No extraordinary demonstrations were n1ade
in any Of tho Chicago pulpits yesterday; 1t was
a dull Sunday. DR.. Locke, Of Grace Episcopal
Church, proachod OIL Horesy and the usos Of
hercsy. trials. Flo mado m argument for tho
right Of every Church to expel from it's ministry
men who do not hold, or hold fceb1y, tic doc
trines which 1t was organized to teach. No.
body has gainsaid this right. DR.. Ryder, Of St.
Paul's Unitarian Church, discussed Prcsby-
torianism, aud found It to be very un-
satisfactory and unworthy creed for I man
Of Prof. Swing'a Dimensions to hold.
Prof. Swing hi'nBolt spoke Of the Decline
Of Theology. It has long been notorious that Ae
knows little. and cares less, about theology as
science, and 1t appears from tho sermon Of yes-
terday that ho haa not soized in a doci1o spirit
tho recent opportunities for theological inBtruc-
tion which have boon thrust upon him. An
other ono Of yesterday sermons that observes
mention is that Of tho Roy. Father TORY, Of st.
Patricks Catholic Church. His thome was Gods
loyo for man, and his conclusion WAS that dod's
mercy is ine1hauatiLo. Father Terry's views
of Divine sanctions arc understood to
DO at variance With those Of so1ne Of
the leading minds in hts Church. The
Rev. Mr.. Goodspeea preaohed on Church
Quarrols, tho reference being to the MCCARTHY
oase. fortunately for tho preacher, his share in
TINT unwholesome trial was not 30 great that no
can be considered supreme authority In the

In the sunny south there is not a
more ferocious publication than The
Shreveport Times. 1t, is little, but
terrible as an army with banners, OF
as the most vicious pirate that ever
dyed the waves of the sea with
blood. 1t is nothing if not savage.
1t drinks human blood and hungers
after human hearts continually.
.If," it shrieks in recent issue, "lf
Smith, and Twitchell, Johnson, and
TYLER, and Heating, and Levisee are
counted in over their democratic OPP
popents. then let Smith, Twitchell,
johnson, Tyler, Heating and Levi
see be killed" 1t weakly admits
that human life. may be precious,
but makes amends for this conces
sion to humanity by ferociously as
serting that human life isn't hun
dredth part so precious as the right
of a democrat to hold office. The
democratic candidates must be count
ed in, If it costs the lives OF all the
carpet baggers, scalawags, and ne
Croes in Louisiana. If the savage
little publication in Shreveport did
but know it, its blood-thirsty shrek
ings are turned to most excellent ac-
count by its political adversaries;
and if a tenth part of the blood for
which it clamors should be spilled,
the political consequences would
not be at all gratifying to the party of
which it processes to be the mouth
piece.

SECRETARY BRIsTow has wisely
determined to curb the propensity
of the bureau officers in the Treas
urv department to ride financial
hobby in their annual reports, no
matter what antagonistic views
their superior officer may advocate.
To this end he has directed that all
reports of bureau officers be sub
mitted to him for approval. His
first curb was placed on Treasurer
Spinner, whose views in favor OF
an elastic-or unlimited-currency
were recently epitomized in dis
patch to the TIMES. Mr.. Bristow
has drawn his official pen across
the portion of Mr.. Spinner's report
dealing with the subject, and the
official copy of the report appears
wholly barren of Spinner's elastic
ideas. The same trimming process
is to be applied to other department
reports subordinate to the secre-
tary, so that there shall be no views
expressed antagonistic to those ex-
pressed by the secretary himself.
As he is in accord with the presi-
dent, favoring an early resumption
of specie payments, we may expect
that a, strong pressure will be
brought to bear upon congress IN
the direction of an honest currency
for all American citizens.
VIRGINIA Posi- OFFICE,-We had
occasion. to visit the Post-office in
Virginia City the other day, and
found Judge Atkinson ready to show
us through the establishment. There
are three clerks in the office, who
appear to understand their business
perfectly. Every appointment is
arranged with an eye, to. expediting
business with the least possible ex-
pense to the Government. We think
all the talk concerning the office
perfectly groundless. The Judge
seems to take matters perfectly easy,
as he should doGunder the circum-
stances. The only time that he got
mad was when a certain paper failed
to give him his regular notice-it not
being published on Thanksgiving
Day. It is evident that the head of
the office does not fear humiliation
at the hands Of the Democratic press
