denee that Mackenzie who stole and published The
private leteers of Mr.. HoyI, should have made pub
:those1of our able Secretary Of war, BY whom he
was actually, some years ago, saved Fl ON the gal

for Mackenzie, and construed his offence into re-

THE CABINET.

Among the countless beauties Of the Wing
press we find in the Register the following from
the United States Journal: rrhs>f
"As to the Cabinet we believe it to be dis
cordant one-one calculated to destroy the great
Republican party by its dissensions, and we look
upon the Union, the organ of the disorganizers,
as lesser evil in the wake of (the Cabinet) a
greater evil.
We answer the above with un extract from a
late Washington Union. The latter paper is in
the confidence of the Executive, and its Editor,
who, is gentleman Of veracity, knoes what be
says:
" The last "New York Tribune" is charac-
terized with its usual variety of fables. Its lead
ing editorial is 'she cabinet" the chorus OF
which is its dissolution. 1t begins with the as
sertion that the discordant materials of the pres
ent cabinet cannot be held through the ensuing
session of Congress" 1t ends in the same strain,
that the cabinet cannot hold together" The
whole story is false. II is too ridiculous to be
contradicted. I'VE repeat that no cabinet could
be more harmonious than Tie present."

THE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION.

1t will be seen by the concluding reports in this
days paper of the doiDgs of the convention Of the
Episcopal church of this diocess that the two par
lies, unable 10 gain an ascendency, came together
last, night, and agreed 10 give up the contest.
They passed resolution 10 alter the canons Of
the church. so a to make the standing committee
| assured pF their power to act, and TO discharge
EPISCOPAL functions in the present suspension of
theisbsh0p from his office. The leading men on
the different sides in the controversy agreed cord-
ally in this and the result is, that while Bishop
Onderdonk remains, as before, the nominal but
suspended diocesan, there is now a way open for
the procurement Of the exercise of episcopal func-
tions within the diocess. This is certainly great
point gained. Young people can now be confirm
ed, and take upon themselves the vows assumed
for them by their sponsors in baptism. Clergy
can be ordained, without sending them, for that
other things that bishop could do. if fthere were
one, can be done by the bishops of the surround
ing diocesSes.
The unanimity with which this was brought
about is certainly credtable TO the Episcopal
connexion. Notwithstanding the excited debates
ture of compromise was met, on both sides, in the
best spirit, and with the happlest result.
Bishop Onderdonk remains as he was. His case,
ifit needs reviewal, alteration confirmation, is
left iu the hands of the General Convention. He
is the bishop of the docess though deprived Of the
power OF exeEcisDg his functions and those func
ons, so Tar as they are administrative the standing
committee can exercise; so far as spiritual the
standing committee can procure the discharge Of.
The seryices at the conclusion of the conference,
when these results o. all the discussions of the
week had been arrived at, most solemn and
impressive; and to one who heard and saw that
scene, the feeling must have been predominant that
there was conservative principle In that conven
ton, upon which its members may safely rely for
union, for usefulness, and for permanency.

Advertising. We were informed yesterday, by
one OF our Dry Goods merchants, that one single
advertisement was the cause of his selling to one
gentleman five silk dresses, which with the elk
ms % amounted 10 upwards of ninety dollars
This gentleman saw the advertisement in the pa

chant without looking elsewhere, called for the
goods, and purchased them.
If one advertisement sells ninety dollars worth
of goods, who can estimate the amount that NAV

A Itme-keeping Bracelet We saw, few
days since, at Mr.. Thomas Crane Banks in
Broadway, one of the most ingenious and curious
pieces OF ornamental jewelry that we have ever
witnessed. 1t is bracelet of chaste and elegant
Workmanship, beautifully enameIled-havng in
the centre small and exquisite painting of Two
victims to the tender passion. BY touching a
spring, the centre-picce opens, and beneath il is
discovered a watch of the size of Is cent piece
perfect in all its parts, and indicating the time

the bracelet, and is in itself miniature curiosity
