| THE LABoRs OF Mr.. LATHRor AT SAN
FRANc1sco-The San Francisco Alta gives
the following gratifying account of the re-
suit of the labors of the Rev. H. D. Lathrop
| at San Francisco:
The Episcopal Church Of this city seems
to have started into new life and energy
during the past year; the seeming listless-
ness Of the past has given way to deter
mination of keeping in the first rank, es-
pecially in the parish above mentioned.
Under their new Rector, Rev. H. ID. La
throp, the church is crowded with hearers
who are thoroughly :mbued with the vast
importance of religious education for the
young. A spacious Sunday School Chapel
is in progress of erection-the first and
finest of the kind on the coast-and it is
proposed to sustain the effort by a concert
to come off next Thursday evening. The
best musical talent has been engaged, and
the programme embraces the finest gems of
the most favorite composers. As the lovers
of good music are las numerous as those
who feel deep interest in the cause of moral
effort, we anticipate crowded house appre-
ciative of rare music and alive to the claims
of this vigorous church organization upon
the best efforts of the public.

STAGE CAPsrzED-DRIvER SERIOUSLY
ISJuRED.-Friday evenings Trespass re-
ports the following:
This morning one of the Bonner Lake
sleighs, driven by Smith Grey, one Of the
safest and best drivers on the route, went Of
the grade Just beyond Halls Pioneer Laun-
dry, severely injuring Grey. From several
of the passengers we learn the same par
ticulars. The team was coming along at
good pace and in making the turn the sleigh,
loaded with eleven passengers and con.
siderable amount of baggage, slowed
and went off the steep grade, turning over
several times, and lodging about fifty feet
below the road. None Of the passengers
were seriously injured, few being some
what bruised, but Grey was caught under
the sleigh and so injured that he could not
walk, and was carried to another sleigh and
brought to his residence in this city, where
he received the proper surgical attendance.
The extent of his injuries is not yet known.
The horses rolled down the steep grade and
tangled in heap, two Of them beneath the
sleigh. The harness was cut, and by the
aid of ropes they were once more got on the
grade-neither of them injured beyond
few scratches. The passengers saved them
selves by jumping on the upper side Of the
grade, and most fortunately we're not in
jured. All agree in pronouncing the accl-
dent one of those unforeseen occurrences that
sometimes happen. This was the last trip,
we are informed, that Grey was to have
driven, as he YVES about to go North to take
charge of another stage line. 1t is very
and will be regretted by many
friends.

WHAT THE FRENCH SOLDIER DOES NOT
FIGHT FORM. Jules Simon has made a
powerful speech in the French Legislative
body on the project for the reorganization Of
the army We translate the closing SEN
fences
We are accustomed to ascertain formulas
ofnational pride which some call chanrinisn,e,
and which are, however, falling into disuse.
Some tell US that the French soldier is the
best soldier in the world. | know nothing
about that. wish to think that he is at least
the equal of any other soldier. But you do
not know the means of makinga soldier the
best soldier in the world. l know it. That
which makes the soldier unconquerable is
the cause for which he fights. Unhappily,
there is one cause which we do not defend-a
sacred cause, a legitimate cause, one which
would make our soldiers invincible; that
cause is liberty. Believe me, embrace this
cause, IN hoe signo rit,ces; otherwise, you
may have agglomerations Of soldiers, you
will not have an army.
This is one of the unpalatable truths which
Napoleon has so often heard of late from
the French Legislature.

THE DEATH OF BARON RoTHsCHILD.

The DEATH OF BARON RoTHsCHILD.
"A letter from Paris says:
"The Baron died during the night
without pain. He was fortunate to
the last. With scarcely a shudder he
passed from this world. 1t was three
in the morning-the family, worn out
with constant watching, had retired
to rest-there were but two servants
near the sick man. All at once the
perfect immobility Of the body attract
ed the attention of the servants, and
they ascertained that life was extinct.
Since then all the family have not left
the chamber where the body lies
The furniture, carpets and all, have
been taken away, and according to
the Jewish rites, the mOurners SIT
there on the bare floor Each morn
ing and evening the friends of the fam
lily meet to pray in that room. Their
clothes are rent, the men do not shave
in this disorder are the outward signs
of woe. As the Baron was mos
kind and affectionate father and hus
band, the inward suffering of those be
reaved must of course be great. From
the synagogue the body will be takel
4 to Pere la Chase, washed and per
fumed there, and then buried accord
ing to the Jewish ceremonial"

Boston Wool Market.

The wool market is steady with a
fair demand, the season, the goods
trade, and all other circumstances con-
sidered. Holders of desirable grades
arc stronger. and there is less pres
sure to realize on woods not wanted
for immediate consumption, with the
money market working easier. Some
of the smaller manufacturers are get
ting short of stocks, and are looking
around for cheap lots of staple, but
with very Indifferent success.
There is now hardly any probable
ity that any circumstances will arise
to depress wool prices below the cur
rent range at any future stage of the
season. On the contrary, with very
small and constantly diminishing
stocks of fleece, prices must material
ly advance with any material increase
of the consumptive demand, such as
may be expected after the first of jan
uary; though, up to that time, the call
will probably be continued to the cur
rent wants of manufacturers.
Choice fine domestic woods are not
yet active; but they are in very mod
crate stock, and firmly held in view
of the fact that they will soon be
wanted to make up Spring goods, and
the still more significant fact that for
eign woods of this class are tending
up In Europe, and not to be had here
except at relatively high prices. Low
and medium Western heeces are a
shade easier, with the demand run
ming mostly on the better grades; bul
stocks of the former are still light and
sold very close up for the season.
Good delaine and combing woods are
much wanted, and the market is near
ly bare of the latter description, while
Canada is scarce and held above the
views of buyers.
Pulled woods are in good demand
and all lots having fair length of
; staple are very quick of sale. The
supply of western superS is gradually
increasing, and prices of these are E;
shade easier. But Eastern supers, a
well as extras, are scarce, and com
| mand relatively high prices. Califor
MIA and Texas woods are quiet. Tn
transactions in foreign are insignif
; cant, and still confined to the lov
= grades.
t Sales of domestic for the week hav
:, been small, and foot up about 600
] 900 lbs. at range OF 46 1-2a5T -
e for fleece, and 34a55c for the variou
: grades OF pulled.
