part of Bishop Haven. There has
been several meetings heldsince then,
by Methodist Clergy, and tho there
have been protests against tbe spoil
cy" of the Bishop there does not APP
pear to be any OPP position Of the Meth
odist Clergy to the specific object. 1t
was hasty, uncalled Cor, only the cx-
preston q one man, and all that
1t had not the force of Catholic Bish-
Op, or priest, for Methodist Bishops
are men of no influence or~power in
the Church, is all that is now claimed,
There was meeting of the Meth
odist Clergy at their Book room, Gin
cinnati, lately, at which u number Of
resolves on the subject were offered,
and discussed, showinga nervousness
about the matter, but the result was
a final understanding that it was best
not to say anything at present.
There have been meetings elsewhere
with like result,-Er.
The Grecnbricr independent says:
"If our Legislature had taken the
proper course, this matter of the i'm
parchment OF the two State officers
might have been disposed of long
since, at very littlo expense to the
State, after n fair investigation, and
with no injustice to any one. The
Republicans, whilst they may not
expect or desire these officers to be
removed, are, no doubt, greatly re-
joiccd to have this proceeding drawn
out TO so great length, and to have
the State, under Democratic rule,
subjected to such expense,
We suggest to our Senators that,
however agreeable they find the "tom-
porary seat" that the interests Of the
State, the interests of their party,
and Il due regard for the wishes of
their constituents, require that they
shall not remain there one moment
longer than necessary, after the 18th
instant. Ten days at the very most
will be long enough to dispose of both
cases. All the witnesses can testify
in four days. Very little argument
will be necessary to cnlighten trib-
unal so dignificd andlcarncd, and, GER
tainly, six days for argument will
satisfy the MISUNDERSTANDING them

justice to thcirclicnts and themselves,
We have indicated what can and

Senators will do.

If the reception at tho White
HousUon New Years day may be
taken as Il sign of Grants popularity,
the third-torm project is in Il very
bad way, 1t was the slimmest, cold
est, and most neglected affair of the
kind that has been witnessed since
the close of the civil war. The at
tendance at the official ceremonies,
which include the diplomatic body,
Cabinet, assistant secretaries, officers
of the army and ndyy, Senators, Rep
resentatiyes, and various societies,
was so exceptionally small by com
parison with former occasions as to
cxcite universal eomnScnt When
the hour'for the public came, there
was no throng at all, and little more
that a beggarly account Of the Office
holders, who could not stay away
with safety. The people Shone by
their absence, and for once Grant
was made to feel how much he had
fallen in public estimation, and how
powcrless he was to command the
ordinary tokens ofrcspcct and regard.
Even the faithful third-tcrmcrs look
ed solemn.
The complaints in the third-tem
organs about the Democratic House
filling the offices at its disposal with
cx-rcbels, to the exclusion of MANNED
Union soldiers, are proved to be hum
bug by the records of the late Repub-
lican Congress. From Clerk to page
there are 276 Offices in the House,
The list of the last House shows that
of this number only eight had served
in the Union army, and three of them
had been clerks in the quartermast-
er's department Ofthc five genuine
Union soldiers, two only had been
wounded, and one only had received
Il scrions injury. The latter was
Joseph F, Wilson, Assistant Post,
master for three terms, who retired
with an ample competency. The
real trouble with the thirdtcrmcrs is
that many of the oustcd officials
were well trained lobbyists, and knew
the political and personal secrets of
leading Republicans. No wonder
that Grant is importuned to provide
for them in other department.
There is a probability that the eX-
pcnSes of the West Point Military
Academy will be largely roduced.-
The American people will learn this
without Il trcmOr.

Last Thursday was rather an excl

elected two Councilmon and the Re-

we find that had the anti-liquor Ii

their nominees ora majority of them,
but some were in quarantine, and
some did not vote. If all the Coun-

will have to submit to lcgolizod
