Senator Wallace stated in debate a
few days since that no wounded soldier
was to be removed from Office under the
Senate. To-day the Sergeant-at-Arms
bounced" Capt. Creary, the efficient
Postmaster of the Senate, to make place
for New Jersey politician. Capt.
Creary enlisted as a private early in
1861, and carried musket for twenty
months before he was promoted, taking
part in ten battles. He was in the Sc

clerk and aid to Gen. Berry of Maine.

The steamship City of Richmond,
which arrived in New York from Liver
pool on Tuesday, landed 1853 emigrants.
This is the largest number arriving by
one steamer since 1867, except on the
steamship Wieland, from Hamburg, June
last year, when 500 arrived. 1t is
estimated that there will be a very large
increase in emigration to the United
States this year.

A horrible tragedy, born of religious
frenzy, was committed by G. H. Free
man at Pocasset, Mass, the other day.
Actuated by what he termed command
from the Lord, he plunged knife into
a young child of his and offered her as
a sacrifice. He labored under the i'm
preston that the child would rise again
after three days. Freeman and his wife
are Second Adventists, and are appar-
emily completely deluded in religious
views. They are both in Jail and have
been charged with child murder. Free
man was born IN Highgate, Vt. He is
said to have the utmost confidence that
the Lord will Justify him in his horrible
deed. 1t is not remarkable, however,
that Mr.. Freeman should have gone
crazy over intense, long. continued and
feverish religious excitement. Other,
better and stronger men have made
mental shipwreck in the same way be-
fore now. What is remarkable about
the case is that Mrs. Freeman thinks the
bloody deed was all right, and that a
band of his co-religionists met at his
house after the terrible act was commit
ted, and instead of turning the murder
er over to the officers of the law, tried
to hush up the affair. Admitting thai
Freeman and his wife are both as crazy
as raving lunatics, it is strange that the
whole set should 60 mad at the same
time over the same question. 1t is alsc
strange, passing strange, that the lunat
ic was permitted to drive every one from
the house and arm himself for more
victims if any one dared approach him
The authorizes have arrested several per
sons as accessories to this murder.

THE RIGHT KIND OF RELIGIoN-Un-
der the above head the Brattleboro Re-
former reads a sermon about late case
of local insolvency of which the follow
ing are the closing paragraphs:
The man who gets into debt to the
amount of sixty thousand dollars, when
he has only twenty thousand to pay who
borrows money on the security Of his
supposed integrity and piety, who rep
resents himself as solvent, when he must
know he is not, who keeps promising
to pay when he knows that in all hu-
man probability he never can-such a
man never should flaunt the robes of
righteousness. Men have no right to
take advantage of their position as saw
ings bank trustees, to borrow the money
of their depositors, and pay it back at a
shilling on the dollar; when $4,000
is put into their hands in trust for
others. they have no right to use it for
their own speculations and enterprises
aud when they do, and lose it, let them
be spoken of as they deserve, and not
extolled for their crimes. Of course
they are public spirited and benevo-
lent" Such men always are, but gen.
erosity. with others funds, is no credit
to any man.
This kind of business is getting to be
altogether too common among deacons,
Sunday school superintendent and man.
ayers of trusts, and it should be treated
without gloves by newspapers and all
professed teachers of morality. What
this country needs to-day is less maudlir
sentimentality, cant and hypocrisy, and
more old-fashioned honesty and square
dealing. The true religion for the day
is that which gives l6 ounces to the
pound, pays 100 cents on the dollar, anc
sympathizes with the victim rather thar
the destroyer.
