A mem* Christmas and a Happy New Year. Gen. M'Honald, now in prison for having a hand in the western whiskey frauds, has made a confession, in which he lets out that much of the stolen rev - enue was used for radical campaign ex penses. Grant's chief clerk in the Treasury de partment, wraa found guilty a* a member of the thieving St. Louis whiskey ring. Gen. M'lVvnald another of Grant's pets also found guilty, and at Grant's own deak, his private secretary Babcock, lias been indicted by the V. S. Grwndjurv Who will now be Grant's whiskey Bab eoekolorum ? Conflicting rumors are afloat as to >0 will be chairman of the various commit tee* of the house. It is U-neved that Wood will head the ,OHn!, and Randall apprvpri*tiona. For bank* and currency. Hon. I- A. Mackey. of this district, is mainly urged by mem bers conversant with his ability and fit ness for the position. Versed in all the Intricate questions of tinance and cur rency; fbr tweuty years president of a bank, which hassmveassfully withstood all the financial shocks and panics of that period, his selection would be a credit to Pennsylvania and insure a steady and tried hand at the financial wheel. The first result ofMr. Henderson's dis missal is now seen in the postponement of the St. Louis whiskey trials until next month, owing to the press of the new appointee's private business and his lack of familiarity with the line of prose cution. Bishop Haven is catching it all arouud. Two or three of the Methodist organs take occasion this week, to warn hiin that he cannot speak for his denomina tion, and that if he is going to run the politics of the nation it will take rather more time than he can well s|re from his religious duties. The Democratic members of the House showed their good sense in vot ing down in caucus, by a large majority, a proposition for a committee to take charge of the business of the House. The country has had altogether too much of caucus rule, which has, in late years, aim oat wholly destroyed the independ ence of Congress, and has been respon sible for a terrible amount of mischie vous legislation. The Williamsport Gax. A Bulletin dont favor Grant's third-term propensi ties, and thinks also he made a mistake in removing Gen. Henderson. The Bulletin is a radical paper, but we must give it credit for taking the right view of things occasionally. The World prospectus will be found in another colamn. The World is one of the leading papers published. It is ac knowledged to have the ablest writers in America upon its staff, who discuss the topics ofthe times in a stateman-like manner. The World ia besides the lead ing democratic organ. Its news depart ment ia fall and complete. And the Bellefonte Republican, of last week, let's drop one honest suspicion. It doubts Grant's motives in having Henderson, the prosecutor of the St. Louis whiskey thieves, removed. Grant evidently feels that the "tracks are get ting to fiash." Congress, the President and his Cabi net, and representative* of the press, were at Philadelphia on Friday, guests of the city, to take a look at the centen nial grounds and buildings. The cen tennial board only ask for an appropria tion of 11 millions.

He was honest I believe, but he was poor, and he felt that his positiou depended upou his obeying the behest* of those who had uo right to interfere wish his duties." These were bold words and i ilensive, as one might well expect they would be to our ImperialXVsar. MORE DISCLOSURES. Govts silt NT Omens .vs l)ur is THE MIRE AS DISTILLERS. The ludiana Whiskey Cases. Its not all over yet with Grant's |>et friends. Lightning has struck in Indiana Wonder how it is in Pennsylvania, even at home here in Centre county, with Grant's gougers and storekeepers, lioj* they are all right. An Indianapolis dis patch of 13 says: The entire morning session of the court was occupied in hearing the evi dence of John W. Bingham, whose R|>* pearance on the wituess stand was the signal for so tee interesting revelstion* regarding persons and matters directly connected with an Indiana whisky ring, of which he was the leading spirit and prime mover. With reference to Mr. Hill, witness observed that he had known Hill as a revenue officer for two years, and had told Lewis and others of his employees not to fear the defendant in the capacity of a government official as he was "all right." Witness paid the defendant regularly 011 the first of every month for not peaching on him, and his average assessment for keeping the gov ernment officials "mum" was f'.\otX per week. These bribes were given to Hill at Bingham's office in Evansville. Mr. Bingham also relatad in detail the circumstance of his having given .Simon L. Powell, revenue supervisor, a gold watch and chain on the occasion of the latler's visiting Louisville. He said that when he presented the watch and chain he did it for a purpose, knowing the official character of Powell, and that such a*gift might benefit him some time. Bingham stated that he had received occasional letters with reference to whis ky irregularities but could not produce any of them. He also observed that about of the whisky lie manu factured waa crooked and even then he lost so heavily as to necessitate tin shutting down of the St. Louis distil fcrv. Hiram Brownlee was given SSOO by the witness on the occasion of his at tending the marriage of Henry Veatch at Evansville. With reference to Charles E. Marsh, railroad agent, debating a whole day as to whether he would accept the bribe for making false entries of whisky ship ped, the witness said Marsh did not hes itate thirty seconds. General Veatch was then recalled and examined at considerable length. Philip Givins testified to the shipment of a number of barrels of whiskey from Patoka without tramps, ami when the matter was reported. Hill said he could not make a case out of it. With the latter witnesses the evidence for the prosecution closed, and the evi dence for the defence commenced. Gen eral Veatch, James H. McNecly, former ly post-master at Evansville and several gentlemen from Evansville and Rock port were examined, and testified to the good character of the defendant before his indictment. GESF.RA L lIESDEIiSOXS HE FES.SE. St. Louis, December 10.—The follow ing is the full text of a telegram sent to the Attomey>General last night by Gen eral Henderson. It was in reply to one from the Attorney-General stating that if tlief nfortnation received in|\Vasbings ton relating to Henderson's speech was true, then his (Henderson's) services would be no longer required iu connec tion with the prosecution of the whis key cases here: ST. Lor IS, MO., December 9. Hon. Edward* /Vrrrporif, A Mornry-Gener al t I have seen your last despatch to Colonel Dyer. My speech in the Avery case was extemporaneous.

A dis(iatch dated Washington 13 indi cates more trouble for Grant's third term crooked whiskey pet*. The dispatch Ex-Congressman Farnsworth, of Illi noise, ha* been in this city for the last two or three days, and the object of his visit is said to be in relation to the Chi cago Whiskey King. It seems that he is in possession of a large amount of in formation on the subject, and thatjthe developments he .is prepared to make will inculpate a large number of Federal and State officials. The name of Sena tor l.ogan is meutioued in counectiou with the frauds in that State, also that of Mr. Campbell, the father-in-law of General Babcock. It is the general be lief here that the whole system in every section of the country is as rotten as it can be, aud one of the first acts of the House will undoubtedly Wan investiga tion into the workings of the ring. A large portion of the money thus stolen from the Treasury gone into the pockets of individuals, but hundreds of thousands of dollars obtained in this way have been used to carry elections, State and national. Says the World: The serene irrele vancy of President Grant's curious re commendation to Congress to amuse it self with considering the question of Church taxation over which it has no more power of action than the Sanhe drim of Jerusalem, is only equalled by its .beautiful impartiality. President Grant is understood to be a Methodist, and the impression gains color from the fact that a Methodist Bishop, Ilaven by name, has just induced two hundred Methodist ministers at Boston to join him in offering President Grant a re nomination for a third term. It would be very unjust, however, to infer from this that President Grant's desire to see all Church property taxed "except churches," is dictated by a desire to puuisli the Pope for being a Roman Catholic and the Roman Catholics for having a Po]>e. The truth is that the new burdens the President seeks to im pose on religious bodies in this country would fall with most force upon biaown friends, the Methodists having some $10,000,, held by the Roman Catholics and $-"3,2t}5,25t> held by the Presbyterians. It would be sad if the exhibition of these facts should induce Bishop Haven and his two buns dred followers to reconsider their renomi nation ; but at least they put the Presi dent's superiority to mere sectarian zeal in a pleasing light. THE GREAT COSSI'IRACY. BLOCKING TIIK W UEXLBOr JVSTICE. St. Louis, December 10.—Public inter est iu the great whisky conspiracy reach ed a climax to-day when the announce ment was made that at a Cabinet meet ing Attorney General Pierrepont had been instructed to have special counsel Henderson instantly dismissed. The whisky men are jubilant, as they have reason to he, since in the removal of Mr. Henderson, who lias been familiar witli the details ofthc ring for months, their chances of escape are greatly increased. No new man can take up the complicat ed threads of evidence so as to become so dangerous a prosecutor. Under the cir cumstances, it is not too much to sav that the removal is considered a high handed and arbitrary exercise of power, w hicli if not in the interest of the whis ky ring, amounts in its result to the same thing. Mr. Henderson was United States Senator at the time of the trial of An drew Johnson, and was one of the seven Republicans who voted for acquittal.

When the number of the elect shall have bren completed, the increase of Hit King-j dom will cease, but not the peace of it. As long as Christ is our Peace, we shall have; an abundanco of ptace, our peace shall flow as a river. 3. He shall order and soltle it with jus tice and judgment. Everything is aad : shall be well managed in tho Kingdom of Christ, and none ot His subjects shall havei cause to complain. Justice, tncrcy and! humility will universally prevail—peace; on earth and good will to men, will fill all lands. 4. Goi himself hath undertaken to bring all this to pass and his zeal shall do it. He is jealous of his own honor, the truth of bis promise and the good of his church, and will, therefore, extend the kingdom of his Son until the kingdom* of this world shall becomo the Kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. On this anniversary day let each one think of the grand and majestic char acter portrayed by the prophet Isaiah, and earnestly seek pardon through his blood. On this Centennial Christmas, think of Him who 1* our Light in darkness and our joy in tribulation. J. T., Aaionsburg. AN APPALLING DISASTER IN BELGIUM.

The choir and congregation, led by Mr Sankey, tang "llold lha Fort" with more enthusiasm and earnestness than it has yet been rendered in l'bilsdrlphia. There i* one little word in the chapter we just now read, said Mr. Moody, to which 1 want to draw your attention The word "agreed.'' Those men spoken of here evidently made a great nn-lake The geod roan of the vinevard found their •land in the market place early in the morning and offered them work, but tbey were not content to go. Until They Had Made a Bargain with him. not content to receive whatever might he right and just. Tbey agreed wilti him for a penny a day. Then the master ot the vineyard went again at diff erent hours and sent other men who were standing idle to workia his vineyard, say ing. "Whatever it right 1 will give you." It was not the first men that made thebar gain. When the time came to pay, the man who had only worked one hour go! a penny, and they look it of course with great joy, and to with all the re.t, no mal lar how long they had worked Presently came these men who had made the bar gain, and when they are offered the penny look at it and say: "There it something wrong about this. Hera these men have only worked one hour and we have borne the burden and heat ef the day ; just as a hackman when he isn't satisfied with his fare looks at the monay and then looks at you and thinks you're a pretty mean man because you don't give him what he wants. But the roaster of the vineyard replies:! "Didn't you agree with me for a penny;; didn't you rnako a bargain, and am 1 not giving you all 1 agreed to give? Iluveu't I a Right jto do what I will with mine own ? I will five unto these last even as unto thee." 'here are a good many people now who are iust like these men, all the limo mak ing bargain* with God. They will go and do certain things. If the Lord will do some thing ter them, and then if they don't get the reward down here, they get discour aged and leave off working. We mutt lake tho good man of the house at his] word, and when he looks for workers in his vineyard say, "Here am 1, Lor.), send me." We must be ready to become hew ers of wood and drawers of water : ready to do any kind of work for the Matter; not be nil the time trying to make bar gains. Hut that ii not so much what 1 want to talk about tins morning There are two words, "peculiar" and "ready," that 1 want we should look at One great rca*on why many people refute to work for C'hri*t is becau-e tliev are afraid of be ing called peculiar. They want just enough of Christ to enable them to get along, and o they shall not be throw n out; of the bosom of the church. They wantlo be able to take their place in society at) church members. JJut they don't want o much of the spirit of ChrLt as shall make them seem peculiar to the world. How often we hear it said, "Oh, ho is a very good man, but ho is very peculiar." Or of some woman, "Why, she never mingle* in the pleasures of tho world. She is al ways with some sick person in one of the dark alleys of the city, or in some hospit al, or trying to get bold of some rough man or sorno poor fallen woman. Of courso she is a very good women,—but So Very "Peculiar." The moment a man or woman gel* into th* service of God with all their heart, they are called "peculiar." 1 want to see the Church full of such "peculiar" peo ple. If i knew of such a church any where, 1 think, although 1 am a humble sailor, just a* soon a* 1 get on the water 1 w'oulij sail around the world to find it. Such a uhurch wuld move any city. Oh, fur a church tilled with peculiar people. Amen. Mr. Moody quoted a vemo from the sscend chapter of the Kpistle to Titus, and another from second Epistle to Timothy, second chapter and twenty-first verse, showing that this keparulioii from tho world and tingle-hearted service is what the Bible demands, and then referr ed to tha POWpr end influence exercised by Daniel, AbrabfM.

Plunge into the Water and save 'the man. Drag hint out. jFave Him First ami Talk After wards. When we were in Scotland a wealthy merchant asked uie to go to hi* town anil speak. After the service 1 noticed that i when the people were going into the in quiry room this man was not taking any active part I asked him to come in and help, when he replied. "Oh. no, 1 can't' do that, ' " Well," 1 aid, "you lose the best part of the blessing, for it is in this personal contact that most good is done nut still he said he could not do it, arid just as 1 was going from the church to 'the inquiry room, we met a young man who was animus I turned to the mer ichant and said. "Here's a men, Mr. Kay, who wants to become a Christian. Won t you talk with him?" Brought thus in persona! contact with an inquirer he could not longer refuse. After the meeting he came to me and said, "Mr. Moody, do you know that yiing msn you introduced , was one of my clerks T That man works f<>r me, and be said as we were talking. Oh, 1 am so glad you spoko to me. 1 have often wished you would speak to me about religion.' " There was No Trouble After That in getting that merchant to work. In the inquiry room he brought many to Christ. Then when we went to Ireland he ar ranged his business so that he could spend HUH# time in each of the groat cities with . us, and in Manchester, Birmingham and Liverpool this Scotchman with a Bible under ho arm would ci ins and say "Mr Moody, have you anything tor me to do here * ' Every where he led many souls to Cbri#L Ask that man whether the work in Europe was a failure. 1 tell you. my triends, it'* the people who aland coldly as lookers un watching the work from the outside who talk about failure. Let them come into the inquire rooms and be brought m contact with broken hearts, and they will soon leave ot! talking about no "gooil having been done. 1 have noticed that the people who only criticise and Lake no part in the work, get no blosing for their 'own family. May God help us lo gel ready to work. \V• have been on the de fensive long enough. It is time now that we should move on the enemy's work* We went more men and women who ere ready to join the Philip and Audrew so ciety , willing to put forth personal effort to bring your fuends lo Christ.

Af ter he at dead it was found he had kept a 1 * at Chicago through the part ing entreaty of their teacher who wa* leaving the city to go home and die. lie I felt he could not leave them unaaved, and although all hii prrviou* work had seernod fruit!*** and unavailing, hi* parting viit to each member of hi* eta** brought a very one to th* feet of the Saviour, and now they are among the useful woraara in the I church of which Mr. Moody i* a member There i* no reason, he continued, why . there (hould not ha 6.OUU toul* saved dur ing this week Upon which we have now entarud. if each one will bring one. How many are there of you that will promise here before God to bring one soul to ChrUt ; between now and neat Sunday. All that can make that promise ple*-e rise. Fully three-fourths of the congregation < responded, and there wa*a solemn alienee, btoken by the weeping of strong men, whoie heart* bad been touched and quick ened by the wonderful earntslnc** of the pewcher. Then I)r. Newton offered prayer, hi* voice nearly chocked with emotion, and ihu.e who had risen remained standing un til it* conclusion. With many it wa* a solemn prayer and vow of consecration. Mr. Moody followed with a brief peti tion. and Mr. San key also prayed that each person present might determine to speak with some one in the congregation j before leaving tha building this morning The service then concluded with the sing ing of hymn 1I& HAVE Y 01' A HOLLA R FOK ONE DOLLAR, We Will Send, Post paid, j The Weekly World one year. 1.
