RishOn Atkinson,

At meeting of the Standing Committee
of the Diocese of North Carolina, held in
Raleigh, on the 18th inst, the following ex-
tract Of a letter recently received from Bishop
Atkinson was read:
my health has improved so much that I
no longer consider my case one contemplated
by the canons which allow Bishop an as
sistant. think, therefore, the choice of one
by the diocesan convention at its adjourned
meeting, if such a choice were made, would
be imperative, and that consequently as the
meeting would be source OF trouble and
expense, it would be best to have it post
poned till the next annual convention"
Upon which it was,
Resolced, That in the opinion of the Stand
ing Committee, it is advisable that the con-
templated convention of the diocese in No
vember be indefinitely postponed.
Rsso1eed, That the Church Intelligencer and
the secular newspapers of the State friendly
to the Episcopal Church be requested to
publish this notice R. s. MASON,

CIVILIZATION WEAKENs AS WELL AS
THENs.-Society never advan.
ces it recedes on one side as it gains
on the other. 1t undergoes consider
able changes it is barberous, it is chris
TANNED, it is rich, it is scientific, but
this change is ameliorated. For every
thing that is given, something is taken.
Society acquires new arts, and losses
old instincts. What contrast be-
tween the well-clad, reading, writing,
thinking American, with a watch, a
pencil, and bill of exchange in his
pocket, and the naked New Zealander,
whose property is club, a spear, q mat,
and an undivided twentieth of shed
to sleep under! But compare the health
of the two men, and you will see that
the white man has lost his aboriginal
strength. If the traveller tells us truth
fully, strike the savage with broad
axe, in day or two the flesh shall unite
and heal as if yon had struck the blow
into soft pitch, and the same blow shall
shall send the white man to his grave.
The civilized man has built coach,
but has lost the use of his feet. He is
supported on crutches, but lacks the sup
port of muscle. He has fine Wal
than watch, but he fails of the skill to
tell the hour by the sun. A green
witch nautical almanac he has, but be-
ing as shure of the information when
he wants it, the man in the street does
NOT knovv a STAR in the Slsva The sol
stice he does not observe; the equinox
he knows as little, and the whole bright
calendar Of the year is without a dial
in his mind. His note books impair
his memory; his libraries overload his
wit; the insurance Office increases the
number of accidents; and may be a
question whether machinery does not
cucumber; whether we have not, lost
by refinement some energy, by a chris
tlanity entrenched in forms and estab-
lishments some vigor of wild virtue.
