Tho General Convention of the Protestant
Episcopal Church Of the United States as
scmbcs in Boston tomorrow. This grave
and dignlcd body will meet at Trinity
Church in that city, an ecclesiastical cdifcc
which for architectural beauty and artistic
adornmcnt scarcely has its equal in tho
country.
The Convention will bc composed of fifty
nine bishops. two hundred clergymen, and
many distinguished laymen of this large
and respectable communion, and it will
lcgislate on matters touching the interests
of the whole Church. or all the Protestant
denominations in the United States, the
Episcopal is the one which, by reason Of its
orderly and beautiful ritual, appeals at
once to the aesthetic and the religious sense
OF the community. It's membership is
chiefly in the large cities and towns, and,
Connecticut alone excepted, the farming
| communities AFRO little under its inliu-
enea But, though not OF an aggressive
church, in the sense that the Mcthodists
and Baptists arc aggressive the Episcopal
lians have steadily advanced Of recent years,
making frequent inroads on the ancient cccle-
siastical preserves of Puritanism. II is, in
deed, significant that this General Convcn-
ton is TO be held in "a church at Boston which
Is the finest edilicc for worship Ia that city,
and one of the grandcst in the whole coun-
try.
One OF tho exciting questions which will
como before this body, which il the highest
tribunal Of the Episcopal Church, will con-
Germ the change Of name OF the communion.
Some OF the High Church Episcopalians OBJ
jcct strenuously to calling it the Protestant
Episcopal Church. They contend that that
does not properly describe IL; that IL is n
branch Of the Church Catholic, its ministry
being in undeniable succession from the
apostles. A few possibly might be content
with the Anglican Church, a. indicating the
country where IL got its publication but they
do not wish to have a name which will place
them ON an equality with the other Protest
ant bodies, for they claim to be true Catho-
lies.
This present Convention cannot decide
this question, since under the rules Of its
organization it is restricted H. advising the

Church 1t has grave significance, for it in-

The Raid Upon Mexican Soil.

News comes that Lieut. Col. SuAFrER and
Lieut.. BULLS, who with eight companies
OF cavalry, a couple OF CALLING guns. and
full forage and commissary trains have Tor
the past few days been invading Mexico as
coolly as If Congress had declared war
against her, are safely back on the Amcri-
can side OF the Rio Grandc.
They owe their safety, in no small meas
ure, to the forbcarance of the Mexican regu-
lar forces, which now. az heretofore. manifest
the utmost desire and determination neither
10 give nor take offence during these wanton
invasions of their country small body Of
Mexican cavalry kept upon BrLLIss trail,
and In sight of his command, but they
simply watched his operations.
SO far as the nominal object Of the expedl-
tlon is concerned, IL proved dead failure
that is 1t captured no thievng Indians, and
picked up only twelve horses and two mules,
eaid to have been taken at Some timo from
Texas. But BULLS, IT is said, never claimed
a. Vv upon Inc Ircsn TRAN or recent horse
thicves-he was on general scout after
animals that had in times past been carried
across the Rio Grande Ii tho real object Of
this extraordinary raid, ordered and sane
TONED by the commander Of the department,
was to " stir up" the Mcxicans, then it has
been double failure.
This great outrage had nevertheless been
deity planned. SHAFrERand BULLS are bold
and skilful officers; the troops selected for
their raid are among the best in the DEPART
ment. Behind them were moving toward the
Nueces and the Bravo, under prctence OF
disaster, plenty Of rcinforcements. There
are now in Texas, or else still on Mexican
soil, two full regiments and two companies
OF cavalry, making twcnty-six companies
OF cavalry, and three full regiments and
two companies of infantry, making thirty

In New Mexico, in Arizona, and in Califor-
mia there are largo forces ready TO march
toward the Rio Grande. Gov. HuBBARp OF
Texas is meanwhile recruiting at least five
full regiments of volunteers for the same
purpose. Such is the war that the Admins
Tation and the annoxationists are preparing
and endeavoring to wage on the Rio Grande,
against friendly power, and without any
sanction from the American people.

Our correspondent w. A. MILES recon-
mends those who condemn tho use Of brewers

then answer the question. what is it in brewers
grains that Is unhealthy 10 cows or injurious to

who gets rid of his refuse at profit. would give

MILES fails 10 notice that the material question
Is not whether brewers grains fresh from the
mash tub are fit for food. It is rather whether
the milk Of cows fed with this refuse after il

some or not; because Mr.. MILES can find album
dant evidence from tho reports which have
boon printed recently in THE SUN. that this is
tho condition In which these grains are COM
monty fed by farmers who use them. His
question however. was satisfactorily answered
in Sundays sun 10y tho learned Prof. GolNG.
who lectures in the New York Veterinary
College.
Mr.. MILEs's denial Of another correspondents
assertion that the milk. after feeding brewers
grains, smells Of stale beer. because the freshly
boiled grains have no such smell. is probably
based on the same erroneous assumption that
only the fresh grains are fed 1t Is n familiar
fact that cows milk is very apt to be favored
by any peculiar food. A number Of tho best
milk dealers in New York. experts in their call
ing have said to reporters Of THE Sun that
they can readily distinguish milk where
brewers grains are fed. by taste, smell. and
appearance; that they regard it as unfit for
use. and never knowingly buy from diaries
whose owners use them. OF this fact Mr.. MILES
can readily satisfy himself by consulting any
milk dealer who does u frst-class family trade.

Theirs and bismarck.

According TO NJ. de Longueval, NJ.
Theirs, who is better informed than any
one else in Paris concerning what passes
in Europe, is convinced that the war be-
tween Russia and Turkey Will not ex-
tend to the rest of Europe, and he thinks
that France has no reason to fear war
"this season or this summer" He re-
lated this anecdote about the "iron
prince" 1t was at Versailles, when tue
cold weather aggravated our grief. NJ.
Theirs was alone with the Prussian
chancellor in a badly warmed hotel
room, disputing conditions; and at the
end of a sharp discussion of three hours,
worn out with fatigue, he resumed his
arguments in a voice quite exhausted.
"You cannot go on, said NJ. Bismarck;
"you would do well to rest yourself a
little; here is a sofa; stretch yourself on
it, and sleep for a couple of hours, after
which we will resume negotiations. &"
"And you," said NJ. Theirs. "Oh l
have no time to rest, ;" replied the chan
cellor; "while you sleep L shall finish
some dispatches and look over my pa
pers." NJ. THEIRS was nearly asleep,
when NJ. Bismarck, perceiving that his
legs were not covered, and fearing lest
he should be cold, gently stretched a fur
cloak over him. Two hours later nego-
tiations were recommended.
