BISHOP DOANE.
THE pREsENTarYT DISMISSED.

The court was in secret session till the mid
die of the afternoon. The committee OF seven
who had been appointed on Tuesday, consist.
ing Of those bishops who had not been present
at the former court, reported in favor of a mo-
ton to dismiss the presentment This paper
is as follows: a
The committee appointed TO confer with the
presenting bishops aud respondent TO ascertain
whether they cannot come TO some understanding
which shah be mutually satisfactory and also fully
answer the purposes of justice, beg leave 10 re-
port that upon consultation with the presenting
bishops they found that NO understanding could
be come 10 OF the sort contemplated in the order
OF the court-the presenting bishops feeling them
selves unable 70 withdraw their prcsentment un-
der any such acknowledgment OF error as the re-
spondent was willing to make.
The committee then conferred with the respond
ent who expressed himself quite ready 10 ac-
knowledge, as he had already done TO come ex-
tent in open courl, such error as his conscience
accused him of The result of which conference
was the paper embodied in the preamble and or
ders now submitted as basis OF a settlement OF
this vexed and painful question.

A MONTH OF CALAMrrY.-This has
been month ofcalamity. Within three
or four weeks there have been recorded
in the pages of the public press the des-
truction of the steamship independence
in the Pacific, the Ocean Wave on the
Lakes, and the Jenny Lind in Califor-
MIA; the awful roailroad Scalamities at
Chicago and Norwalk and nowhere il
added the loss of the ship William and
Mary at SEQ. BY these six disasters not
less than five hundred souls have been
hurried into eternity; and IN addition to
these there have been minor accidents on
railroads and steamboats,. falling of bull

A CHALLENGE.-Our neighbor of the
Marlboro Advocate in noticing the meet
ing lately held to form Jockey Club for
our county, appends the following:
We understand that the lovers of the
sports of the turf intend getting up a
Jockey Club in this county soon. If thew
do, we will show our St. Mary's neigh
bors some horses 'as is horses"
We shall certainly be most happy to
see you nextfall, but your Prince Georges
horses, we are afraid, will return from the
trip with but poor opinion of the cour-
tesy and hospitality of their coursing
brethren of st. Mary's-the latter have
a way of not only refusing to keep COM
PGny with their visitors on such occasions
but, actually, of turning their backs upon
them!
