TIME csw BISHOP OF OREGON.---AB
our' readers are aivare. the unanimous
choice of the General Convention of the
P. E. Church, lately assembled in New
York. for a Missionary Bishop to Ore
gon and Washington Territory, fell up
on the Rev. Benjamin Wistar Morris,
Rector of St:. 4uke's Church, German
town ; and, as= he has signified his= ac
ceptance of the weighty.trust thus corn-
Mitted to him, .heis tabe _consecrated
in St. Luke's Church, Philadelphia, on
the 3d of December tlext.'
Mr. Morris was born in Tioga County,
Penna. Ho is the son of Samuel Wells
Morris and his wife Annagills, a
daughter of Arerey Ellis, a distinguish
ed Friend. His . ancestors for• several
generations on both sides of the family
were members of the - Soot ety of
Friends, and his education was-in part
obtained at the well-known West-town,
Boarding School, in Chester County.
He finished his studies, preparatory
to entering on . %.business life, in the
Wellsboro A.cairdmy, for a time in
charge of Barnard, since Superin
tendent of the Public Schools of Mas
sachusetts. After several years spent
in business, Mr. Morris' attention was
called to religious :subjects and to the
Ministry of the Church, chiefly through
the agency of the Rev. G. W. Nott and
the Rey. Charles Breck. 'He became a
candidate for ,Holy Orders in the year
1842, Mid entered the General Theologi
cal Seminary. in New York, in 1848,
graduating in-1840.- He was ordained
Deacon, by Bishop Potter, (of Penn
sylvania,) in- the month of June, 1840,
and immediately became a Missionary
in charge of St.. Matthew's Church,
Sunbury, Pa. In-1850,- he was institu

of St. Luke's Church, Germantown.
In the month of October, 1887, he was
called to be Reetor,of St.- Peter's, Phila

It Is to_be hoped that the talk about
Increasing the salary of the President
to $lOO,OOO per annum will expend it
self by-and-by. -The sa ary is ample as
it is, and if it is not; it is not now a
good time to increase it.„Andrew John
son will save not less than $50,000 out
of his term. Any man can save a nice
competency out of such a salary in four
years. But we care notblngabout that,
We have a debt to pay and cannot af
ford to c be generous even to Gen. Giant.
It Is not likely that the General wants
his salary' increased. He never asked
for promotion, and though 'a poor man,
will somehow rub through on $25,000
'per annum.

The pot begins to boil. - Men are run

must be suffering Ite tortures of the

—But then-Lthe offices are to be dis•

question of " who." - Go in. Don't
trouble Gen. Grant, though, as other
Presidents have been, troubled. ..Don4
bother him about . offices. Let him

THE OUTLI?011i
In forecasting the position of parties
in the future no prof etie vision is
needed. The campaigns of 1860, 1884,
1866, and 1868, sufficiently demonstrate
the esteem in which the contending
parties are held by the masses. De
mocracy no longer means Justice and
olvil equality in American politics, but
violence, anarchy, and confusion; or
in other words—an attempt by men of
vicious instincts to establish an aristoc
racy.
The ban of public opinion can never
be withdrawn from the pitrty calling It
self Democratic if the Republican and
independent press performs its duty
conscientiously. The stupendous frauds
attempted and perpetrated, in Pennsyl
vania and New York in the late cam
paigns, under the direction and by the
connivancia of the leaders of that par
ty, alone, should disable it from further
formidable operations. But it 4s not al
together-in these attempts to destroy
free government by corrupting the
sources of power that the utter vtllainy
of these leaders appears. We cite at
tention to the fact that through the
machinations of these leaders the re
fusal to obey the will of the majority
culminated in the rebellion of eleven
States, and the hostility of the bulk of
their followers in the North to the
constitutional government. And fol
lowing this refusal to obey the will of
the people came the four years of war,
with its slaughter and d l ibt. We cite
attention to the fact, that these :villain
ous leaders, from ultra jealousy (simu
lated, no doubt) pt 4 British influence,
descended to the deeps of waiting upon
Loud Lyons in 1882, and begging him to
bring about British mediation between
the Federal Government and the reb
els. As this is matter of record we pro
pose to be minute in the .charge, But
the worst feature of the attempt to use
British Influence to control the Gov
ernment of the 'United States is, that
these traitor leaders evidently intended
to combine England and the • South
against the administration of Abraham
Lincoln, and s o defeat the purpose of
the war ptil its part.
Taking into consideration the tradi
time of the Democratic party, the fact
hat It boasts of owing its existence to
hostility to British influence, and the
other fact, that its very life for the last
half century has subsisted in its old and
humbug cry of—" Down with the Brit
ish ;" taking these , fads into consider
ation,, the action of its leaders in their
proposition to Lord Lyonain 1882 ought,.
to s,eal that partea damnation whilethe
world stands. But there is a blacker
account scored ' up against that., party
than even its proposed betrayal of the
Country into the hands of its unnatural
mother.
We allude to rte open and undisguis
ed joy upon the occasion of Union re
verses during the war. Everywhere, in
the little hamlets as well as in the
centers, the fades of the leaders and the
viler of tlllll3 -- follewers, were a perfect
index to the war news of the day. No
man needed to open his paper to learn
the nature of the news._ had but
to examine the countenance of the first
Coppezhead whom he met, and know
what the telegraph bad spoken. On the
other hand, these leaders found an in
dex to the news of the day in the, faces
of Union men. But the difference was
remarkable. Wben the reports of vic
tory favored the rebels, thesO Copper.;
head leaders went about with :beaming
countenances, and gathered in little
knots to congratulate each other. But
on these occasions the faces of Union
men were eloudedand troubled. When
victory perched, upon the 'Union stand
ard, these leaders and their followers
Went about the streets Nifilth long' 'faces
and drooping heads, They wire "weary
of the slaughter ;" they were " trlsub
led about the wid(4s and orphans."
put on these occasions the Union Men
were seen with beaming countenances

As an evidence of progress in the
world of newspapers, none is more
notable and convincing than the late
enlargement of The Independent. It is
now a quarto of seventy-two columns,
and the largest paper 'devoted to re
ligious and general news iu the world.
THEODORE TILTON, its editor in chief,
is one of the most •effective writers of
this or any other country, a radical of
radicals, in whom there is no humbug.
Ho is always earnest and direct. The
paper enters upon its 21E4 volume with
an accession to its editorial Staff, being
no less a man than Mr. Justin McCar
thy, late editor of the London Star, and
one of the most noted 'editors in -Brit
ain. The first number of the new vol
ume contains 43 columns of -reading
matter, comprising almost every 'subL ,
ject, religious, secular, . and scientific.
The Independent, as most people know,
is devoted to the 4dvoditcy of Christian
ity rather than to any particular sect.
We take the Independent as a bona fide
subscriber, because it is a copious index
of current events in the religious and
secular world.
it is no part of our,business to magni
fy Tioga County at the_expense of oth
er counties; - but there is the one fact
that the Republican majority in this
county at the November election was
49 29-30 per cent. of the entire vote of
both parties. We see that some of our
cotemporarles are lauding neighboring
counties to the skies for their 'noble ma
jorities—ngne of which reach the per
centage of Tioga.
IsTot that it matters much whether the
politicians praise Tioga or not. The
politicians did not roll up the Republi
can majority in this county . . The peo
ple did it. They had done it about a
score of times before., not for pregb, but
for the cause of Justice. But in pass
ing the honors around do not, out of
jealousy or spite, forget that Tioga
County gave the greatest majority in
proportion to its population, of .any
county in Pennsylvania. That's all.
Several Republican cotemporaries in
the central and western, counties, have
already declared for the renomination
of our excellent Governor; Gen. Geary.
This is all right. We wish, however,
to say that Gov. Geary's renomination
is demanded by every consideration of,
public policy, as well as by his merito
rious service. The Commonwealth has
never been 'more conscientiously; and
judiciously governed than during the
last two years. He Is a man of honor
and honesty, fearless in discharge of
duty, and zealous for the progress of the
Commonwealth. We are glad that he
has placed himself In the hands of the
people, not being troubled with the
qualms which seem to have seized the
'peliticians, since his renomination is
talked of. The people will decide the
whole matter for themselves and the
hungerers for place must submit.
We owe the editor of the Wayne Co.
Herald an apology. He is not a ehuroh
member, it seems. However, his re
joinder bran evasion, and not a defence
as he &sires it to-he understood. He
had the same despatches that we had,
and instead of using them published
news (?) made up for the occasion by
New York politicians. ,Never, in our
capacity as an editor have we - wittingly
deceived our readers in giving the news
of the day, for political or other purpo
ses; and when it becomes necessary to
descend to systematic falsehocid to serve
a party, that wilt mark the day of our
withdrawal from the field. •
We hope the Tenure of Office law
will not be repealed. On the contrary
we pronounce for a still greater restric
tion of the Executive prerogative. tio
long as the present lcose way of filling
places prevails, more third-rate than
first-rate men will get into place. Pre
