pal Church Of this Diocese on Thursday, and
the fact that its refusal to withdraw the pre-
sentiment against the rector and assistant rec.

letter of Rev. Alfred NJ. Randolph to Presid.

Episcopal circles. The manual of prayers,
for the issuing and circulating of which Rev.
Jos. Richey and Rev. c. B. Perry were
presented, contains, it is claimed by their
prosecutors, medieval prayers for the dead that
were never in the Book of Common Prayers,
aud others that were expurgated from It, in.

prayers involve the doctrine Of purgatory the

The Dansville Adrerfiser tells the following:
''0n Friday, May 2sth, Moses George, Of
this village, q veteran of the war Of 1872, who
has passed his eightieth year, extracted from
his groin bullet which was buried there by
the rifle of an Indian, ut the battle of Chip.
pewa, on the 9Th day of July, 1915. The
bullet struck the inside of the right leg near
the groin as the soldier was wheeling into
line, and badly shattered the thigh bone.
The bullet weighs full half ounce and is
concaye on one side, showing the impress of
the bone which it struck. 1t is somewhat
blackened, but beneath athin coating the lead
is as pure and bright as it was over half a
century ago. The results Of the wound made
by the bullet were very severe. The limb
has shortened six inches or more, and below
the thigh and reaching nearly to the knee is
thickly SCARED, where pieces of the shattered
bone, over fifty in all, have from time to time
worked out. The bullet did not return by its
original entrance, but came to the surface
about four inches above, and was taken out
by the veteran himself without the aid of in.
struments. He was overjoyed to get his eyes
on the old enemy who had worried him SO
long"

STURGEON AS SHAD PRorEoroRs. The fish.
ermen along the Hudson having refused to
remove their nets for twenty four hours. once
week, in order to allow the shad a chance
to move up the river where they are in the
habit Of spawning, Seth Green has Matched
forty thousand young sturgeon, which he has
placed in the river, and which number he in-
tends to increase to three millions. In thr ee
years time they will have attained q large
size, and will then go through shad nets like
an arrow through the mir, and thus enable
the other fish to move Mt will up and down
stream. Sturgeon were very plenty in the
Hudson twenty years ago, selling from fifty
cents to 81 each, while the present price in
the New York and Albany markets Is So, and
the demand is greater than the supply. Shad
are now selling for one-third Of the price that
they sold for before propagation was intro
duced, and Mr.. Green expects in three or
four years hence the price Of sturgeon will be
reduced in similar ratio. The sturgeon is
valuable as food for the poor on account OF
its cheapness, while the spawn is used as
carrie, an epicurean delieacy, large quantities
Of which are annually exported to Europe

TERRInc SroRN Kansas City, Missouri,
June &f.-The most terrific storm since 1874
visited this sectionon Sunday night II began
about . o'clock and lasted four or FIVE hours.
The rain poured down in torrents, and was
accompanied with very high wind, hail and
terrible thunder and lightning Several hous-
es in the city we're struck by lightning and
number unroofed. Immense damage was
done to the streets and many cellars Hooded.
The storm extended over the country for
an area Of tifty or more miles to the south and
southwest but it is thought not to have exten.
ded far to the north. The damage to farms
Is very great, fences being washed away and
fields of corn on the bottom land submerged
and damaged. The railways suffered severely.
Three bridges were washed away on tho Fort
Scott road, two on the Kansas Pacific, and
six cars ditched on the North Missouri road.

1t would be a very erroneous impress
sion to suppose that the only sufferers,
during commercial stringeney, are the
poor. There are many men who have
the reputation of being well.to-do, if
not wealthy, who are, this day, bearing
great burdens in order that others, de-
pendent upon them, shall not suffer ex-
tremities. Many a clerk IN this city
retains his place very much to the detri-
ment Of his employer, who, if he con-
suited his interest solely, would let him
shift for himself when that kind of op-
Grafton is dismal indeed. We are con-
WINGED that the rich, or those supposed
to be so, are, at this time, in numerous
instances, practieing not only self-de-
NAL, but actually, out of native and
noble generosity, enduring many sacri-
fees in order that their poorer breth-
rem may not be driven to want or de-
spair. 1t may sound Ike foolishness,
but it is a truth that there is more
anxiety in bank parlors and mercantile
Offices than the generality Of men sup
pose. Everywhere the "grim phantom
Of uncertainty" is making the capital
ist miserable, andi it is to his credit that
he does not selfshly resolve a portion
Of his difficulty By so cutting down
expenses as TO make his clerks more
wretched than himself.

mORTON,s HOBBY.

1t is not generally known that Joint
Rule %, whose dangerous nature now
agitates the patriotism of Senator Nor
ton, was adopted by the Radicals them
selves as late as the winter of 1855.
Let them now abolish this rule and
nearly all theimaginary evils connected
with the constitU donal method for
electing President aud Vice-P President
viii disappear. We do not need i'm
provement Of the Constitution half so
much as its enforcement. On the 8th
of February, 1866, Vice President Ham.
lin, in counting the electoral votes,
stated that he 'had in his possession
returns from the States of Louisiana
and TENNESSEE, but, in obedience to
the law Of the land, he held it to be his
duty not to present them to the con.
yention." What Hamlin here
called "the law of the land" wa
a mere joint resolution, DISTINGUISHING
all the Rebel" States, which Presi-
dent Lincoln signed with awritten pro-
test, disclaiming his right to interfere
in counting the electoral votes. So in
February, 1869, a joint resolution was
passed by both houses declaring that,
if the vote Of Georgia should affect the
result. it must not be counted; other
wise, otherwise. So Ben Wade went
through the absurd formula of first an
nounc.ng the electoral vote with Geor-
gia included, and then with that State
excluded. 1t did not matter, as Grant
had the majority either way; but no
constitutional amendment can reach a
party that openly INDUCES IN such dan
gerous ~puerihties. 1t is not the Con-
stitution that needs changing so much
as its administrators.

The Chicago Tribune, Administra-
ton Republican, argues that Federal
interference with the Garland govern
mentlwould be a blunder, if not worse,
adding:
Moreover, we have one hell on our
hands in the South already. This is
the limit demanded by the most orthO-
dOx creed. Louisiana Is enough. Are
we to organize another hell in Arkan-
sas for the sake of a crowd Of carpet
baggers? Let US keep orr hands off.
Perpetual meddling viii only make
matters worse. Arkansas is getting
along remarkably well, and the execu-
tive authorities at Washington had
better let well enough alone. This
viii probably be the mature Judgment
OF the President. 1t is not difficult to
recognize IN the message the bad logic
and worse law Of that miracle Of inef-
fciency and prejudice, AttOrney-Gene-
raj Williams"
But the Tribune Is probably mis-
taken in attributing the Arkansas
message to Attorney General Williams.
That official could not write an instru-
ment so short and sharp, if he should
try for a year. Besides, it bellies his
WI elaborate and elongate decision of
last spring. We fear Grant has fallen
into worse hands than Williams, if
that be possible.

A SENATORIAL BULLY COWED.

washington special tteO. lO) 70 the Chicago
Times.
Nipple Mitchell, the brevet imitator
Of the delegate from Utah. Cannon, is
tired of hearing the truth. He accost-
ed Mr.. Crawford, correspondent of the
Pittsburg Leader, on the floor of the
House to-day, and proceeded to indulge
in a small game Of verbal bluff. The
scribe, however, declined to wilt, and
after spluttering cheap Indignation
and bad English for a few minutes, the
much-misnsed Mitchell sneaked out
and hied him to the peaceful bower Of
the Senate chamber. Mitchell assert
ed that he had been slandered, and
that if the correspondent repeated the
stories he would cut his epistolary
heart out. The latter stuck to all he
had written, swore it was true, and in
vited the bloviant bigamist to proceed
at once with his anatomizing, or else
shut his homely mouth. The scene
was nuts and raisins In the way Of
mirth for the bystanders, and the
double barreled family man slid out,
followed by the grins of the crowd.
