ANOTHER PREACHER, Rev. William
J. Bridells, has come to grief. For
eight years be was pastor Of a Pres.
byterian church at Marietta, Pa, and
during the time made periodical
visits to Philadelphia. when, with boon
companions he INDUCED in the pleas
ures of drunkenness. Finally he was
suspected by members Of the church,
and he resigned, though no charges
we're preferred against him. He inn
mediately became pastor OF the
Lehigh Avenue Presbyterian Church,
Philadelphia. and from drinking went
to worse-that is, be manifested an
unholy love for a pretty widow. His
wife, who had saoredly kept his secret
during all these long yearP, could not
endure q rival in bis affections, and
as he yielded not to her circumstances,
she exposed him to the church Off
ciaIs, and also removed the furniture
which was hers-from their house,
leaving him sick on bare foor. The
presbylesy has expelled him. and now
suit has been brought against him for
the beard OF the widow, with whom
he has lived since his disgrace.

The pension deficiency bill was

eet Of the democratic party. He Rd-
mired the courage of the democrats
in bringing forward such meas
ures, but the silence with
which they attempted to carry
them through was omiDous.
Why should marshsls be judicislly
appointed and supervisors be politi-
cally appointed? He pointed cut the
weaknesses OF the bill and It's incon-
sistencies. He wanted the yess and
nays on the Thurman's amendment.
He would not belieYe, until be saw it,
that this ukase of the grand sachem |
Of the majority would be obeyed.
The msioriIy we're American citizens
ami would hesitate, by legislative |
stab, to take from large numbers OF

outrsges, which the democrats over
looked, aud had gone into New Eng
land to try and find Acknowledgement. |
He made extensive reference to the
Louisiana frauds and ou,rsges; to the
Hamburg massacre and of the abor-
tive investigation of the democrats.
Butler said that what Rollins had
stated about South Carolina was q
contemplate calumuy, and be would
notice it hereafter.
Rollins said it was taken from the
sworn testimony of her citizens.
Lamar said he would, before the
session closed, repel the insinuation
about bis state.

The KaHOeh Case.

San Francisco, 26.-In the Kalloch
impeachment case, the morning SEES
sion of the coart was occupied by
argument on the question as &c
whether the Office of mayor comes
within the statutes providing for the
impeachment of officials, the court
finally deciding point in the affirms,
tive. The defense then made the
point that the acts committed by
Kalloch, which are the subject OF the
complaint, we're not done in bis
capacity as mayor, but as private
citizen, entirely without any iurisdic-
ton, station or responsibility. In
arguing the point the prosecution
made some admission that had the
appearance CT prejUdicing his case,
though not conclusiyely. Thus far
tue decisions of the court on the
points raised ia the demurrer are in
:svor of the prosecution, but the
decision on the last point named is
reserved pending further argument.
