II.) Union. , Mr. Wauamaker visited two or threo Sunday schools last Sunday, but repotts do not state whether he said anything about the Golden Rule or not. It would be in terestiug to know whether, in tho course of the day, his thoughts wandered for . a moment across the State of New Jersey to Vineland, where Dr. Brewer very probably also attended divine service, though with lees ostentation. Dr. ' Brewer has beeu pohtmaKter of Vineland until recently, and, although a pronounsed Democrat, he was bo popular with his fellow townsmen that they preferred to have him retain the posi tion, and the leading Republican paper of the place openly said so. A large number of leading citizens, without regard to party, said the same thing, but it did not matter, and Dr. Brewer was removed. Then some body asked for a reason for his removal, and Mr. Wauamaker's department prompt ly and positively replied that it was for cause, and added the suggestion that the cause wa8 nnanoial irregularities. Dr. Brewer, is a Democrat, - t'3t during the twenty years he iias lived in Vineland he has won the respect of his neighbors of both parties. They ara unwilling uk ac cent my such charges as : true withou proof, and a committee ot well-kaown Re pobUcanu, so that there could be no ques tion of partisan favor, was organized to in vestigate tho post.o0ice accounts tor. them selves. They found everything in perl'oot order, and willingly testified bo in the Re publican paper of the town. This loaves Dr. Brewer in an honorable position, holding the coutideuco aud esteem Jpf his fellow citizens; but us much cannot be said of the department of which Mr. Wananur ker is the head. He permitted an attempt to blacken an honest man's character to go unrebnked and unpunished, lie not oniy did . as he - would not be douo by, but he was a party to the meanest of all mean' things backbiting and defamation. Mr.s Wanamaker should try to be, abetter Postmaster-General, or he . should inakt himself Jess conspicuous at Sunday schools. At present he is a Dr. Jekyll on Sundays aud a Mr. Hyde the rest of tho week.
