REVIVAL AMONG OUAKERs. {:

For nearly a century past the Qua
kers, or Society of Friends, have held
what may be termed a neutral ground
among the various religious sects, and
while other religious denominations
have been spreading far and wide
they have remained comparatively
inactive, and the work Of Christiani-
zing the world has been done by other
churches. y hundred years ago, in
England, and Immediately following
the era of George Fox, revival meet
ings were quite common among them,
and the Society was then in its most
vigorous days. Since that date, how
ever, especially in this country, they
have seemed to be constantly losing
ground, and it has been for some time
felt among their leading members
that, as a body, they ought to take a
more active part in evangelical work;
not for purposes of UNCONVENTIONAL
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but to lnfuse new
life into the members of the society.
In the west, particularly, has this
sentiment existed, a large number of
meetings having there been held,
which have been very successful and
have possessed n peculiar interest
from the fact of their being held by a
body hitherto more negative than
positive in its character. In these
meetings they entirely ignore all dis
tinction of class or sect, and take their
stand upon the broad ground of broth
erhood and fellowship which distin-
guishes the denomination. The
movement has been gradually creep
ing eastward, until at the yearly meet
ing held in New York last year it was
resolved that a revival should be at
tempted, a committee being appoint
ed to take the matter in charge and
secure the attendance of eminent
speakers. A series of meetings in
different parts OF New York has
been the resultof this movement with
a considerable addition to the member
ship of the Society, and, it is said,
with equal benefit to other churches.
A meeting ofsimilar character is now
in progress in New York, two ses-
sions being held daily, and a constant
ly increasing interest being manifes-
ted, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES as it seems
with an utter absence of anything
like excited feeling or Incorporate
speaking. A large number of emf
nent speakers from various portions
efthe country are in attendance, and
it is expected TO continue the meet
ings, which are saidto be as unseetari-
an as possible, throughout the winter.

Congressional.

Nothing of very special Importance
from Congress. Senator Sumner has
given notice of intention to offer a
bill to abolish the Internal Revenue
Bureau. The Senate Finance Com
mittee is reported strongly protective.
Sumner refuses TO accept the caucus
assignment to the Craftsmanship of
the Committee on Elections. a bill
has been presented to unite the postal
and telegraph service. Three ena-
bling acts have been prepared, pro-
viding for the admission of Colorado,
Utah and New Mexico, this winter.
The settled sentiment with the Houses
at present seems to be to admit no
more new States until after the appor-
tionment bill is passed, and not then
until it is shown that they have more
than sufficient population to entitle
them to one Representative.
The House General Amnesty Bill
was reported from the committee with
Il lOl us D1ooaSCs
The Senate discussed the Civil Ser
vice Reform question. Mr.. Trumbull
said: 81 think there is a broad and
general impression that there is great
corruption in the public service. The
late exposures in New York have
awakened a public sentiment on this
subject throughout the nation. But
how was it possible for Tammany
to p~erpetrate these frauds? Tt never
would have been possible, except on
this principle of p~artizanship in off
cial positions. Do you suppose that
the men who have been arrested for
robbing the people of New York of
so many millions of dollars, have got
those millions? L doubt not that
they have had to spend many of those
millions to keep themselves in power
year after year. The money has been
paid to persons with political infu-
ence, paid for the packing of conven-
tons and carrying elections by ballot
stufing. Let US separate the federal
government from any such use of its
patronage. Let US have a higherstate
of morals among its officials. Let
US elevate both official integrity and
public authority by insisting that the
public patronage of the country shall
ne more be used for mere selfish and
partizan purposes than the public
moneys in the treasury. Let US do
this, and with the government so
purified, Republican institutions may
be continued. But unless we can
have purity in the administration of
the government, the prediction of
Clay, that the republic would go
down in a despotism worse than that
of Constantinople, sooner or later will
be fulfilled"
Morgan, of the House, offered bill
proposing an amendment to the Con-
stitution TO make n~aturalized citizens
of the United Statee eligible to the
offices of President aud Vice Presi-
dent.

1t is given out by persons who are
supposed to be in the confidence OF
the President, that the observations
in his Message with respect to the
condition of affairs in Cuba, were
made by way of foreshadowing the
change which has been determined
on in the policy of the United States
toward that unhappy country. 1t is
stated that the feeling OF the President
and Cabinent is that we have waited
long and patiently enough for Spain
to re-establish her supremacy over
her reYolted people, and that the
friendly relations existing between
the two countries ought not longer to
be permitted to stand in the way of an
imperative demand that the rights
and privileges of American citizens
in Cuba shall be at once recognized,
and that the Government of Madrid
shall without further hesitation or de-
lay enforce its orders for the restora-
ton to American owners of their con-
fiscated or sequestrated estates, no
matter what the volunteers may or
may not wish to do.

The Chicago Tribune has this per-
sonal paragraph about General Gar
field:
In the Encouragement of the COM
mittees of the House of Representa-
tives the Hon. James A. Garfield, of
Ohio, has been placed at the head of
the Committee on Appropriations. a
committee equal in Importance to the
Committee on Ways and Means.
Some years ago the House divided
the duties of the last named commit
tee, assigning those relating 70 the
expenditure of public money to a new
committee, of which, as we have said,
MI. Garfield has been made chair
man. The position has been earned
by faithful and intelligent service.
The Speaker, in providing an agent
for the prompt and able discharge Of
public business, could have made no
better choice, and but few of equal
merit. Mr.. Garfield brings to his
present important position ripe exper-
fence, thorough familiarity with the
public business, and unquestionable
integrity. He possesses the conf
dence of the country, and to his rigid
scrutiny of the various appropriations
the country must look for effective
protection to the treasury. Against
this committee will be arrayed the
power and importantly of the lobby,
and upon the inflexible integrity OF
the members of this committee de-
ponds the purity of legislation.

4 Party Inference.

The State Journal says truly; The
veasop why the Republican party has
been so strong in the confidence OF
the people is because it has never hes
itated an instantin punishing corrup-
ton and thievery in its own ranks.
In this it has possessed the moral
courage that the Democratic party
never has had, and the result IS that
while the Republican party IS strong
or than ever before, the Democratic
party was never weaker.-Prompt
Justice for thieves has always been the
Republican doctrine, and it cannot
now afford to tolerate corruption in
the organization.
