DIR. TALMAGE.

The RgGlsryR is inreceipt Of the Brooklyn
Magazine for January 1855. Itis bright,
clean publication ladened with good
things from the better literary world.
Several pages are devoted to testimonials
from leading divines and eminent men
from all over the country and some parts OF
Great Britain. which are devoted to the
praise and worth of Rev. 7. De WIrT TAI
MACE, D. D. They are all choice and beau
tiful pieces Of word painting and show in
what high estimation this modern evangelist
is held. The following from Mr.. BEEcHER
COugraulating Mr., TALNAGE upon having
attained his Ghy-third year is deserved
tribute 10 this eminent divine:
24HrE> STREET, BROOKLYN, n. "
December IL, 1884.
Ny Dear .Ir. Talmage:
congratulate you most heartily on at
tanning the ripe age Of %! From the
summit Of these years may you, like Moses,
look over 6ity more, but, unlike Moses, be
spared to 20 over and possess them.
Nav labor sit lightly upon you! May
your audience grow larger and your cares
grow less until heaven calls you home, and
there largest Of all, may you find q great
multitude whom you have helped on their
heavenly way. Fraternally yours,
HENRY WARD BEECHER.
The thousands who read Mr.. TALMAGE S
sermons in the REGISTER every week will no
doubt heartily concur with the REGISTER in
the sentiment expressed above. Ii is often
said Of Mr. TLvAGE that he is eccentric
and odd ia his teachings and sayings.
Even so. Such triaes are light as air
compared With the great good his teachings
are doing and should not be considered as
a halrin the balance. The world wants such
men as DR.. TArNAGE, and if there were
more Of them, who hesitsted not to hide
their light under a 5ushel, it would be al the
better.

THE SENATE.
Something Concerning One of the Greedy
Relief Vessels.

Something Concerning One of the Greedy
Relief Vessels.
/ A bill was passed in the Senate directing
the transfer of one Of the vessels Of the
Greely relief expedition to the Treasury
Department for revenue cutter, for use in
the waters in Alaeka, and authorizing the
retention Of the other two for use in the
navy as surveying vessels, or otherwise. In
submitting the report Mr.. Cameron said the
revenue cutter now in Alaska was INSULT.
cient for the purposes of the government.
Mr.. Mcpherson injured whether there was
any intention on the part of the govern
ment to return to the English government
the ship presented to the United States for
the purposes of the Greedy Relief Expedi-
ton. Mr.. Cameron replied that under the
law, as it would stand without the passage
of this bill, the Secretary of the Navy
would be required to sell all the ships form
ing part of the relief expedition.
The Committee on Pensions reported
back favorably the bill introduced by Mr.. Al
lison Yesterday, embodying as separate
measure the legislative provisions inserted
By the House in the Pension bill, and gave
n0uce tndt lney WOuiu Gail uP thO ui'A ioi
action on Monday next.
The resolution calling for the historical
statement as to the pubic policy OF the Elk;
ecutive of the Confederate States, filed by
Gen. Sherman in the War Department, was
lad over till Monday at the request OF Mr.
Harris, of Tennessee.
Mr.. Morgan withdrew his motion to recon
slider thd vote by which the bill forfeiting
portion of the lands granted to the Oregon
Central railroad was passed the other day,
so the bill, with the Senate amendments,
goes back to the House for concurrence.
Mr.. Morgan stated that the reason he
moved a reconsideration was to ascertain
whether the Senators still adhered to the
principle of the amendment which the Sen.
ate had inserted in the Atlantic and Pacific
railroad forfeiture bill, referring rights of
third parties TO the United States Courts for
adjudication, and finding the Senator'S had
not changed their views on this point, but
thought the amendment unnecessary in the
pending bill, he withdrew his objection to its
passage.

not likely to be popular in West Yirginis.

Virginia Lawlessness, was read here with
much interest. Your comments on certain
editorial paragraphs from the Pittsburs
Times, concerning the alleged arrest and
narrowing confession Of Mrs. Burke, Of

ment. You would have been better able TO
use up your Pitisburg cotemPorary tor
his very uncharitable remarks about the
Iawlessness OF Grafton if you had
with your usual enterprise, taken the pains
TO ascertain the facts in ihe case. As the
Burke story is being published throughout
The country, it would be q simple act oi
Justice for our daily papers to correct IT'S
n;srenresentations. The blood-curdling
storv of which Mrs Burke is the heroine IS
without a shadow of truth, so far as ! know.
No one has been arrested here, or anywhere
