RUndeu tldsshead the latey Episcopal
convention passed canon which ORR
ginated.irl'the house Of bishops. Frhe
substance of-thisf canon has for many
years been printed on the page before
the 'psalms in meter. But it seemed
to be so littleregardedsin many places,
by the most thoughtful among us, and
by those who have the right to speak,
If such right exists at all, itwas deter
mined thatwhat had been thus printed
for proper direction shonld become a
part Of the canon law of this church.
II Is AS follows. st shall be the duty
Of every minister of this church, with
such assistance Us he can obtain from
persons skilled in music, to give order
concerning the lines to be sung at any
time in his church !. and especially it
shall behis duty To suppress all light
and unseemly music, and all indecency
and irreverence in the performance,
by which vain and ungodly persons
proiane the devices ofathe sanctuary
1t has been plain enough for years
rs to what the minister was to do.
Now, it Is . matteroff compulsion;
he mast perform what is embraced in
this canon; he naast appoint the or
gallist and give direction. as to the
formation of his choir. How else can
he haze control over the music? And
I'd sny one word IN the interest Of good
order nll noe any one has to do, if he.
oe they, as the case may be, do not
like to remain in the choir, is to act
with the same propriety good tasCe
as in other matters. There is nothing
for'tnem to do but to stay out Of it.
Their vocation is ended hwhen they
cease to sing the part they We're kind
enough to take.. Order is both seemly
and wholesome. I. G3

CHINAMEN USEFUL AFTER
ALL.-The people of California
are beginning to understand that
the Cinnamon may be useful after
all. There has been great deal
of complaint from the Pacific
coast i'm regard to the unwished-
for emigration from Asia, ard a
general disposition manifested to
regard the Monaghan asa nuisance
But the abundant harvests of the
present season found the farmers
unprovided with sufficient white
laborers to reap them, and they
were very glad to avail themsel-
yes OF the dispised cheap Chinese
qvorl in this emergency. Thous
ands OF Cinnamon have gone into
the harvest fields and helped to
garnI9 the wheat, of which Cali
fornia has this year the largest
crop ever produced in this State.
1t Is found, too, that the Chinese
are good hands for orchard work,
and the fruitmen make no objec-
ton to the low rates they accept
TOR the labor. The usual price
paid for this descriE ion of work
ranges from seventy-five cents to
one dollar q day. the Chinese
bar ding themselves. The de-
mand for field hands has had its
effect upon the wages paid to Chi
nese house servants, who take adj
vantage of the situation with de-
gree ofalacrity which would seem
o indicate that all reason for COM
plant in regard to the cheapness of
Chinese labor is likely to soon dis
appear. The San Francisco Bulle-
tan says that these servants have
secret organization, by means of
which they are able to secure mi
mute information about the places
in which men of their race are
employed. They know what ev.
cry servant is paid, and if one
IS going to leave his place, they
likewise know that weeks before
hand, and the causes for his leav-
ing. In this way they have gain
ed great advantage over their
employers, which they do not
scruple to use for their own bene-
fit.

THE SCANDAL.
Susam's Story Confirmed.

CHICAGO, July 30.-A special
from Leavenworth states that Col
Anthony, q brother of Susan b.
Anthony who lives in that city, con
firms the story of Mrs. Tilton s
confessions to his sister. A year
ago, Susan, then in Washington,
related to him all the particulars,
just as they have been published.
New York, July 30.-The Bee
cher scandal investigation drags
slowly. No progress was made
yesterday. Moulton is still at Mar
ragansett. 1t is not known when
he will return. Beecher has writ
ten to Moulton, asking permission
to examine for his own information
such of his letters as are in Moul
tons possession, promising to re-
turn them. Storrs is expected to
testify before the Committee to-
night. It is understood that Gay
lor will withdraw his complaint
against Tilton before Monday
Beecher will probably testify be.
fore the Committee during the lat
ter part of the work, and his testi-
mong concludes the investigation.

Mr.. Theodore Tilton was arrest
ed at the instance of William l..
Gaylor, of the Brooklyn Argus
staff, on two charges of libel. He,
in brief, characteristic colloquy
with the Judge, pleaded not guilty
and was discharged on his own rec
ognizance until yesterday morn
ng, at 10 o'clo elk. The suit for IL
bel is brought against Tilton at
his own instigation for the purpose
of getting the scandal" into the
courts, and thus compelling wit
nesses to testify under oath.

Presentappearancesindicate that
au effort is to be made to divert
attention from the main point
raised in the Tilton Beecher affair
by leading off into side issues, and
at the same time to wear out the
patience of the public by the pub
LEGATION of great quantities of
tedious and confusing stuff having
no direct bearing on the case. This
sort oftactics may have the desired
effect on certain class of people,
but it will not clear Mr.. Beecher
of the terrible charges against him
any more than the ostrich secures
its safety by running its head under
the sand. In the mind of nearly
all persons who are not prejudiced
for or against any OF the actors in
the sad drama, there is a deep
seated conviction that there can
not be SO much smoke without
some fire underneath" and the
only way to eradicate this eonvic-
ton and give Mr.. Beecher his old
place in the heart Of the public is
for him TO meet the issue squarely,
by disproving the explicit and
specific sworn accusations against
him, so far as it is possible to
prove negative, and by explain
ing to the satisfaction OF all men
TIE cause and meaning OF those
pOrtenti0us testers, the writing OF
which he 80 far does not deny -
Mrs. Triton has precisely similar
duty 70 perform before a full ver-
dicf ofacquittal can be given, How
Mr.. Tilton may appear on cross
examination, or what sort OF a
husband he may have been, are
matters not pertinent to the case
at present. 1t is the accused, not
the aeeuser, who is on trial.

MANLY SENTIMENTS.

We admire themanly and patri-
otto declaration of Hon. John G.
Priest, of Missouri, who though a
member of the Democratic Nation
al Committee, says: 81 am a Dem
ocrat, but l like Missouri better
than Democracy, and if one must
be neglected, let it be the latter -
The trouble with the political buzz
yards in his State is that tn ey do
not like West Virginia better than
party and its pickings.

THE EXPRESS BUSINESS. There
are rumorS current that the differ
ent railroads intend to combine
and do their own express business;
that IS, carry the packages and re-
ceive the full price themselves
thus making the profit now made
by the Adams Express Company.
The New York Journal of Com :
merce says there is no noubt that
this idea has been worked up for
several years by men connected
with railroads, but adds that the
whole scheme is exploded by the
ascertained fact that the Adams
Express Company contracts con-
tinue in force for 10, Is, and 20
years, no contract having less than
ten years from this time to run.
1t further says that the sch me for
the establishment of a railroad tel
egraph company is exploded in
the same way, on account of ex-
listing contracts with the Western
Union Telegraph Company, to al
low exclusive privileges of COM
mercial telegraphy along the line
in return for certain benefits to the
railroad compahies.
The unenviable renegade who
held the position of Chairman of
the Democratic Executive Conn
mittee of Berkeley county, has, we
learn resigned his portfolio. This
was work ofsupererogation. How
such a creature came to be appoint
ed will, we suppose, ever remain
among the insolvable mysteries.
If several more of the same COM
mittee will but follow the exam
pie, it will be agreeable all arou I'd.
