The House has at length its own
sweet will, having passed the May
nard bill, stripped Of all its valuable
parts, and after it the Senate bill. The
Maynard bill repoal3 all limits upon
the amount Of banli-note circulation.
The Senate bill imposes new limit
of $4OO,O00,O00. The Maynard bill
compels the banks to maintain re-
demption machinery and to keep their
reserves at home. the Senate bill per-
mts one-fourth Of the reserves to be
held "out." The Senate bill has now
passed both houses and goes to the
president, while the Maynard bill will
probably be left on the table of the
Senate, or he indefinitely postponed
in that body. AS to The bill which
has now passed Congress, it really
threatens only a slight and slow inha-
ton, as we pointed out some time AFRO.

Rev Mr. Murray has written avery long
letter to the Park Street church Of Bos-
ton, explaining why he asks an associate
pastor,-the. reasons, briefly being that
the work is more than one man can posi-
bly, do, and that the church ''must secure
an older and wiser man than the present
pastor" to represent it in councils and
other denOminational gatherings, ,--oier-
ing to relinquish his own salary, or such
part as may be necessary, if the church
feel any difficulty about paying two pas
tors, and closing rs follows: "To this city
God called me- and here propose to re-
main until death overtakes me, or age
renders me unfit for service, preaching
the gospel of Christ III the faith OF the
fathers, as he who shapes all things, and
appoints his ways unto man, shall open to
me an opportunity; but without assistance
in the pastoral Office and a colleague in the
pulpit cannot remain your pastor"

Rev Dir Lord of Montpelier writes
The Springfield Republican that, so
far from having "denounced' the re-
cent Brooklyn council ''as the device
of Beecher's enemies" )" in bis last Sun
day sermon, be referred to that body
as ''regularly assembled, composed Of
the representative men Of the denom-
ination, its discussions marked by
eminent ability and eloquonce, and its
results characterized 10y surprising
wisdom" Upon this latter point Dr.
Lord said: Nv iser, perhaps, than II
knew, it made Il soft bed OF Congrega-
tional rulings, upon which the earnest
demonstrating churches dropped easi-
ly from their dizzy altitude and gave
its own right hand, with much shy
ness and many hopes. to the church
that had offended" AS to the scall-
dal DR. Lord made these striking re-
marks: II will say nothing of that
stationary scandal, never proved to
have been affirmed, never denied to
have been uttered, which the dcvilish
adroituess Of q single man holds by
hair over the head OF the most remark

The Safe Burglary Case.

The protracted safe burglary case In Wash

most obscure aud least important Of the par
ties indicted and disagreement OF the jury
as 10 the other two, rendering new thai as 10
them necessary, unless the further prosecution
of the case should be abandoned. Williams IS
acquitted; Harrington and Whitley are not.

however, a resolution was adopted that this
spirited method Of arriving at the truth should

interest aud true policy of the Southern people
to offer every inducement in their power to
Northern manufacturers to bring their capital
