Two important questions vexed the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal Conference at its
annual session in New York, one involving
the attitude of the church on shouting" and
the other touching the habit of splitting tObac-
CO juice. As regards the propriety and USE
fulness of shouting" there was little disa-
greement. By an almost unanimous vote
the bishops agreed that whatever kind of
noise ''the spirit moves q brother or sister to
make" should be encouraged. Az one OF
the bishops expressed it, "when the spirit
moves you have got to let it come out;" and
he added, II tell you, you can't have q regu-
lar old-fashioned, spiritmoving revival with
out the shouting" Speaking for himself. it
was only when sold Aunt Polly Parker
would fetch out one of her amens' that he
could "raise right up and make things howl -
As to the question of cleanliness, which we
have been told is next to godliness, the con-
ference was more divided. Brother Simmons
thought it behoooved the body ito express
its utter adherence and abomination of the
practice Of depositing decomposed particles
of juicy salivy upon the floor of this church. -
and he therefore moved that any bishop who
should be offended should be fined fifty cents
Apparently Zion church was not as literally
provided with spittoons as the halls of Con-
gress, so that the bishops had to use the floor
or not chew and they did not propose to
give up their privileges. A heated debate,
therefore. followed, ending in the defeat of
the motion. Free shouting and free splitting
have accordingly the sanction of the highest
diynitaries of the African NJ. +. church.

The failure of the firm of Grant 4 Ward.
and the downfall of the Marine National
Bank are very bad financial catastrophes.
and grow worse the more they are exam
ined. The management of the concerns
shows downright rsscality on a big scale.
Ward appears to be the big villain. Gen.
eral Grant and two sons seem to have
been ignorant of the operations carried on
by Ward. 1t is surprising that so many
men of means and experience should have
trusted their funds in the hands of the
young men who managed these csncerns.
General Grant is stripped of all his prop
erty. 1t is said. except his interest in the
$25o,000 trust fund raised for him. This
will afford him good support, and wealthy
friends will be glad to contribute to aid
him.

tx Governor Newell of Washington
Territory, now Indian inspector and his
son, came up on Mondays boat and pro.
ceeded to 'Lapwai on his duties of in
spection on Tuesday morning. The
Governor is of the opinion that congress
will not admit Washington Territory as
a state at the present session. He thinks
however, that yhen Washington is ad-
mitted the northern counties of Idaho
will form part of the new state and
says there is no good reason why they
should not. He further says that out of
the Al 900 votes at the last election 10
Washington Territory, about 10000
were women, leaving $4,000 male voters,
which, if We give five inhabitants to each
voter will give $4,000 inhabitants to
Washington Territory. Adding to this
the population of the four counties of
North Idaho which had about $500
votes, multiplying by five for the popula-
ton, making lG,5OO, which swells the
aggregate of the new state of Washing
ton to l6l 800.
