DrEOnER's Chri fiuH Eut0H has an nru-
Gle on the tn airc and the church. .lkiug
the ground that the business OF rotor ming

the clergy, but that it must reform its ~.
Now, it the theatre isa morul injury TO
the community, as II must b. II it / not
decent aud BEECHER scrms to inply 1t j.
no., then it is as much the bu.u es of tlo
pulpit To cry out against the theatre and
demand its publication rs to n,sVil any
other institution that threatens the moral
welfare of the community.
BEEcnER says, moreover. that it IL no
more the business of the ministers to med
die with the theatres than II il the busi-
ness OF the theatrical managers to inter
fore with the churches This is clap-nap
The business Of the theatres is amusement
.i,,,l, but the churches have charge Of

,u1ir in ,r,us,n,, "s community the the
aturai managers present p. rvs mat are not
decent. rs BEEcitrR says they dc, lheh the
church should, rs duty, treat the tn'atic
Us an evil, and bring to bear its influence
to cleanse its moral atmosphere.
BErcurR says ilppautly that cit Is rs
much ~ churches can do 10 attend to their
own institutions: aud for them to under
take TO run theatres and become RESPONSE
BILE for them is more than it il Just to ex-
pcct." No one expects the churches to
run the theatres any more than other en-
rloymenis of wen hnt ia both ca.os il the

duy TO perform in saying 50 and warning
thcir people against them.
The fact is, DeEcHfR, in this matter, is
simply hedging. Since his fiery trial. he
has felt the necessity of appearing TO be
very orthodox, 40 rs to secure his place
in the Cong cgatioual denomination, and
the prospect of his dying in the odor OF
sauctity. lie really thinks theatres are
well enough and has no objection to them,
but he wishes to be on the safe side with
his >tiictcr Congregationalist associates,

that no play could be put on the stage SO
indecent - that he has himself enacted in

the demonstration that Is now going on hy
the House committee, to establish The
fact. Mr.. Sn.RNAN has been ON the spot
and has personally witnessed the self-cou-
dcmnng practices of the Returning Board.
He has seen them shamolcssly deny and re-
fuse his own proposition to put one man
from the opposing side on the Board.
They would not yield even this wrctchcd
boon to the doomed party, to SEQ
just how il was swudlcd Thy had
dcvilsh business on hand, and they
would have no witness. This single
act OF determined secrecy is damnng to
the Board, and Of itsef ,t.atsa the count

Board not only did not dare do their work
in the light of day. they roiusci to do 1t
In the presence of a single witness. The
antccedcnt character OF the men conforms
to their present practices. Gen SnERI-
DAN denounced the head Of the Board rs

considered the best man on 1t. And. rs
if they had not shown themselves sui
hcieutly guilty before, we now sec them

A Satisfactory President.

The Hcrdld has published conversation
with one OF thu Republican managers in
Washington, who detailed the mode to
be pursued IN declaring HAYES elected
President, concluding with these words:
As tn the next elections they Will take c,rc ~

crt Will have then chance aud tley can make the
most OF It,"
No President can be satisfactory who is

wise OF good the man may be who allows
himself To- be placed u such "a position, and
no matter how statesmaniil<c the measures

tory President. Nothing cal cure the out
rage which puts him in the White House;
ana justice will pursue him without mercy
TO the end of his career.
The man who acquires Il fortune by
stealing or cheating is not relieved from
the consequences of ms fraud by attempt

Use of his stolen money. Mr. HAYES

There is no need Of any very analy iical or

The law creating the Returning Board

originally conceived aud passed for fraud

Nh instrument TO control the elections
Of the state in the interest Of
the party in power which enacted
it, II IL understood to have been
conception of the fertile braun of that
noted uuscrupulous political mtigu,r.

IN sin and brought forth in inquiry.
Corrupt politics IS incapable of pro-
ducng anything more audlcious or more
infamous Than this law. In the hands Of
unscrupulous men, such rs have had tie
control of Louisiana since tho war, u
makes no odds how the vote OF the Sinte
