AN EJECTION FROM TIM CUTTLE.
FISH.
The Commercial delights in generalities
so vague that it i is difficult to tell with tol•
erable certainty who or what it aims at.
It more than intimates that there are very
bad men on the Republican_ ticket, and
who consequently ought to be put off. It
urges us to help in that enterprise; but
fails entirely to particularise who ihe bad
men are, and in what consists their bad.
ness. We cannot act upon sitch in
definite suggestions. We •havll with
critical exactness examined the names
of the candidates that stand at the
head of our columns, from Governor
down to Director of the Poor, and have
not found one that we believe ought to
be stricken from the list. Perhaps, if we
had been consulted, and our wishes had
been followed, the ticket would not be
exactly as it is. But many men are
required to form a political party,
and no oie man, or journal—not eve*
one of so mach self-sufficiency as the
Commercial—can have matters his or its
own way. With due humility we accept
the fact that we are only one among
many, and that one, in large movements,
seldom counts for much.
Now, if our neighbor really believes
that there are bad men in nomination on
the Republican ticket, let it have manli
ness enough, just once, to come from
the underbrush of general accusation,
and state plainly who it means, and
by what specifications it justifies the
arraignment. It ought to stop
skulking, first of all, for its own
Own sake; next for the sake of those can
didates, If any, which it may concede to
be honest and honorable; and, last of all,
for the sake of the Republican party, if
,indeed it has any regard left for that or
ganization. Who do you impeach, and
with what show of evidence? Now, let
us hear you speak exactly to the point,
or else forever after hold your peace.
WHAT COMES OF TALKING WITH
THE 'PEOPLE.
-- -
Since the Spanish Regency has de
clined to accept the proffered mediation
of our own government, to secure peace
in Cuba, it is understood that our 'Minis
ter at Madrid has been instructed to with
draw all the pending propositions in that
direction. It is also clearly settled that
the Administration will not recognize Cu
ban belligerency, and our neutrality will
be faithfully enforced, upon the basis of
an absolute non-intervention, unless, as
IA very improbable, another policy shall be
suggested by Congress. Under the re
cent agitation of this matter, and the
pressure of enlightened opinion in this
country, the Cuban questio4 has found
its proper level at last, and will no longer
have the prominence which seems to have
needlessly embarrassed the Cabinet
councils.
The country has cause for congratula
tion.,, in the wise conclusions which the
Administration has reached in this mat
ter. When it is known that a - marked
change in the opinions of prominent °A
dais at Washington was observed imme
diately afte' the return of the President' ,
from his tour among the people, it is n ot
difficult to conclude that this tour
has itself contributed very power
fully to the new phase of the
question at the Capital General GRANT
has availed himself, evidently, of . his
widely extended opportunities to ascer
tain the sentiments of the people at large,
concerning the Cuban revolt and our own
duty in connection with it. Looking
outside of the narrow circles in which a
few professional 'politicians and a
small party of noisy eastern journalists,
who " have hitherto contrived to
represent their own interested utterances
as being the actual sentiment of thipopu
lar masses, the President has, we are sat
isfied, found, in mingling with the peo
ple within the month past, that the prop
osition to intervene, in any , shape, in the
13panish•Cuban quarrel, comprehended in
l fact a fatal blunder. He has taken the
Viebiseitum, and finds the country.to be
solidly against either a foreign war, or,
any addition to our domestic bnrthens, in
behalf of an insurrectionary mob of Cu
ban slave-drivers.
Thci President has returned it, the Capi
tal, thus instructed by his popular obser
vations, and loses no time in offic!ally re
sponding to the 'almost universal senti
ment of his countrymen. He will not
the len regret the death of his
friend and late Secretary of War,
General Riwtins, since he: is thus
precluded from convincing )iim, as he
would be if the Secretary had survived,
that every consideration of public duty,
whether to our own people or to the in
terests of a humane civilization, hea re
quired the immediate and complete re
vision of those opinions, and of that pol
icy which found their potent advocate in
the. Cabinet in the person of the late War
Secretary. .

fruits, which we see iu thiabetter phase of
the Cuban questioneat Washington, give
a grateful earnest of yet other results for
which the people may look to an Execu
tive who knows how to hear and bow to
comprehend the opinions of the people.
AN INTERESTING STATEMENT.
It is stated that, after the refusal of the
Senate, last winter, to admit the Senators
claiming seats from Georgia, on the
ground that the Legislature of that State,
in expelling the colored members "had
failed to comply with the Acts of Congress
and therefore bad no right to representi
tion," a resolution of the same purport
was offered in the House by Mr. Bout
well. The passage of this resolution
would have also unseated the Georgia
Representatives. But, while it was still
Pending; the Georgia Legislature, doubt
ful of the prudence of its course, - was
considering a resolution referring tb the
State Courts the question of the right of
colored' members to hold the office.
At the solicitation of the agents
of the Legislature, General GRANT
persuaded Mr. Boutwell to hold his reso
lution in suspense, until the decision by
the Georgia Court should be made, upen
the express understanding that all parties
would abide by the decision when render
ed. That decision was delayed until after
Congress had adjourned, the Georgia
Representatives still holding their seats
by sufferance. It has since been pro
nounced, its terms fully confirming the
office-holding rights of the colored chi-.
zen of Georgia. The conclusion is that
Georgia must now keep faith, and restore
the unseated members of color in her
Legislature, or the Boutwell resolution
will be pressed, as it should be, at the
coming session.
The public may differ in judgment
upon the policy or impolicy of the sus
pension of (proper Federal action until
the opinion 1 of a State. Court had been
takeri upon the rights of the State to dis
regard the plain intent of Federal legis
lation, but there will be an entire una
nimity of ()Pinion now, especially in view
of the curious statement here made, upon
the obligatilms of Georgia to accept for
herself the decision of her own Court to
its fullest e tent. or to abide the proper
consequences in the further discretion of
Congress. IWe.attach importance to the
facts now shaosed, since they are doubt
less true, and afford a clear explanation
of the mysterious delay in eecisiveaction
at the last session.
Wnirrnimn it is due to the logic of Sen
ator Sumner's speech at Worcester, or to
the very hard fact just revealed at Wash
ington, that the revolted slaveholdera of
Cuba have practiced the most flagrant de
ception in order to enlist American sym
pathies, we perceive that even the New
York TrOdne, which has been heretofore
clamoious -for Cespedes and his slave
driving guerillas, begins to take a differ
ent view. The annexed paragraph, from
the Tribune of the 23d, reads very differ
ently from any of its previous utterances
in the premises. For example:
Buz so far we have no buaineas to re-_
cognize even the belligerency of. the in
surgents. This is not a matter of caprice,
bat of fact. Belligerence Is a state of af
fairs to be attested by evidence.' If it
does not exist, there is nothing to recog
nize, and we certainly have no proof that
the Cuban insurgents, without forts,
tribunalspf justice, or established gov
ernnient, have yet reached that point.
Until such proof appears we cannot re
cognize them without a plain violation of
International obligations, however much
our feelings may be enlisted in their
cause.
Tan Cincinnati Commercial has this
pointed allusion, to existing difficulties in
the way of the complete usefulness of a
gentleman. ho is not wholly unknown
in this vicinity: We hear:
The report is credible that Bath. Cary
is organists secret societies throughout
the State, while in the pay of the Dom

ANoTnEit shining light in American
diplomacy is forever extinguished by the
subjoined note item Secretary Fisa to
the Brazilian. Government. Under date
of June 18th, our Secretary writes:
giSrn:on are aware that Mr. J. W.
Webb, U nited States Minister at Rio
Janeiro, has thought proper to demand
his passports from the Government of
Brasil, In consequence of the unfavoralge .
interpretation which he has Out upon

But as he had received - neither orders
nor authority to act as he has done lathe
circumstances, the. Government of the
United States hopes that his conduct, in
which it has taken no part, will not be
regarded by . the Government of Brazil as

tions between the two Governments."

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE
It is a singular fact, and one of rare
occurrence, if indeed at all, for men
not engaged in unlawful pursuits
to beat off the tax-gatherer with a
bludgeon, or cause the assassination of
honest revenue officers, whom they could
neither bribe nor frighten. The shooting
of the Philadelphia revenue officer is a
case in point. There is much truth in
the view of the _Advance, of Chicago, that
the man who will go into the whisky
business will not scruple at any crime
in carrying it on. This is pretty severe
language, and yet the 'course of many en
gaged in manufacturing and speculating
In whisky, juitifies the view taken by-this-
Chicago paper.
It haiThan-ascertained that fully fifty
churches received damage in New Eng
land, by the storm week before last.
It is stated that sometimes persons are
elected vestrymen in the Episcopal
Church, and trustees of Congregational
churches, who are not religious in the
strictest sense of that word. But the Dio
cese of Tennessee not only requires all
vestrymen to be members of the Church,
but all those who vote for vestrymen also.
The noted Malcom case of communing
with other than Baptists, came up for re
view recently, before the Warren Baptist
Association, Rhode Island. It was re
solved that while it recognizes the entire
independence of individual churchei it
does not sympathize with the open com
munion practices of some of them.
Considerable stress is laid upon the
modern mode of teaching in Sunday
Schools, by uniform lessons. Two or
three of the leading denominations have
provided for this kind of instruction, and
the Presbyterians will do likewise, we
presume, from the statement of one of the
papers of that body. The Advance thinks
a school should have the directness of a
rifle, and not the scattering qualities of a
shot gun. This is all very well, but, we
think, there is danger in abrogating some
old time features that are essential to the
epiritual success of a school. Nothing
should interfere with personal conversa
tion, by the teacher with each scholar, in
regard to their soul's salvation. This in
timacy between the teacher and,, scholar,
has been the means of the salvation of
Multitudes.
The spiritual results at the . Eastern
Camp Meetings this season were remarka
ble and more than ordinary. It is con
ceded the order and respect for the Sabbath
showed a marked improvement over
former years, owing, no doubt, to closing
the ':gates of the grounds: At Yarmarth
Camp Meeting, on Sabbath evening, sev.
enty•five to a hundred were forward for
prayers. Whole seats of young ladies
and gentlemen came together:to the altar
of prayer. At Sterling, one hundred and
twenty-five were forward at once. At
Hamilton, it was estimated that five hun
dred testified to the power and fullness of
saving grace. At Machias, Kennebec,
Hatfield, Willimantic and Martha's Vine
yard, the same display of saving grace
was seen. All these meetings occurred
in New England.
Quite a stir has been produced by the
editorial of Dr. Gilbert Haven, of Zion
Herald, published at Boston, on "Secular
Colleges," which app aced just a ft er Dr.
E. 0. Haven had rsigned the Presidency
of the Michigan University, a State In
stitution, to take charge of the Methodist
University, at Evanston, near Chicago.
The position assumed was that institu
tions of learning not under denomination
al control, with scarcely an exception,
were to a considerable extent a complete
failure, and that they were hedged about
with difficulties which prevented them
from accomplishing as much good as
they would with the same sources under
the direction of a religions body. Dr.
Haven says a secular university educa
tion is as impossible as a completely de
veloped mind without religion.
Thirty-four Presbyteries are reported
In the Presbyterian _as having voted
unanimously on the Basis of Union
of the two Presbyterian bodies.
According to the Presbyterian Rev.
James M. Platt, pastor of the Leetsdale
Presbyterian church, goes to Bath,
Genesee Valley, and Rev. J. Henry Sharp,
of Valley church (Wood's Run) accepts
a call to the pastorate of the Wharton
street church, Philadelphia.

Many of our readers are interested in
the "Ministerial Vote," by the Annual
Conferences of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, and we shall refer to it from time
to time. Seventeen - Conferences have
voted, 1,089 for 826 against—total U 415.
This is more than three-fourths majority:
If the vote maintains the same ratio in
the Conferences yet to vote, as the Seven
teen, the question of tip introduction of
lay delegation is virtually settled infavor
of the measure.
According to the Catholic of this city,
"Archbishop Manning has declared that
from a Catholic point of view, the United
States Public School system is the worst
in the civilized world." The public
achoole in this community are conducted
in a way that does not justify such a se
vere view as the Archbishop has ex-,
pressed.

They have twice enlarged the house of
worship, and next year will begin the
erection of a new edifice to accommo

One of the churches in Cherokee county,
Georgia, propose to exclude all female
members who wear hoops,,paniere, small

It is stated the following days of the
week are those set apart for pablic wor
ship in the different nations: Sunday, by
the Christians; Monday, by the Grecians;
Tuesday, by the Persians; Wednesday,
by the AssyriaBs; Thursday, the Turks,
and Saturday, by the Jews.
The following "Vinegar Story" is
vouched for by the Christian Witness,
illustrating the kind of liberality that
sometimes prevails among Church par
ishioners:
is still living?„
'Mr
"Oh! yes; one of the best men in the
parish; not very liberal, bat a good man
and very rich."
"What does he do for your support?" i
"Well, not much, but he pays his pe*-
rent."
"Does he sell vinegar now?"
"Oh! yes; he has one of the largest
orchards in the parish; and is so con
scientious that his cider is all made into
vinegar."
"Does he give you any of his vinegar?"
"Not he."
So it was in my day. His vinegar was
made to sell. When his daughter sickened
and died, I went the're almost every day
about five miles off. When she died sh
had a greit funeral, and I sat up most df
the night to write a funeral sermon. I
called the next day. Then a few days
after I went, and thought I would carry
my vinegar j lig, which j net then happened
to be. empty. The jug was filled. I did
not like to take it away without offering
to pay, for it, and so I said, as meekly as
possible: "What shall I pay you?"
"Well," said my good parishioner, "I
generally charge twenty-five cents a gal
lon, but seeing as how you have been so
kind to me in trouble etc., I won't charge
you but twenty cents."
• At this time I had eleven children and
was living on a salary of six hundred
dollars per annum." --
Death in a Sleeping Car
The passengers cn the Saturday night
train of the Atlantic and Great Western
Railroad for Cincinnati were startled
from their slumbers attan early hour in
the morning by the cry "Mother's dead!"
uttered in an agonizing shriek-from the
Year end of the car by a woman who af-
terwards proved to be the daughter of the
deceased. The circumstances attending
the death were these: The old lady, who
was quite an invalid, had been taken on
board at the village of Jameidown, New
York, where she was met by her (laugh
ter' her daughter's husband, a merchant
in Cincinnati, and a grand-daughter with
whom she proposed to spend the winter
for the benefit of her health—The old
lady, though quite cheerful, was too
feeble to sit up during the day, and one
of the sections was arranged for her to
lounge upon till bed-time, and her chil
dren were unwearying in their attentions,
watching her with such tender, thought
ful care. -as to attract the attention of
those about them. In the evening before
they retired, the young people sang a
beautiful hymn in an undertone, while
the old lady sat looking out dreamily into
the purple twilight with an expression
which seemed to tell of yearnings for the
spirit world, which was so soon to be her
home. At bed-time-she-was placed away
nicely in a section all to her self; being vis
ited from thus to time by her daughters,
to whose tender inquiries she replied that
she thought she would pass the night as
comfortably as though she were in her
own room at home. The last time her
daughter spoke to her was at two o'clock
in the morning. When she went over at
four o'clock again the spirit of the mother
had passed away to the better, land, ap
parently without a pain or struggle. It
was a strange scene, that of the bustling,
talking crowd of e arly risers, crowding
thoughtlessly about the car getting ready
to disembark, contrasted with the other,
where the corpse was laid 'out in the cor
ner section, with the children kneeling
and weeping at.the bedside and refusing
to -be comforted. The old lady was a
general favorite in the village whence she
came, and • was escorted to the cars by
quite a number of friends and acqutint
ances, to whom she said at parting, "Tell
tem all if I slip away on this journey
hat I was ready and willing to go."

(Correspondence of the Pittsburgh Gazette.]
WASHINGTON, PA., 8ept.,.23. 1868..
Thousands of people are crowding our
town to-day. They come in various
ways—on cars, coaches, horse-back, and
fn carriages and wagons, and not a few
on foot. The report put in circulation
that the President would remain till the
fair, has had much to do . with augment
ing the crowd. Bome, it will be presumed,
will feel bitterly disappointed. No one,
howeverblame,- as the President
was oalled.away sooner than he expected
to Igo.
The receipts of the Fair will be large,
but a very poor compensation is given.
Exhibitions are comparatively few. Oar
farmers seem to think it does not pay to
bring their stock and the products of
their farms. And the fact is they are not
much mistaken. The iling" has mo•
nopolized every thing. Fast horses win
—win attention and the lion's share of
the premiums. This error' must be cor
recttxl else our Agricultural Fairs will
have to be abandoned altogether.
The display to•day of fruits and vege
tables is uncommonly good. Several
very fine carriages, manufactured in our
place, are greatly admired. There are
horses, cattle, sheep, hogs And fowls, but
none of them attract special attention.
It le worth more to see the people than
anything else. They are *di dressed
and -well behaved. Sobriety and good
order prevail everywhere. Fair closes
this evening. Mums.

The Boulevard pavement is surely
gaining favor and will ere long doubtless
supercede, in a great measure, the old
brick pavement, for certain purposes.
This is no :lap-trap invention, as any
person may discover by calling at 65 Ohio
street, or examining it at other places
throughout the city where it is in use.
Messrs. McGowan tiz • Co. are the sole
agents for the Boulevard in this vicinity.
Ix is discovered by a physician that
the celebrated fasting boy of Fontein
bleu, France is secretly sustained by ab
sorbing soaps through sponges placed
against hiEr person. The boy's proprietors

One of the truest and most suggestive ideas

of this art.cle" l for of All diseases which impair
human health and shorten human life, none are
more prevalen than those which affect the lungs
and pulmonary tissues. 'Whether we regard lung
diseases in the light of a merely slight cough,
which is but the fore-runner of amore serious
malady, or as la deep lesion corroding an dis
solving the pulmonary structure, It is always
pregnant with 'evil ai d foreboding of disiste.r.
In no class of malaes should the physician or
the friends and family of the patient be more
seriously foreivarned than in-those of the lungs.
for it is in them that early and efficient treat
ment is most desirable, and it is then that danger
can be warded off and's cure effected. In DR.

ings, in harmony with the regular functions, can
be readily observed by the use of one or two bot

sympathies that disturb the harmonious work

cough, the 'painful respiration ! , the sputum

normal and proper workings of health and vigor.
An aggregated experience of over thirty years
has enabled Dr. Keyser, in the compounding of
his LUNG CURE, to give new hope to the con

relief in those now prevalent, catarrhal and
throat affections, so distressing in their effects •-•
and so almost certainly fatal in their tendencies, !
unless cured by some appropriate remedy. DB.
KEYSER'S LUNG CUBE is so thorough and ef

never be without it In the house. It will often 5
cure when everything else hills, and in simple
cases will cure oftentimes in .a few days.
