A Ringing Protest.

Charles Nordhof, in the character Of
Methodist layman, enters ringing protest
against the effort Of any Methodist Bishop
TO commit the Church to a third term. He
says that Bishop Haven has done great
deal at the South to widen the breach be-
tween Northern and Southern Methodists,
and to weaken the bond of brotherhood
between the section., or at least to increase
causes Of irritation. He closes letter to
The Herald On the subject by sharp
complaint Of the conduct of Methodist
clergymen, in endeavoring to use their in
huence at the White House for political
purposes. He says Of this course: ut
seems to me dishonorable, and they have
undoubtedly and within my own painful
experience brought contempt and disgrace
upon the METHODIST name b7 such n,iscon-
duct. In my Judgment and in that of
many other Methcdists the favor in which
our more prominent clergy have been held
at the White House, and consequently in
the departments during a number of years,
ia, had an evil influence upon them, and
has worked badly for the Church. For
my art I should be very happy if The
next President sheuld prove to have an
unconqnerable aversion to all Methodist
clergvmen. 1t would be fortunate thing
for the denomination

Sneaker Kerr's Health.

A special dispatch to the New York
Sun says : The health Of Speaker Kerr
was such, when he left Washington last
week, as to make his friends solicitious
Since then the announcement that he has
undertaken longer journey causes them
to be more anxious, and it is feared that
the election Of Speaker pro tenn. will be
necessary bfore the work of the House is
fairly inaugurated. The last Speaker
pro. tenn. was Pomeroy, of Auburn, N. Y.
The pro. tenn. Speaker is vested with all
the authority Of Speaker, though neither
can change the standing committees. Mr..
Kerr did not, it appears, understand the
force of House rule 10S, or he would have
made the committees on public expendi-
lures worthy Of theimportant trust 1n6ded
TO them. In the last Congress the Deprrt-
ment Of Justice Committee Though organ
lied during that Congress in accordasce
with the rule, was a nonentity because
Speaker Blaine chose to have it 80.

A Man Torn to Pieces BY the Cars.

A Nan Torn to Pieces BY the Cars.
Sunday morning about nine o'clock the
mangled remains Of man were found
strewed along the track Of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad at the Four-mile House,
three miles from Camden Station, 5Balti-
more. When they were frat discovered,
it was difficult to determine whether the
remains were those of human being or
not, as they were SO completely mutilated
and ground to pieces by passing trains as
to be almost unrecognizable. The only
portion ofthe frame which indicated that
the mass had once been man, was the
lower portion Of one leg and the foot.
Word was sent to Baltimore at ten o'clock,
and an engine aud car dispatched, and the
fragments of the body gathered together
and brought to Mount Clare Station, and
placed in coffin by Mr.. John E. Davis,
to await identification, which appeared to
be almost impossible. o. -.

somewhat assisted by fear of trouble likely
to arise from the position of the gold
market, and by the efforts of the bears
to depress prices but at the close the market gave
indications of substantial orders for the purchase of
stocks and this demand turn appeared to develop
the fact that but few real stocks were offering.

seven per cent gold bonds for sale at %.
The street somewhat surprised at the an
nouncement this afternoon that the Secretary Of
the Treasury, in issuing his call for thirty millions
Of bonds should ask for only S6O0O0o0 of registered
bonds and S24,OO0,O00 coupons, as the public had
been led to believe that Mr. Bristow would confine
himself mainly, if not entirely, to registered bonds
which are held mostly in this country, and
thus prevent the expectation Of tho gold
to be paid out by the Treasury. The
gold spectators evidently expect to reap
benefit from thscourse that the Secretary has seen
fit to take in the premises, and to-day sharply ad-
vanced the lending rate for gold and the premium.
Those who are in condition to be well informed
upon the subject estimate that at least one-ha the
bonds covered by this call are now held in this
country; and they seem to think that We will be
likely to sell so large quantity Of bonds to Europe
that the redemption Of this $SO.OOO.OOO may not re-
suit in the expectation of any considerable amount
of gold after all.
