SUNDAY, APRIL 9, 1882.
EASTER SUNDAY.
To-day Easter Sunday is observed
03 a religious festival to a greater or
less extent in all Christian countries,
and Is celebrated with especially im
pressive ceremonies by the Episcopal,
the Lutheran the Catholic and
the Greek churches. As commemora
tive of the resurrection of Christ these
services are of rather a joyful charac
ter as compared with the sombre cere
monies of the penitential season of
Lent which it termiuates. The origin
of the word Easter is 'somewhat in
doubt, somederiviug it from Ostera, the
Teutonic goiaeas of spring.whose feast
the ancient Saxons celebrated in the
early spring, and others from the Saxon
word oster or osten, which signifies
'risen, which would appear to be the
more reasonable derivation.
ItTesemblesthe Jewish feast of she
Passover, which is celebrated on the
15th of Abib (which signifies green) and
corresponds somewhat with our month
of April. The early Christians differed
a3 to the time of celebrating Easter,
and it was not until the fourth century
that the time was definitely fixed, when
the .Council of Kice took the matter
under consideration and after a full dis
cussion decided that the Church would
adopt as Easter day the first Sunday
after the full moon which happens
upon or next after the 21st of March.
If the full moon happen on a Sunday the
following Sunday is Easter. Thus Eas
ter may come as early as March 22 or
as late as April 25.
The Church has regarded this festival
with special interest, and it has been
called the queen of festivals, celebrated
from the very beginning of the Church
and yet observed with great ceremony
and enthusiastic fervor.
In the early days the Christians had
peculiar forms of salutation with
which they greeted each other on this
day, and in some countries these forms
are still observed, as are also some of
the peculiar customs that originated no
one knows how. Some of these cus
toms were innoceat amusement, others
not quite so innocent, though apparent
ly amusing. In some portions of En
gland the men paraded the streets on
Easter Sunday and were privileged to
throw their arms around any woman
they met, lift her three times from the
ground and demand in return a kiss or
a sixpence, but which they preferred is
not stated. Games of ball and other
sports were also indulged in, the digni
taries of the land sometimes partici
pating, and everybody seeming to take
special interest in them. It was deemed
an especially fitting occasion to insult
the Jews, and small boys were in the
habit of parading the streets singing
doggerdl verses expressive of their con
tempt for these people, while in France
it was not uncommon to beat Jews un
mercifully, sometimes to the point of
death. These sportvecustomshave.il
most entirely disappeared, and it is not
now regarded as an evidence of chris
tian virtue tolnsult or abuse a Jew.
The colored egg, ;n which the chil
dren still take an especial interest, date
back many centuries in England, and
were oometimes elaborately ornament
ed and presented even by kings as
tokens of personal regard, while the
small boy who became the proprietor
of an egg with a good strong end, went
around triumphantly and bade defiance
to other boys who were not so well
equipped. We have an indistinct rec
ollection of something of that kind
ourselves in our early career. As we
write now there are a dozen of boys
under the window as earnest in the
game of "picking" for the eggs at stake
as Napoleon ever was in playing the
game for empire. We suppose this
custom will last as long as boys and
egg3 last, and from present indications
they will last for an indefinite period,
especially the boys.
The ceremonies in the Catholic
churches are made very attractive on
this day commemorative as they are of
the resurrection of Christ and his tri
umph over death, and the establishment
of the religion which he came upon
earth to preach, and died that he might
give it to man.. She puts on, so to
speak, her festive garments instead of
the sombre habiliments she wore during
the forty days of Lent, andfsings the
glad songs of rejoicing, and pours out
her heart in gratitude over the God
wrought resurrection of the Prince of
Peace who came, lived, suffered and
died that sin-cursed man might live and
not die forever.
WILL THE BANKS BE RE-ClUlt-TERED
f
As a matter of fact, the charters of
three hundred national banks expire by
limitation of law on the first day of
next February, and between this time
and the first day of next March no less
than four hundred of these institutions,
with a capital of from fifty to seventy
five millions of dollars, will pass out of
existence, unless they are re-chartered
by the present Congress.
The banking and currency commit
tee of Congress have reported a bill ex
tending the charters of national banks,
on the ground that liquidation and set
tling up, preliminary to new charters,
would involve loss, delay and tempor
ary stringency in the money market.
The bill, however, stands so far down
the calendar that the prospect of reach
ing it this session is not very good, and
an effort was made on last Monday to
have April 15th set aside for its consid
erationto make it a continuing special
order of that day. To suspend the rules
for that purpose required a two-thirds
vote, and it could not be obtained. The
rote was, yeas 122, nays 78. The Be
publicans, together with the New Eng
land and New York Democrats cast the
affirmative vote, while the negative
votes are said to have been almost sol
idly Democratic most of them coming
from the Southern members.
If the members of Congress from
North Carolina voted that way, we sup
pose they can explain their action to
their constituents at the proper time ;
out, looking at the matter as we do, if
the Democratic party is to plant itself
solidly against the present national
banking system, in which is involved
the best interests of the country, we
are of the opinion that it might as well
"hang its harp on the willow tree," so
far as the hope of success in the future
is concerned.
But in this matter there is a higher
principle involved than the mere ques
tion of political expediency. It involves
the whole financial management of the
government, and as a direct result be
comes ramified into every business
man's office in the country. Nor does
it stop here. With an increasing vol
ume, it copies home to every man in the
land.
We believe the present national bank
ing system to be the best the country
ever had, but if it is not, let the errors
be corrected; but, at a time like this,
we should not throttle fifty millions of
capital, make business unsettled, and
thus bring about financial and business
chaos. The national banks or it has
been dflne mainly through their influ
encehave elevated the credit of the
government until her bonds are now
being carried for about 3 per cent,
while we have a debt outstanding of
over two thousand millions of dollars.
If we now disturb the financial condi
tion of the country, no man can predict
the result
Above all, we do not want to see the
leaders of the Democratic party, as the
vote last Monday would seem to indi
cate, arrayed solidly against the capital
of the country, and it will be an evil
day for us when that time comes.

ation of Shipherd was resumed to-day

The miasma of Washington has to
shoulder a good deal of the work of
high living and bad whiskey.
There is a proposition befoie the citi
zens of Louisville, Ivy., to subscribe
$1,000,000 to secure the removal of the
capital to that city.
From present indications they will
have the last census written up and
completed about the time they will be
ready to begin another one.

intended to be shown to the' Secretary
of State, whoever he might be, Whether
Blaine or Frelinghuysen.
The letter was then put In evidence
and read by the clerk. It was quite
long and defended tne writer (snipnerd;
from the secretary's charges against
him of attempting to bribe Minister
Hurlbut
Shipherd was asked to state what
personal interviews he had with Secre
tary Blaine and replied that he held the
first interview with him on the evening
of October 13th, and another on the
morning of October Hth. The witness
then stated at some length the circum
stances which led up to the first inter
view, going back to the dispatches
he (Shipherd) had supposed were sent
by Secretary Blaine to Mr. Hurlbut.
These despatches, the witness stated,
were read to Senator Blair by Mr.
Blaine, June 2d, and subsequently Sen
ator Blair remarked to him, (Shipherd,)
"If you had written the dispatches
yourself they would not have covered
the ground more perfectly. Particu
larly the cable dispatch."
Shortly after that the witness saw
Senator Blair and asked if the dis
patches had been sent, and was assured
that they had been. And again a few
davs afterwards Senator Blair said to
witness: "I have seen the Secretary and
he says the dispatches were sent with
out alteration of any kind on the same
day they were read to me, June 2nd."
When witness received Hurlbut's
letter stating that no such dispatches
had ever been received, he was
very much disturbed, and at once
sought Blair to find out what it meant
The Senator was greatly puzzled, and
said : Mr. Shipherd, this affects my ve
racity and that of the Secretary ; I will
make itmy business to investigate."
Witness came to Washington on the
advice of Blair, and held his first inter
view with the Secretary on the evening
of October 14th. Witness then detailed
what occurred at this interview. The
Secretary appeared a little impatient,
and. as he (Shipherd) thought, seemed
to anticipate the object of his visit.
Witness showed him Hurlbut's letter.
He took it, read it, threw it down, and
said: "What's the matter with that let
ter?" Witness repied: "Mr. Secretary,
it disturbs us by what it does not say
rather than by what it does say.
It discusses Peru and her affairs, but
says nothing of American interests."
Witness continued, "I then adverted to
Mr. Hurlbut's singular conduct in with
holding the documents he had been re
quired to deliver to Mr. Arizau."
Ml. Blaine retorted sharply : "What
business have you to make an errand
boy of the American minister? He
would have done right if he had thrown
your papers into the fare.
Witness then told Blaine what was
reported of Hurlbut's intimacy with
Juarez; that they had gone out togeth
er on a steamer, that on arriving at
Lima, Juarez had placed at Hurlbut's
disposal one of the finest residences in
Lima, with a wine cellar exceptionally
well stocked, and that Hurlbut was oc
cupying it free of expense to himself,
and all had been furnished by the Credit
Industrial.
Mr. Blaine laughed incredulously and
said, "Oh, I don't catch Steve in
that wav: if he lives in a fine
house he pays rent for it.
Witness then said further, "Well, Mr
ecretary, their intimacy is a matter of
public comment in Lima. They are
always together; Juarez i3 virtually an
inmate of the American legation."
Blaine exclaimed, with great emphasis,
"If all this be true, he must have sold
out to the Credit Industrie!. I will go
to the bottom of this." Then, after a
moment, turning to witness, he added,
"What do you want me to do, Ship
herd?" Witness handed him the draft
of a dispatch, and said, "Send that to
Hurlbut'' Blaine read it, and replied,
"No ; not that ; it would raise a howl in
Congress." He (Mr. Blaine) then wrote,
resting on the arm of his chair, a dis
patch, in substance as follows : "A re
port reaches the State Department that
your conduct is such as to lead to a sus
picion of improper relation with the
Credit Industriel. You must stop it."
Witness continued: "I heard after
wards, through Senator Blair, tDat the
dispatch was sent but the dispatch
which, it appears from the correspond
ence furnished by the State Depart
ment, was sent was very different from
this dispatch, which the Secretary
wrote in my presence and read to me."

UUl. -
Muldrow concluded his speech. He
was opposed to the ftroposed bill be
cause it was for procrastination. It
delegated work to other hands to do
whidh ought to be done by Congress.
He criticised the action of the protec
tionists in regard to the internal reve
nue. Whenever, and only" when there
was danger of a reduction of taxation
they made war on the internal revenue
system. They were then moved to
great sympathy for the South, bnt while
tliey wanted to remove the tax on
whiskey and tobacco they proposed to
increase it on cotton ties. . He believed
that the voters of the country could not
always do Kept in lernorance or tne un
necessary burdens they bore under the
present protective tariff. He contend
ed that of all the industries agriculture
suffered most from its operations.
Representing an agricultural people, he
could not consent to vote for a bill the
object of which he believed was de
signed either to continue indefinitely
tne present cruel system, or to recom
mend another more objectionable and
oppressive,

The committee then rose, and Frost,
of Missouri, announced the death of his
colleague, Hon. Thomas Allen, of Mis
souri. He then offered resolutions of
regret and for .the appointment of -a
committee or seven representatives
and three Senators to superintend the
funeral ceremonies, which were unani
mously adopted
The Speaker, in accordance therewith
announced the appointment of the fol
lowing committee to attend the re
mains of the deceased to Pittsfield,
Mass.: Messrs. Hatch, -Frost, Robinson
of Massachusetts, Gunter, Chalmers,
Mills and Aldrich.
The House, then, at 1:45," out of re
spect to the memory of the deceased,
adjourned.
