The London QUARTERLY Recae,c
contains crushing criticism of the
revised translation of the New Tes-
lament. Minute research and pro-
found scholarship are brought to
bear upon the work, the writer's
conclusion being that the revision is
full of gross errors, that many
emendations adopted are purely
conjectural, and that altogether the
old translation is still the best. The
article is. written by one of the most
eminent scholars of the day, and
can not fail to make a sensation.

A NEW YORK letter says the
southern element in New York in
creases every year. The migration
thither was greatest just after the
war, when everything in the south
was adrift, but it has continued
steadily ever since, though in a small
ler degree, and Gotham now has a
southern colony big enough to make
upa population for a pretty large
town. Quite number of the bro
kers in the stock, cotton and pro-
duce exchanges are southern men,
and a good many of them have
made themselves well off, and are
on solid ground, both socially and
financially.

TALMAGE declares, that the reason
why there is so much falling off in
church attendance is because there
is too much attempt to hang on to
the church styles of past age. On
the other hand, the Methodist min
listers assembled at Cincinnati de-
eide, that this falling off is due to
the fact that there is so much new
style in the churches. They hold
that the simple and effective manner
of preaching by John Wesley, the
great founder of Methodism, would
bring back the vast stray
ing flock, that, last of all things, finds
its way into the church door, and
thence to God. Mr.. Talmage may
strengthen his position by calling
attention to the vast congregations
that come to listen to him, but the
Methodist ministers could retort by
saying that people go to hear
Talmage, not because of the faith
he breaches, but that he
is one of the finest of ac-
tors. He picture hell and all
its glowing torments, and the devil
standing in the midst of his fiery
kingdom, lashing his tail with fury
at the descending sinners. and
then he can strike an attitude,
recoiling from the burning picture
he has painted, while his entire con-
gregation are seized with horror at
what appears to be the lurid flames
themselves and the demon IN per-
sonae- Then they awake from the
dream and find it was all word
painting, fine acting. That is the

A SALT LAKE dispatch says that
the suit brought by Campbell to an
nul Cannon's pretended certificate
of naturalization has been decided
by Chief Justice Hunter, the judge
holding that on the statements of
complainant and admissions of
defendant the certificate of Cannon
was void on its face, his pretended
naturalization being nullity. Thus,
the court in which Cannon pretends
TO have been naturalized twenty-five
years ago decides he is an alien, and
therefore that Governor Murray
was right in refusing to certify that
he had been duly elected 10 con-
gress. 1t is not supposed at Salt
Lake that the house OF representa-
tives can fail to take notice of this
action and be governed by it, and
thus it is regarded as virtually set

The Independent having reported
General Joseph Bates as having
said, in a speech at the late Brazos
river Improvement reunion, in Bra
zoria, that the honor was due Rep
resentative Jones for the work pro-
crossing at the mouth of the river,
General Bates publishes a card in
the Independent. in which he says:
"If it were not for the injustice
you have done to our other men,
bers of congress in your report of
my remarks at the barbecue ON the

Brazos river. While / recognize
Colonel Jones' services to us, and
wish to do him full justice, l do not
wish to be unjust to our other men,
bers of congress, who have gener-
ously given us their best efforts"
Of course the report, which is here
contradicted. was not intentional
on the part of the paper, and it does
the old and distinguished Brazorlan

der. A representative ofthe STATES
MAN was present at this reunion,

occupied by Gen. Bates, in referring
to the river Improvements affair be-

Nihllists declare that the only way
to right the ballot box is by force,
and that they propose to right mat

In the great cities of America they

it, and have already degraded what

THE GreeEback party cut so in
significant figure in the Ohio cleo
tiCn that it has been overlooked in
the returns. Out of a total vote of
S25, ,0O0the Greenbackers polled only
1000. AS Ohio gave birth TO the
greenback "idee" and nurtured it to
all the development it ever attained,
this pitiful support in an important
state election may De regarded as
the death-wail of the party. The
Greenback members of the next
congress viii probably consider
their constituency too small to enti-
tie them to separate representation.
These facts are not stated, however,
to discourage Colonel Jones and his
party in the fifth congressional dis
trict.

the other in Cromwell road.
Well, | nm bound to say
like it. To be sure, the ladies
happened to see in it were both
handsome and well set up, carrying
themselves like queens. But really
in itself, there appears nothing OBJ
jcciiOnable, and the dress certainly
contributes TO freedom, and, should
imagine, the comfort of the wearer.

Only instead ofthe dress and neither
garments being in cloth, those / saw
were of n black brocaded silk stuff
that fell gracefully, and looked
quiet and ladylike. Trouser
worn thus, with a long skirt over
them, are very different from the
loud, vulgar bloOmer costume of
former efforts in this direction; and
ii is just possible that the reform
may spread. But TO do SO it must
come from above, else society will
not haye il ON any consideration.
At the ladies' dress reform associa-
tion may be seen specimen of this
rational Dress as il is called. Ia
this the trousers are made very
wide, with deep flounce at the ex-
tremity, which combines with the
skirt worn over them, so that in all
ordinary situations no person could
possibly tell there was any differ
encc from the present dress of

EX-PosTAIAsTER GENERAL KEY
admits that General Tyner did SUBJ
NIT his report, concerning star route
operations in the west to him, and
chat he, Tyner's superior and the
head of the department. advised
Tyner to lock it up or keep it quiet.
In making this statement Key as
sumes part of the responsibility for
the suppression of that report, but
the question suggested is, did his
advice relieve Tyner of all further
official or moral obligation in the
premises ? Tyner had discovered
crookedness in a branch OF the goy-
ernment service entrusted to his
care and supervision T; he had left his
desk and his duties in the depart
ment at Washington and travelled
all through the west and northwest

object OF his trip, ostensibly, was TO
discover and correct errors or
wrongs in the service, fany existed,
aud otherwise improve it. The re-
suit was failure to give the govern
ment the benefit of his investiga-
tlons, and thus both Key and Tyner
become responsible for the wrongs
perpetrated against the government.

cations were brought before con-
gress about the same time and had
this official report been made, when
the whole matter was referred TO
