The value of church property not
taxed In thla country is estimated
at over seven hundred millions. A
large portion of this property is

The CentennU'J appropriation
bill is now effectually shelved. It

The Arkansas rebelion has cul
minated in another bloody engage
ment between the Baxterites and
Brookesites. Both factions are mak
ing extensive preparations for a
war of extermination, and unless
the National Government shall in
terpose its strong arm between tho
beligerents, Little Rock will, within
the next forty-eight hours,
become the scene of the most horrid
butcheries and pillage. Our tele
graphic advices from "Washington
indicate that tho President has
under advice from the Attorney
General, decided to recognize
Brooks as the legally elected Gov
ernor, and will, if necessary, aid
him in restoring peace. It is hardly
probable, however, that Baxter
would attempt forcible resistanco in
such an event. Although he has
announced his determination
not to yield until the
Legislature shall determine tho
validity of his claims, the prospect
for assembling a quorum of that
body is even now very dubious.
In fact members of the Arkansas
Legislature are not disposed to risk
their necks in a military camp as
long as they can safely remain at
home.
Whatever may bo the upshot of
this disgraceful Arkansas muddle
it is to be hoped that tho National
Government will assert its authori
ty to protect and defend the citizens
of that State against anarchy and
usurpation.
WHY HOT!
Gen. Logan did a good thing
when he opposed the bill to "aid
geological and other surveys in the
several States." The object of
which was to turn over the work
which has been done by scientific
men who have devoted their lives
to this object, to the army. Let
these two branches of the service
be kept distinct only as far as each
may give aid to the other in the
irogress of the work. Men whose
Ives are devoted to the defense of
the country, are, except in rare in
stances, as in the case of Gen. Al
vord, too busy to give much time to
scientific research. The country
will be with the common sense view
of Gen. Logan in his decision.
Republican.
The Republican exhibits inexcu
sable Ignorance about the object of
this bill, unless, indeed, its com
mendations of General Logan's
course are intended to cover the
tracks of certain scientific grabbers
upon the public treasury.
The bill In question simply
provides that the geological and
othsr surveys in the Territories shall
. hereafter be conducted partly
or wholly by army officers. Now
-why shall tho Government expend
at sums annually for establishing
the reputation of obscure political
geologists who devote half of their
time to lobbying? "Why shall the
psople of the United States be taxed
for their especial benefit as long as
they have a competent corps of
army officers under pay whose
present chief occupation is billiards,
draw poker or seven-up ?
Why shall these wards of the na
tion lounge in idleness around the
pompous and useless military quar
ters In Washington, .New York and
Chicago, when their time could be
more profitably employed in explor
Jag the mountains and canyons of
Montana, Idaho, Colorado, New
Ifexjoo ot Arizona. Were not the
first explorations and surveys of the

Twenty years ago it was not con
sidered improper for the navy or
war departments to organize ex
ploring expeditions to the Rocky
Moontains, up the Amazon River
and over the snow-capped Andes of
South America. To-day an explor
ing expedition of American officers
is in the. heart of Palestine en
deavoring to discover the missing
links between ancient and modern
history. And still the Republican
praises General Logan for his stupid
opposition to a measure which would
render life in our regular array
tolerable for an ambitious and ener
getic man even in times of peace.
As it is now there is no opportu
nity for honorable distinction in the
army, excepting in inglorious skir
mishes with treacherous Indian
scalpers on the frontier and bloody
rioters in the South.
Inasmuch as these officers were ed
ucated at the expense of the people,
and are now maintained by public
taxation, why shall the people pay
outsiders for servioes which these
officers are capable, and we have
good reasons to believe, anxious
to perform?
