To breathe pure, healthful air, and to fo.-
low occupations conducive to health and
long life are the privileges Of the minority.
The majority must dwell wherever their
lot Ia cast, however insalubrious the locality
may be, and work at the craft assigned to
them, however destructive to health and
vieor. Medical science has, however, come
to the sid of the latter. In Hostetter' 9

mr.. LATANE's LETTER.

No event has occurred for years
which excited sn much interest 10 our
religious community a. the resignation
by Rev. LArANR OF the Rsctorship oil
St. Mathews congregation in this city,
and his withdrawal from the ministry
of the Protestant Episcopal Church.
The reasons which have led Mr..
LArASE to this step are fully set forth
in his letter to Bishop JOHNS which we
publish this morning and to which We
invite the attention Of all our readers
1t would not be proper for VI
nor is it our desire to take any
part in the controversy which
will probably follow this action Of
one OF the most talented and prominent
clergymen OF the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the diocese OF Virginia We
must commend. however, the manifes'
sincerity and conscientiousnesss which
mark Mr. LArANE's conduct in this
matter, and which all who know the
man will recognize as ruling traits in
his character. During his residence OF
about three years in this city, he has
drawn to himself many warm personal
friends and has impressed oil With
whom he came in contact as q strictly
conscientious man and earnestly devot-
ed to his work as q Chris.
tan m mister. Whatever may
be the result Of the important step he has
taken, he will still have the personal
sympathy and the profound respect o.
his congregation and Of the coummuni.
ly at large. What action the congre.
CATION of st. Matthews Church will
take in relation TO the matter is yet to
be determined. We learn that at the
meeting Of the vestry laet Friday, at
which Mr.. LArANs first rendered his
resignation and this Letter of Witbs
dyawal was read. q large nsjority was
found TO be opposed to the acceptance
OF his resignation, and ito further
consideration was postponed until some
day this week, to allow an opportunity
of consulting more fully the views Of
the members OF the congregation.
