BRIGADE ENcAMPMENT The meeting Of com-
mssioned officers Of the Let Brigade, held last
night at tho Weddell, was we'll attended The OBJ,
ject Of the meeting was to make arrangements for
the annual sncampment, Brig General FIrCu
oticiated as Chairman, and Lieut. J. W. ENswoRTH
was appointed Secretary. After fomo discussion
as to time Of holding tho encampment, some fa-
voring the latter part of August and some prefer
ing September, Capt. PADDOCK moved that the
encampment bo hold the last week in August
which was carried. The place will be settled to-
day by tho Commanding General and Brigade
Engineer. Forest Grove, Wilson Park aud the
State Fair Grounds upon Kinsmsn street, were
suggested. Either Of these places would be in
some respects desirable locations, tho FIRST having
probably the most advantages. If that is occupied
for the purpose it is proposed to take away the
front fence as to give full view Of the en-
campment from Euclid street. There is pross
pect of having larger and finer turn out than
has ever been had in this section. Certainly
everything will be done by the officers to render it
successful and fine affair The officers will meet
again at the Weddell ou Tuesday evening next

Tue CHURoH OF THE Future IN AYERGcA.-
A pa anphlet has just been issued containing " Ex
tracts from the fifth annual report and pastoral let
ter to the Parish ofTrintty Church, Cleveland, by
Rev. James A. Boles, d. D., Rector" 1t con-
tains the authors views upon Giving upon Prin
cpe,"" Church Work, ~" Daily Service" The
position Of a Church Clergyman with reference to
surrounding scots aud modern inventions" and
especially upon 4" The Church of the Future in
America" He laughs at the fears ihat the Roman
Catholic religion is to prevail in this country "foi
the question of Roman ascendancy has long sinct
been settled, aud we might as well tremble at the
power of poor dead Cesar" A multitude Of sect
is not to prevail " for the time must come gheI
His prayer must be answered, and His follower
be as one"
What sect then is to prevail OF Methodism
he says the idea is simply preposterOus.' Tha
sect " has departed from ancient principles, an
has no fixed and definite form of faith, and th
plague spots ofdisease and death have already ap
peared upon its vitas" Is it the Baptist sect
No, be says " for there is no one such sect, but
multitude of them united in nothing except upo
the principle of immersion" Moreover, il car
not be supposed that any sect, having little re
sembancc to Heaven as to exclude from thei
body the little child is in any peculiar sense IL
Kingdom of God on earth" 1t is not Congreg
tionalism, for he says " that question has been a
] ready settled not by argument alone, but
facts" But by what. facts he does not tell us, sir
ply saying that even New England Is no long
e Congregational. 1t is not TO be the Presbyteri
- Sect Tor " there is no such thiag Presbyterian
T ism now existing as it existed two hundred yea
t ago, and as defined in the Westminster Co
Y fession."
/, What then, does the Reverend gentleman s
t aud hope for in the future lie says For i
part, do not see how it is possible for any Churc
1 man to shut his eyes to the fact that there is
d American Catholic Church ;" and in his opiuio
I the future Church is to be Protestant Epscop
Q Catholic and American. Such are his views,
. which oGr readers can judge for themselves
