sincerely hops that Brother Newman will give up
the ghost OF Grantism, TO which he clings, and
devote himself and his really magnificent abiIi-
ties 10 the service Of God Almighty, pure and
simple. Or, II he must mix into politics, let i'm
follox the example OF Sunderland, and bestow
his prayers upon

may thereby win the present administration
away from the Foundry Church and bring 1t into

suggestion seems to be that the degree Is inap- |

editor laments that there is not some degree
within the gift Of the colleges and universities to
signalize military attachments. Another sug-
zests that even D. d. would BIZ more applicable

is that the celebrated degree OF D. II.
would most accu rately typify the peculiar accom-
,lishments Of Gen. Grant. The only objection
hat Grant cou possibly have TO this degree is
hat 1t has already been conferred upon nearly
he entire newspaper fraternity, ana my friend
