church Organization.

Churches are in some things good
deal like some other Institutions, composed
of human beings. There are things TO be
done, people to do them, and pooplc to
take charge of doing them. And, as in
politics, it is very commonly the case that
there is an official organization to stand
up and leok well, and by the side of 1t, or
mingled with it, informal powers that do
great part OF what is to be done.
In church, there is the regular course
of obligatory religious observance proper,
and there is also semi-offical and semi
temporal series closely parallel with this;
and there is, besides these, in large
cities particularly,-what may be called
the optional or volunteer course. The
stated preaching of the gospelr is the reg
ular course. Along with it, it is true,
goes the worship of God, lich Protest
aats have been So good as to admit to a
place in their religious rites only inferior
to that occupied by the sermon. And the
Sunday school belongs to this series. The
semi-oficial and semi-temporal series in.
clue es the busioess-meetiugs of the church,
the weekday prayer-meeting, the teachers
meeting, the rehearsal by tho choir, aud
the like. And the optional or volunteer
course includes any charity schools, sew

MEMORIAL DAY-The following is an
extract from the general order issued by
Gen. Burnside, Commander-in Chief Of
the Grand Army of the Republic, in ref
ercnce to the observance Of Memorial Day:
ln making arrangements for the observ.
ancc of next Memorial Day, departments
and posts are recommended TO take such
action as will secure the cooperation of
clergy OF the country, in giving greater
effect to the exercises of the day, by
preaching sermon appropriate to the oc.
casion, on the Sabbath preceding. 1t is
thought that this can best be accomplished
by the appointment of committees of in
fuentlal comrades from each post, to wait
upon the clergy in its own vicinity, and
point out to them the opportunity offered
for inculcating most impressive lesson of
devotion and fidelity to the cause of civil
and religious liberty.

RoBBING THE Mails For months past
the popular and reliable publishers Messrs.
Hunter & Co., of Hinsdale, N. IT,, have
been annoyed and dismayed at the i'm.
mense losses Of valuable letters which
were daily occurring. Aided by the
chief Detective and two special P. O.
Agents, they had at last the satisfaction
of seeing the thicf-a night clerk in the
Boston p o." behind the bars" and
he has confessed all. Messrs. Ii. & Co.'S
losses have been enormous; in fact no ex-
act estimate can at present be made,
The thief carefully examined aided by a
light, every letter and took epery one
that contained money. He was CAUGHT IN
the act and arrested, and if he gets his
dues will board with the State for from
FIVE to ten years. Meanwhile the pros
porous business Of Hunter K Co. goes on
with its usual energy, prOmptness and care,
and those who have lost money by mail
will now see just ,0here IL went, and avoid
giving the blame to honest persons.

April 18th, 1873.
Ma. EDITOR My philosOphic Bran
don correspondent writes me as follows:-
"lf it is riches you seek, stay West; but,
il it is refined and cultured society you
seek, by all means come East" Now
wish be would just come out aud see for
himself. All in all, i think the society
in Illinois will compare favOrably with
that in Vermont. Each is doubtless supe-
rior in some things.
The East looks at tho West as a land
oil backwoodsmen and buffaloes, chifely
interesting as the place where brothers
aud frieSds have gone, to build up houses
in the wilderness, and make money by a
sacrifice of the ordinary comforts and
common courtisics of life. The West,
on the other hand, looks at the East as
land of rocks and hills; where a few old
folks, Who can't get away, are oblidged to
stay. but. from which everybody, who is
anybody, is emigrnting as fast as possible.
Ii reminds me of two ministers | knew in
a Vermont town. A. looked down upon
Is. as young upstart, and b. looked
down upon A. as an old fogy. To be
sure, people in the East are, if you can
only get at it, immensely proud of the
West, as the land where her boys and
girls have gone and so almost every
body hero has hone-like feeling for
back East, as the place where the old
folks are.
Illinois is six times as large as Yer
mont, and has eight times as many inhab.
itan's; and everything is dsne on cor
respondingly large scale. | heard ore
man ask auolher the other day, "How
much corn are you going to put in ?"
80, not much, only about 32 or 33
acres" Though so much corn is raised,
and it Is worth new out 20 to % cts
bushel, yet but little is eaten The eata-
be article of food is wheat. Business is
much more brisk. People earn more mon
ey, and they spend more too.
If any one wants to teach school, and
make a business Of it for year or more.
there is good chance for him out here.
This is just the time to engage a school
for next year.
The Western fever is not confined to
New England, | find a great many people
here, who like some Of my friends in La
mOlle, are going to California.
| like the West,-like those wide, wide
praries, but, | ,aH't say l like the mud
And for the beautiful, give me my own
Vermont. Though this is a wonderful
Vest indeed. there is nothing here for
natural scenery that can at all compare
with the "Grsen Mountain State An
hour on Mansfield Mountain, or on Moss
Glen Falls, is worth month on the pra-
ries.
| like the West, but my thoughts go
back to the dear friends at home, and
thinking, sat down to write. So you

constitution, and called by public proclamation

whose duty it is, by the constitution, in such a
case as this, to nominate and elect a sovereign.
IL is said that the choice of the legislative assem-
bly,, which meets to-day, may fall upon Prince
Lunalilo, Mrs. Bishop, (whO is the highest
chiefess OF the Islands, and known to her people
as Bernice,) or some other high chief. Mrs
Bishop is well known to many residents of New

There is no doubt about that. But when or how
the transfer OF that desirable piece of property
will be made to the United States we do not ven

" nastens the event, for it leaves the island
without any person of native origin wholly com

Sandwich Islanders will fan rest more and
more on the opinion OF their American conn

Justice is the brilliantS e. Phillips formerly OF
