CHANGES AT ALL SAINTS CHURcH.-All
Saints church, Episcopal, is undergoing changes
in the interior that will improve it in several
respects The chancel accommodations have
been too small ever since the church was en-
larged a few years ago, and by the change now
going forward sixteen feet in width and eight
in depth will be added, so that the choirs may
be brought within the chancel; whereas they
were too far apart before. The general architec-
tural effect will also be bettered, and all the
room contained in the church lot will be
utilized. The work is in the hands OF NOrcross
Bros, builders; the cost will probably reach
four thousand dollars.
While it is in progress the regular services
will be held as usual. The chance end of the
room will be cut off by means of screen, in
front of which the desk will be moved for the
while. The organ, the position of which is to
be changed, has been taken down and lies in the
chapel; the boy choirs have been given vaca-
ton for the season; and the music meanwhile
will be voluntarily furnished.

West Virginia must pay her portion of it;
and one of my objections to the odious

(Which should never have been passed,)
is that the State of Virginia should not
have changed the form of our indebted
ness nnti this matter was settled.
AS we cannot get rid of the State

be done would be to delay the levying Of

Ml,rohee, October Is Later accounts
from Northern Wisconsin confirm all
previous reports and rumors. The loss
of life in the neighborhoods of Pish tego

OF the injure cannot recover. A member
of the Relief Committee. sent from M il
waulee with supplies, says the only sur
vivers were those VINO were fortunate
enough to reach water, many throwing
themselves in the mill pond and cling ing
to floating logs.
A number of these were drowned, be-
ing thrown from the logs by maddened
horses and cattle that rushed into the
water. The fire swept over a tract of
country eighto or ten miles wide. Every
building. fence and all the timber were
destroyed. The popu lation of Plshtego
numbered 1900, third Of whom per-

Reports from the east shore of Green
Bay place the loss Of life full as high as
at Pishtego. The same accounts state
that the Immediate wants of the people
are supplied, but large amounts of prov
isions and clothing will be required for
the coming winter. The mayor OF Mil
