The Fall River Strike.
To n. Editor Of The Tribune.

TO me kotbOT 81 Inc lYtouHe
IsRw in The Tribune some weeks ago that
reduction Of wages had been attempted in the
Fall River Factories, which had resulted in
strike, the men refusing to work for the amount
offered them.
have lately been in f ali River and ascertaned
that the strike still continues without any in
dication that either party will give way to the
other.
The successful termination Of this strike, if
understand it rightly depends mainly upon the
Spinners. They were the first branch that left
work, which they did in November last, and
shortly after the others had to stop IN conse-
ouerce although they had given notice oftheir in.
teDtion to leave on the 30th November and the
Spinners, like prudent men, Immediately formed
a good nion aud went TO work in different ways
70 assist those who stood Ia need OF the necessa-
ries Of life, in which, am happy 70 say they have
nObly succeeded. | believe they have adopted
various means whereby 70 raise fund for the
support Of those among them who have no means
Of supporting themselves while they are on the
strike They have fund supported by the Spin.
ners in other towns Of New England in q manner
which reflects great credit on them. | am not
aware that any assistance has been rendered by
the working men Of New York; bat think there
is good claim upon the working men Of this city
for some assistance, which would not require
either eoquence or force to have granted
am aware Of the sntpathy which you, Mr..
Editor and others have against strikes, but will
undertake TO show that this strike is not merelys
FAN River question, but New. England question.
and consequently one that will affect to some ex-
tent the wages Of Labor throughout great part
OF the United States. The operatives of + all Ri
yer have received less wages for performing the
same amount Of work than any operatives in this
country or in England, even previous 10 the pro
Posed reduction. What then would it be after
taking 10 per cent from one branch, Is from ano-
ther and % from another
Let Gs consider how it would affect other
towns and cities Fall River makes Looms. Card
ing Machinery and Spinning Frames, Mules &c
and wherever these machines are taken 70 work
they take Fall River prices with them, and It is
my opinion the Mules made here will turn OFT
more and better work than any other kind OF cot

TRAVEL WESTwARD.-Persons travelling hence
to Auburn, Rochester, Upper Canada, Buffalo, or
further West, ought to be apprised that the
Erie Railroad is at once quicker and cheaper
than any other. Starting West from this city in
the morning, you have a fair nights sleep at a
good Hotel in Geneva, and reach Rochester or
Buffalo in the same train with the passengers via
Albany, who have had no chance for rest. Com.
ing this way you leave Buffalo at P. Al. and
reach our City at 10 next evening, Tor at if you
choose TO take the Ramspo road from Suffren's
at an extra cost of O. cents y while by
way of Albany you do not get in till midnight
Coming the Erie way, you pass three or four
hours on g steamboat on Seneca Lake, which is a
relief from the tedium of riding hundreds OF miles
in cars-not TO speak of the good breakfast you
take at leisure on the boat. Then the Erie cars
are much wider than any other and therefore
more airy and comfortable The fare from Baifalo
by way of the Erie Road is 50 TO- by way of Al
bany, sl3 so. 1t seems to Us that our Western
friends who have no business on the Albany route
must universally give the preference to the Erie
if they are made aware Of its advantages. We
have tried both, and speak from experience.
When the Hudson River Road shall have been
completed, the rivalry between the two routes in
time and cost may be fair and even, bat it is not

The ERIE RAILROAD AcCIDENT.-No one was
killed by the late accident caused by the break
ing Of a rail near Equinunk, on the Delaware,
and Mr.. G. Hotchkiss, who was the most severely
injured, was declared Oat Of danger on Saturday.
Such was the report of his brother who was at
tending him. Mr. Walter Ogden Of Owego,
who stood next in the severity Of his injuries,
was considerably cut and bruised, but not dan
gerousy The third sufferer did not give his
name, but came along with the train as ii nothing
had happened. We could not have supposed it
possible that a car could have been thrown of
high, steep bank into Z river and yet no zone Of
its fifteen to eighteen inmates be fatally and
only three seriously injured. Great care
must hereafter be taken in running trains
when a severe freeze has just succeeded a spell
Of mild weather, as such changes are trying TO
rails. Although running into a river seems safer
thaA we apprehended II is still FAR from pleasant,
especially 70 women and children. Mr.. Cornell,
President Of the Erie line Of Telegraph, who was
pitched into about three feet water found his hair
frozeH on his head by the time be could scramble
up to the cars which kept their places on the track
Mr.. HOschkiss is widely known by his improve
ments on the wsserwheel, and was formerly in our
State Legislature. We understand be was pre-.
pairing to attend the Worlds Fair at London.

AMERICAN DRAMATIC LITERATURE see
by the Philadelphia papers that Mr.. Boxers ira.
gedy of "Calaynos' has been brought out in that
city with the most complete success. This seems
like an earnest of the revival in this country Of
Dramatic Literature, SO long lost to England
"Calaynos was first published here about two
years ago. 1t was soon after brought upon the
stage in England, where it was at once success
ful, having been performed for more than hun
dred nights in all the principal tbeaters Of the
kingdom. We understand that Charles Kean has
made application for The Betrotha," which was
lately received with such favor in this City and
Philadelphia, intending to bring it out at the Prin.
cesss Theater, London. Two such successes ss
"Calaynos" and The Betrothal mark the com.
mencement of new era in American Dramatic
Literature

The EIiscopaI Churen--rhe Recent Election
OF ProSfs fsiouaI Bishop.

The election by the Episcopal Convention, on
Friday evering, Of Rev. DR.. Creighton, as Pro.
visional Bishop Of the diocess Of New York, whi,h
we announced in the HERALD Of Saturday, appears
70 be generally satisfactory TO Epissppaliins. Or.
Creighton was the ste Of the Trinity Church
influence which has heretofore controlled the adrs
Of the diocese. OF ,oUrse, he is Of the high church
party, and low chur;h, erroneously stated
in article giving an account. Of the election.
Indeed, II may be here mentioned, that all the
prominent candidates voted for a. the election we're
high ohurcbmen; and of the 200 clergymen In this
diocese, probably not more than I've or six are
low chuctmen, strictly speaking by which is
meant that class Of Episcopalians who coincide Ia
doc .rines nearly allied to Calvinism, with Bishop
McIvaine, Of Ohio, Rev. DR.. Tyng, Of this city,
Rev Dr. Stone, Of Brooklyn, and others In Eng
and, the present Archbishop Of Canterbury, and
perhaps a j)rity Of the bench Of bishops, are
corfidered low churohmen.
In the United states, n majority Of the House o.
Bi,hoTs, and Of TIE clergy Of the Episcopal Church
are understood TO be high churchmen; but il should
be u1derstood that the gb church parry, both
clergy and laity, became d gded, few yeas since,
the question Of Puscyism. The dostdnes Of the
Ozfosd Tracts, written by Djcsors Pdsey aud New
man, considered ss nearly approaching tho'e
Of the Catholic Church and large section Of the
high ehursh party in England and Ameri,a Joined
With the low church party in opposing them; thus
forming strong and powerful coalition against
Puseyism, ans consiituting a majority 10 the bench
OF biehops in Eeslaud and in the House Of Bishops
in the United Sstos. Ia the. New York dil,ese,
