Not for many years has any event in
the struggles of parties created so pio
found-aseusaliou as the d.'gradation of
Charles Sumner from the Chairmanship
of the Committee on Foreign notations.
The feelin'' of indignation at ids remo
val is. only inlensilled by Hid appoint
ment of Senator Cameron in Ids place.
Tldsoulra ,r e wasemisummalcd in open
giujatc on- Friday .last, by a yotoof eas
!!:! "nays 0. Previous to the vole being
taken, lho Republican Senators f.fvor
ajilc to Sumner, quietly slipped out o!
the KenaJlo and refused to. vote. Messrs.
Wilson, Syhurz, Logan, and several
“oliier lead
pealed to their party colleagues not to
attempt to degrade the Massachusetts
veteran, hut their words of warning fell
upon deaf ears, and' the learned and
eloquent Sumner was compelled toyield
his place to the -incompetent, trickster
and money-making Million Cameron!
This was adding-insult to injury, for it
is notorious that Cameron, has uo-qnall
lieations for the position, cxeepttli.it hi
will s'nit Grant and do ids bidding
provided always, lie is first convinced
(hat he can make money by doing so. i
Sumner, fanatic as lie is, is believed
to be honest; and of course is opposed U
the. little arrangement pew going m.
between Grant aud “ President-Baez’
for the purchase of tlie mud-hole, Mm
Domingo. Sumner knows,, ns every
other intelligent limn knows, Hint this
Sen Domingo job is nothing but n cor
rupt speculation—n trick by ' which
Grant, Baez, (heir aiders and abettors,
are to make several millions of dollars,
it is n swindle, a piece of villainy, that
Sumner could net and would not sanc-
tion.
Another tiling Sumner would not re
cognize, and this, added to ids hostility
to San Domingo, settled ids Cate. In
February President Grant nominn
ted to (ho Semite a poor, miserable, hro
ken-down .Methodist preacher named
Cramer, as Minister to.Denmark,nt a
salary of 57,«00 a year, in gold 1 Cramer,
who was then preaching to a small con
gngation in a village out West, at a
yearly salary of $lOO, was known to a
number of Senators, and of course they
opened tbeir eyes when ids nomination
for the high position of minister to Den
mark was road. Runnier fell indignant;
* lie know Cramer to he an ass, and no
more fit for the position' for which lie
had been named than an ass. Ho made
no speech against Cramer, however, blit
when the nomination was up for con
firmation, a Senator asked the question
who is lids Cramer?” Sumner re
sponded liom Ids scat— "he /.vg/iV right;
his trite is Mrs. flrani’s sister; hr. is
another brother-in hue." Cramer was
confirmed. Had he not been "another
brother-in-law,” lie would not have re
ceived a vote in the Senate.-

Since the - inauguration of I’resident
rant,, strange 'developments come up
am time to time concerning the rather
dubious ijets of first one and then an
other member of ids family, all of* whom
have boor, duly provided with olllee,
and put on the high road to fortune.
Tlie latest comes to light through the
Cincinnati press, iu which the father of
the President appears iu the rn/e of an
ollieo broker. The following letter from
Captain 11. O. Stoms, late in the Inter-
nal Revenue Department, fully demon
strates that the venerable Jesse has,an
eye to business:
■ Cincinnati, 0., January 10, IS7I.

But this letter from Capl. Stums to
the President of the United States is by
lav toq serious a.matter to lie made light
of. It demonstrates Hint there is some
thing radically wrong in the manage
ment of affairs of government, since so
prominent a member of the President’s
household, and one holding an impor
taut office, is so ready to barter pnhlje
offices, that lie would sell Ilium for live
hundred dollars each and divide -the
money. It is a fact well known in
those localities that in Ronthern Ohio
and Northern Kentucky, Jesse R.
.Gram influences almost entirely all ap
pointments to office. If lie was thus
ready to sell offices in one instance, it
is not the least bit improbable that lie
has done the act in oilier instances.
Captain S.toms makes the direct charge
and offers proof to sustain it. Now can
President Grant afford to let the matter
pass by? If he does he will only con
firm public opinion in the belief that
the charge is true, as' well as create a
well-founded suspicion as to the honesty
of Ids own administration in its most
ordinaly details.
From (he beginning it has,been ap
parent to ail who looked at the matter
properly, that (ho President was anx
ious to enrich ids family by his official
position. Unseemly developments of
this character have arisen on several oc
casions. The public mind has never
yet been satisfied .that lie was not con
nected with the Corbin gold speculation.
This new development rotative to (ho
older Grant will not have a tendency to
blot out.suspicion.

TJS I'. SAJJ AN A HAY JIKI.
la December, lS(i!),a treaty was made
with Baez for tlie lease ofSamaiia Bay
during filly years, at slso,oooRier an
num. Tlie Bay aud all the lamh-ahout
it coil'd have been bought outright for
less titan a-third of the money, if it had
mil iy of if
had been manifested to protect the pub
lic interests. Bat, ia plain truth, it was
a job, like everything else connected'
with tliis disgraceful San Domingo busi
ness. The parlies interested in tlie tine
gcheme shared in this rent; and wo are
inclined to believe that a very small
pint of it was over really pai(l to Baez.
Hut this Bay has been in our posses
sion since December, ISOO. Tlea-o is a
coaling agent there, draxing large pay
from the Navy Department—tlie first
of a horde of idle leeches that these
schemers design to fasten on the Trea
sury. Let: us see what wo have got for
our money. In the tirst place, tiie whole
'5150,000 might as-well have been.thrown
into tlie Bay,so far as the United States
have derived, or ever will derive, any
heuelit from tlie lease. That w’as.well
known to- the speculators who contrived
it and filled their pockets at the public
expense.
When the Teiim sseu arrived nt Sam
ana, there was no means of coaling,
although a whole year had elapsed to
make the preparation. The correspon
dent of the New York World says:
Aficr a week iu Snmatut, mil" stay at
which place was nm-t mine cssnnly pro
loiigP'l by the inei inpi‘iem-y and careless
ness of the Uniiml- Suites coaling agent,
nl Ramana Uiy, thu.Cmiiiiiisslon reached
the city of Ralito Dmiihivn mi Tuesday,
January ill.
This is the way business is done hero.
A hay is leased, under the lalse pretence
of a necessity for a coaling station in the
West indies, and after over a year of
possession, .when a vessel of war goes
there to coal, she is detained six days
because there are no coals in the so
called coaling station. But the people’s
money lias been divided among tiiejoh
hers, and now a'wail comes up from
the Commission, that more hundreds of
th.misands are needed to keep up Baez,
and, of course, to gorge ids greedy con
federates.

After explaining and .amplifying the

'lhc. spirit also impresses the Church’—
f it is a Spiritual Church. When a

power, there is a convict! n produced in
lite Church which linds an expression In
such words an these: *1 ihl.nk God has
a work for that man ; I believe he is

before the class and Quarterly Conference,

and fruits’* to make him a successful
minister of the Lord Jesus. We do not
believe Goa culls men Who have not these
qiiu'itications. He selects those who arc

as an endowment, for the minister. The
wicked cannot preach. It Is profane for
them to speak from the pulpit or admin

their touts. They must also hoar fruit.
God calls no man to preach whodocs not

—JXJs.the duty of I he Chin ch to jjravt' ha
lessour hahu’, formerly
to .otfer this petition. How often have
wo. during (ho,vent, sent it up-from our
heart's. Our colleges ami seminaries can
not supply asulUcicnt number of preach
ers to (111 the,demand. We hall educated
young men who graduate uL our.schools
gratefully and gladly as fellow laborers,
yet the hurden of our souls must he
‘ Lord rend rorlli laborers into Uie bar

pray. Many arc called to preach, lint are
not encouraged and helped by pastor or
people. Young men glow up and settle
In business, and are not spoken, to, in
structed and prayed for in this regard. •
Nowhere can the doctrine be stated with
such force ami success us in the Sunday
school. Oh, tell the buys the beauty and
beatitude of this Work; instruct the
youth In the .labor of saving souls. I
doubt whether there is ever a great revi
val in which there may not he, found
some among the converts who are called
to preach, Pastors, seek them out. Look
over your congregations and among your
young men for them as the miser looks
over his jewels and gold. When you lin'd
young man of unction and zeal, consult
with him, pray for ami with him. It is
(he highest function of the church and
ministry to hring'ihen into (his work. If
is a li/V--work arid needs the vivacity and
ela-dlcily of y -nth in order fully to lit
nen for it. Pray in yoi?r families, where
hero are lans, in the Sabbath Schools,
iud in ilie pulpit that laborers may be

If you are rejected here, let (here be no

f admitted you have not yet acquired
>r reeel vet! till the endowments and qua!-
llcatjons necessary to ma’:e you success
ut in your work. You are to spend your
ime in reading,, meditation, pm.\ er,*and
aisloral duties. 1 hope you have all had
a classical education,-but whether you
come 'from the college or the common
school, remember -you cannot, he true
imuslers-miless you are students as long
as you preach. If yon have finished
your education, you have also finished
your ministry. Hewi.o stops study, stops
growth, and begins to decay, By study
I do not mean reading newspapers and
periodicals, hut rather the examination
of great questions, the highest doctrines
’of theology and philosophy. Mental
struggle and activity a’one can give yon
menial power. Why arc 0 aged lawyer*
nd counsellors always sought after by
the public, while,the churches uli want
young ministers? First, the lawyer al
ways has a new speech, and many preach
ers preach (heir old ones over and over,
until they are dried up. If wo have a
new sermon every time we come before
our <‘oiigregaiiou*s, the discourses we de
liver with whitened hair will boas fit-ah
nd vigorous as those of our youth.
Preaching old sormona is no mental ex
ercise. Tin* elaboration and application
of your sermons should he adapted to the
varied circumstancea and sympathies of
your dldoient congregations. But, again,
the lawyer, every lime he pleads, feels,
“1 have but this one chance; I must
succeed nota, or forever fail.’’ Wo'ought
to Icel thus before our congregations.—
With an aimless, indirect purpose iiooiig
can succeed, Home heloro me have
preached longer than i, and they are
even more acceptable than in their.voutii.
Why? Their hcarls are with the children,
and the children love them. The little
(tnes Jove leather Gere more to-day than
ever, because he loves them—and us lo.ng
as he grows in grace he will love them
more. At no time can we dispense with
close, earnest study and application. I
d-.nbi jf a preacher can even retain his
.mental vigor who docs not elaborate
thoroughly at least one discourse every
wee’w 11 yon Intend to be lazy, or take

ministry is the hardest, as well as the

Boon, rather than be lazy. This taking
care of yourselves, and neglecting your
work is ruinous.
CuHivale your manner and spirits Xn
your duties, and in administering disci

(In to those who need you, who need yon
most. That poor dinnkuid, nearing hell
