The Proposed Ilcunion of the Presby
terian Church.
It will be remembered that the General Assem
blies of the two great branches of the Pres
byterian Church, known as tho Old School
and the New School, at their sessions in
May host appointed upeeial committees to con
fer together, and Bee whether they could not
agree upon some common and satisfactory
basis of union for the two bodies. Those
committees comprise the names of such
distinguished divines as the Rev. Drs.
Beatty, Backus, Gurley, Reid, and Montfort,
of the Old School Church, and Adams, Hat
field, Fowler, Nelson, Stearns, etc., of the
Kew School Church, besides several distin
guished laymen of both bodies. The late Rev.
Dr. Brainerd, of this city, was also one of the
Hew School Commissioners.
The committees are now in session in New
York. It is certainly to be hoped that they
may agree upon some basis of union for this
great and powerful denomination of Christians.
There is no good reason why they should not.
The form of Church government is identical in
both branches, and they have a common Con
fession of Faith. Although the quarrel w hich
thirty years igo divided the Church was a
very bitter one, yet the causes which pro
duced it, and tho parties to it, have now
mainly passed away. There has been a good
deal of toning down of tho theological ques
tions which in part produced the separation.
Indeed, doctrinal differences are no longer dis
tinctive of the two parties. The liberal and
rigid forms of Calvinism prevail more or less
in each. Moreover, the old relationship be
tween the New School churches and the Con
gregational body which, under the form of
'The Plan of Union," prevailed quite exten
sively in some parts of the country thirty
years ago, has been mainly broken up. The
Congregationalists have assumed a more dis
tinctive denominational aspect, and no longer
seek affiliation with the Presbyterians.
The slavery question, too, which really con
stituted one of the most radical points of dif
ference between the Old and New School
Churches, has, in the order of Providence,
ceased to be any longer a root of bitterness.
The secession of the Southern Churches has
also rendered a union between tho Northern
Churches more practicable as well as desirable.
There is, therefore, no good reason why the
Presbyterian Church should not be reunited.
The sentiment among tho masses of the laity
in favor of Union is practically unanimous.
The people desire it ardently. The power and
influence of the Church would be greatly aug
mented by it; the tendencies of the times favor
consolidation ecclesiastically as well as politi
cally; and the great interests of Christianity
itself protest against needless and unfounded
divisions.
Should an Officer be Paid for Doing His
Duty ?
The question whether a special reward should
be given to an officer of tho Government for
the performance of what is merely his duty,
lias been brought before us by seeing that the
Senate has passed a special appropriation of
$190,000 to Captain Winslow and his crow, of
the Kearsarge, for sinking the pirate Alabama.
The law on the subject of prizes takeii by our
men-of-war is a peculiar one, and is of a char
acter which seems to us neither warranted by
sound reason nor justice. One-third of the
value of a prize goes to tho Government, one
third to the commander of the squadron, and
the remaining third to the officers and crew of
the captor, to be divided pro rata according to
their salaries. As the Alabama waa ' not
captured, a npecial appropriation is needed,
to give their share under the existing law,
and $190,000 has been appropriated for
that purpose. We mean no reflection on the
commander of the Kearsarge or her crew, as,
.so long as the present custom is in vogue, they
are certainly entitled to ns much profit for
pinking the pirate as they could have been had
they captured the vessel. But we think that
the whole theory of such claims is based on an
assumed right, which will not lear investiga
tion. A naval officer is a paid servant of tho
Governmeut-i-ho is paid for performing a cer
tain work. That work is to cruise in pursuit
of enemies of the Government and seek to
overcome them. When, therefore, he cap
tures or sinks a Rebel gunboat or a foreign
foe, he is only doing that for which ho is paid.
He id educated by the Government, in order
that he may be able to do this very thing.
We do not think, therefore, that he deserves
any extra compensation. It may be years
Jjefore they can do the Government any of that
service for which they are paid, whether they
are successful or not. When, therefore, the
time arrives when they can bo useful, can
they, in justice, claim extra pay for doing
merely a duty? We think not. We cannot
Bee, therefore, what claim there is m equity
for any prize money.
Nor does analogy between the custom so far
as other officers of tho Government are con
emed, strengthen their claims. The pay of
the army officers and the navy officers is
nearly the same. Yet our army officers do not
receive a cent more for winning a battle than
they do for lying idle in camp. Gettysburg
brought no pecuniary reward to Meade ; Look
out Mountain no extra pay to Hooker j nor
the march through the South anything to
Sherman. Yet the services performed by
these Generals were as great as those per
formed by any naval oflhier. In fact, far
greater ; and they were ns brave, and Jrisked
as much ns any Commodore ; yet we see, in the
allotment of the prize money, Admirals Porter,
Dnlilgren, mid Dupont receive over a hun
dred thousand dollars each. Is this just to
our nrmy officers? Clearly not. The Govern
ment is exhausting its already depleted Trea
sury in paying extra moneys to servants for
doing only their duty. It is time that the cus
tom le amVnded, and this unnecessary expense
at once prevented. There is no reason in
crying that the war is past, and that no
new claims will be made. We do not know
what may come in the future, but even if
not a cent should Ik? paid, the principles of in
justice remain tho same, and demand correc
tion on our statute books.
A Protest Against Emigration to Hrnzil.
Thomas K. Bkrciikr sends a hearty remon
strance from Rio de Janeiro against any further
emigration of poor mechanics and laborers
from the United States to Brazil. He says
those that are already there are in a condition
of grent distress, as it is impossible for them
to compete with the slaves and cheaper work
ing men in doing tho ordinary labor of the
country. A well-managed colony, he thinks,
might succeed, but for solitary poor men it is
a poor place.
Why any American laborers should choose
to emigrate to such a country as Brazil, when
there are millions of acres of fertile lands in
our own country which may be occupied,
free of cost, under the Homestead act, we are
at a loss to imagine. I2vc the Rebels who
went to Brazil at the close of the war have,
for the most part, become disgusted and re
turned. There is no country oh earth where,
all things considered, the laboring man has so
good a chance and may enjoy so many of the
blessings of life as in the United States.
Kentucky's Opinion.
The Kentucky Assembly has very solemnly
resolved:
"That this Assembly nml the people of Ken
tucky are unalterably opposed to negrosulFrauo,
whether unlimited or wpecliil, Kcuernl or quail
fled, and they lo most earnestly protest aig-tinst
the ptiSKace of any law by Congress which has
lor its object the extension of bucU hullrugo lu
any State or Territory. "
We do not know of anything that would lie
less likely to have weight either with the Con
gress or with the loyal people of the United
States than a resolution of the State of Ken
tucky. If that half-hearted, "neutral," and
behind-the-age community condemns a public
measure, it is pretty good evidence that the
measure is right.
CoitroitEAL Pi'NisiiMKNT IX Schools. A Chi
cago police justice has decided that corporeal
punishment in schools, whether moderate or
excessive, is illegal, and constitutes an assault
and battery. The common sense of the West
ern people will hardly stand such nonsense as
this. A teacher must either be allowed to
enforce discipline by proper punishment or by
expulsion. Without discipline a school is
worse than useless ; and if discipline can only
be maintained by expulsion, the school will
soon be broken up. A judicious use of cor
poreal punishment is neither cruel nor un
necessary, whether administered by parents or
teachers.
Nebraska. General Thayer, Senator elect,
started from Omaha yesterday, with the offi
cial act of the Nebraska Legislature accepting
the conditions of admission proposed by the
recent act of Congress. Upon the reception of
official intelligence of the action of the Legisla
ture, President Johnson will issue his procla
mation announcing the admission of the State
Nebraska will be the first State that has en
tered the Union with a truly republican form
of government since the rise of the slave
power.
In a recent descent upon a gambling-house
in New York the police arrested the whole
party present, finding among them no less
than eleven clerks and book-keepers. If em
ployers would pay a little more attention to
the personal habits of their clerks, they would
not so often be astounded by defalcations,
embezzlements, and thefts. No clerk can be a
gambler without sooner or later robbing his
employer. The fact that any man visits such
place should cause his instant discharge from
any fiduciary capacity.
The steamship Great Eastern has hail her
bqttom examined, and was found to be sound
and tight. She is to ply between the United
States and Great Britain and Prance tho pre
sent season, leaving Liverpool on the 20th of
March. She is fitted with every convenience
for two thousand passengers. Wo believe this
great vessel has never yet lmen made to pay
expenses. Perhaps, with the great amount
of foreign travel from this country likely to
be caused by the French Exhibition, she may
do better.
Illinois is sending to the Paris Industrial
Exhibition a specimen of "The Western
Farmer's Home," a kind of ready-made house
which is manufactured in large quantities in
Chicago, and is in common use in the newer
prairie villages of tho West. A common
school-house, equipped with desks, apparatus,
etc., is to accompany the "Home." The pro
ducts of the State and of the Northwest are to
be exhibited in these structures.
The Workingmen's Convention of Connecti
cut have very sensibly concluded not to nomi
nate a State ticket. Great efforts were made
to seduce them into the support of the Demo
cracy outright, or to the running of a third
ticket in its interest. If the workingmon act
wisely, they will keep their movement for
reform aloof from party politics.
