Theso charges firab paw the light fn the columns of Woodhuit ana Olaflin's Weekly, n papor publishod by tho natorions Mrs. Woodhull and hor equally noto- rlous gistor, Tenuio C. Clatlin, "Phio character of theso women, who from the most charitable point of view aro advonturosses, and of their puper, Which was not long sineo suppressed by tho authorittes for”sts indecont and iufemous fibols, wos not such ns to eccura any crodecs for the story; but subsquently it came before tho public, directly from Mr. Honry O. DBowou, A prominont momber of Plymouth Church, aund indircotly from M. Tilton, in such a maoner that tho public at onco took sides regarding tho scandal, Mean- while Mr., Tilton voluntarly savered his connces tion with Plymouth Church, that organization neithor making auy protest sgaiust it nor calling him to account for it, but silently acquicscing in it. Tho slander sproad, and grow as it sproad, and soon passed tho limits of Plymouth Church and the Congregational douomination, and be- come common talk all over tho country. Then followed the famous. tripattite agreement. botwoon Moseva. Doocher, Bowen, and Tilton, by which overything was to bo mutually forgiven and forgottan, Complate and promising s the partnorsbip wag, it was formed too late. Tho atory waa in evory one’s mouth, snd had assumed dimensions whicl wero formidablo, and bogau to sorlously injure not only Plymouth Church, but othor Congregational churches, Tho protest at first cumo in & friondly spitit of advics, but it wag unhoeded, Plymouth Church firmly, and oven deflnutly, refused to rocognize the chinrgos, and virtunlly fuformed tho romoustrating churches that thov could mind their own busi- noss. This action suporinduced tho calling of tho Congrogational Council st tho Instazco of tho Reve, Storrs sud Budington, of Now York. Ostonsibly tho object of this Council was to de- termino what constituted the conditions of mem- bership in tho Oburoh, tho modus operardi of tormivating that momborship, and somoe minor points of dikciplive, but in reale ity this slandor wos the impalling cause, and it colored all the procosdings of tho Council. ‘tho finding of this Council, a8 our rondors will romombor, was that there had boen technical lnclies on tho part of Plymouth Charel, which was warned not to repeat the offorso. Although tho chargos did not figure in the vordiet, it is impossiblo to dount, frém its gonoral tesor, that the Counell expected Plymouth Church would invostigate and defi- nitely sottle them, Binco that time, bowaver, Plymouth Church hes taken no stepain the mattar. Meanwhilo, the Rov. Leonard Bacon, who drew up tho report of the Council, through tho columns of the Independent has mado o morios of florco attacke upon Mr. Tilton, which havo baon all tho moro forcible becauso Mr. Bacon has boen o firm boliover in Mr. Deochor's inuocenco, Tueso succossive attacks at Inst placed Mr. Tilton in euch a despieable voeition that he walved ko privileges of non-mombership in Plymouth Cburch, snd offered to np- pear before the Examining Commitioo for trisl upon tho charge of slandaring Mr. Beochor. Mr. Tilton's lottor was mot bronght bofore tho churck at all, but at a private moete ing of the leaders they poremptorily declined tho offer. Thon Mr, Tilton nidde public the charges, sad fllod & copy with the Rev. Loonard Bacon, tho Moderator of the Coun- cil. The invostigation now must come. Tho charges must be enswored, or Mr, Doecher must esuffer; and, if Plymouth Church doos not investigate it, undoubtedly the ‘Congrogational Unloa will take action, Doplor- ablo as tho caso 18, {tfa for tho best intorosta of M.

This elevator Dad the poculfarity of passing upand down withe in o epirsl stairway, from which it was ap- proached st each landing. In fact, the advor- tisomont s go framed that the spiral stairway wod mado an cesontinl part of the elevator which alono would bo adopted. “The Mesrre.

The world expeets it. The world expocts that Franco shell, 88 soon ss propared,— 1f & war ia not forced upon her sooner by Gor- many,—doclaro war sgeinst Gormany.

Parlisments, Ministors, pumphlotoors, journal- {nty, prenchors, have told hor sho must fight Gormany ngsin. Tho opinion, and gossip, sud talk of the world leave those good Fronchmon 1o slternative but to go to war, A quostion of groat intorest at the pros- ont time is that or Bolgisn noutrality, That, so far 08 Belgium itsolt 18 concornod, it will not violito its moutral poliey, is con- codod on all hauds. But it s thought that ite noutrality may bo violated; that Franco may ondeavor to rench hor oneniy over Bolgium. Tha Gormans thomsolves beliovo in the possi- bility of France's ondoavoring tomove hor txoops over Bolginm to the Rhino; that thoy might ao- complish this with %o much celority that Bel- gium could offor no rosistance. Eugland and Gormauy monifost somo suxioty, thoroforo, that the neutrality of Bolgium should be placed _boyond & peradventure, The French, on the othor hand, well aware of the advantageous po- sition of Bolgium, are afrald that Gormany nas dosigna on Dolglum snd Holleud. Ime partial obgervors, howover, beliove that thero is much mora of a desiro on tho part of France than of Gormany to disregard the neutral atti- tuds of Belgiuw, Tho most critical aubject, howover, according to tho Beslin correspondont of the New Yok Tribune, 18 that of Luxemburg, the fortross of which was dismantled and tho placo itsolf put under the guarautoe of the Great Powors in 1867, It is surmised that initead of imprisoning tho Catholic Bishops and priests—thera aro throo Catuolic Bishops and ovor a bundred of the infe- rior clergy now In prison—it witl bo found shortly mora convoniout to banish them, Onco han- ishod, it is thought thay will settle as nesr as possiblo to Gormany,—~probably at Luxembury, ‘whore the inhabitants love tho Catholic Church and hato Germany, Hero thoy will write pam- phlots against Germany to flood Europe with, aud whioh it will be no eagy matter to kecp out of Germany itself. Should Germany try to dice tato to Luxemburg how it ahsll treat the ban- ished Catholio clorgy, Franco will como forward to defend ber and clam tho allianco of tho other Great Powers,—Englaud, Austris, aud Russia, Matters in othor diroglions aro, even mnow, boginnug to got entangled. It ia roportod thak there is 2 difforence botweon Bismarck and the King of Davaria. Should this be so, it will con- sldorably weaken the power of the Empire, aupoclally if tho Buvariena should side with their King, which thoy would be very apt to do, ROWAN EPISCOPALIANISH. ThoRov.
