Rev. W NJ Parry Of the Worcester,
Mass, Tabernacle church, was installed on
the 10th. The service was novel one.

hand Of fellowship and delivered the

life is gone. 1t seems hopclessly ruined.
One sees little but wastes in the country,

debts, debts" A nightmare broods over
the whole SOUTH and the people cannot
shake 1t off.

KEY. Mr. Murray has written very long
letter to the Park street church of Boston,
explaining why he asks an associate pastor
the reasons, briefly, being that the work
Is more than one man can possibly do, and
that the church Unjust secure an older and
wiser man than the present PASTOR" to rep
resent it in councils. "Tempcton" writes
the Hartford COurdRt that Mr. Murray will
come out ahead in his little controversy
WIN some OF his parishioners, but, if he
should leave, he will have a call fIom the
church OF the Unity-thc Unitarian church
over which Rev. George II Hepworth was
settled before he left that denomination.
DEPRECIATION IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.
Representative Kasson, of Iowa, in his
recent speech on the currency, gave a very
int resting statement, derived from the
treasury department, as to the deprecated
paper currencies of different countries at
the present time. Thus, it appears that the
discount in the United States is quoted
from 10 to 12 per cent in Austria at 10
per cent Greece, II per cent Italy, II
per cent Russia, 1G per cent Cuba, A |
per cent ; IIayti, 90 % per cent. The
Republic of Hayti has $500. 900. 900 of |
paper money. The value in the market is |
25O paper dollars for one coin dollar. In
San Domingo there is discount of from
~ 10 ~ per cent on the new paper money,
latest issue. OF two former issues. one
called Credit notes." is received bv the
government at the rate of thirty dollars to
one silver dollar; and another the "Treas-
ury notes, still earlier, is taken at the Off
cal rate of S40O to 81 silver. In the two
latter countries, 1t will be seen, there has
been what Mr. Kasson says 1t is proposed
10 nave IN this country, an issue Of diff
Ierent KINDS OF paper money. The whole
exhibit is exceedingly suggestive and full of
warnings.

pleasant to receive dispatch something
like this some day:
