MOONLD. 8slAtont VAONC, of the Senate' has Mtade a strong argument in favor of the repeal of the civil service law. lie believes in the old plan of rewarding honorable service. Parties are neces sary to liberty in a free government, I aid that parties should be rcwcrded by having the offices of the govern ment. The administration *ould not be a Democratin one nutil the officers were Democrats. le was frequently applauded by the galleries, which was evidence that the public appreciated his position. THE following action taken by the Senate on the nomination of a new postmaster at Webster City, Iowa, shows conclusively that the Democrats in a matter of public service consider If above partisanship: The Senate has rejected the nomiina - tion ot the new postmaster at Webster City, Iwa. All the Republicans and all but two or three Democrats voted against him. The report of the com mittee that he secured the appointment partly by representations that his predecessor was an offensive partisan, and that he himself since the appoint ment has been even more active in those things which constitute offensive partisanship than the man he supplant ed, having been an active man in the management of a Democratic news paper, and in addition having found time to go about the country making Democratic speeches. The Democrats found nothing positively objectionable in this but voted for rejection on the grouna that the candidate had not been attending to his business. As will be seen from the above most of the Democratic Senators voted against this nomination on account of the fact that the nominee was an offen sive partisan. Legislation for Labor. The Committee on Labor in Con. gress have introduced the following bill. While they do not consider the bill perfect they think it is a step in the right direction, which may be per fected by subsequent legislation. The following Is the text of the bill: That whenever differences or con troversles arise between common car riers engaged in the transportation of property or passengers, whether said common carriers be private persons or corporations, between ' two or more States of the United Statcs, or within the Territories of the United States, or within the District of Columbia, aid the employees of said common carriers, whioh differences (r controversies may hinder, impede, obstruct, interrupt or aleot such transportation of property or passengers, or when such enployed, or any of them, allege that he or they have beens treated unjustly or oppres sively, either as to wages, hours of labor or otherwise, by such coammon carrier, if upoj a.,writen proposition of either party to a controversy to sub mit theie differences to arbitration the othier party shall acept the p reposi tion, then and~ ini such event the corn mon carrier is hereby authorized to select anid aippoinst one person, ai such employ 6s, as the case may be, to select and appoint anuotheor person, and the two personls tihus selected anmd ap soluted to select a third person1 all three of whom shall be citizenas oti the United States antd wholly impartial anid dlisterested in res pect to such dilblences or conitroversies anud the three persons tihus selecterd and ap pointed shall be0 and they are hsereby created and constituted a board of arbitration with the duties, powers and( prIvileges hereinafter' set forth.

UNDAY HRVION1 AT TOM CAPITOK. low the Sabbath I Observed Among tie Public Men in Washington. Froi the beginning of the govern nent down to the time of the war, ays the New York Herald's Washing on correspondent, there always was a iunday. religious service atthe capitol. rhe House of Representativ is was con idered a national church. The down rall of this custom dates from the introduction of politics into religion. Prior to that hour the chaplains* had been chosen by a johit resolution of the Senate and House, and neither Look final action until the other had agreed upon its nominee. Then the service in each house was held by the Dhaplains alternately. But with the era of the war rose a theory that the chaplain must belong to a certali party. As one party was decidedly l:1 the majority, that 'simply meant that the chaplain must be a Republican. In time it came about that a caucut was held (as Is now done) to agret upon a representative of the Delty, That custom was obnoxious to so many that very few members have since at. tended the halls of Congress early enough to find out what kind of the ology was dispensed. It was felt to b( Republican or Democratic theolog just as the majority might stand wher the. choice of Its dispenser was made, The next step was to choose the chap lains f rom the city pastors. This wai the death knoll to a national place o1 worship. Anxiety to draw large audi ences to their city churches prevented the preachers from going to the Housi of Representatives to dc lver a sermon How different from the beautifil cus. tom of former timesI Meeting the blind chaplain of the House, the Rev Dr. Milburn, this afternoon, I asket him about the matter. "It is as you say," he answered. "] was here forty years ago, during Pres Ident Polk's and a part of Presldeni Pierce's administrations. The Sella tors, Congressmen and Justices of thc Supreme Court were largely repre sonted at the Sunday morning servic4 in the old Hail of Representatives, John Quincy Adams was regularly It his place. 'he services were alwayi unusually impressive. It seems to mi that this would be an excellent custoir to revive." Lost Legs and Arms-.-A Queer Bill. A Washington letter says: "Nobod3 here will speak seriously of the bil Introduced by Col. Frank Wolford, e Kentuck , to grant artificial leg's and arms to Confederate soldiers and sall orA, or their equivalent In money. I is consldered by Democrats from bot North and South aq the Idle diversloi or vagary of an eccentric man. Colone Wolford has many personal friends who admire him for his simplicity, manhood and fine war record, bui there is not a Democrat In Congresi who does not think he made a bad break In lutroducing this bill. This act on the part of the gallant Kentueky Colonel has subjected ~him to no end of disagreeable discussion. The die, onsalon oreatod by ehe-aegiewever, fs )nly serious as far as It relates to the pecullarities of Colonel Wolford. N~oboby, even Colonel W. himself imagines for a moment that the bill will stand any show In the lionse. It will probably never see light again. Nevertheless, the RepubliScans will seize 1)pon1 the bill and include It in heir campaIgn documents as a typical D~emocratic measure, looking t'o the rranting of pecnsions to all Southern icoldiers and sailors. Colonel Wolibrd's lolly is a winidfall to the opposition, md It is chiefly In this regard that Democratic memb~ors regret the Intro luction of the bill." Money for~ the Wendvioks Mongene John Hlolman, of Indiana, wvho hat been engaged in organizing the agen sles for the collection of the Hlend ricks nuoniumen t funmd, reports very favora ble news from all quarters. The yriginal idea. he says, was to try and raise a fund of $100,000. To accom. plishi t his ten t houmsaind agencies were established and an average of ten dol are each was desiredi. T'he contribu blons were to be as ismall as people wanted to give. The time set for the r'e port was the-flrst of A pril, and quite a number of reoporte have alreadly been received from small agencies of from *12 to Sl1j About $5,000 wilt be the result in *hmgton and perhaps as much frol ~iadelphaia ajel tw ice as much fromn 'ev York.

Columbia's population, mietaphort-' cally speaking, podred en thasse into t the Opera House again last uight, all eager to catch the last words that fell from Mr. Aoody's lips and to hear' the sweet symphony that catne fromn Mr. Sankey a voice. As on the pre. ceding night standing roomu was Ini demand. The services were opened by sing lug "Alon the River of Timie We I Glide." Messrs. Bliss and, Sankey i both took part In the vocal exercises. "Christ Rteceiveth Sitfil Men" was next, sung; after which the congrega- I tion was led in prai er by the, Mv. Jae. H. Thornwell. In responso to'a number of requests, Mr. Sankey sang the "Ninety and Nine" with hie ac customed sweetness and expressions. "Ring the Bells of Heaven" was then sung by the whole assemnblage, and Mr. Moody stopped forward and made a short preliminary address before going into the regular sermon. These remarks were made malady in the interest of the Young Mei's'Christian Association, with a view of strength ening the work of this organization and of en listing sympathy in it behalf. lie was strongly in favor of the Y. M. U. A. and, said he, "I want to com mend it to you. It is a great Institu tution and should have your warmest sy piathy. Such tan organization with a nicety afanged place tbr younig men to meet and spend their evenings. I think is needed. Therp should be a well equipped building in this city costing from ten to twenty. thousand dollars, for the use of the f. M. . A. with reading rooms, gymnasium and such like, that would attract and interest the f1oung. Your churches are closed at night through the we but your saloons and places of vice A 47 not. I don't think it, is the love of liquor but that Innate desire for sociability, that attraots young men. They want sone place to spend their evenings and niect their friends, and they'll find it. Business men should take bold of this matter; it's a good i:h .estment. But you say "I costs se 'ething." To be .sure it does; but are not your young, men worth 5 Pend Ing something on? It cost $100,% in Pennsylvania not long ago to hang a yonng manl. Don't you think it much better to pay For saving than hanging hlin? The Y. M. U. A. had been the means of accomplishing great good, and lie hoped it would be upheld here. When he had concluded this little.ta)k lie announced the text. for his farewell sermon Mark, 12th Chapter, part of the 84th verse: "Thou art not far from the kingdom of God." Mr. Moody commenced by saying that tWe men that thought they were I neat-est the kingdom of God in Christ's r day the Pharisees were in fact the farthest from it. They believed in their external devotion, but these are of little consequence. There are a good many here to-night that I believe a are not far from God's kingdom. The l past few nights I've seei it In this hall. I want you to become truly persuaded to-night. Thousands make shipwreck of their souls by trying to compromise i with God. You can t get into His kingdom without making a full, clean swveep. There are onl y t wo roads i this world, dear friends. One leads uip to heaven and the other down to hell. if you are holding on tu any secret sin may ciod help you to give it' up right now. If there are any here to-night who have made up their mids not to become Christians it were better for them never to hear another sermon. The gospel either hardens or softens. That is the teaching of God's word. There are preachers here to-night who have people in their congregation that nothing will move. They have be come so hardened that preachiing has no efrect now upon them. May yen make up your mlinds this hour not to be satisfied by being near the kingdom of God, but may you make up your minds to enter in. My friends, we may never meet again, but I beg, whatever you do, do not miss God'sl kigdom. We bear the cross here for only a little while and lay it downa to1 take upl our crown in ht.aven. Are you going to let, some coqppanions laugh you out of becoming a Christian ? If any one wants to sneer at Cheis-] tianity let them sneer, but I beg you to take your stand for Charist. This brief and disconnected synop sis gives but a faint idea of this mag nificent and feeling discourse. It was listened to with rapt and sincere at tention, the closing sentences were fraught with pathos and touched deep ly the emotions of the vast assemblage. As soon as he finished his Aermon Mr. Moody took his leave from the Opera House, in order that he might go to the inquiry meeting at the Wash $ngtnn Street Church. The Rev. A.
