Under the above heading the New York
papers are reciting strange story, yet
unfortunately, true. Certain of the build
ings of that city, known as churches"
where some Of the Reverend clergy have
been 10 the habit of dispensing with the
Gospel, have opened their eyes to the fact
that the poor people were enjoying equal
privileges with the rich as far as learning
the way of salvation, and have concluded
to charge for admission. On Sunday the
18th inst, young girl was asked to pay
TOR her seat, but being penniless was una
BILE TO comply. She was forcibly elected
from her seat by the sexton, who placed
his arms about her waist aud dragged her
on her knees to the door of the church.
Those who are unable. to pay for seat in
the churches must not expect to enter the
heaven Of the rich, but are required we
suppose, 10 provide some place for them
selves, il they can.
This occurred at the Church of the
Epiphany, Roman Catholic, on Second
avenue between 22nd and 23d streets, Of
which the Reverend Father Burtsell is
pastor. Comment is unnecessary.

Evidently the three Republican
representatives from this district in
the State legislature are not Influenced by
the Union's editorials. Senator Ford and
Representatives SimoDson and Mock all
voted for Logan in the Republican caucus
Friday night.-DdveRpOrt Gazette,
And they evidently were not Influenced
by the wishes of nine-tenths of the re-
publicans of the state. By a judicious
manipulation of the party, which has been
solidified by the fraudulent executive Of
the national government, Logan has secur-
ed the caucus nomination. This he never
could have secured on the ground Of
craftsmanship or ability in anything ex-
cept political wire-pulling of the lowest
type.

cured and the grey hair restored to its
natural color, the hair stopped falling

LeaoistosOn Gazette: Every paper in
the United States ought occasionally to
keep the fact before it's readers that burnt
corn is a sure and speedy cure for hog
cholera. The best way is to make pile
of corn on the cobs, effectually scorch it,
aud then give the affected hogs free &C.
cess to it. This remedy was discovered
by Z. E. Locke, Esq, at the time his
distilery was burnt in this country, togeth-
err with large lot Of store corn, which
was so much injured as to be unfit for use,
and was hauled out and greedily eaten by
the hogs, several of which were dying
daily. After the second day not single
hog was lost, and the disease entirely dis
appeared. The remedy has been tried in
a number of cases since, and never failed.

Able dissenting opinion from Justices
Clifford and Field of the Supreme
Gourr

Court.
In November, 1864, a citizen named
Bean, then residing in Canada, was arrest
cd while passing through Vermont, by an
order of the president, and without due
process OF law" was confined in the state
prison for six mouths and then released on
bail. The excuse offered for this gio
outrage upon citizen, as given by the
deputy provost marshals making the ar
rest, was that they suspected him OF con-
nigauce at Two desertion of two substitutes
from the army. The charge was proven
groundless and Bean sued for damages
for false imprisonment. The decision of
the supreme court, holds, as iustiGable,
the acts Of the provost marshals, and FROM
this, Justices Clifford and Field write "A
dissenting opinion, which will be found be-
low:
The doctrine sometimes advanced by
men, with more zeal than wisdom, that
whenever war exists in one part of the
country the constitutional guarantees of
personal liberty and the rights of property.
are suspended everywhere, has no foun-
dation in the principles of common law,
the teachings Of our ancestors, or the
language OF the constitution, and is at
variance with every just notion OF a free
government. Our form of civil polity is
not such rickety and iIi-iointed structure,
that when one part is disturbed the whole
is thrown into confusion and iostled 10 it's
foundations. The fact that rebellion ex-
listed in one portion OF the country could
not have the effect of superseding or
suspGudiBg the laws and constitution

1t. The war in the southern states did NOT
disturb Vermont from her constitutional

theory that war and disturbance elsewhere
could destroy the security given by her Ia IS

hons and the constitutional guarantees for
the protection ct the personal liberty of

enforcement, remained there as completely

OF the United States were as capable of
