\ valued correspondent writes Us from
Northern Vermont that there has been a
great coming together among Congrcga-
tionalist-. BaptiSts, and Methodists. 4 de-
gree Of union has been reached which no.
body would have dreamed of fifty years ago.
4 spiritual influence prevailed all over the
state during the Winter months and late
into the Spring This was undoubtedly in
tensited by the iraternal feeling which was
manifested IN various ways, and particular
IL IN union prayer meetings and meetings
lU- promoting temperance and other mea-
~ures OF reform. The churches seem pre-
parinz for an active winter campaign
Their confidence is not based upon any ex-
pe';atIJn OF aid from distinguished evan
CYCLISTS outside. but as the frurt Of persever
ing and well-directel home-labor. The
Episc0pA. people are disposed to be charita-
bic AID friendly. Their rectOrs. however,
are, as IL class, the highest Of High Church
men; they have no intercourse with minis
tiers of other denominations. As their
number is not large. however, their peculiar
views have attracted but little attention.
Few of our ministers are known outside the
State but it seems to be a noticeable fact
that large and wealthy churches in contigu-
Gus States understand that Vermont is
capital territory to canvass whenever they
need supply. ~ J. h.dpeadsnt.
This description Of the rectors does moi
hold good as to the estimable rector of ST.
Paul's, Of this city either a. to his height
as a churchman. or as to non-intercourse
with ministers Of other denominations.
