THE Maryland Diocesan Convention
of the P. E. Church, now in session in
Baltimore, has repealed the canon OF
Lay Discipline, formerly known as the
Canon xviii, forbidding theatrical exhi-
billions and other light and vain amuse-
ments. This action has met with the
strong disapprobation of the venerable
Bishop of Maryland (Whittingham) !,
who, physically unable to preside in the
Convention, has filed protest against
the repeal, in which he says: The cur
rent of the times and the movement in
the population Of the country impera-
lively require Of faithful branch Of the
Church of Christ increased strigency,
and not timid relaxation in the an
nouncement and enforcement Of the rules
of holy living, self-denial, and non-con-
formity to the world" Bishop Whit
tingham docs not, however, content him
self with this formal protest. He de-
elares that he shall not consider himself
bound by the action Of the Convention,
and that he shall regard his own right
in the canon to be unaffected and con-
slider it to be, SO far as concerns himself
and his official action, of no force and
validity

The Houston Telegraph, in discussing
the cotton and corn crops Of Texas, says
that the heavy and long continued rains
throughout the State have caused seri-
Gus apprehensions for the cotton crops
in some sections. If the rains con
sinue there can be no doubt that this
crop will suffer materially, and we are
disposed to credit the announcements
that irreparable damage has already
been done. Fran present indications
the cotton crop Of Texas will fall far
short Of last year But the partial dis
aster will be remedied in a great meas
IRE by the very large corn crop which
will be made. This crop is now beyond
the chances Of drouih, and promises q
very heavy yield.

Rear Admiral g. H. Scott, commanding the North
Atlantic station, informs the Navy Department.
that Commander w. B. Cushing, OF the Wyoming,
under date Of October I, reports that he had been
at Aspinwal or two weeks, and that the arrival OF
his vessel had caused much qualification to railroad
agents and American residents, as revolution had
just commenced at Panama. The native authori-
ties OF Asplnwall, having been called on to furnish
force to protect the railroad, acknowl-
edged their inability to do so, and Com
mander Cushing held his men in readiness
to land In case any attempt was made
to injure 1t. Up TO the date OF his communication
he had not been called upon to act. The moral
e1ect OF the ships presence seems TO have been
enough. There has been no case OF fever on board
and there are only three men on the binnacle list
He reports sending assistance to an English coast
ing steamer that had been on reef close to the
lighthouse. The vessel was finally gotten OF un-
injured.

CRIME ON UNION HILL
Prominent Physician at the Point o
Death-Was lie Murdercds

The people OF Union Hin, n. j., have been in
tensely discounted during the past week over a
rumor that Dr. DE Gror, prominent physician
residing among them, had been shot by well
known individual named Columbus. What
adds to the agitation IL that the doc
tors friends stoutly deny the shooting, and
avow that he had been Ill prior to the
reported occurrence and Is still suffering from
Inflammation OF the lungs. A lew years ago De
Gron was Columbus family physician, and during
the doctors visits IL Is said that improper In
timacy arose between him and Mrs. Columbus.
The husband irritated at this, moved TO New York.
and Mrs. Columbus with her two daughters, moved
10 the residence OF De Gron, and have lived with
him ever since On Monday evening last Colurn-
bus crossed the ferry rom New YORK, and pre-
sented himself at the Doctors door. The owner
OF the house drove him away with much
difhculty Columbus threatened 10 murder De
GrOn. Whether he did FIRE at him or not remains
a mystery but rumor has IL that he did. Since
then De Gron has been so Ill that no person Is
allowed to visit MIN. There are further disgusting
reports concerning the friendship alleged 70 exist
between the doctor and the daughters, but nothing
definite can be ascertained The Doctors friends
declare the whole story alse; but the extensive
ruInors In regard 10 IL would seem TO warrant an
Official investigation. De Gr0n was delirious and
In danger at late hour last evening.
