A letter from staff correspondent in Ten
nessee details the success OF Swiss colony
founded some years since on the Cumberland
Plateau The movement began with poor
promise, and had hard struggle for two or
three years, but has been successful at last in
creating comfortable home for number of
exceptionally poor Swiss, whose lot in the
older country would no doubt have been a
hard one.
The sermon which Mr.. Beecher preached
yesterday might almost be called an autobi-
Iocraphy. The theme was the need OF an
atonement, but the preacher was led, perhaps
without wholly intending it. into an almost
1mpassioned statement OF many OF ms own
beliefs and dssents, counting himself as more
orthodox than the orthodox upon what he re-
cards as the essentials of religion, but at
lacking, in characteristic fashion, many of the
accepted doctrines of the churches.
John Kelly has carried the Tammany prima-
ries, and will have General Committee more
thoroughly loyal probably than the last has
been of late. The detection in four districts
which rendered it advisable not to hold
elections in them until the party could
be- reorganized must he to Mr.. Kelly a
dlsoueting feature of the situation. For the
present, however, the victory is his. and he
retains his leadership by the suffrage of the
masses of Tammany.
The first feeling upon reading Mr.. Riddles
first public speech as q Spiritualist, which is
reported elsewhere, will be one of surprise
that he should have spoken so long and said
30 little. His talk is interesting, but not sub
stantial. As personal harangue, returning
tho compliments the newspapers have paid
him, and denouncing the editors Of religious
weekIies who ventuIed to hold views upon
the subject of his continued relations with
tho public schools of this city, 1t is
piquant; but as an exposition OF Spirit
ualism, or even a statement OF the
reasons for his own faith in it, 1t is without
form and void. 1t Is little curious to observe
that MIR. Riddle is still astonished that the mass
Of mankind will not accept spiritualism upon
