PETITION.
To the Rt Rer the Bishops of the Protestant Episco-
pal Church IN the United States of America
Brethren Fourteen years have elapsed since, by
the canonical action OF an ecclesiastical Court of
Bishops, was suspended from the office of a Bish-
op and from all the functions of the sacred minis
try. To that sentence have quietly submitted,
and now present myself before you, respectfully to
ask for its remission.
In making this request deem it right, before
God and man, frankly and truly to ay before Won
the present state of my feelings and the grounds on
which | ask the removal of the penalties under
which | suffer.
In the excitement of feeling consequent on nv
trial and sentence, it was natural that much sbould
be said on both sides, that in the dispassion-
ate moments of calm Christian Judgment would
afterward be regretted and disclaimed You will,
however, brethren, permit me to say that, deeply
aggrieved as felt at the time by sentence which
| thought to be unduy severe, | have no recoec-
tion of having endeavOred to justify my own view
by attributing to my brethren unworthy motives
II the feelings of any of them have been hurt by
the suppositiOn that had in this way done them
injustice, sincerely regret it, and hope that may
be pardoned for any expression which may have
been supposed to bear such construction. | Gen.

lict at your hands if were ready at once to ac-
knowledge all the crimes which may have been
for that of which | not really guilty. | cannot
consent to purchase restoration at the price of
falsehood and hypocrisy.
And yet presume not to say that am entirely
faultless, and have deserved no censure. am not
exempt from human infrmity; and in the calmer
reflection to which the lapse of time has contributed
| acknowledge that cannot but believe parts of m Y
conduct to have betrayed indiscretion and that nv
demeanor must, in some instances have been calcu-
lated to produce impressions injurious alike to the
Church and myself, however such effect NAV have
been unintentional and unperceived on my part
say that cannot but believe this because some of
my fellow-Christians, and among them some of
yourselves, BRETHREN felt bound, to this extent to
condemn me. beg you, however, to believe me
when most solemnly declare that, in this matter,
was not the slave of deliberate impurity of nten-
ton. But be my offence small or great, to what
ever extent, brethren, have brought reproach
upon the cause of our Master, of giving just offence
to any of my fellow Christians, without pur~
posed intention of wickedness, am-without refer

The Mysterious Musician Of Waldon Ca
thedral.
The old man who for upwards of thirty
years had been organist Of WaldOn Cathe
dral, was not forthcoming one spring morn
ing: being sought for, he was found dead in
his bed. n
When at Waldon-this was meyer for very
long at time, though not exactly young,
was still in my Wanderahr-I had often
officiated for old jackson and now, at the
bishops desire, took upon myself the trou-
bic aud responsibility of appointing new or
ganEt.
WaliOn-fOr reasons of my own, do not
speak Of my native town BY its right name
IL very behind-the-time, out of the.wOrld
place: my gazetteer says that it is "chiCfly
noted for its cathedral, q magnificent cruci-
form structure; and its palace, the residence
Of the LOrd.bishop Of the dioccs;" but do
not think that It is "noted" at all. Never
thclcSs, though have travelled much, have
never seen any building that appeared to me
so imposing and grandly suggestive as Wal
don Cathedral but then have that familiar
ity with it which breeds, not contempt, but
truest reverence for what is truly admirable
| own house in the cathedral yard, in which
l was born, in which hope to die.
For some months after the death of our old
Organist, was q reluctant occupant of this
house of mine. AS spring gave place to sum-
mer, my impatience to escape from the drOw.
sy heat that settled down on Waldon was
great The two or three ignorant and self
cOmplacent young men who alone applied for
the vacant situation, received questionably
courteous dismissal.
One sultry midsummer evening, my
thoughts turned with especial longing to Nor
wcgian fields and fOrds. ! rose from my or
gan practice abruptly, and left the cathedral
by small, low side door, Of which always
made use. The bishop was absent. went
to stroll in the palace grounds, and, remem-
bering that in the morning had needed .
work Of reference, which knew to be among
the ancient volumes in the library above the
cloisters, obtained the key Of the library
from the bishops housekeeper. Afterwards
sauNtered beneath the ancient trees on the
close shAveu lawns, the while denouncing the
sitting heat good time; then paced the
wall above the mOat dividing the palace

" Swear Not at ALL"

"Swcar not at al" my car is pained,
To hear JehOvahs name profaned;
Swear not at all, for 50 said Christ,
Whose words were ever gems unpriced.
This law the child Of God proclaims--
Above oil things, swear not" said James.
That message was of priceless worth
Gods throne is heaven-His foOtstOOl earth.
Swear not by these-befOre that throne
Our words, our very thoughts are known.
Swear not by thine own hand or head
Not by the living or the dead;
Nor yet thy life, nor soul, nor health,
N"r yet that gli,tering phantom wealth,
Nor swenr by earth MS we explore
Gods footprints tell ON every shore.
MT by the stars, nor orb Of day,
Nor gems that pave the milky-way,
Nor yet more distant realms above,
Made vocal by Jehovah's love;
Not by the Saints nor Scraphim;
These are Of Gud and BOW TO HIM.
Not BY the monsters Of the deep.
Nor raging storms that DER us sweep,
Not by the lightning's fash on high,
Nor by the thunder roaring by;
Nor by the King nor Queen or both,
Nor yet by any other oath.

FOUND DEAD.

They found her dead
One snowy morning in the open street,
Her cold cheek resting on the pearly sheet
Around her spread.
Aud an her lips quiet smile repOscd,
As IL In steep, life'S weary dream had closed. r..
She slept the last. last sleep;
Deaths seal WAS on her brow, and she had passed
Tired and suffering, to her home at last,
Leaving no friend 10 weep,
No loving ones IN come ut sunset hours
To sprinkle on her bosom tears and flowers.
No warm and gentle hand
Claspcd hers in tenderness, as in the night
She went out gently from this world Of light
In the shadOwy land.
No earthly watcher fingered at her side
To heur her last low murmur when she died.
But did she die aioneS
No! not alone. One friend kept watch with her,
One gentle voice, one loving smile was near
The desOlate unknown;
One hand Of mercy led her DER Deaths foam,
Into the better land to friends and home.

"oUR ooUNTRxAlvayu Right Right Wrong Country"
RICH THOUGH POOR.

No rood Of land in all the earth,
No ship upon the sea,
Nor treasures rare, nor gems, nor gold,
Do any keep for me:
AS yesterday ! wrought for bread,
So must ! toll to-day;
some are not 80 rich a. ].

The robins on the bOugh,

And never fingers long;
But THAT O'erruns the liVelong year
With music and with song.
Come gather round me, little ones,
And as | sit me down,
With shouts Of laughter on me place
A mimic regal crown;
Say, childless King, would accept
Your armies and domain,
Or cen your crown; and never feel
These tiny hands againy
There's more Of honor in their touch,
And blessing unto me,
Than kingdom unto kingdom Joined,
Or navi0s on the sea
Than Shebass Queen did bring
To him who, at Jerusalem,
Was born TO be king.
Look ct my crown, and then at yours;
Look In my heart and thine;
How do our Jewels now compare
The earthly and divine!
Hold up your diamonds to the light,
Emerald and smethyst;
They're nothing 10 thOsc l0ve-lit eyes,
These lips 50 often kissed!
Oh nUblcst Roman Of them all,
That mother good and wise,
Who pointed to her little ones,
The jewels Of her eyes.
Four sparkle in my own to-day,
Two deck sinless brow;
How grow my riches ut the thought
or those in glory now!
And yet no rood Of all the earth,
No ships upon the sea,
Nor treasures rarc, nor gold, nor gems,
are safely kept for me:
Yet am rich-mysclf King!
Aud here is my domain:
Which only God shall take away
To give ME buck again!

The War and the North American Overland
Routes.

Among the grave consequences that may
result from the existing state Of things on
the Continent is one Of especial interest to
England, alike in q commercial and in a po-
litical point Of view-the interruption,
namely, Of our overland communication
with the East. Should it hpppen, by what
ever deplorable complication, that we be-
came beligerent, aud that France and Rus
sia were among our opponents, there can
be no doubt that a chief object with those
Powers, for various considerations, would

which we now travel with such comparative

clude us from that other highway which

About Ihe COIVIIIe Country.

As we intimated in our last issue, the

Greek, ,;a tributary Of Mill Creek, has been
selected it is IA miles from old Fort Col
vile, &c miles from the crossing Of Spokane
river, l641 miles from Palouse mouth on
Snake river, and 2l0 miles from Fort Wal
lA-Walla-in about latitude 480 35 n, and
hence only about 25 miles south Of the
boundary line. The point selected is rep
resented as possessing remarkable adVanta-
geS fer the economical construction and
maintenance Of post, such as is contem-
plated Fine meadows for hay, and wide
scope Of grazing land are in sight good

uiently located. Fine water, too, is afford
ed by the creek. Birch, pine, spruce, hem
lock- cedar, tsmaraek, and cotton wood
are abundant. A saw-miil is within three
miles Of the point, and grist-mill within
twelve miles lumber is held at $50 pei
thousand, and -four at IA ceuts per pound
Some 5000 bushels Of oats, and somewhat
more of wheat, are represented as grow
ing. Our informant has seen one field ot
corn growing Siucc his arrival in that val
ley. He also regards it as "Hs UeTy beSl
agricul,urdL cOEsl.ry" be has seen on the
coast. The Spokane country is very fine
and the two can support a large popula
ton. ColviIc valley is about fifty miles ia
length, with many lateral valleys. 1t is
drained aud watered by stream running
its entire iength--known as Mill Greek
which has several tributaries. Al rise in
the Pend D'OreilIe Mountains. The val
ley is unQuestionably cold in winter, but il
has q dry climate, much like, we presume,
that of Miu0esotr.
The MINEs.-1he miRes on the Pend
D'Orehle and the Salmon, tributary to
the Pend D'Oreille, our informant is salts
fed are very rich aud he is astoushee
that they have MOI been extensively work
ed, as the Indians who live there are very
friendly. Diggings have been found, too
OH Lake Chelan and the 0kiuakane. An,
other intelligent informant, who has secu
much of the mining district of California,
tells US that the small streams after pass
ing the Spokane, arc oil distinguished by
stroGg indications of gold, which would de-
light an experienced California prospecter;
and he feels assured they will, when ex
plored, supply good diggings. They are
full of quartz and slate, and ure otherwise
promising for gold. This matter and the
resources of that whole section, including
the silper bearing district Of the KooteenaiS,
to the norSh and easi--of which we hear
some startling evidence from reliable
quarter, should be thoroughly tested thi,
season.
APPROACHES TO CoLvLLE.-A good wag,
on road is now open from Palousc mouth
to Coville vaiIey-with ferries on the Spok-
ane and Snake rivers wood, water aud
grass are found by the way side in abun
dance.
GENERAL REMARKs.-The land in Col.
vile valley, immediately on the banks oI
Mill Creek, are subject to overflow, aud
we're all submerged this year; as the wa.
ter reccdes, however, the whole valley be.
comes a meadow Of laxuriant grass, which
can be moved in eXlauStleSs quantities :
hence, the most ample provisions eau be
cheaply made for wintering stock, long as
the winter season is. The gently Sloping
sides of the main valley, and of the many
lateral wales, afford large amount Of ag-
ricultural land especially suitable for small
grain, Of which the yield is reported as
very large, even under the primitive, rude
system which has prevailed with the popu-
lation there.-Dalies Journal
