to the Churchmen of this Diocese and the
vicinity, whose daughters must go from

the religious influence exerted in it is

and with the teaching of the Prayer Book
and the Church.
There is sad apathy amongst our PEG.
pie in regard to the duty of sustaining
our institutions for education in the
church. And it is little surprising, con.
sidering that we are the only religious
body which is SO indifferent. The other
bodies are fully awake to the Importance
of sustaining their own schools, of having
them iberatly endowed and largely at.
tended. But Churchmen are toe
often careless of this interest. How
many of the youth of both sexes be-
longing to this Diocese are in attendance
on schools which are rivals of ours! Ii
appears to me that special effort should
be made to correct this indifference of our
people. Christian education and the in.
stituticns for carrying it on in the Church
are matters of vital interest to us. That
body which does the most to educate the
young, will have the most influence in
shaping the opinions of the coming age
I heartily endorse the suggestions in the
report on the canons of the Diocese, that
we should have among the standing COM
mittees Of the convention one on this sub.
ject of Christian education, whose reports
in the journals of convention might, ]
should hope, do much to awaken proper
interest in this subject.

Whittemore's Seccess.

Mr. j. H. Rainey, of South Carolina, the
negro who was selected by the radicals of
the first district of that state in Whittemores
plscs, has taken his seat in the house of
representatives.. His fellow republicans
found no loophoe for objection to him and
sacrificing him, as they did the Louisiana
negro last session. The little enthusiasm
which the radicals brought into play when
Revels was sworn in as senator from
Mississippi has been effectually oissipated,
and the appearance of q negro congress-
