STRONG TALK IN The PULPIT

last SUNDAY a clergyman of the city as
sailed n prominent public Official, the
head Of an important Commission. as the
biggest rascal on the Board" =" and as " fit
only for the penitentiary." This violent
language WAS used. not in a sudden
spasn Of morality, but was deliberately
prepared bv its utterer and gwen t. the
press for publication III advance of its
delivery.
If the official deserves what is said of
him by the minister he ought not to have
been houored by the many tiiccs lie has
held both by election aud appointment,
and ought not now to be in the public
service. If the clergyman assertions
are unwarranted by facts they are ma
hclousIy libellou3, aud the person against
whom they are directed has right to
seek Justification in tho courts.
The assailed Official has ii ed com
pnnt for criminal libel against the min
lister. and the latter has been held to an-
swer in 81 900 bail. For this the com
plainant is accused OF attempting to
"muzzle the clergy" an the prosecu-
ton has been brand d ns an - Indecency"
and au - unwarrautable invasion " of the

This is ridiculous. A clergyman has
no more right than luyman TO Sian

clergyman will have the privilege OF prov

cation to make in regard 10 the residen-

This report raised tho hopes of the
Blaine managers to the seventh heaven.
At the same time the Harrison contingent
looked upon it MS plain avowal that
Mr. BIAISE stands on his Clarkson letter
and is not candidate for the nomin-
alton.
The delight manifested by PLATT,
CLARKsoS and QUAY at Mr.. BLArNE's
alleged announcement Is significant.
1t proves Coucluslvely that their lubors
on Mr.. BLAINE for week III this city
did not succeed In winning from him II

Mr.. BLkINE would accept have evidently

his own construction on the situation.

The ladies properly exercise much in

with some show Of indignation that the

tons to the President, 1t VAS shrewdly
concluded that her best efforts would be
exerted TO induce her husband to run for

Hence no great surprise was manifested
at Chicago yesterday when II was alleged
that EMMoNs BLAINE had received n

ing the words: " Pa will accept"
