Morrissey and Curtius.

Morrissey can at least congratulate himself
upon the noble end in store for him. He
may by accident know the story of the Roman
Curtius who leaped into a gulf, to his own
certain destruction, for the sake of his coun-
try, which he thereby saved and he will be
happy to hear that he is to repeat the
splendid story with the little difference that
he is not to Jump but to be bounced into the
gulf. Here, for instance, is this great couI-
try, which cannot be saved without the demo-
cratic party and the democratic party cannot
be saved without Tammany, and Tammany
cannot be saved unless the gulf that yawns
near it is filed up by man of fine proper
tons like the Talleyrand of Saratoga. This
gulf is only another name for Tammany's
bad character, for its evil repute in respect
able circles for the bad fame it has earned
before the world tor giving places of honor to
prize fighters, gamblers, rum drinkers, policy
pedlers, jailbirds, panel thieves and all
sorts of people addicted to social eccentric
tiles 1t is considered by Tilden, Kelly and
the other great lights that these facts brighten
the decent citizen and make him vote the
republican ticket; and the theory is that the
decent citizen just now stands politically
with one foot lifted uncertain which way to
turn, and that if Tammany comes out with
splurge of heroic virtue be will turn to her
numerously, Overwhelmingly, and that he
will vote tor her with an energy that will put
the lIvelest of her repcaters to shame. So
Morrissey is to be literally her scapegoat,
to be freightcd with all her sins and run out
into the wilderness by the High Priest of the
Congregation John Kelly; OF, more heroically,
he is to be her Curtius and close up with his
brawny person the chasm that yawns between
her and the decent voters who burn to come
to her with tremendous majorties. There is
not ono thing in this world that is more enter
tanning or delightful than on experiment;
and this is great experiment in democratic
politics. SO, by all means, do it at once
Let the lictor strike with the sword

Chorpenning.

There Is only one fact that is certain and
indisputable with regard to the Chorpenning
claim, which is that we are not done with it
yet People who have claims are very apt to
bore you tor the last time when they get the
money There are exceptionally vital claims,
it is true, that are not even killed off by pay
ment, but that are encouraged by it and re-
there was an error, and that the amount
claimed should have been great deal larger.
Payment is, as rule, however fatal to
claims but their rejection, the refusal to
pay is their very breath of life, and the
Chorpenning claim, that has skipped about
chance and chancery, the lobby of Congress,
has just had infused into it the skipping
power Of kangaroo by the decision of the
Attorney General that il cannot be paid ex-
cept by act of Congress. The latest law
point on this claim turned on the interpreta-
ton of two measures relating to it that had
gone through Congress. One referred it to
the Postmaster General, presumably with
power; but behind this presumption that
the case might be carried to conclusion by
that authority lies tho recognized principle
that Congress has power to step in at any
stage and interrupt course of proceedings it
had initiated at least equal to its power to
initiate them. Congress interrupted these
proceedings at most inconvenient point for
the claims-that is, just before the paying
began. SO, then, the claim is on their hands
with undiminished splendor, and Congress
will meet next winter.

The Churches and tho Public.

The churches yesterday we're not as we'll at
might have desired to see. Still, it must be
remembered that many of the leading clergy
men could not have seen the churches even
if they had been full for the reason that they
are out Of town. Their absence explains the
otherwise singular non-attendance of the re-
ligious public. A syllogism nigh: be thus
constructed hot weather drives the
fashionable clergy from the churches the
fashionable Christians only attend the
churches to hear the fashionable clergy
therefore the Christian fashionables go to
Coney Island and Far Rockaway on Sunday.
This is logic, and if the major and minor
premises are conceded, which they must be,
we do do not see how the conclusion can be
disputed unless the pious doubter refutes it
by going up the Hudson to Fort Lee, or to
Long Branch But there is another fact to be
considered, which redeems the religious repu-
tation of the city. The clergymen being out
of town-at Saratoga, Newport, Cape May, the
White Sulphur Springs, Paris, Baden and
other popular places their congregations have
resolved to follow them. They feel the want
of their pious counsel, and are too prudent TO
remain in New York exposed to all the temp
tations of the wicked metropolis without their
accustomed spiritual guides The emptiness
of the churches may thus be explained by the
departure of the clergy and the consequent
exodus of the congregations. 1t follows that
New York is, to very large degree, drained
of its religion, and that Saratoga and Long
Branch, Notwithstanding their club houses,
have really become the religious centres of
the country,
New York, however, is so rich in clergy
men that the absence of q hundred does not
leave the city altogether exposed to tempta-
ton. Among those preachers who wage un-
firing war against the weather and against
evil we find many eloquent men whose SER
mons are reported in our columns to-day.
There are the Rev. DR.. Booth, Rev. Rishop
Potter Rev. Father McCabe, DR.. Ormiston,
Rev. Mr.. Payson, Rev. Mr.. J. Spencer
Kennard, and others, who maintain the
standard of religion in the community and
prepare the way for the return of Mr.. Beecher
and other equally influential cergymen after
the season of hay fever is ended and Chris
tianity becomes once more leading met
ropolitan attraction.

banks to the business community are so init
mate that comparison of views and expert
ence between bankers of the different States
would give to all a most important knowledge
of the real financial condition of the country
and its different industries.
Moreover, the bankers are vitality interested
in the movements of the Secretary of the
Treasury toward specie payments, and a
meeting of the leading bankers of all parts of
the country could, we believe, give important
suggestions to Mr.. Bristow, who has GER
tainly very great and somewhat indefinite
powers under the Resumption act, and who
would, we do not doubt be very glad to hear
the views of men whose interests must be i'm
mediately and greatly affected by his acts,
and who have, necessarily, given much atten-
ton to the financial future.

that he ought to clearly justify an irredeem-
able currency. We did hope that the
war being over we should at last
issues which grew out of the war, among
which this irredeemable currency is one. Be
fore the war we had paper money, but it was
always and promptly redeemed in gold A
man who should have attempted to pay of
his workpeople on Saturday night in bank
bills for which they could not have got coin on
demand would have been thought swindler
and, in fact, he would have been one. Were
the mechanics and farmers of the country
foolish in 1860 and during all their lives
before that date? Were they suffering loss
all that time by insisting upon being paid in
coin, or in bank bills redeemable in coin1
If irredeemable paper money is 80 great
boon as Mr. Pendleton pretends, why was
this never discovered by the democrats until
1855 Why did Thomas H. Benton, Andrew
Jackson, Silas Wright and multitude of
honored democratic leaders never find it out?
Did financial wisdom begin in that party
with the Pendletons, Careys and Voorheeses?
Surely it is q pitiful spectacle to see the
leaders of a great party-a party which once
ruled the country for long term of years for
the country's glory and beneft-to see these
new leaders countenancing doctrine which
their predecessors never tired of denouncing
Where would Mr.. Pendleton hide his head if
cold Bullion" should one of these hot days
be 'materialized' and rise before him at a
democratic meeting?

tn. nankers conrantion.

We fear it must be said that the recent
Bankers Convention at Saratoga was, like
Mr.. Toots declaration of love, "of no conse-
quence." glance over the list of names
fails to disclose the presence of any of the
leading bankers Of New York, Philadelphia
or Boston, and the resolution of the meeting
urging the repeal of the two cent check stamp
shows that the majority of tho gentlemen who.
took part in the Convention had thought more
of their own convenience than of the neces-
sary taxes. Pretty much everybody in the
country knows that the tax collected from
stamps Is the cheapest and the least burden
some on the whole tax list.
But why should not the leading bankers of
the country meet in convention and advise
with each other on the condition OF the cur
rency, the finances and the industrial prospect
Of the different sections Such a meeting
could easily be made to have great importance.
1t would help to restore confidence and would
thus aid industry: for the relations OF the

JESSE PoMERoY. NO one can wisely claim
intellectual insanity for the boy murderer,
Jesse Pomeroy. Morally insane he may be,
and in that misfortune resembles many great
criminals, who, with perfect com prehension of
sensible facts and of admitted principles of
right and wrong, have an irresistible tendency
to evil. But Pomeroys statement which we
print to-day, shows that he is clever enough
to argue in favor of his own lunacy, and yet
SO clever that he only succeeds in proving
himself technically sane.

The GERMAN NEWSPAPERS regard the sub
mission of Catholic clergymen to the law re-
specting the administration of Church prop
erty as a concession from Rome to the State,
and anticipate on abatement of the struggle.
But we fear that in this they err. There is
yet no evidence that the Pope has receded an
iota from the position he has assumed against
civil interference with the Church.

This was always the way OF the aristocracy.
If there were House of Lords with seventeen

still insist upon being burden to its unwill-

that they have inherent rights which it is
i'm pertinent for the people to dispute.

Mn. PLIMsoLL AND THE SAILORS. Tho de-
fant course of Mr.. Plimsoll in tho House OF
Commons was undoubtedly promeditated, and
has already been sustained by his clients, the
sailors, who desire that the Shipping bill shall
be considered by Parliament before it adj
iourns. A meeting was held at Brkenhead
yesterday, and several thousand mariners of
England and workingmen pledged their sup
port to Mr. Plimsoll. The attitude of the
English sailors toward Mr. Disraeli, in respect
to the compulsion of crews to sail in unsea-
