THE NEW BISHOP OF NEW YORK.

The deliberations of the Episcopal Convention in New
York resulted Friday in the selection of DR. HoRA
ITO POTTER, Of Albany to fill the place OF Provisional
Bishop of the diocese vacated by the death of Bishop
Wainwright DR.. Potter the Professor Of Mathema-
tics and Of Political Economy at Washington College, in
Hartford when that institution established under the
Presidency Of the late Bishop Browne and he remained
there until about fifteen years SINCE when he accepted
call the rectorshp Of ST. Peters Church. in Albany
which relation he has held ever since. -----.
He is the brother of Alonzo Potter the Provisional
Bishop Of Pennsylvania and this fact suggests singu-
lar and painful coincidence Both these provisional
bishops who brothers. fulfil the duties for the dis
charge of which two other brothers-Henry U. Onder-
donk and Benjamin T. Onderdonk-were chosen and both
of whom have been suspended.
DR.. Horatio Potter, who is henceforth to preside
this diocese belongs to what is commonly denominated
the Low Church party. He is of unaffected piety
Of but not repeng manners learned without
well as within the sphere of his professional duty
is beloved by all who know him. We do not doubt that
his election is an auspcious event for the church

THE soFTso OF NEW YORK.

The Hon. HoRATIo SEYMOUR, the present
Governor Of New York, has accepted the nomina-
ton for reelection to that Office rendered him by
the "Soft' wing of the Democratic party. We
have already stated that the Temperance question
is very prominent one in the present canvass in
New York. Governor SEYMOUR himself takes this
view of it. The State Central Committee of the
" Softs' met on Thursday evening, and waited
upon the Governor "to request that he would, by
an acceptance Of the nomination Of the Democracy,
terminate the suspense in which the Democratic
electors of the State had been held" His response
is thus reported by the Atlas
To this Gov. SEYMOUR replied that inasmuch the
Wing party had in addition to their former Federal doc
rnes, by their nominations, adopted the distinctive
measures of their party the coerciye Temperance BILL
with all its Details Of last session. which he (Gov s.
regarded subversve of the weseted principles Of

recty violating the Constitution Of the State and de-
strucve to the rights of persons and property
which authorizes the search Of dwellings in violation
of the Bill of Rights the confscaton of property without
due process Of law and the Imprisonment of citizens
without regular warrant and for nqusitora purposes
of the four thousand Justices of the Peace Of
the State, he felt himself in duty bound to accept the
issue thus rendered and to waive the objections Of the
great personal Inconvenience and injury TO himself and
his affairs which had heretofore mpeled him to refuse
to be candidate.
presented by the different nominations he felt that his
acceptance gave the electors Of the State the opportu

and in his message to the Legislature vetoing it, and
that whatever that decision might be he would be

all seem to think it will be the best crop that has been

per acre. The Bridgeport lConn.) Farmer says that
Alonzo Taylor, Esq informs them that his potatoes will
