The election of a United States Senator in Towa, which was completed yesterday, has attracted general interest throughout the country, from the fact that peculiar influ ences have beeu brought to bear upon the matter, The present incumbent of the seat, Benator HARLAN, was the candidate favored by tho Administration, and strong efforts havo been made to enlist the Methodist denomination in his favor—among others by the circulation of a lithographed copy of a otter from Dr, NewMan, Gen. Grant's spiritual adviser, which certified to the piety of IAnLAN, and urged the members of the Church to work for his re#lection. On the other hand some of the most influectal Methodists in Towa protested Agvinst such efforts tomake the Church a pany to the election of any man, as “an merican, anti republican, aati Chris. movement, and urged that the attempt to secure such influences in behalf of Senator HAntan should be a sufficient reason for his defor, But the most formidable obstacles ant tian of vil whch have appeared in the way of ® tion have been developments ecling him with frauds upon the Trea. sury of the most outraycous character in vo nowith Indian affairs when he was Heer Coy of the Interior, and. other dise eu ficting Lis character for personal honesty s loage Leon understood th t HARLAN, rich sir ecountably becom: he bes Leon in office, hag sustained suspi- F ations with the Indian Ring, and t irc Dring charges of fraud dine ty Liu It has also been sown f money wi re expended to » the Sen of $17,000 cc Penny FUtier, e Indian Ring, who bad been afforded an opportunity under the authe ‘ i 1 rtner election ity oli to moke enormous sums by sell ing to he Government for the Southern In Mave wheat at $8.05 and corm at 7.75 per H year the Superinten- dent of those Indians, who was appointed by Hauran, with his full acquiescence, permit ted Four ) furnish gopplies without ad: vert singe or eompetition, drawing in that time in ther viguborhood of $1,000,000 from the United States Treasury. *Of course Mr. Linx could well afford to give $17,000 to aid in corrupting a Legislature when by doing so he would secure the election of his te oosh 6 wiles sews tele: ove viccs would Le of the utmost value to him, In viow of all these facts the exquisite pro- pricty of selecting Senator HARLAN as one of the Congretsional Committee to investi- atc chorpes of official corruption must be ol vious to the meanest understanding.

NELL never made any examination at all, but Just swallowed the story the bank of ficers chose to tell him, without any ques tion, ond that therefore his judgment is worth nothing. He has no money of h own, ho says, at risk inthe bank, and con fequently his interost init is not such as to impel him to rerutinize its books very close ly, He has only been made use of to try and throw dust in the eyes of those who seek to know the trath, The Dank hav go far paid out about $1,500,000 in the effort to persuade the public that it can pay $4,500,000 more if called upon, Its game evidently is to tire out the depositors, and by stopping their de- mands for their money short of the point at which its inability to pay would become ap- parent, to avoid an exposure of its real condition. It may be that the depositors will be fooled by this game, and that other fools may be found to put fresh money into the bank, but for the present we doubt it. = = Hohe Notwithstanding the vast extent of this country, there is danger that unless some prac- tical legislation should intervene, the time may come when it will be as difficult for poor men to buy land here as it is now for them to do so in Great Britain, In the Western and Pacific States vast tracts are in the hands of speculators, while in many cases individuals monopolize im- mense portions of territory for cultivation, It is said that in the San Joaquin valley, in Califor- ia, nearly 3,000,000 acres, or 4,687 square miles, are owned by two men, while another man owns a tract of 546 square miles.

Mr, Herwoars should understand that there can be no incarnation of # part of the Godhead, Deity is not divisible, and if it is incarnate at all, it is incarnate entire. When the love of God is put into buman shape for the redemption of the world, the wisdom of God, the power of God, the inGuity of God, the absolute self-being of God— ail the divine attributes—are incarnated there- with, Those who do not appreliend this have yet to learn some of the sublimest truths that the Luman mind is able to perceive. teal There is more trouble in Texas among the carpet-baggers—this time in relation to the 1% tody of the spoils.

Another election was afterward ordered, and asin the mean time a satisfactory influence had been brought to bear on Masox, he exerted himeelf in favor of the subscription, refused to allow the votes to be counted, and declared the measure carried.
