They were not delivered from the pul- pits of churches wherein sat those who give tone to society. In a majority of cases they were heard in the humbler places of worsbip, and would probably have remained unknown had we not done our part toward spreading the great truths they contained. Not thus should ® pure Christianity be confined. The churches wherein we need the proclamation of true doc- trines are the very ones to which the public are most attracted; for their influence is greatest, and upon them, to a vast extent, depends the spiritual welfare of the people. CongreseA General Congressioun! Election Day—The Sixteenth Ameudment-A Ku Klux Wanted. Monday is what fs known as resolution day fo the House of Representatives—that is, day for the introduction of resolutions and bills, Yesterday the usual number and variety of bills and resolutions were sub- mitted, one of which, and a very important one, was, under a suspension of the rules, rushed through and passed. It was a bill to fix the time for the election of representatives end delegates to Congress in all the States and Territories on the Tuesday after the first Mon- day tn November, 1872, and every second year thereafter. A motion to lay the bill on the table was lost—40 to 1{9—and then, under the yprevious question, the bill was passed—114 to 40—which signifies, as we take it, that the Gemocrats prefer the chances of the present system of different days: for different States. ‘The bill, however, is so palpably in favor of fair and square elections that it cannot fail to be approved by the people, if passed into a law, as we suppose it will be during the pre- sent session, if not before the end of the pre- Bent week. The sixteenth amendment. providing that nelther the United States nor any State shall make any law restricting the right of suffrage ©n account of sex—woman suffrage—was intro- duced by Mr. Julian, of Indiana, and that is the last we shall hear of the subject in the House for a considerable time to come, unless the woman's rights ‘women send down to Wash- ington at once oa strong delegation of their “youngest and handsomest representatives to ‘keep Mr. Julian wide awake, and to impress upon the House their claims to equal political rights with niggers, In the Senate the Georgia bill was again under discussion, and Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, ‘having made some allusions to the terrible Southern Ku Klux Klan, Mr. Saulsbury, of Delaware, said there was one thing he wanted to see before he died, and that wagsa Ku Klux. ‘The wish is natural and reasonable, and if the “‘carpet-baggers” down South, who have so much to tell of the numbers and fearful doings of these Ku Kluxes, cannot oblige the Senator from Delaware by furnishing him a living specimen to look at let them forever hereafter ‘hold their peace concerning the Ku Klux Klan. Meantime, we think it will be safe to pass the Georgia bill, as it this Klan had ceased to bea formidable enemy of law and order and had become a raw head and bloody bones no louger to be feared by the civil authorities, The New Charter—Tho Const Clear, According to our reports from Albany of the doings up there yesterday in reference to the new Charter (the Frear bill) we may look for its passage and its approval by the Gover- nor before the close of thisday. It is to be made the special order to-day in the Sen- ete after the reading of the journal, and it must come up without amendment from the committee on the subject. Nor does it appear that any amendments are expected that will materially change the bill as it stands, On the contrary, there seems to be @ general understanding between demo- ocrats and republicans in favor of the bill as it is, coupled, however, with an understand- ing in the Senate that the Charter shall be ‘accompanied by a bill for the better regulation of our elections. It appears also to be generally understood that if this new Charter shal! prove in its practical operation unsatisfactory and un- popular, the next Legislature will have the power to change it, and that meantime, in the elections for the next Legislature, the people will have an opportunity to pronounce their judgment npon it. Let the bill, therefore, be passed, and let it be tried. It is a good bill for a beginning and a great advance in the right direction. Tns VireiniA TroupLEs.—An effort is being made by Mr. Porter, a Congressional ,aquatter from Virginia, to have some national legislation made for that State by the Recon- struction Committee on account of the Mayor- ality troubles in Richmond. We hope Con- gress will be very chary of going into any such business. The republican party has secured the fifteenth amendment and brought all the States back into the Union very suc- cessfully on the reconstruction platform, and ‘they now have other work todo. They have equeezed all the juice they need out of recon- struction, and there is nothing left of it but ‘the bitter. They can hope to get no more good out of it, and they must leave Virginia and Tennessee alone, as, ere this, they have found they should have left Georgia aione. - ANOTHER Spanish Camparay iv Ccopa.—A new campaiga bas been commenced by the Spaniards against the insurgents in the Central Department. Generals Goyeneche and -Val- maseda are to play prominent parts in the new movement against the Cubans. The cam- ‘paign will be a sbort one, as the sickly season ‘which will soon set in will naturally tend to put a stop to operations in the field. It is the Jast chance, therefore, for a blow before the warm weather comes on, and the Spaniards are evidently determined to avail themmselves of the opportunity. His Houwsss tae Pops wishes to promul- gate a schema at Easter (Schema No. 1), and another schema (Schema No. 2), just after the Easter holiday.

In the House of Commons to-day the considera- tion of the Irisb Land bill was resumed in com. mittee, Mr. Disraeli opposed the amendment proposed by the government extending the Ulster custom over Ireland. He begged the Honse to consider the effect this law would bave on English land, and predicted that agitation and tawlessuess would increase. Mr. Disraeli then submitted an amendment limu. ing the compensation to the retiring tenants to damages for his unexhausted improvements and uu- Onisbea course of husbandry. Mr. Lowe replied to Mr. Disraeli in a speech irrele- vant to the amenement under consideration, He said the bill possibly violated the rules of political economy, but such violations were of daliy occar- rence, Mr. Gathorne Hardy supported Disraeli's amend- ment. Mr. Hardy and Sir Roundell Palmer, who followed him, both urged greater caution than the government had extibdtted so far in tne manage- ment of the measure. The changes proposed were Generally too ill-considered and sweeping. Ms. Fortescue, chief Secretary for Ireland, repelied the charges made against the government. Mr. Clare 8. Reed, member for South Norfolk, de- nounced the bill as revolutionary, Mr. Buxton, member for East Surrey, declared the biil limited rights of property which were now subverted. Mr. Brodrick, Sir Patrick O’Brien and othera fale Jowed, but presented no new arguments. Mr. Gladstone explained that the point of the clause was compensation to tenants, not the scale by which it should be awarded.
