EX-Brothcr jon Howard says, on occG-
sion OF Brother Ton SHEARNAN's reelection as
clerk 81 Plymouth Church, that "he IL faithful,
snd always but his discretion We never
believed in" Yet Brother SHEAHNAH b. lIEECH-
ER's principal adviser and has to make ~ with
tears for what be lacks In point Of discretion.
However, NEECHER wants none but indi-creet
advisers al present; for every discreet man
would aivisc him to confess the awful rims Of
adultery aud perjury Of which he Is guilty, and
20 clear his soul II the terrific burdens now
piled upon II. As long a. he sails upon his pres
cut tack iudiscretion is tho only advice he en-
think Of taking.

II may be rem embcrcd that few weeks
ago GOV On tNBFRIAIN and Treasurer AUpOzt
caused tie announcement to be made thro.-h
the press that the State would not repudiate
the tunds issued In exchange f,r the coupons
when eA- Treasurer pAKEEa was tfie1 for steal
lug. a Columbia correspondent su-gests that
there are weiGhty reasons which would prevent
the carpet-bag Ring from countenancing any
such measure. Ia tue suit against PARKER for
the recovery Of the value OF the stolen coupons,
the principal wituess for the Government swoie
that when the coupons were distracted they
were divided IN lots, one hcing set apart for
SCOTT. another for PARKFR. another for kIMP-
TON. another for NEAGLE, and another for
CHaMBrRI.AIS, the present reform Governors
share being shD,oOo. This witness wa- en-
ployee OF the TUon-Hs1dld, GOV. CHAMBER-
IAis's organ, and he could hardly be suspected
Of q desire to injure that official. Indeed, he
took pains 70 say that he did not know that
CHANBIuLAIS had ever received his share {;
but nobody doubts that tue witness told the
truth about the division OF the plundcr. 1t Will
readily be seen that TO repudiate the bonds
given for these coupons might lead to very en-
barrassinR results. 1T the Ring stili hold them,
they would simply be depicting their own
pockets while n they have sold them, their
position would be eth worse, for innocent
holders would naturally feel inuisposed To lose
their iuvastment, such "a IL is. aud would have
uttle diflcuity IN tracing the bonds 20 tho indi-
vdual- VITO funded the stolen coupons. Under
those circumstance we can readily understand
that there Is no danger OF tho bonds In qu'sti pa
being fcpudiated 50 long 40 the present state
Government remains In power.
