SLOW TRAVELLING.

gainesville eNis, Gazette
MIR. Solomon SOule. of StoughtOn, a
farmer and an old resident OF that sec
tion OF Dane county, started for the
Centennial Exposition yesterday. The
manner in which he and his whole
family-in all eight persons are tTay.
cling is akin to the days before rail-
roads were built. lie proposes To
travel to Philadelphia in light wagons,
and To make the journey AS pleasant as
possible, he ordered two light spring
vehicles, each drawn by span of
sprlghtly mustang ponies. lie also
takes along AN extra horse, to be used
in case of emergency. One of the
wagons conveys the family, and the
other provisions and bedding. Easy
camp-chairs instead of common seats,
are provided for the family in the
wagon. Mr.. Soule has a driver for one
of his teams. and takes charge of the
other himself. He has also a good
tent, which he will put up for lodging
in each night. His outfit is complete
and the entire family anticipate taking
a good deal of comfort on their jour
ney eastward. After seeing the Cen
tennial he proposes to drive TO Maine,
his former home, and spend several
weeks, and return To- Wisconsin late in
the fall

loWAs NV BISHOP

Correspondence Chicago .,l0une.
The unfortunate Episcopal Diocese
OF Iowa. after much trihulation, con
tentOn, and strife. has elected a head
of the church to succeed the lamented
Lee. There is little doubt Or. Eccles-
ton could have been reelected bishop,
yet such an action would have resulted
in disatfection. lie therefore wrote a
letter To his friends, couched in noble
Christian language, and magnanimous
in spirit, which closed as follows .
Better Thousand times foI YOU all 10
go there 20 the cOnyentiOnl, ask the
Lord to show you what is best for
peace in His church, aud do that, re-
gardless of the claims or reputation of
you, or me, or any one else, except
your wounded diocese. With this
letter before them, his friends with
drew his name from the convention.
and DR.. William Stevens Perry, of
Geneva, n. Y, was elected on the first
ballot, 10y a vote of u TO 3 of the laitY,
and II To of the clergy. The
bishop-elect is Il man in the prime of
life, with robust, rugged health, and
great physical endurance. lie is an
earnest, dev0ut Christian, highly ed
ucated, and a gentleman in the strict
sense of the word, not beau, fan
ciful drawing-rOom man, but gentle
man man of great integrity, who
scorns artiiice OF cunning, and who eX-
poets all men, especially prOfessed
Christians, to act sincerely He is
now president of the Hobart College,
at Geneva, y Y. The Diocese of
Iowa must certainly feel proud of the
acquisition of such a man to stand at
the head of its church. He cannot
fail TO impress his presence upon the
church, command the confidence of
all, and restore harmony throughout
the State. His advent into the house
of bishops will be joyfully greeted by
the whole church of America, and re-
fleet honor and renown upon the do
cese he represents,--a people eminent
ly fitted to be the church of such a
bishop.

THE SALoNICA OUTRAGE.

Salonica has clearly been ready for
an outbreak for some time back, and
at length the cause for an outbreak
came. A young Bulgarian girl, who
had resolved to embrace Islam in order
that she might marry TurF, came by
railway from the village in which she
resided in ordeI that she might pub
liely make her profession. She was a
perfectly free agent she had put on
the yashmak and the feTidje which
Turkish women wear, and she was
about to do no more than is done con-
stantly in all parts of Turkey by Greek
or Catholic Christians. The day
which she selected for her Journey to
Sal0nica was ST. Georges day (old
Style, the great fete day of the
GTeeks-the day On which had been
expected TO declare war, and Bulgaria
break into revolt. In was also Turk
ish fete the feast of the spring and
the entire population was in high ex-
element. The object of the girl Wis
it was known to her friends and TO the
friends of her lover, and when she
reached the railway station dense
crowd of Christians and numerous
body of Turks were waiting to receive
her. The Christians, who strongly
disapprOved of her intention, seized
her as soon as she came out of the sta
ton, and forced her into the carriage
of the American consul, which hap
pened to be there. The American con-
sui. who is Greek was not in Salonica;
but the girls friends took his carriage
because, according to some, he was "a
a relative, and because according to
others, of his known sympathy with
the Bulgarians.

Stewards Estate.

Hilton, the lucky factotum and sue
cessor Of A. T. Stewart, is not to be allowed
TO enjoy his bonanza in the quiet he has an
ticipated. Persons claiming TO I've blood rel
atives OF the detrmct dry-goods man have
found lawyers ready to champion their cause;
and the matter has already gone so far that
the surrogate has issued an order requiring
the executors to appear and show cause why
the probate of the will should not be revoked.
The petition upon which this order was is
sued alleges illegal proceedings in the pro-
bate and undue influence upon the testatOr.
The latter's astounding hberality to Judge
Hilton, and the more remarkable transfer OF
the whole estate to that fortunate person by
the widow, afford a capital field for the in
genuity and shrewdness OF the lawyers, and
the stake is large enough to insure thorough
cultivation
