TRUE EPISCOPACY.
EuelIinH TeLegraph.

TO the Editor of The EUe,iing Telegraph
"Rpiscopacy set forth by the Apostles of
Christ, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit of
Truth is to be acknowledged the Ordinance of
God"
Such is the title of IA sermon preached by the
Rev. Daniel Washbum before the Schuylkill
and Lehish Convocation, and published at their
request. The subject does not admit of much
novelty of treatment. The truth of the propo-
sition can be demonstrated only by proof drawn
out of "Holy Scripture and ancient authors" !"
We do not remember to have seen more
concise and lucid collation. and use of the
principal testimonies that bear on this question.
While the sermon is thoroughly outspOken on
what the reverend author believes (and proves
it too) to have been the primitive structure of
the Church of Christ, it is truly charitable and
catholic in its spirit towards those who have de-
parted from the Apostles fellowship. The con-
clusiOn of the discourse it is easier for believers
in ministerial purity to scoff at than 1t is to re-
fute

AUTOBIOGRAPHY AND PERSONAL RECOLLECTIoNs
OF JOHN b. GOUGH. Published by H. G.
johnson Sold by subscription only.
Mr. Cough is a born orator, and he is con-
sequently one of the most popular lecturers
now before the public. He has the rare
faculty OF securing the sympathies and atten-
tion of his audience, and of holding them
spell-bound by his manner rather than by his
matter. Mr. Coughs discourses are often
extremely trivial in subject when they come
to be read by the sober light of criticism and
when away from the fascination of his pre-
sence. They are made up'of well-used mate
rials, and display but little originality in style
or arrangement When he is speaking how
ever, all this is forgotten, and the public lis
tens to the often-told anecdotes and jokes
with as much zest as if they were bran-new
coinages of the lecturers brain. As might
be expected the autobiography of Mr. Cough
loses much of the fascination of his spoken
efforts. and the actual events of his life
are not in themselves sufficiently interesting
or important to fill up the bulky volume OF
552 pages before us. The book is, therefore
largely composed of padding, which, however
will be no objection to the majority of readers
into whose hands it will fall. Mr.. Gougt
tells the story of his life in q straightforward
manner, and he tells it well. He makes nj
great pretensions TO literary style, and that il
well also. The book is one that will be reat
with interest by many who are anxious t.
know what the great temperance orator ha'

The Pail Mall Gazette says: 1--WE
have heard lately almost too much about

skeletons coevsl with the mammoths and
undeniably appertaining to the earliest

OF such unusual interest that the French
Government have sent M. Lartet, the

report on the subject He reports that
the bones of five skeletons have been dis
covered, and that they belong to some
gigantic race, whose limbs, both in size
and form must have resemhied those OF
the gorilla. But the simisn organ OF
man must not be inferred from these az,
alogies, ss the skulls, of which only three
are perfect, afford testimony fatal TO this
theory, having evidently contained very
voluminous brains, The skulls are now

The Texas Tragedy-ParticuIa OF
the Murder of DIR. Maxwell.
From the Bryan Newsletter. 3d..

From the Bryan NeWeiotlcTs oltl
The killing of DR.. Maxwell at Calvert
has created a profound sensation in our
community. We give plain statement
of the facts as related to us, and which
we have every reason to believe is cor
rect. On the morning of the 9th inst
about thirty men, headed by DIR. Ham
mond aud Ben. Brown, rode into Calvert
and balted in the street, the majority Of
them leisnrely dismounting and holding
their horses by the reins. DIR. Maxwell,
who was at the extreme end of the town,
was notified of their presence, the object
of their visit to kill him, and warned to
leave town Immediately. DIR. Maxwell
remarked that be never run from danger
aud that he would not attempt TO evade
them. He then mounted his horse and
rode deliberately and slowly down the
street, passing Immediately BY this crowd
of armed men. When be had passed
them q few PAGES the crowd began to
mount, shouting, Kill him, kill himl ="
Maxwell spurred his horse into q gallon
and turned down into cross sgFeet, and,
having very feet horse, those who saw
him supposed that be would make his
escape. 1t seems, however, that he had
no desire TO get away, aud as soon as the
crowd reached the cross street. thar com
meneed firing. Maxwell fell Immediately
from his horse, vkereupoa the blood
thirsty men rushed on his prosirste body,
piercing il with balls and cutting II with
knives. His body was completely rid

them as they stand in need of assistance
is rendered at the Custom House, then
baggage is brough. off free in the COM
pany wagons, and in short, everything
that these companies can do is promptly
and efficiently done to render the very
assistance which is most needed. The
whole thing ia highly creditabIe, and is
without doubt the most thoroughly organ
lied system Of extending aid to immi-
grants now existing in the Union.
The companies obtain employment fer
their members. From this fact they have
been charged with dealing in coolies.
The charge is wholly false. No member
of the company is obliged to accept a
place found for him if he does not desire
TO do so, though he must trust the COM
panies implicitly, and for the good reason
that he can find no better friends.
Thousands who come are brought
by the compaBy-fund through previous
arrangement made by the emigrants with
the agents in China. For the repayment
of this they give their word. Their first
anxiety is to replace this sum. The
company keeps record Of the amount,
of the place where the emigrant is en-
ployed, and makes special agreement
with each as to the rate of repayments.
The company has no hold upon the la
borer whatever, except bis promise, and
does not assume control of him to any
extent. But John is honest and prompt
to pay, and grateful besides for the help
extended. s81l
These companies take entire charge
of all paupers and no Chinaman has as
yet become q charge upon the State.
1t is very easy to see what such help
and encourag ement will lead to in in
increasing the new immigration. I'D

Such proportion may easily be changed
by the Suez Canal, and ifit will not be so
soon changed in favor of Russia, it is, at
sll events, sure to be changed in favor OF
Germany and Austria. In the matter OF
cotton manufactures none of these coun-
tries can compete with England; but
both of these can fairly compete in com
mon woollen manufactures, in common
cloth, in cheap cutlery and cheap leather
goods. German cutlery has lost it's
credit 10 England and France. but it will
find market in China and japan. As
to the other productions above named,
there can be no doubt that they will be
welcomed in Asia, since they find q
ready market in England itself. 9-
Russia can at this moment furnish for
the China trade chiefly two productions
raw wool and corn-neither of which are
of value for the remote markets; but we
have no guarantee whatever that in few
years large factories will not be estab-
lished to convert the wool into tissues,
and steam mills to convert the corn into
-four, both of which will find sale in East
ern Asia. II this has not been done
hitherto, it is probably owing to the fact
that these tissues would not find q mar
ket in Europe, and that corn is readily
bought unground. In the south of Rus
sia the whole trade is in the hands, not of
the lazy Russians, but of sharp Jews and
Greeks, who, in the prospect of the China
and Japan markets, will easily under
stand the advantage of converting corn
into the lighter form of -four, and wool
into tissues. As to the workers for the
new woolen manufactures, they may be
found in Germany, if not in Russia itself.
1t may be said that all these changes
will require a large amount of capital (;
but among the Jews and Gree ks in Rus
sia there is plenty of money; and, be-
sides, it is well known that wherever
good profit is to be expected capital is
always to be found readily enough.
The opinion prevalent in England that
Russia has no fleet in the Black Sea is
exaggerated. Shortly after the Crimean
war large steam company was essab-
lished and literally supported by the gov
ernment. The steamers of this company
may be seen at London as well as at
Marseilles. Moreover, there are plenty
of Greek, italian and Austrian ships in
the Black Sea. But our present aim is
not so much to point out what the Suez
Canal may do for Russia, as to point out
what it is likely to do for Germany and
Austria-as we fear at the expense of

the deed which had been done, and were

threatened their lives, and had tried to
hire men, with money, to kill them, and
that such wac their reason for killing
him.
We are reliably informed that DR..
Maxwell was most excellent gentleman
and good citizen. During the war he was
surgeon of the Sixth Louisiana Regi-

and stood in the highest estimation Of all
who knew him. He was formerly from

him are men and women, every one an
abolitionist, and every one teaching me-
groes to read and write and cypher, to
read Greek and Latin, and explaining to
them human philosophy and the Word of
God. But further than this, not only are
negroes taught, but they are taught in the
same classes with the white people.
Black boys and girls sit together in the
school room, eat together at the table,
recite together from the same recitation
bench, and meet together, each to per
form their part on exhibition day from
the same platform. Aud the audience
which listens to them is mixed audience
of the parents and friends Of the white

black boy reads Cicero and Virgil with
the white one, and the black debates in
public with the white one the high ques-
tons that bother the youthful mind.
