For May, has been awaiting notice for
some time past. Miss Maiorihanks'' is con
cluded in this number, and is one of tile
hnest novels that has appeared within the
last year. .'Sir Brooke Fossbrooke' is still
continued, and is becoming intensely inte
resting. "The Memoirs of the Confederate
War for independence" is also continued
and Won Borcke still maintains his Nun |
chausen reputation. 1.-THE Negro and the |
Negrophilists'' is from the pen of South |
ern Secessonist, who serves up in II Nuga
zine article, what might be a rehash of |
Saulsbuiy's speeches. The most readable
article in this number is about the Gin
sizes, and some curious personal adventures
are given. English politics are discussed in
old Tory fashion in 1.-The Reform Bill. "

Right Rev, Bishop Lee, the presiding officer
OF the Diocese of Delaware, is now in Phia.
delphia, performing the duties OF the Office
of Bishop Stevens After the departure of
that prelate, the honored Bishop Vail of
Kansas, kindly assumed the ardu0us labors
of this broad diocese. Recalled 10 his own
sphere by imperative labor, the Church in
Pennsylvania was left without n head Bish
op Lee is now in Philadelphia performing
the rites of ordination and confirmation.
Last week, at the Church OF the Holy Trinity,
ne confirmed the young collegiates from the
Divinity School. This evening he will ad
minister the solemn rite of confirmation at
the Church OF the Messiah in Port Rich
mond. The novelty of confirmation ser.
vice so late in the season, and the general
desire to see and hear the reverend prelnte.
VIII ensure full church. The labors of the
Bishop OF this diocese, like the tinerant
drudgery of Methodist minister who car
rles ms portable library over circuit of
twenty miles diameter can only he apprc.
ciated by those who have practically horne
the burden.
