Professor Braden's Lecture Last Night

Notwithstanding the fire, just at the time
OF assembling, last night Professor Braden
was greeted by an audience that half filled
the large chapel of the female college, and
among thom were many of the leading in
tellects of the city, including lawyers,
physicians, ministers, merchants, etc.
distinctive features of the Christian
religion. He passed in rapid review before
the anxious audience the iniinitude of Gods
nature, the creation of the universe by His
almighty fiat, His revelation of His will by
inspiration of men, the performing of mira
cles as credentials of inspiration, the free
will and responsibility Of human intelli-
gences, the atonemcnt mediation
and perfect model of Christ, the
sinfulness of man and the punishment of
sin, the pure worship, holy life and glorious
promises set forth in the everlasting gospel.
He laid his foundation deep in the natural
fitness OF things and right reason, reared
upon it a superstructure both rational and
according to revelation, and crowned the
whole with such halo of divine
promises and holy aspirations that
all were ready to exclaim with Paul, 81 am
not ashamed of the Christ"
At the conclusion of the lecture, Profess
sor Braden, in response to inquiries, gave
an account of the discovery of Colonel In
gcrsolls plagiarism from DR.. Gum, and
the controversy that has grown out of it.
Tonight is Mr.. Braden's last night He
will discuss the subject, "Can Free Thought
and Modern Development outgrow Chris
tianity?"

BLAINE AND ROsECRANs

The distinguished ex.secretary cannot ex-
list, 1t appears, for any length OF time, with
out getting into controversy with some
body. Fighting seems to be BLAINE's chief
delight, but We can't say whether this arises
from his desire of no,oricty or is part of
his nature. Probably both reasons enter
into the composition of this fact His last,
and by no means creditabe, difficulty is
with RosKcRAss with reference to the
statement by BLAINE in his late
eulogy, rejecting upon the handling of
tho army by the famous general when
Mr.. GARFIELD was one of his licu,enants.
It's all well enough for Mn. BLAINE and
GENERAL RosEcRASs, or their respective
friends, to quarrel over records or diner in
opinion and publish 1t to the world. They
are prominent characters, historical, and
any such controversy might be useful
as means of fixing historical facts more
clearly; but the manner in which the
BLAINE side of the affair are attcmptinl
to answer RosrcRANs protest against
tnc TVHtVtiouS lnuuc OH HuHn III lnt
eulogy as mentioned, is by no mean.
commcndablc, They are simply using the
evidence of GARrgLD's duplicity, and
back-biting of friend to prove what
would not otherwise amount to anything.
BLAINE is unfortunate in all his "little diff
fercnccs" of opinion, and is Just as con.
stantly getting his friends introublc. mth
present instance, it Is unfortunate for GAR.
FIELDS memory that his letter to Mr.,
CHASE, and marked Confidential" should
ever have been published. GENERAL Rosg-
GRAMS is, so far as acknowledgements and ca
rccr are concerned, In history, BLAINg is
one Of the first men Of the country, and the
whole trouble about which so much is
being said is over simple difference OF
opinion as to the conducting campaign
twenty years ago. In any other light than
that in which IL places GARrlEip, its very
silly matter to say so much about, but Us
calculated to uncover and render promi.
nent very bad element In u great mans
character IL has u quasi.historcal and a
very important phase, and it is to DO regret.
tod throughout, There is an ugly feature
OF betrayed confidence In Il all round.

REDIsrRICrING AND oERRYMAND-
ERUNG

The greatest political cheek found any
where will be most generally discovered in
Massachusetts,, the originator Of many pecu-
lia political methods oftener successful
than right, and among which is the now
famous and widely known practice OF ger
rymandering. The latest proposed appil'
cation Of this method that we have had our
attention directed to also comes from Massa-
chusetts, and II is no less scheme than to
cut Boston into five different parts
and attach each one OF them to a
rural district and by this means
get five republican representatives where
now there are only four. The city is en-
| titled TO two congressman from its popula-
ton, and for convenience as well as mat
ter of right, the city should be made into
| two districts and send two representatives
to Washington. Instead Of this, the plants
proposed as before mentioned, What the
result will be we cannot OF course tell, nor
do we care, indeed, as to this Boston work,
for we mo not directly enough
interested therein. Our interest in
that direction is only such rs II
citizen feels in the use or abuse
of principles in public affairs. What we do
desire to say is that the indications are eX-
ccedngly good for more of this same gerry
mandcring in the United States under this
new apportonment than has ever been seen
before, here or elsewhere. In fact il is more
than probable that it will be resorted to
everywhere in the union where changes are
to occur, and yet nothing could be more dis
asirous in its general effect. II simply sub
ordinates every other consideration or in
tercst, however significant to the mere cal
culations OF party or men. The one
subject of all others and the
only one worthy of notice at all in
redistricting is simply an identity of mate
rial or commercial interests, and of people,
in their manners and nationality, so far as
possible. This is the only correct just, or
sensible rule. To neglect this is to betray
the people aud invariably produce conius-
ion. 1t often happens not only in the lar
ger, but in the smaller states that people
live in adjoining counties with very diverse
pursuits and interests, and if these people
and their special industry, each can be rep
resented separately, it will be
of course, the most preferable
and just arrangement. 1t is
to be most sincerely hoped that the press
