Their keen m oral sense may teach them that
such costly display is foolish and wicked, and
their educated taste may teach them that the
vagaries Of fashion which they are obliged to
obey are often intensely ridiculous and
thoroughly absurd, yet they must obey the
mandates of love in spite of taste, reason, or
morality.
The vice has attracted the notice of the
pulpit as well as of the press, and is more
and more passing into the catalogue Of public
nuisances.
The London Times concludesl its brief,
pithy and pertinent article thus:

The members and ministers of the va
rious Presbyterian churches, meeting In
conference in New York, have adopted
articles Of alliance, which declare fheir
denominational unity and their tolerance
of other religious bodies. This il in
furtherance of the effort for the proposed
confederation Of the different Presbyte-
rian churches throughout the world, and
OF the general conference to be held in
London this year. The sort Of union
proposed is closely analogous to that of
the Congregational churches There is
to be grand council, composed Of rep
resentatives Of the different Presbyterian
churches, which, however, will have no
Legislative or judicial powers, and can
only make recommendations, which the
churches are at liberty to accept or re-

Ministers has precisely as much and %
little power, but it has still been able to
virtually exercise much Of the authority
which belongs to really Legislative
body. The Pan-Presbyterian Council
will undoubtedly bring about unity Of
action among 10000, 600 Of Presbyterians
in America, Europe and Australia, which
will intellectually increase their power.
If these 20, coo, 900 can be induced 10 eb-
stain from sectarian jealousy, and to ioin
in an organized effort, it will soon be re-
cognized that new power has arisen.

will at once become the chief of the Pro

IA Parker Pros oooxtio nAssn.,.s,.,,,.
We understand that answers were made
yesterday by Messrs. Melton Il Clarke
and Baohman & Youmans, attorneys for
defendant to the complaints which were
filed some days ago by the Sinking Fund
Commissioners, andby the State, through
the Attorney General. against e1-Trea-
'surer Niles G. Parker. The object, of
course, is to bring them to q speedy
hearing, and the ensuing term of the
Court will be one of no little Importance
and interest. For years past prosecu-
ton of this sort hos been a thing to
which we could only look forward with
hope that 1t might some day be insti-
tuted. The time has come at last for it
to be done, and the responsibility which
has been accepted 80 handsomely by the
Executive, which has made some progress
in the General Assembly, is now, we
trust, to be enforced in the Courts.
Those disreputable transactions in con-
nection with the handling of the public
funds, those frauds and cheats which
have blackened our history for nearly a
decade of years, are, it is to be hoped. to
be dragged into the light, thoroughly
sifted, and, where the guilty, parties can
be made amenable to the law, sternly
punished. We PREJUDICE no man, and
no man who is innocent has any cause to
fear the searching quest Of the judicial
tribunals. Let them now do their ap-
pointed work fearlessly, without favor as
without malice, and may justice and right
prevail and the State be purged of her
despoilers. We congratulate the country
that we have at last an atmosphere in
which prosecutions for wrongs done it
can breathe. Acting, as we believe, from
q high sense of duty, every man who re-
CARDS the blic'interests and the public
honor will commend the efforts of the
Comptroller-Genoral, Dunn, and the At
torney- General, Melton, to bring to ac-
count those, or any one of those, who
have used high positions to defraud the
people, plunder their property, and soil
the public service.

JOHNSON AND BRowNLow- Nash
vile (Tenn.) Banner evidently does not
attach much importance to the war of
words which is likely to ensue between
ex-President johnson and ex-senator
Brownlow ~ result of the recent bitter
letter of the latter. It says:
t'The truth is that neither of those
venerable East Tennesseeans are likely
70 play any vsry conspicuous part in the
future political anAirs Of Tennessee.
One has gone to the Senate for six years,
and the other has declined into the lean
and slippered psntaloon stage of homage
narianism, and can only sputter like a
dying wick in q socket This is too
energetic and intelligent an age to be
trammeled with the wornout nonsense Of
asilurian Political epoch. There is not
enough viHiltty LEFT in, the possible COM
batants to make wordy war interesting,
much less exciting enough for q political
issue. Younger voices from more vigor-
ous and less diseased minds and bodies
will drown out the shrill piping Of dueru-
Ions and garrulous old Ashwomen."

= Gn0aAL GesDon.--This Distinguished,
Georgia statesman WAS serenaded at WILL
mington. N. c., Saturday night He.
addressed the citizens who had turned
out in large numbers to do him honor.
We make few extracts from bis speech:
He said that it had been charged on
the floor Of the United States Senate that
he had uttered conciliatory sentiments
at Concord that he dare not speak at the
South. In response to this charge, he
would say here to-day, that he had as
serted in New Hampshire that the South
had been, was now and forever would be
ready to extend the right hand of fellow
ship to the people of the Northern States.
General Gordon ikened the South to the
suffering patriarch Job; like him they
were afflicted but patient; they had lost
lands, and houses, and friends, and fa-
miles, but they were faithful md con-
stant unto the end; Job was filled with
boils and scabs and sores, and the peo-
pie Of the South had been over-run with
scallawags and carpet-baggers. Only in
one respect did they differ-even in his
worst extremity, the devil didn't set up
Jobs servants over him. It was the
speakers great privilege to be the bearer
this day of glad tidings to the people.
He had been among the people of the
North, and everywhere could be heard
the mutterings Of the doom that was sure
to overtake those who had abused the
privileges Of power and had sunk all of
the instincts and teachings of patriotism
in their panderings to self; and when the
first centennial of American independ-
ence dswns, the flag of free people
would hoat from ths dome of the Capitol.
General Gordon concluded with IN elo-
quent appeal to the people to stand fast
by the principles that they had so hap
PLY maintained here in the Old North
State, and to go on conquering and to
conquer In the great cause of constitu-
tional liberty.

RESIGNATION OF ArroRNEY-GENERAL
WILLIAMS. The resignation of Attorney
General Williams takes effect on the 18th
of May. He says that he has held the
office long enough for reputation and po-
litical glory, and that it is now time for
him to devote some attention to his own
welfare. He will renew his practice in
Washington as a lawyer, and leave to the
President the choice Of his successor,
about whom, he says, he has no more
idea than an unborn babe. It is known,
however, that Secretary Bristow will
willingly accept the office, and, MS the
President has promised he should have
it whenever the present incumbent saw
fit to resign. the question now is, who
will be Secretary Bristow's successor?
MIR. Bristow does not like the duties of
Secretary of the Treasury, and the COM
ing change has alone kept him in Office
Judge Edwards Pierrepont. of New
York. ex-senator Carpenter and General
Butler are also mentioned in connection
with the coming vacancy. Tho letter of
the President, accepting the resignation
of Acknowledgement Williams, it is said,
will pay a high tribute to his ability and
distinguished services az the head Of the
Department Of Justice.

SILVER REsUMprIoN.-Upon the best
Washington authority the New York
Bulletin learns that it is the purpose of
the Government not to put in circuln-
ton any of the silver coinage, in pur-
suance of the resumption Act, until the
price of gold has fallen to about l. 10, rs
with gold Ringing above that quotation
coin would naturally be bought up for
export. The Bulletin adds:
1--WE are not informed, however, whc-
ther. in the event Of the gold premium
falling to 10, the Government could have
sufficient assurance that it would not ad-
vance again to warrant the coin being
put in circulation. 1t seems, however,
quite likely that the Secretary Of the
Treasury would feel that he needed very
considerable assurance ON this point;
more indeed than, under the generally
unsettled condition of the Influences that
affect the gold premium, he would be
likely to get We express the opinion
respecting the caution of the Secretary,
because We have reason to believe TINT
the Administration have less confidence
in this particular branch of the resump-
ton Act than they had last February,
and that they will at least tacitly sane
ton the introduction Of bill, immedi-
ately on the opening of next session of
Congress, to repeal the silver resumption
clause"

THB ENFORCEMENT Acts TO DE DE-
cLARED UNCONSTITUTIONAL There has
been much surprise manifested at the
announcement that the Supreme Court
would decide the legislation of Congress
known as the Enforcement Acts uncon-
stitutional. The fact is the Grant Parish
case which was recently argued by
Reverdy Johnson, David Dudley Field
and r. H. Marr, did not present to the
court a single feature not previously pre-
sented in the South Carolina Ku klux
and Kentucky election cases, and it was
upon the latter case the court held it's
conference, when it was discovered how
nearly unanimous the court was of the
opinion that the Act of July, 1870, was
unconstitutional. It was then that the
political bias had its influence, and, as
the Louisiana troubles had brought the
Grant Parish case prominently forward
as a party question, an effort was made
to have the argument postponed until
the fall session of the court, when the
political condition Of affairs in all parts
of the country will be more favorable for
sober judgment as was said by O men,
Der of the court before it was decided to
hear the argument. The President, ad-
vised Of the heresy of his appointees on
the Bench, actually declined to attend
the dinner given by Reverdy johnson to
the Justices Of the United States Su-
preme Court.

Toy pIsroLs. The toy pistol got into
n New York court the other day. While
two little boys were playing together one
day, they undertook to have a little in
nocent advertisement with one of these
contrivances, that, along with the dime
novel, go to melting tho young idea to
become long-haired, lansuage-murdcr-
ing, border rapscallion. One of the
youths snapped q cap in the face of the
other, and knocked out his eye. The
father of the injured lad brought suit
against the paternal ancestor Of the other
for the costs of medical attendance and
81, 600 damages. The claim was modest
enough, surely. The judge, however,
dismissed the complaint on tho grounds
that he could see no justice in any prin-
ciple that would hold father pecunia-
rily responsible for the eccentricities OF
the son, no matter whether the latter
happened to be minor or of full age.
The judgment may be legally correct,
but it does seem that father who would
deliberately purchase for his children
deadly weapons, even though they be
only toy ones, should be liable for the
damage that may ensue. If not, then an
ordinance should be passed making the
carrying Of '+oy deadly weapons" a
felony.

SPLENDID WHEAT PROSPECT. "A gen.
tleman who has Travelled extensively
through Tennessee. Kentucky, West
Virginia, Maryland, Indiana, Ohio and
Southern Illinois, informs us TINT the
winter wheat crop now in the ground in
all thnt region is in excellent condition.
Some farmers supposed the broadcast
sowing would provo failure in such
States rs Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia
and Maryland, where the snow did not
lay long on the ground; but examination
OF the ground proves the reverse. Not
only is the growing wheat in excellent
condition in these States, but the area
put in is large. In the more Northerly
portion of the winter wheat belt, the
earth has been very steadily covered
with snow, and there can be no doubt
that when the thaw comes it will be
sudden. Spring will bo skipped and
summer will begin. The weather will
be hot and forcing, and the growth of
the wheat plant will be rapid. Another
thing appears to be certain, and that is,
there will be a big corn crop in 1875.
Corn Is now bringing a price that will
insure large profit to the farmer, and
hogs arc high also. Thus are two incen-
tives to produce corn largely. If the
crop should he so large as to force prices
down, it can be fed to hogs and made to
pay good profit that way.
