Dr. Lanahan’s Joke—Dr. Power's Hetort in Kind—About the a bellites—Their Church in W = ington. The other day Rev. Dr. the pastor of Foundry M. E. Church, of which Mrs, Hayes isa member and the President an attendant remarked to Rev. F. D. Power, the pastor of the Campbellite church, of which denomination Gen. Garfield 1s a communicant, “Dr., when Gen. Garfield is elected, you have to en- large your church.” Dr. Power retorted, no, Dr., your 001 ition will follow to church, and they will enlarge it.” Dr. Lanahan took the joke good naturedly. ‘The denomination known as Campbellites, or “The Disciples of Christ,” of which the Presl- dent elect 7 @ communicant, is quite small in the Disyrict in os pario with other denomi- nations, having but one church building in the city. This 1s located on Vermont avenue, be- tween N and O streets northwest. This build- ing isa plain, unpretending frame structure. Iu size and situation as compared with the Foundry church, where President Hayes wor- ships, 1t may be characterized, New York fash- ion, as “the little church round the corner,” START OF THE CHURCH HERE. The Campbellite faith has been preached in Washington for some thirty years now. The iirst_ services were held in private houses. About 1852 or ’3, the little band met at the old Medical College, corner of 10th and E streets, old Temperance Hall, (now Marini’s.) and Cor- Coran’s original Art Building, on H street, be- tween 13th and 14th, and about 135s tuey went to the City Hall, and remataed there—except for a short time—wntil the summer of 1599. Among the early members were R. G. Camp- bell, for mapy years a clerk in the Land office; H. H. Hazzard, a well known tailor; George E. ‘Mpgie, of Indiana, father of Mr. A. Tilugle, of the Treasury department, (all of wioin have deceased,) and Mr, Benj. Samuy, a well known farmer, residing im the county north or the city. The meetings gradualy grew in interest, the elders generally ofictating. in isev Elder D. P. Heuderson, of Kentucky, officiated for several months as the pastor, and the result was a considerable accession to the pembership. Among those who joined were H. C. Stier, the superintendent of the Sunday school for some years past, C, W. elton, Goo, W. Pratt, H. U. Hazzard, jr., Harvey Hazzard, '. H. Hazzard and C E. Holmes, N. J. Hiltman united with the congregation about this time; and among the attendants were Juige Jere Black and family,“of Pennsylvania: Co!. Ward H. Lamon and wife, aud Mr. W.S. Roose and Jamily, In 1sé7 there was a formal organtza- ton of the Congregation with Benj. Summy, H. B. Sherman aud Ff. M. Bradley, elders, and J. H. Robinson, W. W. Dungan, N. J. Hillman, Cc. W. Shelton and H. C. Steir, deacons. Elder H. T. Anderson, of Harrodsburg, Ky., came here in Mareh, 1568, and remained for one year, until March, 1569. A movement wasmade to buiid or buy a church, and the building orlginally erected by the Methodist: Churcn South, on M street, between 9th and 10th, being for sale, was purchased in 1569, and in the summer of that year they took possession of the building. In September and October of 1569 Kev. J. Z. Taylor, of Indiana, occupied the pulpit, and the result of bis _ministraitons was a gain of 30 or 40 members, Mr. W. W. Dungan and his family, having removed from Baltimore, united with them, as also J. H. Robinson (since deceased), E, W. Knowles and others. GENERAL GARFIELD hed attended the services when they were heli at the City Hall, and afterwards at the M street church, sometimes speaking at the meetings, but always from the floor. He also delivered several lectures in the church. Rev. 0. A. Bar- tholomew, of Philadelphia, became the pastor on Dec. ist, 1869, and remained four years. Du- ring his ministration a fund of 7,000 was raised, priucipally {0 the west, and $500 came trom Hon. R. M. Bishop (who has since been governor of Obto) to ald in purchasing a permanent site for a church edifice. While on M street a Sunday school was organized, and it has gradually grown since, now numbering about 300 scholars and teachers. The congre gation being unable to obtain a litle for tue M Street properiy, they finally purchased ta> present site, fronting $0 feet on Vermont aye- nue, and they have it all paid for. Rev. Mr. Bertholomew left in 1573, and for two years the pulpit. was supplied by such ‘ministers 4s Uhey could find. Among others who preached here during this period were President Pendleton. “ot “ Bethany Cotlege, President Hinsman, of Hiram College, Onto, and Rev. J.S. Lamar, of Augusta, Ga.’ Rev. Mr. Power took charge in 1875, and since then the membership has steadily grown to about 350. Rey. W. H. Schell, of this caurch, is engaged in missionary work at Rockville, Md., and vicinity, ‘The echureh amission school on Capitol Hill (Weshingfon Hall.) Attached to the church is a sewing society, a womans’ mlsstonary ¢ ciety, a Sunday school missionary soclety “Oh, my and several associations of young peo- ple. The government of the church is now committed to the pastor e and a board of eiders—Messrs. H. C. Stier, N. J. Hillman, B. F. Moore and E. W. Knowles, com- posing the present board. The church edifice which, as already stated, is a plain, unpretend- ing frame, painted drab, stands in the center ot the lot, anid ts about 40 by 60 feet, with a gallery at the east end, and it will seat about 400. Con- eregational singing, led by Mr. James T. Hall, clerk of the Treasury, takes the place of a choir. ‘The congregation have had under consideration tbe subject of erecting a much MORE COMMODIOUS EDIFICE, and hope through their friends in the west and otuer parts of the country to raise for this pur- pose during the coming winter and spring 450,000. Since Gen. Garfleld’s connection with this denomination began to be generally kaown, the membership of the czurch has been beset by inquiries as to their creed, &c., and to answer their Rorreg Many copies of a pamphlet entitled “Our Position,” py Rev. I. Errett, editor ot the Giristian Standard, have been distrib- uted. Kev. F. D. Power, the present pastor, is about thirty years of age, a thoroughly educated minister, and was @ professor in Bethany col- lege, Bethany, W. Va., when called to the pas- torate. He is able, eloquent and brilliant—one of the finest pulpit orators in thiscity. He is universally beloved by his people and has been unanimously elected pastor for five successive years.

THE FOUNDER OF THE CAMPBELLITES. Alexamder Campbell, the founder of the de- nomination known variously as “Campbellites,’ “Disciples of Christ,” “The Church of Christ,’ was bora in county Antrim, Ireland, in June, 1786, died at Bethany, West Virginia, March 4, 1866, He was educated at the University of Gl and came to this country in 1809. He lasgow took up his residence in Washington county, Pennsylvania, near Bethany, in western Vir- ginia, which afterwards bécame his home. For a time he was pastor of a Presbyterian church, from which denomination he soon separated on the ground that the Bible should be the sole € of the chureh. isl0 he and lis father, a Presbyterian clergy- man), organized a new ety at Brush Run, Pennsylvania. In is12 he became convinced that immersion was the only mode of baptism, and he and his congregation were immersed. They united with a Baptist asso- clation, but still protested against all human creeds as a bond of union in the chyrches. He and his followers were excluded fsom fellow- ship with the Baptist churches, and 1a 1527 began to form a separate organization which extended in the states of Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky. In 1864 they Mumbered 359,000 members and have now nearly doable that number. Mr. Campbell was 4 prolific writer, and his pen was busy through a series of years in the authorship of books, and in the publica- Ucn of achureh organ he started in 1523. In Ist) he founded Bethany college, of which he co.tinued to be president to the close of his He was also engaged in several dis- cussions, one of which with Robert Owen, in 15¢8, on “The Trata of Christianity,’ ¢staviished his reputation as the ablest contro- versialist of his ime. Mrs. Frances Trollope (mother of the English novelist), who was pre- Sent at this discussion, speaks tn her “Domestic Manbers of the Americans” of the remarkable ab lity displayed by Mr. Campbeil on that occa- sion, A. W. Campbell, editor of the Wheeling Twenigencer, 18 & nephew of Alexander Camp: bell. Though born on slave soil, he took issue With his uncle upon the slavery question. The latter maintained that the institution of slavery Was eanctioned, or at least tolerated, in the Eible, and that therefore the relation of a holder of slaves should not be made a test question for canmunion in the church. ‘The Next House of Representatives. THE REPUBLICANS HAVE A SMALL MAJORITY OVER ALL. From the latest returns it now looks as if the next House of Representatives will be puiit- ically divided as follows: Rep, Dem. STATES. Rep, Dem.

It is not probable this calculation will be reduced. Even if the greenbackers hold the balance of ade the chances are that three of them will act with the republicans. Garfield and the National Game. A GARFIELD BASE BALL BOOM IN ORDER. Base ball play ers and the lovers of the sport ought to organize unto themselves a private boom on account of Gen. Garfield's election. He isone of them. He never misses a game when one is within reach. During that portion of the session of Congress when the base baller 1s base balling, Gen. Garfield never failed to Tee in an appearance at the National grounds. He 1s generally there sometime before the game iscailed. When the duties of an afternoon ses3ion necessarily require his presence in the Hoi he 1s sometimes late on the grounds, but never falls to be in at the finish. Few people take the interest in the game that he does or follows itas closely. Sir Edward Thornton is a pretty sure spectator, but he stays in the outfield tn carriage. Gen. Garfleld gets ‘ht down in the front row of seats of the stand. He keeps the score himself and watches every play as intently as if he had thousands of dollars on thegame. Hecheers every neat play and pe #8 excited as anybody. After the game e walks down to hie residence on I street. Mr. T. H. O.

Telegrams to The Star. LATEST ELECTION NEWS. CALIFORNIA’S CLOSE VOTE. THE NEW YORK MUDDLE, GEN. GARFIELD’S CABINET. BARNU™M'S LAST EFFORT. The Gossip About the Count—Very Generally Condemned. [Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.) Nw York, Nov. 6.—The democratic leaders got together last night at Tammany Hall, aud had an exciting time, which has furnished all the political gossip of to-day. All the democrats you meet down town stigmatize the talk about counting Garfield out of the electoral vote ot New York state as silly in the extreme. Public sentiment here on that point is so untversaliy op- posed to opening up the question that those who Want to do it will nodoubt be forced to abandon the attempt. Business men especially, in all branches, not only oppose the proposition, vut regret that it has even been talked of, because it has a tendency to unsettla trade. It must be sald to Joan Keily’s credit that he does not ad- Vise it in his ches. There is to be conside able of a contest for the Senate in New Jersey. Ex-Senator Dorsey say3 that General Se Camden, who 18 opposing Robe known to him as the agent of the Railroad Company, and charges th company by instructing its employss lo vote for Hancock and for Ludlow (the democratic governor-elect), changed 4.000 votes and gave The state away. ror that reason le says Gen. Sewall ought not to expect a reward from the republican party after doing it all the damagy he could. Gen. Sewail ts an officer under the Pennsylvania road and a state senator. Mr. Dorsey says there is no doubt, whatever, that Robeson will be elected. MR. GARFIELD’S What New York Wants—Two Can- didates—Ire Conkiing’s Choice. [Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.) New York, Nov. 6.—AS a straw showing the current of thought ataong our republican poll- licians here, I may say, upon pretty good authority, that there are but two applicants for laces in the Garfield Cabinet from New York— evi P. Morton and Thos. C. Platt. It is deemed the proper thing to press these two men, the one for his excellent work in securing subserip. tions to the fund, the other for his strong party work in the state. It is known to be Sena ter Conkling’s disposition to have Piatt io the Cabinet and Morton in_ the Senate. It is believec certain that New York will have amember of the Cabinet, and that Senator Conkling will name the man. It is known also that Mr. Platt would rather be Postmaster Gen- eral than anything else, There is another dis- Position shown here in regard to the office or Secretary of Stat», If Mr. Morton had been pressed he would have preferred that office; but as he prefers to go to the Senate, and Piatt pre- ters the P. M. Generalship, the disposition 1s to urge some New England man for the Secretary- ship of State. There are pleaty of men in New England who would be efficient, and do credit- able work in that office, Mr. Dorsey says that Jay Hubbell and E1- ward McPherson have both been of great use to the national committee during the campaign: Ubat McPherson was of great good in selecting congressional districts that looked close, and fghung for them, collecting subscriptions from the Mg cig paying col onal cam- paign bills, and that, besides this, they sent Ioney to the national committee. Mr. McPher- son will be pressed for the position of clerk of the House. WHAT MAYOR-ELECT GRACE SAYS. No Creed—No Sect—Buta Mayor ef all the People, Etc. [Special Dispatch to The Eoening Star. New York, Nov, 6,—William R. Grace, mayor- elect, this afternoon said: “I am proud of my Feligion,” and outlined his policy, He says, in the matter of appointments: “I reiterate the statement that I have made no pledges to any man in any way, and that I propose to be mayor of New York, nothing less. mayor of a faction, nor even the mayor of a party, but shail do my best to be the Tmayor of the people. My majority was smull enough to make me believe that it was really the majority of personal friends and of unpre judiced republicans whose votes were the an- ‘Swer to the unwarranted personal attacks made onme. I was asked for pledges from Irving Hail, and refused to make them, replyiog that if I were to be mayor I should be untrammeled. | I was asked to pledge nominate Mr. Kelly, and I The only concession I ‘have made at all if that be an admission, was in the words, | think the people cf New York Mr. Keily as having made an excellent comptroller; my nomination was a matter of indifference, and my election was so to ajcertain extent. My wife and famiiy would have been glad had I been defeated for the nomination, and I hardly think they would have been sorry had I been defeated at the polls, 80 unwilling are they to see our home life broken up. So Httle have I been boca d to adopt the ordinary methods in politics that Thave eS | dovens of oe sent to personally to meet campaign expenses.
