THE

New York Methodist contains a

fiary diatribe against the neglect of church going during the summer. The article conclinlcs with the proposition that the devil takes no vacation during July and August. The Philadelphia Inquirer admits that this may be entirely true, hut thinks it should be remembered, in favor of human sinners, that they are not quite so well accustomed to the heat IU) his satanic majesty.

THE Philadelphia Inquirer mentions the interesting and instructive fact that while the managers of other competing railroad companies Uive fought their Stockholders, their bondholders, and even each other, through one expensive suit after anoUior, without resting from litigation anywhort! or at any time, the Pennsylvania Central has pursued the plainer, oasier, wiser course of equity, and as a result it stands to-day impregnablo against nil tho devices of those who ©qvy its succcss.

WiUT-H our revenues during the past year have shown a steady and gratifying increRtte, thoso of Great Britain for the quarter just ended show the marked falling off of nearly £3,000,000 from tliccorrcsjKinding period in 1860. Whether this dccroase is owing to stagnation in business or dishonesty on ths part of the officials holding the monoy is not yet clear but be the causes what they may, tho rcmilt shows American Government finances to bo in a more Wholesome condition than those of our great commercial riipri.

THE Cincinnati Commercial, a leading Radical organ in the West."—Journal. It is hardly to be supposed that the Journal is BO ignorant as not to know that the Cincinnati Commercial is an "independent newspaper.'

It is no more "Rad

ical" than Democratic, and utterly disclaims any fealty to, or connection with, any party. It is run in tho interest of its owners, who care not a picayune which party goes up or which goes down so that their business prospers. Ifc is tho custom of the Journal not only to quote the Commercial as a Republican paper—"a leading Radical organ"—but to speak of DON PIATT as "a prominent Radical." is'ow the truth is, DON PIATT'S business is to writo letters that are adapted to the columns of an "independent" journal. His instructions aro to avoid jmrtizan expressions, and he distributes his abuse on both parties with great impartiality. We remember when the Journal was accustomed to quote "MACK" with the same ginto that it now quotes "D. P." But all tho world knows that "MACK" never was anything, politically, exccpt a very cop. pary Democrat.

If you have any «uch-"«ispicion," perhaps yon might tell what actof the President has given rise to it? Would it be a violation of Democratic tactics to file specifications along with your charges? An honest accuser, in charging high crimes or misdemeanors, will specify acts. Will you attempt to? A failure to do ao will be equivalent to an admission that your "suspicion" is a gross libel.

IT was often remarked of DASIEL WEBOTEB that no matter where he spoke he liad something appropriate to say of the local surroundings. This habit made the "great expounder" popular wherever he addressed an assemblage, for the inhabitants of obscure towns and villages felt very kindly toward the great man who recognised the importance and merits of places overlooked by the world at largp. In this respect, remarks a cotemporary, General SKKBKAN conducts himself on the Websterian plan. The General makes a good specch, and talks not of himself or his deeds, but of his auditors. A few days ago he was called upon to address the leather dealers of Boston. What could the leader of the march from^tlanta to the sea have to say of interest to the leather trade? But he was equal to the occasion. He told his hearers that— "No manufacturing interest does more for comfort than the ene which furnishes the community with good shoes. In his marches, when making a "post," the first thing was to purchase good shoes for the barefooted. Thief General said he preferred sewed shoes to pegged shoes. He should remain a friend ofthe trade if the members furnished the army with a serviceable article, until the time when, so far as he was individually concerned, shoes would be no longer needed. His marching army had worn out a large amount of leather, and an immense number of shoes, some of them bad, which he did not believe-came from Boston."

Of course the leather men were delighted with the oratorical powers of a General who, like a true soldier, attacked them at their weakest point.

Republican Financiering. While the Democrats are howling about the'extravagance and mismanagement of the Republicans, we do not know of any more interesting reading than the regular monthly statements of the public debt. That of the first inst. is particularly pleasant, and we commend its consideration to every patriotic citizen of whatever party.

On the 1st of July, 1869, the debt was stated at $2,489,002,480.58. Now it $2,386,358,690.74. Showing a reduction for tho year of $102,643,889.84. The maximum of the debt Sept. 1, 1865, was $2,757,689,571.43. This shows a total reduction in five years of $371,330,980.69, an annual average^f $74,266,196.14!

And in addition to all this let it he remembered 1. That this includes the term of ANDY JOIINSOW, one-half of which was run in the interest of the Democratic party, and followed the usual financial policy of that party by increasing the debt. 2. That in these five years the taxes have been reduced, on both customs and internal taxes, to an amount estimated at $300,000,000 a year. 3. And that nnder GRANT'S administra. tion the monthly reduction has stcjdily increased, until for Jiftio it reaches $20,203,782.84. or at the rate of nearly $250,000,000 per year.

To this record of BUCCCSS in governmental financiering, the hiatofy of the world furnishes no paralel and the American people will not be so silly as to turn out of power a party which has shown such competency to deal with the grand problems of debt and taxation.

The Cersct Business.

In the discussion of the Tariff bill by the Senate last Thursday, an amendment was proposed to fix the duty on Corsets at §3 per doien when valued at $10 a dozen, and 35 per cent, ad valorem on three of higher value.

SIIERMAS, U»D®R instruction from the committee, proceeded to withdraw it, but SPRAOUE

rising to his feet the withdrawal

was held in abeyance. SPRAOUE said: There arc a million dozen corsets imported into this country. It is an article of very great traffic. It has become so within the last ten or fifteen years. It was not known to the tariff of the olden time.

He proceeded to say that foreign corsets were greatly undervalued in the invoices, and the government was swindled out of half of the revenue that corsets should pay at the present ad valorem rate. Hence the necessity of a specific duty. He also stated that the manufacturers of corsets in this country needed protection. As to the first cost be said:

The actual appraised cost of the corsets imported into this country, is $4 SO per dozen, whereas I have before me letters in every form, and a list of the prices that the consumers are obliged to pay for them in this country, the lowest of which is $6 28, and the highest §50.

The speech of Mr. SPRAGUE caused the adoption of the amendment—so that the Government will be certain of about $5,000,000 revenue from this single article which a well-informed Cincinnati editor speaks of as a ''murderous contrivance for deforming our women, choking their lungs, chasing the glow of health from their cheeks, inducing consumption as well as every other,disease, rendering them utterly unfit for wives and mothers, a torment to themselves and a misery to their husbands, whose feeble children soon go to the cemetery—in short, converting the jewels of the church into the greatest sinners of the land."

Idolatry of the Thermometer. It is hard to explain on any intelligible bassis [sic] except, perhaps, that itching for unprofitable knowledge born into our nature, the eager curiosity of most people during very hot wheather [sic] to know the variations of the thermometer. All day long an eager crowd may be found studying, under the full blaze of the sun, the weather bulletin of the Western Union Teleagraph [sic] Company. We all seem to take a certain pride in being a little warmer than our neighbors, and to know that to-day is the hottest on record for a number of years fills us with secret satisfaction. It is something to be ahead of the rest of the world, even in discomfort.

But the worship of the thermometer seems not only absurd, but also foolish in no slight degree. For it sets the imagination working, and so if it does not actually add to one's physical discomfort, at least disposes the system to succumb more readily to the heat. To prohibit, by law, the sale or exhibition of thermometers during a hot spell, would be, perhaps, an unwarrantable stretch of authority; but the wise man who possesses one will lock it up when the dog star rises, and steadily refuse to look at it until the seting [sic] of the same. Of the weather records one may safely say that "a little learning is a dangerous thing." The moment we see that the mercury is above ninety we begin to feel the heat ten times more than ever. In fact, watch the thermometer, and you need never expect to be cool. The best way is to go about your business, if you have any, and pay no .attention, to the heat.—<N. Y. Times>. ———<>———

The Great Boat Race.

From the 8t. Louis Democrat extra, of Jnly 4th, we clip the following: THE HOME STRETCH. 1

At twenty-five minutes past 11 o'clock, the Robert E. Lee passed her place of mooring, at the New Orleans wharf boat, firing a gun as she got opposite. Now the pent up enthusiasm of the people broke forth in shouts and yells, waving of handkerchiefs, and tossing of hats. The salute was returned by those on board the Lee. As she passed we observed two col' ored men sitting astride the cross timbers of her jack-staff one seemed to be playing a banjo, while the other was yelling at the top of his voice—the mouths of both were gaping wide, displaying the whitest of teeth. The Lee 'PASSED ON to the head of Bloody Island, where she rounded to. The multitude followed her up the levee, and there was a scene Of wildest confusion—men, women and chil dren hurrying along as in chase ofthe boat baggage wagons and hotel coaches dashing through the crowd—people -rushing on shore from the steamers and wharfboats, and everybody panting with excitement.

The shouts were not so loud as were'expected they would be from the.size of tlie crowd. The enthusiasm was not so demonstrative as became the imptirtance of the occasion. The colored boatmen, how ever, mnde a great deal of noise, home of them yelling at the top. of their voices, some tailing on the groufid and.rolling over in the agony of delight..

Slowly the victor backed about, and gracefully moved .down stream, then rounded to again arid came up alongside ofthe wharfboat, to which.she was made fast. Then there was a grand rush on board, and the friends of- tjij'e pfficeregrasped their ..hands and tendered their congratulations.

The following dispatches wiSre delivered to Captain Cannon immediately On his arrival:

^NEW ORLEANS,

THE CHINESE QUESTION.

Opinions of a "Mongolian 'JffrcfcaBtt

Since tlie|com pie tion of the Pacific Railroad, now nearly a year since, several inr, dividuals and parties of tiio Mongolian race have visited the interior of the United States. We are informed (jby. telegraph dispatches, that the indefatigable Koopmanschap has 1,500 en route for Tennessee, but these are mainly, laborers a few have been of the better class—incrcbants and merchants' clerks. On yesterday there arrived in Chicago a gentleman representing the more advanced class of Chinese, Mr. Kim Wing, who is making a tour of the Western and Southern States, to examine for himself the facilities for providing homes for such of his people as may be desirous of permanently settling in America. He represents a class who have not as yet made their way to our shores, and who will come not to interfere with labor, but to build up and develop portions of the country not yet settled. Kim Wing is accompanied by an American gentleman, Mr. Webster, and they arc now visiting friends^ of the latter at Madison, Wis. He is about thirty-five years of age, is connected with a business house in San Francisco, where he has resided for twelve years, with the exception of a brief visit to China. He reads, writes and speaks English with ease, and is master of some dozen or more of the different Chinese dialects. He says of the Plains, "I think my people will somo time make this waste land worth something." The beautiful rolling country, the cultivated farms, and the opera" tions of plowing, cultivating corn, mow ing grass and reaping grain, between1 Omaha and Chicago On the Chicago, Bur-' lington and Missouri River Railroad, excited his admiration, and we're the subject of numerous notes. He believes that if a more liberal policy is piirsued by. our .Government towards the Chinese, many of the better class will come here, not to accumulate a little money and then go back, but to live here, permanently. A short stay will, be made in Wisconsin, when a Icishrely tour will .be.faken through Missbu'ri, Tennessee and Several other Southern States, particularly.Tbias,

In England we have really very few, female writers, after the half dozen or, so of professional authoresses whose names are known to us all and the English Vo man hardly ever becomes a jonrnalist, or writes regularly for the newspapers Here in the United States women are everywhere involved in the innermost, recesses of the world of journalism. If .a woman of education wants to make-her living in one of these cities she seems now to thuik first of all of writing for the newspapers and magazines, just as an English girl's lirst idea, would be lo become a governess. And it must be o)vned that when an American girl thinks,she can write she is not easily persuaded to the contrary, or discouraged from persevering in her efforts. I know something of the inner life of a certain New York weekly journal, and have been in the habit of spending some time more or less of every working day there and I venture to affirm that of the amateur contributors who penetrated, wholly uninvited, into the editorial room, and presented there a bundle of manuscript, at least two out of every three werfc woirien, atid a considerable proportion of these were girls under twenty.

How many times have I listened with profound interest to the debate which, would take place betwen one-of the editors of the Journal and one of the fair amateurs! How calmly, firmly, fluently,fearlessly she would expatiate on the peculiar attractions of her essay, poem or story how gracefully she would wave away, not without a dash of gentle scorn in her tone, the mild and elementary objections of the editor—the objection, for instance, that he had already had seven successive articles on the same subject, of which the last was published that very day or

that the views expressed in the proffered essay were diametrically opposed to those of himself and the journal or that his literary columns were filled up already for six months in advance or that he never did or could accept long romances, and this seemed to be a preternaturally long romance. The lady, probably eighteen year.- of age, liad meanwhile calmly taken a chair, arranged her skirts, and sat down to argue the question and how eloquently, vivaciously, eagerly she did argue it! How her eyes sparkled and her tongue rattled 1 And when at last it became evident that the thing could not be accepted, the chances were that in nine cases out of ten the disappointed young woman took her defeat with the most perfect good-hnmort and, dismissing the subject of the rejected manuscript altogether started an animated talk on things in general'before bidding good-bye to the inexorable editor and setting forth to try her fortune with some one else.—JudinMcCarthy.

Reminiscence of Dr. Dnnciin—Log Cabin Life.

Whether ijt was from personal choice,1 or from a secret desire to imitate in dress, as he rfcsembled in figure, Mr. Webster, we ciannot Bay but' certain it is that whenever.,we S&w him he wore dark pantaloons, buff cassimere vest, and blue dress coat with brass buttons, which was Mr. Webster's ordinary dress when in.the Senate or upon the forum.

Dr. Duncan liad the appearance of a lover of good things—good diftners, good wines, and good company—and: such was his character. He was elected first to Congress in 1§36 from Cincinnati, and wjis re-elected in 1838. In 1840 was defeated tiy his Whig opponent, Jtoj Peritf-/, Mori bul he was again elected in 1842/ defeating Mr. P.endleton, ~and: sc'ryed'in the' llotiBe nntil 1845: Abotit this tiiufe his health began Ho" Tail,1 artd -continued' failing 'until ..the spiftng of 1852, ,when he died: We do not know hw" age, but should judge he' had not reached the age,'Of three-score at the time .of deafh.1 Men of all pat-ties spoke. kindly and respcfctfrilly of Dr.: Duncan ^hen We lived in Ohio/and yet probably there was no promiticnt person- oh the Democratic side -fnot evon Amos Kendall.nor Isaac Hill wlho wis .mire cordially hated and, abused by thb AVhigs than by the Bepresentative from Cincinnati :du¥ihg the campiiign of 1640.' He was the cause of inhumerablc' jibies and1 Jokes in the Louisville' Journcd. MJ^. Prentice appeared to tnke: -infinite delight in sedfing him. Here is one passage*which we remember: The Cincinnati Enquirer} in speaking of Dr. Duncan, incidentally said: "There is no man in Congress who can bring an intricate question dowii to a point so quickly as I)r DunCiin." This- Prentice quoted in the Louisvill Journal, and added: "We don't know how it maybe with him in a matter of argument, but we1 know that .therpis ho man in Congress that can britjg a (juarHot whisky down to a pint as quickly as the Doctor!"

The following extract gives the Doctor's views and experience of log cabins and log-cabin life: "SIR—I delight in the very name of a log cabih. There is no name in the English vocabulary that dwells upon my lips with so much "delight as log cabin. It brings fresh to mv recollection scenes of youthful pleasures which I have never since, nor ever will again, enjoy. Many and oft is the time that I thought a day a month in anxious watch for the setting of the «un, which was the token for the rally to the frolic of the log cabin, where I met the comrades of my youth in dance, play and song In the times of which I am speaking log cabins were what the term means—ahouse made of round logs, one storv high of dimensions suited to the size of the family, who were to inhabit it, and sometimes witlv reference to an increase a puncheon floor, tin-back loft, and a clapboard roof. The industry of the: matron and her daughters was disiplayed by thick folds of linsey frocks,

taloons and hunting-shirts which beits walls. Its loft was underhun,

pumpkins, and ana lighted

with strings of dried its. capacity .heated with a large wood are from its capacious chimney. So much for description now for the frolic. It consisted in dancing, playing, and singing love and murder songs, eating Johnny cake and pumpkin pies, and drinking new whisky and brown sugar out of a gonrd. Our dancing in my youthful day, and in,my neighborhood, was done to uie performance of an old Irishman with one leg, with the heel of which he beat time to a fiddle with three strings to the air of "Barney, lot tho girls go home," for, if I recollect right, I tnink onr fiddler conld only play one tune. "But let me tell yoaigir,onr girls were not to be sneezed at" They presented a form in beauty that marked the developments of nature when unrestrained by corsets and the withering dissipation of fashionahle and high life, and their guileless hearts looked through a countenance that demanded confidence in' their innocence and unsullied virtue. But, oh, their forma! When you applied your arms to their waist in the giddy waltx, with the twenty-five yards of warm liincy in which they were comfortably enrapped, you had an armful of health and firmness. These constituted my .pleasures iq the dapioflog cab%fit &», will be recognized Ey those who nave been round in the Western country

-tiftt -aENATE..., ., WASIIINOTON, July 2. The Atlantic and Pacific Railroad bill was briefly Considered and amended to make actio?- conditional upon completion of the whole road in 1878.

An amendment to prevent encroachmerits upon Indian reservatioris by-' ariy land grants to companies, was discussed without action., ..

The naturalization bill. was. taken up, Sumner's amendment striking out the word "white" from the naturalization laws having been adopted,' the question was upoh Mr. Williams' amendment to exclude Chinese from its benefit.

Mr. Stewart continued his rerilarks against placing Chinese upon an equal footing with other foreigners. While he would protect Chinese in their rights, he would never sanction the introduction of a system of slave labor in-competition with white labor. He would not inter fere with voluntary Chinese immigration, but would never agree to invest with'political power imported Coolies.

Conklirig appealed to Mr. Sumner to withdraw the amendment, which would jeopardize the whole bill.

Mr. Trumbull said the policy .of the Republican party having been, to make freemen, he could riot, understand how that party could refuse to admit Chinftc to citizenship.

Mr. Sumner declined withdrawal of the amend menL He read from the New Testament relative to Peter denying his master, and remarked that a Republican "Senator, (meaning .Stewart,) had thrice denied the principles of the Declaration of Independence, and like Peter he might weep bitterly.

Mr. Stewart replied the charge of apostacy, applied with much greater force to the Senator from Massachusetts, as he had read, from the Christian Bible in support of his proposition to commit our institutions to the control of Pagans, the enemies of Christianity, who could not be bound by a christian obligation or oath.

Mr. Williams contended the" Declaration of Independence, did not mean that heathens or cannibals were to be allowed equal political righU under onr lawsl— Such interpretation of that instrument was foolish and absorb. Its author had declared all men created equal, but they also declared it was the right and duty of a nation so to organize the powers of Government as would seem most- likely to effect its safety and happiness.

Mr. Williams then made a lengthy argument against giving Chinese the benefit of naturalization.

Mr. Schurz thought the excitement about Chinese emigration needless. He feared no deluge of Chinamen, and cited

yeire tor tmporf a,1 million. JJe favoreJ Stewart's IHIL to- prohibit Coolie, contracts, because they inaugnrated a speciefljOi slavery.

Mr. Girperster 'ftrgtfcd all botlnd-by the laW wtsne entitled to a voice in maldiig KMcirfe Aat die right to ti.e negro must u«) ^pliea to Chinese.
