Fisk, Jr. A great deal of unseemly mirth has broken out over the country at the expense of our distinguished towasman, Colonel Rear Admi- ral J. Fisk, Jr. The illustrated journals have fairly exhausted their stores of comic illustra- tions, the dailies have been ponderous in their jokes, and now the rural Jones takes up the subject, and our exchanges come laden with false accusations, vile innuendoes and coarse abuse. This, too, after we had almost for- gotten the whole thing in this our city of daily and hourly wonders, ‘ Well, it is getting to be fatiguing, and we not only protest Against the wearying repetitions ‘that, like an oft told tale, vex the ears of a drowsy man, but we are moved by a sense of duty to hurry to the defence of our distin- guished fellow citizen, We say, breathes there a man with sonl so dead who never to himself has remarked, this is our own, our Yownsman, Fisk? or words to that effect, If such a man breathes we feel impelled to say that he must be ashamed of himself, We hasten tothe rescue of Colonel Rear Admiral Fisk, Jr., and hope, by a judicious military statement of facts and comments thereon, to put an end to this improper jest- ing and fun-making and loud laughter that obscures history and does injury to the fair fame of our distinguished townsman. It seems that objection is taken to the fact that when the gallant Ninth appeared charg- ing in upon the rioters Colonel Rear Admiral Fisk, Jr., appeared ia bis shirt sleeves, wa ing his major’s sword. *"* 72°; til ¥ Now, looked at from a correct point Pi view, military and otherwise, we can see no reason- able exception to the shirt. Shirts have ap- peared conspicuous in literary, historical and military annals, First, there was the shirt of Nessus. This garment ts frequently referred to by orators. When a man is suffering from compunctions of conscience he is said to be wearing this classic garment and not to like it It ts gisimed that our literary Mayor, Oakey Hall, bas put himself inside of such a garment for example; and, according to our excitable Irish citizens, His Excellency Gov- ernor Hoffman has not only the shirt but enough material for a pair of drawers, Bub then our Irish fellow citizens are imaginative. Then we have Hood’s *‘Song of the Shirt,’ and, gleaming through the wreck of fallen monarchies, appears the red shirt of Garibaldi. The shirt was the right thing, evidently. But in addition to this we find, on consulting standard military works, such as ‘‘Hardie’s Tactics,” Halleck’s “Art of War” and the New York Tribune, that it is proper for the general in command to avoid unnecessary exposure. ‘The head of the army is generally, in a crisis, the salvation of the army. Had Colonel Rear Admiral J, Fisk, Jr., appeared in his regi- mentals with that diamond on his martial bosom, gleaming like the headlight of a loco- motive, he wonld doubtlessly have drawa upon himself the concentrated fire of old boots, dead cats, brickbats and bullets, What folly were this! There is here, however, a fast that is not taken into consideration. Our gallant friend is not only of the military, Colonel of the gal- fant Ninth, but he fs also a naval hero, being, as we have said, Rear Admiral. Now, when the urgent demand reached him for a boat he had to retire, divest himself of bis military voat and don the naval uniform. What, would a naval order be sent in a military uni- form? Naught. Such conduct would be death to all propriety, and propriety, accord - ing to the high guthorities above referred to, is the soul of discipline and drill. Then, again, we leara from Molitre, in his classic comedy of the ‘‘Miser,” the imporiance of « coat:—‘‘A change of coat made my one ser- vant coachman or a cook.” Itis not too much to say that a coat makes the gallant ¥isk an admirat or a colonel. Before this important naval order could bs ‘completed the olash of urms announced the deadly fray, and our hero, hastily throwing off his aaval character, hastened in his shirt sleeves to the head of his gallant regiment-- “God bless it!" —and waved his major’s sword. Now we know nothing in the military autho - rities before mentioned, or in the constitution as amended, that prohibits a colonel from wearing his major’s sword if his own sword is not handy, This isthe correct thing if the colonel’s sword isa handsome dress sword, set with diamonds and « present fron the vegiment—‘‘God bless it!” This sword, like “le sabre de mon pire,” has to be guarded with jealous care. What a shame, what a ‘aumiliation it would have been to have had ‘the sword of the Colonel taken by the mob and borne in triumph over the decayed eggs, shil- felahs and guns of the mob! The gallant Ninth would have died with vexation st snch a result. This was to be avoided at all hazard. Nor do we find anything but admiration for ‘dhe position of our hero when he was anhorsed. He was in the van, far in the van, in bis shirt sleeves, waving his major’s sword. Colonel Rear Admiral Fisk, Jr., knew enough of the art of war to be well aware that a skirmish line was necessary in a great engagement. A skirmish line, say Hardie, Halleck and the Jearned Greeley, is necessary to feel the enemy and hold him in check until the army is well prepared for action. Our hero saw at s glance of his eagle eye the necessities of the situation, and immediately resolved him- self into a skirmish line and advanced on the The skirmish line felt the enemy, enemy. and the enemy felt the skirmish line. We may suppose, with reasonable con- jecture, that the skirmish line held the foe in check, While the enemy was engaged in kicking the skirmish line, and with deadly intent putting its off ankle out of joint, It could not well advance. Crowded in a nar- row street, beyond the reach of the police, not well organized, distracted by its allies pitching {nto the street from adjoining houses all sorts of projectiles, improvised from cham- ber furniture. it is reasonable to suppore that NeW YORK HERALD, SU @ fatal delay occurred, and the military had full time to deploy into platoons, flank the town pump and secure its threatened flank upon Tomkins, green grocer, aud thus insure an easy victory, fm OF the Colongl’s subsequent movementar " ure ing force that fr some time pressed upon hia front, rear and flank—how he retreated in a masterly manner upon a bakery and narrowly eacaped a siege, how he succeeded in making his retreat bebind a fence and worrled the enemy by a cunning disguise found in a laborer’s jacket, and a shoeblack, who changed in a twinkling the blond mustache of our hero to a brilliant black—all these and many more military movements are well known to the world. Their significance in a military point of view seems lost, however, to the thoughtless, and so will remain until the gallant soldier, like another Cesar, writes his commentaries, which, we trust, he will proceed at once to do at an early day. A Beecher ia Trouble. A Beecher in trouble is an event that sur- prises no one provided the trouble in some way pertains to ecclesiastical affaira, All of the family have had their Church difficulties. The latest event in which ‘‘one of the Beechers” figured was the case of the Rev. Dr. Edward Beecher, who has been asked by a part of his congregation at Galesburg, IIl., to resign his pastorate of the church, This Dr. Beecher very promptly and properly acceded to, though to the sorrow and disappointment of many of his people. The case is not a very remarkable one, except that it shows there are some people who are not even satisfied with a Beecher ministering to them in holy things. Such persons must be very hard to please. Whom they could prefer or what manner of a preacher they would desire it is no easy matter to deter- mine. Indeed, we think that a Congrega- tional ghurch which can dispenge with the pastoral sof even the jecchers, Kifer having once cbtatned them, suid find fault with the preaching and cer- tainly with the doctrines of St. Paul. Nothing gen satisfy some people except a new sensa- tion or » new preacher every Sunday. The ability of a small faction in a Church like that which compelled Dr. Beecher to retire from his charge to work successfully against the desires of a whole congregation is, independently of mere Beecherian con- siderations, much to be deplored. It is cer- tainly a pleasant sight, and one which be- tokens much Christian earnestness to see an aged pastor laboring among a people who have loved and honored him for half a century. The frequent change of ministers in Protestant Churches indicates a want of the true Christian spirit. The factions hos- tility of a few Galesburg people to Dr. Beecher is only a sample of what is going on all ovet the country every day. It is a sin against which few men have the courage to preach, and yet it is one of the crying evils ef the day, We hope this case will serve to call to it the attention of Christian people in every part of the country.

Since I last wrote you Chile has passed very quietly through the crisis of a Presidentiat election, and the result nas been favorable for the govern- Ment candidate, Don Federico Errazuriz, for whom a very large majority of the electors was returned. In Valparaiso and Santiago the voting was con- ductea with the greatest order; there was little noise and no disturbance.

A strong force of police was kept ready and interfered aa soon as the fight broke out. The police, however, became mixed up with the crowd and rendered the confusion still worse, Sticks and clubs were used indiscriminately.
