TKE EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND THE Ma
T1oNAL TROUBLES N. Y. Church
Journal states that there will be no schis.
matical division of the Episcopal Church in
consequence Of the separation of the Con-
federacy. In the organization Of that
Church each State composes Diocese, and
each Diocese, like each State, is sovereign
and independent Their national organize,
tion resembles the. Federal organization,
and consequently according to the Journats
not only will the effects Of State secession,
upon the diocesan relations of the church
10 the eeceded States be at once recognized,
but where, as in the case of the Bishopric
of Alabama, the concurrence of the Nation
al Episcopate may be necessary to fill va
cancy, the promptest measures will be Ia
ken by the Northern Bishops to give the
requisite sanction to the elections in Ala.
bama, and to every other act necessary for
the entire independence of all the dioceses
in the Seeded States. This is in perfect
harmony with the noble attitude of the f.
piscopal Church in the North from the be.
ginning, which has always and everywhere
set its face as flint against abolitionism,
and every other ism, and which is composed
of body Of clergy and iaity which would
have done honor to any age and any nation
of the Christian Church. -. f.

THE Policy OF THE SOUTHERN Con-.

THE Policy OF THE SOUTHERN Con-
M1ssIoNERs.- ERs.-WAsHINGToN, March 3d.
The nervousness which has been privately
developing itself for two or three weeks
past at the South, in regard to the policy of
the Confederate States Commissioners at
Washington, has broken out at last in a
captious leader in the New Orleans Delta,
which will be followed up, it is understood,
by general volly from the entire war wing
of the secessionists To the ability and con.
summats tact and address of the Commission
ers the country is indebted for the peace it
now enjoys, and the removal of federal
troops from the seeded States, which will
soon take place. Their policy has been
"masterly inactivity" from the start-par-
ley, diplomacy, the avoidance Of all abrupt
issues, accepting every overture for time,
with the conscious knowledge that if the
administration could afford to ask for delay
their true policy was to give it. By this
means an opportunity has been afforded
President Davis to concentrate an over
force on Fort Pickens, rendering
its abandonment necessity, and affording
time for deliberation on the question, which
must inure to interests of peace.-N York
Herald.

Mr. RUSSELL AT CHARLEsToN.-Th0
reader is already aware that the London
Times has dispatched Mr. W. Fl. Russell
to this country as a special correspondent.
His expected arrival at Charleston is. ah-
nounced in the papers of that city. As the
representative of the leading Journal Of Eu:
rope, Mr.. Russell will be accorded facilities
for gaining information such as would be
granted to no man from Northern State Of
the Union, unless he were known to be fully
10 sympathy with the insurgents. The
strong desire, too, for a recognition or some
kind consideration on the part Of the Brit
ish Government will procure for him de-
gree Of protection from danger and insult,
such as the correspondent Of any Northern
Republican journal might look for in vain.
More than this, Mr.. Russell, as the record.
er Of the events in the Crimean war and
the East Indian insurrec.ion, has reputa-
ton as extensive as the English language,
and this, with the position and influence Of
the London Times, will afford the. fullest
guaranty against isstatements originating
in personal malevolence or party prejudice.
His letters, therefore, will possess degree
of reliability such as few other writers can
lay claim to, and they will doubtless be
perused with avidity by countless readers
both in the Southern and Northern States.

PRETTY ROMANCE SPOILED r

A PRETTY ROMANCE Spo1LED.-Tbe
"gallaut" correspondent of the New York
Times went little too far when he para
ded the overwhelming attention which he
professed to receive from Col. Maxcy Gregg.
All about the "fair lady" may be strictly
true, @ but certain are We that this vera
cious correspondent is total stranger to
Col. Gregg. Col. Gregg did not know
there was such biped in the city until the
advent of his letter, and we are of opinion
the knowledge which he now possesses will
not strew roses in his path. Col. Gregg's
affability is everywhere acknowledged but
what be might, could, would, or should do
in an emergency like this, We are sure we
don't know. In the meantime let US ask,
what will be the next story, and who will
be made to father p Charleston Mercury.

oldest, most respectable citizens. About
five o'clock on Monday afternoon be was
summoned before the committee, and then
and there informed, for the first time, that
he was suspected, and that it was necessary
for him to decamp without further delay
He at first hesitated in admitting his guilt,
but upon one of his letters being produced,
at once perceiving that he was entrapped,
he acknowledged to the whole matter and con.
fessed that he was deserving the traitors
doom. The committee informed that, in
consideration of his wife and two little chill.
dren, it had been determined that he should
be allowed to depart with his neck unbro.
ken, although the righteous indignation Of
the people generally pronounced in favor
of his being suspended to the nearest tree.
After arranging his affairs in such man.
ner as to secure creditors against loss, this
senior Committee turned him over to anoth.
er Committee, composed of younger men,
consisting of twelve, who were to have ex,
elusive charge of him, and were instructed
to place him on the cars the next morning
for immediate transport to more congenial
cline. This duty they performed satisfac,
torily, and at early dawn on Tuesday morn
ing he was escorted to the Depot, and start.
ed for Indiana or some other free State
Before this, however, the said Committee
conducted him to the suburbs of the town
and in the still hours of the night, after re.
ceiving full confession of bis guilt and g
voluntary acknowledgment that his traitor
GUS conduct deserved nothing short of death,
twenty stripes were administered in ap
proved style He made no resistance, and
felt grateful, be said, that his punishment
was so light. Afterwards his hair wa'
closely clipped on the right side.-Ander
