PECKSNIFFISM.

Foremost among. -the-senators whose characters appear to hay been irre trievably ruined by the exposures made be- SSSSVitam and =^? no less a person than Vice-President Colfax.

without remembering it very positively.' But his bank account was . examined, find it showed that on the 22nd of June he deposited that exact amount to his credit. No sooner hkd this charge been sheeted home to him than Mr Colfax started ;off to attend Teligious and temperance meetings in Philadelphia and Baltimore.; for this perjured bribe-taker is a highly religious man, and in the former city hie was received with shouts of applause by the Young Men's Christian Association; ..■flfhile in Baltimore he made a speech full of- cant and casuistry,, in which he huffled forth some moral reflections about the world being " full of human trials ajid sufferings, unjust aspersions, arid breaking hearts." Most people with any sense of shame in them are of opinion -that it would be more decent on the part of the. Vice-President Colfax to go into re tirement for a while, and the Tribune acl ministeis the following well-merited re buke to the Philadelphians : "We may inform the young brethren of the Christian .association that when they raise shouts of applause for a man in Mr Colfax's ■ posi tion they set hundreds of thousands of other young men asking—as they asked during the Methodist Book-Concern troubles, —whether there is any more necessary con :nection between' morality and the vrorship i>f Christ than between morality and the of Pan. Membership in these asso ciations is fast increasing a certificate as to integrity V let them take care that it floes not°raise a presumption of awaut of in tegrity." - .
