Tre MANTLE OF VALLANDIGHAM.—The Cin- einnati 7imes says the mantle of Vallandigham will fall upon Samuel S. Cox, the well known Congressman from this city. The only mate- rial difference between the two, however, is that while Vallandigham opposed the war, Cox volunteered his services in the Union armies. Cuter Justice Case favors the demo- cratic ‘“‘new departure.” Our correspondent bad an interview with him at Cincinnati recently, and he said that many republicans would join the democrats if the ‘tuew departure” were adopted. ‘‘I\ is,” said he, ‘the nucleus of a new party. It is a platform upon which hon- est, patriotic men of both parties can come together.” Tux IraLiaN GOVERNMENT has been informed by Jules Favre, officially, that the Papal Guard supposed to be recruiting by Colonel Charette belongs to the French army, and is not a Papal Guard at all. Tlaly is reassured in consequence, it being pretty generally con- ceded by Victor Emmanuel’s “government that France has her hands full in guarding herself, without undertaking to guard the Pope. At tHE Conpen Banquet on Saturday evening Earl Granville and the new Marquis of Ripon (better known here as the Earl De Grey) had further remarks to make about the Treaty of Washington. They concurred in the idea that it was a neighborly compact of peace and amity, a great and good work in its rela- tions to che past and to the future, and that it secured peace and good will between the two countrice, NEW Y' Arrangements for the Election of a New Pope. Private information from sources absolutely reliable leaves us no room to doubt that the leaders of the Cutholic world are deeply exer- cised about the next Papal conclave and the probable successor of Pius IX. in the chair of St. Peter. That it should be so ought not to fill us with surprise, As far back as 1859 it is known that arrangements were made for the election of a successor to Pius 1X. In conse- quenoe of the continued good health of the Holy Father, and in consequence, also, of the power- ful protectorate of France, the excitement of that period died out, and we have heard little abont the next conclave or about the next pos- sible occupint of the Holy See. The fall of France, and the determination of the Italian government to make Rome its headquart:rs, have afresh compelled the loaders of the Ro- man Catholic Church to make such provision that, in the event of the sudden death of the Holy Father, either in or out of Rome, no dif- ficulty should be experienced in the election of a suitable successor. The fall of France and the determined action of the Italian gov- ernment, are not, however, the only reasons why this subject again commands attention, The Holy Father has seen the days of St. Peter; be has had his jubilee; and the fact is not disguised, either by the Pope or his ad- visers, that in the natural conrse of things the election of « successor must at no distant day be a necessity. Always, for the last ten bun- dred years at least, Papal elections have been events of world-wide interest; and it is not, we think, unfair to say that the next election will be fully as interesting to the wide-spread family of min as anything of the kind which has gone before The presumption is that ‘for at least once more the old machinery will be employed in the election of the next Pope, whoever he may be. It is a cumbrons, old-fashioned kind of machinery, which, though it has worked well enough in the past, is but poorly adapted to the requirements of this advanced age, and particularly to the entirely new conditions in which the Papacy finds itself. There are but few who know anything of Papal conclaves or of the modus operandi of Papal elections. In view of an approaching event of so much im- portance, our readers will not be ungrateful to us if we he!p them to understand what is meant by a Papal conclave, and explain to them the working of the machinery by which, when oceasion calls for it, a new Pope is manufac- tured. The word conclave (from con, with, and clavis, a key) is applied both to the apart- ment in which the Cardinals meet to elect a Pope and to the Cardinals themselves asa body when thus in session, In early times the election ot the Pope was the joint preroga- tive of the civil power, the clergy and the people. It was to all intents and purposes a popular election. So it was until the days of Hi'debrand, that mightiest of monks, the over- shadowing ge.ius of the Papacy during the eventful reigns of six Popes, himself at the culmiuating hour seating himself in that chair which he had rescued from ruin and trans- formed into a throne of might. It was Hilde- brand who secured the nomination of Nicholas Il, at Florence in 1059, and scarcely bad Nicholas mounted the Papal throne when, yielding to the influence of the Warwick of the time, the great Pope-maker, he issued the Bull which must be regarded as the original charter of the College of Cardinals. By it the College of Cardiaals was called into existence as an ecclesiastical Senate, ‘‘and invested organi- cally with the elective franchise which can give a head to the Church.” TheeBull solemnly decreed “‘that the election of Pope appertains first to the Cardinal Bishops who officiate for the Metropolitan; then to the Cardinal Clerks, and that the remainder of the clergy and the people tender but their acquiescence in the election; so that the Cardinals have the lead in making choice of Popes, the others only fol- lowing them.” The innovation was resented by the tumultuous populace of Rome, civil and ecclesiastical, and the imperial Crown ex- pressed its indignation at thus being robbed of its rights. Hildebrand, however, was equal to the difficulty, A sop was given to both classes of malcontents, The Roman clergy and people were pacified by the assurance that the Pope would be selected in preference out of the bosom of the Roman Church; and the Emperor was sought to be conciliated with the proviso, ‘saving the honor and reverence due to our beloved son Henry, at present King, and who, with God’s favor, it is to be hoped, will become Emperor, as likewise to all his successors who may have personally acquired this right from the Apostolic See.” Alexander III, after the Church bad had some experience of the working of the new machine, promulgated a decree that no Papal election should be valid with a majority of less than two-thirds of those voting—a provision which remains in force to this day. It had thus been arranged that the franchise was vested in the Cardinals alone, and that no Pope could be considered legally elected except by the vote of two-thirds of the electors present. Oa the 29th of No- vember, 1268, Pope Clement IV. died at Viterbo, and the Cardinals, eighteen in num- ber, assembled in said city, and in the palace in which the Pope died, to elect his successor. For two years and nine months the Cardinals wrangled, and the new Pope was ultimately elected by a committee of six—the first com- promise in the history of Papal elections, Later, in the days of Pope Gregory X., it was ruled that after the Pope's decease ten days must be allowed to elapse before bis suc- cessor could be chosen, the object being to allow Cardinals at « distance time to be pre- sent at the election. There are many other little facts which might be mentioned regard- ing the electing power; but for the present enough has been said to show how it is that the Cardinals alone own the franchise, As to the modus operandi, it has to be said that it was fixed at an early date, and that up to this day no material change has taken place, Formerly the elections took place in the Vatican. Since 1823 they have taken place in the Quirinal. As we have said be- fore, ten days are allowed for the obsequies, for the arrival of absent members, and for other requisite preliminary arrangements, We cannot in this article go into all the para- phernalia inseparable from a conclave: Suf- fice it to say that at a given bour and anmis- takable sigaal the Oardinals, on the lagt day, retire to their cells, and there alone, shut out from the world, prepare to give their vote, The decree of Gregory the Tenth provided that if a choice were not made by the Cardinals within three days, for the next five days only one dish at noon and evening sbould be allowed to cach, and after that time only bread and water. One impor- tant fact requires stil! to be mentioned. From some cause, not wel! known, France, Spain and Austria have the right of veto. When the present occupant of the Holy See was elected, the veto of Aus'ria, which would have ruined his chances, arrived a day too late. Tue vote is taken by baliot. Usually there is what is called a supplementary vote. If the two- thirds are not obtained at the first ballot, say in the morniny, then whit is called accedo is permitted, and each voter has the privilege of dropping his own candidate and voting for the candidate of any of his associates. Into the details of the election of a Pope we cannot go farther at prosont. What we have said is sufficient to give our readers an idea of the machine which makes and the manner in which is made a new Pope. As we said before, it is a good enough old-fashioned agency, although by no means suited to this age of newspapers, telegraphs, railroads and steamboats. With the downfall of the temporal power has come a new era for the Papacy. It is not necessarily a bid era, Its goodness or bad- ness, however, depends very much on the Papacy itself. Has it learned enough to be reasonable? Willit adopt a new depart- ure? As we have already indicated, our con- viction is, it will cling to the ofd paths; and the presump'ion is that whore it might win a golden vic.ory it will make disastrous ship- wreck. The Papacy has become by recent changes a purely spiritual power. It has been forced back to apostolic simplicity. It has found itseif, against its will, in the current of modern progress. The Pope of Rome is 4 name which must be abandoned. The Vicar of Christ is a nam» the power of which will never die. Rome has lost its magical influence; Christ has not. The next Pops should ba the choice of the Catholic world, not the choice of the College of Cardinals. In the College of Cardinals where is America, where is Great Britain, where is G@2rmany? Nowhere, And yet these absent ones are the potencies of the present, the hopes of the future. We have no hope of seeing a grand popular Papal election ; but it must come sooner or later. If the Pa- pacy is to last it must adopt a popular pro- gramme and take its stand on a popular plat- form. The Vicar of Carist is yet a mighty name if the Church only knows how to use it. That Perpetual Trouble. For the past thirty yoars Brigham Young and the Mormons have furaished the news- reading public more startling and varied en- tertainment in a sensational way than all the other religioa-professing people upon this Continent. Brigham is a Vermonter by birth, and got early incrusted into his cranium that the world was a huge imposition, and that it was less important what a man was than what he seemed to be. Upon this principle the chief of the Mormon movement has acted ever since he came into power and direction, after the death of Joseph Smith, his interesting predecessor in the business of modern revela- tion. Brigham believes that the world is a great chaos of thought; that the people neither know what they want nor are they ever con- tented with what they attain to, but are ever reaching after something far-fetched and be- yond their comprehension. Actuated by such thoughts, he has adopted it as a philosophical deduction of history that he should stir up the United States every now and again with some of his peculiar phantasies. Adopting the theory that the world is speedily reaching its grand finale, he is particularly unctuous in his cursings and consignments to the nether re- gions of all who oppose him, In this spirit he has acted fora quarter of a century, and now that he reaches the grand culminating contro- versy that decides whether superstition or fact is to dominate he is ready to cast all upon the die; and so commences the trouble of which our special correspondent at Sait Lake has given us notice. Regarding the struggle for supremacy in Utah between the old order of theocratic government and the aspiratioas of republican sentiment now prevailing there, no one need be deceived by representations or misrepresenta- tions. It is but the repetition of history. The old system of things is passing sway ; the new is asserting its right to live and to take the ascendancy in the political discussions of the future. Our special despatches of the last forty- eight hours have attracted the attention of President Grant, and he is reported to have been fully advised on the subject, and is cer- tain to properly act in the premises. The people expect of President Grant no further concessions to the policy of a kitchen cabinet that was forever tampering with the Mormons, but a manly, straightforward course, that will increase the respect and confidence of the people in the Chief Magistrate of a great republic ; and we shall be pleased to see such a policy adopted toward Usah and the Mor- mons 48 will convinca that obstinate old man, Brigham Young, that nothing but sincerity in word and in action can possibly paddle him over the troubles of this life that now beset him. His people are divided among them- selves; the intelligent are against him, and the superstitious alone are with him. The federal officials in that Territory are honorable, up- right mea, and the nation desires to see them’ sustained. All that is left for President Grant to do is to assert his determination to fight out the Mormon trouble on the line of republican principles, if it takes him all this summer and the next after it, and as sure as he occupies the White House now so certain will the Rocky Mountain votes be recorded for Grant in the forthcoming campaign. Genera, Grant Dovoina tHe Bores.— The skiltul way in which the President dodges the politicians and office-seckers is amusing. They go to Long Branch to catch him, and when there they find he has quietly slipped away to enjoy a drive in Central Park, New York. They follow him here, and, lo! he has gone to Long Branch or somewhere else, His reticence proves useful to him on many occa- sions, but never more so than when he keeps secret his movements to get out of the way of bolitical and office-seeking bores, Sermons, Metaphorical and Otherwise. Aclear, bright day, sunshiny, but not too hot; just such a day when the foliage looks greener and the flowers smell sweeter than usual; just the day, in fact, for pious muslins and religious light suits—such was yesterday. Wherefore it is that our reporters agree ia representing the attendance at the churches as having been large—not so large, of course, a3 in the fall and winter months, for thirty thou- sand persons have left the metropolis, and New Yorkis out of town, but large enough to excite the reportorial attention, and even to divert it from prayer and words of wisdom to which the reportorial atteation is most fre- quently devoutly directed. We could wish that the sermons were in all respects equal to the weather and the attendance, for they cer- tainly were not. Dr. Blades’ metaphors were somewhat mixed. The reverend gentleman got them into the commercialin describing the siv- ner’s approach to God. He likened the approach to the penniless artisan going to a bank witha note which he desires discounted. The cashier knows that he has no credit, but on turning the note he perceives that the endorser’s credit is unlimited. Our notes, endorsed by Jesus, continued the metaphorical Blades, opens heaven to us. Here the cashier and the dis- counting are merely implied, as if, by the way, discounting the Saviour's endorsement was an exhibition of unbounded confidence in its secn- rity. But at any rate sure payment 1s before us, and Blades invites us to receive the cash, We are to ‘‘draw near” and have our ‘‘hearts sprinkled” and our ‘bodies washed with pure water.” All this is very good, but what has it to do with the notes and their endorsement? If we are to get paid in this sort of style Chris- tian applicants at the Bank of Paradise must prepare for a somewhat cold reception, there being no hot water in the celes‘ial abode. Leaving these fields of metephor we turn to Trinity church, whose aristocratic congre- gation were considerably astonished when a colored minister from the South appeared and officiated. In his sermon this dark-hued man and brother drew a sombre picture of religion among the negroes, and accounted in some measure for the possibility of Ku Klux out- rages. Mr. Northrop preached a fiery sermon onthe hardness of the transgressor’s way, in which the recent ‘‘corner” in Rock Island was broadly alluded to. He expressed the opinion that a stock broker never went to Wall street with a Bible ia his pocket. We should say that he is mistaken. A whole chapter in Scripture is rehearsed there daily in the worship of the golden bull. Mr. Beecher said a favorable word in behalf of praise, holding that it should be regulated, not eradicated, which is sound doctrine. There is no greater incentive to well-doing than judicious com- mendation. Rev. Mr. Chapman preached a thoughtful sermon on the yoke of Christianity, which he believed light enough. In West- cbester county Archbishop McCloskey aided in the dedication of the Church of St. Jerome, delivering an interesting address; while in Washington Dr. Newman discoursed on in- temperance, and appealed to moderate drink- ers among the wealthy classes to give up the Veuve Cliquot. For the subjects of the other sermons we mut refer the readers to the re- ports, in the hope that they may be found full of religious instruction. Christian Missions in © and Japan. We publish this morning a résumé of an interesting address on the subject of Christian Missions in China and Japan, delivered in San Francisco by tho Bishop of Victoria. This prelate, who is now on his way to England, takes a rather gloomy view of the situation. He charges the Chinese government with an intention to expel all missionaries from China and to extirpate Christianiiy io the Celestial Empire; and it must be admitted that the re- cent governmental edicts, placing missionaries under the supervision of the local mandarins, and prohibiting females from propagating the doctrines of Christianity, justify the fears of the Bishop. In Japan there is no con- cealment whatever of the real purpose of the heathens. Proselytism is absolutely forbidden under heavy penalties, and proselytes are re- duced to a state of virtual slavery and sent into the interior to work in the mines. The Bishop looks to the great Powers to compel the Chinese and Japanese governments to pursue a more liberal policy. Undoubtedly these alone possess the power of bringing China and Japan to a proper sense of the de- mands and spirit of modern civilization. Moral suasion bas thus far failed to enlighten the minds of their rulers, and perhaps the power- fal argument of modern breech-loading can- nons and rifles may succeed. Still it will be best, perhaps, to exhaust all peaceful meas- ures before resorting to shells and bullets. Rowpy Puitapetrnta.—The conduct of the Philadelphians in their Academy of Music, on the occasion of an amateur performer mak- ing his d¢ébit last Thursday, shows that under the meek Quaker exterior of the city there is a great deal of gross rowdyism. The foolishly ambitious gentleman who wanted to display dramatic talents he did not possess might have been an object of good-natured ridicule, but throwing torpedoes, cabbages, a dead cat in a state of decomposition and other things on the stage, accompanied by frightful yells, showed the low instincts of the audience. And all this was in the most fashionable and elegant place of amusement in Philadelphia. Our Bowery boys would hardly have been guilty of such conduct. We recommend the religious societies of New York, instead of sending missionaries to Christianize the South Sea Islanders, to send them to Philadelphia, Imrortanr RumMor—The rumor that the President is to devote several evenings at his Long Branch cottage this week to a hearing of the difficulties between the Conkling-Murphy inside republicans of this city and the Fenton- Greeley outsiders, the object being a compro- mise, if possible, on the grand peace idea of the Joint High Commission. The ultimatum of Fenton is said to bs Greeley for Collector, and the sine qua non of Conkling is Murphy. Possession being nine points of the law, the probabilities are in favor of Mr. Murphy, un- less “‘the Boss” can do something to turn the scale, Inany event we say—‘‘Let us have peace,” Manrswa. Serrano is forming a new Spanish Ministry for Amadeus’ sake—that is, literally translated, for the love of God—which is a very impressive Spanish invocation ORK HERALD, MONDAY, JUNE 26, 1871.-WITH SUPPLEMENT, Opening of the traumionable Summer Seasen— The Bohemian Gentry Abroad. That the summer fashionable season is Pretty well opened is to be seen from our ad- verlising columns. Moreover, the fact of such opening is to be realized from the volume of letters we daily receive inviling us to become the welcome ‘‘deadhead” guests of some sensa- tional or unobtrusive watering place. For an example of the latter we submit the follow- ing. It is dated at OcEAN Hovsz, BEACH, Me., } June 21, 1871, To THE EpiToR oF THE HERALD:— ‘This aay [ send you a local paper with an editorial article descriptive of this house, I shall feel ple .sed to have you read it. And [ particularly desire to book you a room or two either ior a iong or short period, in this house.

But your own Presence would ‘e preferable. ‘Trusting to have a satisfactory reply soon, that I may secure a good front room, yours very traly, Now, while we are really glad to witness the auspicious prospects for a successful season at all our fashionable watering places, we must protest against the humiliation which some managers of these places would heap upon respectable members of the press by sending invitations like the above. We say, while we are pleased to know that such unexceptionably popular summer resorts as Long Branch, Cape May, Saratoga, Newport, Niagara Falls, White Mountains, Catskill Moun- tains, with their White Sulphur Spring House ; Lake George, West Point, with its happy Coz- zening; the Highlands of Navesink, Schooley’s Mountain, New London, with its Pequot House; Sharon Springs, Lake Mahopac, Chittenango Springs, New York; Bergen Point, with its pleasant La Tourette House ; Seneca Lake, with its Watkins Glen and its ever Pleasant Valley, rich in the juices of its vineyards and the deliciousness of its atmosphere; Long Island, with its Rockaway and its Far Rockaway beaches, its Bath Cot- tage, its Bay View, its Neptune House at Woodsburg, its Coleman, Canarsie, Peco- nic, Greenport, South Side and other houses; Staten Island; Orange, New Jersey, with its Heath’s Mountain House, Lockley House, its Huguenot Springs Hotel, its Mountain Retreat House at Balmville ; Englewood Park House at Perth Amboy; Passaic, with its Acquackononck House; Keyport, with its Cliffwood Springs and Pavilion Hotels; Mon- treal, with its Ottawa House, and—but we can scarcely recall at this moment the num- berless other places in our own vicinity as well as at a distance toward which the attention of the public has been called through the proper channels— gratified, as we are, to learn that all these and many other summer resorts and summer boarding places are in a fair way of doing a prosperous business the pre- sent season, we must repeat our protest against the system in vogue at some of the places of fashionable recreation of ‘‘dead- heading” newspaper men, many of whom, no doubt, are of the bogus Bohemian genus, whose effusions are better calculated to bring discredit upon fashionable resorts than money into the pockets of the proprietors. A popu- lar and well regulated summer hotel needs no puffery of this kind. It will stand or fall upon its merits. The HEraLp neither asks nor will its proprietor knowingly allow its representatives to accept subsidies of this or any other kind from hotel keepers, railroad or steamboat companies, nor from any other source in which the great public have to pay their way, as every honest class of the community is obliged todo. Wo ara opposed to the entire free ticket system, root and branch, including Long Branch and all other branches where fashion, fun, funds, frivolity or fanfaronade are expected to con- gregate during the sultry summer solstice. Every respectable member of the press should join us in putting down this reprehensible ‘‘deadhead” practice, and thus elevate the professional standard of the press of the United States to that dignified and independent position which its power and influence entitle it to demand. Hence we caution all hotel keepers, all managers of places of summer resort, all rail- road and steamboat people, to be cautious how they throw out free bait to parities represent- ing themselves to belong to the Heratp. As the grand motto of the American people is “Pay as you go,” no one should unnecessarily be exempt from its application. German SagnGerrest.—This will be a great week with our musical Germans. The twelfth annual festival of the Northeastern Saengerfest, which practically commenced on Saturday evening Inst, and with great enthu- siasm, notwithstanding the ‘“‘pitiless storm,” will be continued from day to day, day and evening, in one form or another, till Wednes- day and Thursday next, and these two clos- ing days will be devoted to a grand picnic in Jones’ Wood. The programme for this day will embrace a matin¢e at Steinway Hall, with its numerous prize singing societies, assisted by an orchestra of fifty of our best instrumen- talists, under the direction of Carl Bergmann, and a monster concert in the evening at the Skating Rink. Traly our harmony-loving Germans know how to enjoy themselves, Success to them, Tur New Kina or Spatn has evidently a rough journey before him. On Saturday last the Cortes, by a vote of one hundred and sixty- four to ninety-elght, voted an address to the King equivalent to a want of confidence, the majority being made up by a combination of republicans, Carlists and adherents of Isabella, The retirement of the whole Minis- try was then announced; but the King had at the last accounts refused to accept their resignations, A new Ministry, under Marshal Serrano, is probable, however; but what then? Only a new combination to displace this new Ministry, and so on, till we have another Spanish revolution. Horran ror Horrman!--The Daily 7'rue Georgian has thrown to the breeze, on the new democratic flag called the ‘new depar- ture,” the glorious name of John T. Hoffman for the next Presidency, while in the same town Alexander H. Stephens, in the Atlanta Sun, has unfarled the standard of tho ‘old departure,” which means “down with nigger suffrage.” How are these two flags to travel together in 1872? We don’t know, $$$ es Harrower—Riley—Pendicton, In our weekly ministerial review wo have not by any means exhausted the panel of popular and interesting preachers represent- ing the different denominations in our city, and to-day we present our readers with three more whose praise is in the churches, and and whose labors in the Gospel are known beyond their own immediate congregations. The Rev. ©. S. Harrower, pastor of St. Luke’s Methodist Episcopal church, in Forty- first street, near Sixth avenue, is a young man of meek and quiet address, rather retiring in manner, and evidently possessing a spirit full of sympathy and tenderness. This is thrown into his pulpit discourses sometimes with very excellent effect, His sermons are thoughtfal and are carefully writtea; but they are not read from the manuscript in the style of the schoolboy’s essay, but rather as the professor or teacher, who, though master of his subject, feared he might not, in the multitude of other thoughts, b: able to make every point clear to his pupils, might pon and read his lectures to them. Every word is ut- tered slowly and distinctly, and in such a man- ner that the hearer can scarcely fail to catch the inmost thought in the mind of the speaker. Mr. Harrower generally speaks very plaintively and very directly, and there is no chance for a sinner to shield himself under the plea that the minister is talking about some one in China, and not about him. His sermons are neither wholly expository nor wholly philosophical, but a harmonious blending of both, and the doubt- ing mind and the scoffing infidel are left with- out excuse if they neglect the warnings and admonitions of the preacher and count the blood of the covenant an unholy thing and remain in their sins. He is a!so an active worker in the Sunday school, and, thoush Methodism in that neighborhood is compara- tively young, he has a very fair school gath- ered together in this place on the Sabbath, This is Mr. Harrower’s first appointment to a city church, bat we don’t think it will be his last or only one, The Rev. Isaac Riley, D. D., is the pastor of the Reformed church in Tairty-fourth street, near Eighth avenue. He, too, is a young man, earnest and eloquent and full of zeal in the cause of Christ and of religion, His services are generally well attended, though occasion- ally, we believe, some of his congregation slide away to hear his Methodist neighbor, Mr. Cookman. Dr. Riley is also an excellent Sun- day school man and takes a great interest in the instruction and bappiness of the young. His sermons are usually a combination of the expository and scientific styles of discourse, and are frequently made interesting and instructive by illustrations and incidents drawn from nature and experience, in the application of which he is very powerful aod effective. In the lecture and prayer meetings Dr. Riley is equally interesting and instructive. He is a man of fine culture and extensive reading, and knows how to make the most of his knowledge in bis illustrations of Scriptural subjects. He is justly beloved by his people, whom he also loves in return. The Rev. W. H. Pendleton, pastor of the Fifly-third street Baptist church, bas few equals in his denomination as an earnest church worker. He has built up the church edifice in which he serves, and gathered into it a membership of about five hundred, to whom he ministers, and a congregation of twice that number, within the past few yeara, And both he and his people have been lifting up the standard of the cross there in a new and rising neighborhood, where not long ago the whole area was covered with the miserable dwellings of sqmatters. Many of these have heard the Gospel in and through the Fifty-third street Baptist church, and are now rejoicing in its faith and hope. Mr. Pendleton ‘s a man of nervous temperae ment, and is full of life and activity, both in the pulpit and out of it. His sermons treat mainly on practical subjects and such as enter into the everyday life of his charch and con- gregation, and the vigor and zeal which he himself possesses he has in a measure imparted to his people, so that they have become, in truth, a missionary society to the region round about them. His church is one of the finest Baptist edifices in the city, and his Sunday school one of the largest. Were all our city churches and pastora as active and earnest in the work of the Lord as the Rev. Mr. Pendleton and his Fifty-third street Baptist church are, we can hardly conceive the change that might be be wrought in the moral character of this city within a comparatively short time.

The idea is also still kept afloat that Mr. Fish will soon go out in order to rest from hie political labors; but after what the President said the other day at Long Branch to a HeraLp correspond- ent in reference to his able, faithful and diligent Secretary of State, it is probable that Mr. Fish will feel it is bis duty to remain at hie post, at least till the close of General Grant's present term. In the event of the General's re-election in 1872, which now appears to be morally certain, he will doubtless submit to the Senate in 1873 a new Cabinet from first to last. Nirsson At ARTILLERY Practice.—That charming prima donna, Miss Nilsson, seems to be ambitious of learning everything and of distinguishing herself in other things than on the stage. It is said she performed the réle of gunner on the day of the regatta both om board the Quarantine steamer, the Fletcher, when saluting the yachts as they passed, and afterward at Fort Hamilton in firing off one of the immense guns there. Imagine the gentle Nilsson as another Maid of Saragossa! A Grant aNv CAMERON CLUB has beon organized in Bultimore, Tuois shows that among the Maryland republicaxs there are some active leaders who believe that, as in 1872 the Vice Presidency on the Grant ticket will be an open question, General Cameron will be among the strong men for the position. Can it be that Mr. Fenton is floessing for a compromise on the Vice Presidency? Very likely; but we fear that his finessing will amouat to nothing, /
