C,, May 24.—Nonrly all the Tedernl officials of New York City aro horo to-night working, first to defent tho rosolution concerning Richardson, Bnwyor, and Banfleld, ond, sccond, to provent tho adoption by the Sonato of tho LUI abolishing the moiotios sys- tom. Thoy urge with regard to the resolution that it, in effoct, consuros the Administration, ond with this appesl thoy hope to influonco the super-loyal Ropublicans against it. Under the influence of thowr nctive offorts, all sorts of graundless rumors have been put in ciroulntion, one of them being that tho Ways and DMosns Committes have raconsidorod, and coucluded not to submit, tho resolution. The question a8 to whetkor they have the right to bring in o resolution of copsure is algo rased. Theo fact is, that the Committoe have not recon- sidored the resolution, and say thot they can seo 1o reason why they ehould @o so. At the same timo, somo of thom are reflocting upon the ade visabilty of subatituting thoword * disapproval” for *‘consuro " in tho regolution. THE ADMINISTRATION SUPPORTS DIONANDSON. It soems npparont that Richardsou does not stund of hia own atrongth. The extraordinary offorts that are moking in his behalf are_ovi- dontly backed by othors high in the oconfldence, of tho Adminisiration, ———— . THE DISTRIOT INVESTIGATION. / Special Dispateh to Tha Chicago Tribune, OLUSE' TESTIMONY AUDSFANTIALLY UNSIAKEN, ‘WastinaroN, May 24.—The Diatrict Investi- gation Committeo expeot Lo oloso the taking of ovidence by Tuesday, They will do this, not be- cause thoy will havo it all in by -that time, but bocauso thoy must gob their roport rondy pretty soon, or it will not be acted upon this session. The impression meado by Clusa' tostimony is deep, snd has hed the offoct to domoralize the ringmore than anything else, Their efforts to break him down have only tonded to strongthen hin ; they nttompted to bullyrag and browbent, desconding to all the tricks of polico court shysters, THEY CAURLE A GREAT DEAL over some blunders that Cluss, who i yory oxcitablo and excossively German, hnas made, but they caunot congratulate thomsclves that they have done anything to hurt his oharacter as o witness, The fact ro- mains, that if thoy prove that he has boon con- niving at frauds, they prove the frauds simul- tancously. A member of the Committeo, who has watched the wholo investigation very care- fully, says that all tho other facts adduced corre- spond exactly with Clusa’ testimony, and that the Diatrict counsel have not been able to show him to bo anything olgo thuna thoroughly ncourate ‘witness, Messrs. Btewnrt and Hubbell, of the Cowmmittee, have subjected themselves to sovers criticism in the Inst few days by the course they bavo adopted. They not only encouraged but ASSISTED TILE COUNSEL FOR THE DISTIIOT in their attempts to discredit Cluss, by be- wildering him by their petty badgering, and by ridienlivg him to his face, n tho most harmless manner, Other membors of tho Committeo, notably Hamilton, of N. J., have reprimaded counsel for the lino of conduct they lave choson, but Btowart and Hubbell have them ungufiud with in the small business, like paid attorneys. Their most romarkable performance, however, was yostorday evening, when Jlickensderfer nppoarad with verifications of his measnrements, and, upon boing partly cross-oxamined by Bhepherd's law- yor, praduced moro measuremonts, showing new Proofs of gross frauda. At thia point, Stewart and Hubbell strenuously objectod to hearing further testimony’ from Blickeusdorfer, on the ound that he had not submitted his results to he revision of Forsyth, the ring engineer, who mado tho mosb of the_ falso mensuroment, It i difficult to understand why theso two gontle- mon, in the light of the facts before thom, have takon it upon themselves to OPENLY ESPOUKE TIL OAUSE OF TIE RING. It is notablo thet thoy are not sustained by sny other mombers of the Committoe. IVG will take & week or two after tho evidonce in sl in for tho Committes to draw up thoir roport. e THE OIVIL RIGHTS BILL, Speciat Diepatch to The Chicago Lribune, THE DILL IN FULL. ‘WasnmaTox, May 20.—~Following is the full toxt of the Civil Rights bill as it passed the Bonato: SroTron 1, That all ciizons and othor parsons within tho iirladiotion of tho United States shall bo en- itted to the full sud equal- enjoymont of the accom- modations, ndvantages, fucllitios, nd privileges of iuus, publfc convoyunces on Jaud or water, theatres aud otlioF placos of publio mnusement, aud alio of ko come mon schools and publia iustituflons of loarning or benevolence supported In wholo or 1 part by goneral taxatlon, aud_of comolorion #0 suppartad, sl ths io- stitutions kuown as agricultural collegos, ‘endowed by the United States, subjeot only o the conditions and Iimstations entabllubied by law, and applicable aliko to citlzons of overy race and 'color, regurdiess of uny ‘previous condition of servitude, 8%0.9.

Prof. Swing’s Srermon--Tho Flanting 'Debt Provited for. Thore was aot a vacunt seat in qavid Swing's Chureh, corner of Suporior and Rush streots, yosterdny morning, and over 200 peaple stood up during tho enlire services. Many could not got inuide the building at all. Previous to the deliv~ ory of his sormon tho Profossor hoped tlere would be uo demonstrations, asledid not like them. Such oxpressions had beon indulged in on former Suuduys, but ho'hopod, if anything was said in tho tulure the audienco approved of, thoy would not express thoir approval by clap- piug thoir hands. They should not bo solemn in tho sovero sonse, but cheerful, yot make a dif- foronce botweon tho house of Cod aud othor ploces. Ho thon said: You will find my toxt this morning in the Gos- ol of Matthow, sixteenth chaptor: *Can yo not discorn tho signs of {he times ?” and jn the sixth chapter: “For your Ilonvenly Father knowetlx what things yo have neod of bofore ys, ask Him." - Theso presages will lond mo to make somera- marks to you to-dey thnt shall have no referenca whatovor (o any recent ovents, but upon these themes,—the changing times, and the chunging wauts they bring, The progress of mankindis not only s progress of idens, aud of weallh, and of montal powers, but it is also » progress of wants,—a progress of longings in the hedrt. Every ntop that uncovera somo old poverty of knowledgo, revealn nlso some xays of the apirlt. It {s ofton complained that riches aro of littlo value, inasmuch a8 s porson's dosires oxpund s rapidly as his fortuno expandy, and at the yonr's ond he has nothing left, This complaint {s well founded only when the dosires that thus expand are unworthy. But whon they aro worthy of God, and of man, then the more they wideu out the bettor. And to have gold lett at the end of the yoar, may bo proof tbat tho soul bins boen slighted ; that it Las boon placed upon half rations ; that it has beon doniod sonio of its aspirations after books, or travel, or usoluiness, or has comanhort in charity, or in re- ligion. The mora noblo wants a soul gratifles in itd caroor, the belter its lifo, for the value of lifo may be measnred by the nobleuoss of tho desiren it gratifies. If, in youth, for examplo, your cir- enmstances only ~ permitted you o givo & pleco of hread to somo outonst child, and in later yoars your wealth and desires bave wo increasnd that you can now educate aud clothe s bundred poor oach year, thon you have bocomo mora powerful by the growth of your dosires; and hence that would soem alweys tho greatest life which builds up and gratifles within the most and tho nobleat spiritnal impulses. Ho that in this century voveals a wish to pleaso, in sorae way, hié fellow-man, or to edueato bettor his own mind, must be quoted as o soul that has mndo preat progress ainco the time when Cain il ‘othier, or ginco the time when Juday iis Lord for u hiandful of silver. the progress of mankind is continually exprcus g dtself, not only in incroased loarning, and nits, aud iudustrios, but in the things which society wants for itself, and which it wishes to Destow upon its follow-man—oxpresaes itselt by it desires. . With the great changes which onch ern brings in learniug and wenlth, come also these changos in the publie need, just as namerous snd just us wondorful ag all the marvelous transformations in nelence. Tho modern world comes in with 1ot only uew forms of houses, and elothos, and oorringos, and farnltnro, but with neyw spiritul longings, such ns were searcoly dreamed of in tho days thut are gone. Let mo illustrato this, that yon may more oloarly perceivo the changing neot of tho times in religion, Once tho human family set down (Ylfim contontodly undor tho dominion of Kings; tho thought that evory man was hinwelf & Xing, aud that the Royal Monarch was only ono of the common crowd, troubled the braing of very fow, T'hoy folt no need of liherty. The divine right of Rings was a8 unquestioned s tho diving right of the sunsbiuo, of day and night., And in their view God no mora made tho earth aud the occan, than He made the King to Lv King, and tho Queon to be Queen, 'There was no fongiug for liberty. Intho days of Elizahoth, one of the 1nost cminont men showed i, in n swarm of boes, whoro oll obeyed ono Quoon, the Craator lind clearly foroshndowed hu~ man government, wherein the inultitude should subrit their wills to the God-appointed Quoen, Besn of England. Proved it thus! Out of much tines tha love of porsonal liber- ty was u ulow growth, the new want coming slowly, just a8 came_the discovery of steam- power, or the invention of tho tolegraph and railway, Mon not ounly did not formerly possoas mueh froedor, hut they wers not conscious of : their povorty in this rogard.

IMuatrate Ziu thomo by that great want now visible Suler the nmme, for_oxample, of books,—of & wablic press. To road has now becomo an gse sntial part of overy respeotablo human lifo. 'ho voico of tho oratorin Congress, or at tha lar, is robbed of much of its ofd glory by tha Ziomo oloquence which the art of printing hox +Zrriod to every liousohold, A new tasto, n new losiro, has boon kindlod, and now tho humblost “workman may possess eloquence, and keop it in bis humble room, the sourco of daily cultura and hnp‘:lnoua. Out of the printing-press has beon evolved this new appetito, this now apirit- . ual longing, of which the heart did not once fo much as even romotely dream, but whick h naw become a groat fack in all the oxtent of & clety. - Now, in view of these unfolding wishes of the human soul, great in thoir power, and divine in their quality, may wo unot repent from them the words of tho toxt: * Your Heavenly Fanther Lnosoth I.hlf.rio bave need of all thase things boforo yo ask Him,” aud it {8 wall that &hnm%s ono who thus reads human lifo in advanco, for thero i8 o sonso in which wo poor mortals must have ronched nnd must have triod a blossing Tefoye wo kuew onough about it to even pray for it,—or to ncok its bestownl. If God vinitod for bis childron fally to know their nood and rocelve it, poor indeed would have been the lifo of all His myrinds on thia footstool. Tho efforts of man and tho glorions *munificence of God are always combiued, the munificonce of God being always tho grontor and tho leading quantity. For oxample, while man_indeed nunfiht liborty in the ontest, God stood by him with n richer gift than was com- passod in the prayars of the first patriot. Ha knot tho need of mankind far beyoud the human prayer, auu while man stood working over the first rude types, and tho first rudo printing, the Henvonly Iathor stood near him with a blessing of literature far boyond the printor's firat dronm. Ho knew what the world had nced of in ad« vanco of his prayor,—that I, boyond his prayer, These thoughts may illustrate my moro refigious themo. — In the providence of the Groat Father, new roligious needs will spring up hera an thore, and now nnd then, aud they will grow and strongthon and bocomo & coustant eloment over sfterward in tho world's daily thought and daily action, No_ power afterward can ovor eliminate thom. They bacomo a perpetual part of theology, and of human lite, and of human experieuco. ‘Who can find all the hidden gatoways by which the now human longing for a God a8 a friend, for a Savior a8 a friend, bas in tho past twonty- flvo yoars, coming right out of tho ulmuow—lmg, invaded fully all hwrian hearts? Who can sea the gates by whigh'the raud now longing hais .gome? 2 . Homo ono will inform you that the age hnstons to make God only ‘o °Father, becauss it dosires to pin with impumty; that iy widens out the influite love, becauso it desires to escape the constant fear of God's justice 3 but, unfortunately for this thuflmnifl, it is not the infidel mor the criminal multitudes. only which betray this swostor view of God, but it iz the entire Christian Church of overy name; they certainly aro not desiring to 8in with im« puuity. 'Tho most profoundly pious souls, and the most deoply evaugolical churches, join with all the scholars aud with the skoptical world in botraying this hungering of the hoart after o God and Savior that possoss tho charm of au infinite sympathy. Butit is nothing else than u growing noed of socioty, and longing of the human hoart, that God lhimsolf hog ovoked. If only tho openly sinful hun- gored for this henovolent God, one might feol that thoir mtercsts wore tho fathor of tha thought. Dut this longing scems so universal that wo cannot but intarprot 1t as au unfolding of tho new pages in the great religion of Jesus Christ,—nothivg eolio than tho bursting of a soaled’ book, whoso pages God Limsotf has suthorized the century to unscal. Another instance it is where God knowa what things His children need oro thoy asked Him. They know not what to pray for, but God kuow their wnnt, I beliove also thiy, that in an era whon scionco was to advance so far iu_seoking the origin of life, that it would itself wstand right wpon tho borders of atheism, and not only 80, but invito us to come thers nlso and stand, tho Henveuly Father, rouding this new danger, built up suddonly such a vonception of Limselt a8 n love, as u friend, that human affec- tion for the Creator might rise up and resist a materialism which the old terror or old su- peratition could never have aseniled or do- fonted. It ik n singulur providenco that by just as much ag times try to take nwsy God, {usa 80 much does Ohristionity mako God moro lov- able, aud mnke us loss willing to give him up. Now, my frionds, men will refect what they dread, but thoy will never rejoot what thoy love. T thero is a concoption of God snd of Josus Chgiut which will_bo able, through all the noxt ity poats, to battlo against the new forms of athelsm viging nbove tho horizon, it is the con~ ception of God a8 n TFather, wise, loving, and lovable. - This alono will prove equal to tha grave task of meoting tho materialist snd tho stheist. Cod must not be an intolleotual beliof only, much less a mero tyrant mliui:l ovor men, but Ho must be onturoned iv the Leart as the blessed souree of 1ife and tho foundation of all thoso grand Lopes boyond. God sud heaven must bo made o loyable that sclenco cannob pluck thom from tho heart. . Yestorday thero came to me words from threa human hearts, from different sources 1 tha lnud, Two_ were lotters from infidels, Tho; Lind always beon such, ncting as such all throug 1ife, but now, in older yoars, confoss that a lov- ing God_is building np in thoir henris a now ploty, and- & nqw longing for immortality witl: that God,—perfoot outpourings of a trust in o living God, Tho third meesage way from a Chyistian_mother, who wished me to bury hox only ohild, called from hor home in thoe sixth yoar,, Bhe sd: Y1 look up ta my 'deavenly Fathor, and find porfect peace.” This I8 a feature of Qod and of Christ thet will moet athoism all nlong the human pathway, and will make the banner of our Lord wave sbove Luman_ life long aftor the flag of ntheism has beon bleachad, and even forn by storms from fts stafl, Iore came throo mes- gugos, two of thom from distant parts of tha fand from infidels, and ono from s Christinn mother here, all of them looking up to this Heavonly Fathor witha love undreamed of In the past. . Tho Bible, long ago, doflned God as bein, Love, and_says, nleo, that o so loved the eart! a8 to'sond His Son' into it, And heuco all this presont.contempintion of the Deity asbelng a friend, is only a rising up of mankind to reach the graud truth of the Holy Book, e only go back to the revelation of God, After ifififl yonrs,—yens of fmporfection, and even of wild madness as Lo the nature of the Deity,—a want han sprung up for the vory God oalled Love sa long ago. Lutting theory all asido as to tho causes of tho phenomenon, tho faol stands that our aga neods deoply o Ileavonly Father, It will waive all quontions that are simply strange or Jwarplux- ing. It will confous thu limitations of knowl- edgoe_about this God, snd will hold fast to tho Infinita Ono, if it can fool that Ho is a Fathar loving the world, or that He js # Christ redooming s world, and geutly entroafing all. And yet I nowhere percelve any dimpouition on the part of mankind to make jn- ditforouce to siun an attribute of this Heavenly Father, Isoc nothing of this, That sin de- vorves, and will recolve, punishment, in a fact wiiloh s hold Jusc as widoly as tho bollof in this Tutluite Fathor luhold, 1t has nevor besn my fato to meot with an infldol or skeptio who las donted that sin desorves puuishment, TLere is o small olass of thinkera who hold that there ix no such thing as guilt, beeausn thero is no tuoh thing as freo will; but thoso ars fow, and are oxcoptions fn tho world's gread multitude, The fagh that tha
