Poctimeter General Creswell has been
endeavoring to check the frauds upon
the pubfir practiced by swindlers, who
use the mails to distribute circulars of
gift and other thieving enterprises.
Special Agent Petherrbridge, of the Poet
a-ince Department, effected the arrest of
one M. C. Mass. at Chester, Penusylvs

concern, called Wogs° Clo., No. TS Nas

Special Agent Petheriniflge, having suo

on oPeologe that It contained about two
pounds of eheet lead, taken from a tea
boa, a small card photograph of • tea
dollar greenback, and a note expressing
the hope that the purchaser would be
satisfied, and that if he Wowed the dog
would be dead. BUS paid fifteen dol
lars for the investment, which proved q
fraud on him, instead of a fraud on the

Board of EduestlOn Power to Prohibit

—Argument. Pro and Con.
ttly Telegraph to the Plttsbargb Gaaette. 1
CINCINNATI, Nov. 36.—The following
points occurred in the argument of W.
M. Ramsey, yesterday, beibre the Su
perior Court for the plaintiffs to the moo
enjoining the School Board from expell
ing the Bible from the schools. To -- show
themselves entitled to the relief preyed
for the plaintiff's must establish two
propositions :
First—That religious Inatmction In
the contentplutlon of the lam to an canon
ttal element tt our Common School Sy.
tem of education.
Second—That the Board of Education
of thesity of Cincinnati hue not power
to pretalblt ell religious bistro&Jon in
the achools of the mty.
These propositions will be wet, it may
fairly be anticipated, by, first— A general
denial; second—the affirmation that lrre
a-gzal Board, any "
re i 7gi n otTe n i t ne e tf: r et t io o n f
is unlawful. I respectfully submit that
religions Instruction Is an essential part
of the fkimmon School system of educa
tion. Our Common School system was
organised under the CuusUtation of the
year ISM Schools were established by
the Legislature In obedience to the dune
thus of the Clonstittition itself. That di
rection Is contained In the words consti
tuting the concluding sentence of the
third section of ths Bill of Rights; "Re
ligion, morality and -knowledge being
essentially necessary to the good govern
ment and happiness of mankind, the
schools and - mean. of Instruction shall
forever be encouraged by a legislative
provision. not inconsiatent with the right
of atmachnice.7
After sitesaiglng:toshory that the con
eritutAon and Isms rwror religious W
ar:ruction in tamale, he says:
Bat I alßrut with entire confidenne
a proposition of law, that had the e >nab
tutton been as silent as these laws as to
the purpose for which sebools were to be
estaullehed; had it simply declared that
It should be the duty of the legislature
to establish schools, the conatltution
would be precisely the same; that reli
gious Instruction would be as clearly
cotitemplated as It is now by the ex prem
language of that Instilment.
He then quoted the custom. of public
schools In other countries and the grants
of State authority fur establishing
schools In the United States, Athena, and
Oxford, Oldo, among the Instances to
show that religious Instruction was con
templated.
In conclusion he rand These resole
tines forbid all religious Instruction. As
I before remarked, they are to substance*
a repudiation not only of Christianity,
but of all religion In the broadest sense
of which the term is susceptible. They
clearly constitute such a case as was sup•
poised by the mates In pronouncing an
opinion in the Girard Will Case, but
ram which that case was distinguished,
desire to adopt and submit to the court
as part of my argument every word of
the great argument of Mr. Webster in
that con—an arguMent that wn not an
swered or denied by the Court so far as
Its conclusions were concerned. The
holding of the Court that Christianity
might be taught in the Chohans' College
by pions laymen, avoided his conviction
without controverting his premises. The
argument occupied three hours.
Judge &alio spoke two hours yester-
day fur the defense, and wail conclude
to-day. He said Christianity was no
part of the law of the State, for If It
were, certain dude. peculiarly Chriatlan
must be enjoined upon citizens on ear.
tain rites which none but Christians
profess, the olnervance of certain virtues,
usually-called Christian, are enjoyed by
the State, not because they are Chris-
Rate, but because it is essential for the
good of society. The State enforces no
duty as a Christian dui y. The Christian
holds no civil right in preference over
Persona professing other creed. or no
creed. Tile Jew, for instance, has the
same rights as the Christian; the Name
remedies for wronger, can ane, hold prop
erty, office, vote. ills synagogue - la
exempt from taxation the same la the
Christian's church.
Be quoted the case of Bloom vs. Rich
ards, Second Ohio Report., section three
eighty-seven. Ile add: It is no objection
but ou the contrary a recommendation
to legislative enactment based on the
justice of public policy, that it IA found
coineddiwith tte pi:ecepts of pore re.

make the law rests In the legislative
control, over things temporal, not spirit
ual. for no power over thinip spiritual
