exhaustion at his residence in Burlington. At the
New Brunswick Convocation, held at Plainfield on
Wednesday, preamble and resolution offered by
Rev. q. M. Parkman referring To the illness, aud
respectfully asking the Bishop Ito take such entire
rest from his episcopal lab0rs and for such length
OF time as may seem best 10 him." were unani-
mOusly passed. The reverend gentleman has
long been urged by his solicitous clergy

ating season. but thus far the Bishop has
resisted. Nothing but the deepest socitude for
his clergy to permit much less desire, the Bishops
absence even for brief season. so devotedly
attached are his ministers and his people to him.
This prOstration OF the Bishop, who ordinarily is a
man OF fine physique and powerful constitution, Is
a clinching argument IN favor OF the proposed
division OF the diocese into two bsh0prics.
