We learn on what we consider good

on file siss the War Department letter
from j Rev Mr.. Bayliss, during the
" ar q, chaplain in one of the Union
Of Kentucky, demanding an
allowance for repairs on account ofIn-
iuries done to the Southern Methodist
Church, ut Catlettsbnrg, KY, BY the
forty-sccond Ohio regiment, whose
U.,lonel at the time (1862) was james
4. Garfield, now Republican candi-
date for the Presidency This allow
ance, the facts in the case being plain,
was granted. In connection with
this mutilation of the church m ques-
ton, it is moreover stated that Col.
Garfield allowed his regiment to per-
pctrat. an outrage which included
even the burning of the Bible and
hymn-book Of the stand, on the ground
that il was a South Methodist Church.
There are responsible gentlemen, cler
gymen and others, of Catlettsburg,
who are familiar with the events here
in referred to. We do not think, on
the whole, that Mr.. Garfieid's chances
for the Presidency, slight as they are,
would be much improved among Chris
tians if it were generally known that
during the war he was associated in
any way with SO wanton an act as
burning Bibles and hymn-books. Be
tween Bible-burner like Mr.. Garfield
and fighter of men like Hancnck, il
is not difficult to decide as to which
should receive the chaplet Of thu
brave.

PATCHES were received at the Navy
Department from Admiral Wy,nan, at
Port Royal, South Carolina, giving the
result Of his investigation OF the al

ed to Admiral Wyman to proceed at
once from Port Royal with the

authorities offered abundant evidence
