Special Correnondenee of The Chieafjo Tribune,
Boston, April 20.-Humley evening, tho 18th,
when tho lights sudden!.- Hashed out from tho
atccplo and belfry of tho famous old Christ
Church. In commemoration of tho signal-lights
that Paul novero cauecd to bo placed there lUO
years ago, oven tho roost uncnthuslaslio Boa
tonlao felt a little thrill along bis well-regulated
puleos. Thoio had boon services duriug tbo
day, and the rusty old bolls had rung out tbolr
ohimes ; and tho Star-Spangled Banner business,
and tho floral decorations,—the hot the gift of
faul hbvebe’s grandson,—
had brought out a good many sight-seeing
strangns; but it remained for the evening’s
display iu tho old steeple nod belfry to stir.tho
ordinary Bostonian heart into anything like en
joyment. But we can't say -that en
thusiasm was Jacking after all In tho Hob.
when wo consider tho enormous expenditure
of time and money that has • gone to complete
these centennial arrangements. In Just this
one matter of Uirist Church, consider tho under
taking of tolling up that old-fashlodcd, narrow,
winding stairway, past tho boifry-lowor, into the
highest attainable point of tbo church,—tho
small chamber in tho steeple,—with four largo
tanks of oxygon and hydrogerf. Aud this was
only a portion of too illuminating miracle. In
Other parts of tbo spire, lamps and lanterns wero
employed; and Samuel Newman—tho son of tho
very sexton who 100 years ago. at Paul Bovoro’s
order, climbod with such difficulty Into tho then
stairless belfry to hang oat thoso famous
signal-lights, that warned tho little waiting
band across the * fivet* of tho
doings,—Samuel Newman, on the urcsont occa
sion, is tho one who hangs out of tbo little win
dow tbo two lights in the same place where his
father hung them a century since. As those
lamps wore swung out, aud at the same mo-;
moot the calcium-lights 'of tho steeple flashed
out, tho crowd below broke Into a prolonged and
excited cheer. During tho evening, curious vis
itors, on tho payment of a small admittance-fee.
wero admitted ib9tho b-ilfry and ytecplo, that
they might look across upon tho great pano
rama of all the outlying towns within sight of
iho Charles Ilivcr, and fancy, as they looked,
that they were back In those eld days,
When Paul Rsvorfl went riding down,
Across the city, across the town.
Long and long boforo too time that the exor
cises within tho church that ovflniug were an
nounced to begin, floor and galleries were com
pletely tilled with the crowd s end tho stress of
those who waited outside was so great that a
squad of mounted police, and ropes stretched
across tho street, woio resorted to as a moans of
safety. Perhaps tho moei impressive l part of
tho exercises was when tho Rector pf tbo ohnroh
announced that Mr. Newman, tho sou of the
Robert Newman,
BUXTON OP THE ClttJDcn ONE HUNDRED TEARS AGO,
accompanied by tbo present sexton, Mr. Carroll,
would bang out tho lights in the belfry. The
great audience at this announcement burst into
a hearty cheer, and rose on masse to look at the
heto of the hour—who is an old man. 7J years of
ago— ho passed down aisle with Mr. Car
roll, healing the lanterns.
None of the exercises In Lcrlngton or Con
cord on duuday had quite the Uavor of this Ctt l
ous Chriat-Church commemoration sorv.ee. Rut,
tbo next day, tho llHh. Boston •* stopped down
and out," and old Lexington and Concord vied
with each olher with a certain lino patriotic Jeal
ousy. Evorywhoio that llugsctmld bohuhg, or
draped, or tied, they wore to bo found j until, at
a little distance, the streets looked like a vast
bod of red, wntlo, and blue flowers. Tbo big
pavlUou-tcnt was not a very comfortable place
in tho raw weather, cither lor speech-making or
dinner-eating; and, despite the attempt at en
thusiasm, there was the chill of tho day over ev
erything.

tho grumbling remarks that the blue-nosed,

into such close company, began to bo under

between Noitb and South at the present time, a
little breeze of patriotic ardor seemed to flame
up for a few moments.
Rut, If It was Arctic weather during the sun
shiny day, what was it in the evening, when
TUB PAVtLION WAS TORNBO INTO A UALL-ROOM ?
During the day, through all the speech-mak

tho sun for a friendly ally ; but, in the evening,
wbat rheumatic hints to tho older ones, what
neuialgio spasms to younger, did nub that

of doors is always the prince of humbugs in tho
balmiest of balmy weather : but what was it in
this Docombcrish air ? A farce of tho broadest.
There always will ho a flaw somewhere In such
vast arrangements; but it does seem that. In
view of all the uncertain, cheating vfigarios that
accompany' every Now England spring,
Somebody might havo known bettor than
to have planned this pavilion non

with fur cloaks ; pretty little faces, that aught

Council Bluffs, la., April 21.—1n this corre
spondence, last winter, I gavo a full history—as
full as I could make it hi one letter—of tho
UNION PACIFIC TUANSFEIt lUDItOOLIO.
Tho view I took of it was, that tho public at largo
were more interested in a speedy Battlement of
tho terminus question than were either Council
Bluffs or Omaha. 1 have watched with pcculigr
interest the travel over the trunk linos of lowa
to tide point, within tho past few weeks. Tho
season has come whou emigrants form the largo
majority of those who use tho Union Pacific ami
tho lowa railroads for travel. Ile.-onlly, In two
days, 1,000 emigrants wont westward
from this point. That ie, they woro
landed, with their bnggago, on this
side of tho river, transferred to the cars and car
-1 ried across, deposited in tho emigrant-house of
iho Union Paciflo llailroad Company, and thoro
detained until the emigrant train was made up
in the afternoon. The evil is not in tbo deten
tion. That would occur, doubtless, woro 000
change only necessary. It is in this: The law
requites tbo Company to operate its road as one
continuous lino to its eastern terminus as fixed
by tho proclamation of President Lincoln. For
those 1,000 passengers, for a distance of trans
portation of less than 2 miles, tho Company
tolled SSOO, or 50 cents for each passenger. Upon
tho emigrant c’.a-s this is a heavy lax, became
everybody knows, who knows anything about a
now country, that those who are iußoaichof
now homos aud cheap lands In tho Western
States. and Territories are in no condition to
waste their money In extoitiouato charges for
transportation. Any 000 who has watched this
class on route, with their swarms of chil
dren, their enormous Impcdamonta, tho r baste,
and their ignorance of our modes and language,
can appreciate their auxicty and annoyance at
being compelled to make a double transfer at
breocli-loadlng-rUlo tango. Happily, those things
will soon end. At the last term of the United
Slates Circuit Court at Dcs Moines, Judge Dil
lon took the whole question under advisement;
oud woaro advised hero that, at tho term com
mencing on tho 10th of May, ho will tender his
decision. Tho actual point is on mandamus to
compel the Union Pacific to opora'e Us road to
this side of tho river as nno continuous line.
Under tho act of Congress relating to appeals
from*, tho United Slates Circuit Court to the
United States Supremo Court, no appeal can bo
taken whore tho amount iu controversy does not
rise to tho sum of $2,000. In this case thoro ie
no amount in controversy, but it is simply a
question of duty under the law; and
it is tho opinion of tho soundest and
moat eminent lawyers of tho State, that
tho party woietod lu Judge Dllloi.'e forum wih
bo without any relief iu tho Appellate Conti.
Lobbyists from both 9 m& ha and Council Bluffs
have spent several winters in Washington to ob
tain such'legislation as would terminate tho sub
pouno. lowa succeeded ir. getting Congical to
confer Jurisdiction upon tbo Circuit Court in
mandamus cases os applicable to tho Union Pa
cific llaihoad Company, and the present suit is
ah outgrowth of that legislation. lowa also se
cured a law which makes it a penal offense for
tho officers of the road to neglect their duty lu
operating the road to its eastern terminus. As
a consequence of this, they havo alt been indict
ed by the Qraud Jury of tho United States Dis
trict Court for this Division. Their trial was
lixod for tho March term; hut, owing to its
brevity! abddutie? calling Judge Loro elsewhere,
it'was postponed.
In response to a feeling of enterprise, a vcor
ago tho business men of this city oigauizoU an

It Is neither a Bonn! of Trade, nor a Jockey

poked of men or all occupations and professions,
who havo tho interest of the city at heart, and
who are willing to put tbolr shoulders to tho

to tho growth Cud prosperity of Council Bluffs,
and oi Western lowa. A floe suite of rooms,
handsomely furnished, have been provided, and
a visitor to Council Bluffs has a place to which
lie can go with any member at ah hours of the

stone’s lines:
Whoo'ar has traveled life’s dull round,

Tho warmest welcome at so tun.
In the same spirit tho members of the “Ex

Bluffs. It is free from tbo bustle and rage of ordi
nary hotel-life. You can putyour feet on the fend

criticise Us wrong oofs, to wont for Us reforma

the right way, as any other private soldier in Us
ranks. lam something of a partisan, but not a
blind one. Ido not oloao my eyes to Urn fact
which tho history of tho rise and fall of all par
ties in this country bus amply demonstrated, that
tho people regard all political organizations as
merely tho moans to an cud,—tho end being to

A WISE AND ECONOMIC ADMINI3TD AVION
of tbo Qovenluiont,—and lhat when any party,
for any cause, fails to carry out this beneficent
object, they desert It, ami organize themselves
into another that will accomplish their wishes.
When a party becomes effete, iucauablo of vigor
ous and healthy action, or extravagant ami cor*
nut, recreant to. its pledges ami regatdices of
tho people's wauls—then the day of its Anal exit,
is not far away. A patty cannot lire upon its
piet record any raoi'o than a man can live upon
tho food ho consumed years before. The bright*
osl page that will over adorn American history
will bo that which records the glorious achieve
ments of abolishing slavery, ciushing tho most
gigantic rebellion the world over saw, and saving
the life of one of tho greatest natlouo on earth.
Tho baptism which the Ilepublican party receiv
ed in the Civil War was of both blood and lire,
and no wonder that tho splendor of military
gfbry that mado a halo about its name,
should attract (ho gaze and receive tho homaco
and admiration of civilized man tho world over.
Nor is it any wonder that, while it stood as tho
representative of an exalted and noble patriot
ism which had been suddenly awakened in tho
breasts of the people by & terrible exigency In
our national allairs, it should bavocunioiod in
itself thou ..armost sympathies, their grandest
hopes, and their most apalling fears. And in
tho distant future, when tho student of history
pa uses tbo pages which time has written con
cerning tho events of
Mil. LINCOLN’S ADMINISTRATION,
and he feels the importances of those imperish
able acts, his cheeks will glow with an honest
undo as bo remembers that bo, too. is an Amer
ican citlzrn, ami shares iu the rich inheritance
at a united nation and a free people.
*Rut tho Republican party cannot live upon tho
past. It is confronted with tho living issues uf
tho hour, which must bo solved to tho natisfuc
llou uf tho people, ami occoidiug to tho highest
methods of salesmanship, or it must stejulowu
and out, and relinquish its opportunity to rule to
other more fattblul and wiser heads. That tho
party has been guilty of many errors (u tho past
and in tho present, is undoubtedly true; that no
political Organization will over bo perfect as long
as It is simply an aggregation of imperfect l ha
man beings, is also quito as true; but the vola

largo number of voters in must of tho States of

and, as many believe, by the oucinvof every

unteered tbo observation lu one of my former

ing of tbo State Convention. Hut lam sorry lo
say that lu that prophecy I was mistaken, or
else another of your correspondents Is out of
bis Utitudo, for I have noticed in Tub Tribune
this weak two dispatches from this city indicat
ing that tbo State Central Committee and others
aro already preparing a “slate" to submit to
the next State Convention. And the lost dis
patch closes with this significant remark t
“ KCVEti IB CUMULATING ABOUT TUB HTATB TO

Now, 1 hope your correspondent was misin
formed, ami that the Chairman of tho State
Central Committee Is not going about tho Stato
onauy such errand; aUnougk tho exceeding
modcatjr of Sir. Koyos has never called forth
especial admiration in any quarter. I fancy
sometimes that Koyos Is innocent of any intent
to overstep tho limits of propriety In such mat
ters. aud that, when he was appointed to his
present position, be firmly believed It to bo his
prerogative and duty to nominate all State oftl
cera aqd submit tbeir names fur confirmation to
tho Republican State Convention 1 At any rate,
such has boon his custom in the past, and the
truth compels mo to admit that, with few oxcep
tlona, the names that ho has sent In for approval
have been selected from tbe best men In tho
State. Hut notwithstanding bis excellent tasio
iu choosing Slato aud Federal officers, there is
an absurd but wido-apread repugnance among a
Urge number of Republicans to that wav of doing
tho business of the paftv, and they are deter
mined to abolish the system, even if it involves

of transacting all their business, would prove
very popular in the rural districts. 1 am also
persuaded that the rumor.wnich was telegraphed

Des Moines, April 22.— The lowa Htate Brew
ers' Association closed Its sessions laet evening.
About fifty members wero present. The exer
dees were conducted entirely in German.
The most important business was the adoption

check to the prosperity of the country, as well as pro
venting the progrtßelve development of true morality
to Its citizens ; and
WimißAs, We deem these agitations as a hostile
demonstration against the privileges of the individual
tud imrsoual hbeity ; and
Whereas, The Temperance party ascribes to the use
of mall liquors the increase of Immorality, crime, nad
poverty, although they have not been ah.o to

Herbert Spoucur*
It is ratber curious that Aiuotioaus should go
to Frsuco for a popular exposition of Herbert
Spencer. The “ Outline of the Evolution-Phi
losophy," forlhcomiog as the fomth volume of
the “J’opular Science Bones," is nevertheless
from the French of Dr. M. E, Gazelles, trans
lated by tho Ilev. O. B. Frolhlngliam. In mak
ing this summary, the author taken occasion to
protest against the identification of all Pobl
tiviats asof Oompto’a school, since neither Compto
claimed to have originated the Positive method,
nor do the loading Poettinst writers agree with
him la several important particulars. An ap
pendix, written by Prof. E. L. youmans, prom
ises to bo quite as important as the body of the
work, since lie gives a chronological view of tbo
philosopher's literary labors, as showing tbo dfl
volopiueut 0(1 the doctriuo of evolution in Ins
mind. “It was in 1854," ho says, •• as Mr.
Spencer informs mo. while writing tho article
on tho'Nebular Hypothesis.’ that tho doctriuo
01 evolution presented itself as tho basis of a
general system under which all orders of con
crete phenomena should be generalized." A
valuable table gives a cbiouoh'gical bibhegraph
of ins work.
Tho Profile ol lloligloiis Trade*
The Paris oorcospoudont of tho London Jiaibj
Trlegraph writes' to that Journal under date nr
March 80 1 “1 believe it is accepted as an axiom
br political economist# that no penalties or risk
will protect from unlawful rivalry a business
that returns cent per cent on the capital invest
ed. In proof of this dictum they cite the smug
gling of former days, the slave trade, tho imi
taliun of patent pills, and the shame
loss fraud (o Everton toffy. It was not likely,
therefore, that the astounding profits Just now
realized from pilgrimages would long escape the
eye of those who cove; other men’s fortune. A
very striking case was tried at llouou last week.
By Noufcbatel, iu that Diooese, tndre is a cele
brated shrine called Notre Bame du Pardon. It
has lately undertaken each a disastrous comps
tltion with Notre Dame do Hon Hecours that nine
months since * the Archbishop publicly
disavowed it, but to no avid. Pilgrims
still flocked In with their offerings, and
the courts of law were appealed to. Jjy
(heir inquiries wo learn an edifrnlg storr. Notre
Dame du Pardon was Invented and worked (os*
ploito) by a tinman named Fsgnt. Perceiving
his way to an onotmous profit, lie built a dispel,
fitted it up with a colossal Virgin, a cradle in
stone, and several has reliefs representing pas
sages of Bcrimuro. Upon the walls at this time
hang n groat number of ez-votos, attesting the
miiaclee performed. Money-boxes are disposed
where 1 convenient.* Fagot dwells in a collage
beside the chapel, and bo seems to nave made a
very comfortable living out of the alms and the
piety of the faithful. Thus far one cannot eawilv
see how (be tinman, though ho might bo morally
a swindler, had violated any human law. If
people come to his chapel, and find themselves
hotter for the visit, they are surely entitled to
present an honorarium. But the evidence
proved, on one hand, that Fag -t had sold indul
gences: and on the other, Hint ho bad been
granted none to sell. It was attested also that ha
•look money for m uvaincs to his Virgin, which
ho could not perform himself, nor asked any
body cine to peifurm; that he had suspended
enriches on tlio wall, to make lame pilgrims
believe that his statue could work miracles as
welt as the bost: afid that he had circulated
pamphlets representing bis private speculation
to be authorized in due form, and Invidiously
comparing its success with that of Notre Dame
do Bon SeccMirs. • But,’ says the indictment,
‘ neither Fagot’s Virgin nor Ula chapel has boon
consecrated, and the veneration of which (hey
have been objects is absolutelv Illusory. The
pilgrimage, therefore, is established out of
ins own bead. Kvcrytblng proves it to be so,
even the frivato' conduct of Fagot, who
appointed to take care of bis Virgin a female of
dubious morality.* The audacious tinman was
convicted—first, of distributing printed matter
with mt the Prefect’s authority ; second, of ob
taining money by fatro pretenses, notably from
Mmo. Beiiard. who paid him IDO francs for his
inteicesiri'in in the ma'tor of a lawsuit—inter
cession with no earthly powers, of course. And
ho was condemned to 100 francs One and six
months imprisonment. Several other Fagots,
up and down in France, will study this decision,
wuli a view to learn how far they can go on and
keep outside the law."

Tbo greatest excitement has been created in
and around Gluboro by tno pleaching of an
•• Advent Treacher." According to bia teaching,
"grace, and merer, and peace” woe to have
*• ccatcd” on Wednesday lari. Christ is to come
to the earth to-day, and the great fire which is
to consume the earth will lake place m the fall.
Those predictions have bem accented by some
of tbe more ignorant and superstitious’of die
persona living in the vicinity, and many hava/io
mated from ibeir labors in otder to make prep
arations for tbe Judgment J'ay, onoxpecledlv
Bjon.atbmd. The more aor-sible portion of tno
community feel aggneved At hie teaching, and
some have threatened him with bodily barm un
less bo leaves tbe place. In every case in which
these threats have been made tbe preacher lias
caused the arrest of the parlies making them.
Ther have given kail to appear before Justice
Conover for examination on Fndayof this week.
Residents of the town contemplate organizing to
drive him away.
“KNOW THYSELF.”
That groat educator, profound tbiukor, and
vigorous writer, tlcrbot Snonccr, baa wisely said :
" Aa vigorous health ami its accompanying liign
spirit* are larger elements of l}a;'.plnc9rt than
any other things whatever, the leaching how to
maintain them, ia a teaching that yields to no
o.hcr whatever.” Tbla la a-uud sentiment, and
ono great want of the present ago lathe popular
ization of physiological, hygienic, and medical
science. No subject la more practical,—none
cornea nearer home to every man aud woman than
this. “ The People’s Common Sense Medical
Adviser, In li.iin English, or Modldno Simph
lied," by It. V. Pierce, M. D., is a book well cal
culated to supply a manifest want, aud will prove
eminently useful to the masses. It contains
about 900 pages, ia Illustrated with about 200
wood-cuts and fine colored plates,,la printed
upon good paper, and well bound. It la a com
filoto compendium of anatomical, physiological,
ivgtenic, and medical science, and embodies
tbo latest discoveries and improvements hi each
department'. It has been the author’s aim to
make the work instructive to tbo masses, and
hence the use of technical terms has been, aa
far as possible, avoided, and every subject
brought within tbo ea } comprehension of all.
An elevated moral tone pervades the entire book.
While it trcoly discusses, m a scientific manner,
the origin, reproduction, and development of
man, it (10081101 cater to depraved tastes, per
verted passions, or idle curiosity, but treats in a
cliaetfl and thorough manner, all those delicate
physiological subjects, a proper knowledge of
which acquaint* us with tho moans for preserv
ing health, and furnishes Incentives to a higher
and nobler life. Tho author, who la also tbo
publisher ol his work, anticipating avcrylaige
sale for it, has issued 20,000 copies for tho first
edition, and ia thus enabled to oiler it (post
paid) at £1.50 per copy,—a price loss than tho
actual cost of so largo' a book, if published in
only ordinary-sized editions. Tbo largo number
of ©ubsenbers received for it in advance of ita
publication, has voiy nearly exhausted tbo first
edi .ion almost as soon as out, and those desir
ing a copy of it will do well to addicss tbo
author, at Buffalo, ¥., without delav.
