THE church trial of Dr Talmage,
of Brooklyn, still continues with uu
abated interest, if we may judge from
the very large number of persons re
ported to he in daily attendance.
They have progressed far enough t<>
raise question* of veracity Iwtweeu
themselves.
Only six hundred men were arrested
ain I. imprisoned on false charge.* by
Davenjwrt in New York last fall, to
prevent them voting the Democratic
ticket. This, say the Republicans,
was a mere trifle. Perhaps it was, but
it was a trifle of 6(H) too much to per
mit the dirty tyrant to repeat it next
fall. Congress proposes to retire him
from further service of the kind.
THE New York .S'un, choosing be
tween Grant and Sherman as the
Presidential candidate of the Repub
lican party, prefers Sherman. The
choice of either we should think a
difficult conundrum to any one who
possesses a proper degree of interest
in the success ami stability of Repub
lican government. One is simply a
military tyrant of ordinary caliber
and low instincts—the other an adroit
speculating politician of fair ability
and unscrupulous in means and action.
The Sun's choice, however, is the most
creditable of the two, hut we trust
Providence has nlready sufficiently
scourged the American people, and
will avert the calamity which the
choice of either of these men as Presi
dent would inflict u(K>n the country.
THE Legislature of Ohio have pass
ed a law authorizing the appointment
of ladies as Notaries Public. Well,
why should they be debarred from dis
charging the duties of these offices.
In many places they are admitted to
the bar as lawyers and become advo
cates in our courts ; they graduate in
our colleges and become practicing
physicians ; they are appointed to offi
ces in all departments of our govern
ment, and arc experts in conduct of
the public business; they are elected to
offices and become directors and suj>er
intendents of public schools, and there
is no reason why they should not he
Notaries Public, Justices of the Peace,
Constables and Judges. But please
continue to allow them to wear long
dresses. They are very pretty, thus
attired, and a change is not desirable.
THE next great divorce case to be
decided is one in which the younger
Cameron presides a* one of the judges.
It is now under trial and being ably
argued by the ablest lawyers and
statesmen of the country —Wallace,
Thurman, Blackburn aud other dis
tinguished men one side, and Blaine,
Conkling, Ixgan aud many other fifth
rate statesmen on the other side. It
is the divorce of the BAYONET AND
THE BA u/JT, an unuatural am! de
grading alliance consummated in wick
edness and debauchery, under the pat
ronage of the once great Republican
party. The univcr&l sentiment ol
the country is that the divorce of right
ought to be decreed, aud the majority
of the court to which the case is now
submitted for adjudication will not
shrink from the duty of the hour, hut
promptly declare the unholy union
—this great blot upon Republican
government, should no longer exist.

From to tlio Tlin". %
W AVIIIKUTON, April IS.— lho debate
in tho .Senate on the army l>ill wan
briefer than uutl, n* nobody seemed U)
be ready to apeak. There wan a abort
debute on the Senate officers, in winch
the Republican* charge that the Demo
cratic caucus now controlled the action
of the Senate. Senator Randolph
made a speech on tho presence of toops
ut the polls, and, an usual, when he
Npcuka he had something to say worth
listening to. The closing portion of his
remarks ought to receive the attention
of the friend* of (ieii. (iraiit. Accord
ing to Randolph's stbtemeot tlrantoon
fesaed a few years ago to having practi
cally no respect lor the Constitution or
the Supreme Court, and that his ideas
were that the army should rule the
country. Next week it is expected that
there will be some heavy speeches, i
Conkling, Chandler, Allison and other
Republicans will speak, and Thurmau is
also preparing an argument.
The sentiment ascribed to Grant by
Senator Kniulolpli i* so characteristic
ol' hie acta as President, that no one
can fail to recognize the truthfulness
of this statement, even if it had a less
distinguished endorser. As President,
Grant showed very little if any re
respect for the Constitution, and cer
tainly the army was supreme as far as
the President was capable of making
it so.
Is the selection of the committees
of the House Mr. Speaker Randall,
snvs the I Carrisburg J'utriot, has not
overlooked the claims of Pennsylva
nia on his consideration. .Mr. Cofl
roth is chairman of the committee on
invalid pensions, Mr. Wright, of the
committee on the causes of the de
pression of labor, and Mr. Wise, of
the committee on manufactures. The
committee on invalid pensions is one
of the most laborious in the House, a*
thousands of claims arc brought be
fore this committee that arc barred by
existing pension laws. Mr. Clymer
remains in his old position as member
of the committee on appropriations
which is now the most important ot
the committees of the House. He is
chairman of the committee on cxpen
ditures in the State department. Mr.
John Ryon's abilities a* a lawyer are
recognized with a place on the judici
ary committee. Mr. Ilarmer i a
member of the important committees
on naval affairs and the Pacific rail
roads, |K>sitions which are altogether
out of proportion with his small de
serts. Mr. O'Ncil i* on the committee '
on commerce which feus charge of the j
river and hnrbur bills, Mr. Kbits is on 1
the committee on the District of Col
umbia, Mr. Krrett is on Indian atliiirs, 1
Mr. Bingham, on post offices and |*>t
roads and expenditures of the Post
office department, Mr. Kiliinger, on
foreign affairs, Mr. Ikdtzhoovcr, on 1
election* and on public expenditures,
Mr. Smith, on invalid pensions, Mr. |
Bayne, on the levees of tho Mississip
pi, Mr. Fisher, on coinage, weights ,
and measures, Mr. Overton, on clec- >
tion, Mr. Mitchell, on private land
claims and mines and mining, Mr.
While, on military affair*, Mr. o*mer,
on educatiou and lalior, Mr. Ward,
on patents, Mr. Smith, on invalid j*<n
sion- and accounts, Mr. Shallenbergor, !
on public building* and grounds,
Mr. Bayne, on the levees of the Mis
sissippi and war claims. Mr. God
schalk on agriculture, Mr. Dick, on
territories, and Mr. Yoctitn on expen
diture* of public buildings.
THE question of Southern claims
was again up in the Hou*e last week,
hut excited little attention, nud was
dismissed without any howl from the
stalwarts. The calm and dignified
discussion of the subject iti opposition
to these claim* by tho " Ucliel Briga
diers," has so exposed the alsmrdity of
tho Republican cry of " Rebel claims,"
that the subject seems to lie dropped
and discarded a* not an available ad- ;
jnct U> the "bloody shirt" programme.
We din 11 probably hear no more of
the intention of the Democratic Con
gress assuming the "Rcliel war claims"
so fiercely promised in the Republican
newspapers.

MB. PIMJUIURY, tho sujieriutend
ent of the New York Stale prison,
having summed tip bis accouuts, shows
as the result of good management a
decrease in tho expenses for the last
two years of s<l'2ft,s.W, and an in
crease in the earnings of 1137,802.
This is certainly a creditable exhibit,
and the treasury of New York 1764,-

officer. How would the expenses and
earnings of tho Pennsylvania prison
management compare ?

The committee corresponded with the

The question of a "purely free library "

Managers met and organized February
8, 1876. A beautifully furnished suit of
rooms in Hurnea' New Block, secon t floor,
were thrown open. IJailies, weeklies snd
monthlies of all shades of opinion from
all parts of the U. 8., found their place
upon the tables, a fine library of choice
literature in its place, the walls adorned :
with very fine views taken from battle
field# and from the scenery of our own and
other clime*
Liberal provision* have been made to
induce all to join us, o liberal a* to be al
most free, yet so much * to impress the fact
noon them, that they pay for the finding
of the room and will strive to enjoy them.
$2.00 paid to the Neeretary will entitle the
person to full privilege* of the room.
Members have the right to Invito their
friends to the rooms, Stranger* sojourning
with its can enjoy air rooms for thirty

Tho children of member* have always
been welcome—their wives are 'alternate*.'

Speech of Senator Wallace.
1 WwW|lis r.jrr*afik<!<<s l'l.iUt.l)4iis lU</ rJ
The speech of the afternoon in the
senato and, indeed the *|ech of
all the sjieeches which have yet bacn
! made on the subject of the bayonet at
the |>olls —was made by Wallace, of
Pennsylvania. It was a great *jeoh,
J nratorically considered, and * grand
masterpiece of logic. The two speeches
' were a* different as the two men.
Rlaine's wa# a bunch of rhetorical ky-
J rocket*- - Wallace a resistless torrent of
logic. The former made no attempt at
argument. He did not even disru fhe
j question, but denounced the legislation
tinder consideration on general princi
i pie*. Wallace confined him*-lf ex
i clusivety to the question and dealt in
nothing but argument. Hi* language
was simple, terse and vivid, if rhetor
ic there wa* only enough to properly
dreas hi* idea*. There wa* none of
Riainc'a dramatic style, nor any of
Voorhees' florid wealth of imagery. It
wa* hard, solid, irrefutable logic from
first to last. Yet it wa* very far ftoin
being a dry speech, and throughout
he commanded the attention of both
senate and |>ecUtor*. It was the finest
of tli* many effort* that Walla-# has
made in the senate, and surprised even
those acquainted with his capabilities
a* an orator and debater. In hi* re
mark* he confined himself closely to
the real question at rnsue. and very wise
ly and very deftly defeated each and
■til of Mr. Rlaine's several effort* to dis
i tract hint from it. "He entirely demol
ished Mr. lUaine," said an enthusiastic
spectator ; and that just about "aensea"
the ailuation. He demolished one part
of Rlaine's speech with a single sen
tence. "There ia no danger, quoth
Rlsine, "because the great bulk ol the
army is west of the Mtasiaippiand
then he labored for a half an hour to
prove that the aoldiert would not aver
age one to a county. "The senator
from Maine bcjni the question." said
Mr. Wallace. "It is not what the army
as at present organized and stationed
can do, but what may be done with it in
the future if we allow the principle to be
established that one man m*j use the
army to influence elections," and the
laborious structure of Mr. P.iaine fum
bled about bis ear*. The beauty of
Wallace's speech wa* the clear, forcible
way in which he stated the point at is
sue. A single example will suffice : "It
is said lhat we are denying supplies,"
said he; "the bill doe* not say ao; it
doe# not do ao. On fhe contrary, it
grants aupplias and only tmt>oaea a con
dition which it is clearly the province
and right of Congress to impose."
Then, in a few well chosen sentences,
he showed clearly why it was the pre
rogative of the legislative branch of th*
government to say what should l>e done
with the army and h/rw dangerous it
would be to take from Congreee that
right. No abstract can do the speech
justice. It was an indivisible unit, and
when put before the people in it* en
tirety, as it will In the form of a cam
paign document, must surely convince
every reasoning man that on thia qutw
tion at leaat the iH-mocral* are abso
lutely right.
