Chicago is houored by (he presenco in Inrge numbers of gentlemen nnd ladies iu at- lendance upon thie sixty-ninth annual session of the American Board of Foreign Missions of the Congregational Church, which began yosterday, Tho first day's proceedings of this distinguished Lody of Christinn men will bo found of peculinr intorest as showing the scope and character of the great work under the management of the Nonrd, e ——— At tho mecting yesterdny of the mtock- hiolders of tho reorgunized Runk of California o full Board of Prustees was eleeted, inclad. ing Senntor Suanox, 1), O, Miurs, and other solid men of Colifornis, It ia understood that Mr. Mris will be made Tresident, and thero is no longer auy doult that depositors will bo paid in full nud that stockliolders will relizo from the wssets from §1,000,000 to §2,000,000. There is a chonce that Bizw Kiva will yet be vindicated—not by a disagreement of tho 1, A, F. and A, M.~ A regular communication will e hield at Orfental Hall, Work on the M. M, De- Grand Jury of the United States Court dur- ing its sessions, beginning with to-day, and to boe subsequently tried upon indict- ments returned by that body, positive is nlleged to have been acewnulated Ly the agents and detectivea omployed by the Treasury Department to Investigate the operations of the Whisky-Ring, and there is littlo room for doubt that the number of con- victions will tally closely with the number of prosecutions. In tho first of the whisky- fraud coses recently tried at St. Joseph, Mo., the prosccution was completely successful, and, ns tho nnture of the frauds and the charactor of the cvidonce are substantinlly tho samo in all the cascs, a similar result is regarded ns certain in Chicago. POLITICAL PROHIBITION AGAIN, The Methodist Episcopal Church of TNi- nois is now holding & Conferenco at Spring- Tield, and some zealous brother hay introdueed to the body the inevitable Constable ns o woral refornier. The Committee on Temperance edvise the Conferonco to take jurisdiction of the tem- perance question; to decide, exr eathedra, that drinking, tratlicking, and licensing the sale of stimulating beverages sro opposed to human inferests aud duties; are contrary to tha tenchings of the Bible (7); are eriminal, and should be punished nccordingly, Upon this dogmatic definition, the Committee ad- vise tho Conferenco to declaro that it is the duly of legislative bodies to prohibit the sale and traflic in stimulants by adequate laws and ponnlties, and that all temperance reforms should have for their object the utter prohi- bition aud extinction of the liquor trafic, This is but a repetition of what has been expladed wherever and whenover an attempt has been made to put it into practice. Tho repetition of this appenl to the law and the Constablo in o matter of worals is, no matter how intended, a confossion of the wenkuess nnd impotenco of the religious influcnco of tho Church. It will be noticed that in nll theso enses tho object of attack is tho scller of intoxienting liquor, s if ho alono were the guilty party. The salo of liquor depends ox- clusively upon the demand for it. Whero there is no demand there will be no liguor sold or manufuctured, and in cxact propor. tion to the demand it will bo sold. The quan- tity mado aud sold depends upon the quantity called for by those who ‘want it. It would Le far more logical to begin with the consum- erag, In fact it is illagical and absurd not to begin with themn, Tlere is not a saloon in the State that would not close instantly npon the withdrawal of its custom. ers; and o liko act wounld result in the nbandonment of the manufacture. It has Leen Lut o few yoars since there wero hundreds of factories engaged in the manu. facture of women's hoop.skirts, After awhile the women abaudoned the use of tho garment, the factories closed, and the Iabor and enpitel employed wero transferred to some other occupation, 8o with tho sale and manufacture of spirits. Both would cengo if thero were mo demand for them. The only actual progress evor made in tho wny of promoting temperanco has been in persuading men to abandou the ute of liguor; oud there can be no serious arrest of its sulo or manufacture until tho nunber of con- sumers are reduced by their own voluntary act. The attempt to prokibit - the sale, without any corresponding attompt to restrain or re- form tho appetito of the vast mnsses of peo- ple who purchase and consume, has of ne. cessity always proved n failure, aud must al- ways continto to bo a failure, The attempt to admiuister the law against sellers, throogh Evi- dence of the frands the most complete ond total nlatinence wonld cease to be excep- tionnl, and lquor-selling would no longer be a luerative business. AN INFLATIONIST LIITL. Day after day wo are told that these are the linrdeat of hard timen; that trade, commerco, and industry pre nt n standstill; that the honest workingman has heen foreed to trans- form himself into o tramp; that wages, profs its, and production nro decvensing togather ; and that the one remedy for this frightful atato of nffairs is the issue of more currenicy. "This remedy wouid be worsothan the discase, oven if tun latter wero all that an inflationist's faney paints it, Tut the storics which we have summarized here are libels upon the cowmmnnity, 'They deseribe a con- dition of wreteheduess which daes not exist, There are, unfortunately, o number of men ont of employment, but there has not Loen a day within fifty yenrs when this was not the case. The number of the unemplayed varies from renson to aensom. It is now large, Lut still much smaller than mest people, deluded by theso partisan reports, suppose, Suffer. ing awong all elasses is tho inovitabla resnlt of n commercinl crisis, No menns within the reach of men, singly or as a nation, can pre- ventit. Ono of the most polent causes of the crash of 1873 was a fluctuating, that is, nn intlnted, curvency. Inflation thus caused the woes that inflation is now enlled upon to cure, It cannot be denied that many more men are now cmployed than found work innnedintely after the panie. And overy dny sees more employed. We seo nothing in the condition of inbor at the pres- ent woment which calls for inflation. We see, on the contrary, labor adding to its cred. its in the savings-banks, labor building itself honzes, Inbor sharing in the general improve. ment of the condition of the community. ‘This fmprovement is necessarily slow, but it ia sure, If wo study the condition of capi- tul, we find it infinitely Detter than it was fwo years or ouc year ago. Theso tedions months have been spent in settling debts, in collecting accounts, in bringing business back to o safe condition.

The demand for atraction of the Kl-ton guns for ita war vee. wels, Theso wmonaterd will be worl:ed by the application of Lydmulic power. Tt was first tested npon the 22.on guns of two monitors built for the Brazilian Gosernment at Havre, As it wotksd wuecessfully with these guns, it was argned that Dy incrensing the fiza of the eylindhr aud pistons it could bo applied to guns of any size, and, upon practical test, it was foundl lo be true. Not only are the turrets rotaled by hydraulic power, but the gunis actunlly loaded, and, after tho shot is in the gun, is rammed home by a hydraulic rammer, nad this ramnter is provided with a little button-valso which, on striking the end of the Lore when sponging, throws ont n strong fel of water, which wou'l extinguish any sparks that may remaiv,. Hy- druhie power rlxo dinnges the guns to ditfer- ent wteps aud opplies a veeofl cheek, The Times sums up the hydreslic advantages ns follows ¢ *1, Great simplifieation of the np- paratns necessnry for mounting mnd working heavy guns 3 2, grest economy of men and space, und simplifieation of drill ; 3, power ineapnble of fatigne and excitement, and un- affected by movemant of the ship ; 4, indif- ferenco in respect to woight of gun aud pro- Jectile—for it in as easy on the principle of Ladranlics to denl with 100-tou gung as with 10-tan guns.” The futention of England is apparent, She will not only protect her own consts, but will also have a clasa of ships which can anchor off graat sonports and reduce thom to auhes without being in resch of nnything that can be brought to benr against them. Suppose, for instance, that wo were at war with En. gland, and that o flect of these vessels should suchor three or fonr miles off {he Battery. They not only could sink all the eraft in New York Harbor, but destroy half of New York and all Brooklyn nt their own plensure. With such armaments ns these, guns throwing a ton of iron, propelled by %00 pounds af pow. der at overy discharge, nothing could with- stand their forco nml fury. One shot would scatttor denth and destruction for o long dis- tance aronud. A BPECIMEN OF IGNORANCE, The profound ignorauce which marks the slatements and rossoning of tho Chicago Ditutionist haw attrcled tho attontion aud olicited oxpressions of surpriso aud contompt from the presy of all parties in the country. As a specimon wo quoto the following from o rocent issue: The attempt to iring ahout an srbitrars o forced reaumnption of spacie fayments drove tho Demoztatic party from power in Now York in 17 and snheequent years, zud eloctad HamuoX President tn 19401 bt & genors! resumption of specte aymients was uot resched until 18433, after there hal beon su incresae o tho currency sl over tho cauniry, sud a beginuing thers- Ly of a rotura to prosperity. The punic in 1837 was the result of an its stock drives engines which must be fod with coal; keeps in motion mnchinery that must be cared for and repaired ; makes traing of Iaden cararollintoandoutof thigeity; stim- ulates the production of the great ngricultural and animal staples,—tho wheat, cotton, wool, leather, and beef which feed and clotho the toiling operatives; and, in a word, gives o powerful impulse to the whole machinery of production aud exchnango. No great business can thrivo unless many othors thrive with it. And thero in not a great business in Chicago to-day which is not thriving, ‘I'he ding-dong of disaster, general misery, universal want, is a positive iujury to tho community, It unsettles confidonce, and so leads wen to hoard thoir wealth instead of using it productively ns capital, It is o libel, and resembles most libels in boing untrue and uttered for sinister purposes, The spec- ulator who is londed down with unsilable property thinks Le can get rid of it and his dobts if the greonback is watored down to 50 centa on the dollar, It is this, and only this, which mnkos him affect deep compassion for tho workingman. e says he wants intln- tion for the sako of the paor. Ia really wants it for himself, And ho hopes, by lying to the community and libeling it, to persunde it to ennble Lim to Jegnlly cheat his creditors snd profit by the ruin of his countrymen, HE, VAL GUNS, The couflict between armor and artillery bas progressed so rapidly in England as to fairly settle the point that no armor cen be constructed imporvious to artillery. ‘'The London Zimes of Sept. 18 contains o four- column description of the tests of soms of tho monstor guns recently constructed for the Devaatation, Inflexible, and Thunderer, which furnishes some facts bearing upon this auperiority of artillery to armor. On the 17th, trisls were mado with the 81-ton guns constructed for the Inflexible. Theso guna nro of wrought iron, consisting of arifled {uner tuba of steel, surrounded with fine coils of iron so arranged a8 to overlsp and under- lio, thus rondering the structure as homo- goncous as possible. Tho bore is 24 foot in length, with a primary calibro of 14} inches, und rifled with 11 grooves of tho Woolwich pattern. In testing theso monsters, the firing point nsed wan & benk of sand about 60 ft. thick, with 76 ft. backing of earth and sbout 200 ft. from the butt. Bix rounds were fired ns followa: Tho first, with a powder charge of 170 1bs. and a flat-hended projectile welghing 1,268 Ilus, plercing tho bank o distance of 45 ft. ; tho sccond, with a charge of 190 Ibs. and o projectile of 1,269 Ibs,, penetrating 40 ft.; tha third, with a charge of 2101bs. and a projeetile of 1,238 1bs., 40£t. ; the fourth, with o chargo of 220 lba. and a projectile of 1,254 1ba,, 86 £t, ; tho fifth, with achargo of 230 )bs, and a projectile of 1,260 1ba., 43 ft. ; thesixth nand last, with s chargo of 240 1bs, and a pro- jeetile of 1,238 1bw., 47 ft. So satisfactory was the trial that the Superintendent of the Royal Gun Faotory expressed lis belief that it would not bo long bofore the English war vossels would Lave n 1G0-ton gun, firing a 1-ton sbot, and making n fssure at one mile range equal to that made by the prow of the Iron Duke iu tho Vanguard, which lntter ves- el wag recently sunk by collivion on the En- glish const. But evon these guns, monstrous i they seom, are small as compared with somo now iu process of manufacture for the Tiglian Government in the factory ot Sir WiLLiam AnssTroNo, which have a calibro of 18 inches, and are capable of carrying & shot weighing 2,000 pounds with a charge of #00 pounds ! ‘hese guns are intended, not for veasel armament, but for coast defensc, Nuples, Venice, Genon, Leghorn, and other Itulinn seaport towns, are now utterly at tho wercy of Franco or any other enemy which nwy attack them, Theso guus, however, it properly handled, will vender thew fmpervi- ous to any attack from the sen, Hithiorto It kina bean woll kuown that thera I no limit of moechanleal ingenuity in pro- ducing guns of any sizo which will ba effect- ive, but it bins beon considered impractical to maka them of colossal size, owing to the im. possibility of handling them by wanual la. bor. 'Lhis diffculty weems, however, to have been overcom, and it is for this reason that the Euglish Governmont has ordered tho con- enormously-inilated currency, ereating an ex- pansion of eredit by which spoculntion was promoted to an extont that hins hardly over been oqualed since then. The Government nover suspended payment in specio then, nor antil the greenbacks were mada legal-tonder, Tho suspension of specie payments in 1837 wns by the 8tate banks, a large portion of which woro mere shinpleastor shops which closed forover. Trom 1837 down, the Gov- crnment paid all its dominnds in coin or its equivalent. The Whigs, or n portion of thom, at ono time proposed that tho Government slhould receivo in payment of publio Ixnds the noter of apecie-paying danks, but oven that wns voted down, becauso it was o depryturo from the Anifornmt eurrency of the Govern- ment. 'Tho Whigs nover proposed that the Governmont should reccive the notes of any Dank that wero not redeemnble in specio on demand. There was no question then, nor hefora the olection of 1810, of foreing a re- sumption of rpecio payment, bocause specio was tho cxelusivo Iegal-tender eurrency of the Government, and Congress had no nuthority to compel State banlks to rosume the redemption of their notes, The Whig party had for its distinctive mensures in 1840 tho charter of a National Bank, a tariff **to protect American indushry,” and national expenditures for rivers and har- bors and other internal improvements, Upon the succoss of that party in 1810, n specinl session of Congross wns ealled, which passed a protective tariff act and chartored a National Bank, The Iatter nct was vetoed by Jouy Trren and never became a lnw, The Whig Government continued, as its predeces- sors haul done, to transact nll national busi- nean in specle. Exceptinregardio a National Dank, which was to issua curronoy to tnke the place of the Stato banks, and whose notes woro to Lo redeemable in specie on demand, thoro was no qguestion of specio resumption, or inflation, or contraction, be- fore the people in the Presidential clection of 1840, INTERNATIONAL LAW, The Association for tho Reforin and Codi- fioation of the Law of Nations, which at- tracted universal attention in Europo during its seanion at Tho Haguo last month, is the reault of American offort. In Muy, 1873, the American International Code Committes in- vited European jurists to meet its represent- atives ot Drussols in October. 'The meoting was held, and tho presont Association was formed. Its third aunual session has just boen Leld at The Hague. Wo have already summarized tho work done, but the mails bring further partionlars, Austrin, Belglum, Denmark, France, Germany, England, Italy, Russia, Spain, Bweden, Holland, and the Unit. ed States wero represonted. Internntionnl arbitration waa strongly indorsed, though Dr. Bruntscucr, of Heidelberg, the legal ud- visor of Brauanck, took sirong ground ngainst national disarmament, which is the necessary fororunner of international arbitra- tion, and declared that a large army waos not only necessary but setunlly useful; that the only limit to a national army should be ¢ physical possibility"; and that disarming “wunld only result in o loss of national power and usefulness.” Trunrecnrt is ono of the greatest publicists of the world and Bisnasok ono of the grentest statcamen. When the former spenks in this way and iy undenstood paired, aund five timos it Lne come back broken, owing to the earclessness of tho put.- lie carrior. and yot this Dritish lamb says to e Times: T only hope, sir, that you will pubiish this, in order that thoso through whose negligence these five sucens. wive breaknges havo ocourred may sce it and feel pshinmed of themselves,” Suppose the lawn-wower hnd belongad to au Ameriean ! Ttefore that Inwn.mower had como back the third time, he would have sued the raflrond for damages, blown np the wholo compauy individunlly, had n bill introduced in his Legirinturo ngainst careless lnwn-mower care viers, and organized a politieal Anti-Lawn- Mowaors’ Breakage party. HJALOON-BUFFRACE. Tho efficinl advestisements show that there are 557 polling-places in New York City, It isnsigmitieant faet that searcely a single grog- shop hing heen chowen for one of them, The list containg one ‘stors,” one ‘‘oftive,” one *club.room,” one **oyster-hoase,” and fivo ** gracories.” AN of theso may be aatoons, but if thoy nre, thero are 518 places which aro not.

A great aniny necessarily leads to great wars, A number of papers were read on private international Iaw, and tho scssion ended with banquets and receptions galore, One of the receptions was ‘held in the Twecdo Kamer, which must have been vory gratifying to Mr. Twizn's attorney and the Associstion’s Vice- Prosident, Davip Duneey Freen, The (rue Briton is a patient and long-sui- fering animal.

The vicinity of aliguor-saloon is the warst possible place to frequent on eclection day. If there is any disturbaneo, any riot, anywhere, it is suro to be there. The men who reccive and count tho votes aro apt to be inflamed with whisky, and nre freely plied with it by eandidates and their ¢ friends.” Their fuddled brains often cannot reckon thoe voten aright, even when they honestly wish to do so. The highest privilege and the highest duty of an American citizen is fo vote. He should not be farced {o go to n low resort in order to dischurge this duly and exorciso this .right. "I'he Board of County Uommissioners can fix the polling-places wherover thoy wish to do 4o, We trust they will toke a hint from the reform that has beon so successfully earried onut in Now York, and place no polling-booth for tho coming election in a snloon.
