Hartford Post: There is deep sig
nificance in such language coming
from southern leaders, and 1t imposes
upon the public men Of the north a
duty which they cannot decently
avoid. The efforts OF the president
must be seconded and sustained. Let
1t be seen that the president speaks not
merely for himself and his administra-
ton, but that his extended hand typi-
fies the feeling of the whole north, and
the old prejudice and bitterness will
begin to pass away. Nay, they have

Hub.
Boston, October 3.-The annual con-
vention of the Episcopal church OF the
United States, opened with vast con-
course of people present long before
the services began. The audience was
composed OF Episcopalians only. The
moring was devoted entirely to relig-
ious services. The sight which the
church presented from the beginning
to the close Of the exercises were such
as probably has never been seen before
in the city. The ritual OF this morn
ings service was, OF course, from the
high position of the dignitaries con-
Quoting it, the most impressive and
elaborate which the Episcopal church
has. The body of the church was re-
served for the delegates to the general
convention and these consisted of four
clergymen, and four lay deputies from
each of the forty-live diocese's in the
different sections OF the country. Be-
sides there were over two hundred

men rs unfit to discharge the duties Of
the position, has again been elected
to the office.
The Derby correspondent of Leeds
Mercury, says Midland is the railway
defrauder. The fraud has been syste-
matically carried on by some of its
officers holding places of responsibility,
in whom the utmost confidence was
placed. The principal means by
which the company has been defraud-
ed has been by persons erecting pri-
vate dwelling houses and other build
iugs, both for themselves and other
people, with material belonging to the
company. Several Of the delinqueDts
are in prison, and 1t Is said, 1t Is rumor-

The enormous forest fires In Algiers
caused loss OF many millions to the
French government. In fleeing from
the flames, beasts of prey and beasts
on which they habitually preyed, ran
side by side, the former without
thought OF molestation, and the latter
without fear. An Arab said that he
saw from an eminence, II lion In an
open space, surrounded by flames. He
roared, dashed his sides with his tail,
and In vain sought an escape. Final
ly, he ran into the flames.

Baltimore Gazette; The government
is asked to do nothing for the south,
west that it has not already done for
the west and northwest, There can be
no doubt that the rapid and splendid
development Of the far west by the
Union Pacific road has contributed
powerfully to the wealth Of the whole
country. The fact that the west and
northwest have been thus developed
makes a similar development of the
southwest a matter of simple justice
and vast importance to the whole
union.
