A New York letter to the Cincinnati Gazette contains this statement concern ing the religious belief of the Presidents of the United States : It is to be observed that all the Presi dents were, with one exception, men who respected Christianity. Washington and Garfield, however, were the only ones who were church communicants. Ad ams married a clergyman's daughter (Abigal Smith), but he did not accept her views. lie was inclined to Uuitari anism, which in his day was becoming very prevalent in Massachusetts. Jef ferson was not a believer in Christianity at least while President. He had, during his residence in France, become skeptical and his election was opposed by some on the score of infidelity. After Tom Paine had written his Age of Reason, Jefferson luvited him to return to America, which was understood to be a direct recognition and acceptance of his opinions. Infidelity at that time was so fashionable that in polite society it was rather eccentric to avow different opinions. Madison, while a student at Princeto n College, was of a religious turn, but it wore off" under the cares of office. His early religious connections were Presby terian. Monroe is said to have favored Episcopacy. John Quincy Adams was inclined to Umitarianism. Jackson was a Methodist, and died in the communion of that church. Van Buren was brought up in the Reformed Dutch Church, but after ward became inclined to Episcopacy. Harrison favored the Mothodists. Tyler was an Episcopalian. Polk was baptised by a Methodist preacher after his term of office had expired. Taylor Favored Epis copacy. Fillmore attended the Unitari an Church. Frank Pierce was a member of the Congregational Society in Concord though not a communicant. Buchanan was a Presbyterian. Lincoln attended Gurley's Church (Congregational) as of ten as he could, but was not a member, though his religious convictions were deep. Grant's predilections are well known, and so are Garfield's. The World's London special says : The feeling ot humiliation over the iuglorious cesult of the struggle with the Boers, has been aggrevated by the news of the Boers' demand for ihdeinnity for the loss and in jury inflicted on them. The Boer lead ers claim, and the British government by its course practically admits, that the war was forced on them. It is difficult to see how Gladstone can refuse to enter tain their demand. Experienced and impartial judges be lieve that this Boer business will involve the compulsory retirement of England from the whole of South Africa before very long. Many anticipate an early re newal of the war. The agreement arriv ed at by Gens. Joubert and Wood is little more than an armistice. The actual con ditions of peace will not be definitely set tled until the Royal Commission gets to work. The Boers can easily object to some of the dotails, and if they do they will not be left to face the British single hauded, the feeling against the blunder ing and bad faith shown by the Colonial Ofllce agents being almost as intense in the Orange Free States as in Boerluud. A great South African Republic Is quite among the probabilities. Queen Victoria's gold anil silver plate which is kept at Windsor is said to be worth $15,000,000. When the Qneen en tertained the late Czar shortly alter the marriage of his daughter to the Duke of Edinburg, gold plate to the value ol $lO,- 000,000 was used. The custodianship of the gold pantry at Wiudso r is considered an office of great trust. Business Cards. ALVORD & SON, JOB PRINTERS, DAILT RKTIKW OFFICE, Main utreet, Towanda I'a. DSAVEIiCOOL, .
