The editor of New York paper in treat
ing Senator Ingalls, address on the occasion
Of the Hill memorial services, denounced
our senior Senator a an infidel and heath
en-. Mr.. Ingalls, replied as follows, using
language that cannot be misunderstood.
S1R:-I have received marked cory of
the Baptist Weekly of February 8, which
you were good enough to send me. In my
tribute to the memory of Senator Hill,
whom honored % q man and loved az
friend, I presented those reflections which
arise in thoughtful minds when meditating
upon the impenetrable mystery which wells
the future state of man from all except the
editors of the Baptist Weekly. I suggested
that the argument of immortality was based
upon the imperfection and incompleteness
of earthly careers, even the longest and most
fortunate, unless supplemented and rounded
out hereafter, and affirmed that from this
standpoint I knew of no one whose life was
20 rich in prophecy of future existence as
that of Senator Hill.
still further stated that, though his sun
went down at noon, it sank amid the pa
thetic splendor of an eternal dawn. Upon
this you published the sttached paragraphs
of ny speech, and tell your readers, if you
have any, that I am heather and an in6del.
If your are Christian prefer to be hea-
then. II your religion prompts or permits
you without provocation to libel those with
whose views on the great problem of hu-
man destiny you do not agree, I prefer to
be an infidel.' But l am neither one nor the
other. I have had some doubts hitherto
whether eternal punishment was consistent
with Infinite love, but I am quite sure that
If there is no hell for such bigoted slander-
ers and malignant liars as you there ought
to be.
With great respect, your obedient servant.

THE UTILITY OF THE COUNT
NEWSPAPER.

THE UTILITY OF THE COUNTY
NEWSPAPER.
In the building up, and keeping up of q
town, and the development of country no
one agency does 80 much as the newspaper.
Even the poorest country newspapers we
have published in Kansas, do more for their
towns than any half dozen of the most enter
prising citizens in them. To-day Kansas,
built up on the great American desert is
among the foremost states in the Union, and
thi, is to q very great extent the work OF her
newspapers. Without her papers, Kansas
would to-day be the great Anne rican desert
still. If town or county want emigration,
if they want the price of real estate to still
increase, if they want an influx of capital,
and an increase of trade and commerce, let
them keep their newspaper large and plump
and showing the evidence Of abundance of
provender. The minute such one strikes
the eye of citizen of a distant state, it set
ties on bis mind the character of the town
where i. is published, for every body knows
that thin, lean, miserable looking newspapers,
In any town, is the best investment they
make, in business point Of view. With
editors and proprie!ors, success depends
much more upon business capacity than it
does on literary genus-soue will give their
town more than others for the money, but
the policy of every town of any size should
keep their paper fat, keep them looking we'll,
for they 60 everywhere, and by them the
town is sestimated.-Parsons Eclipse.

Washington nIornIs.

Among tho many attractions of Washington
as place of residence, of which THE REPUB-
LrcAN has from time to time spoken may bo
mentioned its one hundred and two churches s.
There are fow cities in the United States
having more churches TO population than
Washington. These one hundred and two
churches or places of worship are divided as
follows: Hebrew, 9; Roman Catholic, IL (;
Protestant Episcopal, 81 Methodist Episco
pal, 20; Methodist Episcopal South, / Motho-
dist Protestant, 4 Congregational, 3; Bap.
tist, 6; Christian or Campbellite 1 Presby-
terian, 10; Universalist; 1 Unitarian, 1 ;
Friends meeting houses 81 New Jerusalem,
/ Lutheran, z; German Independent, 1 /;
German Reformed, 1 Reformed Episcopal, /.
The people and residents of Washington
are a churchgoing people. The churches are
almost always well filled on Sunday and the
streets of the city on that day and night are
rs quiet as . country village. Ambitions and
not very reliable newspaper correspondents
in the absence of something better to write
ana in some instances perhaps with the view
of creating prejudice against this city, are
wont to writo of the great dissipation in
Washington. We do not hesitate to say that
there is not a city of anything near its popu-
lation in the United States in which more
evidences of dissipation are not seen than in
Washington. During the sessions of congress
this city is filled with visitors from all the
states and territories, and not unfrequently
their dissipation is unjustly charged to the
resident population.
If a member of congress, cabinet officer, or
other prominent man is found intoxicated
it is heralded all over the country by news
paper correspondents and by the Associated
Press as an evidence of Washington immor-
ality, while the cities In which the newspa.
pers are published containing the dispatches
doubtless furnish dozen cases more daily Of
intoxicated leading citizens than can be
found hero

he concludes by saying he cannot harmonize
tho vigorous prosecution of citizens for usi ng
harmless means to raise money for a benefi-
cent purpose with the countonancng of bet.
ting,pool selling, and gambling at horse races.
Though the colonel may have, technically,
o little tho worst of tho argument, ho will

The Hiu investigation.

Quite sensation was produced Saturday
in connection with the Hill investigation.
Assistant Secretary New, chairman of tho
committee, had just announced that thore
would be no session for the day, when Mr.
Coleman, counsel for Mr.. Murch, said with
some warmth that he wished to call the at
tention of the committee to what he regarded
as gross impertinence both to himself and to
D1r. New. He then produced requisition made
several days ago by Mr.. Murch upon Mr.. Hill
for tho papers relating to the contracts for
statuary for the Philadelphia public build
ing. The request was indorsed by Mr.
New, with an order for tho production
Of the papers. On the reverse side
was Mr.. Hills Endorsement refusing
to furnish the desired papers for the reason
that the statuary in question was not men,
toned in the charges being investigated.
Mr.. Coleman characterized this refusal rs an
insult to the chairman Of the committee and
his (HilPs) superior. Mr. Coleman then
gave notice that the prosecution proposed to
take up the public buildings at st. Louis,
Chicago, Cincinnati, and other places, and to
show that above S500O,0O0 of the public
funds had been illegally expended. Mr..
MuTch stated Saturday evening that among
the papers which he had been enabled to
extort from the supervising architects
officer was one showing that in ono
instance, after contracts had been made an
order was made by the architect Increasing
the compensation of the contractors 25 per
cent, or 81 per cubic foot for cutting and
polishing stone for the Philadelphia public
building. "As to the contract for statuary
for that building" said Mr.. Murch sit was
awarded to Assistant Secretary French's SON.

ROME, May 2s.-The Carroll monument

trance into Palermo. The monument is
erected in memory of the brothers John and
Henry Carroll, who died under the walls of
Rome on Oct. %, 1867. While tho Carl
baldians were fighting at the frontier with
the pOpe's soldiers, tho fight which ended at
Montana, seventy-eight young men went to-
ward Rome to villa Glori to aid the revolu-
tionsts in the city and to storm If possible

attempt was checked by tho Papal zouaves.
John Carroll was killed on the spot Henry

The Trade Dollar.

The trade dollar is great nuisance. Or
dinary people take it in change from mel
chants and other tradesmen without giving
it any scrutiny. When they offer it they are
told it is only worth ninety cents.
The produce merchants of New York, or
at least number of them, have agreed not
to receiye the trade dalar after the fifteenth
instant except at discount.
The secretary of the treasury, under the
law, can order the coming of silver to the
amount of four millions of standard dollars
per month. Let him exchange the trade
dollars for standard dollars, or in some other
way call in the trade dollars and have them
reconed into standard dollars and rid the
country of dollars issued by tho government
which in fact are not dollars.
In this connection, why not stop the coin
ago of the three-cent nickle pieces, which
are so much like the ten-cent silver coins
and if three-cent coin is necessary, let it be
made of copper.

One of the healthiest signs Of our modern politi-

something must be done. 1t Is of little moment to
