Patterson on % Qur Indian Policy,” - Interesting Extracts from the Religious Press. Programme of - Services in the .-Churches To=Day._ Episcopal and Roman Cathelic Calendars for the Week. A Variety of Interesting Religions Rerding Matter. The Chenoy matter has recently come sgain 1o the surface under.circumstances of more than ordinary interest. In May, 1872, Messrs. Calk- ins, Jameson, and Cleaveland, who owned pews or parts of pews in Christ Cburch, filed & bill in chancery against the Bev. Dr. Ghszsy.nnd }us wardens and vestrymen, praying an injunction sgainst the further ministrations of the former in that church, because, us they slleged, Dr. Chenoy had been *deposed “ from the ministry of the Church of God.” The defendants filed answers; denying, among other things, the le- gality of the alleged deposition. Upon thoissue raiced on this branch of the case, the proceed- ings of the ecclesiastical tribunals are lisble to boreviewad by the civil courts for the purpose of ascertaining whether there was ever any ec- elosiastical tribunal st all, and, if so, whother it had jurisdiction of the subject matter and of the on. The complainants’ counsel proposed to cnt off this branch of the investigation, by es- tablishing the proposition that, in the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, a Bishop possssses the power, inherent in his office, of de- posing and suspending his presbyters, and that therefore 1o matter whetherDr. Cheney had been canonically tried or not, usay, evenif he had not been tried at all, the validity of the & tence cowd not be inguired into\y the ci court. On the other hand, defendanta’ counsel insists that if a presbyter has had no trial, or if it transpires that the reverend gentlemen who undertake to try him, do not constitute a court, which i8 equivalent to notrial st all, the procoed- ing is wholly void, and €0 is any sentence based thareon. Upon the question of inherent author- ity, the complainants have alreadyadduced much testimony, and the defendants expect to do the game. Bishop Whitehouse testifies strongly in favor of the possession by Bishops of power jure divine to bind and loose—to depose and sus- pend ; and with him, the Rev. Samuel Chase, D. 1),, substantially concurs. _ As the Bishop set tho prosecution in motion, and Dr. Chase was one of the presbyters who insisted on acting 8s & court, after one of the panel of five originally select onbehalf of the accused failed to appear, the complainants natorally sought additional evi- dence, and have taken the cl;&aaitiuna of Bishop Whittingham, Bishop Odenheimer, the Hon. Murray Hoffman, Dr. Fulton, Dr, Seymour, and the Rev. John Henry Hopkios, Jr. (better known as the ’;dl.)‘erpetnfl curate™), who wns for some years editor of the Church Journal. Of these witnesses, Bishop Whittingham de- clines to answer the questions, on the ground of failure of memory and the mental strain which e would ba necessarily subjected to; Judge Hoffman declares the sentence of a Biehop, pro- nounced upon_a presbyter who had not upon trial been found guilty of any offence, would be sbsolutely void, but” Hopkins is confident that whatever ‘& Bishop doos is -decisive, whother canonical or mot. Bishop Odenheimer, mpon cross-examination, _states’ that the Church of “Eugland, ' in = ino colomies ~of Groat ~ Drusul Daviug _ Government, i8 slmntel? substantially as_the Episcopal Church in this country, and whero in sich colonies it isnot sttempted by tho lotters patent ‘appointing a Bishop to impart coercive jurisdiction, such Bishop has the same authority s 5 Bishop n the United States, and the latter 0o more than the former. B Judge Hoffman ssys he has not examined the subject sufficiently to_form or state an opinion. TJohn Henry Hopkins insista that it is no matter bow that is. =1, The importance of this point to the defendants is obvious. A long series of decisions has -set- tled the law, 80 far a8 the Church of England is concerncd, that & Bishop cannob exercise’ coer- cive jurisdiction except as empowered 8o to do by the laws of the State, or the eement of the partios; that in such respects bo does not act inlate officii. A sentence of suspension or deposition cannot therefore_be inflicted except in accordance with the provisions of the Iaw or the agrecment, and that in all cases the presby- ter must recsive s legal or canonical trial. - Among the questions propounded by Mr. Fuller in_cross-examination of Bishop White- honze and Judge Hoffman, was one as to the effect it would have upon & sentence of deposi- tion mlswfully prononnced uson & presbyter if 8 Bishop were himself deposed for pronouncing such s sentence. Dr. Whitehonse insists that tho sentence upon the presbyter would remain unchanged, while Judge Hoffman testifies that the senfende upon the Bishop would operate as & remission or vacation of the other sentence. The investigation is calculated to thorooghly lear up and define the statua of the Protestant Episcopal Church in this country. The com- lainant’s witnesses generally admit a serious erence of opinion in tne Church upon the subject of the powers-of the Episcopate, and the depositions show there is such difference in opinion between the witnesses themselves. ‘The defendants have taken no evidence as yet, but they believe they can prove that the coercive jurisdiction exercised by Bishops does not fiow from the power of order, but is do- rived from grant by Btate or camon law or consent of ies, and must be exercised rccordingly, and that the sentenca of a Bishop not pronounced sccording to the prescriptions of the governing canons ia utterly void. They proposs to taks the testimony of & vast lggy of divines sad learned men to establish The original controvarsy involves the question of the doctrine of the Church upon_the vexed subject of baptismal Tegeneration.

At the time the bill was filed one of them had not been in the church edifice for years, another had long before rentad his pew, and the third was high in office in another parish, end refused to sell his pew in this one, thongh offered its cost and interest, - Tho suffar- ings of theso complainants, in view of the Rev. Dr. Chenoy's ministrations, must have been of an exceedingly severe character. They ars cortainly likely to be protracted. They have Dever pought relie? in any. of the | meetings of the parish of Christ Church. On the contrary, the wardens and vestrymen have been, by a unanimous vote, di- rected to employ Dr. eney. The guery is again inevitable, whether the usafractory right of a pev-owner gives him a standing in_a, court of equity to enjoin an entire congrogation from listening to the clergyman of their choice, such pow-owner never having objected by voice or vote to such action on their psrt. The defend- snts ‘must necessarily obey the - corporntion of which they are officers, and it is for any ‘' ghare- holder” in the enterprise to object at the proper timo and place before he comes into court to complain. The case hn\-ing been set for a hear- ing on the 2d of June, Mr. Faller, of counsel for tho defendants, applied for furthor tims, and filed an afidavit in m'Bport of his application, in .which he'set forth the vast ronge of inquiry ‘openedup by the complainants, and tho fact fhat his time had boen substantially occupied in daneing attendsnos ou the gotting inof tho com- Iainants’ proof. This statoment was ng, B encp with tho aasartion that tho de: ponent had not oleboratel to any further extent Forwant of time. As it was, we should think it Tould 1, if printed, about wo columns of this aper. E I‘:’lr. Judd ently resisted the motion. Ho intimatod that 1t was essential to the peace of the Chureh that the controversy should come to. an end. Ho insisted that the aflidavit was. insufli- cient. S . Chiof Justice Williams thought the statement ‘mado ont good grounds for an extension of time. Counsel for defendants had shown reasonable diligence. The caso had ?leaed to a wide, and to himuna:&ecled., field of litigation. Tho cause was worthy of careful preparation and consideration. e “The Court S:Tudga Williams he)'.ni a rigid disciplinarien of tho orthodox type, had been ruling against tho dofendan:s up fo this time) bad not heretofore fully understood the scope of the case, and had supposed the issue an exceed- ingly narrow one, but it seemed from the sction of the complainants that this was not so. The importance to the Church of a speedy decision ‘was not as great as that such decision should ba correct in'itself whenever arrived a$, It was then suggested that perhaps counsel might agree to a stipulation embodying what tho defendants expected to prove by their witnessos, and tho matter stood ovor to the Sth instant, when Mr. Fuller appeared with twenty closely written ‘pages of foolacap, which he was about half the stipulation he desired Mr. Judd to eij To B CONNTICUTIONAL- this xequest the latter gentleman found himself unable to accede, andthe case sccordingly went over to the first Mondsy in Ootober. The urgency of the complainants jusk ot this partio- nlar juncture arose from the fact that tho Bupréme. Court meets but once o yesr in this division, and tEat in September. 1f, therefore, this case is decided in favor of the defendants, another year must roll round ‘before the matter can be heardin the highest tribunal, and probably eightcon moaths beforo s decision is reached. If the complainants win, and the defendants appeal, the will still continue to officiate for at least that pe- riod of time, and the pangs of the complainants remain unassuaged. TUpon the whole, the result is rather evenly belanced, both sides being thoronghly confident of succees. It is imposeible at this st&fi:flto pro- dict the ontcomo of the struggle, but it begins to be now evident that the counsel for the Rev. Dr. Cheney have more solid legal ground to stand on than has been generally suspected. Tt is entirely clear that if the reverend gentle- man has never been lawfully tried, that is to £sy, by any _ecclesiastical court, canopical- ly ' comstituted, this case is at an end. I{ ghould also be remembered that ‘none of the uestions now raised were pnssod upon by the gnpmma Court in the former case, or, if atall, not in their present shape. Nor has Judge Williams 28 yet-adjudicated upon them,—counsel for defondant having refrained from 4 them upon the demurrer before that gentleman, In fact, the cases are entirely different,and the one now on the carpet may receive an entirely different solutior. i 1t is one thing for eivil courts to decline to in- terfere with disciplinary proceedings sgainst & clergyman. It is quite another when the courts #re callad on to decide upon the property rights of third persons, not parties to such alleged ec- clesiastical action. 5 Taken in every aspect, this cogo is perhaps as important in its bearings as any that has over ‘been brought into court in this country. OUR INDIAN POLICY. The Rev. Dr. Patterson, the former pastor of . Xotaraon Danle.Drachptarian Chureh, pranonnaca upen Qur Indian Policy” to the extentof threo long columns in the current number of the In- tertor. 'Tho subject is treated in an original and independent manner. He docs not impeach either of the two great political partics. Ho thinks they =like desorve whatever praise or censure belongs to sincere end earncst sttompis to raise figs from thistlos; to civilize and Chris- tianize savages on heathen principles. Nothing ismore remarkable in our public affairs than the exc:filionn.l treatment of the Indians.

Ho-has great respect for William Penn, but none whatever for Quaker principles in a world of minfot men that cannot be governed one year by them.

Not so those lees favored by fortune.” Craning necks ; heads looking a8 if, through some fresk of Nature, they had been affixed to the body in a decidedly opposite direction to that ordained in the origina) plan ; even outspoken wonder following the first gape of purprise,—is the manner in which ces autres gens greet the firat individual who dons anew and to them singular fashion. Such has been noticeably the case in this city recently, in rospect to s certain proportion of the people’ who are not prepared to see the HIGH BUFFS AND CLOSE-FITTING SKIRTS, guiltless of pannier, which have obtained in Eastern cities until they are almost becoming. ob- solete and yielding to newer innovations. Fash- {fon-writers tell us of them, but the public in general bave not seen them, and the lady who first ventnres upon the street thusarrayed at- tracts a8 mu ch attention a8 a first-claes circus. New York has an opportunity to air all her imported novelties on the promenade, so that the most vulgar eye soon becomes accustomed to the most outre fancies in drees, and the girl- gamin who sweeps the crossing not infrequently makes berself an animated caricature of Madame Haut-ton, in her desire to emulate that fastidious Iady’s elegant, but novel, attire . Then the Jerome-Park races afford auothor op- portunity for all the world to see the last most costly and recherche importation from “la belle Franco.” Here a sest in the Grand Stsnd is quite as desirable a5 & sont ‘at the Grand Opers, and Mamms, with marriageable dsughters, secks it eagerly, in direct ratio to her anxiety for eligible partia for her fair daughters. Worth toilettes pre- dominate, and, if Papa possibly groans as he pays the bills, he consoles himself, or Mamma consolos him, with the hope that soms other fol- low will do it before long, if Arabells or Ara- minta are only properly brought forward. En routs to the Park, in all sorts of vebicles, these fair dames are visible in all their glary to their Jess-favored fellow-mortals who go a-foot. New Yorkers are not easily sstonished; andif, as the Danbury man remarks, “They like fresh oranges, but soon suck them dry,” it is not of literary matters alone that this is true, but equally #0 in respect to any new fashion. Miss Exclusive woars the Medici ruff to-day; Miss ‘Upper-Ten-Thousand sees and adopts it to-mor- row; and, before the end of the wook, it has gone down throngh every grade, losing caste and quality as it falls, until it dissppears throngh the general condsmnation of public disgust and patioty. Blowly it creeps from the esst- em to the western borddrs, and she is venturesome indeed who first makes her ap- pearance on the street in the long-heralded, but ‘scarcely-recognized novelty. A FEW OF THESE RUFFS have been visible here, but mostly with evening- dresses; and these who bave added them to street-costumes are fow and far between,—a gort of compromise being made, and the width , or,in some cases, & complete houle- versement 1s observable, from the fact of the wearers turning these plaited arrangements up- gide down. The pannier also still holds its own, and the great proportion of tho feminine com- munity still go humped like & camel.

The sutamn will probably find us quite differ- ently attired, no doubt, from what wo are at resent, for the traveling community will bring with them the prevailing costame of the European capitals, and of those cities which lio nearer them on the Atlantic coast. We also hear much of & grester simplicity in dress ; but, 80 far, itis hardly recognizable in prevailing costumes. The greatest innovation isin NORMANDY OAPS, which are no longer confined to the little ones, but have also been assumed by their elder sis- ters. “ A $30-bonnet, with a flower-garden on it,’s may answer for Mammsa, but it is by no meane the highest style of art for Mademoiselle. The high-crovmed cap, familiar to us through thy ashionable French nurse, and more recently be its being adopted and elaborated for her’little chargos, is now fhe thing. It is made of simple white Bwiss, or organdy, over a silk lining, or the lace frame provided by the milliners; hos 8 band of velvet ribbon aronnd it; a large bow on ; & knot of flowers ot the side; and long ends, knotted behind and falling below the waist. It forms the most ch and unique head-dress that has yet sppeared, andisan immense relief to the eye that has grown weary of the high stecples, overloaded With trimming, which have so long prevailed. It ehould be very popular, but its simplicity will make that improbable, 25 the great proportion of the American people seem to have caught the Dbarbario tastes of the aborigines, and revel in bright colors and profuse ornament. However, let us hope that the Normandy cap may be a suc- cess, for it gives a piquant Jook to the fair young {faces which it adorns, Next, let our fashionable ladies bewars how they let dress-makers at home CUT UP BICH MATERIALS. mtoinnumerable mfl]cs,plnihngsflfll. #0allo] etc. Thirty or forty yards of silk made into trimmings can never ba restored to its pristino state ; and, before many months, those who ean- not afford to throw sway a handsome dress be- cause it is out of styls, will lament the woeful extravagance and lack of taste which has over- loaded it with trimming. This oannot be taken because the marks of ita application will be too plainly visible. It would be wise, then, for thosa who are not yet ready” to accept umg‘:r outlines to use cheap, thin fabrics for the elabor- ate ones.

Imported costumes are trimmed very prettily with French lace ; but it does not mest with favor in the eyes of the exclusive classes here, and, slthough no doubt chesper in the first place, soon grows irredeemably rusty.

Not a lisp will be allowed at the expense of this stmosphere. Never, within my recollection, have we had so many dsys with which one could find abeolutely no fault, either under foot or ovorhead, as since this moath camein. Juno i8 almost invarisbly eharming in Manhat- tan; but this year sho has gurpassed herself. With noon-tides that demand mauslins, and midnights that make a blanket & delightful neceasity,—if one be so fortunnts 88 to be in bed at that hour,—one bas really nothing to ask of “OH Probabilities,” who has practically taken the place of the late Mr. Merrism, of Springfiold, ae Clerk of the Weathor. The city,—that is to say, the buildings, the parks, the avenues,—is looking ita very best at this moment; but the city, socially speaking, is almost at its dullest. With the slight exception of some hundeds of thousands of peopls, whose longest summer exoursion is a sail to Btaten Isl- and or an afternoon in Central Park, thers are, comparatively, few persona in town. The usual exodus, setting in with the ocean-crossing pleas- ure-seckars early in April, began to thin fash- ionable ranks six weeks eadlier than in i seasons. The impetus given to travel by the hordes that heve departed Expositionward started the other recreators cn their warm- weather wanderings weeka before they generally ledve home. Bo tranks are brought up from dust and cob- wobg ; ibe last pieces come up from the laun- dry; the final garments are wrung from modistes’ unwilling fingers; and away they go in every ‘boat and train that leaves the Metropolis. ' TRAVELING DRESSES aro one of the chief topics of discussion, just at present, in dressmakers’ drawing-rooms.. Is it best ta have a skirt and palonaise, ar two skirta” and basque, or & croes, of one skirt and very deep basque ? Ia it eafe to start with an entire gown of linen, or with only a duster ? These questions, simpla’though they seem, vex the cleverest modiste and har patrons. The doecis- ion has been generally given in favor of two pkirts and basque, and it id wise, n this stylo it is easy to put'the upper skirt and waist into s valise, don a_cambrip-akirt, hide the waut of . proper dra by, a lony duster | be cnmlon?\ofly n\fi;’nfl have a fresh waist and Tefr one’s toilstte with at the end of the journey. In a ceriain way, the ssme thing can be done with a polonsise; but that garment takes np much more room ina bag, fre- quently looks tumbled. after such cloee folding, and seems warmer in this_sesson than doss the other mode. Very fey suita for journeying ara made with & skirt like. the upper part. A black or very dark petticoat is almost ‘always the basis for. the costumo, and this is extreniely sensible a8 wall as pretty. Thelower portion of the dress " must, of necessity, get more or Jeas soiled in'the mud and dust of a lang trip, and, the.darker and - plainer it i#, the better. A black silk or bril- liantine petticoat, with flat folds for trimming, and a de boge or camel's bair redingote, 11 a vory trite and very, sstisfactory combination. (Isu't it s misfortune ihat the things one par- ticularly likes, everybody else particularly likes also?) The favor which the redingote hay found proves conclusively the growing desiro for simple, unornamented garments ; since nothing can excel it in its plainness, amounting almost to masculine_ severity. Camel's hair- cloth, or ‘what is called such, is a favorite fabric for travel- ing dresses; de boge is snother; and these are the best the market nffords, for they will not shrink or curl in the dampness,—most necessary virtues in anything which must be subjected to all tates of atmosphero. Bat best of all attires for feminine tourists is an old black silk. I ey 40ld, for the woman doeen't exist who would 60 lightly regard a new one 88 to devote it to car- wear. A new black silk has virtues many; but &n old one, if not too old, has tkem innumerable. A WANT UNSUPFLIFD. It is & great pity that & few of tho dear, old, low, closping turbavs, of half-a-dozen years ago, were not left us, to be used solely for traveling. There has never been a atgle sinco which wonld endure sleeping in, and leaning- sgainst window-frames, and bangs, and jams, 2a it would. It needed mo trimming. A velvet binding edged it; s veil covered it; and it was codl, aud Light, and comfortable every way. We shall nover havo anything like it, or to approach it sgain. Nothing now ever seams to resembla our ancient trensures till tho new itself becomes a thing of the past. Then, if it have any charm at all, wo grow aware of it through its absence. Howaver, the fact is, that there i3 positively not a single shape in hats fit to wear for journeying ; in other words, thers i no shape which Wil et mit of laying’ onc's head down. We women know that it 18 by no means always convenient to take off :mhlf v{.‘l::; ‘;emwlnt to rest our ‘weary caput on the of the seat, or the side of the “_l%dow. Our hair, 88 like :’a not, has been'done up'with the oxpresa purpose of keep- ing our hat on,—not to mention the chanca of our crimps being still on pins, nugly tucked up in the crown. We don’t want to be obliged to remove our head-covering; but we dowant n covering that will take a fow pokes and knocks without serious detriment ; and we have it not. ‘There is 8 somowhat nesrer approach to the par- ticular need in the lowered crowns and rolling rima of many of the new hats, 50 that thore is hope for the future. But, if tho shape is ot fault, e trimming is likewise. _Who can tsko com- fort on » dusty railway or damp steamboat, with 8 yard or two of delicate flowers and lace stream-~ ing down one’s back? A plain band of sillk-folds or ribbon, and, if one must have streamers, long ends of simple ribbon, is much the most suitable and satisfactory omnamentation for hack-hats: and, could an oxydized ornamernt be toleratad anywhere, it wold be there. ‘ When. the subjoct of traveling en the subject of travelin, ps comes up, it is difficalt o tell what not i"“m" . Ous doss- ot really require suyextra garment in these warm days. Still, it is not safe to set forth without s water-proof, and s heayy shawl sdds much to the comfort, even though it shonld not ance be needed to cover the shorlders. And- yet, with both these, & light wrap, like & cash- mere dalman, is almost indiepensable. If the threo . can be carried without serious inconven- ience, good ; take them. But, if one has tobe dispensed with, it must be the shawl ; for to go. away from home any length of tims without n' water-proof is 3 good deal like setting forth in slippers and leaving high boots behind, We are getsing to be almost as bad a8 our trans-Atlantic relatives in regard to water-proofs and umbrel~ 123, and with some degree of reason, too, judged from the character of the past winter and apring. .+ DBESSING THE FEET for traveling ia a matter in which care should be uged, Itis infinitely wiser to wear slightiy- Tubbed boots that are thoronghly fitted to tne foot, than to start in those perfectly new, evon though they appear more elogant. " The tinicst feet will oxpand a trifloin » hot summer-day ; snd then the torture which even a well-shaped, but entirely now, gaiter will intlict on the ox- tromities, is beyond description. Tho suspicion of a bofo in an old shos is bettor than the cer- tainty of pain in A now. The former only burta our vanity ; while the latter injures our toes, and indirectly our temper and our manners. It is positively impossiblo to smilo and smile, and be murdered while you smile, if murder begins mlhxout tenderest joint or your unacknowle edged corn. Should it "be possible to crond & air Oxford ‘ties into your hand-bag, wear during _two or three days of continuous railway riding, they will be found ‘Fe“ xelief from the warmth and stiffness of Yolish boots. And, above all, don't wear rubbors. If the streets aro flooded when you start, and you must encase your unlucky feot in those inventions of tha enemy in order to reach the station in dryness, remove them ag 800D a8 you are eeated, or you will have only yourself to thank for corns, bun- ions, and blisters unnumberod.
