and Territories. The first distribution was made upon the basis of population. Here- after it is to be made upon the basis of re- sources and wealth, The Pay af of the Treasury is of the opinion that the South will be unable to take much of the remaining cir- culation, and that at least twenty-five millions will remain for distribution among the West- erm States at the close of the present year. Our Religious Press Table. We have received a pampblet containing “Some Facts About Sulphur.” Respectfully referred to our Presbyterian friends, with recommendations to mercy. The first church in New York was built, according to Francis Vincent's ‘‘History of Delaware,” upon the recommendation of a number of roysterers in a tavern in New Amsterdam, now called New York. At & wedding of the daughter of a clergyman, named Everardus Bogardus, it was thought necessary, after the fourth or fifth drink, to take up a donation for the foun- dation of a church edifice. Trinity Church, with its accumulated enormous property, was the result of the fifth imbibation. Perhaps that {s the reason Trinity in our day exhibits such a winking toward holy water, The Jewish Messenger is out this week with ® supplement, in which we find ‘The Charac- ter of Moses” related by the Misses Roths- child. The Rothschilds ought to know some- thing about Mose. The Messenger also gives us a plegsant article about a walk it had on Fifth avenue on a Saturday afternoon, the Jewish Sabbath, and says: — We recognized among the occupants of several carr acquaintances whom we suppose to be Jews. This being the Jewish Sabbath such persons might have left the avenue drive to the exclustve use of pleasure seekers Who do not observe Saturday a8 holy tume. Here is to be seen a desire on the part of a representative of a respectable portion of our religious population to observe a Sabbath. Whatever that Sabbath may be, let it always be one devoted to the glorification of the Most High. The Messenger reminds us of a maxim which, it says, ‘‘is as old as it is truthful”’—to wit, “Koow thy God and then serve Him.” Better serve Him any how. The Golden Age talks about ‘Hacking at Pictures with Penknives,” and gives an article in favor of female sexual merchandise. This is hacking at the most beautiful picture of God's creation with the unapostolic Bowie knives of free love, The Jewish Times discourses on ‘Jews and Judaism,” taking for its text the Odessa out- rage. In this connection the Jewish Times says ‘— While in former days outbursts like those in Rou- Mania and Odessa found approbation, they are now condemned by the voice of enlightened humanity— by the press. It is only meet that we should ex- ‘Press our satisfaction at such liberal and enlight- gned sentiments as are embodied in an editorial of the New York HERALD, tn its tssue of last Sunday, im reference to the Odessa riot, Fair play is the Hrratp doctrine, But don't let fair play crowd a fair thing too far. The Hebrew News is a fresh infusion into our local field of Jewish newspaper literature. At the first blast the Hebrew News may bother the common reader, because its principal arti- cles are printed in Hebrew characters. These, to the ordinary eye, are rather upside down than otherwise; but then comes an article in English letters, which everybody can read and understand, entitled ‘“The Heratp, the Great Sectarian Organ, on Bigotry.” Our newly-born disciple of the press of Moses will prove a novelty in the circle of religious jour- nalism in the metropolis. The Hoangelist, touching upon the subject of ‘‘Western Colleges and Congress," makes the suggestive statement that— The nation’s destiny has already passed to new hands, and the influence of our old colleges and universities, as well as of Fastero usages and habits -of thought, have relatively declined. Western Re- serve College, with its five graduates in Congress, ftukes precedence of the oidest college of New Eng- land, which numbers but three ! Our evangelical contemporary should re- member that colleges dw not make brains. Thea best statesmen in our country have been educated at the colleges of the plough, the printing press, the anvil and the shoemaker's Jast. The East may talk of the graduates of Harvard, Yale, Brown's, and the West bring up its ‘‘Reserve,” but none of these institu- tions of learning ever produced a Washington, @ Franklin, a Roger Sherman, o Jefferson, a Fulton, a Jackson, a Silas Wright, a Professor Morse, nora R. M. Hoe. Colleges are very useful institutions of learning, and they should always be encouraged; but the Ameri- can people should not rely upon them entirely for their solid men and purest patriots. The Independent endeavors to make out a case against Brother Winans, and asks, ‘‘Does it pay to be a traitor?” The argument of the Independent might well be applied to those religious papers that prove traitorous to the principles of Christianity and devote their «columns to the publication of advertisements of a doubtful morality for the sake of filthy lucre. To quote the Independent's own lan- guage in another connection: — We wish we could set tn more stirring and pungent phrase the hideousness of toi sort of pe it and the blight which it spreads all aroun The Observer, with extraordinary liberality for a Presbyterian organ, takes up the case of ithe Rev. Mr. Cheney, of Chicago, and that of Mr. George H. Stuart, of Philadelphia, and remarks: — We have sometimes thought the motto of Protest- -ant Christianity had become, “In essentials, Wnty 5 im non-essentials, liberty; in afl things, charit; . Aud for all the evidence that the motto is the domi- nant sentiment in the discipline of the Church we do give thanks to God. But we would have it so Ahoroughly Lmpressed on the mind and conscience of the people to all commmunions that they shall recog- nize in the true disciple of Christ a Christian brother, not Ww be Fedde Teng or excommunicated or suspended for being unable to apprehend a non-es- sential principle as others do, if he is but loyar to the saith Mg his Church and tn union with its Saviour and Head, The senior editor of the Observer, we are pleased to learn, has returned from the South entirely restored to health. This is an indica- tion that the Southern climate is beneficial to Northern clergymen, especially if they be of the Presbyterian persuasion. Dollinger is now as much a name of i. crest in the epistolic world as that of Deringer is in the pistolic. One of our religious con- temporarles hopes the Dillinger movement won't prove a “flash in the pan.” The Liberal Christian (Dr. H, W. Bellows) discusses “The Deity of Christ” and ‘The Jhairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations” in the same editorial page. It svems to us that it would take a pretty good “bellows” to blow those two subjects happily together. The Richmond Disvateh, in reciting the fot of the death of the well known and well beloved among all sailora in and out of tho waters of Christianity, Father Taylor, of Bos- ton, remarks that he was a Richnrond man, and a very remarkable one, and adds :— He spoke the sailor vernacwar to his audience, who fully appreciated and loved the good old man, On one occasion, Winle making the dust fy from the pulpit cushions, he noticed an old salt, whose weather- MD face was a good fae simile of an old- fashioned door plate, seated near the altar, and who D4 expression tO his conviction of sin vy oud, prolonged groans, and at every renewed blast mm the pulpit che groans Lecame louder, whereat the good father tixed him with his eye and addressed hitn tn these words:—‘‘Luf, brother, Ju(t; luff while sho breezex, and you'll weather hell yet, with tho lee leeches of your topsaiis smoking,’” which neatly expressed the nearest touch and go Possible, and gave good, solid comfort to Jack. Our religious table is unusually full this week. Our contemporaries in that line all seem well-to-do and are doing good service in the spread of the truths of the Gospel. The Sunday schools of all denominations, especi- ally the Catholic, are in a remarkable state of success. God speed them all: A Remarkable Theatrical Success in Ames rica. The steamship Rhein, of the North German line, carried among her passengers from this port yesterday to Europe Fanny Janauschek, the once famous German actress, but now as celebrated and successful as an actress in English. Her professional career in the United States is, perhaps, more remarkable than any- thing we know of an histrionic art. She came here two or three years ago with the highest European reputation, but a stran ser unknown in America, and not speaking a word of English, She formed in German at the Academy of Music and impressed the publis with her extraordinary dramatic talents, and afterwards gave a successful round of performances in the same language at different cities throughout the United States, realizing, as we understand, forty thousand dollars during the season, Her unsurpassed merits were universally recégnized by the press and public. But she saw that her suc- cess was limited by performing before the American people in a language they did not understand, and resolved to master the English language, with a view to perform in it, She had the ambition to become as great an actress in English as she had been in German, Many doubted the result, and not a few said it was impossible she could succeed. But she is a woman not to be deterred by difficulties. Her resolution and perseverance proved equal to her genius. She mastered the English, as many who saw her perform at the Academy of Music again in our language are aware, and has since been more successful than she was while performing in German. During the last fall and winter season Fanny Janauschek has, under her own management, netted over all expenses nearly fifty thousand dollars, Her profits at St. Louis alone for 2 short season amounted to near ten thousand dollars. This shows not only the splendid talents, determi- nation and perseverance of Janauschek, but the appreciation and liberality of the American public as well. We understand Miss Janaus- chek is going to Europe for a few months only, and that she will return to this country to make it her home and the field of her future efforts in dramatic art. Nothing in the bis- tory of artists is more remarkable than her career, and it is gratifying to know that she is so well appreciated by the American people. The Catholic Party iu the German Par- lament. Our news columns this morning contain an interesting letter from the Hgratp’s special correspondent in Berlin, furnishing a ré- sumé of the recent debate in the German Reichstag, during which the Catholic party made manifest the ground on which it stands. The representatives of every opinion par- ticipated in the discussion which sprang from the proposition to make some amend- ments to the new constitution. Lay as well as clerical, Catholic as well as Protestant, and conservative as well as liberal, took advan- tage of the debate to ventilate their opinions on the subjects of religion, reform, liberty and license. The Catholics, notwithstanding that they made a brave, determined fight, and struggled boldly for such concessions as the liberty of the press and the right of assem- blage, which were included in the proposed amendments to the constitution, were de- feated by a large majority. ‘‘Never,” said the Bishop of Mayence in the conrse of his argu- ment, ‘‘vote for laws which are in violation of the laws of God;” and the observance of this rule, he contended, would prevent all danger of rebellion on the part of the clergy. It was evident, from the tone of the remarks of the clericals all through, that their great aim, however, was an attempt to influence the gov- ernment to a line of policy which would result in the acknowledgment of the temporal power of the Papacy and the restoration to the Pope, through the aid of Germany, of his posses- sions ; but the opposition was too great and the advocates of a free Church in a free State too numerous for such an accomplish- ment. During the discussion, which through- out was wari and vigorous, the liberals were unmistakable in their language and forcible in their manner of putting their ideas of pro- gression before the assembluge. Deputy Bebel, one of the social democracy party of Saxony, had so slight a notion that such mea- sures as a free press and the right of assem- blage would be engrafted in the new constitu- tion that he deemed it almost “‘superfluons to discuss the rights of man unless we are deter- mined in case of need to seize them by force. We shall never obtain them in Germany if we don’t say, ‘Give them to us or we will take them!’” And so the debate progressed to the end. From the manner in which it was con- ducted, as well as from the sentiments enunci- ated and the parties engaged in it, we have every reason to believe that an agitation has been inaugurated which will result favorably to religion, liberty and progression throughout the empire. A New OLarmant For THe Wiirr House. — A new claimant for Presidential honors ap- peared at Police Headquarters in Washington yesterday and demanded assistance in obtain- ing possession of the White House, asserting that he had been elected President of the United States by the people in the place of General Grant. The would-be Executive is evidently a lunatic, and was furnished trans- portation to Pawtucket, R. L, of which place he is a resident, The Expulsion of the Bishop from Havana. By the steamer Missouri, from Havana, which arrived at this port on Friday last, came the Kev. Dr. Martinez, Bishop of Havana, accompayied by. his secretary, the Abbé Parta, The Bishop, en route from Europe, whither he bad gone to attend the Eeumenical Council, left'this city for Havana some two weeks ago, duly furnished with authority from the government at Madrid to the Captain General, Valmaseda; but on reaching Havana he was refused permission to go ashore, on the pretext that his creden- tials from Madrid were not countersigned by the Spanish Consul at New York. All efforts to change the mind of Valmaseda proving useless, the Bishop had no other alternative than to return to New York, being literally expelled from Cuba. The reat reasons for this expulsion of the Bishop, as it appears, are of a political character. He was ordained and assigned to Havana in 1864, and was on such good terms with Captain General Dulce that he was denounced with Dulce as a traitor by the Spanish volunteers of the Valmaseda faction. Next, it appears there was some difficulty between the Bishop and Lersundi, the next Captain General, concerning certain church honors demanded by Lersundi in his travels from place to : place, which the Bishop could not give him. But, worst of all, the Bishop in the discharge of his religious offices had considered it his duty to take equal care of the souls of the Spaniards and of the Cuban insurgents, and had, accordingly, sent some of his priests among the latter; and this was enough for Valmaseda. His doctrine has been and is that the Cubans, fighting for their independence, are not only traitors entitled to no quarter, but that, dying, they have no right to the consolations of the Church, and that the Bishop, in undertaking to administer such consolations to the Cubans, proved himself a traitor, It may yet appear, however, that in his task of subduing the Cuban insurgents Valmaseda has mado a great mistake in ex- pelling the Bishop of Havana, devoted to him as are the whole population of the island.

Probable Loss of Gloucester Fishing Vessels— Four Schooners nud Forty Men Mivsing. Boston, April 22, 1871.

An actor or actress attempting to represent so mythical a person may find himself or herself in pretty mnuch the same position of perplexity as the tisher- man who, meeting & countryman in the sirect, a4- dressed him thus:—"When first | saw you comiig up Ithought you were your brother. I then thought you were Yourself; but now J And you are neither one orthe other.” Whether the beautifal lady woo is to waik the boards of the Queen’s Theatre on Monday night, and who it is expected will a!so pe consigned to mimic flames ut the stake, is to be ac- cepted as Joan ot Are or her siste Mrs, Rot ‘bY, 18. & question Which m: dectsion of Protessor Delplerre or erudite pundit of the day. ‘There is mention in one of M Austin’s novels of @ romantic young pars who, being about to propose ‘for a lay, age nis love speeches thus:-- “Before allow myself to be run away. with by my jeelings, permit me to inquue what fortane you have?’ With equal prudence the audience at the Queen's may be advised, before they break their hearts over the sorrows of Joan of Arc, to satisty themselves that any such person as Joan of Are ever existed.

In the meantime, how- ever, while we are waitiug for the fruition of summer, the artists are clearing out their accummulated stock by private sale, and in the art galleries and auction rooms. Thus many excel - lent pictures are at the disposal of the public. it 1s an unpleasant thing for the artist to find the cor- ners of his studio filled up with the works of unpro- ductive genius; but it 19 a gift to the public, which is generally appreciated, when he places his pic- tures in the salesroom where the public can get pos- Session Of them 1f they are Were: cnougn we wor- chase. Whether the motive be selfish or unselfish, the benefit to the public isthe same. We are always glad to get hold of the gems of our local studios, Private and Public Galleries. For the works of foreign artists we are indebted 48a general rule to the enterprise of professional picture dealers. The owners of works by Euro- pean masters of any great merit very seldom putthem up for competition. They regard their private gallertes as the sanctuaries and the shrines where the gems of art, of which they are the fortu- nate poasessors, should properly repose in perpetua, honored as hetrlooms of the family and evidences of their own refined taste. Thus we never hear of Mr. Aspinwall, or Mr. Marshall 0. Roberts, or Mr. August Belmont, and many other gentlemen, per- mitting their pictures—selected as they have been with the utmost care, and purchased at fabulous prices—going into the salesroom to have their merits decided by the skill of the aucuoneer or the liberality of the purchasers, But for all that, while the cr?me de fa créme of pictorial art doés not often come under the hamu there are many pictures of exceeding merit to be had almost every day at the art galleries. Many of the best pictures of American arusts find their way into the homes of our citizens through these chan- nels, while many of the really meritorious works of the foreign school, especiaily the Dutch, the French and the Dusseldorf, which are evidently the favorites, are represented occasionally. We confess, however, that we snould like to see more merit and less mediocrity in this class. In most instinces the pictures of such artists as Verbockhoven, P Lyendecker, Robbe and several of the Duss artists are very poorly and often very dabiousiy re- presented. Of course we are greatly at the mercy of the picture dealers for this, a goo ) deal more than to the conscientiousness of the auctioneer, who, in nine cases out of ten, knows little or nothing about the picwure he 1s selling, beyond the comparative price it ought to bring under the hammer. We must educate the public taste for art t higher standard before purchasers of pictures can protect themscives against the chances of buying very poor specimens of art under the title of a loud sounding nu THE DUTY OF QUR WEALTAY CITIZENS. We would suggest, in this regard, to the gentle- men who own fine galleries of rare works, an ex- tended liberality towards the public. In the absence of such superb galleries of art as London and Paris and the other leading cities of Europe possess— which are iegarded as the property of the people— we are confined to the private collections of our wealthy citizens. Therefore a generous liberality on their part woulda be most acceptable aud aighly useful. The Somerville Art Gallery. During the coming week—that is to say, on Tues day and Wednesday evenings—there will pe a sale of paintings at the Somerville Art Gallery, on Fifth avenue, The catalogue comprises variety enough, including thirty-one artists of the French school, led off by Rosa Bonheur, Diaz, Pecrus, J. L, Brown, Corot (who has a gem in landscape), Bongureau and Tinot. Dusseldorf is represented by twenty- three artists, and the American school by fifteen artists, including m the list Bterstadt, De Haas, Tait, Shattuck, William and James Hart, McEntee, Cagticar, Neblig and Gifford. The c lection upon the whoie 18 @ good one. Of the 171 pictures on che walls we might safely say that there are fifty of decided merit, which would Warrant the prophecy that a will bring high prices. Two or three will be suilicient to indicate What we mean. The “Gipsey Horse,” by Sehr : the “Wood Scene,’’ by Dia, an exquisite study; the thel; Baron’s “Scene im the a jew Scholar,” by é Garden of Versatiles,” Chavet's “Studio” and Ko: Bonheur’s “Highland Sheep” will undoubtedly com- mand liberal priees, provided that the company ve giited with good taste and judgment. All the pictures to be oifered for sale were con- sigued to Somerville Art Gallery by Messrs. Goupil and Snedicor. Many of them are, therefore, familiar Ww love rs of art. SALE AT JOMNSTON & VAN TASSEL A very good sale of pictures took p! salesroom of Jobnston & Van Tassell, street, On Friday apd Saturday. Were most largely represented, some of our most prominent painters being in the catalogue, As « general thing the prices realized were not quite equal to the value of the pictures—a fact which lias. trates that @ good many purchasers got bargul which they will not regret. fO8 ARTISTS IN THS Srupios are Anishing ap their winter labors.
