A CORRESPONDENT writing from this
place to the Toledo Blade in reference to
the recent ministerial installation, says:
On Tuesday last an ecclesiastical coun-
ell was held at Findlay, Hancock county,
o., to install as pastor of the Congrega-
tional Church of that place the Rev.
HenIy ID. kurz. formerly of the Evan.
gelical Lutheran Church in Pennsylva
MIA. The council met at the Church at
2:30P. NJ, and after due formalities and
a lengthy examination of the candidate,
it was resolved that we proceed with the
installation exercises at =. NJ, and the
Rev. Ira c. Billman, of the Washington
Street Congregational Church, Toled,
was appointed to preacn the sermon and
offer the installing prayer. The Rev.
II. \. Burton, of the Congregational
Church, Sandusky, to deliver the charge
to the pastor, and the Rev. John g.
Fraser, of the Congregational Church,
East Toledo, to offer the fellowship of
the churches and deliver the charge to
the people. A large congregation gath
cred in the evening to listen to the exer-
cises, which were of a high order and
extremely interesting. Our young friend
comes to this people with youthful vigor
and strength, anc above all, seems en-
dued with meekness and grace, eminent
ly fitting him for the labors he has as
sumed The short time he has been
with this church has endeared him to
the hearts of the people, and it is hoped,
by the blessing of God, a bountiful har
vest may be gathered among this people.
1t was pleasing feature of the occasion
that the pastors OF the other eAusches of
different denominations were present
and participated in the exercises of the
evening. We trust the good fellowship
thus begun will continue to abide with
them. SCRIBE.

WHAT WILL THEY Do?

The isrge Democratic majority in the
Lower House of Congress, soon to assem-
bic, will give that party an opportunity
to offer some remedy for the many ills
with which they have persistently insist
ed the country is afflicted 1t is no ex-
cuse that the Senate and Executive are
of the opposite political faith, as this VIII
not. and should not, prevent them from
offering to the country some panacea
for the many ills which Democratic i'm
aeination has coniured up as resting
upon tire nation. There is not the least
doubt but that the Democracy will make
all the party capital possible out OF the
circumstance of their partial restoration
to power in the nation. Hence, we can
expect but little from the present House,
except bitter partizan crusade against
the Republican party. Whenever there
is the least chance TO Investigate Re
publican official, it will be joyfully IN
proved. Whenever a blow can be struck
at Republican policy it will be DONE re-
eardIess of its effect upon the country.
The coed of the Democratic party VIII
be the ''open sesame that will control
the legislation of the House this winter.

THE case of young CHERRY, the post
Office clerk accused of purloining letters
from the mail at Sandusky City, is caus-
ing much excitement in that locality, as
the young man has heretofore borne ALI
excellent character, and has a widowed
mother and a sister wholly dependent
upon his salary for their support. The
young man had preliminary axamina-
ton before u. s. Commissioners Cogswell.
of Sandusky City, and was discharged,
the evidence adduced not being deemed
sufficient to hold him. He was irnmedi-
ately re arrested by Special Agent of
the Post-Ofiice Department, upon war
rant issued by US. Commissioner White,
of Cleveland, taken to that city, where
he gave bail in the sum OF $1,000 for his
appearance for trial. Some prominent
business men of the city, as we learn
from the Register, are interesting them
selves in the young mans behalf, and the
excitement is intense We trust that the
whole matter will be sifted TO tile bot
tom. and the guilty party discovered and
punished

CARL ScHURz is of the opinion that

direction.
Chief Justice WAITE has written a

Democratic honesty(D A recount of
the ballot boxes in Hamilton County,
shows that Republican candidate for

agent on any vessel about TO sail-fCf
vessels are always short of men, and all
sorts of Infamous tricks are put into use
to get them-aud Jack comes TO his
senses some morning to find himself in
the forecastle OF an outward bound ship,
which is being towed down the bay, and
out through the narrows where she is
cast off by tie tug g-boat, and must hoist
sail and away. He has no knowledge OF
how he got there. He was dragged on
board drunk. He was drunk when iie
signed his name or made his mark, to
the ships papers; drunk when he signed
an order 10 bis landlord to obtain his
a4ya,.ce pay, and is now slowly and stu
pidly coming tc consciousness. The first
mate now enters the forecastIe. He is
armed with brass knuckles or a marlin
spike. The second mate il with him,
also armed and so is the steward and
PERHAPS the captain. Then ensues
scene the Ike of which is hardly seen
now that the horrors of the slave
ship has been abolished by indignant
Christendom. These poor drunken sail
ors, stupified, and helpless from their
long debauch, are driven aloft with hor-
ribIe curses and blows, and actually
compelled to do their duty by main
force.
The voyage made, they leave the ship
to go through the same experience again,
and over and over, until swallowed up
by the sea. This is no fancy sketch or
! exceptional case; this is the life the
sailor is used to; indeed, he knows no
other, and, apparently, desires no other.
Once in a while some horrible case of
| brutality on the part of a sea-captain
gets into the courts and the newspapers,
| but it is only once in while, for no
sailor would think of taking exceptions
to the treatment / have described; it is
no more than the custom Of the sea.
Let your son steal hogs, deal at faro,
or drive horses on the towpath of the
Erie canal, and do you infiict on him
anything short of murder to keep him
