M. RINILIN ON DOxissifc SIRVANTS.—Writing
to • contemporary cm the subject of domestic servants,
Ruskin says :—" There are broadly two ways of
making gad servants; the first, a mood. wholesome,
thorough-going slavery—which was the heathen way, and
no bad one neither, provided you understand that to make
real 'slams' you must make yourself a real 'master'
(which is not easy). The second is the Christian's way :
' whom delicately bringeth up his servant from a child,
Mall have hies become his son at the lass: And as few
people want their servants to become their sons, this is
not a way to their liking. So that, *either Attic( courage
or self-discipline enough on the one hand to make them-
selves nobly dominant after the heathen fashion, nor ten-
derness or pieties *sough to make themeeves nobly pro-
tective after the Chriatiao, the present public thinks
to manufacture servants bodily out of powder
and hay.stuflieg—mentally by early installation of
Catechism and other mechaeloo-religions appliacom—
sad aiwoomieally, as you helplessly suggest, by the law of
supply and dowsed, with such results as we all see, and
most of us more or less feel, awl shall feel daily more and
more to our cost sad selfish sorrow. Sir, there is only one
way to ham good servants ; that is, to be worthy of being
well served. AU mature and all humanity will serve a
good master, and rebel against an ignoble one. And there
ie no surer test of the quality of • natio* than the quality
of its eervanta, for they are their masters' shadows, wad dis-
tort their faults in a flattened mimicry. A wise nation will
have philosophers in its servaata' hall ; • knavish nation
will have knaves there ; and • kindly patent will hare
friends there. Only let it be remembered that' kindness'
moans, as with your child, so with your servant, not in-
dukenoe, but care."
THS EPISCOPAL CHITRCHES I c ANERICA.—For
some time past efforts have been made by some of the
northern bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church to
induce the southern bishop' to return to their sews in the
Souse of Bishops at the coming general convention, to be
held in Philadelphia in October, and rwestahlish the
unity of the church. Bishop Elliott, of Georgia, the presi-
dent of the Roues of Bishops in the south, has written a
letter iodinating the views of the church in that section.
Be mays there is but one way in which the southern Mirch
will return. Believing that they did right in following
the !octanes of the south, they will never return to the
northern church in the cipacity of prodigals suing
for mercy and forgiveness, but if at the meeting of
the Northern General Convention in October, a
joint resolution is passed returning thanks for peso.,
and expressing a hope that it may lead to
• reunion of the dioceses, sod appointing a committee of
bishop', clergy, end laity, to meet a similar committee
from the Southern Oonsail, which sits in November,
with fall power to conclude an arrangement, there
will be no difficulty. Wattop Elliott says
very easy for you, sit
tiug in the 'DMA of plenty, with
everything flourishing about von ; with the world fawning
upon you beams of success ; with a future scorning!, at
bright as prosperity can make it, to wonder as our backward.
seas in acknowledging 'bp blessings of seam and leuoion ;
bat the ease is very different with us, whose homes am de-
solate, whose friends and relations and children ere saltily
impoverished, whose amid order is totally subverted.whons
future is dark and almost hopeless. Ido not mean to owe-
plain; we entered upon this struggle, which was inexprew
able and forced upon us, after having counted the oast, but
I should he aby to if I 011619 forward with any smile
upon my fees and said that I re/owed to it." The pees-
. pets at the :smith of the church (writes a Philadelphia
oorrespoodent of the Timea)are very dim. The dislihoekas•
section to the other is so peat that unless very onteilia-
- tory councils prevail the episcopal church will be divided,
;; as all others are in this country, excepting the Roman
catholic.
