US. SENATE CHAMBER,


Washington, July 8, 1870.
| PRESIDENT GRANT


Dear Sir: After much reflection have
decided that duty demands that l should
write to my views touching the proposed
removal of Mr.. Motley fear you will
make a sad mistake you remove him,
and l beg of you to consider the case
carefully before acting, His removal is
believed to be aimed at Mr. Sumner.
Right or wrong, this will be the construc.
ton put upon it. Can you, tny dear sir,
afford to have such an imputation rest
upon your administration Mr.. Motley
is one of the best known and most re-
nowned of our countrymen In letters
he is recognized as one Of the foremost
living authors of our country or of the
world. Office can add little to his rcpu.
tation. Removal from office, while il will
wound his feelings, will not affect his
standing among the most cultivated of
the age, | assure you, my dear sir, that
the men Of Massachusetts, who gave you
more than $4,000 majority, are proud to
number Mr.. Motley among their most
loved and honored sons. They remem-
Der that during the war his pen, voice,
and social influence and position were on
the side Of his struggling country. They
were grateful to you for his appointment
as minister to England. need not say
that they are surprised at the rumor that
he is to be removed. They are panied to
have it said that his removal is on account
of Mr.. Summers opposition to the st.
Domingo treaty. His removal will be re-
garded by the republicans Of Massachu-
sets as a blow not only at him but to
Mr. Sumner. There has been much feel
ing about the treaty. Imprudent words
have been uttered, as they always are
when mems feelings are excited. Per
haps MIR. Sumner may have said things
that may have been distasteful TO you,
but the people of Massachusetts, are with
him as ten to one. Holding on general
principles, that the prominent interests
of the country would be advanced by a
fcothold in the Gulf, and wishing to sns
tain your administration whenever could
do so, voted for the treaty, though |
knew that nine tenths Of the people Of
my State were against it, had nothing
to gain and something to lose by such a
vote. am ready to take the conse
quences Of that vote, but | am not in
sensible to the fact that the dismissal Of
Mr.. Motley, under present circumstances,
will not only be loss to your admins
tration, but blow to me. Personally !
ask nothing, but | do entreat you, before
acting, to look well to the matter. Your
administration is menaced by great oppo-
sition, and it needs peace and unity
among the people, and in Congress. The
head Of great party, the President of
the United States, has much to forget and
forgive, but he can afford to be magnani-
nous and forgivng l want to see the
President and Congress in harmony, and
the republican party united and victori
Gus To accomplish this we must all be
just, charitable and forgiving.


Very truly, HENRY WILSON.

A WILD MAN.-Tne White Pine News
says that the people Of the northwestern
part of Nevada are in a state of excitement
over the supposed discovery Of wild white
man in the densely wooded mountain near
fhe Utah line A search was made, and
ct moonlight a man, about forty years of
age, was seen nearly covered with white
hair. He carried in one hand club, and
in the other rabbit He instantly caught
sight oil the party, and. with a tremendous
roar, he attacked their horses with his
club. The dogs of the party, although
we'll trained, could not follow him.
Throughout the night the party was aruus-
ed by his terrible cries. He so injured
one of the horses that he had to be killed.
The party followed on his track till they
came tu cave. where they found set OF
soldiers buttons and dime dated 1871,
from which they came to the conclusion
that he was the man lost irum Fremont s

There are but few Inventions or discoveries

that the dirtiest garment uld he washed clean,

sanity But it has hem demon strated beyond ary
doubt that This process only cleans the clothes
but that garments hus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such surposirion has no
foundation in fact. and is contradicted by the ex
perienee of every lady who has adopted This mode
of washing.


Everyb ly who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations. 1t must be seen to be fully appre-
ciated, as its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in ordinary 'vertisement

apparatus for the last six months. and Innre than

In 1861, when that college building
known as the AthenRum was in
course of erection, some daredevil stu
dent stole the chapel Bible, and skill
fully inserted it within the half-built
walls. The next morning the masOns
went on with their work, and the
book was apparently entOmbed fOrev-
er. An entry in President Stiles
diary informs US of the loss of the
Bible, aud a few years later is followed
by another, cOmmemOratipg the fact
that the thievish student, smitten by
remOrse, had sent word where he had
concealed it. It was of course too late
to recover it, and nothing was said or
done until the AthenRum was remOd-
eled during the last vacation. The
book had been built i'm Just between
the two central windows of the north
wall, and when the floors and beams
had been taken down, one or two Of
the faculty, mindful Of this legend of
the past, ordered the masOns to take
away the bricks anr disiuter the long
buried treasure. It was then almost
evening, and after half an hours in

intention of proceeding in the morn

Let us be fair. We frankly admit


that the pulpit of the day does some


times administer the semblance of a


rebuke. Not to do so much, would


be too palpable an abdication Of the
authority of its office. The expecta-
tiOns of the audience, and the unsat-


isfied prOprieties of the place and of
the pastoral relation, demand it. But
it is unusually painful to a degree TO
assist as auditor at the ceremony.
The manful starts to charge and


the craven recOils, the missiles fairly


aimed aud faint heartedly hurled
short of their mark, the round rebuff


that the neXt-dOOr neighbOr of the
actual sin receives, the apprehension


not well uttered till it is qualified or
withdrawn, the thousand feints to
strike and the continued suspense Of
the blow, and the lOng-drawn breath
at last of mutual relief between
preacher and hearer, when all is over
and nobody is hurt-whO does not
recognize in this description the style
of rebuke most common from the
average pulpit Of the time? Oeca-
sionally, indeed, the matter is man
aged differently. There will be a
kind of implicit understanding be-
tween the pastor and his flock, that
the pastor shall enjoy the privilege OF
clearing his skirts once in a while by
what both parties pleasantly agree
to call a scOldiug" sermon. The
pastor then uses great plainness pl
speech. If you are stranger, you
are amazed at the equanimity of the
audience under such singing re-
proofs. Nobody vines, but a merry
wink belize Of mutual intelligence Is
tipped across from deacon 20 deacon
and from brother to brother At the
close of the sermon the pastor beams
his sunniest on his brethren at the
Misunderstanding, and very likely a little
brisk raileTy is exchanged between
pastor and people about the sermon.
The congregation go home talking
with somewhat unusual animation.
" Did you feel hit to-day >" asks one.
" Not j, - is the answer. Il heard
for Bro. Jones'" The pastor will
feel better now for a while" saws
another" "Oh, yes, it does him
good to free his mind'n And sure
enough, the following Sunday the
pulpit weather is all bland May. The
pastor is not going to be a One-idea
preacher. He has presented that side
of the subject, and now he will pro-
ceed to present the other. Accord
ingly his next sermon will with great
precision neutraliZe the sermon Just
preached. There is no fighting il out
on one line-and the rebuke is rightly
taken by those whom it concerns, il
there are any such, in the Pickwickian
instead of the apostolic sense. We
repeat it with emphasis, that when
sin is once suugly entrenehed in the
practice Of a majority, or even of
a decent minority, Of a respectable
Christian Congregation, it is thence
forth in general safe from pulpit re-
buke. The pulpit is dumb in the face
of it; or the pulpit, if not dumb,
ehokes and mumbles its speech.
