LIST CONVENTION.
Money to be Raised for the Education
of Young Men for the Ministry.

New YORK, Oct. 90.
Delegates to the Universalist General Con-
venton met again yesterday in Brooklyn
with President Jay in the chair. The fret
subject debated was the question of the ex-
tension of Sunday work, and a motion was
made for the committee to consider advanced
methods in Sabbath schools. The whole
subject was finally referred to committee
on the Rhode Island catechism. The report
of the committee on ministerial increase was
then brought up. More funds were needed
for the education Of young men for minis
ters. DR.. Swetzer said the sum of S25 900
could be raised by an assessment of 674 cents
upon each Universalist family in the United
States. DIR. Atwood suggested that the sum
be fixed at $4,000. An amendment was
made to reduce the sum to $4,000. A COM
promise was then decided upon of $l5, 200
and the convention voted to raise that sum
for the education of ministers.
In the evening three meetings were held
in different churches to accommodate the
crowds of people. Addresses were made by
several prominent speakers.

HORRIBLE ATROCITIES.
A Woman f'ulicly Flogged in Moscow
An Appeal to be Made by the Foreign
Residents to Their Governments.

LANGIA, Oct. %.
The cruelties practiced by the authorities
of Morocco, are sttracting the serious atten-
ton OF all foreign representatives, and an
appeal to their respective governments will
probably be made for foreign interference,
in order to stop the horrible atrocities which
are almost daily occurring on alleged crim-
mails for some imaginary offense trumped up
by spies for the purpose of retaining their
positions. Recently one of the officials of
this city caused poor woman who was en-
ciepte, to be flogged in the presence of her
husband and father. The woman's arms were
tied together, drawn over her head, and then
rope was fastened to stake to hold her in
that position. The lashes were laid on 80
heavily that the blood flowed freely from the
unfortunate creatures back Her aged father
and husband were compelled to witness her
terrible sufferings. The foreign residents
are greatly shocked at the occurrence of such
cruelties, and have signed a petition for a
protectiOnate

command of the federal forces Gen. Grant
stood between the two like q barrier warning
both sides to keep the peace. 1t is we'll
known that President Johnson asked Grant
oluntly which side he would take in such q
conflict and Grant replied THAT depends on
which side is the revolutionary party" 1t
was also well known about this same time
that confidential letters we're sent by the
secretary of the navy to leading naval officers,
severai of whom are still living, asking for
the same information.
BosroN, Oct. %.
Regarding the strange story said to have
been told to Chauncey NJ Depew hy Gen.
Grant. Gen. Butler said today, when asked
Why the matter was not brought out at the
impeachment trial OF Andrew johnson:
"There would be many reasons why that
matter could not have been brought into the
impeachment trial; because there was no
charge, no article Of impeachment, which
charged johnson with that ofiense, and such
evidence would be incompetent. Neither was
there any legal or proper evidence by which
It could have been proven, known to the pub
lie or to the members of the House at the
time. Gen. Grant, if he had been approach
ed BY the commander-in-ch chief with any prop
osition in confidence, that must exist between
the officers in regard to military movements,
could not disclose it.
There is another project of President John
sons as to revolutionizing the government,
which was not brought into the impeachment
proceedings. myself had some very strong
moral evidence upon two questions which
did not care to make known to the public in
the impeachment proceedings, but one of
which investigated secretly as chairman of
the committee for that purpose, and while
there was disclosed to me some very damag-
ing facts under the circumstances they were
not SO conclusive that deemed it proper to
exhibit the article of impeachment against
the President of the United States in that
behalf. still retain some of the evidence
that strongly tend to support my belief
The other proposition Of Mr.. johnson to
control the government, differing from that
OF Gen. Grants in measures to be taken, but
not in the end 20 be reached, it now seems to
me for the first time must have been made af-
ter Grant had refused to accede to Johnson's
proposition, and knowing now what had been
said to Grant, would seem to show that that
proposition was entertained because of Grants
refusal, and while that was known to me in
regard to 1t gave me strong belief that it
was not in shape to be brought before the
public, for, one dealing with the chief magis-
trate of his country, even if he has a strong
belief that he has been guilty Of wrong,
should not make that charge unless that be-
lief is supported by fully competent evidence.
