bishop Quintard.

Speaking of this devout Bishop and emil
nent divine during his recent ministerial
visitation to Chattanooga, the Times of
that city has the following:
St. Paul's Episcopal Church was crowded
on Sunday, both at the morning and eve
ming services, in consequence of the an
nouncement that Bishop Quintard would
preach. The congregation expected great
things, and they we're not disappointed.
The Bishops sermon in the morning
was upon the importance of fighting the
good fight of faith, and upon the necessity
of the church as a means of grace. In the
evening his sermon was upon the scrip
tural authority of the apostolic rite of con-
frmation as means of grace. His text
was whatsoever shall confess me before
men, the same will 1 confess before my
Father which is in Heaven" And his ear
nest appeal to the congregation upon the
vital Importance of confession of the
faith, will not soon be forgotten by his
hearers. At the close of the sermon, nine
persons were confirmed.
Monday morning at half past 10 o'clock
divine service was had in the church, after
which the Bishop gave lecture upon the
English Church. He spoke of worship
ing in St. Martins Church at Canterbury,
which was built by the British Christians
in the second century, and showed how the
apostolic succession in the English Church
was traced back to the age of the Apostles.
He spoke particularly of the manner in
which the spirit Of the church permeated
all classes of society, and as an illustration
mentioned the fact that at one time when
he and an English Bishop were at a certain
nobleman's house, the master of the house
led in family prayers, considering that his
own duty as head of the house.
All of his sermons were very interesting
aud impressive, and we almost envy the
Church of the Advent in Nashville which
enjoys his ministrations all the time.

MEETING OF THE HoRTICULTU.
RAJ SOCIETY.



The members of the horticultural So
ciety had meeting at their rooms in the
Porter Block yesterday afternoon, which,
In view OF the near approach of the spring
exhibition, or fair, posse ssed unusual inter-
est. Though the weather was excessively
bad, the rain pouring in torrents, goodly
number OF the members were present.
which shows the zeal and earnestness upon
which they have entered into the work be-
fore them. In fact, at no time in our city
has there been SO general, SO lively and
active an interest in horticulture and hori-
culture as Is as present infused. The en-
suing spring fair will be the completest
success ever achieved in that line in this
part of the country, and the collection and
display of rare flowers, plants, early fruits,
etc., will be one of the finest and most at
tractive to be found anywhere. The mana
gers and those interested have gone into
the matter with determination to succeed.
and they are composed of men who accom-
plish successfully what they undertake.
The time for the holding of the Spring
horticultural Fair, was fixed by the mem
bers yesterday for Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday the 18th, 10Th and 10th of Nav.
a time than which none more suitable or
appropriate could have been selected. It
was decided that the price of membership
tickets should be fixed at 81, admitting
the member only.
On motion it was agreed that one day of
the fair should be designated on which all
the children of the Orphan Asylums should
be admitted free of charge.
1t was also agreed that the pupils of the
several schools of the city should he rer
mitted to attend at areduced fare of admis-
sion to be hereafter specified.
DIR. w. ID. Kline and Mr.. p. L. Nichol
were appointed committee to procure a
hall suitable for the holding of the fair.
D. W. Fl. Harris was appointed to prepare
schedule and provide for the printing OF
the same. After various remarks in furth-
erence of the interest and success of the
| forthcoming exhibition the society adjourn
ed to meet again on next Saturday,

4 BEnn sIaes and Probably killed
An exciting, bloody and almost, i not
quite. fatal tragedy occurred at Gardner
Station on the Nashville and Northwestern
Railrosd on Friday night. The particulars
as we learn them, are about these: Mr.
G. O. Nichol, who is freight conductor on
the road. was running the west-pound
freighe train. His orders are positive anu
explicit, that no passengers shall be per-
mitted on the freight. train AS the tram
was approaching Gardeners STATION
young man named Henry Cowardin, got
aboard and insisted that he would go Inc
station. The conductor demonstrated, but
in vain. Finally, telling Cowardin that
he could not depart from his instructions,
and that he would not be imposed upon
he, after some difficulty, put him OIL 1t
was not great way to the station where
the train stopped thirty minutes for sup
per- On reaching the station the tram
was stopped, and Mr.. Nichol went in to
his supper. Indignant at the effront, as
he felt it, CT being put off the train, Cowar-
din, as we are informed, with
number of friends, hurried to the station,
some of them being armed, for the purpose
ofavenging the insult. On reaching the sta
ton, they placed themselves neaI VIC NOOA-
way. An employee on the train learning
the state of the case, gave Mr.. Nichol warn
ing of his danger. Having no arms OF his
own, he borrowed the employees pistol to
be prepared for emergencies After he had
finished his supper be went outat the door,
when Cowardin stepped up to him and spat
in his face. At this, Michel grabbed him
and showed him back. Cowardin then drew
his pistol and fred, but missed his aim.
Nichol then instantly drew and fired, the
ball from his pistol hitting and penetrating
Cowardin's breast, inhicting dangerous
if not motal wound. Though severely
hurt, the wounded man picked up some
weights for another attack. Considerable
excitement now ensued, and it is stated
that one of Cowardin's party snapped a
shotgun at MIR. Nichol, who secured him

bishop McTyeire in Chattanooga
The Skating Rink,

Bishop McTyeire on his recent visit to
the Baltimore Conference, was delayed
day in Chattanooga by railroad acct
dent. In very interesting letter from
him, which we find in the Christian
AdUOcote of the 9th, giving an account
of his trip to Baltimore, he details in a
very pleasant manner how he spent the
day of detention at Chattanooga:
with the kind attentions of Brother
Mcmillan and family, and the very clever
gentlemen of the Burns House, l made out
a really pleasant day of detention. Mrs. G.
took me to the skating rink, and her
daughter gave us specimen of skating,
thirty feet above the level of an ice-pond.
Mr.. Editor, allow me to commend to you
and your readers the skating rink. 1t
can't should-substitute dancing as an
exercise and amusement for the young
people of both sexes. 1t furnishes
indoor, graceful, lively exercise, both
muscular and nervous excitement,
and leaves no excuse for dancing. I wish
there were skating rink in every village
and boarding-school. The lame and acct
dental associations, upon, its introduction
into this country, had prejudiced me against
it; but seeing is believing well of 1t. The
rink is a firm, smooth floor, in this instance
in the third story, and about sixty by 100
feet area. The skates in their wooden part
and buckling apparatus, are not unlike
those used on ice, and are fixed on four
rollers about an inch and half in diameter
Upon these the skaters move rapidly, and
perform graceful gyrations. The usual falls
pay the penalty of unskillfulness. l shonld
Judge it trife more difficult than on ice,
because q track is sunk into the surface of
the latter that steadies the foot. Bringing
up suddenly requires very nice balancing
and turning, in the rink"
