THERE must have been some peculiar
circumstances attending the caucus selec-
ton of the Rev. /. L. Townsend To be
the Chaplain of the ex-Confederate House
Of Representatives, or so much commotion,
including attempts to defend his political
record, would not have followed. We
print elsewhere several communications on
this subject, which show that considerable
feeling has been aroused by the report that
Mr.. Barnum urged the reverend gentle
mans nomination in the caucus on the
ground that be had been prosecuted Dem
OcIat. As matter Of personal interest,
Mr.. Townsend should call upon his friends
to cease these efforts for his defense. Il
they are continued much longer it is not
impossible that some enthusiastic Republi-
can from Connecticut will attempt to prove
that he is Democratic pulpit orator, and
if such an attempt is made we have an ides
that 1t will succeed In this connection il
may not be inappropriate to advise Mr..
Townsend to omit in his daily prayer,
which he reads from the Episcopal service,
the plea for the President OF the United
States and those in authority. 1t does not
sound well in Democratic House.

Mr.. JOHN PORE HODEETT, who was a
great Liberal leader in 1872, and a promi-
gent manipulation of the Baltimore conyen.
ton when the Democracy Endorsed Horace
Greeley, is out for the restoration of suf-
frage in the District. The Metropolitan
Democratic Club, as well as the Jackson
Democratic Association, the two local po-
litical organizations whose. sympathies are
kindred to those of the majority in the
House, must look to their laurels or Hold
nett and his followers will get the start OF
them in the matter Of winning public favor
on the suffrage question. 1t is none OF our
business, but we suggest that Messrs. Dick
son. Norris and Alexander ought to meet
Hodnett in consultation, prepare for cooper
stion in the serenades q they propose -
tenter to the Democracy, and join with
each other in efforts to influence their
friends IN Congress. In unity there is
strength, is motto IN which Mr.. Hodnett
believes; he will therefore have no objec-
tion to the coalition we have suggested.

THE New York Her Id declares that
President Grant is "under the Methodist
influence" A number of spectators in
Methodist church property throughout the
entire country, which he proposes shall be
taxed. have a different idea. The fact is
that his Message, as far as it relates to the
tsxation of church property, will bring
upon his head the utter condemnation of
those seetarians who desire to use their
church franchises for speculative purposes,
while the broad minded and truly patriotic
Christians of the United States will join
with him in support of the theory that no
Catholic should be taxed for the support of
untaxed Methodist property and rice gsrsG.
The attempt s6'show that his propositions
regarding this matter were made in the in
terest of any sect, and particularly in an
tagonism to the Catholics, is simply absurd.
Intelligent religionists the world over will
sustain him in his efforts TO make education
free and religion uprestralned,

of these Southern Confederates to any love Of
the nation or its Government; how they will
labor to deteriorate our currency by imitation;
to turn the hearts of their people against the
Union; and to bestow all their patronage upon
men least suspected of genuine and brave
loyalty. Let their motto be "obstd prineipiio;"
let no threat or hectoring divert them from the
effort to unmask to the nations gaze all latent
treason; and in this way, and In this alone,
can the people be prepared to give safe YER
dict at the polls year hence.
The Confederates In Congress are well aware
that the eyes of the nation will be directed to
their behavior; they are being daily lectured
by their press at home, and conjured to the
observance of moderation and prudence; but
it will not all avail against the spirit of dis
affection which predominates with them and
their constituents. Their secret will be out in
the choice of Speaker, the bcstowal of their
patronage, their votes for imitation, their objec-
tions TO the protection of Southern UIionists,
and all legislation for free suffrage at the
South. We have but few from the South to
speak for us. But our cause is the cause of
the Union, and we cannot lack for friends to
espouse it among those who have already
saved us from the worst of fates-the Confed-
er0cy; the synonym of military despotism and
civic misrule. VIRGINIA LoTALIsT.

THE Democratic press is busy just now
comparing Mr.. BlaIne's constitutional
amendment regarding the public schools
and the recommendations in the President
Message regarding the same subject. The
Buffalo Courier reaches the conclusion that
the President completely distances Mr..
Blaine's feeble bid for popular favor. -
They all seem to forget, however, that the
President made his first announcement on
the subject at Dies Moines, Iowa, nearly
three months ago. But it is not fair to
charge that either of these Republican lead
ers have attempted 10 "bid for popular
favor" That may be the Democratic
phraseology for it ; but the public,will IN
derStand that the President and Mr.. Blaine
have simply performed an important public
duty in proposing solution of serious
question.

IT Is unUficlally announced that Messrs.
Ken, Thurman, and other Democratic Con
gressmen to whom serenades were rendered
not long ago by several local Democraticas
sociations, have peremptorily declined the
compliment. This is very, very sad. The
money had been raised with which to pay
the bands, &c, and now it is as useless in
the hands of the finance committee as the
transparencies prepared by the same asso-
Citations for the celebration of Democratic
victory in Ohio last October. But they
might donate it to a colored orphan asylum.

IT'S THREATENED that Fernando Woods

IT'S THREATENED that Fernando Wood s
blunder in the case Of Representative Mo-
rey may result in the appointment of some
other person to be chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee. That would be sad.
at the same time an effort is being made to
show that Mr.. Speaker Kerr was instru-
mental in rescuing the Democracy from the
trap into which Dir. Blaine was adroitly
leading them while Mr.. Woods Morey
resolution was under discussion. The truth
is that Mr.. Holman was the man, and If any
ono is entitled to credit for the discovery OF
Woods foolishness he is. In common jus,
tice, then, he would be entitled to the
Craftsmanship of the committee in question
provided, of course, Mr.. Wood has forfeited
his claim to il.

''MR. BLAINE is coming to be looked upon
as the leading Republican opponent to the Third
Term scheme and the most casual examination
of public sentiment at the present time shows
that he is thereby gaining strength equaled
by none of his rivals save Secretary Bristow."
This is the sage assertion of the New

Reference was made In this column yester-
day to the Canadian system of Indian man
agement, and incidentally the total Indian
population of the United States and terrific
ries was given as $50, ZIP, this being the num-
Der set down by the census of 1870. OF this
number 1t must be understood, however, bat
122,0H were actually enumerated, the re-
mainder being estimated. Since the ninth
census was taken the greater portion of the
Indians have been enumerated by the Indian
bureau, which sets down the aggregate In
dian population, exclusive of Alaska. al
about $4,000. According to the last census
report, the estimated number of Indians In
Alaska is 5000, which would swell the az
gregate TO $4,000, or about 80 900 less than
the number given in the census report. II
may be well also, in this connection, TO cor
rect an impression which has obtained to a
considerable extent, that the larger portion
OF the Indians receive rations from the gov
eminent The Indian bureau estimates that
out OF the entire Indian population of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 not more than
e5ooo draw rations regularly from the gov
eminent.

The trial trip OF the fast mail tram from
New York TO Chicago is reported a success,
the train reaching Chicago in twenty six
hours from New York, less than twenty
four hours from Philadelphia and Baltimore,
and twenty-four and a half from Washing
ton. This is said 10 be four hours faster time
than any on record. The new arrangement
will doubtless be great convenience to
bushes men and others, and is a notable
event in Gov. Jewell's administration.
