GEN. JOHNSON FOE ALDERMAN.

We understand call is in circulation
in the Third precinct of the Fourth ward
asking Gen. johnson to stand as an
independent candidate for Alder
man in that district. This, also,
is a move in the right direction
Our local interests demand the selection
of first-class men. The nominee In that
precinct last Friday night was made by a
gang of contractors, who know they can
not use Gen. Johnson. They do not want
a man of his known ability and
integrity, The game they desire is to
secure nominations byIboth political par.
ties of men who can be used to further
their interests and then they will consider
themselves safe. The Republicans have
it in their power at their primary meeting
tonight to block this game by selecting
Gen. johnson or leaving the field open
for an Independent citizens movement
such as was inaugurated in two other
precincts of the ward last night.
The GLOBE is a party paper, believes in
political parties and desires to see
them maintained, but it places
our local interests, our taxes, our ad-
yancement and an honest, square admin
istration of city affairs above the arena
of national politics. And here and
now it pledges itself to Join
hands with Democrats and Re-
publicans alike, regardless of party,
to labor for good government in our local
affairs. If the Democrats make unfit
nominations, as they VIGOROUSLY have in
the Fourth ward, they should be repudi-
ated and repudaited SO emphatically
that the trump of Gabriel
cannot recall them to life. This is the
GLOBE platform, not for this election but
for all our local elections. Our aldermen
and our school inspectors can wreck the
city, if such class as we are criticising
are allowed to control our public affairs,
and no partisan appeal should blind any
one sufficiently to support them. At all
events, the GLOBE washes its hands of all
such Democratic nominations. They do
not represent the party, they
do not represent the people,
and only represent gang
of their own whose domination in our
city government would be death blow
to all our vital interests. We desire to
see the rebuke so emphatic that never
again will such crowd have the te-
menity to appear before the public. Let
them be wiped out, root and branch,
without so much as leaving mound to
mark their resting places.

The claim of Stalwart politicians that
Lowell has been recalled because he has
neglected to protect the interests of
American citizens at the Court Of ST..
James is too transparent a political fraud
to deceive any one. The truth is he is
recalled in order to make room for Stall
wart with Stalwart backing in the Sen
ate. 1t would be well for the President
to stir up the Secretary of State if he
wants Americans protected in their
rights. This would be practical. To re-
move Lowell is only hypocrisy.

HE London Christian, speaking Of the
great Catholic bank, called L'Union Gen
erale, says ut cannot be doubted that
the objects contemplated were nothing
less than to obtain firm hold of Catholic
France by the strongest of all earthly
powers-the control of its resources then
to use those resources to supply the sin
ews of war in the Ultramontane effort 10
overthrow the Republic and effect a
counter-revolution. This is made clear
when one reads the list of names form
ing the Council of Administration.
Among them figures the Due de Broglie,
who ruled France from May to Novem-
Der, 1877 Eugene Veuillot, of Il U1aiUerS,
more Ultramontane than Rome itself; M.
d Harcourt, Marshal MacMahon's right
hand man; and the Vicomte Mayol de
Lup@, director of the official organ of the
Comte de Chambord. Orleanism, Ultra
montanism, the Septennate, Legitimacy,
the Jesuits, were all associated in the
Union Generate. Who can doubt that
their object was the destruction of the
common enemy? Now all are involved
in one common disgrace and ruin.
Last October the Bank appeared at
the pinnacle of success. It's stock rose at
the rate of so per cent. All this was fc-
titious; how it was managed remains to
be explained. Certain it is that the ruin
is immense. Five persons in Paris at
tempted suicide on the day the failure
was announced; one unfortunate sufferer
has since blown out his brains. The latest
suicide recorded is that of an eminent
agriculturist, the Marquis de Jocas. This
unfortunate gentleman had involved him
self to the extent of 100000 francs in the
affairs Of the bank, besides considerable
sums confded to his care by relations and
and friends. A banker in the Chausee
dAutin loses 100000 francs, and is
completely ruined One able loses 3d.
900 francs, another $4,000 francs. The
losses of the Comte de Chambord are not
known, but they are believed to be con-
siderable. The Jesuits, represented by
M. Rant, lose 100000 francs"

THE SABBATH.

The policy of opening the public libra
ries, museums, and art galleries in New
York on the Sabbath, is subject of earn
est discussion both in the religious and
secular papers Of that city.
Whatever is done in reference to this
matter in New York, will have its inhu-
ence elsewhere, and for this reason the
question is one which concerns every city
In the land. In answer to circular sent
to the clergymen of New York, more than
three-fourths of those who responded OPP
posed earnestly the proposition. Among
the secular journals advocating the meas
ure the Herald is conspicuous, urging, as
it does, the shallow plea, by which any
evil may be justified, that other things
quite as bad are already tolerated. 1t
says
ION this day almost every variety of public
amusement, recreation, and enjoyment is in

ally"
We can understand how the facts men
toned by the Herald should excite alarm
and lead Christians to consider what can
be done to check the growing evil of Sec
u!arising the Sabbath day. But certainly
they afford no argument for legalising
measure which will tend to reconcile the
public to the destruction of all distinction
between the Sabbath and the other days
of the week.

THE METHoDIsTs of this city were
favored last Sabbath with the presence of
two distinguished members of the Irish
Methodist Conference, both from Dublin.
Rev. Oliver McCutcheon, D. D., preached
at the Clay Street Methodist church. and
Rev. William Crook, D. D., preached in
the morning at the Broad Street church
and in the evening at the Centenary
church.
They have come to this country to
solicit aid for extending the work of the
Methodist church in Ireland. Dr. Crook
stated in brief address after his sermon
on Sabbath night, that in consequence of
the disestablishment of the Episcopal
Church, about eleven years ago, great
many small congregations of Protestants
in the west and southwest parts of Ire
land had been left without any Protes-
tant ministrations. There are now 900
less Episcopalian ministers than there
were before the disestablishment, and
while those who remain are doing their
utmost to supply the small congregations,
there had been created necessity for the
special work of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. The opportunity was presented
to it of supplying, by its system of itin-
erancy, many villages and small towns
which otherwise would have to be aban
doned by the Protestants.

THOSE WHO REJECT the doctrine Of the

patent to every mans observation, when
he looks at the moral condition of the

the atonement, Gods making provision
for the salvation Of the fallen race, have
no scheme to propose that commends it
self to an enlightened and awakened con-
