cation OF the Diocese Of Western Michigan
was held at Allegan on Tuesday evening, July
Goth, aud continued through Wednesday and
Wednesday evening. Bishop Gillespie and
eleven clergymen we're present, The opening
sermon was preached in the evening by Rev.
John Coleman, from Rom. vi 90. After this
service the ladies Of the parish gave an ele-
CANT reception for the clergy at the house Of
Hon. W. B. Williams, where over 200 persons
were present, and the occasion was one OF
much sociabiity aud enjoyment.
Wednesday morning the convention met and
engaged in an interesting and profitable dis
cussion Of the circulation and use OF books
and tracts. The general circulation Of the
prayer book in hotels, upon lines Of travel,
and among families not attending church SER
wee was specially dwelt upon. The wider cir
culstion OF denominational papers Was also
urged, and the canvassing Of the Various par
shes to more thoroughly introduce them urged.
The bishop has used portion Of the money
paid him for his Ohio vistations in establishing
book and tract depository in Grand Rapids.
A similar one is hereafter to be established ct
Kalamazoo, and it Is intended, when . proper
person can be found, to put colporteur in
the field to assist more thoroughly in the gen.
eral diffusion OF Episcopalisn literature.
This was followed by a sermon from the
bishop.
The business meeting was held in the after
noon. The canon on conversations was read.
and an organization effected under it, as fol-
lows President, Rev J. T. Conover secre-
tary Rev. H. J. Cook; treasurer, A. p. Love-
ridge, The several members gave some account
OF mission fields and labor about them. and
scheme was Adopted for obtaining thorough
knowledge OF missionary wants and opportuni-
ties. The Dioces an Board OF Missions has APP
propriated $4,000 Of the diocesan fund, and
$1,000 received from the Domestic Board
among eleven missionaries in the diocese. Ev-
erything in the progress of the diocese Is highly
encouraging but missionary operations could
be greatly extended il the Board OF Missions
had more money TO expend. There are import
ant points Ike Manistee which ought to be oc-
cupied at once. The bishop has applications
from twenty-five clergymen to come into the
diocese.

PANAMA, July IL Peace has been restored
at San Miguel, the scene of the late ultramon-
tame riots in Salvador. The bishop of Santa
Zecla and seven priests were secretly arrested,
hurried under guard of 100 soldiers to Port
Libertad, where they we're put on board steam
er and sent into Nicaragua. Bishop Carcamo
and two canons have been expelled from the
country, also provisor Rodriguez. It was discov-
cred that similar outbreaks to that at San Miguel
lad been arranged for all over the republic.

Now that the wheat crop has been secured
and corn and oats promise an abundant YIELD
the question which most interests the farmer is
the price at which he will be able to sell his
surplus. From present indications there is
likely to DO quite large export demand for
cereals, created by the destruction Of the grain
crops IL Europe by flood and drought. In an
dcipation Of this demand, wheat has advanced
IN price in New York about twenty-five cents
per bushel, while corn has gone up about ten
cents since the first OF July INST.
The present outlook is that the farmers will
sell for good prices, which will make times
easier and money more plentiful among the
great mass of the people. This condition will
enable those who are in debt to liquidate and
discharge their obligations. 1t will also have
the effect to revive business and produce more
activity in business circles, as well as to open
new enterprises. In short, to infuse new life
aud vgor and activity all round

On Boxing-day q little boy named
William Matthews, aged II, the son of a
working shipwright, called at the Sea-
mems Hospital, Greenwich, and asked
to see the secretary. On being shown
into the Office he bashfully explained
that he had been q patient at the hospital
for six weeks in the summer, and in
order to chow his gratitude for the kind
treatment he received during this period,
he had saved up all his halfpence and
now begged to present them to the Sea-

then handed 6s. to Mr.. Burdett, the Sec

Mr.. S. Luchetti, late chairman OF the

q letter in the st. Thomas Times to the
Liberal Electors, thanking them for the
honor conferred upon him in o~lcctlng him
" although aware that he could not ac-
cept o reelection to the Council" His
reasons are not stated.
We have TO correct IN error in our
statement Of the number Of votes received
by Mr.. Luchetti. According to both st.
Thomas papers, he received 115, and
not, as we had learned, 121.
The Times gives q complete list Of
all the candidates, with the number Of
votes for each and says that 202 electors
voted. The average vote for the Lib
eral Ticket lin town) was 1l43, that for
the Conservative was sos, showing an
average Majority Of POI for the Liberal
Ticket.
The Tidcnde, in thanking those who
"voted according to conscience and con-
viction," blames those who out of
fear RETAINED from voting" The mum
Der of abstainers cannot be seen as
neither paper gives the total number Of
registered votes.

The LARGEST FARM IN THE WORLD.-Thls
is rather large claim to make, even in this
country whers real estate lies around in par
cells of considerable size, but according to the
St. Louis Republican it may be fairly. applied
to the estate of Geo. Grant, founder of the Vic
toria Colony in Kansas. His farm embraces
the whole County of Ellis, is largera than any
dukedom of Europe, and contains 576,OO
acres Mr.. Grant devotes himself principally
to stock raising, and has accomplished a great
deal by the introduction of the best bfooded
stock and exhibiting the best methods of rear-
ing, feeding and improving the foreign and do
mestic breeds of horses, cattle and sheep. He
has Just wintered 1000 sheep, with loss Of
less than one per cent. the secret of his success
lying in providing good shelter. He is the
owner of the thoroughbred stallion, Flodden,
valued at S25,O0O, the father of which won the
Derby race in 1860. He has just purchased
for his farm thirty odd brood mares in Ohio,
Virginia and Kentucky, and he has S25O00o
invested in stock. Among the large number
of resident colonists and stockraisers who have
purchased land of him, and are now raising
stock in Victoria Colony, are many young men
of prominence, both in this country and Eng
land. The Hon. Walter Maxwell, younger son
of Lord Herries, of Everingham Park. York.

home there.

them in authority, making laws for them-and
making them very badly at that..openly plum,
dering the State, bribed by rascally whites, and

The negroes on many parish juries supervisors

complete power over the parish taxes, roads,
bridges and all county matters. Negro juries
are called to sit upon intricate cases OF COM
mercial law and other matters which even in
telleent men find it difficult to understand
and the black man himself has, it would seem
an instructive appreciation of the absurdity Of
this, for it is notorious that a negro criminal
