EpiscopaI Church south.

MEssRs. ED1ToRs = The following ex-
tract is from the pOstOal letter of the
Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church
in the revOlted States, to the Churches un-
der their care, taken from the Tribune of
the 23d inst. Stephens, of Georgia, laid
the corner stone Of the Confederacy on
slavery. The Bishops not less emphatic
ally and distinctly plant their national
life enthusiastically on the same system,
and no peace Democrat, disunionist or
seeessionist, with common share of in
telligence or honesty, can deny that this
is the teaching of this letter: D.S.S.
at is likewise the duty Of the Church to
press upon the masters of the country their
obligation, as Christian men,so to arrange
this institution as not to necessitate the
violation of those sacred relations which
God has created, and which man cannot,
consistently with Christian duty, annul.
The systems of labor which prevail in
Europe and which are, in many respects,
more severe than ours, are so arranged as
to prevent all necessity for the separation
of parents and children, and of husbands
and wives, and very little care upon our
part would rid the system upon which we
are about to plant our national life, of
these unchristian features. It belongs,
to the Episcopal Church TO urge
q proper teaching upon this subject, for in
her fold and in her congregations are found
a very large proportion of the great slave
holders of the country. We rejoice to be
enabled to say that the public sentiment
is rapidly becoming sound upon this sub
ject and that the Legislatures Of several
Of the Confederate States have already
taken steps towards this consummation. |
Hitherto have we been hindered by the |
pressure of Abolitionism; now that we have |
thrown off from us that hateful and inf
lei pestilence, we should prove to the world |
hat we are faithful to our trust, and the |
Church should lead the hosts of the Lord |
n this work of justice and mercy"

The United stntes Hospital.

EDITOR LEADER: Permit me to say few
words in your excellent paper in regard to
our Cleveland Post Hospital. A sympathy
alone for those who have fOrsaken homes and
friends for the love of country, has induced
me several times to visit the hospital now
located in our midst, where many of our
brave boys, disabled by wounds and sick
ness, are making their temporary homes.
The entire control and management of the
Hospital is under the supervision of U. S.
Surgeon MeCIurg, gentleman of high moral
worth, and we'll qualified for the position as
signed him. In conversing with him, We
were forcibly impressed with his entire devo-
tion to the happiness and welfare of those
under his care.
In passing through the different depart
ments and wards of the hospital, everything
presented a scene Of neatness and comfort
which reflects much credit on the Manager of
the Institution. The Ward Masters are gen
tlemen, we should think, well calculated to
make all happy around them. We can but
congratulate our wounded and sick soldiers
in having their lot cast in so coed home.
Their worthy Chaplain, Rev. S. NJ. Beatty,
is just the man for the place. lie is con-
stantly busy in procuring papers and books
for the sick, comforting and cheering them
by words of sympathy, and we trust is doing
much good in his new sphere Of labor.
We will close by saying it will well pay
any one for their time and trouble to pass
through the different wards and departments
of the Cleveland Post Hospital, and many
housewife would be taught q useful lesson by
6 nd Auo hot
prevail in the cOOk-room and dining halls.

COLD WEATHER.-We never owned a
thermometer, and never studied our neigh
bors', particularly, so we can't say precisely
how cold it was lastnight, or how cold it is
to-day, by Fahrenheit. Weentertain gen
eral idea that the mercury ranges so low that
it is necessary to get down on hands and
knees to read it. A thermometer may be
very useful to science, but we imagine that
good coal fire is quite superior to it in cold
weather-to have in the family. Does man
grow suddenly warmer when he discovers,
by consulting thermometer, that the mer-
curry isn't so low by about degree and half
as he thought it was We don't see it.
Ears and noses, and we may add, tOeses,
are very good thermometers. They tell US
how cold it is, and possess the advantage of
being easily referred to at any time.
People circulate at quickened pace o-day
in order to quicken circulation. They alter
nately mufle their ears with their hands to
get their ears warm, and thrust their hands
into their pockets to get their hands warm.
The people who rub their cold hands to-
gether in this weather and smile, are the ice
men. They were getting very gloomy, and
cross, and anxiOus, but now they are in ex-
taeies. The cold which pinches the faces Of
other people into hard scoWls, and makes
them say bad words, sufuses with summer
smiles the countenanee of the ice man, and
his conversation is SO correct as to provoke
the exclamation, "what (n) ice man -
