BEECHER AND HIS CHURCH.


New YORK, Dec. 29.-Henry Ward Beecher,
after he had concluded his sermon, to-day,
touched upon the alleged disaffection in his con-
gregation, owing to his action during the late
campaign. He alluded to his forty years pastor
ate, and said he never mixed politics with his
theology in the pulpit. He said he did not know
how far the trouble had spread but only learned
it from the newspapers If there were any pew
holders offended he did not know them He
had hoped the Republican party, which had done
SO much for the Nation, would get wisdom, but
he was bitterly disappointed. He would have shed
tears of Joy if that party had put in its platform
welcome to the South, and made one of its
great candidates a Southern man. From con
victions as deep as any he ever had, he entered
the canvass, and when he went into anything he
never went in by halves He cared nothing for
life, reputation or influence if his country might
not live together IN harmony. That under GER
tain conditions he did everything wisely he
would not say; that he made statements
he would not now make in a better light, he
would not undertake to say. He said his
congregation should have had confidence enough
in him not to have taken speech making
special plea and distorted its application. So
far as his political Judgment and endeavors
were concerned he looked upon them with un-
feigned admiration There were mistakes
and apologzed He did not want any
dissatlfed person to sneak away Let him come
to Beecher face to face, and tell him he is dis
satisfied, and Beecher would bless him. In re
lasion to pew rents, he did not care if they were
diminished; he had lived on a salary of l,5C0
when he first became pastor aud if necessary
could live upon it now If there majority
in the church, or strong minority, who no
longer wanted him, he would go. If the great
majority wished him to stay, he would die with
them, and nothing would drive him away If
he stayed, the congregation would have to re
ceive him, not on pitchfork, but in the palms of
their hands

CAPTURE OF A DESPERATE.
Sullivan, the Murderer of Carlin, Placed
in Jail at Miles City, NJ. T.

Mills CRY, NJ. T., Dec. 2S-A vigorous
search by officers and vigilantes was made for
two days and nights for Bob Sullivan who fed
Immediately after shooting Carlin on Thursday
afternoon. Jim and Frank Connolly found
him at ranch fifteen miles north
of here. The officers, knowing his
desperate character, stood on each
side of the door and called to him to surrender.
AS he emerged he threw up both hands, but in
the right held revolver thrown back so the
officers could not see it. AS as he gained sight
of Frank he commenced shooting then, throw
ing down the revolver, he grabbed a Sharp's
rife an continued firing. In the excitement
Dr. Carlin, with a three yearo old boy in
his arms, also ran out, when a ball struck him,
penetrating Carlins wrist and the childs neck,
and passing diagonally through. Sullivan then
escaped in the darkness. AT 3 o'clock this morn
ing, as they were topping a hll they saw an
object ahead which proved to be the desparado.
AS the Officers neared him, he lay down, and,
warning them he would not surrender
without further fight, offered to go ahead to
Miles City. Rather than shoot him the officers
told him to go on. They followed, and on an
irving here he gave up his rife and was placed
in Jail. Carlin was well-to-do sheep grower
who came from Findlay, \ His wife and
two children arrived here this afternoon. Sulli-
van has been known as one of the hardest
characters i'll Musselshell county. Much indig-
nation is expressed at the foul deed, and many
threats of lynching are heard.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-John r. Mclean is

Whitney, the son-in-law of Senator Payne will

of NIcLean's boasted visit to Cleveland, the

"a Democratic friend, in confidential mood

FRANCE AND CHINA.

The Former Sewers Its Official Relations by
Relieving Its Consul at Tien-Tsin.
LONDON, Dec. 28.-It is reported that Prime
Minister Ferry has recalled Patenotre, French
minister to China, and that the French consul at
Tien-Tsin has been ordered to Shanghai. The
latter's departure from Tien-Tsin sewers French
official relations with China
Marquis Tseng has warned Earl Granville that
the sale to France Of seven vessels of the Castle
and Monarch lines, now trading between Eng
land and the Cape of Good Hope, for the pur-
pose Of transporting French troops to China, is
a breach of neutrality. The English govern
ment has advised the owners Of the vessels that
no evasion of the foreign enlistment act will be
permitted. The semiofficial denial of the pur-
chase by the French government is not believed.

in so far as expenses of navigation are concerned
The counterpart of that wise enactment
would seem to be measure equalizing the cost
of construction of iron ships, business compar-
atively new in this country. The tariff, which
operates to raise the price of labor, makes the
cost Of American ships higher, while it gives no
support and can afford no protection to those en-
gagged in the foreign freighting business, since
their business is one of competition with the
shipowners of all nations in the field and beyond
reach of our laws. 1t IS important that this
country should be prepared to compete for sup
plying the world with ships, and equally i'm
portant that our ships should start with the
same advantage their competitors enjoy. The
Commissioner recommends the Offering
of bounties sufficiently large to encourage the
construction, by private enterprise, of fleet of
frstclass powerful mail steamers which could
be used with good effect in time of war as lighf
armed cruisers and transports.
A strong argument is also made in favor o.
having American seamen for American ships,
foreigners. On this point the Commissioners
says that in order to induce American lads to
follow the sea for a profession, some induce
ment might be offered with great advantage to
the merchant service, as well as a national pro
vision for trained seamen. A system of ap-
premiership is recommended to be established IN
pursuance of which American merchant vessels
engaged in foreign trade might receive a certain
fixed sum from the government for support and
instruction of apprentices carried on board for a
stated term of years. Such system would, it
is thought, do much to improve the average
STANDARD American seamen and repay the ma
tional expense in affording an available corps of
seafaring men, who could be relied upon in case
of emergency to help man the navy.
Further legislation is suggested in the diree-
tion of making more efficient laws for protee-
ton and punishment of sailors and the institu
ton of courts of inquiry in this country is rec
ommended, with power to punish officers and
seamen who, by carelessness, or incompetency.
cause collisions at sea.

HUNGER AND DEATH.
Terrible Experience of a Party of Teamsters
in the Mountains of Colorado.

DENVER, Col Dec. 27-The first story of
hunger, cold and death in the mountains for the
season comes from Eagle county n R. Smith,
of Dotsero, started week ago last Tuesday
with Eldridge Forsythe, with two teams, from
Dotsero for Coffee Pot Springs for lumber, and
on that night the storm began. Last Sunday
tho mail-carrier reached Dotsero from Carbonate
with the information that these men had not
been seen since Wednesday, and as the storm
had ragged with unabated fury it was known that
something had gone wrong with the missing
men. A relief party of five men was started at
once, and after struggle through the drift
ing snow and furious gale of wind they
found Forsythe half dead from hunger and
cold, and so weak that he was unable to move
When they asked for Smith, the famished man
poi nted to a bank of snow some distance away
and gasped: HE died yesterday morning and
boys, you are too late for eithar of u.s." The
white mound was examined. and Smiths body
was found half covered with snow and frozen
hard. In his clinched hand was scrap of paper
on which he had written with his benumbed
fingers brief word to his wife, as follows:
Dear Addie-We cannot live another night. want
you to have everything. ROCHE.
Forsythe was carried to Willow Springs and
cared for. His feet are badly frozen and he will
be crippled for life Nathaniel Rochester Smith
L
was one of the pioneers in that newly settled
region, and had faith in its future. His brother
Henry R. Smith, lives at Salida. Forsythe tells
the following story:
''Soon after their start on Tuesday they killed
deer. When the storm struck them they
thought it would be of brief duration, but on
Wednesday they found themselves hemmed in
on all sides by deep drifts, and they were una
BILE to get fuel to replentish their fire. They
were then left in the cold, with only raw deer
meat to eat On that day they saw the mail
carrier in the distance on his way to Dotsero,
moving along freely on snow-shoes. They tried
to signal him, but they could not, and saw him
disappear. With this failure their last hope
died. On Thursday morning the storm abated,
and Forsythe made an effort to get wood. He
was weak and could hardly move, and Smith
cried out to him, For Gods sake don't leave me
to die alone and Forsythe dropped where he
was found by the relief party For three days
they lived on snow and raw venison Forsythe
thinks Smith died some time during Thursday
night, but he cannot tell exactly"
