The venerable senior Bishop OF the Episcopal
Church 10 this Diocese, administered the rite OF
confirmation In two Of the Episcopal churches OF
this city Sunday. and on both occasions deliV'
cred addresses. The appearance aud aspect OF the
Bishop are truly venerable, though We are glad to
perceive that his health has much improved and
that his voice is clearer and stronger than it was
seventeen years ago, when he was compelled, on
account Of declining health, to relinqui,h pulpit
exercises. Since that time he has not been able to
deliver q discourse from the pulpit until the Sun
day before last at Alexandria, where thirty-seven
years ago, he first commenced his ministerial ca
reer. Simplicity and sincerity, lifelong charac
seristics of his public efforts, still distinguish
ing features of his addresses, and give peculiar i'm
pressiveness and solemnity to the wise and gody
counsels Of one who has lived long and lived well

HoRsE Snow.-In many of the North

ern aud Western States, annual "Horse Shows
have been held, and tens of thousands of persons
have gathered to see them. Ladies have entered
the ring as contestants for equestrian prizes and
by 80 doing an impetus has been given to outdoor
exercise which has added to their health and their
beauty. We do not mean to advocate the appear
auce iD public of Virginia ladies for prizes, but
are well assured that they will be liberal patrons
of a "Horse Show" and that they take as much
pleasure in seeing a fine troter. racer or saddle
horse, as the sterner sex, none will doubt who
have attended the State Fairs. Virginia is now bet
ter prepared for a ''horse show" than she has been
for twenty years past. The number Of bl0oded
horses is constantly increasing, her citizens are
buying and raising fast trotters, and, the
at Fairfield, Broad Rock and Ashland, will come
off just before the Fair, nearly all of them be
ensured for the exhibition.
