The only safety General ITahone en
joys against Ben Hill's inkstand is the
fact that the great Virginian is not as
good a target for the inkstand practice
as was the unfortunate and ill-starred
Yancey.
The Xew York World cannot under
stand how any party can desire the co
operation of General Mahone. Ask Ben
Hill. The fact is, the General is a very
sour grape, just now, in the opinion of the
Bourbon fox.
Tim indignation of the Bourbons be
cause General Mahone refused to sell out
to them and thereby betray his IJeadjus
ter constituents black and white, Demo
cratic and Republican is very entertain
ing to the bystanders.
Senator Hill owes his place to the Re
publican voters of Georgia. But they have
now become too contemptible and power
less by long oppression to be worth con
sideration from the high party standpoint
taken bv the Senator.

A max in Chicago is to astonish a
credulous world by going without food
for forty-two days. But if he is to have
Chicago water to drink the sacrifice will be
impaired by the knowledge that Chicago
water is often as nutritious as fish chow
der. The new Senator from Virginia will
soon get accustomed to bringing theBemo
cratie donkey to a kindly acceptance of
the harness. He is only playful, not
vicious. Experienced Republican Sena
tors are ready to hitch him up and drive
oiTat a moment's notice.
Bex Hill was not always the good
Democrat he claims to be to-day. In
1870, at Governor Bullock's banquet,
given in honor of Hon. Columbus Delano,
at Atlanta, Mr. Hill, in a neat little
speech, declared that if he ever was a
Democrat he " never went to be."
The eight-hour law of 1S5S was en
forced by orders of President Grant,issued
in 1669 and 1872, until 1S77. It is a cheat
for a law to be passed to please working
men, and then evaded to please some
body else. We hope the administration
will enforce the law until it is repealed.
It will presently become an axiom re
lating to good manners that an unsup
ported attack on a man's character is an
ultimate benefit to him. An instance in
point is that of Hon. Stanley Matthews,
upon whom malevolence has exhausted
itself, only to raise him in public esteem.

many noble deeds, has received from the

Government.
Our River Front to the Front.
Again the dismal subject of the infer
nal flats in front of our city has been
agitated this time by Senator Ransom,
of North Carolina, in the form of a Senate
resolution that the Goimnittee on Com
merce be instructed " to inquire into the
condition of the Potomac River front of
the city of "Washington and of the navi
gability of said river, the effect of bridges
across the same upon navigation, floods
and health of the city, and report at the
next session of the Senate what steps, if
anj', ought, in its opinion, to be taken in
reference thereto," &c.
We can hardly believe that any infor
mation is necessary in response to the
first part of the resolution. The condi
tion of the Potomac River front is already
well enough known. In any ordinary
stage of water there is a channel shifting
around of varying depth, and on its mar
gins great stretches of ooze and mud. If
old Charon ever finds the near bank of
the Styx in such a condition as is " the
Potomac River front of the city of Wash
ington" he will throw up his license and
sell Ms boat. As to the naviga
bility of said river, the skillful throw
ing of the lead enables the bold
navigator bound for Georgetown to
feel his way along the so-called chan
nel to his destination. As to the effect
of bridges across the river, it is scenic and
grand to a degree seldom witnessed on
this continent. The bridge is a gigantic
and thoroughly constructed dam, and
if the river cannot get through it, why
then it can go around by the way of
Pennsylvania avenue. The effect of the
bridge upon the health of the citj' cannot
well be estimated until the close of the
present year; but there is no reason to
doubt that the floods in the city caused
last month by the . Long Bridge
across the Potomac will deal death
and destruction among the people
in the southern portion of the
city to an extent most beneficial to un
dertakers and cemetery associations.
As to the reporting of "steps, if any,"
necessary to be taken, let us hope that
the Committee on Commerce maybe able
to add one more proposition to
the many which have gone before,
and that from them all Congress may
be able to give the matter such a vigor
ous overhauling that after it adjourns the
Senate may feel called upon again, in an
extra executive session, to adopt a reso
lution calling for more information and
more advice as to steps, if any, that may J
be deemed necessary to abate the nasty,
inodorous, slimy, noxious nuisance now
under the nose of Congress and the citi
zens of and visitors to Washington.
Influence.
Considered as an abstract proposition,
influence is a curious thing. It begins
early in life to have its effect on tho in
dividual and never ends its mission until
he lays down his burden at the doorway
of another world, with a last appeal for
influence to give him a good place in the
higher sphere. But for our present con
sideration the influence of man upon his
fellow is worth a moment's thought. One
who thinks of tho effect that little things
or acts have in their relations to events
which follow is staggered by the possi
bilities suggested. Looking back over our
lives we see that the' were not moulded
by our intentions so much as by the in
fluences brought to bear upon us. And
that in our present condition, what
ever it may be, we are sup
ported by influences not of our
own choosing, nor of our choice, perhaps,
but of a kind that have come to us and
taken possession, notwithstanding our
efforts to avoid them or to use others.
Influence is abroad in the world a grent
power; a relation so comprehensive as to
take in all human thoughts, acts, motives,
surroundings, and sensibilities. A word,
a motion, even passivity itself, has its in
fluence on our fellows and on ourselves.
We cannot live without giving and re
ceiving influence from moment to mo
ment It exists not only in every human
being, but in everv thing; it appeals
through our sensibilities in every direc
tion, and from every source open to our
senses. In a word, influence moves the
world. But we did not propose to make
this a philosophic inquiry. A certain
gross (or more than gross) form of influ
ence is brought to bear just now upon
certain individuals having favors to be
stow upon poor humanity. It is not per
tinent to the inquiry to state, though
true, that they in turn have influences to
beseech. But it is singular to observe
how influence is made a matter of
barter and trade among men. How it
is recognized among them as a valuable
force, ministering to hard necessity.
How they buy and sell it, trading with
like coin in larger or smaller denomina
tions. A big office retails for a dozen
small ones they are changed into it, so
to speak; and rice rasa, a dozen or twenty
small ones buy a large one. Influence is
the best commodity in the market. And,
after all, its use offers a legitimate traffic
which nature itself indorses. It is the
custom for some to ridicule it, while at the
same time they practice it, for they can
not do otherwise. But the sensible man
recognizes its value, and it is fair property
for him to use in a fair way. But there
is a counterfeit as well as a genuine influ
ence current. The latter is coined of
hypocrisy, and is put into use by deceit.
That there is much of this coin afloat
cannot be denied, while it is equally true
that the honest article has a genuine
ring, and no man who is so happy as to
possess it need be ashamed to put it forth.
It is the coinage of his good works.
The Organization of the Senate.
The artful manner in which Senator
Hill, of Georgia, succeeded in finding out
wno ana wnat lienerai Manone was on
Monday cooled the ardor of his side of
the house very much. The question of
the "constitutional majority" being
settled, the question remains as
to how long the Senate must
wait. The temporary majority will
not, it is understood, cause an-delay after
the actual majority shall be present in the
Senate Chamber. Senators Cameron, of
Wisconsin, and McDill, of Iowa, being in
their seats, it remains only for General
Edgerton, of Minnesota, to arrive and for
Mr. Frye's election to be recognized by
the Senate. General Edgerton will ar
rive this evening. To-morrow the Senate
will lack but one member, that one being
the Senator from Maine. Mr. Frye was
chosen yesterday by each branch of the
Maine Legislature, and to-day, in joint
convention, the result will "be declared.
His credentials cannot arrive here before
Friday morning. The Democratic side
of the Senate could consent to
his being sworn in to-niorrow in
advance of the arrival of his
credentials, as has been done before.
Through some neglect or delay of tho
State officials of New York in 1873, Sena
tor Conkling's credentials had not arrived
on the 4th of March, but the Senate un
hesitatingly recognized the current his
tory of the day, and, acting 'upon its
knowledge that the Senator had been
elected, unanimously ordered the oath to
be administered to him. If this prece
dent is followed the Senate will be full
to-morrow, and the work of organization
will proceed. If the forms shall all be in
sisted on, then Friday will be the day.
All will agree that the possibilities of
the use of electricity in the economy of hu
man affaire are singularly promising. As
a field for scientific inquiry and experi
ment it is peculiar and full of wonderful
possibilities. A congress of electricians
is to'bc held in Paris on the loth of Sep
tember, in which our Nation was invited
to participate by delegates. But the Con
gress of failures, which passed out of exist
ence March 4, numbers among its other
sins of omission the passage of any act or
appropriation for the purpose of represen
tation at this momentous scientific meet
ing. It is un derstood that private enter
prise will bridge over the delinquencies
of the Government.
Russian serfdom dates back to 1601,
when, by a ukase, the serfs were deprived
of their rights to move at will from mas
ter to master. They were attached to the
soil, which they could not leave without
the consent of their masters ; neither had
the latter the power to dispose of serfs
without the land. Even then their con
dition was somewhat better than that of
the Irish, who (practically) cannot leave
their native bogs, though these can be
sold from them. On March 17, 18G1, the
late Czar issued an imperial manifesto
providing for emancipation. The num
ber of serfs thus liberated was 22,000,000.
The Russian Church agrees with other
branches of the Greek church in doc
trine, differing only in administration.
The church is divided into fifty-two dio
ceses. The church service is performed
in the old Slavic language. Sermons, un
til recently, were rare, but are now
preached each Sunday. Every "Russian
is obliged to take the sacrament once a
year. Catholics and Protestants are
equally admissible to the highest offices
in the government.
South Carolixa Republicans are now
being harassed and committed to jail for
no offense, save that they persist in testi
fying to frauds in the election contest of
Lee vs. Richardson. A private letterfrom
that State conveys the intelligence that
Judge Lee's witnesses are being arrested
on trumped up charges, with a view to in
timidating and making afraid others who
design testifying to ballot-box stuffing and
tissue-ballot frauds.
Henry George, who has become so
widely known as to insure anything from
his pen an extensive hearing, has written
a treatise, which will soon be published,
entitled "The Irish Land Question What
It Involves, and How Alone It Can be
Settled." Mr. George is an apostle of the
people, and came prominently into no
tice several years since by his " Progress
and Poverty."
The International Silver Conference is
to be held at Paris on the 19th proximo.
It will without doubt lead to the estab

satisfy all the world except England, and
she will be unable, even with spasmodic
help from this side the ocean, to long re
sist tho general opinion of mankind.
The New York World is informed that
its advice came the day after the fair.

Ex-Secretary Sehtirz and Mr. Gilmore.
To Vie Editor of The Republican:
Permit me first to thank you for the
editorial iu thi morning's National RerUBUCAN
upon " Attorneys in the Departments," and then
to say a few words in regard to my suit against Mr.
Carl Schnrz, late Secretary of the Interior, upon
which your editorial was based. When the charge
was first made against me, through the agency of
one of my discharged employees, that I bad bribed
a clerk in the Land Office, I at once entered an
emphatic denial and asked Ibr an investigation.
Secretary Schurz appointed a commission, and or
dered the evidence taken before it. Of that evi
dence, the findings of the commission, and the let
ter of disbarral of the Secretary I have certified
copies printed, one of which I hand you with thfc.
You will sec that there is no testimony
which woidd have been accepted by any
court or jury to establish tho charge. Even
the commission, organized to convict, did not so
find or report. It said: " In conclusion, the board
have the honor to report that, while finding money
was paid by C. D. Gilmore to F. O. Ball (the clerk
whom I was charged with bribing), not only in
1873, but previously, under circumstances which
forbid us to believe that any loan was intended,
we arc glad to be able to state that, so far as we
can discover, no injurious fraud has been prac
ticed upon the material interests of the Govern
ment by allowing improper (Jaiin-s ; but that the
transaction has been contined to the payment and
receipt of moneys for official services m'tlie line of
duty claimed by Mr. Ball to have been done a
extra work and outside the ordinary and usual
office hours." Even this finding was. not justified
by the evidence. The testimony of myclfaud
others established the fact that Mr. F. O. Ball came
to me in great distress, and that I at several differ
ent tinies loaned him money, the greater part of
which he returned, andthatin a spirit of gratitude
he worked outside of office liours to hurry up
not my business alone, but all that came before
him in its regular order, thus expediting cases of
mine in the same ratio that he did those of others.
The charge against mo was " bribing aclcrk in the
Land Office." The board, appointed by Mr.Schurz,
failed to find any evidence to sustnin'the charge,
except that of my discharged clerk, whom I pro
posed, but was not permitted to. prove Here
follow charges against the clerk. Di this commu
nity, where I have lived and been in business six
teen years, no one who knows me will believe that
I did anything dishonorable or wrong, but among
strangers to both of us the action ot the late Secre
tary mightplaceanimputationuponmy character.
It could not where both are known. The arbitrary
and illegal action of Mr. Schurz confiscated
several hundred thousand dollars' worth of my
property, and in that fact may be found the mo
tive for his action. I was the representative in
the different executive departments of 47,000
clients, whose claims aggregated many millions of
dollars, and I was reputed to be a man of propcrtr,
and therefore a proper subject to be bled or blaclc
mailedby some of the impecunious friends of the
late Secretary. Directly after my disbarment a
man sent to me and offered for a conditional fee of
S-20,000 to have me restored. 1 refused his offer. In
a few weeks this offer was renewed, the price being
S1T,000. Still later, and not long before the Secrctary
rctired from office, the price was reduced to S-5,000.
Whether any of the parties could have carried out
the contracts they proposed I do not know. None
of them asked for any pay except upon the con
tingency ot success, and one of them bolds a Gov
ernment position by the appointment of Secretary
Schurz. I was charged with bribing a clerk. The
law provides a punishment for that crime, and
prescribes the mode in which the guilty party shall
be tried. No effort was made t enforce the law
against me. Of one thing you may rest assured
the case against Mr. Schnrz will be brought to
trial : not that I ever expect to recover an equiva
lent for the damages I have sustained, but because
I intend to vindicate mytelf and set at rest bv the
decision of the highestlegal tribunal of the coun
try whether "a man clothed with a little brief
authority" can violate the rights of a citizen and
confiscate his property without punishment.
I shall leave to others the discussion as to the
legal aspects of the question, aud ask that you pub
lish this as a personal vindication of myself from
the odium which would justly attach to a legal and
proper disbarral of an attorney. Very respectfully,
CHARLES D. GILMORE.
abetter from Representative DcscndorC
To Vie Editor of Tin Eepublican:
I find in your editorial columns this
morning an article from which the following is an
extract:
A WORD TO VIRGINIA REPUBLICAN COSORESsMSN.
It is said that one or both of the Virginia Re
publican Congressmen will turn Democrats be
cause Senator Mahone refuses to act with the
Bourbons of the Senate. They are reported as
having threatened to vote with the Democrats on
the organization of the nouse if Senator Mahone
votes with the Republicans in the organization of
the Senate.
Speaking for myself. "I have never said any
thing which could, by implication or inference, be
tortured into such, a statement. I am gratified
that Senator .Mahone, exercising the independence
and nerve which are characteristic of him, voted
with the Republicans in the Senate yesterday, and
hope that he will coutinue to do so. I recognize
tho importance of a Republican control of the
committees of the Senate, and ItaTC said stall
times that ILoped he would act with theRepubli
cans.andeventuallycome, with his friends. Into the
Republican party. A Republican from the organi
zation of the National Republican party, I shall
not be driven from it because Senator Mahone has
concluded that the Bourbon Democracy is no
longer the party for him to act with, and chooses
to vote with tho Republicans in the Senate. I
shall be found always on the ride of the Republi
can party, and, while I may differ with other good
Republicans as to the proper policy to be pursued
in Virginia, I am willing to concede to them, what
I always demand for myself, credit Tor honesty of
purpose and a desire for the success of the Repub
lican cause, very truiv yours,
JOHN F. DEZENDORF.
We publish the foregoing with muci satisfac
tion. We hope Mr. Dezendorf will be able to sec
what seems to us so clear, that a Republican ticket
in Virginia this year means Bourbon Democratic
success. He knows that General Mahone and his
followers are not Republicansand will not support
a Republican ticket, but they are sonud and true
on all the great questions involvingpolitical rights,
education, and national primacy.

To the Editor of The Etpullicaii :
Low well developed since yesterday,
and ha taken an immediate northeast direction
as It advanced eastward. So it is now on quite a
high Hue of latitude, and seems to be working
higher up as it advances eastward. Warm weather
for tho next few days. The centre of low will
probably pass the meridian of Washington on the
17th. Now it look3 very much as though it would
pass so far to the north not to cause much or a
blorm here. I. P. N.-
THE HEW JERUSALEM.
jpocfrlne of the Snedcnborslnn Charch
Explained.
A correspondent, who signs himself " J
IL S.," sendsus the following: " With reference to
the article which appeared in Tub Retubucan of
ilouday, under the caption of 'The New Jerusa
lem,' and in view of the interest which has proba
bly "been awakened in the public mind by the en
trance ofthe Rev.3rr.Kin into that communion to
learn something of the doctrines of the church,
you will perhaps be gratified to publish the follow
ing brief statement respecting the leading views
held by New Church people: The fundamental
doctrine of the New Church is that In the Lord
Jesus Christ resides the trinity of Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit, in tho same manner as there is with
mau the indwelling spirit or soul, the natural body
inclosing it, and a sphere of influence proceeding
from these two. Previous to the incarnation there
was no Son ; neither was there a Holy Spirit, as it
is said in the Word : 'The Holy Spirit was not yet,
because JeMis was not yet glorified.' The incarna
tion consisted in the assumption by Jehovah ofthe
human form in the person of Jesus of Nazareth.
Thi3 natural body was gradually made divine, or
glorified, until at lost all materiality was lost,
AND IT BECAME STIKIT,
and one with the indwelling divine, and is now
the abiding tabernacle of deity. Hence onr Lord
left nothing in the sepulchre, but rose with all His
parts glorified or deified. At the time ofthe advent,
men for ages bad been spiritually declining, until
the lowest limit was reached, and the devils of
hell were actually taking complete possession of
them, as recorded in Holy Writ; and unless the
Redeemer had come all would have been totally
lost. ' God out of Christ is a consuming fire.'
Therefore Jehovah, as He is iu His essence, conld
not approach the devils in hell and reduce them
to order; but by the assumption of a glorified
human form and passage through the world of
spirits" He conld do so. Neither could lie have
communed with man, for the brightness of His
presence would have deprived man of all con
scious life. 'God -was in Christ reconciling the
world to Himself;" and a sacrifice of one God was
not made to appease the wrath of another, and
thereby reconcile the latter to mankind. The pas
sion of the cross was the last act in the process of
making the human derived from Mary a part of
the internal divine. Our Lord appears in the
heavens as a sun, and from Him proceed spiritual
heat and light, corresponding to tho heat and
light emitted by the sun ofthe natural world ; and
this; proceeding divine, termed the Holy Spirit,
enters man as imperceptibly as do the rays of the
sun into vegetation. This proceeding divine is in
all-men, for ' the light sbineth in darkness.and the
darkness comprehendeth itnot;' but, like
THE GENTLE, ALL-TOCBBACIXG SUNLIGHT,
which fills aud animates our natural universe,
raises some into the life of the angels, because of
their receptivity, and In others It is received as is the
sun's rays by muk and noxious vegetation; but It
is the same generous sun which shines upon all
flower and weed alike. Unless, therefore, man
opens the door and permits the warm fountain of
life to enter in its fullness, and co-operates with
the divine by shunning evils as sin against God,
he lives contrary to the law of his being and op
posed to God, and.Tipon death, voluntarily enters
into the society ofthe evil, because like seeks like,
and he cannot endure the presence of the good
and the true. Hell has not been formed by any
arbitrary dicta, but is the result of a law corre
sponding to the well-recognized law of affinity.
Hell has been formed by vast bodies of men con
sociating and Hving a similar existence in the
world of spirit which they had followed in the
natural, for immediately upon death each indi
vidual seeks the society of those, good or evil, who
are in a like state with himself; and this he does
most freely, because the life of Heaven is to him
intolerable anguish, and it is a merciful dispensa
tion ofthe Divine Providence that he is permitted
to do this. There is no fallen angel who is lord of
the infernal regions nor any abode of fire and
brimstone.
MAN, UPON DEATIT, ENTERS THE WOULD
of spirits which is intermediate between heaven
and hell, and Is called Hades. Here, if the ten
dency has been good, he loses all disposition to
cviLJuid connects himself witli the good; but if,
on the other hand, his natural disposition has been
evil, he is divested of every particle of goodness,
and devotes himself to the pursuit of that which is
evil. ' To him that hath shall be given, and he
shall have more abundantly ; but to him that hath
not shall be taken away even that which he hath.'
In the other world a spirit must be entirely in good
or entirely in evil, for the unity of heaven and hell
both depend on this law. Within the Word is con
tained a spiritual sense, which reconciles all-'thc
apparent defects, inconsistencies and contradic
tions of the letter, and which is the life of the
Word.
THE SECOND COJIIXG OF OUR LORD
consists not in some grand scenic display in the
firmament, but iu the unfolding of the internal
signification of the sacred Scriptures. Jesus came
as the word and is the word; conseqnently, his
coming in the clouds of Heaven means the revela
tion of divine truth from Heaven (given through
Swedenborg) which at first would be misty and not
clearly perceived, but would grow brighter and
brighter and clearer and clearer with time. The
reason thi"! internal sensehns not been discovered
before is because men were not prepared for it and
sufficiently spiritualized to receive it. Educa
tion must become general first and liberty every
where prevail. This second coming took place
some 12-" years ago, andhasbecn becoming intenser
every day since. The spirit of inquiry everywhere
prevailing is due to it, and the theological systems
of the past are being overthrown gradually by it.
Saving faith is not an acknowledgment of doc
trine, but a life of use.
"I have not said one-half enough respecting this
beautiful, philosophical, aud elevating faith,
which makes God abeing of love and wisdom, and
not a remorseless tyrant : which dissipates all the
horrid, barbarous, materialistic notions, which are
the outgrowth of the middle nges, when the true
doctrine was lost. Many other points might be
touched upon, but space will not permit, No such
doctrine as three gods in one god, vicarious atone
ment, a general resurrection, predestination, elec
tion, and a host of others are known to the New
Church, but ouly that which is beautiful and har
monious." NATIVE AND FOREIGN.

Sottlti Carolina Republicans nt SToiee.
Soinrnn, S. C. March 12, 1881.
To the Editor of TheEfpuV.ican:
Judge Samuel Lee arrived, in town
yesterday, having come from Washington, where
ho woj In attendance on theinauguration of Presi
dent Garfield. Last evening a large concourse of
Republicans, headed by a brass band, serenaded
the Judge at his residence, ne appeared, and was
greatcd with deafening applause. In on eloquent
address he commented upon tho manly words of
President Garfield, the stalwart character of his
Cabinet, and described the magnificent display on
the 4th of March. His account of tho friendly
feeling and determination of Northern Repub
licans to assist ns of tho South in our struggle to
enjoy the rights and privileges of American citi
zens, against the opposition of onr Democratic
enemies.wjis received with unbounded enthusiasm.
A striking incident ofthe evening was the men
tion pf Robert T.Lincoln as one of the Cabinet,
w hose rtKpio was balled with long and loud cheers.
The new a"a'nvini5tTation has renewed our hope.
We trust thatuic noble words of Mr. Garfield may
be followed by a rigid enforcement of the law.
