To preserve tbe peace, ?mil pi unit those oiilv who li.nl legal ctTtiticates to enter tin hail ?uni participate in the ?h'cis'on, the Governor asked protection for the regularly appointed ?Im.i m men.

When simultaneously stories are now set alloat from Washington, from Cincinnati, and else? where, that prominent personal friends of Gov. Hayes are convinced, in advance of the evidence, that be has not been legally elected, and are advising bim to take the work of the Canvassing Beards and the Presidential electors out of their bauds, we begin to suspect that the pan which wrote the multitudinous edi? torials from Liberty-st. is at work again. A circumstantial story was yesterday printed from Cincinnati to the effect that Judge Stanley Matthews, the brother-in-law of Gov. Hayes, had been advised from New-Orleans by Senator Sherman that Hayes w.as clearly defeated, that the proceedings of his sup? porters were an outrage, and that he idiould instantly withdraw. Here was a story that it was possible to put one's hand on. So we telegraphed to Judge Matthews to ascertain the facts.

True Chi ist ?an charity was finely illustrated in a measure adopted at the -Went meeting of the Congregational Conference of Connecticut. A resolution invited the other evangelical de? nominations of the Stale t<? unite with the Congregationalists in set tling such principles of comity as would remoie all ???'casions of an? noyance in their int<'nleii?uninational relations. To make this invitation practical a Committee of correspondence was eppointed. It will, therefore, soon be ismnisln?id how far this proffer of g.1 will is likely t<? be accepted? The occasions for the praetlM of denonrdaa* tional comity are very obvious even to tin? secular mind. Not to speak of the lesser evils which hav?1 Bound from active sectarian com? petition, the multiplication of chuieln-s in our villain?, and small tO#BS has been often cai ried t<? such ex'-ess as to peril th?; adeaujats support of Christian institutions.

This is, perhaps, one of the objet ts contem? plated in the Invitation ol the Conneetieni Congregationalistt to the other denomination of the Male. If Hot, it in,iv be wall worthy of consid?ration. In the vYest, proposals looking in such consolidation of nreoh churebes <?f ?lif leiciit denominational affinities have been pul forth of I.lie years? but with whit piuetical result then- areno means of kno*4V?Ug.

The fa? 1 is, we are not habitually a thank* ful people. vTe hardij givi ourselves time for devout ?tniitions, and besides, we are ton ttUMh in lora with OV own edbct. and their BOCCCeS. We are in the attitude of the man in the Interpreter1! bonsai who raked in the solid Sticks and dust and troubled himself lull little about the gi\er of invisible ?tow us over? head. Amoni? all types of Americano aren* member but one man whose condition was such that he could afford to make a Thanks* giving day of the whole year, ll? was a country physician, not a success ful man in any sense; his old college chums, when reckoning over tin ii* number, always dubbed him "poor " old s?th." One of them is a millionaire in Wall-sl.: he asked Beth up from his village, to visit him a few years ago, aud was __>tou ished to eee how keenly the doctor enjoyed hfa luxury, and exulted in it. He knew the flaa points of every horse in the stables better than their owner, pored by the hour over kg. rare editions, or sat wiapp ??! in delight before the one or two good paintings m the library. The rich man had never known what juica was in bis grapes until he saw Seth tasting it. He expressed the wish, in some vague way at parting, that the grapes were Seth's also. " Yes, I like this kind of life," he said ; " bot " it hasn't happened to come in my way;* and went oft buoyantly to his shabby shop and bare house as to fresh ti? Ids and pastures at rich as those he left. Anota-. ? of his claaa. tii:it??s is a leading politician; held indeed the fortunes of his party in his handa for more than a year. He knows his respon. sibility ; that knowledge aud the enormotu work he docs have told terribly on his braia and nervous system. But he always hiw?*time to read Scth's letters on the politic? of hi? county. They concerned the election of _ sheriff or a town scavenger perhaps, but wet. so full of zeal and _igb.fa_.t- in " the triumph '? of the right," that they sounded like a trum? pet blown from a great bight. Other doctors soon grow used and hackneyed to their trade. both was not a skillful physi? cian, his brain was. of too poor a quality for that, but his work was always as new, as alive to hi ni as on the first day he begaa it; he went out every morning feeling .hat the happiness of many a life depended upon his day's work, that death was but a step below his path and God close overhead. It wits this very certainty t' ?it made everything in the world strong ami full of meaning to* this commonplace man. Nobody in the village was as zealous a friend, as hot an advocate; if he want a-ntittiug or lishing, ho found no end of fun when yotiux men were bored ; nobody was so full of hobbies, of plans for improve imnt of the village, the State, the country. Check, defeat, tramp on him as you might, he rose anger, exultait; he had a new plan ready m half an hour. Id short, this man had l>eea denied talent, wealth, and success, and had brought only one gift from the immortal god. to lighten his dull load. It was the faculty of s?-eing the world in its freshness ami real meaning, of takiiii" life at its bight and ?flower. If he was invited to a dinner it was a high festival to him; his host was the soul of boepit ility, the gueatr, hearty friends ami comrades ; and often hit belief mad?? them so. He was never inarnetl, but he had a reverence for all women, and was " I'm-le Beth" to every child in town. Ch? ilis ?leath-brd he used to count over the chil? dren he had known who were gone. " They'11 " be the lirst of my friends to meet me," he would say smiling, as if talking of a long holi? day, ami those who saw his face after death, with the glad smile upon it. wen sine that the children had met him, utid that he was among Lis friends.
