The Rev. DR.. WEBB OF Boston in re-
cent sermon, took occasion 10 complain OF the
newspapers for not publishing other sermons
than those on political and other topics OF the
day. to the neglect Of the more spiritual dis
courses. II this is the fact, we aGree with the
reverend gentleman that the papers so doing
are wrong. What the pulpit mas to saw on
politics and current secular topics is OF very
slight account compared with what 1t has TO say
OF those great spiritual things that concern the
soul and are not Of time. but Of eternity. We
do not 90 to our preachers for instruction rs to
how we shall vote, or to have our ears tickled
with out - rsts OF theatrical eloquence, or to
get comic suggestions, but to listen to words
that shall put our thoughts in the spiritual path
and our souls In the heavenly mood. These
brief suggestions we commend TO all our pas
tors this frat Sunday In October, and TO Brother
TALNAGE especially, by way Of warning.

Forty.Fourth Congress First Session.

Washington, May %.

Paddock, from the committee on post offices
and post roads, reported with amendment in the
nature of substitute the bill to restore the frank
ing privilege. Placed on calender.
No decision was reached in the secret session.
and, at 4: 45, the doors were re-opened, and the
Senate went into executive session, but after o
short time adjourned until tomorrow.
House.
On motion Of Mr.. Cox, the Senate amendments
to bill authorizing appointment Of receiver Of ma
tional banks nor concurred IN. The House then
went into committee of the whole on bill revising
and simplifying existing laws imposing duties on
imports, and to reduce taxation.
Mr.. Morrison addressed the committe in expla-
nation Of the bill.
After speeches on the tariff question by Morri-
son and Burchard of ILL.,, the report Of the COM
mittee on foreign affairs, the Emma mine in
vestigation, was presented by Hewitt of n. Y,
who proceeded to address the House.
The committee therefore find as to the inquiries
announced at the beginning of the report.
LIST. Upon the authority of the despatch of the
Secretary of State. that it not proper for the
American minister at the court Of St. James, to
connect himself as q director with the Emma min
ing company Of London. This position is con-
frmed by the authority of Phillimore, who says in
truth every State ought by expressly forbidding
ambassadors to combine engagements in private
trade or commerce with the sacred duty of repre-
sentaion to prevent any question Of the kind ever
arising. The Roman law on this point deserves
to be initiated.
I'd. That the relations of Gen. Schenck to the
vendors of the Emmn mine were of such charac.
ter to cast suspicion upon his motives, and sub.
ject his action to unfavorabe criticism. But the
committee believe that he was not guilty of .
fraud of any fraudulent intention in his connec-
ton with the company, or the vendors Of the mine
Sd. That his subsequent speculative dealings in
the shares of the company were not compatible
with his diplomatic station and the maintenance of
position of honor and usefulness at the court,
near which he accredited.
The committee therefore submit the following
resolution and unanimously recommend its pas
sage by the House.
Resolved. That this House condD INNS the action
of Gen. Robert Schenck, United States minister
at the cout Of St. James, in becoming q director
of the Emma Silver Mining company of London,
and his operations in connection with the shares
of SAID company, and the vendors thereof as i'll
advised, unfortunate and Incompatible with the
duties of his official position.
The Emma Mine report went over till to-mor

on District of Columbia, presented to the House

my testimony to the thousands of others constant

in the army, and had the misfortune to be taken
prisoner, and was confined in Salisbury and other
southern prisons several months, and became so
much reduced in health and strength as to be a
mere skeleton of my former self. On being re-
leased, | was fit subject for Northern hospital,
where l remained some two months and then
came home. My physician recommended and
procured for me several bottles of Peruvian Syrup,
which continued to use for several weeks, and
found my health restored and my weight increased
from ninety pounds to one hundred and fifty, my
usual weight and | have been in my usual good
health ever since; and can cheerfully recon-
mend il in all cases of weakness and debility of

Err UNDER ARREST.
He Pleads Guilty of the Horrible Crime..
Placed in Wiscasset Jail.

Waldoboro', May 25. Thomas Finn, the child
murderer, was arrested last evening, and brought
here about midnight, by Sheriff Morse. He was
committed to Wiscasset Jail this forenoon. AT the
hearing before Judge Pike he acknowledged him
self guilty Of the murder.
LATER.
Wiscasset, May %. Thomas Finn, who muir
dered his little giIl in Waldoboro', on Tuesday,
was to-day brought to Wiscasset and committed
to jail. He is undoubtedly insane and should
have been in the hospital long ago. His mania is
of religious character. He imsgines himself a
sort of SAVIOR and he feels that the salvation of
the world depends upon him alone. AT times he
is quite rational and seems to realize his crime,
but says he had to kill the child to keep his family
from starving.
