REV. ALoSzo WEBSTER,
Ornngeburg So, Ca,
DEAR SIn-Wc have received Jour late
favor asking n confirmation of your state
ments with respect TO the claim against NJ .
II, Delaney placed in our hands for collcc
ton by you and the trustee: Of the ss!e-
ynn Society Of John. island, The facts of
the case arc briefly these.
In March 1871 Tclcmachas Bayn,rl the
treasurer of the Wesleyan Society departed
this life intestate, having in his possession
funds of the Society to the nmonnt of two
hundred dollars. With this amount and
subsequent savings and collections it wns
the Socicty's intention to build n small
church.
In May 1871 Delaney was appointed on c
| Of the appraisers Of Baynard's estate, AMI in
| the discharge of his official duties he found
! at the house of the deceased package en-
dorsed "Telemachas Bnynard Trc 'surcr,
Funds belonging to the Wesleyan Society OF
Johns Island"
Instead of delivering this money to the
trustees, who claimed it, Delaney carried ii
| to Char lesion, and as he asserts in his an
swcr, invested it with money Of his own
in claims against the County Of Charleston.
Delaney has frequently promised to pny
all damage resulting from his confess. d
error in taking his money, and at our last
interview with him in August nn agreement
was concluded by which in consideration OF
our staying proceedings, he waste dischargc
this debt in quarterly payments beginning

The Fourth.

Watertown intends having a lively time
on the Fourth CT July, and all who VIII
make this city their base of operations on
that day will receive more than their
share Of enjoyment. Il must be borne in
mind that the principal feature of the day s
doings will be the Inauguration of the new
Driving Park in the 3D. Ward, which will
be formally opened for racing and trotting
for the first time The several committees
will spare no pains onthe coming anniversary
to make it ore OF exciting interest and pleas
ure to everybody and We, doubt cot the occas-
ion will be one long to be remembered by
the citizens Of this place and the adjoining
towns. The trotting and racing part of the
programme will not fail to excite lively
interest among all lovers Of the turf an
the necessary arrangements have been
made for other amusements of an enjoyable
character. The track will be in fine con-
dition, and if the weather permits some
good time VIII be made on it. Those who
seek day Of pleasure on the coming Fourth
will consult their own interests By coming
to WATERFOWL and to all who will favor us
with their presence We can promise a good
time

The Episcopal Council.
time.

The nnual Council of the Protes ia nj
Episcopal Church of Wisconsin, held last
week in Milwaukee,, settled the affairs of
the Diocese in very satisfactory manner
and its proceedings were characterized by
harmony of action and good feeling, in
strong contrast with the Council of February
last. The contest for Bishop was settled by
the election Of Rev. E. R. Welles, rector Of
Christs Church, at Red Wing, Minnesota.
The name Of DR.. J. DeKoven was not pre-
sented to the Council for the Office Of Bish-
op, but the selection Of Rev. DR.. Welles for
the position was well received by the friends
Of DR.. DeKoven.
DR.. Edward Welles, D. D., was born in
Waterloo, New York, and is about 46 years
of age. He graduated at Hobart College
Geneva, New York, in 1855, and for two
years subsequently was tutor in Deyereau
College at the Suspension Bridge. He was
ordained by Bishop Delaney, and went to
Minnesota in 1857, taking charge of Christ
Church, at Red Wing, where he has re-
manned ever since. He is repre- ented to
be a man Ct superior intellectual attain
ments, and his labors in the parish have
demonstrated that he possesses executive
and fnan cial abilities of a high order
qualifications indispensable in a Bishop.
He has the respect of all who know him,
and his election will undoubtedly be salts
factory to the Episcopalians of Wisconsin
The proposition to erect new diocese
in Wisconsin was carried. The new diocese
will consist of the nineteen counties of
Marathon. Oconto, Shawano, Door, Ke-
waunee, Brown, Outagamie, Waupaca,
Portage, Wood: Adams, Waushara, Winnie
bago, Calumet, Manitowoc, Sheboygan,
Fond du Lac, Green Lake, and Marquette,
and also such portion of Dodge County
as may be necessary to include in the limits
of the new diocese the village Of Waupun.
Before the division Of the diocese can take
effect the question has to receive the sanction
of the General Council of the Epis copal
Church which meets in October next. The
following delegates to the next General
Council of the Episcopal Church at New
York were elected Clerical, Rev. J.
DeKoven, Rev W. Adams, Rev. F. R. Half,
Rev. W. P. TsnBroeek. Lay, Mr.. J. B.
Doe, Mr. J. B. Perry, Mr.. W. q. Clark, of
Waterfowl, and Nr. J. A. Hslfsnstein, Of
Milwaukee.

The Prospect for Crops.

Mr.. James Mccall. of IXonia, under date
of the I'D inst, writes us as follows re-
garding the prospects of the crops in his
section:
81 have made a thorough exami nation of
my wheat fields, and have also received re-
ports from many Of our best farmers in
lxonia, and it is agreed that our present
spring wheat crop cannot .be more than hall
yield on account of being so thin on the
ground. Chintz Bugs are plenty in many
places in our town, but doing no damage as
yet. Oats are good, also corn and barley,
Potato Bugs are plenty Hay in most
meadows will be very good Glover ready
for the mower"

drome.

AS there is an apparent contradiction be-
tween the programmes & advertisements
IN the newspapers, as to giving al exhibi.
ton in the evening, in justice to our read
ers we will say, that at first the show in
tended to exhibit exclusively on Fair grounds
and show only day times. But recently
the company have decided to show under a
half mile Of canvas on quarter mile track.
This is lighted magnfcently by one thous-
and gas jets, giving to all a most brilliant
& dazzling appearance lat night all over the
quarter mile track
This enables the proprietor to giveswo
entertainments daily instead Of one as
originally intended viz, afternoon and eve
ming. This is by far the biggest exhibition
that ever visited Wisconsin. 1t is very EVIL
dent that ?. 7. Barnum is interested in this
new show for it is said to be an exact
counterpart Of his big Hippodrome in New
York. Mr.. P. T. Barnum's agent, who
was here two years ago, is at the head of
this Mammoth Travelling Hippodrome and
by many other "Signs infallible' we are
led to believe that the great Snowman is
unrev called somewhere behind the cur
tain. Ifthis be SO, it only adds to the
anxiety Of the public to see it.

To all lovers of sport there will be an

On this occasion a trotting match for
$500, best two in three, will take place
between Black Weas eel, of this city, owned
by Mr.. P. Kennedy, and the Black Prince
horse, of Sun Prairie. A lively race between
these two horses may be expected and there
should be large attendance.on the grounds.
Besides this running there will be trot
for purse of S25, SO that arrangements
/have been made for fine sporting after

Park Association will receive the encour-
agement that it deserves.
