Potte May 25, 1862, his ministry, which w: spent in Philadelphia, was’ abundant labors and success, specially fitted for the important pust to which he was called—the secretaryship of the foreign committee of the board of mis- sions. Finding his department deeply in debt and lacking the general support of the church, his wise, conservative and energetic administration relieved the board from debt and secured for the foreign work the confidence of all.

The fact that the thirteenth day of the session of the house of deputies fell on Friday would have been considered respon- sible for the bad weather luck of the day if the assemblage had been in any way su- perstittous, but the members were too Jevel- readed to attribute the miserable moisture to any but natural causes, and proceeded to withstand the discomforts of it philo- sophically. After the minutes were read President Dix announced the appointment of Rev. Dr. Tiffany archdeacon of New York, in place of Rey. Dr. Harwood, retired, to membership on the committee on archives. The call of con.mittees was then taken up, and Rey. Dr. Richards, from the commit. tee on new dioceses reported in favor of the proposed establishrent of a new dtocese in Japan, to be known as the diocese ot Kioto. On his motion, a resolution concur- ring with the bishops on the subject was passed. Ray. Dr. Hoffman of New York, from the ecmmittee on conseeration of bishops, re- ported upon the nominations of the three American bishops sent from the hanse of bishops yesterday, and moved that the dep- uties proceed to act upon them. The house Gecided to consider the nominations hehind closed doors, as customary, at 3 o'clock this afternoon. An Amendment Adopted. Rev. Dr. Davenport of the committee on the canons reported a resolution changing the number of trustees of the fund for the re- Nef of widows and orphans from fifteen to seven. It was adopted. He also recommended non-concurrence in tie Message fifty-three of the bishops on canon 17, becattse\of a technical mistake, which was agreed to, He then presented a resolution amending canon 7 governing or- dination to the ‘priesthood. The proposed arfiendment provided that no candidate for holy orders should be ad- mitted to deacon's orders in less than three years without the consent of three-fourths of the standing committee, and then shall not be admitted in less than one year. Should a candidate, however, be thirty-five years of age, who;has been confirmed and admitted to communion with the church, who desires to. take orders and has had experience in teaching and directing, and who shall be a:gmduate In arts of some reputable college or university, may be made a deacon within six months with consent of three-fpurths of the standing committee. Aftér da few moments of de- bate the resolution was adopted. Other Committee Reports. ‘The pr2sent trustees of the General Theo- logical Seminary, who were renominated by the committee»@n that institution, were fcrmally elzcted. _ On motion of Rey. Dr. Duncan, the com- Mittee on state “6f athe church was dis- charged from further consideration of the resolution providing’ a stipend of $100 a year for missionaries. The committe> of themortals of deceased members requested and was granted leave to make its report at 10 o'clock tomor- Tow. aie ® The Charch' in New Possessions. Rey. Alexander WW. Seabrease, from the jcint committee appdinted on the third day of the session to’consider and report upon the increased respongibilities that will meet the church in “Hawaii, Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines, and the duties of the church toward missionary work in Chris- tian countries of tte western hemisphere, submitted a lengthy report. It was listen- ed to with the closest attention. The report recited that the committee had given the subjects confided to it the closest and most earnest attention. Re- garding Hawaii, the committee had found that an agreement was entered into several years ago by the late Bishop Kip of Cali- fornia and the authorities of the English church in Hawaii, by which a joint rela- tionship was established there. While the ultimate unqualiffed ~ jurisdiction of the church in al Iparts of the United States was a certainty, It would be a breach of faith for the American church to take any action without first conferring with the au- thorities of the Anglican church. The committee found upon investigation that the present domestic, political and re- igious conditions in Porto Rico warranted immediate action py the. church therein. Already in Ponce was a church building and a congregation, now under supervision of the bishop of Antigua. Representatives of the educated classes of Porto Rico were opposed to the Church of Rome, it was stated, and antagonistic to its priesthood. Seventy-five per cent of the people were illiterate, according to the report, but anx- ious for ‘education: The liturgical worsaip of the church world be favored by them, and it was deemed advisable to begin mis- sionary work at ones there. The Same coadftions existed in Cuba, the report. ‘The Cuban people had alrea been helped by missionary work. Has’ action should be ‘avoided, however, and it believed a joint ‘commission should be pated to consider church work there. Af- sidering the duty of the church and ations in the Christian countries srhere, the committee reported siutions. There was some debate on the subject of the report, and a motion was made to allow Rev. Mr. Osborne of Hawaii to address the house on the subject of the church in the islands. It was'teVGloped that Mr. Osborne had been beforé?’the committee which m the r t ang? Hid given his v length to it, so by’ big majority thi tion to permit him,fo speak was laid on the table. ran The resolutiogs were adopted uni The Res@Moutions ax Adopted. The first resolitfen provided, the bishops ecneurring, t he present situation of the church in Hawyii is such to render it inexpedient thatthe church in the United States should iterfere at this time with the existiag stateey and the consideration of spiritual juripdigtion therein should be hostponed unlilp cynference shall be had with the auth rig ef the Church of Eng- aid ered by the committee t after con- ference with the’ #ishop of Antigua, may be deethed’ practicable und “desirable. The third ‘resolution recommended that the matter of the cake of English-speaking people in Mexicobe referred to the inem- bers of this joint com om (the bishop of Chicago and the Dishop of New York), who are members Wf the provisional cum: mittee for church’ work in M. , with in- structions tc bring the subject to the no- tice of said provielanal committee. The fourth “resoMition provided Joint mission, torconsist of three b three presbyters and th pointed, to. whom ‘shal that a growing out of ased territory, #ssumed or to be as- ied by this government, with tiors to rtain by corr sonal visi se, and to report to the d of maragers of the hoard of missions uch facts, with any recommendation ich they may ‘iink it expedient to make. An Issue With, the Bishop: This important‘matter having been set- tled, a miessage’ was received from the bishops concurring in the action of the deputics on article cne, but making amend- rents thereto which, in the opinion of many deputies, unnecessarily changed present laws regarding the rights of for- ign bishops as well as interfered with pre- rogatives of the deputies. It was unani- mously resolved that the deputies non-con- cur, and a joint conference be requested. Another messdge from the bishops an- nounced their nopsconcurrence in the ae- tion of the deputies in adopting a resolu- ticn providing to prefix the words “In the neme of God, amen," to the title of the constitution, stating’ thdt the bishops dcemed any such prefix unnecessary. age was ulso received requesting of deputies to reconsider its ac- tion in passing the resolution fixing the time of the adjotrnment of the convention Tuesday, October 25... A conference com- miltee Was appointed. : The conference committee on the subject of the proposed .missionary district of southern Indiana was discharged at its own request from further consideration of the subject, thus defeating the proposition. ‘The committee gh hymnal having report- ed that its work was completed, requested that it be discontinued. A division vote was made necessary: by. objectors and the vote was 181 to 83.in favor of discontinu- ance. & By unanimous consent Dr. Davenport in- troduced a resolution and had it placed on the calendar providing-for the appointment of a committee of-five to prepare to report to the next general convention a compendi- um of the canons and-constitutional laws of the church.) sat. Article %n Standard Bible. ‘The business gf the morning hour having been concluded, President Dix called Mr. John H. Stinesé' tothe chair, and, as chair. man of the cdthtnigtee on revision of the constitution, refjprted. on the resolution pro- viding for ansa@rtigle in the constitution governing the ‘subfect of the - standard Bible, which Searles to the commit- tee. The lack ‘bf ‘tifme prevented complete consideration df th®important subject. It therefore recothméhded and the house agreed to the creation of a committee of two clergymeri°ard‘one layman to draw up such an afticie*and. submit it to the next general ‘cotiverition. 7 New Axticle IX Proposed. Dr. Dix then reported a resolution pro- viding to strike out®article 6 of the consti- tution and insert thf following as article IX of the constitution, . viz: “The general convention may, by canon, establi8h a court for the trial of bishops, which shall be composed of bishops only. “Presbyters and deacons shail be tried by a court instituted by the convention of the diocese to which they belong. “The general convention may. in lke manner, establish of provide for the estab- lishment of courts of review of the deter- minations of diocesan or other trial courts. “The court for the review of the deter- miration of the trial court, on the trial of a bishop, shall ‘be €omposed of bishops only. * 5 “The general conVention” may, in like manner, establish an ultimate court of ap- peal, for the review only of the determi- nation of a court of review on questions of 1 doctrine, faith or worship, | “None but a P. ‘Dishop shall pronounce sen- tence of admonition, suspension, deposition or degradation from the ministry, on any { bishop, presbyter or deacon. “A sentence of suspension shall specify on what terms or condition or at what time the suspension shall cease. An amendment offered by Dr. Harrison was lald on the tabl>, and Dr. Dix then re- quested Judge Charles Andrews of central New York to explain the full scope and pewer of the purposed article. Judge Andrews on the Subject. Judge Andrews spoke at some length. The committee had followed the principle of civil courts in preparing the article. It did not contemplate or establish a complate judicial system for the church. It assured to those charged in the church with of- fenses against it trials before an initial court; a review of the case by a court in ths diocese or district wherein the alleged offense was committed. Final judgment by a court of appeals, in case at any time such a course would be required, had been pro- vided for also by the committee in pr=par- ing the article. The article, he repeated, in conclusion, did not establish a judicial sys- tem in che church. It was only tentative and p2rmissory, Dr. McConnell of Long Island. was the next speaker. He called attention to the fact that the proposed article gave four- fifths of what the church had wanted. It provided for the trials of bishops in the court of final review upon four of the five charges to which bishops were subject, the only ones which he could not be arraigned before being those of erime or immorality. He considered the article at some length, and offered an amendment to strike oul the fourth clause, providing that the court of review on the trial ofa bishop should be composed of bishops onty. A motion to lay the amendment. en the table was defeated, and, the question on the amendment itself arising, there were demands from several dioceses that the vote be taken by dioceses and orders and this was done. The result was as follows: Clerica!—21 ayes; 30 noes; 5 divided. Lay—22 ayes; 24 noes: 5 divided. The amendment was lost and, recess hav- ing arrived, further consideration of the ar- ticle was continued until tomorrow. —— FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE DAVIS. Seven of the Crew Killed by Bursting of Boller Tubes. A dispatch from Astoria, Ore., yesterday says: The torpedo boat Davis, which start- ed on its official trial trip today, was dis- abled by the bursting of a number of boiler tubes. Elght of the crew were badly scald- ed and thice of them died soon after reach- ing here. Four others died tonight. The dead are: C. McNeely, P. Luithiie. H. Wood. W. Woods. B. Ryan. A. Johnson, A. Bueh}. Luithlie was a coal passer and Woods is superintendent of the boiler room. The others are firemen. The accident occurred in the Columbia river, about twenty miles above this city. The nature of the explosion has not, been made known, and the examination of the boilers will be required to determine ex- actly what part of the boilers burst. The best theory obtainable is that some of the tubes of the outward boiler ex- ploded, owing to a derangement of the au- tomatic water gauge, which permitted the water to get too low. Excepting the hayoc naturally wrought in the boller room the boat is uninjured. ——————+ e+ —____ EROUS SLEEP-WALKING. Traveled on a Railroad Track Over Trestles and Bridges. From the Lexington Le DA From Olive Hill, Carter county, comes the story of a most re rkable case of somnambulism. A few nights ago Emma, the fourteen-year-old daughter of Captain and Mrs. Brooks, living on a farm a mile past of Olive Hill, after having finished her studies for the next day lay down on the bed to rest, but did not intend to go to sleep.

From Tit-Bits. To any one unacquainted with the com- plex characteristics of London life it would appear almost incredible that a man could make a living as a pickpocket by immadi- ately restoring what he has stolen to its original owner. A detective officer, however, has recently informed the writer that such, indeed, is ths case. For some time past un ingenious individual has made it his business to wait upon ladies as they leave theaters, calling their carriages and aiding them to enter. He is decently dressed, very polite and has a way of holding up the lady's dress behind —especially if the weather be wet—which is particularly pleasing to bis patronesses. But it seems that his action in this re- spect is not nearly so disinterested as it might appear, for he mak2s this little court- esy a subterfuge for picking their pockets or removing any article of value within reach. His methods, however, are not those of the common thief, for he pres=ntly pro- ceeds to the police station nearest at hand and there delivers up his spoil, coolly stat- ing that he has “found it” outside a cer- tain theater. He, of cours3, furnishes also hi: and address, and in due time his “hones! action receives its reward. He has “found” so many things recently that the police are anxious to find him. A False Theory Overturned. From the Philadelphia Press. An investigation made by the labor bu- reau in Washington Las brought out some further proof as to the great benefits that flow from !abor-saving machinery. The cost of production has beer in that way enormously decreased One man, with the aid of machinery, can oftentimes do the work which it required ten men to do -vith- out the machinery. That has greatly re- duced the prices of such articles. Has it injured the workmen? On the contrary, the report says: “There has been a larger increase in the number of persons required for the production of the articles consider- ed, in order to meet present demands, than were necessary to meet the demands under the hand-labar system.” The cheapening of the articles increases the consumption so as to give more employment to work- men than before. There never was a more benighted outcry than that of workmen who are falsely led to believe that labor- saving machinery injures them. All Washington an Audience.

Those Well Versed in Spanish Wil Be in Demand. One of the high officials connected with the State Department has called attention to the necessity that already confronts the United States government of finding suitable corps of bright young men well versed in the Spanish language as well as in English to assist in the execution of the colonial policy which has now b Posed upon us as a result of the pointed to the difficulties thet had been encountered by the American officials, civil, naval ard military, who had gone to th Philippines, to Cuba and to Porto Rico in their dealings with the inhabitants of those islands. Hostile clashes might easily arts and at any rate serious disagreements could be expected to follow from a failure on the part of the government's agents to secure a perfect knowledge of the expres- sions of the people whose affairs they were to administer, either permanently or tem- porarily. This condition had been encountered at Cavite, in the early days of the United States military occupation, aud undoubt- edly, in the opinion of the official referred to, the relations between the military and the insurgents would be much more sat!s- factory and safe nad the United States the benefit of the services of loyal Americans well acquainted with the Spanish manners. and customs. He suggested that the time was rine for some of our leading educa- tional institutions to take this want into consideration and endeavor to meet it by providing a special course that would af- ford the government trained agents in case of need, as well as developing a class of enterprising commercial agents who woald be of great value in developing our colonial trade. ——— ee SURGEONS IN THE SOUDAN. Arrangements for the Treatment of Wounded British Soldiers. From the London News. The arrangements made by the army medical department for the final advance on Khartoum are most elaborate and com- plete. They have been made by Surgeon Colonel Macnamara, who has been and re- trains P. M. O. of the British force, while Surgeon General Taylor—a man of great and varied experience—has come specially out to exercise supreme control in both British and Egyptian divisions. The ar- rangements made for the treatment of the wounded are as follows: A medical officer is attached to each battalion, and one also to the cavalry and to each battery of ar- tillery; then from each battalion, etc., are drawn thirty-two trained men, who retain their arms and can be otherwise used in emergency, whose business is to pick up and give first ald to the wounded and con- vey them to the field hospitals, which will be at convenient distance behind the bri- gades in some sheltered position. Behind each brigade are to be five field hospitals, each with one medical officer and accom- medation for twenty-five men. These five field hospitals act as one, but are made sectional in order that the sections may be detached to follow any battalion that may be acting independently of the bri- gade. In all these there is accommodation for 125 wounded in the field hospitals of each brigade. There is also a senior medi- cal officer with each brigade, Lieutenant Colonel Sloggett with General Wauchope’s and Lieutenant Colonel Hughes with Gen- eral Lyttleton’s command. From the field hospitals the wounded are to be conveyed as soon as possible, af- ter treatment, to barges moored off the river bank, where there will be accommo- dation for 200 men. These barges are at present engaged in conveying troops to Wad Habashiyeh, our place of rendezvous, but so soon as this work is completed they will be cleansed and disinfected and fitted as hospitals. Other barges will be used for operating purposes. Two Roentgen ray apparatuses (which are now here) will be on these barges. Of course, apart from the barges there will be other hospital accommodations on the river bank, and the barges will, if neces- sary, ply to and from the Atbara camp. Between Khartoum and this place there will be eight lines of communication hos- pitals with fifty beds, having, of course, a medical officer attached to each. Surgeon Major Hunter, who until last year was at- tached to the Egyptian army, has charge of these eight hospitals. Here, at the Atbara, ample and special accommodation has been provided. A hos- pital has been built of mud bricks, with walls some three feet thick and a lofty roof, the wards being celled with matting and thickly thatched with Dhurra straw. It is probably as cool a place as there is in the Soudan. Here is accommodation for 200 men, but on so generous a scale that, if necessary, another fifty or more could be added without any cramping to the in- mates. Men reaching this hospital get proper hospital clothing and bedding, and have sheets to their beds. Six medical officers are in charge. There is another base hospital lower down the river at Aba- deah. Fifteen miles north of Berber ts an- other big mud brick hospital with accom- modation for 300 men, who will be looked after by eight medical officers. Both hence and from the Atbera camp sick convoys will be made up for the desert railway journey to Halfa, and the trains will be specially fitted for conveying sick and wounded. At Halfa and at Assuan, where there are breaks between rail and river, there will be severally a fifty-bed and a twenty-five bed hospital for the accommo- dation of men who need rest after the jour- ney. At Abadeah hospital, by the way, Is another Roentgen ray apparatus. On each gunboat is a medical officer, the P. M. O. of the gunboats being Surgeon Major Smythe. Every sort of drug, appliance and instru- ment that may be required has been plen- tifully supplied, and the organization gen- eraliy is so thorough that there is every reason to hope that the complaints so often made (and made as much by the surgeons themselves as by any one else) of the in- adequacy of the arrangements for the med- ical treatment of our troops on active ser- vice will not find any voice as regards the expedition to Khartoum. Ihave omitted to mention that the stretchers for carrying the wounded and ick from place to place have been fitted with hoods, and Tommy, who generally contrives to get fun of his own peculiar fancy out of most events, has succeeded in evolving a mild but popular jokelet out of the labor the alteration has cost him. For some reason or other it has been the fash- ion at Darmali to cast a sort of comic scorn on the guards, there being a sort of prevalent theory in camp that these gal- lant soldiers ‘were to be sent to Khartoum Wrapped, so to speak, in cotton wool. A hit at the guards therefore was not to be missed when occasion offered. And the soldier at work on the Stretcher hoods promptly answered the question as to what they = a with, “What for?

EW YORK, October 21.—The trading in today’s stock market lacked enthusiasm, but gained something in confifenc - don sold a few stocks during the opening hour, and traders took advantage of the selling to offer lower prices. At the decline the undertone became extremely strong and a market for all offerings was soon dis- closed. The foreign friction growing out of the Fashoda incident is not the best of argu- ments against prices on this side. In some quarters the idea of this country becoming an immense supply store leads to the tet that America has little to fear in this con- nection. As it Is, exports are well above the season's record, and Europe cannc turn securities equal in value to the owed for our products rn railroads are making money and again incre; re- rts ng thelr freight-carrying Iders interested in divi- turns have no occasion for alarm. rity of the m nservative gnize this fact and are in no Mood to reduce their holdings, The elections do net cause any incr concern and the fears of the early the week may be said to have decreas slightly. The actual counting of the y necessary to inuuce new buying on a lat scale. but the desire to sell stock has be Iready considerably curbed by surfac nditions alon foday'’s trading was consequently made up of pre ional speculative buying. and the covering of short contracts. e ab- sence of finality in the Americ nish peace negotiations may revive and might be made the background for lower prices. Lower prices in this sense are not such as would bring the market into the positively Weak class. The granger shares will find friends on ali concessions, if recent buying means any- thing. The range of prices to day clearly demon- strates the increasing popularity of this grcup. Such an advance would be entirely logical and would almost certainly find re- flection In the lower priced shares of the Pacific roads. These stocks are sold by foreign houses just now, but such seles are not all long stock. The so-called Flower stocks are strong, and the election argument loses much of its force when this fact is consid- ered. In the industrial @epartment American Tobacco seems to attr @ little ter support than does Sugar, The latter stock is barely eteady durt its active periods because of the almost! universal belief in the genuineness of the trade conflict. The forcing of the fight is Ukely to be the next step, and then the story of reduced dividends’ may again be unearthed. This condition of the trouble will, in the opinion of many, be the begin¥ ning of the end, and will heraid an early compromise, ——_o_—. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, New York Stock Market, Open. High.
