DR. BREoKrHRIDGE IN A CHARACTER.
tsrIc RoLE.-At the late commence
ment OF exercises at Union College,
Schenectady, says correspondent of
the New York Herald:
A gentleman saw fit to introduce a
series Of resolutions commemorative
Of the life and services OF the late
Right Rev. DR., Alonzo Potter, the 70.
Gently deceased Bishop of the Pennsyl.
vania Episcopate. At the conclusion
of the resolutions the Rev. Dr.. Breck.
lnridge, of Kentucky, was called upon
to speak in their Endorsement and
support. The Doctor rose, and ex-
dressed his wonder that he should
have been called upon TO perform such
part. He knew but little Of DR..
Potter, and that little was hardly of a
character to be elaboraiely alluded to
on such an occasion. He recognized
in the deceased prelate and Bishop
Christian gentleman, an eloqrent
preacher and robust American
but it was simply impossible
for him to endorse in the slightest de-
gree, the controversial powers or writ
ings Of DR.. Potter The entire address
was cold and cherries recognition
Of the dead. This speech called up
several eminent Episcopalians of the
alumni. who warmly defended and eu-
ogized the dead Bishop, but who
we're subjected to several calls to order,
The whole constituting a scene that
Indicated that ecclesiastical angulari-
les and inharmonies of no ordinary
bitterness had been unfortunately
awakened.

DISCOVERY OF TEMPLE OF
Juno AT PoMPEiI.-M Mention was
lately made of the discovery at POM
peii OF q temple of Juno, with more
than three hundred skeletons. Those
remains, which crumbled to dust by
degrees as they were brought to
light, were those of women and chill
dren who had been buried beneath
the burning ashes thrown out by the
volcano at the moment in which a
sacrifice was being offered up in the
temple to the Queen Of the Gods, no
doubt to implore her to avert the ter.
rible calamity which menaced the
city. 10 the arm of one of those
skeletons, which, from the rich Jew.
els with which it was covered, is
supposed to have been that of the
high prlestess, was still attached, by
a gold ring, censer of the same
metal filed with calcined perfumes.
This vessel is Of the form OF those
now used in the ceremonies of Cath
olic churches, and is of beautiful
workmanship and inlaid with pre-
cious stones. The statue of the
goddess is one of the most magnifi-
cent relics yet, found in that city;
Its eyes are of enamel, and on the
neck and arms, as well as at the
ankles, are jewels and bracelets of
precious stones of the most exquisite
finish and elegance of form. The pea
cock placed at her side is almost en-
tirely composed Of precious stones.
The tripod before the altar is, like the
censer held by the high priestess,
magnifcently worked gold. The
temple also contained lamps, artistic
ally chased, of bronze, iron, silver
and gold; branches Of foliage, vine
stems, interspersed with flowers and
Irult OF the most beautiful form. The
space around the altar is paved with
splendid mosaics in excellent pre-
and the rest of the temple
s inlaid with small triangular blocks
# white and purple agate. The
'pot on which the sacrifices were
made is alone paved with marble.
Ali the instruments used ON the occa-
hon were still lying on bronze ta-
he, and the sacred vases were filed
With a reddish matter, which is sup.
'osed to have been blood.

Governor Sharkey's Order for the Org
izatiOM Of u state Milftta-GenernlS SlO-
cum Puts u Complete stop to the MOve-
ment, &c.
From the Chicago Republican, August 3ol
Governor Sharkey has fallen into trouble. Though no
longer young man, he is decidedly too fast He travels
out Of the record He transcends his authority. He
fancies himself greater poentate than he is He has
already got himself snubbed by the military authorities
in the State He will he reprimanded by his superiors
Washington. He ought TO be removed and man of
common sense well as of patriosm-a man who has
some practical judgment and knows what he is about
should be made provisional governor in hls place.
Governor Sharkey has thought proper 10 appoint
courts and sherifs and TO set foot system Of his
own for the administration Of justice His commission
and his instructions give him power 10 establish such
institutions The people of Mississippi have had JUS
ce except of the military kind since they rebeled and
States Under the rebel rule this military justice
Of the worst description since the con-
quest of the State il has been immensely i'm
proved In its quality. However, they have not got on
very well with this military system, and we dare say
Sharkey hates IT much Horace Greeley does. But
that does not empower him rush ahead with his
projects, like steam engine without balance wheel
The Missssppans can have civil justice, and that only,
Just they out Of rebellion and in the Union
Sharkey might well not precipiate its bene
fits upon them by his own autOcratiC decree.
He has also undertaken to raise military establish
ment He has ordered that two companies OF soldiers o
the State of Mississippi shall be organized and armed in
every county On this subject decisive counter order
will be likely 10 reach him from Washington
Meanwhile however, General Socum the military com
mander OF the State has taken the matter in hand, as
his duty and has directed that no such military or
ganzaton shall take place anywhere in the State HI
surrender the United States officers all arms In
their possession. This will check the military ardor OF
Governor Sharkey, but II WILL in the end, we think,
prove beneficial TO the people OF Mississippi
