Macdonald re- lieved the anxiety of the inquirer by stating that Her Majesty's government were in pos- ‘easion of all necessary facts in the form of an elaborate report drawn up by the Lieutenant Governor and the Attorney General from a | British Columbian and Canadian point of view, but that no special agent had been appointed by the Dominion government to argue the sub- ject before the imperial arbitrator., The omis- sion will doubtless be criticised before the di- vision takes place on Tuesday, and the govern- ment will explain more fully why Emperor ‘Wilhelm has been trusted so implicitly. the Methodist Epis- copacy. In such a body of ministers as daily ‘assemble in the Brooklyn Academy of Music it would be strange indeed if there ‘were none among them eminent for their Jearning, ability and zeal in the cause of Christ and His Church. There are many uch, and the eyes of the hundreds whose jreputation is not quite so great are fixed upon them as suitable candidates for important posi- tions in the Church. The Methodist bishops _ have recommended an increase of their number to the maximum of twelve, and there are at — one hundred prospective candidates mamed for those positions, But as not more dhan eight or nine will be required or be chosen, it is evident that a goodly number will return to their homes disappointed, and, per- haps, fully convinced that churches as well as Fepublics are ungrateful. | Prominent among the candidates talked of are the Secretary of the General Conference, Rev. W. L. Harris, D.D. He isa man of fine physique and good constitution, and one who manifestly could perform a great deal of hard hwork for many years to come. Dr. Harris has deen in the ministry about twenty-eight years, and isa member of the Central Ohio Confer- . ence. He is about forty-eight years of age, and has been Assistant Secretary of the Missionary Society for twelve years past. The Doctor isa man of admirable executive ability, good judg- ment and business capacity, and fine common sense. He would make an able and worthy ‘General Superintendent of the Methodist Epis- copal Church, but as there is a probability of his election to the Chief Secretaryship of ‘the Missionary Society he may decline the ishopic. After Dr. Harris the man who stands the ‘best chance of an election to the office of Bishop is, perhaps, Dr. Erastus O., Haven, of ithe Detroit Conference. He is an excellent theologian, a ripe scholar, a lucid writer, and truly pious and good man. Though not as able-bodied as Dr. Harris, he is not so old, and he appears to be endowed with a wiry and enduring frame. He entered the ministry in 11850, and united himself with the New Eng- Jand Conference. He was for atime the Presi- ent of the Michigan State University, but is now President of the Northwestern Univer- sity, a Methodist institution. His sermon before the General Conference last Sunday in the Academy of Music was one of remarkable ingenuity, simplicity and power, and made a very favorable impression upon his ministerial and lay associates, and very. greatly increased his chance of elevation to the episcopal board. Dr. Haven is about forty-five years of age, and bids fair to live and labor many years yet in the Lord’s vineyard. He is a shrewd debater, ‘and no doubt would make an admirable execu- tive officer. Dr. Cyrus D. Foss, of the New York Con- ference, stands high on the calendar of epis- copal candidates, and his calling and election are considered pretty sure. He is not yet forty years of age. He hasbeen about fourteen years in the itinerancy, and has not occupied any ‘position in the Church which should attract particular attention. But he has a general ‘and wide reputation as a preacher and pastor, asameck and gentle Christian and a good theologian and scholar. His love for the pas- toral work has led him to decline positions in the educational institutions of the Church. ‘The Doctor belongs to a ministerial line, and is a man of large and liberal Christian views, great breadth of intellect and persuasive voice and power in the presentation of the truth., ‘He would honor the Church in any position to which the suffrages of his brethren might raise him. There is, however, a fear in the minds of some delegates who do, not know Dr. Foss very thoroughly, that he is now and would be as a bishop too much controlled by the wealthy churchmen of this city and vicinity. This fear, we believe, is altogether unfounded. Dr. Foss is at present the pastor of St. Paul’s Methodist Episcopal church, in this city. The New York East Conference delegation is said to be very generally united upon Dr. Edward G. Andrews, of Brooklyn, He is of -ordinary physical appearance, about forty-eight years of age, and has been about twenty-eight years in the ministry. He is a man of fine culture and scholarly attain- ments, and was for several years President of the Cazenovia Seminary, in this State. He is ‘an admirable preacher and pastor, and pos- sesses a remarkably sweet and even temper and a modest and retiring disposition. He would undoubtedly make an excellent superin- tendent in the Church. Dr. Thomas M. Eddy, of the Baltimore Con- ference, and at present pastor of the Metro- politan church, Washington, D. C., is also prominently mentioned in connection with theepiscopacy. He is one of the ablest theo- logical writers and debaters in the Methodist Church, and is in many respects qualified to make an acceptable and useful Bishop. He was formerly editor of the Northwestern Chris- tian Advocate. He does not look as strong and vigorous as the candidates above mentioned, but his physical nature is of that style that will endure hardness without showing much ‘wear and tear. His voice, too, is at the first faint and feeble, but as he warms up in preach- ing or debating its real strength and power become apparent and surprise as well as @elight his hearers. The importance of his present position alone would indicate the mental Calibre of the man. Surrounded, as he is, by #0 many of the learned and astute of our land, he must needs be able to meet the cynics and the statesmen on their own level. Dr. Eddy hhas been in the ministry about twenty years, sand was formerly connected with the Michigan ‘Conference. He is about forty-five years of ‘age. His predecessor in Washington, Dr. J. P. Newman, is also spoken of as a probable wandidate. He does not present any great Candidates for ee ference unfavorable to him. They fear that his residence in Washington has made him too much of a politician to be a suitable candidate for the episcopacy, and they would diminish rather than increase the number of political bishops and elders in the Church. Dr. New- man is physically one of the finest men in the Methodist ministry, and intellectually also be stands high. He is emphatically a self-made man. He isnot at present in the pastoral charge of any church, and is not a member of the General Conference, though attending on its sessions. He isabout forty-six years of age, and has been in the ministry eighteen years. These are the most prominent though not nearly all the candidates talked of. The dif- ferent sections of the Church are looking for the election of their favorites. Dr. L. 0. Mat- lack, of the Louisiana Conference, and Dr. Alonzo Webster, of South Carolina, Drs. W. F. Warren, of New England, Otis Gibson, of California, Stephen M. Merrill, of Ohio, and J. M. Reid, of Michigan, are also spoken of as likely to poll a large vote, though not standing as good a chance for election, perhaps, as some others named. The election of Dr. Harris, of Central Ohio, for instance, would probably hinder the election of any other candidate from that region, and the choice of either Drs. Foss or Andrews would be likely to defeat the election of a New England man. And, more- over, some of the colored conferences and peo- ple are asking for a bishop of their race, and Rev. James Lynch, of Mississippi, Secretary of State of that Commonwealth, and Benjamin R. Brown, of Washington, are freely talked of. The political standing of Mr. Lynch would doubtless be as great a bar to his election as it would be in the case of a white candidate. Buta portion of the African Zion connection are seeking organic union with the Methodist Episcopal Church, and if they should enter that body they would want to bring their bishops with them also. The prospect of anim- mediate union is not, however, very favorable. Rowdyism Rampant in the Metropolis. Of late the dangerous classes in this city have acquired a decidedly disagreeable prom- inence in the metropolis. They have thrown off the mask of nocturnal stealthiness and surreptitious attempts on the property of our citizens, and, emboldened by the supineness of the police and the utter indifference of a cor- rupt judiciary, they ply their trade openly and take undisputed possession not only of the principal thoroughfares, but occasionally assert their right of search in private houses. The calendar of crime has recently assumed alarm- ing dimonsions, and we rarely hear of a case of condign punishment on the part of the constituted authorities. Garroting, pocket- picking, burglary and even murder seem to claim an important part in the affairs of the great city. Impunity of crime is, as all know, the most prolific means to’ extend it. The flimsy excuses under which criminals have repeatedly escaped the just chastisement of their offences lead inevitably to the commis- sion of other and, perhaps, greater crimes. The murder of Mr. Charles H. Phelps in his own house isa startling example of the bold, unscrupulous attitude of the dangerous classes to-day. The thieves that entered his house were prepared to kill as well as to steal. It 1s grave mistake to imagine that ruffians who venture on a career of robbery or burglary do not mean to add murder to it if they are detected and no other means offer them for escape. The Nathan and Rogers “mysteries” have already proved the contrary. This murder of Mr. Phelps is one of thé most cold-blooded and terrible occurrences that periodically disgrace our criminal calendar. At an early hour in the evening a man enters his house, finds two ruffians concealed therein, and before even attempting to arrest them is killed, or, what is the same thing, mortally wounded. The ruffians escape, the murderer frightening away from his path two despicable policemen, who were too cowardly to stop him. There is no clue at present to either party, and they are probably exulting in their escape and only regretting that they did not succeed in robbing their victim also. Another recent case of ruffianism is the assault made upon a work- ingman, on Friday afternoon, in one of tho principal streets, by a brace of desperadoes, who beat him and tore his clothes because they could not find enough plunder about-his per- son. These ruffians were, strange to say, ar- rested and brought before a justice, at the Jefferson Market Police Court. They were ac- companied thither by a formidable gang of rowdies and sympathizers, who took tempo- rary possession of the court room and acted in a manner that would lead people to suppose they were the governing power there. Now, this condition of affairs is a disgrace and shame to such a city as ours. Every citizen is at the mercy of these ruffians, and such scenes may be repeated at any time, either in the street or one’s private residence. No terms can be too severe when applied to our police and judicial authorities for per- mitting such things to happen, for on them and on them alone the responsibility should be placed. They have encouraged those ruffans until the very excuse of law has been torn away and crime in its naked deformity stalks unchecked through our city. Crime should be punished promptly and sternly, and should not become the vehicle by which unscrupulous counsel gain an unen- viable reputation for invariably cheating the gallows of its due. Nowadays the terrible crime of murder is veiled under so many flimsy legal disguises that the very funda- mental laws of society seem to be disregarded by those, who are supposed to be the guardians of law. A vigilance committee in the metropo- lis of America may seem an extraordinary in- stitution in the present so-called age of pro- gress and civilization, but when life and prop- erty are regarded as mere trifles by judges and policemen we may yet see Judge Lynch enthroned hete. Meanwhile the dangerous classes rejoice at the bounteous harvest spread befdre them and peaceable and honest citizens lose all confidence in the creatures placed over them under the misnomer of “guardians of the peace”? Some Penson Has Sarp Twat Senator Mor- ton is opposed to the renomination of General Grant, and will himself be a candidate before the Philadelphia Convention for President. Senator Morton says he has never been, is not and will not be a candidate, and that he favors, first and last, the renomination of Gen- eralGrant, This is a matter upon which Senator Morton ought to be better informed than any other man.

RIOT IN MICHIGAN. The Miners of the Upper Penin- cs nm O42, SERIOUS DISTURBANCES EXPECTED. Governor Baldwin Calling on Sheridan for Troops. Derroit, Mich., May 11, 1872. About @ week ago‘the minersin the copper region of Lake Superior, to the number of about fifteen handred, struck front work. Their demands for higher wages were partially satisfied, but the strike has continued to increase in strength. The Calu- met and Hecla# mines, weil known as the greatest copper producimg mines tm the country, are tn- volved in the strike. These are in Houghton county, Upper Peminsnla, quite remote from tele- graph lines or means ef speedy communication, Within the past day or two the tewiessness of the strikers has increased, and the civil authorities are powerless to intefere. Grave fears are entertained that the mining machines and other property will be destroyed. On Saturday Governor Baldwin recetved a des- patch giving the circumstances of the émeute and asking that a force of military be sent to aia in repressing the disturbance. He telegraphed to General Sheridan at Chicago, but no troops could be spared there. He then applied to General Philip St. George Cooke, commanding the Department of the Lakes, and obtained two companies of the First United States infantry. The troops will leave here early Sunday morning for the region of disturbance, arriving there about ‘Tuesday. The greater portion of the inhabitants of that region are miners, and they have entire control of the place. Serious complications are feared, UTAH.
