Ryland Chapel, in South "Washington, Was the Mecca toward which many a pious Methodist wended his way yesterday, and both morn-ins and evening services were participated in by as large congregations as were ever seen in the Church.

Dr. Deale officiated in the morning, and at night Rev. B.Peyton Brown, the presiding elder Of this District, preached an eloquent and instructive sermon, taking for his text the fifth Verse, third chapter of Second Thessa-lonians: "The Lord direct your paths." Contrary to general expectations, no allusion was made to the existing difficulty In the Church, the speaker evidently not caring to han-flle the subject on Sunday. It was observed yesterday that nearly all the old members of the Congregation were in their seats, and the opinion prevailed that in the course of a week the present difficulty could be satisfactorily adjusted. Thus fer but two members have applied forand received lettera of withdrawal Messi 3.

J. Murtagh and Dr. Wright, his brother-in-law. A meeting of the Sunday school teachers was held yesterday to choose a superintendent in place of Mr. Murtagh, but no choice could be agreed upon, and Mr.

It D. Harmon, the assistant superintendent, was Instructed to fill the office until other action was taken. Under the rules of the conference a minister is compelled to go where ho. is assigned, and even if Dr. Dealo desired to withdraw from his present charge he could not do so unless ordered by the bishop of bis district.

He moved into the parsonage last Thursday, and was most cordially received by a majority of his congregation, who took occasion to express their gratification at being presided over by such a scholarly and eloquent laborer in the vineyard.

SOME RECOLLECTIONS OF GENERAL GARFIELD AND OTHERS. War Times at Chattanooga The President as General Boseerans' Chief of Staff General Haicn.

HcCook, and Others Interesting Incidents. Although I did not know President Garfield when he was a farmer lad or a tow-path boy, I did know him when he was General Rosc-crans chief of staff, bearing the rank of major-general, General Rosecrnns being then commander of the Army of the Cumberland. It was at Chattanooga, about the time of the battle of Chickamauga, that I met General Garfield. Being at that time the wife of an officer and an inmate of the military family of General Wagner, who was commandant of the post, I met from time to time many of the officers of the Army of the Cumberland, among them General Alex. McCook, and poor ColonelDan McCook God resthis kind soul-Generals Hazcn, Willich, and our own Colonel Jack McKibben, and General Garfield, who was introduced to me one evening by General Wagner.

I well remember that I had a wheezy piano in my great, carpctlcss room, which had been brought to headquarters for my use from a deserted house, and that I played for the delectation of my visitors that evening "WE'LL KALLY 'HOUh-D THE FLAG" and several of the war songs of the day, for which offense I have some fear the President may yet prefer charges and have me dis-mlsscd from the public sen-ice. General Roecrans' chief of staff was just at that time a very busy man, as Chattanooga was then the front, and it was not certain, even after the battle of Chickamauga, that we would be able to hold the city. For several days it rained almost constantly, and our pontoons were in imminent danger of being washed away, which would have left us at the mercy of the enemy. The outside world supposed Chattanooga to be safe at that time, and had no idea of the anxiety or of the unremitting vigilance of the officers of THE AKMY Or THE CUMBERLAND. General Garfield, in speaking of the dispatches which were constantly coming in night and day, said he kept a chair by the head of his bed, upon which he piled the dispatches brought in by the couriers during the night, when he was often permitted to sleep but a few minutes at a time, and that by morning the chair and the floor around it were piled with papers.

One day during my stay at the commandant's, I having a little supervision over domestic affairs, had the of ordering a plate to be laid for General Gar field. An extra plate was the only preparation considered necessary for company then. There was no sound of cake-beating orsmcll of delicious dainties from the kitchen, nor agitation in the wine cellar, but hard-tack, cisflec, brown sugar pork, beans, and potatoes we were always sure of AND GENERALLY FRESH BEEF, thouch' the latter was comidered rather as a luxury than a necessity. When the boys could manage to drive a stray cow into the back yard, and feed her on horse rutious we kept a family cow, and had milk for our cooking and our coffee, which General Wagner drank without thinking but what one of his own cows had been driven down to supply Instable with the lacteal fluid; but somebody was sure to leave the gate open every few days, which invariably took advantage of, not fancying being milked every hour or two by a different person. On the occasion of GEXEltAL GAEFIEI.D DINING WITH CS we had all the luxuries save milk; our cow having taken French leave we were obliged to drink our coffee black; but we had "sure biscuits, and though they were shortened with fat fried out of bacon, and had little brown specks in them, yet three or four hours of horseback riding every day gave us appetites which more than made up for deficiencies in cooking; and I doubt not General Garfield enjoyed the dinner more than he will many a one in the White House.

During the meal he read aloud from a paper containing news to us, though some weeks old, an article going the rounds, called "The House that Jeff Built," which we all enjoyed immensely, partly because it was an emanation of the times and partly because it was read excellently and with such hearty appreciation. Perhaps my reader woulu ask, Did General Garfield look then as he does now? and I should be obliged to answer no The years which have stolen the roundness and the roses from my face, and brought to It lines and shadows, have also MADE CHANGES IN HIS, though it "will always preserve that strong individuality which makes it eminently a face to itself, separate and distinct from all other faces. Although in perfect health, and living much out of doors General Garfield's face was neither browned nor reddened by exposure, as was every other face belonging to the army. The whiteness of the complexion, together with the peculiarly clear-cut features, nature having made- in them no uncertain nor wavering line, made me think always of General Garfield's as the marble face of the Army of the Cumberland. Not having seen the General from that time until five years ago, I found his complexion had darkened, or taken a more reddish cast, while the accumulation of flesh had, to some extent, marred the firmness and clearness of the outlines of the face in short, had spoiled, to a certain extent, its statuesqueness, but yet, when the time comes for making a bust of Garfield his face, and head will be found to furnish AN ESPECIALLY FINE MODEL.

Fortunately, President Garfield's war record needs no touching up by me. His record as soldier and statesman having been so amply written of, it Is only mine to tell such little common-places as came "to my notice when he was my military neighbor, which happened from General Rose-cram? and General Wagner's headquarters begin but a few doors apart. Although at that time I was what is sometimes designated as a "little, plain goose," I recognized General Garfield as a remarkable man among remarkable men. Had I been told that he would one day be President it would not have surprised me greatly; but. as I never expected to hold or to want an office, I should not have seen that a President could be of any possible use to me.

I was even pathetically ignorant of the fact that GENERAL HAZES, NOW CHIEF of the Signal Service Bureau, then brigade commander. I met occasionally at commandant head quarters, lie was then called one of the handsomest men in the Army of the Cumberland, and was notable for his efficiency and exactness as an officer, for having every duty performed to the letter and to the minute, and for having the most orderly and perfectly policed command in the army. I well remember the exactness with which his little city of tents was pitched and the unimpeachable cleanliness of the streets between them. Even the tents seemed to understand whose command they belonged to, and to keep themselves spotless and white. GENERAL ALEXANDER Jl'COOK, late of General Sherman's staff, now colonel Sixth Infantry, and of the famous fighting family of Mc-Cooks, was also an occasional visitor at commandant headquarters, though I met him oflener months earlier at Camp Xcvin, Kentucky.

General McCook was then considered an excellent and efficient officer, although quite young. (He was acting major-general) His punishments of men for infractions of military rule, although never cruel nor unnecessarily harsh, were sometimes very whimsical and original inventions. I remember once, in riding out along the lines, that we came to some "boys'" who were undorgoing punishment by nntroling back and forth with rails instead of carbines; the poor fellows had to come to a present arms as we with their rails, which produced most ludicrous effect, although to me it was pathetic as well as ludicrous. General McCook managed to preserve his dignity while passing, though I noticed a suspicious twitching about the comers of his mouth, which dispersed into a broad smile and inward laugh when we were fairly past. The McCooks, so far I know them, are A GENEROUS, RACE, and General Alexander McCook is no exception to the race certain it is that he can never reproach himself for any unkindness shown his dead brother, Colonel Dan, who was something younger and more delicate than himself.

Though always scolding him in his rough, good-natured way, he was always taking upon his own broad shoulders every burden possible, which would otherwise have fallen upon his brother. COLONEL DAN M'COOK'S DEATH was one of the few army deaths which brought tears to my eyes, for the news of it brought up to me with painful vividness his last act toward me, which was one of thoughtful kindness. It was on the march through a desolate portion of Tennessee that he one day came up with us, jaunted, joked, and chatted for a while and at last passed on. In about half an hour a courier came to me with a package of lunch from Colonel McCook only sandwiches, to be sure, but Imagine the luxury ofsandwiehes in a desert, or a country so desolate that we could not, for that day anyway, hope for anything bettor than rations of hard-tack, coffee, and bacon. Although with a ravenous appetite from being so much out-doors, I seemed to have a lump in "my throat as I ate the sandwiches, for I had a strong suspicion that Colonel Dan McCook was eating bard-tack while I ato his sandwiches.

His was as kind a heart as ever was stilled by a rebel bullet If any one has read this with the expectation of reading history or the heroic acts of heroic men, he or she must necessarily be disappointed, for, as I have already said, the grand acts of these men's lives have been duly recorded, and it was my intention only to write of such common-place incidents connected with their lives in those eventful times as were personally known to me. JESSIE. The statement that a number of Baltimore belles will be present at the polo contest at the Rink to-night, between the team from Biddle Street Rink and the Washington Club, ha3 caused the lady friends of the latter to prepare to turn out in force to rejoice with the Washington's in victory or to mount with them in defeat. As both teams have been selected from a score of crack players, a lively and interesting game may be anticipated. District Brevities.

With the clearing out of the last rem-nauU of winter, there is great activity In boating circles.

At Cumberlamfs and Paseno's the sound of the hammer and calking-mallet make music suggestive of a busy season. Already some of the more enthusiastic oarsmen have had their craft out and warmed up their muscles by a spin to and from Little Falls, with only the conventional flannels to bar out Yenuor's northwestern blizzard. FOREPAUGH'S BKJ CIRCUS. Tho Street Parade To-day-Other Attractions Burins ttxe Week. The principal portion of the great circus under the control and ownership of tho veteran Adam Forepaugh arrived yesterday.

The tents were pitched and so many were required that it seemed as if an army had encamped in the vicinity of Ninth and streets. It is to be hoped that the Signal Service will attend to the weather, so that there may be no interruption to the street parade, which is expected to be the most elaborate and magnificent that has ever been attempted by any circus organization. It was a happy thought, the credit of which it is believed to be due to Mr. Charles IL Day, to Illustrate the departure of Lalla Rookh from Delhi and to secure the handsomest woman in America to Impersonate Tom Moore's Immortal heroine. It is stated that the enormous $200,000 has been expended for this moving panorama, in which the beautiful Oriental princess is seen reclining iu a sumptuous howdah, borne upon the back of a monster elephant, said to be the largest ever brought to this country, most richly caparisoned, followed by a train of maids of honor upon small Arabian horses and cavaliers in glittering armor, mounted upon "Steeds with their housings of rich silverspun, Their chains and poitrels glittering in the sun And camels, tufted o'er with Yemen's shells.

Shaking in every breeze their light-toned bells. Then will follow guards and a gorgeous retinue, which will altogether form a magnificent and picturesque spectacle, such as has never before been witnessed. The attractions within the canvas will be in perfect keeping with the extensive street display, and will fully maintain the high reputation that Mr. Forepaugh has forso many years enjoyed as a circus manager. The menagerie department has been greatly enlarged overformer years by the addition of many rare specimens in the animal kingdom never before imported, notably: Two woolly elephants, twenty performing elephants, performing giraffes, trained to work in harness; thelargest living hippopotamus, and manyothers.

The circus entertainment will be given in two rings, with different performances in each, and among the artists may be mentioned the Selbini and Villion troupe of gymnastic bicyclers, Madame Maria Ashby, the dashing bareback equestrienne Mile. Victoria, female trapezist; Mile. Ella Zuila.thefemaleBloudin. and a host of tho most celebrated members of the arenic profession. THE TWO BENEFITS.

Tho two theatres, recognizing the fact that Washington is essentiallya circus town, wisely determined to refrain from competing with Forepaugh's great show, and so there will not be performances at cither place during the early part of the week. On Wednesday night the opera of "The Pirates of Penzance" will be given by our popular amateurs for the equally popular manager of the popular National Theatre. Mr. Kinsley now appeals to his numerous friends, and, If they respond as they should, and it Is expected that they will, the theatre will not be large enough to hold the crowd. On the following night, Thursday, "Olivette," which has been so successful during the past season, will be presented at Ford's Opera-Housc on the occasion of the first benefit in this city of Mr.

J. Louis Ford, who has been the successful manager of that place of amusement. He has. made hosts of friends, and the Opera-House will nodoubt be crowded. 3ILLE.

SARA EEnNTIARDT. The sale of seats for the very brief season of the great French tragedienne will commence this morning at the National Theatre. But two per formances will be given on Friday night, when Frou-Frou will be given with Mile. Bernhardt as Gilbcrle, and a matinee on Saturday, when she will sustain her great role of Marguerite Gautier, in Dumas play of "Canaille." It is natural to suppose that the desire to see the wonderful Sara is very great, and the plays selected are those in which she appears to the best advantage and in which she has gained her greatest successes. THEATRE COMIQUE.

The announcements fortius wcekatthoComlque are first. Miss Mabel Florence and Ward L. Hor-ton, in the great play of Faith or, A Daughter's Wrongs," in which the lady will introduce her wonderfully-trained dogs Hector, Mack, Lily, and Tommy.

MEDICAL CHARLATANS. How to Oct Bid of Quacks Views of a Physician. To the Editor of Tlie Republican: The State of Illinois found a remedy for the expulsion of medical charlatans from her borders, and any other State, Territory, or municipality can do likewise: but, if the people can endure tbemJthe medical profession, as such, will probably not complain. When they get in the way they are generally knocked down, a la Health Officer, and there is an end of it. The public never did and never will fully appreciate tho medical profesjion.

Its members do not expect it. The true physician Iuu the welfare of his paticnU at heart, and "often labors for them with 110 expectation of reward, while the quack is ever on the gi vive for his But. as bad as the quack doctors are, they do answer a good purpose sometimes. There are many clever people who never pay the physician anything if avoidable. The doctors soon find them out, and it is not long before they are deprived of their advice.

THEY THEN ENCOUNTER THE QUACKS who, while working for reputation and notoriety, practice upon them. Then tucrc arc those who prefer the services of charlatans, aud for many reasons contact with such is distasteful to the physician. By contrast we judge of most men and things. If we" were all good, goodness would lose its present market value. There was a time when the sportsman thought he had iu the laminated steel-barreled, muzzle-loaditigshot-gun of Greener.

Scott. Moore, and other celebrated English makers all that could be desired in a gun but Io inventive genius has evolved the breech-loader, end the former is among the things that were. The same may be said of the old key-winding watch and the modern stem-winder, of the old-fashioned stage and our Pullman palace, of the barges of lorry years ago nnu our ocautttui uristoi, 01 tnc Washington Gaslight Company's stuff and electricity at the Riggs, and so ad infinitum through all the steps and phases of our progress. To whom arc we indebted for all these blessings? Probably to no one man, but to honest men and women, who had the comfort and convenience of the people at heart, as well as their own. What has tncijuncK ever done to ameliorate the sufferings of mankind DID HE DISCOVER VACCINATION, anaesthesia, sulphate of quinia, carbolic acid, the hypodermic syringe, or a thousand other remedies and appliances so useful to us Has he overmada one surgical instrument that supplied a needed want? You may safely say no and.

if he had, he would have patented his discovery and made suffering humanity pay handsomely for his knowledge. So all the material advances and discoveries in the science of medicine and surgery have been made by members of the professiou, and not by quacks. Theoretically, medicine is popularly given the second place among sacred vocations, the first being allotted to the clergy; but, practically and collectively, I say, in comparison, that medicine is the most responsible, and hat is most responsible and vital is the most sacred. Medicine not be measured by men. but properly es- tecmea ana tnose uencient in tne requirements of what a docter should be will be repudiated by the profession, who are the only proper judges of physicians.

If any of these quacks could accomplish one thousandth part of what they say they do the public would not be long in makiug more brass horses for city ornamentation. Iowa Circle is probably the handsomest In Washington, Jind I firmly believe that the United States would not deny to any man or woman who discovers A REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION a reproduction of their outlines In gold, mounted on a magnificent pedestal of bronze therein, as a feeble testimonial of gratitude for services rendered. The Star said there is nothing sacred about the practice of medicine. The people know there ought to be, and our confidence is the least shaken in those men who live up to and inculcate by their daily example a lofty individual morality, regardless of their vocation. To hold in the hollow of one's hand the lives of hundreds of persons is a sacred trust, the Star to the contrary, and honor and distinction should be accredited to whomsoever properly discharges his duties under such responsibility.

What would be thought of a railroad company employing inefficient locomotive engineers? ora ferry company placing inexperienced pilots at their wheels? And yet out law-givers suffer the weak, the poor, the sick to be maimed ana acstroyea involuntarily by MEN AND WOMEN r-RETENDINO to be physicians and refuse protection on the plea that interference would be class legislation. Is it class legislation to require a pilot to discern a red light from a blue one? If so, why? To prevent at some future time the destruction of human life which might occur were he color-bliud. Then there ought to be some legislation that would require a physician to discern measles from smallpox, for a color-blind quack can destroy about as many lives as a similarly possessed pilot; the oulv difference Deing that he runs them under one at a time. The physician, pilot, locomotive-engineer, el id omne genus, should be protected in their vocations from tho encroachments or charlatans, not so much for their own benefit as for the public welfare.

T. DANIEL, M. D. "The Republican" and Public 31 rail. To the Editor of The Jlepublican Although I do not propose at this time to follow the example ofMr.

Daish and have The Republican discontinued, still I have been greatly pained and shocked during the last week to sec so much space, for three or four days, devoted to a description of the death and burial of a noted prostitute. All parents will agree that that is not the kind of literature they want placed before the eyes of their children. Why does not The Republican espouse the cause of our young people, and withhold from its columns all that is pernicious to their morals? Has it never occurred to you, Mr. Editor, that It is possible to furnish your readers with too much news, and "all for tnroa cents?" Regretting the necessity for this remonstrance, I am, with sincerity, MRS. A.

L. B. We have the utmost respect and regard for our fair correspondent aud the views which she presents; but, as the publishers of a live newspaper at the National Capital, we believe that it is our duty to give, as nearly as possible, a daily photograph of the incidents and events which tako place within our sphere. Wo cater iu the matter of news to every element of society, and if, in its report of the doings and transactions of poor, weak humanity, as we find it, there should appear a phase of existence that shocks an clement that knows not of the existence of such frail creatures as arc referred to, our only response is a3 old as time itself that blessed are one-half the people of this world that know not how the other half exist. With malice toward none, and with charity for all," we respectfully submit that our duty as journalists is to present the important features of life at the Capital without regard to the peculiar sentiments of any sect or creed, or to the personal bias or whims of any element of Capital society.

If tho moral tone as well as the political sentiments of this country can be placed in tho absolute care of The National Rkturlican wc assure our correspondent that the world will progress with much more serenity and with more equal and exact Justice toward oar poor fellow-creatures than has ever been heretofore attained by the efforts of any newspaper management.

To the Editor of The Republican Dear Sir: Letters of inquiry from school officials in all sections of the country indicate a general attendance of the children of the public and private schools at my great exhibition the coming season. Since consolidating with the Great Loudon Show my collection of rare wild beasts affords the most comprehensive and instructive study of the animal kingdom of any menagerie iu the world.
