Interesting essay on an american View of the

Church, Newark. The reverend essayist took
strong ground In favor OF the introduction in
America OF the English cathedral system, claiming

finished class OF preachers, q more cultivated and
beautiful style OF music, and In many other ways

Sad Calamity in Hayti-Mission Build
ings in Ashes.American Philanthro-
pists to the Rescue.
A fire was discovered under full neadway near
Midnight Of June g. 1873, in Port au Prince in the
vicinity Of the edfces belonging to the American
Protestant Mission in that place, which soon CON-
lngs, and in one short hour the church, pastoral
residence and schoolhouse were all reduced to
heap OF ashes. And thus the Christian Mberaity OF
the religious denomination In the states that had
conferred this boon upon the Haytian Republic was
suddenly lost 10 this community. But let 1t not be
supposed that the solid advantages OF this establish
ment were by any means confined to mere sec
tartan influence or that its benefits were simply Of
local nature The Protestant Episcopal Mission,
established at Port Prince in 1861, was the first
In that series Of steps that marked the change in
the sentiments of the American people and in the
policy OF the government OF the United States
toward the African race in this hemisphere, which

the independence OF Hayti was recognized by the
American Congress, and the first diplomatic agent
accredited by the United States to Hayti was
named In 1866 the treaty OF friendship, commerce,
&C., was concluded, ratified and exchanged be-

ment of q diplomatic representative of partial
African descent to represent the American people
near the Haytian government. Each one OF these
political agents Of the American government who
has fulfilled diplomatic functions In nayti since
1862, some four In number, have found congeniai
sively gwen to 1t their aid, countenance and pro-
