SOUTHERN EPIscoPALIANs.-The reunion
of the Protestant Episcopal Church, which,
! by the action of the Southern. General
I Council, seemed to be indefinitely put off
has suddenly become almost complete. The
presiding bishop of the Southern organiza
ton, Bishop Elliot, of Georgia, has notified
Bishop Hopkins, presiding bishop of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, that he has
withdrawn from the confederation Of the
Southern diocescs, and that Georgia returns
to TIE Protestant Episcopal Church of the
United States. The Bishop of Mi-sissipp
had previously taken this step, surrender
inc" as he expressed himself, /" to the noble
course pursued by the General Convention.
The Church Journal expects that the BishcI
of Alabama viii at or,ce take the same step
I This leaves only the dioceses Of Virginia
South Carolina, and Florida to form tn,
Southern Confederation. The Bishop o
Virginia is known to be strongly in favor 0
reunion.
