The first difficulty with the praying
and singing crusaders, which may be
said to have Iisen to the dignity Of a
first-class melee, occurred in Columbus,
Ohio, on the 9th ult., at the saloon and
restaurant of Charles Wagner. 1t ap-
pears that Mr.. Wagner had extended,
through the newspapers, an invitation
to his friends and the public, to partake
of free lunch at his restaurant on the
day named. The crusaders, regarding
themselves as part of the public, in due
time presented themselves at Wagners,
and, extending thanks to that gentle
man for his kind invitation, called for
''crusade water" whereupon Mr.. Wag-
ner told them that they were not inclu-
ded in the invitation,-that their
presence was not desired, and bade them
begone from his premises, which COM
mand they refused to obey. Wagner
then proceeded to enforce it by showing
them ont. In ejectIng them, it Is said
he handled Mrs. Dessellum- rather
roughly-seizing her by the nape of the
neck, and dragging her about like old
shoes. The account says that Mrs. Wag-
ner also took turn at Mrs. Dessellum,
and was engaged in choking that estima-
BILE lady when the police made their ap-
pearance, and put a stop to the perform
ance. It's thought this fracas will bring
about such action upon the part of the
new Board of Police Commissioners as
viii lead to a speedy cessation of crusad-
ing in that city.

For the Press
The Veto of Cheap Interest

On money, is the most fatal blow ever
accidentally or Intentionally suffered by
the Republican party, or by the chief
who delivered it.
The pile driving weight missed its
aim and fell upon the head of the ap-
prentice who was commissioned to guide
its downward force against the initiation
of interest on money.
After long hesitation, which some peo-
pie translate into deliberation, the
weight of the driver came down in such
away as to contract the principal and in
fate the interest-which was already too
high, and then glancing, struck the hero
of Fort Donaldson who is even more
prostrated than the finances he was re-
lied upon to save from the shivering de-
scent of the pile driver.
Logan got the wounds while Grant
reaped the glory of Fort Donaldson.
Now Grant wounds himself while Lo-
gan reaps the glory and thus times will
change, but the end is not yet.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, speaking of the
financial question, says:
1T is plain that the efforts to effect a
compromise which will heal the divis-
ion in the Republican party are begin
ming to have some effect, and it is safe
to say that they will result in the adop-
ton of free banking bill, with the pro-
vision as to the reduction of the green
back circulation to $500, 100000 incor-
porated in it. The principal difficulty
at present in the way of this amicable
adjustment is in the question as to how
fast the greenhacks shall be retired. The
inhationists are anxious that the rate
shall be only 25 per cent. of the Natlon-
al bank currency as fast as issued, while
the anti-infationists are urging that the
retirement shall be at the rate of fifty
per cent. Speaker Blaine, who has been
very active in his exertions to bring
about satisfactory adjustment of the
matter expresses the opinion that it will
be reached by compromise at figures
between these two extremes, say at forty
fler cent ~ ia

The vetoed finance bill was up for

The vetoed finance bill was up for con-
sideration in the Senate on Monday last.
Considerable bitterness of feeling was
manifested by both the friends and foes
of the veto-the plan of the latter being
to secure vote on the question of pass
ing the bill over the veto of the Presi-
dent, without any discussion, which was
successful. The friends of the veto were
anxious to stave off action for a few
days, which was met by a firm determi-
natl on of its opponents to press vote
at once. Though it was not believed
that the bill could be put through over
the veto, its friends evidently desired to
show to the world that they were of the
''same opinion STILL" The vote stood +:
ayes, 34-nays, 80.

Gerald Massey, the English poet, lee
tured in Cincinnati on Tuesday evening,
his subject being Why does not God
kill the Devil?" Mr. Massey is not of
the opinion that God ever created the
devil, but regards him as peculiarly
human production. The following, par
graphs, taken from his lecture, will show
what he thinks of the devil, and why, in
his opinion, God don't kill him:
"We have been amusing ourselves
with a doll-devil, while inside of us, and
outside of lis, and all around about us,
the real devil is working with a most in
fernal activity, and playing the very
devil with this world of ours. And
then we have the blasphemous impu-
dence to make God the author of this
dark shadow of ourselves which we
have shed ON this creation, and assumed
to be an eclipse from another world of
being. .
This preaching of what is falsely call
ed Christianity, to get Sunday sensa-
tson out of it-this plunging of the theo-
logical poker red-hot into your seventh
day dose of spiritual flip to give it
zest-this using of hell-fire as a persua-
der, after the manner of the furnace
heated beneath the turkeys, which per-
suaded the poor things to dance to mus
ic played in quick time-this weekly
whipping of the devil round the stump,
is pretty we'll played out There is
nothing new to be said. Suppose we go
to work and try to do something instead
of making ourselves miserable on Sun
day doing nothing, by putting ourselves
through all the postures and impostures
of the orthodox Sabbatical fashion. Our
orthordox teachers Of the present are
responsible for the playing into the
hands of the devil that was created for
them in the past. False beliefs are al
ways and everywhere opposed to real
and true doing.
The reason, then, why God does not
kill the devil is because man has un-
consciously created all that ia finally
the devil, and here or hereafter has to
consciously destroy his own work. Not
man the individual merely, but man as
part of the great pact of humanity; not
man as mortal only, but as an immortal,
working shoulder to shoulder with i'm
mortals.

The May Aldine is as fresh and beau
tiful as the month it represents; filed to
the brim with choice flowers of art and
literature. The engravings, which in
this superb monthly seem to have reach
ed the highest point of perfection, are
beautiful beyond anything heretofore
seen III an illustrated magazine John
5. Davis opens the number with a full
page picture, "The Dying Hound"
which is one of his best efforts, a strong
work, showing that it is a study from
real life. ]. d. Woodward contributes
three large and spiritedly drawn pic
lures of scenes in Florida, one of the
most beautiful and picturesque States in
the Union. The first picture of the
series is deliciously cool view of the
famous Silver Spring, which boils up
from the earth; the second picture is a
handsome full-page illustration of the
mouth of the St. Johns River showing
the ruins of the old lighthouse, a grove
of palm trees, etc.; the third picture is
wild and dreamy view of a Florida
hummock, one of those strange emerald
islands in the midst Of desert of sands.
Two other handsome and interesting
pictures are ga Retriever" after Deiker,
and "The Bashful Lover" by J. NJ.
Burfeld "Up Springs the Lark" is
the title of a charming little view, ex-
ceedingly appropriate for spring time
John Hows has a full-page picture,
striking for its boldness, called the
"Hemlocks of Otsego," showing a group
of those great trees upon the shores of
that famous lake. HThe New Capitol at
Hartford, Conn, is finely executed
drawing Of the large and ornate build
ing now in process of erection at Hart
ford, at the cost of several millions of |
dollars. The last illustration in this
number is an excellent portrait of Max

in this country. The literary contents
of the May Aldine are of greater vari-
ETY. and excellence than usual.

Pitman's Photography has hitherto
been considered the shortest, most per-
feet and rapid system of Shorthand
Writing. 1t, however, has several and
important defects; being difficult to learn
on account Of its numerous rules, with
an array of exceptions to them, and from
the fact that several sounds have a null
tiplicity Of signs, which are apt to delay
and confuse even an experienced writer,
who has to think which form he should
use when he ought to be free from all
thought except as to what the speaker
is saying. These defects, and the neces-
sity of a more simple and uniform sys-
TEN, have led to the perfection Of a new
system known as Edeography derived
from two Greek words meaning pleasant
writing,) which is free from all irregu-
larities, and is much easier and thirty
per cent. shorter than Pitman's. The
whole principle of this new art may be
acquired in Il few days, and months
practice of one hour daily in reading
and writing will enable any one to use
it with facility. The manual of Edeo-
graphy'' is published by Messrs. T. w.
Evans q Co., of Philadelphia, respon-
sible firm, who will promptly fulfill the
offer they make in cur advertising COL

ELECTION OF PREsIDENT.-A change
in the mode OF electing the President
and Wee President has been for some
time under consideration by the Senate
Committee of Privileges and Elections.
1t is understood that that committee
have agreed upon their report, which is
substantially the plan suggested by SEN
ator Morton. The proposition is to
divide each State into electoral districts,
corresponding with the Congressional
districts. The people will vote direct
for President, and the candidate in 4
districl having the highest number Of
popular votes will be given one vote for
that district Each State is TO have two
votes lat large" which are to be given
to the candidate having the highest pop
ular vote in the State. All of these
votes are to be counted at Washington,
and the candidate having majority
will be elected President. \ similar
course is proposed for the choice of the
Vice President, and 4 tribunal is created
for the decision of "all questions arising
out of an election for the Office of Presi-
dent and Vice President" The reform
chiefly secured by the proposed change
is the abolition of the electoral Col
leges' in the separate States.
