DIvING.-Mr. Gardiner Floyd, the expert :
enced diver, returned from Yarmouth yester-
day. There he has been since Tuesday morn
ing, searching for the Parker boy who lost his
life by falling through the ice on the Both of
November in Royals River. Mr.. Floyd spent
between five and six hours lin thoroughly ex-
aiming the bottom, which must be considered
extraordinary, considering the temperature and
state of the water, but it proved to be in vain,
and the heretofore doubling portion of the peo-
pie were forced to believe that he passed over
the dam.

already to 60 in, and it is expected that work

missioners will advertise tomorrow for propo-
sails for the work of the prisoners. They have
already received several propositions from diff
ferent manufacturers, but desire to give all an
opportunity before they make contract. The

ture of shoes. There is not to be any fire in
the building except in the engine room, thus
avoiding any danger from that source.

The special attention of the public is called
to the entertainment to be giveL at the Muse
UNI this afternoon for the benefit of Preble
Chapel The object is one which commends
itself to every charitable and humane person.
The purposes and work of the ministry at large,

strong inducement to support, the entertain
ment promises to be very attractive in itself.

parts and Mr.. Bascomb of the Museum, who
has kindly assisted them in rehearsal, reports
that they exhibit great spirit and excellence in
the representation. The young people who
take part, as we'll as Mrs. burlington and Mr..

have been prepared, have given much time and
labor to the enterprise which should meet suit

THE ALLEGED lLLEGALITY OF THE ELECTION

THE ALLEGED 1LLEGALITY OF THE ELECTION.
IChicago Tribune, February l0.l
It will be rememb ered that during the pro-
press Of the Convention the ballots Of both
the Chancellor of the Diocese aud the Chan
celor of the Cathedral were challenged. The
Chair oyerruled the challenge, and the votes
were SLOWED TO be cast, though the opposi-
ton thereto was very decided. On the fol.
lowing day Mr.. Melville W. Fuller and
Others opposed to DR.. De Koven's election
attempted TO mend the records, so they might
show that these ballots had been challenged,
but they we're again defeated. II the min
utes of the proceedings had shown this the
opposition would not be obliged to other
wise verify The fact. But it easily admits OF
proof, and they will act upon it notWnh-
standing the records contain no hint of it.
According to the best legal interpreters OF
the Church law neither of these officials had
a right to vote. The canons say that the
Chancellor of the Diocese is entitled to seat
in the Convention, but Go not endow Ain
with the Church franchise, The Chancellor
Of the Cathedral may, with two or three OF
the laity, and with the certificate of the act
ing Bishop, cast one vote. The Chancellor
of the Cathedral in the present case acted
entirely independent of both lsymen and Ger
titcates, and hence, it is claimed, voted lie,
sally. Both Ct these officials, II Is ssld, foled
for DR.. DE koyen. AS the majority ne re-
ceived was but one, his election would ue
snnulcd if the illegally OF these votes Is ao'

passage of the bill would be so great at the
south as to dispense with AL necessity for

element OF the South needed was an indica-
ton of the determination Of Congress aud
the Executive to reprcss lawlessness, 10
maintain order, and to preserve life aud pro-
perty. The President said, whether Con.

WASHINGTON, February 14.-Therc having
been some erroneous reports OF Speaker
Bialnc's speech in the Republican CAUCUS on
Friday evening hast the following is given as
81 authentic outline Of all he said:
The SPEAKER confined his remarks wholly
10 the proposition for general suspension of

lrfeucc whatever to any other subject. lie
stated that he could see no possible reason

Maine or in Michigan because there was q
disturbed condition Of affairs in Louisiana
Or Mississippi. Ii there il condition OF

," confined 10 the disturbed districts. He
t3n.d not see why southern States like Viz
C1uA, North Caroliua, and Tennessee, that
"'T" sow trying TO sustain good govern
!""h's. should be menaced and excited by
'~-Icuson OF the hajcdS corpus.
Moreover, the pending proposition was I'M
limited rs 10 territory and unlimited as TO
Time. The bill, if it should become law,
""ud confer upon the President of the
