FOREIGN EXrxNsIoN OF THE EPISCOPAL
CHuRCH.-The Church Journal of this week
contains two appeals for the extension of the
privileges and rules Of the Episcopal Church
IN foreign parts. One is for the provision of
missionary, bisnop In Hayti. A writer SAYS
that the work Is progressing rapidly in that
island, and has already reached point which
'-mafes permanent Episcopal care a neces-
sity," there being now not less than six candi-
dates for orders. and che expense and risk of
voyages TO this county for ordination are too
great 10 be- horne. Thesother is q requ from
Liberia for the establishment of colonial epis-
COpnl organization In that country, under the
Jurisdiction OF the present missionary bishop
DR. Payne. The committee in Philadelphia
make an appeal for $500 20 support the col.
Ored clergymen OF Liberia, of which 50 900 are
already subscribed. They say:
by prosecuting the work with energy, in
few years some of the parishes will not only
become self-supporting. but IL Will secure for
our church chief place OF influence i'm the
Republic. and hasten the erangelzation of
Africa; for, in the Ian guagp Of one of her most
gifted sons, The continent Of Africa is to be
reclaimed for Christ through the agency of
civilized black men; by organizing the na-
tive labor around them; by Introducing and
regulating Law among them: by gathering their
children into schools. in order 10 train their
intellecis; by making them a civilized and
Christian people; by incorporating them into
the Republic as citizens, and into the church
of God as brethren"

WASHINGTON. April l2-In both Houses OF
Congress. ..to.dey. eulogies were delivered upon
the late Senator Foote.
In the Senate. Mr.. Stewart presented joint
resolution proposing on amendment to the Con-
stitutiop, prohibiting distinctions on account
color, and the payment of the Confederate
debt also, providing that when any of the
seeded States shall comply with ite conditions,
it shall be entitled to rep, esentation.
Tho House passed the Senate bill autborix
ing the the President to transfer gunbost to
the Liberian Government
SoUTH CARoLrNA.-A late Washington special
to the New York Times gives the statement oi
Major Walker, of the Unted States Cavalry
regular army, respecting the political and 80
cial condition Of South Carolina.
The Major has just returned frone that sec
tion of. the country, and gives most encoura-
ging account of these matters. He says the
freedmen every Iywhere are busily and peacefully
at work. and there seemed to.be no signs Of
'idleness or discomfort anywhere. The only
serious troubles in the State lately have resulted
from the depredations and outrages Of guer.
rilla band calling Themselves regulators or re-
formere.
The receipts Of cotton at Liverpool, during
the week ending March q, reached the number
of l36,761 bales. These are probably the hea.
West receipts ever known in that market for
similar period. and it is not surprising that
prices gave way under them. The only won.
| der is that the fall was not greater. The bulk
Of the imports came from India.
RuMonxp RELEASE OF Mn. DAv1s.-The spec.
iaL Washington correspondent of the New
York Nees telegraphs that it is rumored there
that the President announced to his cabinet on
Friday, that it was his intention to release Mr.,
Davis from Fortress Monroe, upon his paroi.
that be will not leave the contry without per-
| mission.

GIN HOUSE AND !; CorroN BunSED-We re-

the Gin House Of Mr. James Drennan, a highly
respected citizen. on Long Cane, .was destroyed
by fire, together with twenty Ave bales of cot
ton and a considerable quantity, of cotton
seed. The fire is.suppossd to have been the
work of an iuceudiary.< An investigationYwas
had on Saturday last before the military au-
thorities at this place, and number of freed.
men were examined, but no very direct or re-
liable testimony was elected. Should the tes.
timony adduced warrant it, the case will be
sent up for trial.. We trust that no effort will
be spared, to bring the guilty parties to de-
served punishment.
