Boston One Price.

William Porter Cady believes in adver-
Using, and when he has something of
especial importance that he wishes to COM
munlcate to the outside world he always
avails himself OF the columns of THE
GLOBE, knowing full well the value of the
medium, he having bad ample proof in the
past of the increased business that has al
ways followed the publication of his 'pro-
carnations" William has an original way
of putting things, and not only does he en-
joy "seeing his neighbor and going him
one better" on the distance that his GUS
toners como to see him, but he "rises 10
explain in such a straightforward manner
that even the "advisory" attachee Of a
country newspaper need not drop round
to enquire if the "old lady" read TIE
GLOBE, or some other paper.
The "Boston one price" has just re-
ceved large invoice of new goods, pur-
chased at the lowest market price, and
anyone can't help but find something that
will fit out of such large stock as is here
to be found, and at prices that defy CON-
petition. In the line of gents furnishing
goods are to be seen several new novelties
which are well worth your inspection II
only for curioslty's sake. Drop in at

DR.. storrs' Opinion of the Advisory
Council.
NEW York, March 10.

NEW YoRK, March H.
The church of Pilgrims, of which Rev.
DIR. Storrs is pastor, was crowded tonight
by highly intelligent congregation anx-
ious 10 hear views which, 1t had been an
nounced. he would deliver in regard to the
recent advisory council and its decision
IIc characterized the recent advisory coun-
Gil although composed of very intell-
gent body of men, as one of no great moral
weight 1t was large as to membership,
however, and represented a constituency
Of 34,6l1. lie thought the previous Con-
gregational councils had much more weight
because it was not composed of delegates
known to be favorable to Plymouth church
He knew there were IN the late council
very many delegates favorablet to Plymouth
church, and this fact would throw some
light on the strange result arrived at. He
referred to tie fact that while here the del
egates were specially cared for by Ply
mouth church. He condemned the rules
laid down by this council for the admission
of members and guidance of the Congre-
gational churches. He condemned the
construction of the manner of communion
which opened its doors to all who sought
aGmittancc, and excluded examination by
the church of the forger, the adulterers
and the msligners, merely dropping their
names from the roll on account of absence
from the church. He thought the recent
advisory council improper, as it tended to
cause innumerahle councils to be called.
He thought the council had without inten-
ton heaped dirt on the great doctrines
of the Lord, and had spread protecting
wings over the pastor of Plymouth church.
According to the doctrine of the Catholic
church the christian character of the priest
made no difference to member in so far as
efficacy of sacrement was concerned, but 1t
would be hard TO make the Protestants ac-
cept such view Such a council as had
been called would have about as much
effect rs a brush of feathers in cleaning out
a mine. The request from the church in
Andover to Plymouth church was perfectly
proper, and the council went out of its
way to deal with the matter. The council
had no more right to deal with the matter
than it had to conduct the trial of General
Babcock,

Post leadership Developments.

NEW DIRK, Blarch II.
A Times st. Louis special says A spe-
cial dispatch from San Antonio, Texas,
states that the men who have sold most of
the post traderships in Texas are General
John NJ. Hendrick of Ottumwa, Iowa, at
present collector of internal revenue in that
state, through his agent, a. Leighton, who
was sent out TO Texas in the spring of 1871.
A claim agent of Washington city is also
mentioned in this connection. The follow
ing is copy of communication sent by
James Trainer, formerly post trader at
Fort Concho, to Congressman Hancock:

spring of 1865, sutler of the fourth U.
s. cavalry, in which capacity served with
great satisfaction to every officer of the
regiment until the appointment of Gen.
Belknap, soon after which was advised
that Fort Concho, where | was doing bust
ness at that time, had been given to Gen.
Hendrick Of Iowa, at present the commits
sioner of internal revenue of Iowa and
Wisconsin. | Immediately proceeded to
Washington where | was advised could
see Gen. Hendrick and probably arrange
to keep my position. Upon an interview
with him he proposed that | should con-
tinue as su,ler Of the Post by paying him
SO 900 per year; did not think the bust
ness would guarantee so large sum, and
declined to treat with HIM. Soon after
my return to Texas was visited by Leigh
ton, an agent representing Gen. Hendrick,
who proposed to allow me to remain by
paying him 81 800 down and remainder of
1000 per annum in quarterly payments.

been lodged with the secretary of the inte-
rior against 7. b. Searight, surveyor gen.
eral Of Colorado, Several affidavits have
been forwarded to the department charging
that Searight was systematically engaged
IN receiving brides to induce him TO award

alleging that a contractor by the name of
Lessig, who received contract for per-
forming certain work, for which he was to
receive $4,000 from the surveyor general
of Colorado. distinctly stated that he lost
money on the operation, because he was
compelled to pay Starlight $4,000 to obtain
the contract. Starlight was formerly a
democratic member of the Pennsylvania

partment of justice, has received informa-
ton that will form the basis for one of the
largest investigations of the session. What
the exact nature OF this information is he
refuses for good reasons to state, but it is
of the most damaging character against the
department of justice, war department,
postoilice department and the department
of the interior. Mr.. Caulfield yesterday
called together tine charinen of the COM

mentioned and held conference which
lasted about two hours. The investigation

THE IMPEACHMENT FIZzLE.
WASHINGTON, March IL.

WASHINGTON, March ~.
Some days must necessarily elapse before
the committee on judiciary will be prepared
to report articles of impeachment against
Belknap, no material testimony, If any at
all, having been taken since that of Marsh,
which, under the present circumstances, is
of no avail in support of charges which the
house has already informed the senate it
will make good. It's said that more than
week ago six or seven persons in the
vicinity of Marsh u Evans late trading
posts were summoned, and that there ar
rival may therefore be expected. In re-
sponse to question recently to n member
of judiciary committee he said that proof
could he procured independently of
that of the witness Marsh to abundautly
support and prove the charge already made.
Some of the members of congress express
their belief that Marsh will return if con-
gress pass bill securing him from arrest
in connection with Belknap's offence.
ANONYMOUS.
Since the Investigations ger orally have
commenced many letters are daily received
here, not few from anonymous sources,
designating alleged frauds and names OF
persons charged with committing them in
different branches of the public service.
THE EMMA MINE.
The committee on foreign relations ex-
pect to examine ex-senator Stewart on or
before the Goth of the present month con-
corning bis connection with the Emma
NINE, and il is expected that ex-Minister
Schcnck, who LETT England for America
more than n week ago, will appear before
the committee as soon as he can reach
Washington.
PENDLETON.
George II. Pendleton will appear before
the committee on expenditures in the war
department tomorrow
THE SECRETARY or TIE NAVY.
The members of the committee on naval
affairs say there is m implied obligation 10
keep their present proceedings from the
public, therefore but little can be learned
concerning the exact points now before
them. 1t is not concealed, however, that
the examination is general a, to contracts
and as to allowance by Secretary Robson
of claims which had been objected or dsal-
lowed by Wells, his predecessor. Ex-assis-
tant secretary of navy, FaXon, will testify.
Much OF the present inquiry relates to sub
jects before the committee of which Sar-
gent was chairmal four years ago.
INDICTMENT AS WELL AS IMPEACHMENT
FIzZLEs.
The grand jury cannot find any indict-
ment against ex-Secretary Belknap in the
absence of Marsh. the principal witness.
The assistant district attorney states that
the evidence presented thus far to the
grand jury is insufficient to warrant it IN
bringing an indictment. 1t is mere than
probable that unless Marsh can be brought
back to testify it WILDE impossible to pun
ish Belknap through the pedium of Grim
NAL prosecution.
