There really seems To he a plan on foot on
the part OF some OF Mr.. Beecher'S more zeal
Gus adherents-they can hardly be called
his friends-to give him a grand ovation on
the occasion of his return In September from
lis summer vacation. II this purpose Is
carried into effect a very grave mistake will
be committed So far as Mr.. Beecher's con-
gregation and large circle of personal friends
IN Brooklyn and elsewhere are concerned, no
such demonstration Is needed to show the
hold lie has upon them; so far as the general
public IS concerned, 10 Will not have the de-
sired effect. On the other hand, what is said
and done on that occasion can scarcely fail
to call out criticisms, facts, and counter ex-
pressions of opinion nom those holding OPP
posite views as 10 Mr.. Beecher's deserts.
Most Of these persons would prefer that these
things should remain unsaid, now that the
trial is over and the case partially with
drawn from public attention, and they would
leave them unsaid but for some such provo
cation as the proposed ovation Will be very
apt 10 be. The best thing by far. both for
Mr.. Beecher and the morals OF the country,
rs silence and forgetfulness; and those who
persist in keeping the scandal alive in this
way are acting an unwise and cruel part, so
lar as he is concerned

Ex-senator Carpenter has been inter
viewed on the political situation. Accori-
ing TO the Chicago Times, he expresses the
opinion that President Grant will be renom-
mated on a hari-money platform, as that is
one OF the circumstances under which, ac-
cordlng 10 his letter, he would deem il an
Imperative necessity for him To accept. He
furthermore says that David Davis will be
the democratic candidate, on a rag-money
platform, and that greenbacks will win over
gold. This statement is 10 be received with
some allowance. The first query is as TO
whether Mr.. Carpenter really expressed the
opinion attributed 10 him, and the second is,
what IL l. worth If he did.

The question OF sectarian schools is agi-
tating the politics and politicians OF other
states besides Maryland, and figures more or
less prominently among the pulpit and press
topics discussed all over the country. Gen.
Thomas l. Young, the republican nominee
Tor lieutenant governor of Ohio, IN his first
campaign speech at Columbus the other
evening, is reported TO have favored hard
money and opposed a division OF the school
fund between Catholics and PrOteStantS."
IL having been reported that the clergy of
Rochester, y. V, Endorsed the recent action
of the board OF education prohibiting all reli-
gious exercises IN schools, they have signed
manifesto saying that they have no idea
that the course taken will conciliate the enc
mics of the public school system, and they
add: 1--WE utter on behalf of the religious
people of this city. who are outraged by this
procedure, our distinct and solemn protest
against it,

Look out for lively times among the New
York city democrats John MOrrissey and
few other members Of that once potent or
ganization, Tammany, having dared to an
nounce opinions in opposition to a majority
OF the Sachems In the wigwam, the commit
tee OF discipline of the tribe has reported In
favor OF the expulsion of the Independent
John and his colleagues. The n. v Herolf
says: Mr.. Morrissey is the only typical and
thorougbgoing democrat we possess in this
region He IS OF the people, for the people,
and with the people-a man of courage and
tenaeity, with strong, though iIl-directed
convictions Of honesty-who has shown that
a man may pass through the worst phases of
life without personal degradation. They pro-
pose 10 put him out OF Tanmany Hall, and
We hope they will do il, for there is nothing
so interesting as lively fight in local poll
tics. Well put out, he Will be like a certain
person who was once banished from Rome
he may make the old establishment howl"

Suppose that all said OF the antecetents of
The unfortunate woman outraged a few days
ago on New York tugboat is true. 1t does
not follow that her reluctantly told story OF
That outrage is fiction. On the contrary,
her condition aggravates the enormity of the
crime, If one was committed. Because she
has been a confidence woman, and because
she was an opium eater, does not make it
any the less Incumbent on the New York
authorities TO probe the matter TO the bottom,
and mete out punishment where IL is due.

PRIVILEGE TAX.
mented ]

Gov. Ames of Mississippi. and the miscel-
laueous crowd of negro rsscals and white
earpet-baggers and scalawags who are in au>
thority in that unfortunate State, are evidently
determined to use their power to the utmost
for the oppression of the people SO long as
they can maintain themselves in Office Some
time ago the New York Sun published tax
bills and other evidences of the extortionate
taxation which the property owners in Mis-
sissippi are obliged to endure under the rule
of the black and white plunderers who have
fastened upon them, and now, says that paper,
1t seems that Ames and his crew have in
vented new process for wringing more money
from the impoverished people. It is called q
privilege tax, aad imposes an annual contri>
button to the tax collector of sums VARYING
from few dollars to few thousands for the
privilege of pursuing reputable occupation.
Almost every imaginable mode Of gaining a
livelihood, except farming and preaching, is
included in the list of occupations which rem
der person liable to the payment of the
privilege tax and in order to make its VIC
tins pay up promptly, it is provided that any
person exercising any of the privileges
enumerated in the bill without first paying
the tax shall be fined. or imprisoned, or both,
at the discretion of the Court. The Law also
provides that no suit shall be maintained in
any court in the State to enforce the PAYMENT
of any claims that may accrue to any person
on account of any business subject to the
privilege tax if the person bringing the suit
has failed to pay this eztOrtiOnate imposition,
If Ames only lives long enough. he will doubt
less become as popular in Mississippi as his
fsther-in-law, Ben Butler, became in Lou
isiana
