CLERICAL VILLAINY.-From the Baltimore
tor of Trinity NJ. E. Church South, ofthat city,
has taken fight to Cincinnati. The reverend
gentleman, it seems, took an undue advantage
of some of the female members ofhis flock, and
fearing the righteous indignation of the COM
munity, he fed as soon as the evidence of his
villainy developed itself. Huston has been in
the ministry for thirty years, and being man
of pleasant address and agreeable presence,
and to all appearances an exemplary follower
of his Master, his criminal conduct escaped
detection until it manifested itself in the ruin
ana d1sgrace he brought upon helpless and
confding pupil of his Sabbath School.
DR.. Huston was formerly a resident of Gin
cinnati, and the Gazette of that city denies
that he ran away from Baltimore, and says:
"He came to this city [Cincinnatil in accor-
dance with previous arrangement, to meet his
family, and is now suffering from sickness at
the house of one of his friends. He is a native
of Cincinnati, and has many relatives and a
large circle of friends here, and if he desired to
escape the penalty of the alleged crime, this is
the last place in the world he would be likely
to fee to. We are informed that DR.. Huston
solemnly declares his innocence, and in this
his friends fully believe him to be sincere. 1t
is hard, of course, for any man to prove mega
tive, but no one would convict him upon the
testimony. We are further authorized TO say
that DIR. Huston will return to Baltimore as
soon as his health will permit
The Cincinnati newspapers publish the fol-
lowing from DIR. Huston, which some of them
append to long extracts from the Baltimore
journals about the affair
A Card.-Will the conductors of newspapers
give me space to denounce as UNANIMOUSLY false
and slanderous in every particular and in
every sense the shocking statement contained
in a note which appeared in an evening journal
of Baltimore about me, and to ask a suspension
of public opinion till an investigation can be
had The loss of my voice, and the failing
health of member of my family, had de-
termined me long ago to leave Baltimore

BISMARCK AND FRANCE. Things seem to be in
an unsettled condition 10 unhappy France JUS.
now there is some agitation looking to the dis
rupton of the Republic and the establishment
of some other spasmodic system Of rule. This
would unsettle the treaty of peace between that
country and Germany and jeopardize the fruits
of the victories gained by the genius of Bismarck
and the strategy of Moltke, md bring dread
chaos again to the relations between these two
powers. In view of this the sagacious Prince
Bismarck is losing no opportunity TO forestall
any action or event that has tendency to work
ont any such result. He is strengthening every
fertilization along the line of the new boundary
of France. He is placing his hand more firmly
on her throat in consequence OF this new aspect
of affairs, and if she accomplish any thing by a
new ont break or a fresh revolution of French
notions about government, it will be in spite OF
the farseeing, llcomprehending intellect OF
Bismarck and his advisers The interest OF
France to-day lies in her undisturbed acquies-
cence in the affairs that surround her, unpleasant
and singing as they may be TO the fiery and
cbivarous French disposition

UNWORTHY "A committee of investigation APP
pointed by the United States Senate have pre-
pared report concerning the election of United
States Senators for the State of Kansas The re-
ports s forth that Senator Pomeroy of that
State was elected in 1867 by fraudulent proceed
ings, obtaining the aid of newspaper editors, the
use of the Kansas Pacific Railroad and other
means of corruption. The same unworthy prac-
tice is alleged of Senator Caldwell in 1871. The
charge against him alleges that his election cost
him $50,
This is disreputable affair for the Senate and
the Republican party, and the party in that
branch OF our National Legislature owes it to
the country, TO its constituency and to itself to
lay the whole matter bare to the public gaze and
expel these unworthy members, if the charges
alleged against them sustained by the proof.
