Religious Personal.

Il :s announced that Rev. George Il.
Hepworth is to pass the month of July at
the lie of Shoals with an elegant yacht at
his disposal, and the inquiry is ironically
made. what is to become of the souls under
his charge while he is yachtingl These
souls will not be likely TO suffer much by
his absence. and 1t is not probable he will
be much concerned about them. His own
personal welfare is about the only thing
the reverend George cares for. He gathered
flock of souls together in Boston, but
went to New York to get a larger salary
as quick as he could. To do tins decently
was puzzle for some time, but after
wrestling with the question in the most ap-
proved Chadband style, he hit on the
proper way-he changed his religion, This
flank movement gave him new flock, the
novelty increased his congregation, built
him new church and gave him yacht.

LONDON. july l4.-In the Chamber of
Peers, this evening, Lord Oranmere read
the archbishop's reply to the Church asso-
ciation, showing a tendency IN the Church
of England toward Catholicism, and moved
that a committee be appointed to consider
what legislation is needed to check the evil.
He supported the motion in a long speech.
in the course Of which he read passages
from petition of 483 clergymen Of the es-
tablishel church asking for the appoint.
ment Of coniessors and the restoration OF
other popish practices. He wanted to know
why it was that clergymen holding such
doctrines retained their positions in the
church.
The Archbishop of Canterbury said the
noble lord had stated the'question fairly,
and it was no wonder that popular feeling
was working upon this subject. There was
good cause for alarm. The power OF bishops
to remedy the abuses should be increased
The Bishop of Salisbury declared the pO.

The confessional was contrary to bis feel
ings; that the attempt to introduce 1t would
be only considered wild and visionary. The
4S3 clergymen who signed the petition con
stituted only one-haK OF the clerical body
of the church.
The Archbishop of York expressed the
opinion that whatever was done in this
matter should come from the church. no,
from the legislature. He, therefore, wal
opposed to the motion. but he declared he
would make every exe1tion to prevent the
prayer book from becoming Romanized.
The motion was then negatived, and
their lordships rose. :,

HALIFAX, July 1.-THE steamer Mastaw

steerage passengers who had been left be-

Captain Phillips with the officers, and

remainder go to England tomorrow. The
official inquiry commenced this morning at
nine o'clock
There is nothing new TO report from the
wreck. Il lies in the same position. Cap

A sweeping charge made by Colonel Par

| the captain, officers and crew, accusing
| them Of mismanagement and incompetency
| both before and after the disaster. caused
no little astonishment, :nasmuch as he had
| signed testimonial to the opposite to what
| he published. Captain j. II. Hammond,
also cabin passenger, pronounces the
statement of Parnall devoid Of truth. The
| captain in command. he says. was thor
oughly disciplined and kept good watch
during the entire voyage. Captain Ham
mond is competent to speak. as he never
| left the deck any night before twelve or
one O'Clock. "There were,' says he. "al'

there was lack Of discipline, cursing and

after the passengers landed the captain
! contradicts. The ships officers did all that
could be done under the circumstance !ol

Care of Cows in Autumn.

An enterprising farmer of Western New

and feeding stock successfully is, to keep
what you get-to save every pound ol
flesh and fat that is produced. The ques,
ton lying still back of that is, how shall
the flesh and fat be retained? What TO 90
and how to do it is the question. Hun

dicular precipice, nearly four miles in
sheer depth, yawned on our rlght, anu on
our left was a snow slope so steep that a
single slip must of necessity prove fatal.
Fortunately, none of the party did slip;
and at last, to our great relief, we got
to the end of the %arrete, and found
ourselves on a comparatively smooth
plateau of frozen snow. We pushed
O n rapidly. till we came to an ice
wall, directly barring our way, n so
perpendicular that we could not entertain
the thought of cutting u way up it.
Under this we halted for the night, though
beginning to feel very much the effects of
he rare atmosphere and the intense cold.
None of us were able to close an eye that
night, and at earliest dawn | got the ap-
paratus ready for filling the balloon. In
a couple of hours all was prepared; and
as the little car would only hold one, l
volunteered to be the first to try it. A
long rope was attached to the car, which
the others let out as | assembled. AS
O as the top of the ice-wall was reach
ed, l got out and fastened the rope secure
" to a huge block of ice, and the others,
without difficulty, pulled themselves up.
We left the rope there to assist our des-
cent, and pressed on to the summit. We
were now on a small level plateau, from
the center OF which rose a cone. This,
we could see at a glance, must be the top.
1t was with great difficulty that we could
breathe, but the excitement made US for
get everything. The three of us together
rushed up to the cone, and in another mo-
ment 4 frantic shout-frantic though weak
and quavering-annOunced that we had
attained to the summit of Mount Everest
that we stood on the highest spot in the
world. | cannot describe to you the &c
stasy of the monochrome than repaying
the long months of preparation, and toll,
and WEAKNESS which we had gone through.
And above all came the thought that now
at length my honor was secured-that
there was no danger Of the American ever
rivaling the feat of to-day.
"But soon came other and nobler
thoughts. How wonderful it is to con-
sider,' | s~oliloquized, that this snow has
never been trOdden by the foot of man
that never, during the thousands of years
which have rolled over the world since
the time of the flood, has the eternal
stiffness of the mountain-top been broken
by aught save the bowling Of the blast
",'That's a very fine idea of yours about
