Mr.. Beecher gave his opinion of Mr.. Bowen's
charges, at meeting last night, in torclbie
words. A resolution introduced by Dir. Smear
man will serve to clear up some possible con-
fusion as to the relations of Plymouth Church
to the Scandal Bureau. The Church Com
mittee will not decide upon the merit or value
of evidence; whatever there is of it is to go
before a committee which the Advisory Coun-
ell appointed, and the latter committee VIII
decide whether there is sufficient cause 10

independently of his tribe on tract OF land
granted him by the Government At the END
of three years, if his conduct has been salts
factory, he is to receive title deed to the land
and be treated hencefOrth as an ordinary citi-

whatever may be the result, and Is at least
quite as humane as the system which our Gov

The formal announcement of the impeachment
of Gen. Bell1nap chiefly occupied the attention
of Congress yesterday, interfering with the
long-d1awn debate on the Pinchback case.
Urged by the request of the Presd mt in Cab
met meeting, the Attorney General is imme-
diately to begin criminal proceedings against
the cx-SecTetary; and this prosecution will go
on independent of the impeachment trial.
Meanwhile it is expected that Gen. Babcocks
resignation from service at the White House
will be accepted, and his friends are making
up purse OF $4,000 to indemnify him for
his expenses in the st. Louis suit.
The hasty legislation Of the House on the
Bankrupt law has called forth much comment.
We print to-day thoughtful letter on the
subject, urging that an amendment not re-
peal of the law, is needed. AS it now stands,
il gives satisfaction to few except the lawyers
and officials Of bankruptcy courts. The outcIy
against il comes mostly from the creditor
class. but honest debtors have reason to COM
plain of its costly processes. Our correspond
ent takes chiefly the creditors view of the
subject in suggesting changes, and he adyo-
Gates the repeal of some of the amendments
| passed last year. They were mostly IN the in
terest of the debtor, and while meant to pre-
vent oppression, have possibly given too much
scope to dishonesty.

The fall of the Secretary Of War has stung 80
many scared consciences in Washington that there
is prospect of revival of certain old fashioned
customs which have latterly been looked upon at
the Capitol in the light Of curosities. Senator
Spencer is said to have declared with deep feeling,
that there is nothing like being honest"
New-York tribune., 1876-03-04

The Mayor has done a sensible thing in yetoing
the ordinance which gave the hackmen high rates
and relieved them of responsibility. There has
been no time when the public hackmen were under
better regulation than now, and yet the powers Of
the City Marshal to punish violations Of ordinances
ought rather to be increased than decreased. Tho
rates are far too high double treble those of any
other metropolitan city, and ought to be lowered.

Dstrict-Attoney Phelps asserts that he knows
nothing of the disappearance of the important evil
dence of the forged bonds in the Williamson case.
We can readily believe this to be unaffected igno-
rance on Mr.. Phelps's part. But only as late as
Thursday a clerk of the District-Attorneys Office
was searching for them in the Office of Clerk Sparks
of the General Sessions Court. OF course they were
never there. Possibly Ar. Henry c. Allen, who was

The President seems to share the mistaken opinion
Of a great many Americans that the Centennial Tx
position is to be show of curOsties rather than Of
the best products of American culture. He has
assigned to duty there Major Lewis Merrill of the
9TH Cavalry. There will be much curiosity TO SEQ
tbsremarkabe officer whose operations in Louisiana
during the political campaign Of 1874 were tho
theme Of general comment all over the country that
we trust he will be given conspicuous place in tho
United States Government building. Ii would not
be q bad idea to exhibit with him copy of Lieut.
Col. Morrow's report to Gen. Emory on Major Mer-
riils behavior in "mpairing the reputation of the
service for fair and impartial conduct in the delicate
and responsible duties it is required to perform in
conjunction with the civil authorities in the South
ern States"
New-York tribune., 1876-03-04

II is evident from tho letter of DR.. Derby which
appears elsewhere in our columns that a grave
social danger exists IN New-YOrk, the nature Of
which has been imperfectly apprehended. Tho
Doctor IA an efficient member of the State Charities
Aid Association, and as a result of his invest-
cations he shows that there are from 500 to
LOCO persons one-quarter of them women
who night after night seek and obtain
lodgings in tho police precincts of this city. The
experience Of those who brought in contact with
the stationhouse dodgers shows that heres nothing
to be hoped for from persuasion or from preaching
the nobility of labor. Facts are stubborn things
and if men and women can be found who when
wholesome work is offered to them actually prefer
the miserable routine of nights spent in the filthy
atmosphere Of the statiOn-houses and days of mem
delaney from door to door-some having led this life
for fourteen years-why then the law must be in
vOked to protect society in one OF its fundamental
principles Z" IL any man will not work, neither let
him eat,' is q precept as old as Christianity
and it is of universal application. 1t is more
than probable that any labor test would
act as n twO-edged sword. 1t would have
q deterrent effect upon the large number who dread
the very thought of work, and who have no higher
ambition than TO live in filth and idlencss at tho
expense of Others. But it would also prove the
worth and ability of those who may have beentorced
by evil fortune to seek free quarters, but who would
welcome any opportunity of returning TO the re-
spectacle ranks of society. We glad that the evil
has now been clearly exposed; and our citizens have
a right TO demand that on the lowest ground OF mo-
ralty decency, health, andpubic security the atten
ton Of our political economists should be devoted to
its abatement The question is pertinent at a time
like this, when the Yapant laws of tl.is State are
being revised and modified, with the probable result
of driving the tramps in still larger numbers into
New-York City; and when strong feeling exists
throughout the community that all who are relieved
at the public expense should also contribute them
selves by their labor to the public benefit

Epitomizing NJ. Emile de Girardin's bulky
volume on the " Greatness or Decline of France"
Henry James, jr., writes that the veteran
Journalist counsels the French to reduce the
army, maintain peace with Germany, and up
hold the Republic. If this sound advice is fol-
lowed, N. de Girardin concludes that France
will regain her former grandeur, and become a
leader among maritime and commercial nations.

on hand to pay all Warrants that are out

Final Examination.

This young but popular school, under
the management of Prof E. w. Price,
closed last week It's first regular Annual
Examination. Prof Price has had full
school, having on his roll at the close net
less than forty pupils. Considering the
stringency in the money market, his
success deserves public communication.
The young ladies at their final exhibit of
the manner and character of the train
ing received reflected great credit upon
both themse Ives and their teachers. In
addition to the usual Higher English
and the Classics, Prof Price concerns
himself especially to start beginners
rightly in learning their mother tongue.

The Evil Fruits of Weak Digestion

AAC Gt4 FL uALs VI w 6dA OlRGSJlO0
There is no pathological fact more
clearly ascertained than that the most
formidable phases of nervous disease are
directly traceable to imperfect indiges-
ton. Insomnia, with its train of direfu /
consequences, proceeds more from weak
ness of the stomach than from any other
cause. Mere sedstives are powerle~s to
cure nervousness, and soon ceases to paL
late its symptoms. The true way to
strengthen the nervous system is to in
vigorate the digestive and assimilative or
gans, upon whose uRobstructed action its
equilibrium is absolutely dependent. The
daily use of 6ostetter's Stomach Bitters
will do more to brace and soothe the
weakened and irritated nerves, and in
duce sound, refreshing sleep-nature's
grand eatholicon-than ali the so-calIed
nervines to be found in the pharmaco
poeia or out Of it A wineglassful of the
Bitters should be taken before each meal.
