Double Sheet Star.

In recognition of the very liberal advertis-
ing patronage extended TO 1t, and in order to
preserve the proper balance between adver-
tisers and readers, THE STAR will be pub
lisbed next Saturday in double-sheet or
eight page form. As these double-sheet
issues always have an exceptionally large
circulation, both in the city and through the
mails. on account OF the large quantity and
excellent variety of reading matter they con-
tain, and as we will then have some spare
space at command for displayed advertise
ments, an excellent opportunity will thus be
afforded those who have special business
announcements TO make to reach an unusu-
ally wide circle OF customers, both at home
and abroad.
In all the qualities that go to make up a
frst-clsss newspaper and advertising me-
dunn THE STAR is absolutely without a
rival, as the public very well understands,
and IL is the determination of its publishers
that this supremacy shall always be main
tanned.

The General Convention of the Protestan,

The General Convention of the Protestant
Episcopal Church OF the United States as
sembled in Boston yesterday. Though the
session is not likely TO be marked by any
such exciting feature as that of the contest in
the last general convention over the ritual
Ism OF DIR. De Koven and Dr. Seymour. there
are still several matters of large interest to
De dealt with. The question of changing the
name OF the church from the Protestant Epts-
copal 10 one that better expresses its real
character, will come up. 1t is maintained
Dy those who object TO the present name, that
The church is a branch OF the church Catho.
Ie; It's ministry, as they claim, being In I'M
deniable succession from the Apostles, and
they argue that the name ought 10 coaform
thereto Though the change OF name will
nave eloquent advocates, il is Lot believed
that IL will be carried at this session at
least.
An effort will probably be made to shorten
and simplify the service so as to afford more
scope for the sermon. II is complained that
the elaborate length OF the present seryic.
reduces the sermon To q bare homily instead
OF allowing IL room TO be a main feature of
the worship. Here, again, the objectors will
PROBABLY fail to carry their point, just yet,
as the large body OF the Episcopalians are
much attached TO the present service, from
association and on account of its intrinsic
beauty.
Among the other subjects that will occupy
the attention OF the convention will be the
grouping OF the dioceses into synods for
greater convenience in church work; matters
or Christian education; courses of theoIoei-
cal study; the relations of the church with
the Eastern church, the old Catholics, the
Jensenists OF Holland and others, and the
canon instituting deaconesses

Philadelphia has, also, the problem On
hand what to do with the workingmen out
of employment Mr.. Joan Gibson a beuey
client citizen, proposes the formation OF a
joint stock company, say at ten dollars a
share, for the purchase OF cheap lands In
New jersey and Pennsylvania. and to give
employment to the destitute in the city in re-
claiming these waste lands and increasing
their value. He says there are 100 900 PEG
PIE In Philadelphia VINO give at least ten
dollars year away in charity, wno, IL they
ohIy LOOK one share each, would raise one
million dollars as a capital TO start with-a
fund sufficient to make a beginning of the
good work TO be done, and nobody the
poorer. The name he suggests for the COM
pany is 1.-The Society for the Promotion of
Industry" and its motto Nothing Without
Labor"
Were such q scheme to be entered uoou In
This city there Is an abundance of reclaim
able land within twenty miles of Washing
Ion, much better than the run OF New JERSEY
land, that can be bought for ten dollars an
acre, or less But there are also nurn bars of
owners Of Maryland and Virginia lands who
would gladly employ the destitute lab,ring
men who are now afloat In Washington.
This state Of facts Is now presented: while
There are thousands OF able bodied man loaf

how TO bring them together.
