Reported Conversion Of Bro. Moody.

A correspondent of the Anserscon Israe1its,
writing from Baltimore, represents that Mr..
Moody the revivalist, who has been laboring
in that city. has met with great change OF
heart or mind with respect 10 the Jews, and
says that he has ''given up the idea OF max
ing converts among them, for he now colsid-
ers that the Jews are the best people in the
country. and that their religion is like their
goods, which they sell cheap, because they
are satisfied with small profits"

Another Change im the Japanese Gov
esFssRenE.


SAN FRANCJsoo, Aay q. - okohanla ad-
vices OF Aprli % report suotlie. change in the
vacillating plans OF tte Japanese Govern
ment respecting The treaty revision. Two
years ago it was determined to negotiate new
treaties at the several capitals of the treaty
powers, beginning with the United States.
The result of that initial experiment was SO
bad however, and the introduction of the
final clause, the responsibility of which is
now openly acknowledged by Japanese off,
cials, that the proceedings were stayed.
Meanwhile the erroneous step alleged TO have
been taken by the japanese envoy at London,
who neither orig ginated nor consented to the
not to rearrange the terms of the entire treaty
but simply to alter the scales of the custom
duties. The japanese Government opposed
such partial and imperfect revision, conse-
quently the movement was repudiated and
arrangements are now in progress for com.
plete revision il. Toxic, proceedings to begin
this summer. No important results are
hoped for, Japan having unfortunately be-
trayed weakness and fear to confront the
european States boldly by appending con-
dtional clause to the American treaty. The
course Of the japanese Foreign Office, far
from frank throughout the transactions, con-
cealed the existence of the qualifying clause
from the United States legation here. Then,
owing probably to irritation produced by at
tempts made to attribute it to outside inf1u-
ence and agency, it was finally found neces-
sary to make frank avowal. In reference
to the statement in the New York Times
Washington correspondent that the clause in
question was inserted at the instance of Sec
retarY Evarts II is desirable to state that the
Japanese Foreign Minister has publicly as
sumed all authority, and Yashida, late envoy
to Washington. declares that if any blame is
attached Mr.. Evarts must not be charged
with it,

SMALL FAvoRs THANKFULLY RECEIv-
ED.-The Repubhcon now says It does
not consider 10 ''revolutiouary"t put .
"rider" on an appropriation bin. How
quick these "supples-jacks' turnabout.
Only last week they were heaping praise
on Senator Ba;ard, because they hoped
he would be found voting against his
party and its caucus, since he had made
speech in the Senate in the late session
calling it revolutionary to put riders on
appropriation bills. Now, when Judge
Kelley declares IL is not "revolutiohary,
and that Garfield who had often voted IN
favor Of such bills with riders" on them +,
IL himself made TO deny his own
record; and Senator Bayari denies also
that he holds It to be revolutionary,
the Republican jumps around; agrees
with Judge Kelley and bows itself out of
It's dilemma in the following language :
awe never had anything to expect
from Senator Bayard, but we do know
from the way in which the Gazette has
condemned him for has course in Con-
gress, the anxiety is ON the other side,
the Presidency it will still be hard TO tell
in what party be may yet land. AT auy
rate his little spells of liberality that the
Gazette SO earnestly condemns Is clear
gain 10 the Republicans"
Well, we don think Senator Bayard
will be very much hurt by the loss of the
confidence of the Republican. The GA
zETTE has only advocated the policy OF
the great Democratic party, and han
never IN any case "condemned" Senator
Bayard.
But it will not follow the wake of an,
man into the doubtful paths. The GA
zETTE firmly believes in the use of part.
and party unity-that our government
cannot be properly and safely conducted
without it; and with due regard to pa
triotlsm, it is the duty Of all to unite oil
some great principles settled by careful
consideration and ripe experience. II
who goes astray from the great Demo
cratic Party commits just as great mis-
take As he who abandons the great le ad
: ing doctrines of the church. Senator Bay
ard is too wise, too able a statesman to b
, found anywhere else than in the lead o
the great party with which he has alway
labored to cooperate.
If the Republican ever gets in dout
again as to Senator Bayards position, W
: advice 1t to wait until it hears him speal
We can safely refer it to his speech ii
, the Senate yesterday.
