bludgeon will realize the standard we have
cherished for the last eighteen or nineteen
centuries
Upon reading the above rather complex
report we, in common with the Times and
large number of other intelligent persons,
supposed there had been some such scene
as the following in one of our churches:
The minister had preached an earnest ser
mon, in which he handled the supposed
vices Of some of his congregation without
gloves. A member of the church took ex-
ception to being talked to in such a man
ner, and visited the vestry after service
and assaulted the holy man. There was
hand to hand conflict between the shep-
herd and the sheep, in which the latter
was worsted. We furthermore derived
from the closing remarks that the Picay-
uae doubts whether conversions achieved
by the bludgeon" will ''realize the stand
ard" established by modern theologians.
In short, we made the mistake of suppos-
ing that the Picayune was lecturing the
assaulted shepherd because he would not
stand still and let the sheep pumnel him.
1t is assuring to be told now that there is
no foundation for such sensation. There
was no assault, no conflict of any sort,
and if there had been the Picayune would
not have appeared as the apologist for the
pugnacious sheep. We hope the Times
and the Washington Republican will take
notice Of the amended answer that has
been filed. And further, We hope that
hereafter, when the Picaytuae INDUCES in
fancy upon serious matters it will put
plain mark upon such statements as are
utterly unfounded," so that the reading
public may avoid mistakes.
We knew on Saturday that the Plea.
ya1ae's statement was nearly unfounded;
that the difficulty limited at did not occur
on Sunday, after service, but on Wednes-
day; that the immediate cause of the as
sault was not what was said in any sermon,
and that the minister did not engage in
physical scutfie nor eject his visitor by
force. We did nothing but comment upon
The case exactly as the Picayu,ae presented
It, to show that the paper is ready to wink |
1t all outrage perpetrated in a church,
upon a minister from the North, who be- |
ongs to religious denomination that is |
aot notorious for being aggressive and vim
iictive. Had such disgraceful assault
occurred in some other of our churches,
he same journal would not have dared to
.reat it with such indecent .evity.

THE GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL.

THE GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL.
This important act will be found pub
| lished in full in another column. Its ap-
pea rance in authoritative shape will, of
course, clear away the mystery that has
| surro unded it since the fifth of March, and
afford everybody an opportunityto discuss
it intelligently. A close inspection shows
that there has been some pretence of re-
duction in certain items, and at the same
time an inordinate increase in others. It
IS impossible to foot up the total, as some
Of the items Of expenditure are indei-
mite in amount, while few are so
wordad as to include only $50 much
there of as may be necessary" The appro-
priat ions for contingent expenses of the
Yari Gus State officers have not been very
materially cut down, while the lawyers
come in for sum exceeding fifty thous-
and dol lars, exclusive of the legitimate
appropriation for the Attorney General
and his legal assistant. There appears to
have been reduction in the total amount
of the appropriation, but as many of the
items are indeterminate, instead of being
specific, we are unable to hazard a posi-
tive opinion on this point That is, We
find it difficult to say how much of re-
DUCT on there will be. though it appears
fro N hasty examination to be consider
able. There are. however, very many
items amenable to criticism, and which
will be thrown up to the Republican
party between now and the day of cleo
ton. Thus, while we are glad to see in
the act concession to reform, we are
bound to regret seeming want of proper
iiscri mination in the items. The result
shows that we need more financiers and
fewer politicians in the General Assembly,
and especially on the appropriation COM
mittee.

not be regarded as law, even though the
Governor was induced by men whom he
thought above deception to sign it.
TIL at the Governor was deceived as to
the character of the bill seems to be most
certain. 1t is therefore to be hoped that
he was also deceived as to the passage OF
the bill through the Legislature, as that
fact will deprive class of men of the in
ended benefits of class legislation OBJ
tanned in a surreptisous manner.
When it is remembered that these men
have been among the most active in de-
no uncing Republican rule in this State,
and particularly the present State govern
ment, it is well to show them up in their
true C olors, in order that the people may
know what kind of legislation would
prevail if such men should ever again get

q boy at Cambridge there was not boat
owned at Harvard. A student in the class
two years before him owned the first boat,
and was "hauled up by the faculty there
for. He pleaded that he was not aware OF
any obligation against it in the college laws.
The college officer, however. showed him .
rule that mo student shall be permitted to
keep domestic animal without consent OF
the faculty. and argued that boat came
within the restriction.
