TRAVESTY ON DIVINE

The late Gar OF Russia has been dead
now verGing on two years and while his
son reigus is his stead the formal act
Of coronation has not yet occurred
First It was announced that decorou-
period for mourning would be allowed
to elapse That period expired and
date after date was set for the ilnpos
Ing pageant, only 10 De postponed time
after time, on various pretexts Thel
the formal announcement was made
that the coronation would certainly take
place in June. But intelligence Of fresh
and terrible nihiIist plots is revealed.
European sovereigns are warned that It
viii be healthy for them 70 stay away
from the proposed ceremony; and the
Gar himself seems imbued with the
idea that whatever else he may do this
formal assumption OF imperial nuthori-
ty is fraught with some mysterious dan
ger So the cable announces that the
coronation is to be deferred another
year. This is u significant spectacle
a self-styled ruler by divine right,
crownless amid his millions of sub
iects, shrinking from the mere tinseled
ceremonies that have no intrinsic value,
save that they are deemed appropriate
under all forms Of government as sym
bolical of actual authority and power
It is the greatest travesty the world has
ever witnessed upon the divine right

AWIFE'S CITIZENSHIP

The Washington dispatches report the
decision, by the French-American claims
commission, now sitting at the nationa.
capitol Of decidedly novel question
involving the principle of wife's cit;
zenship. A French lady of Louisiana
brought before the commiss on q claim
Of $4,000, for losses inflicted by the
Union army during the war. It8ppears
that some time before the war she had
married an nnnaturalized French resi-
dent OF Louisiana. Afterwards, against
her protest, her husband was natural
ized. She continued to assert her citi-
zeuship Of France, and several tines
during the war sought the protection of
the French consulate in New Orleans.
The claims commission has decided that
the naturalization Of the husband car
ried with 1t the American citizenship of
the wife, and although the property de-
stroyed by the Union army belonged to
the latter, the commission has decided
that it has no jurisdiction of the claim.
inasmuch az it does not belong to u citi-
zen or a subject of France. This decis-
ion will rule out several other large
claims pending before the commission.

FINISHED IT'S LABORS.

Our Southern Methodist friends, who
reap the dispatches this morning, will
note the quadrennial conference of their
church, III session at Nashville since
tee Sd instant, finished its labors and
adjourned yesterday, to meet at Rich
mond, Virginia, in 1886. The chief work
of the body, interesting to secular read
ers, has been the election of the four
new bishops, although We make no
doubt many other important matters,
routine IN nature. have received atten-
tlon and been disposed Of. The closing
hours OF the session appear to have
been given up to contest over the prop
osltlon to change or rather modify the
name of the church. Action of some
klud was anticipated i'll this line. True,
IT Is an apparently small matter, and
yet If has caused much agitation in the
church. Efforts have been made in
preceding conferences to drop the cum
brous sutfix South" but, as in this
latest ms 'ance, they failed. The name
is awkward, not to say out of place in
such connection. At the time ii WAS
assumed the church was confined in
its operations exclusively to the southern
states. But it has no such geographical
limits now. Its extensive borders are
expanding in all directions and in the
western and Pacific slope states
especially, where it has pushed
its work during the past few
years, the unfortunate sutix has polit-
ical odor that has curtailed the useful
ness OF its ministry. All these points
were no doubt fully brought out III the
debate, but the old name party as usual
won the day, DR.. McFerrins substitute
being merely shrewd move to get the
name-changiug proposition where it
viii be quietly aud gradually shelved,
as one subordinate conference after an
other takes action. But these are mat
tiers that DO not concern anybody but
Methodists, and are hence not strictly
within the domain OF secular criticism,
save us they may be considered by the
secular mind when the church
would fam recruit its ranks from
the secular world, as it
has done in the past and must do in the
future if 1t would hold Its own. Evi-
dences of the old bitter partizau feeling
were plainly dlscernable in the dellber-
ations of this conference. Practical fra
ternity with the kindred branch seems
as far away as ever, but we pre-
sumo If the church feels 1t can afford
such state of affairs outsiders ought to
be content Hence, without criticism
on the work OF the conference one can
but hope that what has been done may
be productive of good. There is plenty
Of work for churches to do these days
whether they be northern OF southern
churches. Il hey can lead the sinner to
heaven the recording angel viii hardly
ask him what state he halls from or what
ticket he voted while lingering III this
vale of tears.

Several Of the religious papers in New

strong grounds against the ringing of
church bells on Sunday, asserting that
in many instances they are common
nuisance The Observer says:
The common veal does not demand
any such disturbance as that of rousinC
and annoying thousands for the purpose
OF informinga half-doznn people every
day in the year that the hour Is at hand
in which they are accustomed regularly
to attend a religious service. Nor is 1t
any more neces- -ary on Sunday in such a
city as this, where every family, however
poor, has its clock, and almost every in

If our citizens and our civil authorities

From a Washington Letter


An octoroon now here, who is called
Marie Selika, is said to have phenom-
enal voice, and ex-senator Bruce, Fred.
Douglass aud others of the best class of
colored people, along with some few re-
publicans-they don't mind doing little
things like this that don't cost money
or time-have invited her to give a con
cert, before her departure for Europe to
cultiya'e her voice. 1t Is strange that
more attention has not been paid h. the
musical education Of the negro. At the
Hampton Normal school III Virginia
much is done towards teaching them
glees and part songs-and something
also TO preserve the genuine negro mel
odies. These last are in danger of dying
out, the negroes regarding them as a
vestigc of their servitude and becoming
anxious to forget them. When they are
entirely lost they Will begin to appre-
ciate the beauty and pathos of their
