Peachan.

Peacham.
1t has been known more or less gen.
orally, that the Congregational Church
in Peacham has been dealing with a
very fragrant case of discipline, and now
that the case is concluded, we suppose
there can be no harm in announcing the
result. DR.. Parker, prominent cltl-
zen, has taken such position toward
the church for long time, and latterly
towards the pastor, that some action by
the church was deemed necessary. A
very patient and prolonged hearing has
been had, extending through several
weeks, and the result is, that at a very
full meeting of the church on Tuesday
of this week, the vote was unanimous
to excommunicate him; and a resolu-
ton fully indicating the pastor, had
only four votes against it, so the mod
orator pronounced it practically unani-
nous. This is a more harmonious re-
suit than those who have known of the
strong feelings entering into this case,
dared to hope.

action on his resolutions regarding the presidency
and the llersld's despatch says there are not two
dozen democrats in both houses of congress who
will have ANYTHING TO do with the subject.
Senator Whyte of Maryland, says be feels hu
inflated at his State passing such resolutions.
Montgomery Blair expresses himself enthusiast
tcaly as to the practical effect of his resolutions
recently passed by the Mary land legislature, to
contest the TILE OF PRECEDENT Hayes.
The resolutions have not been privately discus
sed by the democrats, and it possible to pass
bill to regulate the mode OF procedure before
supreme court as requested the president would
OF course veto II.
Blair thinks it would require only sixty days to
GUST Hayes and place Tilden in the presidency,
and that such proceeding would create 20 more
commotlon in the county than change in any
petty office.
Blair has commenced work TO secure friends TO
his presidential measure.
1t Is stated that the fee delivery ,y'tems in the
post Office service Melted last year $3.50 900, and
this wear will clear half million.
