Church, to G heldin New York in October next, is composed of the House of Bishops, comprising sl tho diocesan and mis- fionars Bishops, and the House of Clerical and ZLay Deputies. This last covsists of four clergy- wen ard four Isymen from each of the forty-one dioceses, aud aro ppointed by the local conven- tions of the same. Che House of Bishops holds its sessions for the most part in Eecret, except in the caze of matters of a public character. when thedoors are thrown open. In this respect it re- sembles tho Housoe of Lords in the British Parlia- ment. The eldestof the Bishopsin pointof camsecration presides over its deiiberations, and from this fact is termed the Presiding Bichop. Atpresent the prelate filling this position is Biehop Bmith, of Kentueky. The Charch of England hzs 12,200 parishes, 11,000 of which have parsonages.

Spurgeon could not resist the law, and _ his clock, a wedding-present, was contiscat. ed ; but this is what he gays on the subject : ** If it is necessary for our Vicar's personal comfort and tho cdification of our township that my goods should be disposed of by law, 1 will utter Do unneccessary complaints. The chief priest of the Established Church of our Lord's day de- manded His hife; the chicf priest of the parish in my day only takes my goods. I were 2 poor fol- lower of Cbrist to cry ont very loudly when I re- memoer His milence. I must, however, protest against this being done with the sanction of His nsme; and I challenge my Episcopalian brother to point out to me one word of our Lord's or of Mia disciples’ which will justify him in eeizing my goods to maintain himself az a servant and preacher of the truth.” The other day. the Roman Catitolie Bishop of Neltingham, boizg in Loadon, walked in the cool of the evening in Kensingion Gardens, in company with a friend of his, an oflicer of the army.

One cancot Lelp remember- ing tho passagosin * Lothair " whers the stilt- ed clegance of the old diplomatist’s etyle gives way to & simple and natnral expression of poetic feeling in describing » summer-dny in this famous resort. But, to the traveler, there can be little doubt that its chief attraction is’ the sight of the English warld " on dress-parade, 28 oue may say, in Rotten Row, 'Tho effect of the scene upon the spectator is necesserily in- fluenced by contrast and comparison with simi- lar centres of fashionable life and dieplay in the other European Cspitals. Ono recalls instinct- ively TI(E BOI$ DE BOTLUG ona bright afternoon. Dy 4 o'clock the car- riages begin to roll along the Champs Elysoes, by the Arc do Triomphe, throngh the Avenus da I'Tmperatrico, to the gate of the Bois,~—barouches, landaus, coupes, Epglish dog-carts,, Every variety and nationality of vehicle is represented, with one exception: you may not introduce a plebeian back into the long filo of equipages crawling liko o sleepy serpent around the Lake. Paris is democratic, but bero you must learn that aristoeracy has some rights which the public are bound to respect. If youwaut to hire one of thoso modest conveyances which can b had for 40 cents an hour, thero aro enough roads and avenues through which you mag explore tho Bois, but you must not bring it here to jostlo the Duke's conpe aud the Prince’s phacton, Trom the Avenue de I'Tmperatrice a short turn briugs oue to the road around the Lake. This is the nacred ceotre of fashion and distinction. You cannot hasten, and you must not pause; 8o you roll on Iazily, ae arietocracy should. Tho #ew is certainly delightfal: tho Lake, with ita islands connected by a rustic bridgo, with jta fir-groves and Swise-cotiage restaur- avis,—tho lovely cascades, dashing from rock torock, or stealing away into cool silences; and, on the other hand, the wall of forest-trees, with grassy paths leeding away into eccluded greenwoods. How the white parusols como fluttoring out, like butterflics wavering scross a prairie. In gome way or other, this particular form of sunshade becomes wdicative of rauk, wealth, and gayoty. “Tiens!" say tho littl gamins from their waseido bench. Here come some more swells, Look at the white parasols !” In the daya of the Empire, 1OW GAY IT WAS IERT! Hora came the fair, faultiessly-robed Empreas, ‘bowing graciously on every sida; the DPrinceas Metternich, with” her yellow-legzed coschman, whose splendors shobo from far, and quite eclivsed the gorgeous toilet of his mistress ; Duties and Priuces from every Court, with pos- tilions in blue and silver, or outriders in green aud gold. What is the chief impression mado upon the spectator of this moving panorama ? Figares and faces unremarkable for beauty, bat of wonderfal varicty sud possibility of ex- pression ; eyes that seem to have penctrated afl things; smiles that dazzle rather than warm ; manpers of extraordinary polish,— & petfection of finish which now charms aud satisfies the artistic senso within you, snd now surfeits with smoothuess, and makes one long for awkwardness 88 o relief ; toilets exquisite in combination and adaptation to the wearer; and, over and above theso characteristics of native growth, a bleoding of all nationalitics, from 3nglo-Saxon to Sclavonian, Greek, Arab, and Pole,—theso aro the ealient features of the i ch the Parisians ca!l Quite unlike this is the drive of Florence. THE CASCISE, which takes tho mame of * The Dairies ™ from the time when it was part of a farm; when cows were pnuturef.k chieese aud butter mede, and warm milk soid here. You diive out slong the Arno,—s low, clear_stream, spaoned by its six Distoric bridges,—tll you come to the liitlo park whose shade is more that of handsome shrabs than trees, and stop, as do most of the carriages, in an open 8paco opposite the Royzl villa, near 3 shooting-gallery andalittle cafe. - Here tho band is playing operatic nirs, The gentlemen descend, and go sbout making calls upon 2!l theiracquaint- ances. [he equmipages arc 80 mnear cach otber a8 to admit of not a little conversa- tion among the ladies themselves. 3oro social futercourse is carried on hero than in_all the drewing-rooms of Florence. The toilettes ,are all marked by the quiet elegsuco and pleturesqueness which are characteristic of tbe humblest Florentine ; but few of them are strikingly new, or of Parisian fashiou. Oaly in one respect is overy one irraproactable,— THAT OF GLOVES High and low. rich 2ud poor, wear gloves of tha loveliest and moat delicate shades,—cream, layv- ender, primrose, pearl; they Jook fresh and fragrant as flowers. 1t is well that this article is cheap in TFlorence, and well that we cannot s2e the dinners to which somo of the weavers will return. Incomes ere proverbielly slender in Tascany, .and I bavo heard o ¥ouug arms officer ~say _that his pay just kest him in bread and gloves. Wiaat o brown-stone front is to a Now Yorker, and o best parlor to o Now-England woman, that it ia to a Florentine to drive out to the Cascing two or three times o weex. Onois not 8o certain that, in tlcir sacri- ficea to this ond, they deservo tlie ridicule of their British friends. It is somethivg st loast that, on even one afternoon of tho week, arrayed in your best, you may roll_along a lovely road, ¢it in a fragrant grove, amidst music and flowers, look into Eright faces, and grasp friendly bands, hear the nawa of the dav and the gossip of your little circlo; go out from vour isolation, in short; and’ touch, if only for & moment, the electric chaia of buman sympsathy. All that yon may think 28 yon wilch the animated groups o the Cascive, since you are an American, and therefore bora serious &ad philosoulic: but no such reasoning is needed by your lively Italian neighbors to justify their enjoyment. Mean- vhile the flower-girls como around with their tempting wares,—tiny bouquets of fresh violots, 8 peany apiece, great buaoches of rones, and baskets_of japonmicas, haliotrope, and mignon- ettas. You can give floral tributes to half your fair sequaintances, aud not begzar yourself. Royaity and aristocracy assume here NO BUCH BTATE s in the Bois. In a common buggy, ¢ little stained with dust, sits s man with 2 face dark enough for a Hastien Minister, with stroug- Iy-marked festures. Hiu dress is & black snit of decided American tspe, end .is quito eclipsed by that of ing companion, sn oflicer i undress sniform. Suddenly he turns dad looka back, with some- what undignificd intercst and amusement, st & carriage that has just passed him. You do nob Xnow why he is looking back, but the American pirl in that carriage, whose facs is erimson with vexation, knows, for this is what she was saying 10 lier companion when 8 sudden tarn brought ta two vebicles 50 anexpectedly mear: * Yom toid me to look for the ugliest man here, and that would bo the King: and I am sure the ono in that buggy opposite looks ugly enongh to bo™ ——and here the gentleman with hearing so un- fortunately kean saddenly turned aud revesled the well-kuown countenance of the Ital- ian coine. An irrepressiblo emile is illa- miating his grim mustaches a8 he turns upon his critic, but he touches Lis hat with soldierly gallautry and good-hamor at sight of her embe.rrassment.

Finally, you drive back to ths city by the Prato prle, tirough level meadows, from whose soft green rise up the red-tiled roofs of the farm-houses ; far off Joom the Lino Apeunines, and the hills of Florence are putting on their violet closks in the twilight. S0 will end an af- ternoon ot Cascine. ;- About 4 o'clock on pleasant day in Rome, the carrisges begin to climb THE PINCIAY HILL. The summit reachad, tho surface expsnds into 7 o sort of table-land or platear out i drives and walks, with ofl?xmen?;.l ebrubs u‘x?i trees. Here aro great beds of roses blooming in the open airas” lato as Janusry; groves of evergreen oaks, with fountains in 'the midst. Statues of old Romans or eminent italians mark the prominent powts of view. The compasoy avsembled licre st sunset is al- Most as misceliancous as that of the Lois do Boulozue, but the English predominate. In their corongted equipages they quito commsad the ficld. The Roman nobility aro more strik- ing. in their appearanco than the Florentines, buz less retined and scholurly. Their bearing is elngularly impoeing,—only one remove from tragic. in fact,—bus the unusual beanty of faco aud 5igure is i keeping with 1t, aud stags it oo the ‘happier side of that shadowy line which scparates the grand manner from the theatric. Nowhere outewde of Greak sculptars can be ssen forms s0 perfect aud beautiful as thoso of the Romans and Neapolitans of the upper clagses, /Tho beauty is in tue magnifcent mold- mf of the limbs, which are 8o round and full, filhng out ides] curves.

When oue las left Laly, tha exo aches for _ T4 PESIECTION OF CONTOTR to which it Las Lecome habituated. So far aa costume is concerned, the finest display on _tho Pincisn Hill is made by army- oflicers. Two of the Roman uniforms are strik- ingly beantifal,—ous of azure laced with aliver, the otber black with white decorations. s last has the pieturesque tri-corncred hat so familiar to us in the dress of the First Napoleon and our Washington,—in fact, the cut, thongh not the color, of the uniforn, iy that of our * Continentals” in tho American Revolution. Doubtless Italy is its native koit, aud we bor- rowed it from our French allies, to whom poleon had given it a8 8 renuniscenca of his rirst country. One of the prettiest sights on the Pincian is an ample baroache full of - handsome clildren, in whose mudst sits tho vigorous nurss from the Campagna or the Albanian hilts, her black hair coiled and fastened with a silver dagger, and an immenge boliquet of rustic posies ia her band. Before Rome became tho Capital, one was quito sure of eecing at suuset the red and black car- riages come up”the Pincian, with postilions in frout and borsemen behind, from oue of which would descond. at the brow of tho hill. tho white- baired old Pontift, clad in scarlet robes fringed with gold. He has a fair, ruddy face, which scems at first only miid acd_benevolent; but look a second time, and you will notice tho fiery glance of the keen oyes, and tho obstinate chn, Immediately the whole multitude, from Princa to peasant, fall on their knees and form a line, througn which lie pasecs, bestowing his bene- diction in the attitude of Christin the old pic- tures. Vivid recollcctions of thess sccnes, not with- out reminiscences of Centrsl Park aud tho Ave- ouo at Newport, will recur to you a3 you sit un- dor the trees of BOTTEN RO, curious to compare with them the English aris- tocracy in their favonte haunt. Iere coms the Prince and Priucess of Wales, in a burouche. Slo is immensely popular, and it is 3 settled point in Al circles that she i§ remarkably beanti- fui; but the stranger sccedes to this with qualifications. Her features are fine and regular; but Ehe looxs tuded, wearied,—what an American wonld call “ norvous." The Prince, slizbtly bald 2ud in- clining to stoutness, looks the good-humored fatber of a family, aging early. After comes tho Priucess Mary of Cambridge,” * a fin figuro of & woman,” bui extraordinarily large ; sho hos a frank, 'independent beoring, and is reputed a greas favorite. Tho Duke of Edinburg appears on horseback. He is not handsome, nor is there anything about him to merit the cpithet ** dis- tinguished.” Ilia motions have even a certain sbruptuoess and abseuce of refincment. Ifitisa good day for Royal personages, his Duchess, TAR PRINCESS MARTE, ‘may bo scen in the neighborhood of her now kin- dred. Why should the great body of corre- epondents follow the lead of a few London pa- vers nnd expatiate upou her homeliness ? bhe is not costumed after Parisian cauons of taste : but sho looks, incredible ag it may scem, lika ono who wears her clothes for use rather thun show, and i generally unconscious of them. She has not the pale, aristocratic prettiness of Alexan- dra; but what a broad, open forehoad,—what ciear, truth-telling eyes! Uer nose s the far- thest remove from clagsical, but her month is both firm and pleasant. _Altogether, sho looks not at all like the ideal Princess, but rather liko a good-tempered young Ameri- can, who bad been loug induleed” by a fond pa- pa, 2nd bad come forth from tho ordeal not much spoiled. So long as one looks within tho circle of the Royal famuily, oue secs little to con- firm the ol theory as to the effect of long pedi- gree upon the features. While you 3y so, rides up the Marquis of Lorne to put the finishing touch to your conviction. M has a shrowd. sensible, Scotch face, witk method and business in every ling, and makes you think of the trust- ed junior partuer of & Glaszow bank. Where, O whero, are the Lady Clara Vere ds Veres, the Lord Orvilles, and Lady Conszndes, in whom we have 80 long put implicit faith a3 reprosentatives of their class? II one i pa- dent, he will behold this type also,— FAIR, STATELY WOMEN, with conntenances o imperturbable that one cannot conceive thew as laughing or runuing, any more than he could associato those actions with the gods of tho Vatican. ''Their features ave fanitless, their complexions dazzling; but something thoy lack of perfect beauty: their faces bave not enoiugh fine lines, the delicate clusaling of vared expression. Iu this, their defect is the exact u‘g)nsilc of that of the French aristocracy. All Parisian faces are too mobile, 23 most British ones aro too ht- tle so. But here, at Jast, is a refreshing con- trast. A goy, impetuous young Amazon comes smiftly pnst, attended by & gentloman whom wo hesitate to call elderiy, sud yet be mnst be moro .than 50.

NOT THE FISEST BRITISE TYPR in Tydo Park is, as Emorson moted in his Eoglish traits, that of certain young men. The rock upon which the modern Engslivh most frequently ron is, among women, 8 selness, rigidits, conventionality ; rmong men, & eclf-adertion tendmg towards dogmatism and brutaiitv.

Upto tno group described above rides s young man of pronounced Saxon characteristicy, His height, Lus broad chest. and large proportions, wake bim a very subatantial figure ; but be rides as if he and his borsc were ono, with free and _graceful movements, His head is like that of a Greek athlete, but larger; zud short, brown curls cliug close tu his open forehead. He has clear gray eyes, what Win- throp calls “a clipper nose,” and tlie complexion of 8 sun-burned Llonde. The regularity of his fea- tures and their great eriousness of expression givo his faco too grave a character in reposc: but this is dispelled by tho good humor of his smile, and the nnaflected rentlencss and frank- nesy of his nddress. Is it the prejudice of race which gives him 30 great an advantage in your mitd when yon compare him with tae brilliant exquisites of the Boiz, the gentle, gay yoang Florentines of tha Cunecine, or the handsome soldiers of tbe Pincion Hill > Not wholly. You bave an inward conviction that he can ply an oar and handle n gun a8 well as he ridea his horse, and that it wonid not prevent him from wielding a pen or treading a measuro in lady’s drawing-room. 3lost of all, you have a fecling that those steady eyes of his would not blench befare suy danger, Lowever imminent, but might easily clond with the dew of quick and strong emotion. You feel sure that thero are some things which he rever- ences, and that THE HOJMELY WORD “prTy means a zood des! to him, 231t did to bis ances- | tors.
