THE CHURCH CONGRESS. Brooding Trouble in the Protes- tant Episcopal Camp. The Bishops Opposed to Any Congress—Bishop Potter's Objeotions—The Congressionals De- termined to Carry Out Their Plan— Their Side of the Argument. ‘The coming Convention of the Episcopal Church in America, which meets in New York on the eth of Octover, aud which Will be the largest ever beld bids fair, also, to be the most important. The Con- vention will be composed of fifty bishops and over three hundred iaymea irom all parts of the Union, The interest wnich attaches to the afair 1s not, nowever, so much in the Convention Itself as ina schism in the Episcopal Church which is likely to ensue from it. This scnism promise to be of Q0 small dimensions, es some of the mést eminent clergymen inthe Church are concerned in it, It is, of course, impossible at present to eay posi- tively that any outbreak will occur, but trom ap: beurances as they are now, and the attitude of she two parties to the controversy, both equally letermined, there must be a strong backing out bm one side or the other to insure the peace which 4s deemed go desirable in a united church, It appears that some short time since an eml- nent Episcopal divine, Rev. Dr. Washburn, paid a visit to England, and while there had much oc- casion to study tne system of the Established Church there. When he returned here he wrote pamphlet, in which he advocated the system of church congresses, held in England periodically, and whereby churchmen were enabled, at stated Deriods, to assemble together and arguc secular matters, which had a more or less direct bearing apon the prosperity of the Church ttself Dr. Washburn considered that such a system intro- duced here would be extremely beneficial, ana that NO TIME SHOULD BE LOST dn perfecting some organization of the kind. A pampbiet of such importance, coming from so prominent a clergyman as Dr, Washburn, excited Q great deal of interest among Episcopalians, and some short time since a call was issued by a num- ber of clergymen here to meet together informally st New Haven, Conn., to discuss the advisability of instituting some such system as tne English church congresses in this country, The call met with unexpected success, and some seventy prom- neat Fpiscopalian divines met at New Haven, Tne opinion seemed to be ununimous that tne time had come for church congresses to be introduced bere, and the conciusion was come to to cali the Grst one, to meetin New York at the same time as the meeting of the Episcopalian Convention, The call was tssued, and the committee o! are fangements which had been named at the New Gaven meeting wrote to several bishops asking them to hold certain positions in the Congress, fo the very great surprise of the gentleman hav- ‘ng the matter of the Congress in hand they Shortly alter received an answer from Bishop Coxe, 01 the Diocese of Western New York, de- clining to be a vico president at the coming Con: reps, aud animadverting very strongly upon the Proposed meeting. A lew days uiter Bishop Pot- ter, of this city, wrote to the committee declining to serve in the capacity of President of the Con- Gress. Bishup Potter's letter was very lengthy, and, in the course of a letter in which he denied the right of the Congress to meet in his diocese without bia permission, he says:— BISHOP POTTER'S VIEWS, As to the benefits to be expected from church congresses in this couutry, 1 am irce to say that L am by DO Means sanguine. ‘The dilferences be- tween our circumstances and those o1 the Church of eepients are yreat, Jn England there was scarcely any such thing as a synod, affording op- portunity tor discuasion, But { ‘am uot aware that Irom auy one of these congresses any new, marked &nd permanent impression has been made upon the ite aud work of the Churca of Enylaud.

TWIN MOUNTAIN House, Sept. 17, 1874. The Rev. Henry Ward Beccher, being asked to @ive his opinion of the article entitied “Who | Wrote Shakespeare ?’* published in the HERaLp of | Sunday, the 6th inat., said:— 1am interested in such @ discussion as this, not | because | regard it ax sound and not decause I am foterested in ity ingenuity alone, but because it D leads to tudies irom different standpoints of Shakespea: work aud geulur. Hi through the same process that s y ago, cially io Germany, Homer ” was subdjectet to, Admitting the acuteneas of the criticisms = and @ certain | feeling to extent the improbapiity of Sh areams proceeding Irom a man who had | | Known education in the various departments of | learning, from whose stores his works are mace to be so rich, I yet feel that the improbability of Bacon's being such aaramatic genius is far greater. The fundamental error in this whole criticism, as 1 regard it, is in not taking into consideration the nature of dramatic genius, It is not neces- sary that a man should know from personal ex- perience, or even trom observation, those things Which are necessary lor making the most vivid d.amas. ‘The events of life are like an alphabet. ‘The dramatic genius can combine them in ininite varieties, lt he know, here and there, single fragments and elements he can recreate them, recombine them, make them pictorial. A simple sickness in a village, und the prescriptions of a country doc- tor, re material enough for the dramatic genius to create a whole reaim o1 medical practice. A | street brawl 1n a Villaze, orin a ward of a city, becomes the leaven of riots and revolutions in the imagination of the dramatist. We find, therefore, very little dimeulty in imagining how Siakespeare, from the most slender resources, could produce the wonderful resulta which appear in his works, Now Bacon, although he had taucy and imagina- tion, was el puanae im his nature essentially. It almost strikes one with dismay to attempt to imagine how this broad, philosophical, tactual | man could set nimself to the creation of “Tne ‘rempest” and all its airy contents. The predomi- nant quality of his mind, pure and simple, is in- teliect, Wit and fanuy are merely {liuminators, The structure of his mind and the method of its operation are such as, to me, make It absolutely impossible that he shouid do Shakespeare's work. | It Seems to me very much as if one should attempt | to show that Frederick the Great was the author of Beethoven's symphonies. He played the fute, le had a certain taste tor musi and it would laborious ing elemgnts, out of which could be constructed a ver: | Tespéctable theory on this subject, Ido not thin | that in the end Bacon Will carry off the spoils of Shakespeare, but it is quite likely that Shake- speare, with the cross lights thrown upon him irom such ab investigation, may seem even more won- derful than he has been esteemed hitherto, MRS, BEECHER STOWE’S OPINION. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, also being asked to give her opinion of this article, sald:— The theory does not properly belong to Mr, | Holmes, The real author of it was an American | lady, Miss Delia Bacon, sister of Dr. Bacon, or New Haven, who, some twenty-five years ago, elab- orated the theory with great research and great brilliancy of genius, Miss Bacon visited England during the me that Hawthorne was Consul there, oF made his acquaintance, aad in his “English jote Book” there is a passage which docs justice to her ability. The book, with all its genius, wasa failure in the public estimation, or, a8 Hawthorne gays, ‘fell dead from the pregs,” and the disap- | pointment, added to the Weight ol very pecular sorrows, cuused her to die under a cloud, 1 could wish that this subject might so interest the American people that some publisher would be found to do justice to this brilliant ana neg- lected work of their own countrywoman and give it to the pudlic In a readable form. Having heard | Much of Miss Bacon’a work can say that her | argument is extremely ingenious, and presented | with great beauty und lucidity of style, id wor | sy of attention as an interesting literary curi- osit, Shakespeare and His Contemporaries, To tag EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— I regard Ben Jonaon’s testimony in prose and verse aa the Gibraltar on which the Baconian bombshels harmlessly rebound. Jonson's cele- brated verses to the memury of Shakespeare are well known. They are just, generous and noble, worthy of his brave, honest, manly heart and | brain. In bis prose he has the followin, For 1 loved the man and do honor his memory on this | side of idolatry as much as any. He was, indeed, honest and c! an open and iree nature, had an ex- cellent fancy, brave notions and gentie expres- sions, wherein he flowed with such facility that sometimes it was necessary he should be stopped.” | This unquestionably reiers to Shakespeare's won- | derful command of language and odriliant sparks of genius orally delivered as well as to his written | works. No doubt obricklaying Ben olten thought | Be “should be stopped; even Ben’s remaihable abilities could not keep up with Shakespeare’s— | he Was too (ast forbim. ‘horoughly appreciative of shakespet ’# genius and excellences, he wa: | mor, however, blind to ms defects, and he nas not | | falled to state them with manly freedom. | Now, we have aiso trom Jous positive infor- mation that Shakespeare vad “small Latin and | | less Greek," and, aking of him with so much | | agsurance and certainty, We may weli believe he | wu roughly knew the extent of Shakespeare's ac- | quirements and abilities.

He challenges all ancient and modern times to produce any one comparable to him. But as Don Adrian de Armado says, “More au- thority, dear child, name more, and let them be men Of good repute and carriage,” Here they are, Edmund Spenser, the world renowned poet, Who has left on record these lines:— And he the man, whom nature's sclf has made, ‘Yo mock herself and truth to imitate, Our pleasant Willy!
