TIE LATE BISHOP HOPKINS OF VERMONT
We have already had the telegraphic announce
ment Of the death Of Bishop Hopkins, OF Yer
mont, at his residence, near Burlington, in
that State.
Bishop Hopkins was senior Bishop Of the
Episcopal Church. He was born in Dublin on
the 9Oth OF January, 1892, and was therefore in
the seventy sixth year Of his age at the time OF
his decease. He was intended for the law, but
after receiving q classical education ne passed
year in counting-room in Philadelphia. In
his nineteenth year he commenced the manu-
facture Of iron in Pennsylvania, and five years
later married daughter of Caspar Otto Null
Ter, retired merchant Of Baltimore. Having
lost all his means by the prostration Of the iron
trade, consequent upon the peace OF lS15, he
turned his attention to the law, and in 1878 was
admitted to the bar in Pittsburg. After pur-
suing his profession for several years ne enter
ed the ministry, and when ordained was
chosen, in 1924, rector Of Trinity Church,
Pittsburg, whore he soon became prominent.
In the Diocesan Convention Of 1877, he
was nominated for tho Office Of Assistant
Bishop of Pennsylvania, DIR. b. o. Onderdonk
being the opposing candidate. The votes be-
ing equally divided, MIR. Hopkins cast his vote
for MIR. Onderdonk, and thus secured the cleo
tion Of the latter. In 1881 MIR. Hopkins was
called to Trinity Church, Boston, an assistant
minister, and was chosen soon afterwards Pro-
fessor of Systematic Divinity in the Theological
Seminary in that State. In the spring OF 1882
he was elected first Bishop Of Vermont, serving
at the same time as rector OF st. Pauls Church,
Burlington. In 1886 he resigned his rector
ship to devote himself more unreserVedly to
the charge of the diocese. and to the building
up Of the Vermont Episcopal Institute. Last
year Bishop Hopkins attended the Pan Angh-
can Synod, hold at London. He WAS all his
life diigent student and prolific writer: In
his latter days his sympathy with the South
gained him many warm admirers in that sec
ton, but brought him into corresponding
odium at the North. His work entitled "a
Defence of Slavery" is the one by which he
is best known to the generality OF readers.

The Discoveries IN JERUsALEM.-The Lon
don Times publishes an interesting letter in
regard to the discoveries in progress at Jeru-
salem, from which we select the following:
The colossal foundations Of the temple wall,
which are ''stones of ten cubits and stones OF
eight cubits," laid by Solomon or his success
sors on the throne are now being laid bare at
the enormous depth OF ninety feet and more
beneath the present surface. The bridge that
once spanned the ravine between the palace on
Zion and the temple on Moriah is now proved
to have been upwards of ono hundred and
fifty feet high. If this be, as it seems, the
ascent to the house of the Lord which Solo,
mon showed to the Queen of Sheba, we can
not wonder that, on seeing it, there was no
spirit in her. The pinnacle Of the temple on
which the tempter placed the Saviour, has Just
been uncovered to The base, and is found still
to have an elevation of one hundred and thirty
six feet. The statement Of Josephus ID there
fore no c1aggeration. 'R any one looked
from the battlements into the valley he would
be giddy, while his sight could not reach to
such an immense depth. Sections OF the m
cient walls of Ophel have been exhumed, show
ing that, as Josephus says, it was joined to the
southeast angle of the temple. Aqueducts,
clsterns, rock-hewn channels and passages
have also been discovered within and around

the harem, throwing new light on the build
ings, the arrangements, and the services Of
the temple. The great work Of complete ex-
ploration of ancient Jerusalem is thus fairly
and auspiciously commenced. The opportune
visit Of the Sultan and grand vizier to this
country, and the representations made to the
latter by the Archbishop of York, followed up
as they have been by the energy, the wisdom
and tack of Lieutenant Warren and his admi-
rabel staff, have smoothed down Moslem pre-
judice, removed local opposition, and thus
brought about opportunities for excavation
and exploration snch as never occurred before;
and, besides, large numbers Of Arab laborers
have been trained to the work and are eager to
be employed, and the exact points for success
f1l exploration are now well known.

The Freedmen's Bureau.

General Howard has made his annual repor
respecting the operations OF the freedmen
Bureau for the past year. which presents tns
following results Twenty-eight citizen agents
and forty-eight officers Of the volunteer serves
have been replaced by officers OF the regular
army. and a further reduction OF the burear
force will be made when registration IN the
South is completed.
The bureau still holds possession OF 95t
pieces Of town property and 215,024 acres o.
farm land. Transportation has been furnished
to IT'S refugees and 1881 freedmen, at an ex
pense Of s1O2, ,O9S.99. During the year $685.
white refugees and 10S, ,599 9freedmen have been
treated by the medical department of the bu.
reau; the mortality among the former being
1877 and Of the latter 1878. From the 1st Sep
tember, 1866, to the same date 1867, the aver
age number Of rations issued per month was
S49, ,7642.
The amount of supplies furnished was $780,
1888 pounds of pork and bacon, and 6,sO9, ,2s6
pounds OF corn, the number OF rations issued
having been 692,548 to refugees, and S,504, ,629
to freedmen. The report speaks hopefully Of
the progress Of education among the colored
people, which has been at an expense during
the year Of 1920, 1893. 1t concludes with the
following recommendations:
/. To discontinue the relief afforded by the
Freedmen's Bureau, if possible, when the term
Of the bureau shall expire by law, except in the
educational work, and in the settlement Of suoh
CLAIMS for back pay and bounty to colored sol
diers as may remain at that time unsettled.
q. To transfer the educational work of the
bureau to the department Of education, or to
some other permanent United States agency,
which shall have ample power to sustain and
extend the present system, and also the trans
fer to such agency OF all bureau funds une1-
pended next July.
8. To at once transfer the buildings erected
for schools for refugees and freedmen upon
land purchased by regularly incorporated in
situations Of learning, to the several corporate
bodies having these institutions in charge,
upon condition that they shall continue the
work Of education therein, and never exclude
any person on account of race or color.
