and fifty-seven millions. This is doing very
well within five years, particularly when we
consider that vast amount of floating indebt-
edness arising out of the war has been paid off
in that time. But the revenue is swelling
more and more from month to month, and the
great consideration now is, not how much can
be raised to pay the current expenses OF the
government and good round sum in liquida-
ton of the debt, but how can we reduce the
income. 1t is much too large at present, and
is increasing all the time. We have no doubt
that q hundred millions year could be taken
off the burdens of the people through reducing
taxation and modifying the tariff, and yet a
handsome surplus would remain to be applied
to the payment of the debt. Mr.. Sherman, the
chairman of the Committee on Finance in the
Senate, and the Secretary of the Treasury
seem to fear the proposed reduction of tax
alton and assert that the government would be
left without sufficient income; but there
need be no fear about that The resources
and wonderful growth and prosperity of the
country are such that if hundred millions of
taxes be taken off now it will be necessary at
the end of the year to take off still more. A
continual and moderate decrease of the debt
is all that should be expected at present. In
a few years the country can better afford to
pay it. The great thing now is to reduce tax
alton.
