Respect to the Memory of Chief Jus
tice Chase.
At the opening of the Supreme
Court on the 23d, Attorney General
Willisms presented the resolutions
of the bar, in respect to the memory
of the late Chief-Justice Chase, and
in the course of his remarks said:
"Posterity will know him through
his public services, but we, his asso-
ciates and friends, know and can ap,
preciate his private virtues. Physical
ly, Intellectually and morally, he was
all that chiefjustice ought to be.
Impelled by what has been termed
an intirmity of noble minds, he pur-
sued with untiring zeal his lofty aims
and whatever else may be said of his
aspirations, happily, no one can say
that they marred the excellence or
purity Of his personal character. He
went down to the grave, crowned
with years and many honors, and left
to his children and his country rec
ord of life rich in the worlds opinion
and mems praise, and full of all we
could desire but days"
Associate Justice Clifford, in re-
sponse, reviewed the public career of
the deceased, saying:
"Men find it easy to review others,
but much more difficult to criticize
and review their own acts, and vet.
that is the very summit to which the
upright judge should always be stri-
wing, Pride Of opinion at such times
is too apt to predominant our love of
justice; put it was exactly under
such circumstances that the late
Chief Justice was called upon to re
view and judge one of the most stri-
king and conspicuous of his acts, as
the guardian of the national treasu
ry, at moment when the fate of the
nation, so much depended upon its
correct administration. Great sue
cess attended the financial scheme
when it was adopted, and time had
secured for it an extensive approval.
As the war of the rebellion was vic
toTiously ended, and the national
wealth was rapidly increasing, cir |
cumstances better calculated tofoster
pride of opinion cannot well be ina
gined; but the chief justice who had |
50 creditably met the demands Of du- |
~ in such a variety of other respon-
sible positions, did not hesitate to
apply his best powers to the task Of
reviewing the measure in question,
and finally recorded his opinion, that
it was not justified by the Constitu-
ton. Judges and jurists may dissent
from his final conclusion, and hold,
rs the majority of the justices Of this
Court do, that he was right as Secre-
5ary Of the Treasury, but every gen
erous mind, as il seems to me, should |
honor the candor and selfcontrol
which inspired and induced such ac-
ion" In conclusion he said that
he Justices of this Court had lost 4
evered companion and the public
5reat magistrate and upright servant

THE "Free Religious Association"
which recently met in the hall Of the
Cooper Union, New York, presented
a striking contrast to the Evangeli-
cal Alliance. The audiences were
intelligent but mostly drawn togeth-
er by curiosity to hear the novel
views advanced by the speakers.
Rev. o. B. rockingham delivered a
long address upon the "Religious
Outlook in America," in which he
said that the religious question was
the foremost in modern society, and
that the religious strength of Amer
lea is shared among three divisions
the Catholics of the Church of
Rome, the Protestant sects, includ-
ing the Episcopalians at one extreme
and the Unitarians at the other, and
the Rationalists of all schools,-and
that, In his opinion neither the Cath
ole, the Methodist nor the Congre-
gationalist, was the destined religion
Of America. He said the national
religion would be scientifc-that is,
resting on solid fact instead of trad
Ition; that it would be unsectarian,
a matter of free opinion, vindicating
itself by its intrinsic worth; practi-
cal in the sense of being humane,
part of human society; also, that it
would be free, knowing no distinc-
ton of persons, professions or races.
The Rev. rockingham is evidently
an enthusiast.

Lake Shore Rnn,nrs

Rumor mas been busy for three OF
four days past with tile affairs of the
Lake Shore Railroad, so busy In fact
that it is impossible even in New
York-much less at this distance
to determine just what the facts are.
The story of the New York Sun, the
the substance of which we gave on
Saturday, was printed also in the n.
York Times Of Friday, with very Sc
we're comments upon the former man
agement of the Lake Shore road uu-
der the presidency of Horace f.
Clark. Just as it began to appear
undeniable that the whole damaging
story against Messrs. Clark, Schell
d Bancker was true, the Tribune of
Saturday arrives with an official
statement of the acting Treasurer of
the road, which puts quite different
face upon the matter. We give this
in full elsewhere as the latest appa-
rently authentic intelligence on the
subject. The substance of Acting
Treasurer WOrcester's statement is
that there has been no embezzlement
or defalcstion Of Lake Shore bonds
by an officer of the company or 9th
er person, that the $2,50O,O00 bonds
transferred to Grinnell d Co., had
been regularly sold, and their pro-
ceeds deposited in the treasure of the
Lake Shore road; that the road was
not bankrupt OF in distressed circum-
stances; it had simply planned to
make extensive improvements, with
view to charging its capacity for
business,and therefore needed a good
deal of money at time when money
is hard to raise; that its loan of ST.
100000 from the Union Trust Com
pany, was used in the improvements
Of the road, and would have been re-
paid very soon from the ample earn
ings of the road; and finally that
Commodore Vanderbilt had not as
sumed the obligations Of the road
because the company could not carry
them, but because the Commodore
was anxious to facilitate the reopen
ing of the Union Trust Company,
which could only be done by supply
ing it with a large amount of money,
and he had therefore given the Trust
Company a lift by offering to stand
between the Lake Shore stoekhold-
ers and all loss through the manage
ment OF Clark and Bancker, his sons
in law. This is a more assuring
statement Of the case, and we give it
upon the authority of the Tribune,
as the latest news on the subject
Lake Shore shares, it will be noted,
closed on Saturday at Gl, a decline
Of four cents, in consequence of the
rumors.-CIeUelaRd LeGder.
Since the above statement, Com
modOre Vanderbilt has settled the
obligations Of the Lake Shore road, !
by giving his own individual obliga-
tons to the Trust Company, secured |
by Harlem stock, deposited as col
lateral security. This settles the
matter, and under its influence Lake
Shore shares are improving. Its
splendid revenues will soon place its
stock on the same basis upon which
t stood before the panic.

CANAsToTA, New York, was visited
by a disastrous confagration on the
night of the 26th, which destroyed
three hotels, thirty-two dwellings,
and over forty business places. The
fire was the work of incendiarism,
and the loss is placed at $4,000
with $4,000 insurance. This is the
third disastrous fire which has occur
red there within six months.

STEAM ON THE CAEALs.-A trial of
competing aspirants for the 100000
reward offered by the State Of New
York for a satisfactory solution of
the problem of steam canal naviga-
tion, came off lately between SYRIA
cuse and Utica, on the Erie Canal.
Five boats contested. The most sue
cessful one was the Baxter,a fiat bot
toned boat thatwith 200 tons cargo,
draws feet Sinches of water, and is
propelled by pair Of Baxter engines
of 25-horse power weighing tons,
which drive two three bladed screws
in the stern, A. feet in diameter and
4 feet pitch, revolving with uniform
towards each other. Her
average speed was a fraction over 3
miles per hour. Her owners are san
guine in the belief that with certain
alterations she can be made to com
ply with all the conditions imposed |
by the Legislature.

A PLAN for heating the Erie Ca
nal, so as to keep it from freezing,
in winter, has just been laid before
the Senate Committee on Transpor-
tation. 1t provides for two boilers
and 1000 feet Of steam pipe to the
mile. 1t is estimated to cost two
millions to begin with, and from six
10 nine hundred thousand dollars
per annum to keep it up. The plan
is simple, practical and beautiful;
much more so than turning the Gulf
stream up the Hudson and through
the Canal to Buffalo.
