many years a Professor in the Theology
cal Seminary of the City Of New York.
He has always bean looked
upon as a most learned Di-
vine, of pure sand spotless character
snd posseseed2 Of an NEGLECT which, in
every way, qualities him for the highsst
honors known to the church. Acting
upon this reputation, he was chosen by
the diocese of Illinois as its presiding
officer; but when the question of his con-
frmation came up, it was objected ia, on
the ground that he was an exceeding
High Churchman, and member OF the
Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament
These charges seem to have been re-
garded as sufficient to cause his defeat,
and this action seems. to pOrtend that the
convention is determined to put down
Ritualism and all extreme ideas in the
church.
As far as DR.. SEYMOUR himself is con-
cerned, it is very doubtful that the desired
end will be attained by his having been
rejected, for we read that there has been
reaction in his favor, and many friends
have been gained for him. So far is this
true. that it is said, he will be reelected
bv the Diocese of Illinois. In addition
to his case, though, strong resolutions
have been introduced into the convention
denouncing what is known as ritualism,
but which really means the in
PRODUCTION of such doctrines as
trans-substantiation, baptismal regenera-
ton, &c, which are claimed are not re-
cognized by the orthodox Protestant
church.
Doubtless this action will decide the
question whether these practices shall
be longer continued 1t is one which has
been much discussed, both in Europe and
America, and on account of events which
have transpired in our midst so recently
as to be still fresh in remembrance, and
which attracted general attention, it must
be invested with considerable interest
| here to our entire community.

ARTHUR l. FOREMAN, the Admins
tration Senator from West Virginia will
soon be laid in his little bed, the Legis-
laturc elect being largely Democratic
How the cut off Of West Virginia from
the "Old Dominion has turned to plague
the rascals that perpctrated it, is easily
summed up. The Democrats now have
every representative to Congress and one
Senator; and will soon elect the other
Senator. Radicalism is as dead in West
Virginia as in Georgia or Kentucky

noon Lewis K. kcllam, aged five years, son
of Captain W. =. VI. kclIAm. met with a ter
riblc fail ut the intersection Of Twenty fifth
and Clay streets. receiving serious injuries,
from which il is feared the little fellow may
not recover. The child was playing about
in the ncichborhooG above mentioned, and
hy SCme unfortunate m!S>tcp slipped into
the wooden schule, which mad become very
slippery from the water and moss passing
through il 20 the gully below, and, being
unable 10 catch the side Of the box, slid
rapidly Gown 10 the end Of the Schutc, at
which there is a perpendicular fall Of about
thirty feet. Falling this distance, the.child' s
head struck 4 stone in the gully and re-
ceiyed very severe cut. immediately un-
der the spout was 4 small hole in the earth
which had been made by the water falling
upon it. Into this hole, which was filled
with water, the child's head was plunged,
and there be remained for some minutes in.
sensible. badly injured by the fall, and in
immineat danger of drowning.
Mr.. Arthur WeiSiger, " no happened to be
in the vicinity at the time, saw the perilous
situation Of the child. and ran around to the
opposite side o.! the gulley, wentinto it, and
rescued him. He vas taken to Mr.. Hiram
divers residence, Or. Vest called in, and he
was revived. Yesterday the little fellow had
recovered bis consciousness, bur was unable
10 tell anything about the accident.
Some months ago little girl fell at this
very spot. but that time there was aconside-
rahle quantity Of water in the gully below,
and she was not injured.

MONTH OF MARY-FLoRAL TRIBUTE TO TBH
BLESSED EIRGIS.-A most Interesting and
touching ceremony took place at st. Peters
cathedral SUNDAY afternoon, the occasion be-
ing the floral onoring 10 the Blessed Virgin
by the children Of the congregation, which
occurs annually in this the month Of May
especially devoted to the mother Of God.
The Sodality Of ST. AloySlus and the Sodality
Of the Holy Angels, with their beautiful
banners, together with the boys choir, led
the procession Of boys, numbering two
hundred and fifty, each bearing in his hand
a bouquet of flowers. The procession, moving
from the basement Of the cathedral, entered
the main portals and wound its way through
the aSlcs and stopped in front OF the altar OF
the Blessed Virgin, where dedication was
read by Master George keinhardt; after
which each bouquet was deposited within
the sanctuary about the altar. This was fol-
lowed by a like procession on the part OF the
girls, about two hundred in number, each
wearing white wells, the dedcatory address
being beautifully recited by Miss Christina
Francisco.
After the presentation was concluded the
altar presented the appearance of vast
mound of lowery sweets. During the moving
of the two professions the youthful choirs
attached to each sang several hymns 10 the
Virgin very sWeetly.
The children having taken seats in the
pews of the centre aisle of the church, Rev.
Father Charles proceeded to give short in.
struction upon the great love, respect, and
affection they should have for their heavenly
mother, and spoke with some severity upon
the too prevalent practice among children OF
styling their parents " old man " and " ola
woman" He concluded by exhorting both
young and Old to model their lives after the
beautiful example set by the patroness OF
tins month-Mary, the mother Of God. The
Cathedral was crowded with an interested
audience
