NIX. IIL1ONO ChODO-EAd hINd IION.
1t is too late to think of checking the pub
LEGATION of authentic evidence in the case of
the Plymouth Church investigation. 1t has
assumed too much Importance for us now
even to consider the question as to the expe-
dlency of the inquiry or the effects to result
from the publication of testimony. Not only
justice to our readers but justice also to the
parties involved demands that no material
evidence shall now be suppressed so long as
the deplorable controversy lasts. Mr..
TitOn's elaborate statement, in which he
endeavOred to ruin at one blow his
wife and his PASTOR was printed
by his friend and amanuensis, if not
with his connivance, at least in his interest, as
avowed by Mr.. Maverick. The Committee
have therefore thought it just and proper to
give TO the public the record of Mr.. TiltOn
under the cross examination to which he was
subjected in consequence of this statement
The two documents must be read together, by
any one who wishes either to obtain a clear
idea Of this remarkable case, or OF the singu-
lar man whose abnormal jealousy and revenge
have set in motion this miserable tempest OF
unwhOlesOme rlImOr.

examined this evapne. aud reserve (0g tullcr

they have not. They. however, do not sell
their bonds through Syndicates, while we do.
Still, it is singular that our bonds should have
fallen one per cent.

The quotation given for all the above is
the per cent of the real par, and includes in
the case of the United States one per cent of
accrued interest. We say it is singular that
French and Russian stocks should have risen
about five per cent in the six months, and
United States bonds but one per cent. Whether
powerful Syndicates had anything to do
with it we cannot tell. On the 9Th of May
the prices of the above-quoted stocks COM
pared as follows with their prices on the 9th
of January:

It seems that the Conservatives are not yet
quite sure of their victory. So many of their
number dispersed the other day to their cOun-

of Messrs. Malleville and Duval. 1t is scarcely
possible that this should happen, but the mere

The Spanish Government seems inclinedsat
last TO call the Government of Marshal Mac
Mahon to account for the connivance and
assistance afforded to the Carlists on the
French frontier. 1t may be that Lord Russelrs
speech iu the House of Lords on Friday last
has had something to do toward encouraging
The Cabinet of SerranO in this demonstration
The fact is undeniable that the French au-
thorties have been guilty of culpable laxity
in allowing the organization of Carlist expe-
ditious upon their soil, and it is hard to resist
the conclusion that sympathy with monarch
1cal party against so-called republicans has
been their motive.

The Commissioner Of Indian Affairs
proposes novel plan for the manage
ment of the affairs of the Indian Bur
eau. Tie puts down in his recent report
the total number of vagrant Indians
who are naturally disposed to make
trouble at $4,000 He says the employ
ment Of troops to keep these in subjee-
tion destroys the crops and stock Of the
peaceably disposed Indians and thus en-
RACES them and incites them to disorder.
Ills plan is to withdraw the military al
together, and employ posse Of friendly
Indians to keep the others in subjeciion,
which, he thinks, can easily be done
The government would gladly adopt
such a measure il it could be carried out
successfully but there would hardly be
many applicants for positions ON the In
dian Bureau until the feasibility Of the
plan could be practically demonstrated

EXPATRIATIoN.

l have again to call the attention of
Congress to the unsatisfactory condition
of the existing laws with reference to
expatriation and the election of nation
ity. Formerly amid conflicting opin-
ions and decisions it was difficult to ex-
actly determine how far the doctrine of
personal allegiance was applicable to cit
izens of the United States. Congress, by
the act of the 9th of July, 1868, assert
ed the abstract right of expatriation as
fundamental principle of this Govern
ment. Notwithstanding such assertion,
and the necessity of the frequent appli-
cation of the principle, no legislation
has been had defining what acts or for
malities shall work expatriation, or
when a citizen shall be deemed to have
renounced or to have lost his citizen
ship. The Importance of such defini-
ton is obvious. The representatives of
the United States in foreign countries
are continually called upon to lend their
aid and the protection of the United
States to persons concerning the good
faith or the reality of whose eitizenship
there is at least great question. In some

Location of the National Grange.

Colmans Rural World of Saturday last
opens the agitation of the subject OF the
selection of st. Louis as the national head
quarters of the Farmers Grange. 1t
says:
In all probability this question will
UP for consideration before the annual
meeting of the National Grange, which will
be held in St Louis, commencing on the
first w Wednesday in February next. Nine
tenths of the members of the order are west
of the Ohio river. Three-fifths OF the order
are west of the Mississippi river. Is there
any necessity for the Offices of the National
Grange to be located at Washington City Z
Is it the most proper place for it2 Would
not a more central locality be preferable ?
As this is a movement of farmers, would
not some point in the very heart of the
richest agricultural region in America be
the most suitable place to locate the ma
tional offices Of the order? The order is
now in its infancy. Buildings will have tc
be erected or prepared tor the vast inter
ests of the order. If another year rolls
around, these buildings will have beer
erected or prepared, and then will come
the cry, 1t is too expensive to make ths
change. That is what is said now abou

the change of the location of the Offices Of
the National Grange is ever to be made.
now is the time.
We believe St Louis is the proper loca-
ton for the Offices of the National Grange.
1t is central, easy of access for the entire
West and Northwest, and would suit the
people of the South far better than Wash
ington city. A large fund is accommodating.
1t mu st not be misappropriated. IF more
has been or shall be received than is re
uuired by the National Grange, it should
be returned to the oranges that contribu-
ted it. We hope the masters of the State
Oranges who compose the members of the
National Grange will carefully consider all
these matters, and act wisely and well.
Now is the time to make the permanent
location. 1t can be done with less expense
and with greater benefits than it can ever
be done again.
