TELEORAPHIC SUMMARY- The daughters of Mr. Greeley, with ex ceeding good luute, refuse contribution* from the Press, but are willing that any testimonial to the memory of their fat he i should be made. A railway accident occurred at Mittlin, Pennsylvania, yesterday. General C. C. Maxwell committed nui citle at Dayton, Ohio, yesterday Nothing new or important iu Cniigresa The case ol ths Merchants' Nuliomil Kauk of Memphis, Tennessee, against the Natioual Bank of Commerce of Boston, which lius occupied the United .Slates Cir cuit Court several days, has resulted in a verdict for plalntltf for H4.5H1 2.1. The cult was brought to recover damages for negligence on the pnrt of thn defendants in giving up to consignees the hills of la ding of a lot of cotton, upon the accept tuioe, by the consignees, of a thirty day's draft drawn against the shipment and at tached to the hills of lading, aud sent on to the defendant's bank for collection. The pluintitfs contend that it was the duty ol the ban’- to keep the collatteral until the drall was paid, and that by reason ol giving up the bills of lading me plalulilfs lost their security, the consignees having tailed, before the expiration of the thirty days, after accepting it.

That of Mr. Greeley is in his own handwriting 11 was n l inen in tin early part of Novell! tier, and the formalities of its ncknowlodg in ut and execution took place on the last day of his life, in the presence ot several persons. The subscribing witnesses to the will were Judge Hart's son. Reginald tJ Hurt, und Mrs l.amson. an old and cs teemed friend of the family. Two wills previously made by Jit Greeley and in closed in sealed envelopes are in possession of Gwen '1 I’ntliu.

RELIGIOUS NOTES”' * ; I" * The churches, iu this country at least, uo more apply the rack to extort confes sions of guilt and exterminate heretical doctrine 0 That is to say, material instru ments of torture at aids to confession aud faith are uot used. Moral pressure and fear of excommunication ure sometimes equally effective, while they are less cruel The Ucv. Samuel Watsnu. a minister of ) the Methodist Episcopal church, was lately charged with •• heresy " before Hie Memphis conference. The raorsl rack was tried and saved the brother. He was charged with “heresy and violation of or dinance vow ” Among the specifications were "teaching that there is a necessiti for a more tangible proof of tire doctrine of immortality than is contained in Holy Scriptures." "Teaching that the spirits of the wicked can in the future state pro gress to purity, aud become fitted for heaven." "Teaching instead of banishing the erroneous and strange doctriuc of necromancy." There were other doc trinal s[>eciflcation.s, hut Hie whole fact is that the Itev Watson was a believer in so-called spiritualism,” and had written and published a hook en titled, "The Clock Btriiok One,” which was pronounced by the elders of the church to be full of heresies. The rever end gentleman was in a tight place before the ecclesiastical court, and made an an swer to the charges which proved entirely •utiHfactory. He deeply regretted that lie had put himself in opposition to the Judgment of the church when his iatent was to promote its interests. Ife agreed to stop teaching spiritual doctrines and to suppress so far as lie could the sale and circulation of tbs book, "The Clock Struck One." He agreed to yield all that was asked of him iu order to enjoy the fellowship anil confidence of the members of the church until he died. The com inittee accepted bin upnlogy, and reported it to the conference, which endorsed the action of the committee and took nn miuii imous vote on tho reverend brother's character. He was thus reinstated. He did not renounce liia belief iu spiritualism, uor was he required to do so. He simply agreed not to taacli it, and proposed to walk in the old paths of Methodism. He ia at liberty to believe w hat he pleases, but has pledged himself to teach sound church doctrines.— St. I avia '! 'ivbtiran. Q Can you not, in a few words, give some instruction and encouiagement to those who have a difficulty about feeling that there is a heavenly Father who hears and miswers prayer '! Mk. Rkecuer : There is a gift of pl ay er in Ilia constitution of tuen, us much us there is n gift of poetry or oratory, or math ematics. or anything else. Some natures are praying natures My observation of people goes to show that the praying cle ment is us much an original and constitu tional element with some, ns any tempera ment or disposition. They are the men who, if this gift is consecrated, and if they are intelligent, become princes of prayer Then come a larwp -.ai.n . class, who have <-- i-“Otlity. hut no original im veiling force, in that direction. If they pray when they are warm, they are con scions of success ; but if they pray when they are cold, they do not suppose their praying amounts to much. They are like wood which, if it is dry uud in good trim, burns brightly, but which, if it is greeu, only sizzJes when you put it on the tire. And then come a caution and skeptical class And these I am not disposed to blame. Jly mind never turns against a man who tells me that lie is naturally a doubter, and that be does not see bis wsy clear to accept this or that or the other thing My sympathies go out toward him Constitutionally, lam an immense believer in spots, and au immense skeptic in spots. 1 have gone through days of darkness and nights of anguish ton many, ever to have any feeling but that of the warmest and most yearning sympathy for a man whose heart reluctates. I have known years when my prayer was, “Lord. I believe, O help my unbelief!”—and the unbelief was the larger part. In regard to this third class of nat urallys keplical persons, who are scattered through the community. 1 would say that this disposition to doubt is found in men of the strongest moral temperament, the utmost conscientiousness, and the most upright character. Some of the best men In citizenship are men who say, "I would give all the world to believe in religion, but I couuot.” Aud with suelt men as these the question is one of education and of time. It is a question of growth with them. I believe that in most instances ttisy can be led, little, by little, out of the state of apprebensiou. and hesitancy, and reluctant unbelieving . but it cannot be done in a minute. God lias patience with them.and they must have patience with themselves. Only thorough woik is worth doing.— Faults only half uprooted w ill appear again and we shall almost despair of curing them. Will you remember this * \\> are till liable.as we learn from faith ful friends and sarcastic neighbors,to judge severely thoso tilings which we have es caped, and to rate highly the virtues which we possess. Let there be close and faithful dealing with thoso whom we takointo tho church. Let us be more concerned about quality than quantity. “They are not all Israel winch are of Israel." liod never turns his servants off to shift for themselves in old age. No . for when they are unable to work or walk he will keep them, il it be only to look at. I!o assured of it. he will t ike good care of you. God kuows whaf is best for us, and doubtless aces that tests are as important to his moral universe as a chemists analy sis is to determine the philosophy of com pounds. or a builder's ’rials of the strength of materials. The l.ord takes up none but the for saken, makes none healthlv but the sick, gives sight to none but the blind, makes uone alive but the dead, sanctifies none but sinners, and gives w odom to none but the foolish. Not by quantity, but by quality will we be judged in the cud." Therefore our greatest aim should be at purity of life and j heart, and iu getting as many ss possible ; to join us iu the work of saving themselves and the world. A pure heart is a sincere heart. It is true to its convictions. It houeotly in quires after the right way. with a deter mination to take it at all haxzatda. It does not hold Jbe truth in unrighteousness. It practices what it believes. If we diiobejr the dictate’s of conscience, even in the most trifling particular, or allow ou ret Ives to do what we have some fears may not be quite right, wo shall grow more and more sleepy, until the voice of conscience has no’longer the power to awaken us. THE GHEATCOMMOIiI R w • • •Ji . ■ AN UNPCOMSHBO LETTKU KUO.M MU. GUEKLVY. Washington, D. C , Dec I—A hh introduction to the subjoined letter it is proper to state that Mr. Greeley was a warm personal ftieud of Charles Lamnan, to whom it was addressed. Mr. Latimau's catlier essays as it writer were published in the New Yorker. Although lie never participated in politics, Mr. Greeley occs sionnlly favored him witli letters of advice and took s special interest m the success of his dictionary of Congress. Mr. Greeley's lust uote to Mr. Lantnan is as follows New Yoke, June 27. 1872- Friend Lanman: —Received yours of the 25th itist. I have all my life been doing wrliat people called vastly foolish, impolitic acts, and I did not dispute their judgment. 1 only saiil that what 1 did neemed to me the right thing. If I should die before election or be beaten therein, please testify fur me that 1 do uot regret navittg braved public opinion wlteu 1 thought irwrnng anil knew it to be mere! less Yours, lloitAi k Greei.kt. A LIBERAL MAN'S OFFER To the Kditor of the Sun —Sir : It is well known that Mr. Greeley accumulated but little money during his life-time His uuremllted efforts were for the public, rather than for himself. He was invaria bly tlie champion of right, regardless of pecuniary profit; uml no good cause ever required assistance but lie was willing to aid it with pen anil voice, mid if need be, with his purse. In whatever lie did he Imd in view the benefit of the people, who in the end rewarded liis labors by breaking his heart. His readiness to assist private suffering aud necessity is familiar to all. One of Hie charges brought against him by his enemies in the late canvass was his abundant charity, anil it is certain that his estate cannot he large. Under these circumstances I would sug gest that Hie fund collected for a statue to tiis memory lie paid to his family. His works art; are his l-est monument, which will tower higher and become more con spicuous as tlie nation recedes from his age, aud, freed front party bitterness, can look buck on his career with uu impartial eye. liven his iocs feel sorrow for his death, and perhaps would increase a trib ute to the worthy qualities of the greatest anil noblest man of our day. Tlie public may still partially atone for its ingratitude by its libenuty, and prove it wits from no want of appreciation of his virtues and ser vices that the people fuilcd to give him their suffrages lor President. in case litis suggestion meets your ap proval, you may increase my subset ip lion to five times its original amount.
