The remarks Of Rev. Clement But
Ter, D. D, Of Philadelphia, at the
Church Congress Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, Wednesday last,
on the public school question, laid
down these positions:
!. The perfunctory reading of the
Bible In the schools by anybody who
may happen to be the teacher, is a
farce and dissertation, and Christians
should have it cease. .f@ y.
2. Only by making the public
schools purely secular can we place
them on foundation where we can
defend them, and take away all plaus-
ibility from the claims for the public
money for Roman and other secfarian
schools.
3. This would make the Churches
feel anew and moro deeply their duty
Of the religious education Of the chill
dren. He said that thousands of
Christians feel that this is the right
thing to do, but are unwilling to con-
cede 1t, because it would seem like q
concession to Roman dictation.

New developments continue to oc-
cur from day to day in the whisky
business, as the Government, through
the Courts, continues to enclose the
culprits In the vice Of the law. Tho
rogues, as fast as they get a dose Of
fine and imprisonment, are inclined
to divulge all they know and impli-
cate others. Misery loves company.
What all such pa.ties may disclose Of
others, is, however, to be closely and
carefully scrutinized, as It comes from
tainted, unreliable source. The
man who only tells Of rascality after
he has been housed within strong
walls and bars, under sentence of the
law, is dirty fountain from which
to expect the truth. He may, in his
disclosures, only seek to blacken the
character Of good men, who have been
instrumental In Furnishing him. t

On last Sabbath Henry Ward
Beechcr preached upon the subject
sHeroism Of silence" lie frequently
referred to his great personal troubles
and tho scene is represented as very
pathetic in which speaker and audi
encc were moved to tears. He called
upon his Church to make q perpetual
covenant with him, to keep, hence
forth, perpetual silence and reply to
no accusation. The report of the
meeting among other things relates
the following:

It Is true though whatever we may
say Of the seeming impracticable char

largely Republicans in politics. 1t
follows, therefore, that the result in

paper has, in any manner, done other

Gen. II had taken the least part in

The fact is, Gen. II, has kept entire

will add, as highly proper, here, that
Gen. Hedrick and the Secretary Of

their friendship having arisen from
their long association together as
Colonel and Lieutenant Colonel Of
the 10th Iowa Regiment. This long,
intimate association as brother Off
