JUDGE DICK RIsING's head is level on
the divorce question. The case Of
Coddington VS. Coddington was before
him. In rendering his decision 50 We
quote from the Ctroniciel, he remarked
that 1.-The evidence showed some mis-
behavior on the part Of the wife. She
wanted to 60 out somewhere contrary to
her husbands wishes. He insisted upon
her remaining in their room, and she as
strenuously insisted upon leaving. A
pistol was laying upon the table, and he
took it up, saying he would make her
stay in the room or he world kill her.
She stayed. The husband did not use
the pistol further. With that exception
the married life of the pair ought to
have been a happy one. The husband
has provided well for lhe wife, kept her
we'll dressed. and furnished her with a
servant. and l do not think this one act,
although it may be strictly termed
cruelty, can be deemed a justification Of
divorce"
FIRE MATTEls.-The Town Trustees
having repealed the Fire Ordinance re-
Gently passed and recommended the
appointment Of committee Of three
from each fire company for the purpose
OF drafting new fire ordinance, the
several companies met at their respective
engine houses last evening for the pur-
pose of considering the proposition.
The Swift Company declined to appoint
a committee. The Curys appointed
Messrs. Muller, Parkinson and Rinkle.
The Warrens appointed Messrs. Chedic,
Stern and Harvey. As an item of much
interest to our citizens We would state
that the Swift Company have on the
way 500 feet Of hose, which will make,
with that already on hand. 1000 feet of
hose for that engine-suficient, we
should judge. for any emergency.
ABE EDGINGIoN was reported dying
yesterday. He is at Sacramento. No
man ever went to the grave more gener-
ally respected than Abe Edgington.
HR. M1aHEIs. editor Of the APPEAL,
went to San Francisco last night. He
expects to be gone about i've or six days
only.

Her dying request is very touching.

ONE WOULD SUPPOSE from reading
what the Virginia Chronicle has 10 say
below that it is Of the opinion that when
George TuAy travel. by rail he ought to
take weigh train and be inspected at
the scales. Anyhow, that paper tells
the following story Of hair breadth
'scapes in Tufy's career. The morning
train, says that paper, arrived little
behind time to-day. Among the arrivals
WAS Uncle George Tufy, and to him
Conductor Toilette lays the blame Of the
delay. When little below the Mound
House it was discovered that two of the
boxes on enc side of a car We're red hot.
and the train had to be stopped while
! they were cooled Off and oiled. The
conductor passing through the car,
espied Uncle George with his So pounds
comfortably disposed on the side upon
which the heated boxes were. Not
standing on ceremony, Toilette requested
| Mr.. Tufy to change his seat to the
other side, which he very good-natured-
! " did. When the cars reached Gold
| Hill the boxes under Uncle Georges
new seat were found to be blazing, and
the conductor commanded Mr.. Tufy to
leave the train and walk the rest Of the
way to Virginia. But Uncle George had
no notion of dragging his S52 over the
Divide by foot-pswer. and swore that he
would sit there if the whole internal
train burned up. Notwithstanding the
apprehensions OF the other passengers
the rain arrived here safely, but about
twenty minus late.

General Spinner.

The less OF a large sum Of money while in
the custody Of the Treasurer Of the United
States casts light on the difference between
the Secretary OF the Treasury and General
Spinner, in virtue of which the latter is about
to quit the post he has worthily filed for
many years. 1t VIII be remembered that the
difference between these iunctionaries turns
upon what Is called patronage, in the political
view Of appointment to Office. Mr. Bristow
or some Of bis political friends wanted to APP
point man to vacant place under General
Spinner, and General Spinner objected and
claimed the right to I'll the place, upon the
simple ground that lie must himself choose
the persons for whose honesty he il under
the law officially responsible. But his claim
was ovcrruled and his resignation was ac-
cepted, and on this difference he Is 10 give
way to another. Forty-seyen thousand dol
lars have now been stolen while legally in the
Treasurer custody. For the safety of that
money he is not only financially but crimi-
naly responsible, inasmuch a. if lie fails
safely TO keep the moneys Of the govern
mcnt he is guilty Of embezzlement and
"shall" be punished by imprisonment for
"not less than six months nor more than ten
years, " and shall also be fined in sum equal
to the amount 'embezzled" Ills bond also
is conditioned for the fidelity Of the persons
under him. Yet upon an officer thus re-
sponsible for the acts Of the many persons in
his department his administrative superiors
claim the right to force the loose adycnturers
who hunt Tor profitable employment in the
political retnue Of distinguished men. This
is one Of the many monstrosities incident to
the system that contemplatos offices Of trust
as the spoil Of party warfare,

A Suggestion for Bunker Hill.

The Bunker Hill Centennial being the COM
memoration Of a truly national event we
hope the committee who have in charge the
preparations will not forget to give it a
national rather than local character. To
fail to do this would be to bellttle the men,
DRY and importance of the battle whose hum
dredth anniversary is to be celebrated.
A Baptist preacher up in Maine commenda-
bly, remarked, in the course Of his morning
prayer, 30 Lord, we would not venture
TO advise or instruct, but only to sug-
gest. In the same spirit we address
to the Bunker Hill Committee the re-
spectiul suggestion that they would do
wisely, not only for the grandeur Of their
celebration, but for tho advancement Of that
good feeling between the lately estranGed Sec

Tho Situation In Germany.

We print this morning an interesting letter
from Berlin in reference to the situation in Ger
many, written at time when Paris and Lon.
don were frantic over their apprehensions Of
general war; AS our correspondent shows,
the idea that Germans would gladly lapse into
the pursuits of peace when they had conquered
the French, that they were really Simple,
idyllic and studious people" caring only fol-
peace and science and tranquility, was erro-
neous The fall of France meant the rise of
Germany, and not simply the confederation
of States, caring only for their internal i'm.
provement and the protection of their from
tiers, but as mighty aggressive military
Power, who, having overthrown France, stood
ready and only anxious to combat with the
rest of the world According to our correspond.
ent Germany is now controlled by absolutism,
taking its source, not from the throne, but
from the Prime Minister. Since the war there
has grown up a military party, which proposes
that Germany, having found union by the
sword, can only retain it by the sword. This
party now embraces the Chancellor, Prince
Bismarck the Crown Prince and all the royal
family but the Emperor, who is too old sol
der and far too old man TO care about risk
ing his gray hairs in new campaign. Ths
German military party has frequently alarmed
Europe at the danger of war; 1t every day
publishes warlike articles. 1t interferes with
Italy and the Pope, and is constant in CON-
plants of angry and foolish French priests
who mourn over the prisoner Of the Vatican
and the prosecutor of Varzin. The convic-
ton of this military party is that the last wal
was imperfectly finished; that unless Ger
many renews it now and overwhelms France
she will be compelled to fight at later days
under more disadvantageous circumstances.
The fact that such party exists in Germany,
that it is so powerful as represented in the
higher ranks of the new Empire, that so ac-
tive a man as Prince Bismarck commands it,
and that there is probably mora than justice
in the fear that France is arming for a war OF
revenge, gives constant value to the situation
on the Continent, and makes the elaborate
and instructive explanation of our CORE
spondent an interesting chapter of the politics
of the day.

a prodigious sacrifice Of personal interest and
comfort "But l was made TO believe, !"
he says, 'that the public good called me
to make the sacrifice" As he yielded
to an imperative sense Of duty in
accepting his first nomination, he has fur
nished a criterion for judging how he would
construe his duty in accepting a third. The
imperative duty, in the first instance, was
merely the duty Of preve Ting the election of
q democratic President, and, measured by
the same standard, President Grant would
take third nomination if his supporters
should again convince him that he is the only
man who can beat the democrats. In plain
words General Grant is willing to run again
if his party should think him its strongest
candidate. The strongest republican candi-
date he would undoubtedly be if the country
did not oppose the third election Of a Presi-
dent on principle, quite irrespective OF his
personal merits. The bold attempt which
General Grant has made in his letter to dis
credit and demolish that principle, and thus
remove the chief obstacle to his nomination,
is as inexplicable as it was unneces-
SuTy, Al ne uau nO Olu0H puIpOoc
than to quiet the public fears. It is
more probable that the real design of
the letter was to prevent the republican con-
ventions of other States from following the
example of Pennsylvania and committing
themselves against the principle of the third
term. If the republican party would drop
the subject on the strength of his declaration
it would not be precluded from nominating
him again by resolutions in all the States like
that adopted in Pennsylvania. The letter
was intended to head off the passage of more
such resolutions, and to convince the country
that third term is constitutional, and may
at some time be necessary to the public safety.
If the republican party could be brought to
accept this doctrine the denomination OF Grant
would follow as a matter of course, for he is
personally the strongest man in the party
And if he were once nominated this ''impera-
tive duty of beating the democrats would
overcome his reluctance in 1876 as it did in
1868.

This may be the best Of all possible worlds,
but it is certainly not without occasional
drawbacks to perfect and unmitigated felicity.
Here, now, is General Grants third term
letter. There are actually people and news
papers which pretend they do not under
stand it "Does he mean that he does not or
that he does want third term?" they ask
This is too bad. Last winter the HERALD
was at the trouble of deliberately and pain
fully explaining the meaning of the Presidents
Message to Congress. When we had got
done with that we certainly hoped the public
would hereafter understand him; but here is
another case of general misapprehension,
and as the General wrote this letter plainly in
obedience to the HERALD's somewhat urgent
and often repeated requests we feel bound now
not to leave him in the lurch.
In the first place, then, it will, we suppose,
be generally granted that he means some
thing. This much admitted, we proceed to
say that it matters very little what he really
means. 1t is quite enough that he seems
to decline another term (unless-). He
plainly says that he does not now sup
pose the exigencies of the country will
require his reelection (unless-), and in
this we cordially agree with him. Whether,
therefore, he really, at bottom would like to
be renominated is of not the least conse-
quence. All that the republican conventions
have to do is to take it for granted that he has
declined and to act accordingly. And we

term for the Presidency. 1t is, just now, q
popular notion. General Grant has con-
WINGED good many American voters that one
term is as much as we commonly need for any
President. good strong one-term resolution
will please the public, and it will probably
mitigate General Grants regrets at leaving
the White House in 1877 for if he does not
want three terms he probably does not want
anybody else to have two.

tions which we trust will be brought 10
general and cordial handshaking at Philadel
phia next year, if they would take pains
invite few prominent citizens from all part
of the Union, and especially from the South
ern States. We should like to see Mr. Lamar
of Mississippi; General John H. Morgan, o
Alabama; Colonel Zacharie or Mr. Moncure
of Louisiana, and few dozen others invited
to be present and one or two of the most en-
inent asked to speak on the great day. The
North, however, has more to do for the ma
tional celebration of this event than merely to
extend an invitation. There are organiza-
tions in the Southern States which have in
tended to visit this ancient field of glory, ia
renew the friendship of old times and To
pledge again fraternity for the future. They
should be complimented by the Bunker Hill
committee with the offer of all facilities OF
transportation, and the welcome of the North
should be made in all respects equal to the
traditional hospitality of the South. They
should be the guests of Massachusetts,, just as
under similar circumstances Massachusetts
would be the guest of South Carolina OF
Alabama.
The Ohio Republican Convention has just
declared in its platform that "these States are
one, as nation" which is quite true. To
celebrate national event like Bunker Hid
we do not need to invite our cousins; and,
indeed it might be in bad taste to ask some
of them. But by all means let us have as
many of our brothers rs can be induced to
come, no matter how far away their farms lie.

The Tolerance OF the Modern Pulpit


A comparison of the views of our leading
clergymen is an interesting and sometimes a
profitable occupation, but it is rarely excit-
ing The churches at this time and in this
country seem to live together comfortably
and to be united by spirit of tolerance
Now and then some Protestant divine thunders
forth against the denominations of Rome, and
endeavors to show that the Pope is the beast
spoken of in Revelation, or some Catholic
priest denounces free schools and puts out of
the pale of salvation all who do not believe in
his own creed; but these are exceptions to the
good feeling that exists Clergymen have
ceased to beat each other with books of di-
vinity, and polemical discussions are rarely
heard in the pulpit. The tendency to preach
morality and those truths of Christianity
which all sects acknowledge results in bar
mony which is in remarkable contrast
the religious world To compare the sermons
of the Roman Catholics, the Episcopalians,
the Methodists, the Presbyterians, is to find
not so much the differences as the resem-
blances Of their teachings. Occasionally,
however, we find very opposite views, as in
Mr.. rockingham sermon of yesterday and
that Of Mr.. Talmage. Mr.. rockingham dealt
with symbols and shadows, and said that "a
single hour of duty is worth century of exor-
cism, of prayer and of praise" The Brooklyn
preacher, on the contrary, declared that 1--WE
want more prayer in the store, in the
nursery, in the parlor, in the Legislative halls;
more prayer among the young, among the
old" Mr.. Beecher, in his sermon at Plym-
outh church, affirmed the certainty of
punishment for sin, arguing from analogy,
and defined punishment to be but another
term for effect" The same conclusion was
reached by Rev. Mr.. Ganse from widely
different premises. His subject was the holi-
ness Of God, which he described as a torrent
Of destruction if it flows in the way
OF justice. "a holy God cannot be
regardless Of unholiness." Here in the case
Of Mr.. rockingham and Mr.. Talmage is di-
rect issue; in the case of Mr.. Beecher and
Mr.. Ganse we see how the same conclusion is
reached by different ways. The reader may
find other interesting points in the intelligent
discourse Of Mr.. Hepworth upon Christ as n
prophet and the Bible as a book Of poli;eness;
in Mr. Martins thoughts upon the cost of
working out our salvation; Mr. Leawells ex-
