During the recent session of tho House OF
Bishops OF the Episcopal Church, matter OF
considerable importance was brought before it
by its presiding officer, the venerable Benjamin
Is. Smith. The question WAS one which involved
a number OF delicate and intricate points of can
on LAW and the moro it was attempted to be- elu-
cidnted, the more obscure aud involved it SEEM
ed to become. Il Was referred to committees,
it wss discussed by Icy personages of eminence
learned in the law, and anew tho venerable pre-
siding Bishop addressed himself to it's solution.
It wns after ono Of these last attempts, which
had taxed tho patience and attention Of the
House to the uttermost only to leave the matter
seemingly in more hopeless confusion than be-
fore, that 3 rltty member Of the right reverend
