Episcopy and the Masses.

A Correspondent of the Protestar
Cha Gilman (EpiscopaD says: L
eThe failure of our Church to reach tn
masses" is painfully true. 1t is true no

ESPECIALLY in the Great West There w

plies:
i "Fhe writer of the article above quot
ed ascribes the Church's failure to its lit
urgical service but the difficulty lies moi
here. If we thought it did, we would
abandon the liturgy tomorrow. The diff
ticulty is not in the service itself, but in
its use-in forcing it everywhere, and un
-der all circumstances in all its fullness up
on people wholly unaccustomed to liturgi
cal forms. The masses do not like the
service as thus used, and they will not
have it. They will go where there is more
variety and freedom. Never rs church
shall we succeed with the people till they
are permit ID to adapt our services to the
various circumstances in which they are
found A flexible service would be at
tractlye. long intlexible service, un-
changed and Interchangeable, will be sure
to repel Il bars gt2G s.1
But the great hindrance to the Church's
growth is the exclusive position assumed
at the present day by so many Of its min
listers and members. Tais exclusiYeness
is distasteful to the American people, and
utterly antagonistic to the spirit of the
age in which we live. 1t is enough of it.

which is rightfully theirs under fair in

to them the disposition to recognize, I'M
der all proper circumstance, the Christian
standing and character of the other great
Christian organizations Of the day, and
there is no limit to their usefulness and
power. But deny them this freedom, shut
them out from the privilege of giving re-
cognition and fellowship to the other
Protestant Churches of Christ, especially
when the corrupt churches of the East are
recognized--do this, and the growth of

How the Government Bonds are Taxed.

precisely the same income tax on his bonds

The government bonds are taxed FIVE
per cent on their interest as an income
tax, just the same as all other incomes,
from what ever source. In the West there
are very few bonds held by the people,
except in banking, insurance, and the like

WALKING ON WATER-An interesting
experiment was recently made at Hayre,
rance An American named Stoner,
dr. SGD in al "a lats costume OF his own
Invention, and accompanied by friend
similarly attired, jumped into the sea
from a steamer and moved about in the
water in an erect attitude, the waite I
only up to the breast. He and his friend
ate and drank provisions, which they
nad taking with them IN tin hox, they
ired off pistols hoisted flag upon the
box, lay down upon the water, and pre-

as much at their case as if they mad been

companion left the water, the motion Of
the waves having made him feel rather
,easick Dir. Stoner remainded longer
and went long way out to sea. When
he returned on board, he took off his
sea going costume, and the sandals loadgC

FREEDMAN's BUREAU-It is good
thing to shut up Cops mouth, once in .
while, with a great lump Of fact They
have wonderful yarns to spin about the
Freedmen's Bureau.
Here's fact: The Freedmen's Bureau
cost the Government in3 years $7,000000.
Out Of this was fed, the last, more white
people than black The poor people
who received aid from the Bureau, raised
cotton in three years, the taxes alone
upon which paid to the Government,
amounted to $66,000,000, making clear
profit of that one institution to the Gov
ernment Of $59,00O000. When and
where has any Democratic investment
paid so well?

What the Democracy Will Do if they arr
Successful.

W nat Inc democracy VIII 10 II Uney are
Successful.
The fourth resolution of the Democratic
platform calls for equal taxation on ev-
cry species OF property according to its
real value, including Government bonds
and other public securities Let us see
what this means. Congress has removed
the tax tram ogsr ten M0usand dG19ront ar
t5c{es which are constantly used by rich
and poor The tax now levied is upon
spirits, fermented liquors, gas, and a few
other articles which cannot be really
classed as necessities. If the Democratic
party is successful in the coming election,
the sentiment of the above resolution will
be carried out. Equal tarotion qciU be lec-
I'D up0n upon e0ery species Of property, and
you will see Democratic tax gatherers In
every street, lane, highway and by-way OF
the land demanding and collecting from
you taxes upon

Your house and lot
Your horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry
and other stock
Your wheat, oats, corn and other grain,

agricultural implements.

which taxes everything equally.
/ And for what?
Simply that the bonds may be tax

Yes, this Democratic equality would

Who Made War 2

Oh, Copperhead, why continue TO in
suit the common sense Of mankind by the
continued iteration and reiteration of the
threadbare and protitless lie that the "Re
publican party brought on the war" Mr.
Lincoln was elected in November, 1850
He was not inaugurated until March 4th,
1861 As private citizen he could not,
between the above dates, wage war much.
But sec what the rebels, encouraged by
the Northern Democrats did mean
while
They captured Fort Moultries and Cas-.
tie Pinckney Dec goth.
Took Fort Pulaski January 3D.
Seized the Mount Vernon Arsenal, Ala
bama, with 100000 stand of arms, Jan
3D.
Seized Fort Morgan, Mobile, January
4th hga ,1
Fired on the sta, elite Vest going to

Captured Pensacola Navy Yard and
Fort McRae, January 14th
Took Baton Rouge Arsenal, January
18th.
Sized New Orleans Mint and Custom
House, January Goth.
Seized Little Rock Arsenal, February
ID
So Mr. Lincoln found a war already
MADE to his hands as soon rs he took his
place in the office to which the. people
had called him-war full grown and lus-
ty. lie had his choice to do his duty as
the Executive head Of the Republic, or
lie down in his tracks and let his country
die. He was about as much responsible
for the war as for the massacre of st.
Bartholomew. Copperhead you know

were reflected all around about me, and a
more truthful pencil than mine was needed
to sketch the outline. Not more than that

the gambols of the father and the child.
They seemed to watch for the dew to fall

I step forth and announce my arrival ?

Such was Cottage Grenoble and it's in

threshold, and as we saw it years agone.-
The fair picture often steals in on the
memory, and dispels every cloud But no
ounce of JOY is without its pound of sor-
row no hour of festive mirth is ever with
out its long days depression no life is
without its bitterness. The French may
live on their grand chere ct beau fen. Yet
the cheer of man is very small portion of
his existence, and his fire is but kindled to
be quenched.
