O'Malley for attempting to bribe a taleamen, end Ber- nard Glandi, Chmrles Granger and Fearne- ard Arnaant for attempting to bribe three different talesrnen. The grand jury, after dwelling upon the evil influence of the Mafia secret society, says : " The condition of affairs in this community as to a certain °lase of violators of the law had reached ettali a state that the law itself was wellotigh powerlree to deal with them, so farmeachiug was their power and influence in the trial of criminal oases.

Last Tuesday an army of caterpillars began moving out of the swamp, and when they reached the streams over which the trestles merry the rails they massed on the railroad, and pro - waded to ones on the trestlee.

AN INSULTING CHITA; sent by an Irreverent Toronto man to the itiordeterial esociation. Toronto men call their oity "Toronto the Good," bat we fear the title is a mienomer In a truly good city there would be mils venial respect for the clergy, and that we regret to see is lacking in Toronto. A wicked man neoned Howell has aotually sent rea insulting; letter to the Toronto elinisteriel Association, containing Aria - tures upon the association's recent deliv- erances on dancing, theatringoiug, eto, Luakily most of tbe minietera dodged the basalt, for the letter was referred to 'a committee, and the committee reported that, ea there was nothing in the letter calling for a reply, it was unneceseary to read it to the aemoiation. We know the letter was insulting, because the seoretniry of the assodation said so, and if any reader of the Titres should be inclined to ocubt hie word, he lean see for himself, for the following is a copy of the letter: To the Members of the Toronto Ministerial Association. Gentmeneee—You were pleased at your last sesszon to decide for ue less fortunate mortals thet cerMpleyieg, theatremoing and dancing are 'magnet eine, for whieh we Should no doubt be humbly thankful. During the disouesion, however, of this momentous question, One of your members neliberately went out of hie wey to ineult the men and wonsen et Toronto by an ira• plied charge of licentiousness and indecency, arid no one of the reverend gentlenien hetet euffileient naanlineee to mend up and pro- test againet the feir fame of our noothers teed Motets, and the morale of men as reepectable as yourselves, being defamed by the vile insinuations) contained in hie remarks and those of other members, This although there were those present who feel as I do about it. Did I belong to the Toronto Minietezial Aeeocj,teion 1 certainly ahould DEMAND AN APOLOGY on betel! of the sex from the men who dared to speak of any woman ae Dr. Par. 8008did on that 000meion. His speech Was a disgrace not only to your aaeociation but to Christianity, and I for one would not have believed it Feasible that swill things would be said of the women of Canada under any oircumstancee, ranoh less under the cloak of religion. This is newt altogether from the gime. tion of the correonsese of your finning. Thet is probably quite right from your point of view, although I totally disagree with you them. But grantiug that you were right, end that no exeeptien oould be taken to the language twed, do you not think that you are witeiing valuable time in discussing such trivial matters when aerions queetions demand your attention ? Are you aware of the fact that girle—as dear to their friends Isfs your own daughters are to you— are being DRIVEN TO LIVES OF SAAAIE by the insufficiency of the miserable pit• tanoe their erapke, ers call wages ? Teat able-bodied men, as sober and induetrions as any of you, tame searched in vain for the ahence to earn sufficient to keep their wives and children from starvation, and that, failing this, they had to steal or eub- else on charity. That women, who were somebody's mother if not ours, are com- pelled to &lave from morning till night making shirts at form cents et dozen, or overalls at fifty cents a dozen, in order to keep body end soul together. Do you eitheMitid.that these thinge, and worse, exiat right here in Toronto? Of °Puree yea do, you can't help but know. Knowing this, do you not think you could spare a little time for their consideration ? So far, your answer to thismnery has been: "The matter is outs of our province; our duty is to make known the glorious truths of the Gospel." 'The poor have ye envoys witla yon." "Whom the Lord lovath he ohesten• mkt," and so on ad infinitum. You may be rightelont it memos to me that there are a few other texts which apply to this ques- tion, and which bring It into your province if you teach Christianity. 'Ali things therefore whatsoever ye would Cost men sleould do unto you do ye even so to thern." "Love one another, even as I have loved you." They are some of the "glorious truths of the Gospel," and yet, if conditions exist which make it impossi. ble for men to live up to them, do they not call for action To REMOVE THOSE CONDITIONS ? Do you really think that Jesus of Nazar- eth, with his great tender heart filled with love for the poor and downtrodden, ever meant to decree that these thiegs should always be? That " Our Father" intended that his children thould have to live by their shame, that they ehould be glad to die—as many are *0.day—rather than keep up the terrible struggle for ex- isteros. You cannot believe it, and, if you do not, is it not your duty to at least make an effort to find out whether the conditions which aro the cause of such misery cannot be changed? I do not mak you to &ocelot they opinions of my own or any one else's, bat to take up the question wish the de. sire to get to the bottom of it, and if you are not afraid to think about it, or too busy to study it, you will come to the con- clusion SIM there is some way of betteriog thing°, and not Providence, but we our- selves are to blame for TIIE }MERV AND POVERTY which exist side by side with wealth and luxury. With all doe deference to your superior wisdom, this appears to be of rather more importance then the enbjeot you so ably discussed. It may not offer the same opportunities for the display of the special talents of the gentleman men- tioned, and might perhaps be an unpopular one with some of younwealtlay worshippers, yet I really think it is worthy of at least passing notice. if make no apology for this letter. It bas not been written on behalf of any society, but simply as my indivi- dual protest against vthat I consider a mis- representation of the principles of °lariat. ianity, and as one who believes that they are grander, nobler and broader then your recent course of action would indicate them to be, I feel that I am right in thus pro. testing. --Yours sincerely, GEO.

Answer to an Unf athoinable uestion. In a sermon reeently preached in Edin. burgh, Scotland, by Rev. Alex. Whyte, DD, referenoe wits made to George Gillespie, a contemporary and iiitimete friend of Samuel Rutherford. Gillespie, was born in the perish manse of Kirkoskly in 1613; he was ordained to ehe charge of the neigh- boring congregation of Wemyss in 1638 and wae translated thence to Edinburgh in 1042; and then he was one of the four famous deputies who were sent up from the Church of Scotland to represent her in the Westminster Assembly in 1643. It is told that when the Committee of Assembly was engaged on the composition of the Shorter Catechism, and had corms to the question, " What is God?" like the able mon they were, they all shrunk from attempting an answer to such an unfathomable macular). In their perpleeity they Stetted Gillespie to offer prayer for help, when he began his prayer with these words "0 God, Thou art a Spirit, infinite, eternal end unchange- able in Thy being, wienom, power, holiness, justice goodness and truth." As soon as be said Amen, hie opening sentences were remembered, and teken down, and they stand to this day the most eoriptural and complete answer to that unanswerable question that hoe appeered in any creed or catechism of the Christian Church. As her best tribute to the talents and services of her youngest commissioner, the Edin- burgh Assembly of 1648 appointed Gillespie her Moderator; but his health was fast failing, and he died in Deoenaber of thst year in the 36th year of his see. The inscription on his tombstone at Kirkoeldy ends with these words: "A men profound in minium mild in diapoeition, acute in argument, flowing in eloquence, ionoon- leered in mind. He drew to himself the love of the good, the envy of the bad, and the admiration of all." —The widow of Gen, Logan indignantly deniee a rumor that sbe is about to marry again. She says : "Thanks to Congress and the General's friends, I am well pro. vided for, and I now enjoy the friendsbip of many good men who were hie friends.

The Courtliness and Vet o' the lam Earl Granville. Of the late Earl Grenville it is said that he was the embodiment of the axiom ",Manners Makyth Man." Always °carto- ons, he made emptiest' friends and no enemies, so that when news of his death , cisme there was no need to remind any one to "speak no ill of tbe dead" • for one almost unbroken tribute of edinireition and regret was paid by men of all par- ties. Perhaps this was not the most val- uable quality for a statesmen to possess, but there can be but one opinion of its sooial charm. His manner toward women was perfect. During the last few years Earl Granville wan not eo peppier at court as formerly, owing to his unwever- ing devotion to Mr. Gladetone, who has never been liked by the Queen. This, however, did not influence her to neglect to send a funeral wreath an "8 /perk of Me cere friendship," and n eerly every member of the roysl family hint a special token of remembreuce anti re. gret. Earl Granville has lways been closely asetmiated with the royal family, and was the only minister in attendauce sit Frog. more on the memorable night of January 8th, 1864, when Prince Albert Victor ar- rived so unexpectedly in thie world that . neither doctor, norm nor loyette was at hand, and little Dr. Brown had to he hastily summoned from Windsor, only ar- riving just in time, as, three hours or so ' before the arrival of the little Prince, Her Royal Highaese hed been upon the ice at Virginis Water Had Lord Granville not been dining with the Prinee of Welee upon the night in question, it is very probable that the eldest eon of riots heir apparent would have entered upon his cereer in a highly unconstitutional manner, withont she presence of the " Illibieter." who is only one degree less neceseery upon these happy occasions in the royal family than the physician or the nurse.
