rFnsoNAL.-lt is it'll profound regret
that we learn that the Rev. j l.. Parks
ct the Episcopal Church, is mcditatlng Il
removal from this place to San Francisco
or, rather, to Oakland, California, whittier
he is now in transit. During his soioG' n
here of two years he has Won golden
opinions of all those who have been ;"
fortunate a. to make his acquaintance,
Indeed, it could not well be otherwise
.or such gcuiality Of BANNERS such hi II
culture in everything that enters into the
composition eft the polished gentleman
combined with the manly practice OF all
the christian virtues, could not fail OF APP
ureciation in this or any )thcr community
The late elections have almost annihi-
lifted sectional prcjudices, and even II tIiis
were not so, we of the South have aDni-
lant room to claim Mr. Parks as one OF
ourselves; tor though born and educated
in ;he North. his father was Il NORTH CAR
Gilman who graduated at West Point WIN
Jefferson Davis and Bishop Polk, ana VINO
after his graduation entered the ministry
Of the Episcopal Church and became thc
Rector of the great Trinity Church, Ne"
Work. His mother was Il Virginia lady
viii, such blood circulating in his veins
he could not well be any thing else but Il
Southern gentleman.
As an evidence of the high standing o.
Mr.. Parks as u minister IN his church, {
mention that lie has had, in the last ie"
months, a half dozen calls to take charS'
"f churches in such places as MemPhi'
Tenn. Cincinnati and Cleveland, ONO &c
We understand MIR. Parks is very
much attached to Winchester, and only
proposes leaving it for a larger lield o
nsejulncss-and further, if the outlook II
california should not please him it Is III
intention to return here and continue nj
lnhors IN this Parish, which we most SIN
scvely hope he will do.

A strange though not a novel phase
of the Indian question, is that two pro-
phets have arisen, each of them in re-
gions far remote from the other, preach
ing that the Indians should have no
further intercourse with whites AMI
missionaries, and that though few in
number, they sh all again possess the
land, SmohaIla, the Oregon prophet,
urges the Indians to live upon no reser-
walton, to accept no bounty, to enter
no church or school or house of prayer,
and to be in no way lured from the
habits Of their forefathers. Already
he has compact and powerful band
who believe in his doctrines and try to
live up to them, though no attempt has
been made to carry out the eXtermina
tion of the whites, which he also preach
es. A similar pro het has arisen among
the COmanches af Arizona, who tells
his people that he has had an interview
with the Great Spirit, who said that
the Indians who were adopting the
mode of life of the whites werC
going down hill fast, as regarded poru
latlon, and that the Comanches woult
do the same, should they too become
civilized.
