sTELLA. Owe oF TIE LOST.

Among the lost of the Egeaiag Star was yOunl
girl, who was born near Louisville, Ky. who wa
remarkable for her marvellous beauty and reckless
life. Betrayed by one whom she trusted. sht
abandoned home and family. and followed hel
seducer to New: York, where she entered upon
life of infamy. A Bohemian Of that city tells hel
story in the following lines:
Far out in the West, where the log huts lay
Bathed in the gloom of a closing day,
With naught her joy TO mar,
Lived a maiden fair, with golden hair,
Whose form did well with her name compare
Twas Stella. the Evening Star.
Far away from the North the tempter came,
And the log huts told n tale Of shame
As many as there are
Of affection past of maiden cast
Adriff to encounter alone lie's blast
Poor Stella, the Evening Star.
Far away to the East. mid din and strife,
Bartering her soul for the means of life,
And bearing the branded scar
That the world best0ws with its sneers and blows
Unsparingly on the heads of those
Like Stella, the Evening Star.
Far AWAY TO the South. aye. out Of the world
With the twin-named ship that the tempest hurl'C
And stript of mast and SPAR
Went down in the deep--she lies asleep
And the merciful waves increasingly weep
Ger Stella, the Evening Star.

THE CONDEMNED FENIANS.
Reply Of Sir 4. w. Bruce TO Mr.. Seward
--Thc Question of Execution Referred
to the Queen.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Is, lS66.-SIR: l have
the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your
note of the 9th ult, relating to the senten-
ces Of death passed on J. LYNCH and j.
MCMAHON, in Canada, and stating the views
entertained by the Governmental theUnited
States. and the various considerations of law,
policy and humanity which might be ex-
pected to arise in the course Of the trials of
the individuals concerned in the raid COM
menced on Canada last spring.
Immediately on the receipt of that note
transmitted a copy of it to her Majesty
Government and await their instructions
before entering at length upon the several
and weighty subjects contained in it.
The course pursued by the Canadian Gov
eminent in bringing these cases before the
regular tribunals of justice, thus securing to
the prisoners the full protection which the
law affords to the accused, and the readiness
shown by them to communicate all such
documents TO the Consul of the United States
as may throw light on the justice Of the SEN
fences and the regularity of the proceedings,
will, | trust, satisfy the Government Of the
United States that, while vindicating the
majesty Of the law, the authorities do not
conduct the prosecutions in any vindic-
tive or harsh spirit
1 am, moreover, authorized to state that
the whole question of the disposal Of such Of
the prisoners as may be convicted has been
referred for decision to Her Majesty's Gov
eminent, who will certainly be animated by
a desire so to deal with it as to secure peace
and harmony between the population living
in such immediate proximity and separated
by long frontier 50 easily traversed.
| have the honor 10 be, with the highest
consideration, sir, your most obedient and
, humble servant,
FREDERICK W. BRUCE.

HEAVEN AND HoME.-I was reading the
other day, that on the shore of the Adriatic
sea, the wives of the fishermen, whose hus-
bands have gone far ont upon the deep, are
in the habit at eventide, Of going down to
the sea shore and singing as female voices
only can, the first stanza ofa beautiful hymn;
after they have sung it, they listen till they
hear, borne by the wind across the desert
sea, the second stanza, sung by their gallant
husbands as they are tossed by the gale upon
the waves, and both are happy. Perhaps, if we
too, might hear on this desert world of ours,
some sound, some whisper borne from afar,
to .remind us that there is a heaven, and a
home; and when we sing the hymn upon the
shores of earth, perhaps we shall hear its
sweet echoes breaking in music upon the
sand of time, and cheering the hearts Of
them that are pilgrims and strangers and,
look for city that hath foundations.-Dr.

RELIGIOUS MATTERS,
The Clerical Association OfGIIe EpiscO-
pal CIIurcEi-EHee1s of High Church
RIfualisnt

4 largely attended meeting was held on
| Monday evening last in the Church Of the
| Holy Trinity, under the auspices Of the
Clerical Association Of the Protestant Epis-
| copal Church. II closed the Evangelical
Anniversary meetings which began on We'd
nesday Rev. DIR. DYER presided, and ex-
| planned that the Clerical Association was
engaged in vindicating and defending evan
gelical truth against its enemies in the
church.
Rev. Mr.. CHENEY, Of Chicago, spoke
against some Of what he termed the nonsen-
steal and ridiculous forms of the Episcopal
church. and said that the manner in which
the church had offered the truth Of Christ TO
the people had been so exclusive and cold
that the hearts Of the multitudes were re-
PEELED instead ofbeingattracteda and comfort
ed
Rev. Dr. NEWTON, of Philadelphia, said
that the ritualism of the church had sue
ceeded to an alarming extent in drawing the
hearts of the people from Christ. The exis-
tence Of these errors of ritualism were most
appalling. and the only means at present
within reach 20 counteract the influences at
work against spiritual truth were those en-
ployed by the societies whose Eleeting had
been held this week.
Bishop JOINS, of Virginia, said that the
more the truth was clothed with meretri-
cious exhibition and attractions the less was
its power and efficacy toward reconciliation
and salvation. If genuhexions and peculiar
attitudes and singular movements are ne
cessary to approach the throne Of Grace, he
thanked God that he had found God gracious
and merciful to him without their assistance.
Bishop LEE, of Delaware, said that it was
at great price that the Protestant Episco-
pal Church had obtained the freedom it
now enjoyed of worshipping God
Rev. DIR. JOHN CoTToN SMITH said that
the presiding bishop of the church had pub
lished book, in which he advocated the
Of the Jewish host and therefor
Of church in this city had introduced
prayers for the dead. The speaker charged
the ritualists with treason against the church.
Bishop PAYNE, of Africa, and Rev. DIR.
TYING also made brief remarks.

\ CASE OF CoNsCIENCE--We mentioned
some weeks ago the theft Of the communion
baskets ofSt Michael's Church, and request
cd the sacrilegious wretch TO return them,
more on account Of their associations than
for their intrinsic value. No truth has been
proved so plainly as that conscience makes
towards Of us all for the thief, fearing the
evil consequences of his deed, took advan-
tage Of the time and deposited the baskets
in the vestry room Saturday night, while the
vsrkmen were busy on the inerior
Of the church. We are requested TO thank
the individual for his disinterested kindness,
and assure him that the restoration is appre-
ciated, as the baskets were mementoes Of a
peculiar nature. The church was kept open
rather late that evening, and the thief must
have watched his opportunity, as the vestry
room was unoccupied for only 4 few min
utes.-C Charleston NerS

AK editor in Illinois, says an exchange,
recently saw a patent clothes-washer Ii was
in TIE shape Of a wheelbarrow. The revo-
buttons Of the wheel put in motion a crank
that moved a plunger that pounded the
clothes. The body Of the box was mounted
where she load is in a wheelbarrCw. On the
top Of the box was a wringer. a lady can
put her clothes in her machine, pick it up
and 20 cut calling, the longer her list Of
friends the further she will have to wheel
her burden, and the better her clothes will
be washed. Calling will then be ofsome use,
