He declared that be oeuid net see hew gentlemen oould approach the Ko-kloz question' without -seetog difficulties in tbe way. Even Mr.

Sheilabarger, the author ef tbe bint had himself said that we are entering upon nOBITOBT that territory was neutral ground of ell hnman government, an which there would be antagonistic ideas for all time. When either ef tfaeee Ideas gained full possession of this ground tbejiunof a 000007 followed. One side was tnponaa ajtd ocm avascht. Mr. Garfield admitted that the powers of tbe.people were abridged by the last three amend etits to the Constitution, aad declared their wtodeou He denied that their abridgement extended to tbe degree claimed by bis colleague, Mr.

Bingham. He then went on to review the debate upon the adoption ef the Fourteenth Amendment, under which Mr. Bingham maims te fled hto authority, aad declared that the only question before Congress now to to find a way to protect ettiasoe without absorbing State governments.

As he did so the crowd ef Republican brethren fell beck. There to great antagonism to Butler in the Republican ranks. They think that Benjamin wants to run them, and like to declare in acts on every possible cccerico, "I9, YOU bOXT." Thus at tbe beginning they ell fell book to their wonted places. But Democracy turned upon Benjamin its universal face. When he lifted up bote arms and shrilly cried: Obi for the power Ol for the power if but for tone hour, tbe unlimited power to put down this adversary to put down the wrong, to defend the right, te help the outcast, and to lift op the outraged, Ob, for the power! wouldn't I use It," Democracy idn't doubt that, nor Republicanism either.

'Where are the Ku-Klux?" he demanded. Go aod call tbe roll of tbe Confederate army; call the luuf-fiedged boys who were in it: call all the i hswsFAPnm numcnaa who followed it, and you will find the Ku-Klux." They didn't stay in their seats although they had sought them. One by one the Republican faces to rood toward the speaker, one by one they drew nearer, till, when ho ended bis lnt sentence, the entire House was looking at him orbed gathered around him. Tbe speech was muoh more moderate, and les personal te tone than the BCTLBB-BLAIXn debate led everybody to expect. With the exception of one fling" at Speaker Blaise and hts allusion to Garrett Davis, was.free from personalities.

A very large mad social gathering of ladies and gentlemen, member of tbe Sunday-school and invited guests convened last evening xn the lecture-room of the Contra!

DAAAffnt: The pleasure of your company is respectfully requested at a social gathering and informal welcome to our pastor elect Rev. Dr. Heery M.

Boudderla the lecture room of the oh arch, on Wednesday evening next, Apri I 6, at 8 clock. Respectfully, Wm. T. Pbatt, President. Fakd C.

Paadek, MUD. Secretary, 444 Ciasson avenue. Among tbe first te arrive was one Jenkins. At the threshold of tbe lecture room he met the handsome President of tbe Yonng Peopled Association attached te the church, William Pratt, who instantly furnished him with a letter of invitation, aad eordiaily invited Jenkins to enter end see for himself how the whole thing was. He did so.

Tbe lecture tooni was brilliantly lighted, the walls were adorned with flags which drooped gracefully in a eemicirmilar form, aad pretty streamers of different lines dipped their heeds between the two rows of Iron column That traverse the room. At tbe rear of the platform stood out tn relieve the words, Welcome to our Pastor, painted te large bine characters oa a white ground. Two immense flags of the nation drooped on either tide, partially embosoming tbe words ot greeting. Pictures were profusely placed uoon the wells. In tbe centre of the room a large bonqnet ot odoriferous flowers with tbs monogram 8 worked with little flat gems of purple hue on a groundwork or spotless white, stood on a small table.

Looking through the glees windows with his back towards tbe platform, Jenkins sew a monstrously large table laden with cakes of all sorts spread in the infants' class-room, and in a small adjacent closet be was told there was Ice cream for four hundred sons aud daughters of Adam. Haring noted all this, the inquisitive Jenkins retired into tbe most remote corner of tbe room, and calmly awaited the arrival of the ladies and gents and the vonog hunhs of tne flock that were to fatten that night upon ton tubs of ice cream aod five hundred baskets of cake. The first to appear was the pastor himself, Rev. Dr. Henry M.

Scndder, and his family. He is tall and of slender built, fan face sharp and long, and made more so by a sandy-colored heard, which he very frequently caressed as be would an oM, familiar, and devoted fricpd. But there ts a smile of joy and cordiality, a beam of intelligence, bright and spantJxDg glow of superior intellect lighting bis countenance up that reveals the man, and the deith of goodness and greatoess which fill the unseen temple of bis soul. His oldest yUnwedded duuvhter was attired in a plain bhie colored walking dress. She a young lady of prepossessing, appearance, and dunog tbe evening freely circulated among tbe ladies of tbe congregation.

The doctor baa two grown up young men eons: they ro-setrble each other closely: a healthy glow to upon their cheeks that distinguishes them from others. The queen of tho past oris establishment, Mrs. Dr. Scudoer. to good Yankee girl from New York, as he stated himself, who has-been, his faithfnl and ioviag companion te all bis missionary labors, anxieties and journeys.

title Jenkins was noting all this, another Scudder arrived; be was the Rev, Dr. Bcudder, the pastor' brother. Theo came E. W. Starr, Superintendent of the Sunday-scoool, Dr.

Taylor of Auburn. Or. Robinson, of Flatbusb. Rev. Mr.

James, of Woodhaven, I. Rev. A. Merwln, Rev. Abaod Gleeson.

Rev. Mr. Griswold. Rev. Dr.

Bodlngton, Rev. Dr. Hutoluas, Rev. Dr. bootd.

Dr. Wylie, and a number of other gentlemen of note among tbe clergy and laity of tbe mty. Presently the room was one brilliant blaze, so full of light and beauty that poor Jeukina was obliged to draw more and more into bis remote eoroer and shield his weak eyes from the uncontrollable current of beauty and brilliancy that came in through tbe far elf door and passed like a beauteous vision, and came and stood and did honor to tbe star of tbo Brooklyn pulpit that toad so recently appeared. Tbese were the gentle and beauteous lambs of the flock, and those the stately matrons that bad graduated in the house of the Lord and walked like oueens la bis temple. At 9:90 o'clock Mr.

William T. Pratt, President of the Young People's Association, called the assemblage to order, and la a very neat speech gave greeting to the pastor in the name of tbe Association. Rev, Dr. Wylie, who previous to tbe arrival of Dr, Scudder was acting pastor of the Central Congregational Church, next arose, and on behalf of tbe oongrcgatioa welcomed Dr. Scudder to the new field of his labors.

At the close of this speaker's temnrks Dr. Busing ton wns introduced as a representative of tbe Congregational mletoters in the city ef Brook lye. He said he would have been here, surrounded by his cotoborerv, but an examination of young dcrsr men had taken place that day, and the ministers of tbe Board ef Examiners were thereby prevented from being present at this weleome to Dt. Scudder. But he believed he spoke tbe sentiment of tbe absentees when be said, God bless Dr.

Scudder as parior of the Central Congregational Church. 1 here was no city tn the land tn which a paster was more heartily welcomed, or in which his days more swiftlv and happily guded on Iban in the City of Churches. 1 bis was the Central Congregational Church, und it was destined to become tbe nucleu of many churches: and If God spared Dr. Bcutder'e life end health he would be, tbe speaker said, he father of many churches on the great plateau betore him. This greet citv lies before him aad bo bas been called ion to oes.se tbe land.

They were now organizing a committee to introduce a more misrtonary spirit among the chnrcbcs. Tbe advent at this juncture of Dr. Bcudder was singularly opportune; they hailed him as a co-laborer sent by Heaven's special oom-mnnd. Brooklyn wns to become more and more a City of Churobrsjin Ibc strict meaning of tbe word, and they baited Dr. c-cuddor as their future standard bearer.

His mission was among a people who always loved religion and where the fortifications of Christianity were placed It was the happiest day of then lives, be resumed when be came among them. Nothing was now wsnted but room for the people to come, and tbe pwtor would have more room and room enough. Dr. Souidor responded in a bumerous speech, and shortly after the formal meeting was dissolved into aa informal tete-a-tete converse over toe cream and hot muffins. Exit Jenkins.

A litter from Henry Ward Btecher was received, excusing kis absence, and welcoming Dr. Scudder to tbe pulpit of Brooklyn, and also one trom Ray Palmer.

Tbe proposed swindle on th people of Queew County, tbe details of which am given in my letter of last night, baa been abandoned for a time. Tbe provision of the BlaskweU'a Inland Bridge bill, which saddled an immense torn upon Queens County for the construction of tbe structure, bas been stricken out. This action is awing to tbe alarm of the friends tbe bill they thought that If tbe measure passed a Democratic Senator from Long Island might be lost next election. A Railroad; bill Introduced by Mr. Wainwrigbt was passed In the Assembly last night.

The following are tbe two important sections of the bill Section Sanford Murray, George A. Brown, Oliver P. Buell, Patrick. Gleason, James Lambe, Michael O'Keefe, Thomas Gibeoa, Edward Clark, John Ferguson, Felix Campbell, aod Frederick Grass and their present and future as sodatea shall and are hereby created, constituted and declared to be a body politic and corporate by the name of the Long Island City and Calvary Cemetery Railroad Company, with fall power and authority to lay, eon struct, overate, aad use a railroad with a double track aad necessary switches and turnouts, to be operated by horse power and to carry passengers thereon for compensation, through and along tbe following avenues and streets in Long Island City, County of Qoeens: Commencing at Thirty-fourth street ferry In said city; thence upon Ferry street, and through tbe continuance of Ferry street to street thence along street to Laurel Hill, hence through aod upon the Shell road to Winfield.

The tax levy 1- dow under discussion. Senator Murphy in speaking for tbe bill, said that while tbe measure was not exactly to his liking, yet be ould support it. He wanted the people of New York to attend to their own interests, afid the bill gave them the poirer.

He then reviewed the provisions of the bill. He beld that the officers named in the bill were better qualified than any other to determine upon the matters proposed to be submitted to them, and that if false to their trusts there was a way to punish them. Senator Murphy's remarks were very brief. Tom Creamer said that tbe bill limited the yearly expense of New York that the gentlemen named the bill never had power to spend one hundred million dollars. There Is no doubt that the measure will be can led, Naedle-Gun.

OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT. ANNUAL INSPECTION BY TBE CONNKSSION KBS. Tbe Condition of tbo Eastern Division Apparatus Experience an Vt llllamsbatm Streets. The Fire Commissioners commenced their annual inspection of the engine houses, yesterday, completing the survey of tbe Eastern Division apparatus, and a portion In the Western Division. The party of inspection consisted of Coxa-nmei on era Campbell, McLaughlin, and Brown, Chief Engineer Nevtna, and Assistant Engineer Smith.

They first visited No. 10, In Carlton, near Myrtle a enue, and then on tbe route io Williamsburg, No. 9 engine, both bouses being found tn a substantial and well-kept condition. they next proceeded to the Eastern Division, embracing aootent Williamsburg, and here their experiences were of a different description. As soon as they crossed the line ttiey found themselves, as were, in another and, to all appearances, a foreign country.

Instead of well pared streets, they found that cobblestones and bouiders had been indiscriminately thrown Into the roadways, rut up to tbe wheel-hubs every few feel then a bole, or collection of water large enough to be a duck pond, and once in a While the variety was changed by tbe vehicles sinking down Into tbe mud. Tne party round, before proceeding very far, that they would never return with their vehicles If they ventured beyond a auntie trot. The wheels or ties were liable to be broken or snapped off at every advance. In tbe laoauiure of one of the party, it seemed when crossing tbe old division fine that they were coming out ot smooth roadways like those of Proetect Park, and entering upon the roughest sort of mountain ronds. However, they succeeded in oomplotiog their rounds without accident, for which they express gratitude to another (ban tbe contractor.

Tbo bouses io the Eastern Division are occupied by Engines No. 11, IS, and 13. and Trucks 4, ft, and A One story wlU do for tbe whole of them. They were all tn a dilapidated, worn out coioh tion, baring boon entirely neglected by (he city authorities, under whoso supervision they were constructed, and then left to decay. The displaced binge ot a door was seldom replaced, boards were substituted for window pane, roofs that were leaky remain ad so.

tilt at last these costly structures have become so much damaged by misuse and the elements that it will cost nearly as mnob to replace them in proper condition that it did to build them originally. As for tbe apparatus, they are not muoh batter than tbe be uses. The streets being in so horrible a condition, soon in the best of weather, that nothing else than break down ii expected on the occasion ef every alarm of fire. The Eastern Division epperatos require double the repairs than tbe whole of the VVesteru Division for this caue alone. As tbe Commissioners cannot repair the streets, they mul expect to piy the difference, which, they estimate, will take the greater pro portion of tbe fund appropriated for Rue purpose.

Of tbe three new steamers and one truck, recently aurbonsed tolw purchased, the Commissioners intend to place two of tbe former In the eastern division aud transfer one track to this division. 'J he Commissioners will continue their Investigations of tbe Western District apparatus during the latter pert of the week. A NEW SET9F COLOB9.

Wm. M. Brundage ef Second Place, a broter doing busineas hi New otreet. New York, well known te political and social me. dfs, and as a leader of fashion la this city, ro-eeotiy came te grief, and this to how it oo-enrred; In 1867 bo entered into partnership with a young men named Fred.

L. Mother. as stock broken, at 81 New street, the father of tee totter furnishing tee capital, $33,090, and starting the concern. Their connection enabled them te obtain a large business from the outset, and they made money very rapidiy.snd continued to do ae for about three yean. Among their principal custom era were Judge McCann ef tbe Superior Co art, Smith Bay Us' Eeq-, Edward North, the welft-known Democratic politkdea and a great many other prominent tndfvtduato, including Coi.

and Admiral Jaa. Flak, Jr This latter perhape, accounts forjfteur ruin. At tbo expiration of this time the junior partner, Mr. Mathey, became a member of the Board of Brokers. Everything up to that time was very prosperous with the firm, but about then their business began to fall off.

Their customers evidently began to fancy that something was going wrong. It to supposed that about this time Mr. Brnndage bed began te speculate without bis partner's knowieege. In the sunnier of 1879 Mr. Mathey took a trip out West.

While he was gone Brnndage kept speculating more heavily, and in the end lost all the assets of tbe firm, of which Mathey share, frfi.ono, and a private account of between $5,000 and $10400 disappeared also. Wbea Mr. Mathey returned home he found in addition to this that Bran-dago owed in the name of tbe firm other large debt. to parties in the street amounting in all to about $30,04. He bad also appropriated all the customers margins to satiety bis mania tor speculating.

The pomes tens victimised have commenced numerous suits against the firm. About January 1, of the present year, tbe firm was dissolved, Mr. Mathey leaving it. Tbe creditors seised Rru adage's seat in the Board, valued at $5,000, and Mathey, though not compelled to do so, honorably assigned h.s own seat to the creditors also. He moreover gave up everything he bad left from -the wreck of hto fen one.

Tbe catastrophe was biought about by the suspicions of Brun-dage's customers being (unfortunately too late for their own interests) aroused as to hto manner of conducting bu sloes. A dose scrutiny was kept upon his condact for some time, and tt was ascertained that Brundage, in addition to being fatally addicted to drink, was In the babit of turning the fluctuations value of stocks whlcb be bad purchased for customers, to bis individual benefit, bv making false representations to them. For instance, on one occasion, in 1869, be purchased for one party 06 shares of Hudson River Railroad stock at 148, and sold it almost immediately at 151. thereby realizing $1,600. He then informed tbe customer wbo bad ordered the purchase that tbe stock had gone up bsfore he bad time to buy.

In order to cover his tracks be would pass tbese stocks through another broker named Lons berg, instead of throogh his own office. The amount of injury be perpetrated by tbese dishonest transactions may be estimated from tbe fact that Mathey father loot $100.000 Mr. Dean, of Patterson, New Jersey, lost Mr, King, of New York, lost $100,800: Mr. Kash. of Treoton, Matbcy's unde, lost $3000, and Mr.

Sidney Curtis, of Brooklyn, lost $30,000 this tatter case being the more flagrant from the fact of Mr. Curt being at the time a minor and tbe more readily duped by Brun-dage's machinations. in the meantime Bru adage bos left for parts unknown, abandoning wife, family, and all. Hto own ruin to complete, as be to known to be entirely without anonev: but be did not after all succeed insofar ruining tbe prospects of hto partner, Mr. Mathey, as he seems to have contemplated doing.

During the post year or so Mr. Mathey has been eogagsd to a lovely young lady of this city, tho sister-in-law of Brundage, whose frtber is one of our wealthiest citizens. Brundage has all along oprwed the match, baying, ooubtless, an eye to bagging all the old gentleman's money himself, and be so far succeeded as to cause the match to be forbidden by tbo lady's parent. Mr. Matbesdid not, however, succumb to the plot against bis matrimonial design, but was secretly married to tee 70 no1 lady question about two months ago.

Borne tbree weeks since the secret was divulged to the parent, who were of course very wrathful, and a violent scene ensued, which, as is ever tbe case, terminated in the victory of maternal love over parental indignation, and injured innooenoe was triumphant. To satisfy all doubt, however, tho young couple wore immediately married over again, and are this evening to bold their wedding reception. It to unnecessary to add that cards will not be sent to Mr. Brundage. FASHION WEEK.

Close of the Lenten Henson Good Friday and Its Observance. A the sorrowful days of Lent are fast fading before the aoprosch of the glad rays of Easter morn, it would seem that tee weather had made up its inconsistent mind to harmonize with the occasion. To-day everything betokens the advent of glorious Spring, and tbo warm sepbyrs encourage timorous mortals to toy aside the trappings of winter. Amid such gnef-dipeiling circumstances some persons may be inclined to forget that the world is on tbe eve of tbe anniveraory of tbe most mournful and momentous event in It entire history. To-morrow throughout Christendom, the Lost Sapper and tbe Agony of tbe Saviour wlU be vividly present tn the minds of millions of devout believers.

In the Protestant Episcopal and Roman Catholic Chinches the L-uten season bas been garded as peculiarly sacred, and tbe religious ordinances and tbs discourses of tbe ministers are directed with special reference to the closing scenes of Christ's life on earth. The intense Interest culminated In tho lat week, which is known os Passion Week. During each day the churches are kept almost constantly open, and in tbe Catholic Church especially, devoted followers of (he Cross are to be found humbly demonstrating their pious grief in Redeemer's sorrow. Accor ft-to the depth of tee religious sentiment, is the tLflumce of tee Lenten season and so uni virsal to tee regard for Its observance, that its beginning generally marks the dose of balls, carnivals, aad such tike mirthful assemblages Although the theatres do not ciooe their doors, still Lent to ever regarded os an unfavorable period by managers, aud leading stars are reserved till after Its otow. la tho onward roll of events, men ore hurt learning to forget tbe old rites of the post, and were It not lor the erystalislng power of neltaion.

It is likely that even Lent would now be posting away without being noticed. Although the eiremony received it highest accomplishment in Cbnr, It nevertheless comas down fiom old Mosaic time, and must be regarded as one of tbe most ancient institutions to the world. Io tbo different Catholic Churches of this city, the mystic supper, at white Christ Mid, Do this 10 remembrance of me," will be repeated in tee most- solemnly impressive manner. Tbs churches will be darkened, and no music will resound through the saddened oitira until fbe dawn of Easter morn, when tbe altars will be gorgeously decked with flowers and light, and when joy will take tbe place of sorrow. To-morrow win be observed in tins city, even outside the churches, by a general suspeniSon of the ordinary business of Ute.
