FSnising Church Money.

The Protestant Episcopal Bishop Of Texas
says in his last Convention Address "Ths
numerous shifts resorted to now-a-days (some
of them nott Objectionable in principle and in
their teniencies) to raise money for parish pur-
poses, result too often from the disposition to
avoid giving directly according to the ability
which God hath given. The pleasure and ex-
citement Afforded By gay entertainments, ex'
hibitions bordering tiieatrics, lotteries,
dances, aud such Ike, have a good desl to do,
no doubt, with many u the Efforts made to
raise means for Church pDp ses. Taey minis.
tor largely to tho stpstitcs ard passions of
this essentially worldly minded ses - su'h,
we believe, as has never been asen
before. Bat We hesitate rot 10
declare that. especially in such connection, ;hey
are all abomnnron Ia the sight OF Col Aud
the devil no doubI, rejoicrs in everything Of the
knd-for the Church loses more. far more, than
it gains 1t may build up thereby without, but
only for spiritual decay and death to prevail the
more within. We are more convinced in enort,
that the Church will never appear in her real
beauty and strength, and never advance as she
ought to advance until all this is laid aside, and
her members give cheerfuliy and according to
their ability, at least ons tenth, as Gods people
OF old were required to give"
Wilmington daily commercial., 1875-10-08


The prevailing spirit Of economy ID showing its
Influence even on the race course. The New
York Times in noticing the opening Of the Fall
races at Jerome Park, says
There was a. great disappointment in the
toilets of tue ladies' as IN the teams of the gen
temen. Very few ladies were remarkable by
their dress, probably not more than half dozen
being III special attire The majority were IN
dark walking dresses of moderate length, many
being in black. The ladies' part OF the
grand stand offered no flashing display OF ra-
disnt silks. satlns, and diamonds. Indeed tue
female costumes were sombre that the gem
tleman who wore light overcoats were butter
flies in comparison, and had it not been for a
very brilliant and universal display OF Autumn
hats the ladies' would have hardly shown any
colora at all. Many were wrapped in warm
cloaks, lined with fur, for the air was keen, too
keen for thinned blood, and others were draped
with heavy cachemeres. Very few were without
Wrappers of any kind, only those who were in
magnificent toilets long robes OF neutral tints
heavily embroidered, or of that peculiar STRIPED
fabric which lis called the JlH'aOuS. This being
the case, the green slopes of the Club hill
which on former occasions have been a mass of
glowing hues from the splendor of feminine at
tire, were uncommonly quiet, and every whit as
sombre as the ladies' end Of the grand stand
And this Was the theme of universal comment
among the gentlemen. Everybody said that the
New York ladies' had actually learne a lesson
OF economy, and were putting it in practice.
huu rs tiilb IL u very dlfnlraDe thing, tile 0ifi-
cers Of the Jockey Club will certainly not COM
PLAIN of it.
The falling off in the attendance at the Club
house was very marked in the great refreshmeut
room which il usually crowded, Yesterday not
half dozen in that vast expanse OF tables were
occupied Generally there Is a constant popping
OF champagne corks, and perennial fountain
OF golden pink wine flows in the crystal cups.
Yesterday such poppings few and far be-
tween, and those tables that were occupied wero
adorned for the most part with bottles OF Bass.
And on the balconies where young gen
tlemen with fleecy light overcosts, golden eve.
glasses, and golden pencils, used to vociferate
"Ill take the odds against McGrath or Me-
Daniel, who'll give themI Who'll give odds
against Aristdes p the good folks sat In silence
and watched the races without the least attempt
at betting furor. Doubtless there was plenty
of that at the grand stand, but in the Club
house there were everywhere unmistakeabe
signs that Brother Jonathan had put on the
screws. and was not in the least inclined throw
his greenbacks upon the green turf. 1t was
sober and sombre crowd, and the ony thing
that redeemed the general quietude was the
high character Of the racing.
