It may ve safely assumed, we think, that no speaiile object ever called forth stich universal and united supplication as tho desire for the Inte Prestdonv’s recovery. Dally prayers were offered in millions of closets and In. thotsands of churches by wll denominations, and In every Christian eoun- try on the face of the globe, pleauing that Garflold’s Ifo might. be spared. ‘The death of the President in the fave of the earnest supplication of the whole Christian world ins naturally oxeiter! some perplusing doubts nbout the eficucy of prayer iu changlux the purposes of the Alinighty as matntained by many honest and pious professors of rellgion, The Rev. Mr, Wishard, of the Fifth Presby- terlan Chureh in this city, preached » ser- mon Sunday on the subject of “Prayer and Sta Answer,” which throwa some ighton this perplexing questlon.- He polnted out that a direct and favorable answer to prayer for 0 specific temporal object cannot fairly be expected. People who pray for tho working of miraglos, for instance, ave dovined to disnppolutinent by the teach- Ing‘of the Scriptures, beenusemiractes ceased with the Savior, wha gaye thom to the pao- ple of Ls time, according to [Lis own decla- Tation, 18 a nanafestation of Is diving mis- ston, If Guitenu inflicted n mortal wound when he shot the late President, 1b was not to be expected that prayer would prevail upon the Ruler of the Universe to reverse the course of nature and restore thamortally- wounded man ta health, ‘The Batlonnilst will maintain that the nature of the wound was determincd from the moment the ball had finished its course, and henve the prayer of mortals could not ehange It, and was con- foquently useless, Dut, on the other hand, the peaple were not aware of the character and effects of the wound; the doctors them: selves were Ignorant of It,as the wntopsy proved, Hence, on a pitrely utilitarian busts, Itimuy be contended that prayer was deslrable ao Jong ns, there was any wncertalie ty. Again, tho skoptie will say that prayer could not have Jutluenced the skill of the attending surgeons and the care’ of the nurses, ‘Tho bellever In praver will deny this, and insist that everything not in tho nature of nimtracio may be obtained by sup plication, ‘'o which the skoptls will reply that the President’s prostration aud death furnished no evidence of such a theory, ‘The Rey, Mr. Wishard contended that the mission of prayer is to. obtaln those things which haye been definitly promised—sueh 3 forgiveness of sing, Ue enlarge the scope somewhut by adding that it ly proper to pray for “our dally bread,” because that petition hos been enjoined by the Savior Himself, and, by a parity of reasoning, for prosperity in business, recovery from alekuess, ant Tur alarm of certaln sonsitive souls in the Eastern newspaper press—Mr. Jolin Kelly among tho number—lest the fund for the benefit of Mrs. Gartield should get to bo too bly Is entirely misplaced. Such matters ay be trusted to regulate thomselves. Con- trioutions have about ceased to como in, which isa certain indication Uhat the people Judge tho provision for the late President's whlow to be snfllelent, ‘Lhe fund will give her, allowing for the premium on the bonds, $900,000 In 4 per cents, which will yleld a revenue of 312,000 annually, Mrs, Garfield Will have also $25,000 from the Insurance on the President’s life, as much mare from the sottllng up of his estate, at least one year’s salary, and a penston of $3,000 annually from the Governmont. ‘The Nation tn its public enpacity is not relieved from the obligation of making some provision tor the President's widow by the private benefae- tlons, ‘The Governinent owes something to its own dignity and self-respect, But it is apparent by thie the that there Is no need for persons in strattened citcumstances or Ittle children to make sacrifices out of thelr savings Jn order to swell the proportions of the find. ‘Tre personal aspects of Col, Bilss’ letter to Gen. Arthur In 1879 concerning the abuses of the New York City machine have a pe- cullar Interest now, ‘The address was very poluted qnd direct, “Tho object of tho Jotter” wasstated lo bo “to urga you to soo to it—and you are now in such n position that a word from you will accomplish t—that the Republican organization, so good in theory, go capable and eflclent In enriler days, reform itself."

Arthur, it 1s not bruited abroad that the latter did *do” his “bost.” If ho did, lis “*best” did not amount to much; for the New York City primaries at the close of last week were characterized by all thelr old abuses, and ground out the usual sot of mis- reptesentatives of public oplulon, We ob- serve, for example, In the Ist ot the chiut | Jelegates elected the names of Pollco-Coin- missioner French, De Witt Clinton Wheeler, + ex-Comuilsslouor-of-Public-Works George M, Van Nort, Charity-Commiasioner “ Jake" Hoss, “Barney” ‘Biglin, “Jack” O'Brien, “Mughy” Gardner, “Jake” Patterson, “Mike” Cregan, “Ald.” Perley, and ex-Assomblyman Vornun, . All these are known a3 component parts of the old- qwuchlne, On the other hand. ien kindred objects, But prayer, he sald, should be framed Ina potential fashion. “God, if it $s best, spare this man!” fs the supplica- ton whieh he belleves the faithful sent up fo Heaven ino bebolf of Garfleld, Mut shall we conclude because Gariteld died that God thought It best he should not Mve? Oro shall it bo assumed that the Lord roquires the prayers of the faithful in order to determine what 1s beat? Or that the Lord will not do what ts best without the supplicattons of tho people? These pre the perplexing questions whiel arise from tho thuory that prayer Is designed tu obtain from the Lord the removal of some finpending disastey or the realization of some cherished hope. ‘The reply whieh Mr. Wishard makes to tho frequent disappoint- ments that come from prayers of that kind is that the Lord’s answers “often como in strange atl wnexpected shaves"; and the reverend gentlemnn deciared {t as his belief that the prayers of this and other nations in Garileld’s case had been heard and would be answered ht some way not yet apparent, 'Tho faet remains, nevortholess, tint the greater proportion of the Christian world prayed for the lute President's recovery, and that tho President dld uot recover, Death ensued elther because the wount was fatal in Isolf or beenusy tho treatment of the ease wns defective. Prayers did not change one or tha othor of these conditions, but nature fook {ts course, Prayer was not efiicient In the purpose to which It was directed in that ense, It is not necessary to'conelude on this necount that prayer may as well be aban- doned. What fs known ns tho ‘eflicacy of prayer” tuyolves a view of personal com- mnigation with the Deity, Are men to pray simply becanse they have some boon to ask of the Lord? Are they to cense pray- {ng beeansa the Lord dues not see fit on every oceasion to reverse Nature's laws In order to gratify thelr desire? So far as the efliency of prayer fs tntentled to mean that earnest supplication will obtain a favorable response to some personal petition, tha faithful should be the first td abandon itnsa theory. Tn that sense the theory not only is not sustalned by’ ex- perlunee, but, if It were, If would serve con- stantly to disarrange tho well-ordered con- dition of the world’s affulrs, and it would be aselfish inducement to professions of falth— which is nota high ideal of religions deva- thon, Prayer hag other alms and purposes thon the Immediate eratifeation of any pate theulnr desire entertained by an Individual, a party, 0 sect, ora nation, Itis aeccret and golem conumunion with a mysterions Power which may bring consolation, if no other re- sult, and which typifies a support all men, no nintter how strong, ike to lean upon, ‘The uluisters aid professors of religion onght to put an end to the controversy by re- fusing to defend the eflcacy of prayer in the Narrow and selfish sense in which it has been attacked by the posltivists and utilitarians, Vrayer has ifs usefulness aside from imme- dinte and practical efleacy, ‘ es AN OLD, FRAUD EXPOSED. ' In ail the tariffs of the United States from the days of Iutilton to Windom there has been 4 provision by which the cost of com- missions and of transportation of the mer- vhandise purelnsed in foreign countries from the pince of purchnse to the place of export are Included tn the dutiable cost of the goods Imported. ‘The invoices sent to the custom- house always Include as part of the cost of the goods the commission pald to ngents and the Inland charges fer transportation, ‘Thus, ifn New York importer ordered allks from Lyons, the agont through whom tho order was sent charged 334 per cent commission, and this commission and the freight on we goods from Lyons to tho polnt of exportation were Inelided In the yalue of the goods.on which the duty of 60 per cent was levied. We find in the Cinelunat! Commercial s statement that, beginning early in tho War and continuing down to a Inte date, this pro- vision of taw has been the pretext or the cover fora most enormous swindle, It ap- pears that this swindle elicited the strongest and most ernest complaints and remon- atrances fram varluus Secretaries of tho Trensury, and tho letter names of these oftl- cors Messrs.
