Patriotism and Politics of the Reli=-
tOus Press.

Some Of our religious exchanges have fred
of their crackers and torpedoes fe days in
advance of "the glorious Fourth" The
Christian h1teIl;gencer insists that the clergy Of
the country should unite with their people in
its religious observance with services appro-
pirate to the memories and the historical sig
nifcance of the great day; and it gives as
one reason for this observance the mighty
struggle that is going on in Protestant Europe
against the hierarchlcal despotism of Rome
and the malignant atheism Of the age in
which struggle Protestant America is equally
interested with Europe. The Boston Pilot
thinks that this year will be memorable for
having bad two glorious Fourths-one June

hands and marched together with their guns
on the same slope and looked with love into
each others eyes and saw the pictures Of the

Massachusetts stands beside the palm of
South Carolina on Bunker Hill and the peo-
pie have taken the question of reconstruction
out of the hands OF tn1 politicians and are
determined to live in unity and peace hereaf-

is not disposed to contend against the Fourth,
because we have none too many holidays and
it would rather multiply than diminish their
number. 1t would, therefore, welcome every
holiday that has q reasonable excuse for its
existence.

FAST TRAVEL IN New YORK CrrY.-The
HERALD has pointed out that rapid transit is
not to be secured only by one route, but by sew
eral, and has advocated the completion OF those
roads which are now imperfect We are,
therefore, pleased to see that the Elevated
Railway Company will apply to the new
Commissioners appointed by Mayor Wick
ham for permission to extend their tracks to
the South ferry and the Grand Central depot
They also intend to extend the road to Fifty
ninth street, so that trains will run from the
Battery to the Park in sixteen minutes As
that distance is only made now In an hour, or

To-day the HERAID's lightning express be-
gins its seasons work. This year, increasing
the scope of it's activity. it will bear its freight
of latest news to the tar Niagara. So the
wonderful energy of the modern newspaper
seeks every day a new field for the employ
ment of its energy and intelligence. 1t is no
longer content to cater for the people of its
immediate vicinage, but seeks to embrace the
whole country within the circle of its infu-
ence. 1t is the servant of the people, and
wherever the people go the newspaper will
follow. From the enterprise of the press
there is no escape, and whether our citizens
take refuge among the lofty Catskills or by
the placid waters OF Lake George they will
find themselves pursued by their familiar
friend-the newspaper. Sedate old gentle
men, in the most retired hooks and corners,
will wake up this morning TO find the
HERALD neatly folded on their breakfast table
awaiting an audience. And when the FIRST
moment of surprise has passed even the crus-
test of old grumblers will be glad to glance
over its columns and learn how the world wags
far from their retirement. The towns and
villages on both sides of the Hudson, West
Point, the Catskills and all large towns on the
line of the New York Central road will be
equally blessed with such fashionable resorts
as Saratoga and Lake George. Poor and rich
alike will derive the same advantages from
our lightning train, which labors for the good
of al and not for the pleasure or satisfaction
of the few. Not alone here, but away in
the far West, the effects of our enterprise
will BIS felt as it viii enable US TO
deliver the HERALD in Chicago tweniy-four
hours before any other New York paper can
arrive there. We need not commend to the
public this enterprise Our experience tells
us that whether we telegraph target diagram
from Dublin, explore the hidden secrets of
African deserts or despatch lightning trains
freighted with the latest news, the people
always reward our energy in practical man
ner. Widening the sphere of our usefulness,
we this year offer the advantages of our light
ming train to the public Persons DESTROYS of
visiting Niagara and not having the time at
their disposal necessary for the journey by
the ordinary trains can avail themselves of
the facilities offered by the HERALD express.
Leaving New York at half-past two A. NJ,
they can reach Niagara at a quarter to two
T. NJ, and, should they desire to return the
same evening. they will be taken up and
whirled back to New York OF the rate Of
City miles an hour. Those who prefer to
remain over night can do so and return by
the regular morning train. The advantages
offered by this HERALD excursion ought TO Sc
cure for it large public support
Cape May, Long Branch, Red Bank and
surrounding country, Babylon, Rockaway and
the numerous nesting villages on the Atlantic
coast, will also this morning receive their
wonted budget of news, fresh from all points
of the globe, thanks to the enterprise of the
HERALD in special arrangements by steam
yachts and extra trains.

There is one aspect Of our social and moral
duties In this anniversary that must not be
overlooked in our celebrations from one end

noting that era of good feeling which has
once more dawned upon the American people
We must forget, in our hearts at east, that
the fratrcidal war which closed ten years ago
was ever waged The South had been edu-
Gated to the principle of State rights and
upon this principle it fought for independ-
ence. The North believed that allegiance
was due first to the nation, and that the Union
Of the States was indissoluble, and upon that
principle it battled through four long years Of
war. The issue has been decided, and the
people of the whole country meet once more
as friends and brothers. What more fitting
occasion than this can they fad to renew to
each other their vows OF allegiance to the
Republic founded by the wisdom and genius
of the fathers of the Revolution? This hal

tisnal liberty, should not be surrendered to

Comptroller Green on the good sense he has
displayed In solving the difficulty in the way

from this method of payment was injudicious,
uncalled tor by any public interest and die
tated only by petty hostility to the Mayor. AT
the same time there seems to be little doubt
that he had the legal right to make the
change. hence it is creditable to him that he
has been the one to yield. The wrangle was
disgraceful to the city, unworthy Of the Off

The Patrintia Pnator..

The readers of the HERALD notice that our
city pastors intend to-day to let of their GU
muladng patriotism, and the former must not
be surprised if the latter wrapped in the
Stars and Stripes, fire of a few rockets or
crackers over the heads of their audiences.
This Is one Of the days in which "the King is
dead-long live the King r. when every man
and every boy does that which is right i'll his
own eyes. And as ministers are men, and
should be patriots, few at least will speak
for the multitude. Mr.. Harris will give us
the significance Of the Declaration of indie
pendence; Mr. Terry will show us wherein,
with oil or boosted independence, we
are yet dependent; MIR. Willis will
take up some questions in their no
tonal aspects and show their mutual
and interdependent relations; Mr.. Lghtbourn
will present US as O holy nation-not OF
course, that we are actually such, but that we
ought TO be, because Of the divine exlltation
and blessing; Mr.. Saunders will also give US
a mixture Of religion and patriotism, or show
us that we ought to be religiously patriotic,
and DR.. Newman will spread the eagle OF Sea
Cliff Camp Grove, and give us type OF
Capitol patriotism, while the mammoth organ
is promised to make the woods resound with
music and melody.
DR.. Porteous takes the ball at the bound,
and will give US an essay on the moral and
demoralizing effects of the late trial, as wen
as discourse on the mischiefs OF religious
sentimentalists; Mr.. Lloyd will take his con-
gregaton along from glory TO glory and show
them the love of the Father; DR.. Deems whl
put his Stranger church in the attitude of the
infant prophet Samuel, waiting to hear what
the Lord will speak; Mr.. Hawthorne will
speak about Sabbath observance and the new
birth, and Mr. Hepworth will reveal some
thing of Gods great love to man. And thus
will the pulpits clothe themselves to-day with
patriotism and piety.

SUMMER ADJUSTMENTS. One by one the
theatres have closed their doors, until
now tho few houses that defy the in
huence of the weather have taken almost a
searecrow look. The people baked IN their

around to listen to tho numbers that speak to
their hearts through some mystic channel Of
sympathy. Tne classicists visit Central Park
Garden and revel in symphonies and the

the people who do not understand the music
Of the future gather around Gilmore with his
admirable band-his soloists and singers-who
are content to appeal to the popular heart
through the simpler music that touches and
moves the masses. Thomas and Gilmore

they established their summer gardens and
the thousands of all classes who nightly visit
them is the best proof of popular approval
The music in the Park is at this time of the
year something particularly enjoyable.

THE RETURNS OF TIE EXCISE COMMISSIONERS
show that since May they have collected for
licenses under the reduced rates about one
hundred and twenty thousand dollars. This
large sum has been, no doubt, secured through
the evident determination Of the Commission
ers to enforce the law impartially and to col
lect the license fee Of all dealers without
favor. A return Of the District Attorney s
Office shows that within six months eight hum
bred unlicensed dealers have been arrested, Of
whom seven-eighths have paid, leaving only
one-eighth to prosecute. The strict enforce
ment OF the law Is only an act Of justice to
honest dealers who do not desire or attempt
TO evade its provisions, and the Commission
ers Of Excise will by continuance Of their
vigilance secure tho good viii Of tho liquor

UTICA, N. Y, Jan. 30.-The American
Express office in this city was robbed at
an early hour this morning. The partic-
ulars are briefly as follows: The Com
pany have u night watchman whose bus
mess it is to attend the night trains and
receive amy packages intended for tue
Utica office,
This morning the watchman locked the
Office as usual, and went W the depot TO
attend the 4:45 A. M. Pacific Express,
and to meet also the 4:45 A. NJ. ST. Louis
Express East, which is due at the same
hour. He returned to the office, having
packages containing the valuables from
both trains.
The packages were deposited in the
vault, which ne locked, placing the keys
in the usual place. Five. masked bur-
glars now confronted him and demanded
the keys, which were refused. One of
the burglars struck him a heavy blow on
the head, knocking him senseless. They
then gagged and tied him, found the keys,
took from the vault the bags before men
toned, and quietly departed. The watch
man, whose name is Irving Dority, was
seriously injured.
He soon returned to consciousness
and shouted for help, which soon az
rived, but the burglars had got safely
away, and no clue has yet been obtained.
Agent Ferris says it is impossible to
state the amount of the loss, as the bags
contained all the way bills. a.
