A special Washington dispatch to tlio
N. Y. Evening Post, dated Juno Oth.
says: It Is understood that there Is to
bo a thorough overhauling of all the
papers In tho Treasury Department, ref
lating to the Syndlcato business, with, p.
view to ascertaining the truth of sono
serious charges which have been made.
It Is also undei stood that asulthasbeon
begun by the fcllent partners ot Ilenry
Clews &' Co. In the Syndicate and for
sign fiscal agency business, to compel
them to 'account for tho profits of the
Mime; aud persons who claim to bo la
miliar with the history of the matter
nay that there will be disclosures of :
startling character as to tho means era
ployed to effect tho removal ot Baring
J7rQS.,and tho appointment of Jay Oooko
& Co. and Ilenry Clews C Co. as the
United States fiscal agents abroad
Some very high officers are said to be
implicated, and' if the exposure ts mado

Woman Jn ttio l'ulpli.
Tho subject of woman In the pulpit
which came up before the Qoneral As.
hembly of the Presbytetinn Church at
St. Louis, last week, was finally dlspns
ed of in tho adoptlou, by a voto ot 211
to 84, of a resolution declaring that
"the Assembly expresses no opinion as
to the Scriptural view of woman's right
to speak or pray In tho social prayer,
meetings, and commits the whole sub
ject to the discretion of the pastors and
elders of tho churches." Tho only
doubt involved In this is as to whether
woman's preaching In the pulpit on
Sunday Is embraced in this resolution.
In any event, we think In committing
the subject to the discretion of tho res
pective churches interested; giving each
church perfect liberty to follow Us own
inclination, the Assembly lias acted
wisely. This U a great step forward.
Now, where a stupid minister Is settled
o or a congregation, wo suggest tlint a
lively ciiteitaining1 woman preacher be
called as associate. Theeffect,we doubt
not, would be magical upon tho congre
gation and beneticlal upon the Rev. Dr.
Bull. .dny way we rejoice to know that
every facility Is to be afforded for the
salvation ot sinners, even through the
foolishness of woman's preaching.

TIIE CENTENNIAL
It Is now finally settled that Congress
will not appropriate a dollar to this ob
ject, and tho people of Pennsylvania
lnve thereforedetermined of themselves
to make tho Centennial a success. The
National Cotumisslou is to be continu
ed, and the money contributed by our
people Is to bo spent In pa j Ing tho mlle

have the principal and most Important
offices, and theso Commissioners have,
the asurance to Inform and instruct us
how tho money of Pennsylvania shall
be spent. Connecticut voted against us.
and while she has subscribed for six
shares, making the grand amount of
460, she sent two Commissioners, and
Idaho, after having subscribed for ouo

her Commissioner. The mileage of
these gentlemen, not to mention their
expenses in this city, must be paid from
tim centennial tuna.
Is It surprising that our people will
not take any more of tho stock, and will
not contribute money to the cause?
They nre opposed to strangers nnd even
enemies to their interests, holding tho
Important positlpns, directing all tho
workings of the Centennial, and being
paid from the funds furnished by Phila
delphia, We should Insist upon these

friends ought to. mnnago the affairs,

IDS SALVAGE SUIT.
Captain Urady, after having assumed
coinmnud or the steamship Fenuylva.
nia, when she had been disabled In a
terrible storm on her leturn trip from
IJverpool, has seen nroner to decline the,
gift of the company for his valuable
services on tint occasion, and he brought
an action of ralvauo for damages. If
this suit is decided In his favor, bo will
make a handsome fortune out of the
(peculation.
Tbu case has been fevers! weeks be
fore the United States Commissioner,
mid thy testimony of the third officer.
Mr. lllvrrs, is very damaging, If not fa
tal to Brady's claim. Mr. Rivers was
the only jeif-on who had the right to
roue urn command, una lie was entirely
competent for tho occn&loii. The crew
had chosen Brudy an their commander.
aud Mr. It I vers wisely refrained from
coming in collision with hlin, because
ne iraru mat n mutiny would result
nod this would have been tho total
wrecking of the vessel.
If Captain" llraily obtains salvace. tin
largo amount tu ba paid will probably
destroy the company, and American
steamships will ue once mnro driven
from the ocean. His currently repqrt
ed that New York Is backing Brady In
thU Hilt, as they nre jealous of Philadelphia,-
and they wish to ruin her ship-

The directors of this company have
tmnlmnmly elected Ool. or, .ns he Is
commonly called, Tom Scott to the
presidency, in place or the. into J. Ecljmr
Thomson. Tins is a wise selection, ani
one must Increase tho confidence of nil
persons In stability of the company.

MAIUUAOE Of COUSINS.
There should be a law against theso
marriages, in JSntianu a widower may
not marry his deceased wlfo'ssistcr, nnd
yet cous'ns ure permitted to inter-mar
ry ab libitum. Victoria was married to
her first cousin, and among the nobility
sucu alliances are very common.
We cannot understand why tho mar
rlage of a man with his deceased wife's
sister is worso than tho marrlngo of
blood cousins. First cousins children
of sisters or brothers, or of brother nnd
sister are as nearly related as the chit
dren ot the second generation can he.
Accoidlng to the statistics In fils
couutry, a largo proportion of the deaf
ami dumb, the blind, tho idiotic, nre the
ouspring or married cousins, burcly,
me worm is large enough to make
selection of a partner for lite, without
Doing oullged to contino ourselves to
suit a narrow circle as that of our own
blood relation. It would bo far better
for humanity, if tho marriage of cousins
were prohiulted by law, nud so inuoh
misery would not thou be entailed upon
our race.
DEATH FROM EATING HAM.
A person recently died in this city
ironi eating uncooked ham. ills soil-
ctlngs were of the most excruciating
kind, and ho was literally devoured by
worms. Apouertui microscope revealed,
ul the ham hundreds of trichliie that
were sporting around llko Immense boa
coustilctors. We advise all persons nut
to eat meat of any kind unless it has
been previously cooked, as there Is al
ways more or lejs danger from tho pre
sence ot these nauseous vermin.
DEATU 01! rilOMINENT MEN.
This week two centletnan died, who
were engaged In almost identical per-
sults. Richard Norriswas tho celebrat
ed builder of locomotive, and A. Whit
ney owned nn extensive, establishment
of car wheels. Theso two men died
within twenty-four hours ot each others,
and their places of business had been
for many jear s aimo-a 111 mo same
neighboihcol. It Is seldom that such n
singular coincident occurs. N orris

Tho financial question assumes a
varying phase with each fucceedlna
dty. Yesterday tho Inflationists seem
ed to be buoyant over the fact that a
satisfactory compromlso was to be ef
fected- tiy the conference committee
while advices from Washington to-dav
show that such a compromise is hope-
ess, and a feeliua of depression exists
In consequenco The President U re
ported to be extremely reticent on the
subject, and It appears he Is determined
to stand on his lato veto message, aud
anything opposed to tho spirit of that
act will meet Ills positive disapproval.
So everything Is at sea ngaln, nnd day
light Is not yet breaking in on tho vexa

business of tho country Is adapting It
self to the likelihood of n do nothing
