A Significant Taunt.

The Grant journals and fol-
lowers. like their master, have
implicit faith in the powerwhich
the administration wields by
means Of its official patronage.
The great army of office-hold-
crs are not only to be kept
steadfast by the tenure of their
positions, but the intimation is
held out to them that the pee
pie must be won over to the
support of Grant for re-elec-
tion, by a free use Of the mon
ey in the Golfers Of the govern
ment. The strength which
centres in the government Off
Gals, with all the arguments
addressed to their cupidity and
fears, and the vast amount Of
money which can be command
ed for electioneering purposes,
is the main reliance of Grant
and his friends /; and so conf
dent are they Of success through
these appliances that they have
become boastful Of it and taunt
their opponents with poverty
ofmeans for a political canvass.
The New York Z INES, the or
gan of Grant, in speaking of
the nomination and prospects
Of Horace Greeley for election,
manifests its characteristic bad
taste in the following sneers
"But the great question is
"who is going to furnish the
money to canvass Mr.. Greeley
1t will cost 100000 to cam
vass the Union New Yoik
State alone cannot be canvassed

dy and cannot help, so where is

Cumberland Presbyterian
General Assembly.

The session just closed at Ev-
ansville, Indiana, was largely at
tended, and the best spirit ANNA
ted the members. The statistics
of the closing year show a healthy
increase of members. Our friends
Rev. j. B. Tlgert and Elder C. A.
Fulton were in attendance from
Tennessee Presbytery. The next
session is to be held in Hunts
vile, Ala. A report was made
on the overture from the Presby-
terry of Lebannn as to dancing, the
committee to which it had been
referred recommending that Chris
tians take no part in the dance,
but holding that the Assembly
can do no more than has been
doL e-eXhort all members to re-
train from the dance.
The first paragraph Of the re-
port was adopted. m
On motion to recommit the
second paragraph to the commit
/ tee, some discussion ensued.
Elder Frizzell explained some
! of the difficulties which confron-
/ ted the committee in considering
the subject of dancing, and asked
that if the Assembly should re.
commit the report, it designate
what it desired the committee 10
say.
DIR. Squier considered the ques-
ton of amusements one of the
most difficult with which the
church and the ministery had to
contend. He objected to the
dance-preached against it, and
exhorted his people to condemn
it. But when young lady of
his congregation said to him,
Brother Squier, | cannot feel
that l am doing wrong when |
dance in the parlor, to the music
ofthe piano, with personalfriends, p"
he was not prepared 10 convince
that young lady by sensational
effort that she is wrong. He did
not believe the Assembly had the
right 10 go further than to exhort
and entreat, and then leave the
matter with the conscience.
The second paragraph of the
report was then adopted.
