The Vacancy in Dwight Place Church
 To Re EilIed-The Call Unan1s
 At special meeting of the Dwight Place church held last evening it was voted unani- mously to extend call to Rev. J. E. Twitch- ell, D. D., of Boston. Dr. Twitchell was To- cated in Cleveland, Ohio, for eight or nine years and for the past three years has been preaching near Boston. He has notpreached on trial at Dwight Place, his ability as g preacher and excellence as a pastor being so well known that this was not deemed nec- essary. The call being unanimous, it is thought there is doubt about it's accept ance. The church society will no doubt rat ify the action of the church proper at an early day.

TILE FENCE Question:

The House bill to prohibit tho fencing of
public lands, which makes 1t lawful for any
citizen or settler to remove such fences ut will,
has been amended in the Senate by re-
curing the removal of fences to be undertaken
by the United States Marshal. and if need be,
the military. Certainly if it is desired that the
bill shall be anything more than dead letter,
the above amendment ought to be insisted
upon; for as it stood it could not be of much
service to the settlers. The evil against which
it is directed springs directly from the usurpa-
tiOns of the cattle-men. Because they have the
physical force at command to defy individual
settlers, these new and powerful corporations
have fenced in immense tracts of public land.
To tell the settlers that they may pull these
fences down if they choose Is really to mock at
them. If members of Congress were to ride
through the cattle regions they would OCCASION
ally come upon enormous stretches of fence,
garnished at regular intervals with plainly
written or printed notices, denOuncing sudden
death upon whatsoever shall modest that fence
And nasmuch as the cowboys stand ready to
put all such threats into instant execution, tho
settlers are not likely to take the risks involved
in the permission proposed to be accorded them
by Congress-
III the new fence law ia to be carried out, the
United States Marshal will have to do the work.
and he will need strong posse and probably
should have the use of troops. 1t may be that
the cattle-mcn would not resist the law, but
the sceneof operations isfaraway from civiliza-
ton, and. tho habit of carrying things in a
hgh-handed way may DO too strong for some
of them. They have dehed the law in fencing
in the public land. and they may be prepared
to defy it again. But We hold it to be quite GER
tain that 1t is worse than useless to leave the re-
moval OF illegal fences to tho settlers. They
have neither the organization nor the force to
do tho work. They are under the thumbs Of
tho cattle-meu. They stand in need of protec-
ton from the Governments protection which

ARMY AND STATE.

The British soldier fights as well as ever
The details of the battles of Abu Klea, Gubat
and Brit prove that whatever criticisms may
be directed against the military system, the
courage, steadiness and endurance of the rank
and file deserve the highest praise. Not one of
the conscript armies of the Continent could
have furnished flying column superior in
discipline and fighting qualities to the brigade
that crossed the Bayuda desert or to the force
that stOrmed the heights at Brit. That the
officers are even Drawer than the men is shown
by the lists of dead and wounded, and by the
fact that each column has lost its commander.
The generalship, moreover. has been as
brilliant as the fighting. General WOlseey has
been unjustly criticised for dividing 1s force
and sending weak column across the
desert. The slow progress made by Gen
earl Earle's column indicates clearly the
wisdom of the bold dash from KOrti to
Metemneh. General Wolseley perceived that
il the river route were to be followed Khar-
toum could not be reached for several months.
lie could not afford to take the risks OF delay.
The object Of the expedition was to effect the
rescue of General Gordon, and as the result
proved, he adopted the best as well rs boldest
expedent. If Colonel Wilson's force had ar
rived at KhartOum twenty fOur or possibly
forty-eight hours earlier, the catastrophe would
