THE P. 3. GENERAL CONVENTION

: ia T.
The prospect for quiet time in the ap-
preaching General Convention of the ,Episco.
pal Church does net look so promising as it
did awhile ago. The Episcopal Recorder of
Philadelphia. says; .,.. mas al; gsiy,
1--WE are advised OF the following facts -
Bishop Hopkins, the presiding Bishop, has
prepared circular letter to the Bishops
proposing letter to the Southern Bishops, to
be signed by each of them, and to be- sent
with such signatures as may be secured. Its
ID ain point is to assure the Southern Bishops
of the cordial welcome with which the Bish-
ops in the loyal diocesses are prepared to
greet them at the appros ching General Con-
vsntion. It takes the grouod that our Church
had no part, direct or indirect, in producing
the war, How many Bishops there are who
have signed or win sligo this letter, we do not
kqow, but we do know that six of them have
already declined to sign it.'' 2ho 't '''N'

Attsmnt to Conceal Tobacco.

Since the conhagration in Richmond, on
the thitd OF April, it has been discovered
that hundreds OF boxe- OF fine manefactur-
ed tobacco were destroyed in secret and out
of the way places where it had been convey
ed by its owners. One man had chimney
filed up with boxes at his store on Carey
streetand lost it ALL Another man had several
hundred boxes stored away between the joice
of his store house floor, and was equally un-
fortunate. A third had nailed up a board
sheeting under his stairway, and had about
eighty boxes deposited there, but the lire
found it out. The tobacco was hid away to
prevent its seizure or impressment by the
Confederate Government; but IN escaping
one agent of destruction, the owners rhfust
their choice leaf into the NAV of an agent
equally relentless. The worst IS over now'
aud the tobacco gone, the losers tell the sto-
n of their loss on themselves.

Boy LOST AND FoUND.-0a Wednesday.
May l7th,.a little son OF Frederick Gaelich
OF Lawrence township. aged about years,
accompanied AN older brother to field on
the farm eff Gov Bigler. where several per-
sons were planting corn. About three o.
clock in the afternoon the child was missing,
and it was thought he had gone home.
When the older boy went to the house at
dark, he inquired for his little brother and
related the circumstance of his leaving the
field unseen, when the reality at once fash
ed across his mothers mind that he was
lost. The alarm was promptly given,
and search was at once commenced by i
number of persons, carrying lanterns. They
soon learned that the child had gone up a
timber road, and into the woods, and dill
gent search was made all nighs without find
ing him. Early on Thursday morning me
sixty persons collected at the place where
the boy was last seen, and formed in line
and started on general hunt. In about
fifteen minutes the glad tidings passed along
the line, che Is found The little fellow
did not seem to be discomposed, as he calmly
remarked Il had no cover last night The
air being very warm, we presume he suffer
ed bat iittie inconvenience for want Of a
cover, although he wa, without hat or
shoes-he having .ost his hat in his peram-
bulations in the forest.
At the request of Mrs. Goelich, (her hus-
band being in the army we embrace this
opportunity to return her sincere and heart
felt thanks to the generous and symparhis-
ing people, who so kindly and promptly res
ponded to the request to 30 in search Of her
lost lt5le son, ani aided in restoring him to
fond mothers embrace God bless you
all, Is her earnest prayer in your behalf.

A Good Hit.

Theadore Tilton, of the. New York hide
pendent, got in ''palpable hit at Bennett,
the other day, in a speech, when he said:
He believed, with Fred Douglas, that
the time had come when the negro must
obtain his full rights The HeraH was in
favor of the ballot for the black man. He
believed that Mr. Bennett did not get ALT
praise to which he was justly entitled for his
two great services to his country; his reftl-
sal to axe the French mission and his advo-
cacy Of the ballot for the negro. Loud
laughter and applause. He very much
feafed that he was growing old, he feared
that he was gray with years, for he had lived
to see the Herald speak the truth.
