HELL FIRE.-The Manchester Ex-
aminer says that the Rev. William Inn
pey has resigned his office as General
Superintendent of the Wesleyan Mis-
sions in southeastern Africa. Some
time ago Mr. Impey wrote to the Mis-
sion Secretaries in London expressing
his inability any longer to enforce on
his brethren, or on the Kafir converts
of the Mission, the "plain grammatical
sense of the words in the Methodist
standards, which require it to be taught
that shell is dark and bottomless pit,
full of fire and birthstone, in which the
wicked will be punished for ever and
ever, by having their bodies tormented
by the fire and their souls by sense of
the wrath of God" At the request of
the secretaries he came to London and
conferred with them, and the result has
been that he was compelled to resign his
position. His connection with the Wes-
leyan Ministry has thus ceased after
serving as Missionary for 40 years.

MEANS WELL--A young theological
student sends us an item Of news which
is something of novelty in the way of
composition: He writes: "a young
man. named C--topher G-dfrry, re-
siding.at H-lertown, jumped off train,
rushed into restaurant, and called for
a dish of died crabs. After ap
peasing his hunger, he attempted to
board the train, which was moving of,
when he was dashed to the ground and
had his head badly d-maged" Our
correspondent means well, but his forte
doesn't lie in the direction of journalism.

McKillop &:Sprague's Agency.

NEw YoRK, July 24.-The Times to.
morrow will publish the following: Lester
L. CLARK, manager Of McKillop &
Spragues Commercial Agency, returned
from Boston yesterday morning. he
claims that the agency ID financially
sound, and said that 1t would continue as
usual. This assertion Is sustained by the
opinion Of those who are beat informed
In the matter.
Outside merchants who have paid their
subscriptions In advance or who have
past due claims in the hands Of the agen.
cy for collection have, on investigation,
become satisfied that everything Is all
right. The S4l5,000 which Tappan
advanced 10 the concern Is not
liability, the capital etock hay'
ing been increased three weeks ago
from 100000 to S500.000, and be
having accepted the surplusage in lieu
Of his claims. This stock is now, In the
hands Of his creditors, and their interest
lies in accepting the situation
as any other course would cause
q stoppage Of the earning pow
er Of the Sgency, which is Its only
available assets. Besides thousands Of
subscriptions having been paid in ad-
vance, a stoppage would give pretext
for the demands, aggregating probably
s50O,OO0 for unsatisfed balances which
the stockholders would be required to
meet. The expenditure Of Mr.. Tap.
pans four hundred and fifteen
thousand dollars has, no doubt,
placed the agency upon . firm
basis for the transaction Of buSi'
ness for some time at least, and there
must be alarge aggregate amount due il
in small sums from branch agencies and
as commissions from merchants for col
Iections made. This view Is taken Of the
case by business men generally, and ever
by rival agencies.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-The United
States Indian Agent at White Earth
Agency, Minnesota, writes the Commits.
pioner Of Indian Affairs under date Of
July 10Th, as follows: A reliable bali
breed, who has Just returned from visit
to Sisseton Agency, Dakota, says that
while there he met and conversed with
some Sioux Indians from Standing Rock
Agency. They were couriers sent With
tobacco from the Sioux Of the Plains to
invite the Sis.eton Sioux 10 join them in
hostilities against the whites; that already
eight different bands OF Sioux had joined
the confederation, and Sitting Bull him
self had made visit this summer 10
Standing Rock Agency, where he spent
three or four days, in disguise; also that
the Government had threatened 10 take
ponies from some OF the Sioux Indians
on the Missouri, which would be resisted
by all OF those trlbes, and that 8 general
Sioux war was imminent and would soon
be commenced. Whether there is any
truth in the statement made by the In.
dians from Standing Rock or not | cannot
tell, but they certainly made such a
abatement to a hall breed Of this reserve.
The officials Of the Indian Office consider
the above as purely sensational and en-.
tertain no fears Of the Sioux tribes join
ing in hostilities.

Ing about the circumstances Of his going
away BE was 10 remain at the hotel this
afternoon till probably 4 O'Clock, when he
expected some points would be reached
but what was going to be done or being
done, be was AMPLY waiting in painful
suspense. BE desired that the statement
Of Buffalo paper 10 the effect that he
and Miss Berry had been arrested be
contradicted, as there was no truth in It.
He said he came over TO Buffalo for the
purpose Of meeting the gentlemen with
whom he came back; had Travelled two
hundred miles with that aim, and there
had been no arrest or locking up whatev.
er. He said every cent Of the money
taken had been returned, and the 6rm Of
Markle 4 Sons had treated him very len
iently. He said, further, that when he
arrived 10 Buffalo he had locked all the
money he had in asatchel and given 1t to
Miss Berry, and that II be had wanted 10
get back 10 Canada he could easily have
done 80, or II the girl had wanted TO go
she could have escaped with the money.
he could not state as 10 whether the
amount reported as having been found
with him was correct or not.
In answer to question a. to what in.
duced him 10 return, he replied that any
one who Travelled In the position he was
could easily explain, besides he said, "No
American can live with those Canadians;
they will freeze you out anyway. / would
have returned before had gone any dis.
stance il could have done 40. II have
an opportunity" be said further, ~ will
show my friends, those Of them who can
sympathize with me in any way, that
what have done 10 fully repented. But
] believe it was moment in mans life
that is liable 10 come 10 any one.
Mr.. Markle also desires to correct an
impression conveyed by q statement in
Buffalo paper that Joseph Toliyer, Jr.,
was arrested, and was rather incorrectly
connected with the transaction. He says
that the gentleman has aided him greatly
in bringing about the present state Of al
fairs, and has always acted with him In
perfect faith. 49,

PARIS, July 24.-Gambette 10 inter
view, concerning the treaty Of Berlin, said:
10 my opinion II may be affirmed that
the Congress at Berlin has modified In
every essential way, the basis OF the un.
derstanding ot1s73, and I think France
has every reason to approve a change,
which modities the combinations formed
a part from her, II moi against her. The
change brought about in EuglAnds policy
Is another consequence, II not Of less i'm
portance, resulting from the Congress, on
which France cannot but congratulate
herself. In establishing herself
at Cyprus as an advanced guard, and in
constituting herself the protectress Of
the Asiatic interests Of Turkey. Eng.
land has abandoned that policy which !
shall call insular 10 resume her policy Of
watchiuluess on the continent. France
can not but hail this change with glad
ness. Things have returned to their log.
ical and natural course.
The interests OF France and England are
40 closely connected that the return Of
Englsnd 10. 4 less narrow policy
rescues the two states 1t the same
time from the temporary isolation into
which they CHANGED TO fall In
consequence Of the change brought
about by the Congress. The interests Of
England and Austria are identical In the
Est, The interests OF England and
France, already somewhat identical, have
become more 80, and | congratulate my
self in the name Of my country on
change which deem very fortunate and
very assuring for every one. / will not
enter further into detailed examination
Of the treaty, which should not be able
perhaps to approve 10 all Its parts, but
what have mentioned will prove to you
that I cannot be classed among those
who are adversaries OF the work Of tho
Berlin Congress.
