most significant movement was begun at
1.-THE Emmanuel Episcopal church. in Fifty
!seventh street yesterday, the movement being
nothing less than the Inauguration of an Epis-
.copal church independently of the authority
of Bishop Potter. 1t is an outgrowth of the
Cheney controversy, but it was undertaken
with the idea of separation from the Episcopal
Church, since the Book of Common Prayer
was not rearranged in harmony with the
spirit of the age and according to the ideas of
the Rev. Mr.. Thrall's congregation. The
t|'Union Prayer Book" will be used hereafter
in this church, and it's friends believe that in
khis book they have platform on which all
Christians could unite in offering up their
worship. But we fear this is another schism
which will not fulfil any such expecta-
tions if they are seriously held by the congre-
cation of Emmanuel's church. 1t is, however,
o most important movement, as showing that
the great breach in the Protestant Episcopal
Church cannot be much longer deferred.

Rich WITHOUT MoNEY.-Many man is
rich without money. Thousands Of men
with nothing in the pocket, and thousands
without even pocket, are rich. A man
born with good sound constitution, good
stomach, good heart and good limbs, and
pretty good head piece, is rich. Good
bones are better than gold; tough muscles,
than silver; and nerves that flash fire and
carry energy to every function, are better
than houses or lands.
1t is better than landed estate to have had
the right kind of father and mother. Good
breeds and bad breeds exist among men as
really as among herds and horses. Lduca-
ton may do much to check evil tendencies,
or to develop good ones; but it is great
thing to inherit the right proportion of tacul-
ties to start with.
The man is rich who has good disposi-
tion-who is naturally kind, patient, cheer
full, hopeful; and who has flavor Of wit and
fun in his composition. The hardest thing
to get along with in this life, is a mans own
self. A cross, selfish fellow, a desponding
and complaining fellow-a timid, care-b burd-
ened man-these are all born deformed on
the inside. Their feet may not limp, but
their thoughts do.

THE FIRE F1END-A Thrilling DeScrip-
hon-The fire tornado which swept over
Peshtego, in northern Wisconsin, was heard
at distance like the roaring of the sea-
Balls Of fire were soon observed to fall like
meteors in different parts of the town, ignit-
ing whatever they touched. People rushed
with their children in their arms for place
of safety, but the storm of fire was upon
them and enveloped them in flames, smoke,
burning sand and sinders, and those who
were not able to reach the river were sufo-
Gated and roasted alive. This terrible scene
happened on Sunday night, the Sth of Octo-
Der, already made famous by the Chicago
horror A member of the Relief Committee,
sent from Milwaukee with supplies, says the
only survivors were those who were fortu-
nate enough to reach water, many of them
throwing themselves into mil-pond and
clinging to floating logs. A number of these
were drowned by being thrown from the logs
by maddened horses and cattle that rushed
into the,yater. The fiery cyclone swept over
a tract of country eight or ten miles wide.
Every building, fence, and all the timber
were licked up clean by the tongue Of fire.

WILL You NEVER 90 TO SLEEP. The San
Francisco NeacS Letter gets off the following
good one:
Returning home late the other night,
gentleman living en- Mission street disrobed
without lighting the gas, and lay peacefully
down beside the partner Of his joys. Sinking
back upon the pillow, he strai8htway raised
himself up again and remarked:
g i say, wife, Low's your pillow? warm?'
Why, what foolish question" returned
she, my pillow is all right.
" Is it REAL wagm p he asked.
Certainly il Isl I've had my head on it for-
three hours.
Apparently sat'sGcd, he laid down and

had another idea.

Another half hour passed in silence, broken
only by the solemn ticking Of the clock III

MORMON WoMEN.-T. Dewitt Talmadge
says: Nothing impressed us more in Salt
Lake City than the LONELINESS of the women.
1t may be ungalart to mention it, but as
everyone that goes there thinks it, here goes
the statement of the fact Now, homeliness
of features is not always a disadvantage.
There is a handsome ugliness and a pious
LONELINESS; but with these Mormon women it
is a vicious, outrageous uncomeiness, indi-
cative of moral Disagreement. The Taber-
nacle was alive with them. They made us
shudder. 1t is "assault and battery" to
have them look at you. What Brigham Or
any other man would want of seventeen such
looking creatures | cannot imagine. One of
them should think would be a great horror.
Such dislocation of noses and misplacements
of mouths, and ruins of eyebrows, are not
gathered together in any other place on this
continent There must be great many
ac1ches among them. We would not have
been much surprised to see them riding home
on broomstick. The only excuse we see
for polygamy is that it would take at least
fifty such women to make one wife"

IT'S "OH, FOR A QUIET SPOT"
BY DANIEL II. HITLER.

It's &" Oh, for quiet spot,
A place where the waters sleep,
A little farm in sheltered vale,
A home in the forest deep.
A dog for tho woodland game,
A dollar to spend or to keep,
A black, q brown, and a brind'e COW,
A horse, and flock of sheep.
A duck and guinea pig,
A goose and gander too,
A turkey proud--the poultry king,
And a pair of doves TO coo.
: A pig and yoke of steers,
cat and a bird to crow,
A place for the comfort of them,
And a place for the rake and hoe.
An axe for the lordly tree,
A plow for the stubborn soil,
a faith in the promise of good,
A strength and will to toll.
A kind and a gentle wife,
A little girl and a boy
Oh, what can equal in life
The farmers tire-side joy?
What a source Of pleasure to him
His fathers rarely knew
"The paper" ready for use
And that paper paid FOR" too.
It's ooh, for quiet spot"
A place where the waters sleep,
A little farm in sheltered vale,
A home in the forest deep.

A THRILLING HoRRoR. The most thrilling
horror we have ever heard of is that of the
aronaut in Indiana, who was about making
an ascension, when the cords that held the
balloon to the earth broke and he was carried
up clinging to the ropes below the basket.
At the length of a mile, where he looked to
the people below, among whom were his
wife and child, as a mere speck in the firma-
ment, he let go his hold and fell, turning
over and over as he fell, emerging from the
distance, until he struck the earth, and was
crushed into an ndistinguishable mass. His
Lody rebounded four feet from where he
struck. The horror of such a desperate
struggling to get into the basket and its few
minutes of headlong fight through the air,
has never been exceeded in fiction or fact

Found AT LAsr-Some German navigator
claims to have found the north pole and an

This polar sea is the mouth of the Atlantic

A LITTLE BIT OF ExpERIENcE. John
Taylor (colored), who was delegate to the
New York Republican State Convention at
Syracuse, publishes a card in the New York

been presented with ticket for meals and
lodgings at the Globe Hotel, the head-qqar,,

against Greeley and Fenton. lie went to
the hotel, and-well, we will Let him tell his
own story:
"After waiting two hours for my bed +,
expecting of course to be treated as the other
gentlemen, was placed in a side room, and
tea was served TO me. | told them that it
was midnight wished my room, and was
compelled to wait until one o'clock before
could find place to lie down. The clerk,
OH my asking him for a room, told me he
could not accommodate me before others
meaning white gentlemen. also found a
colored alternate on the other side compelled
to eat in the negro quarter, though charged
full fare. ! could not consent to such treat
ment, especially from those men who would
make me and other coorcd men believe that
they were honest and true Republicans. The
three meals were paid for. and went to the
