of the Rev. Louis S. Schuyler, rector of
the Church of the Holy Innocents, who vol
unteered and came to Memphis to assist his
brethren of the Episcopal ministry during the
plague, the New York World says: Mr..
Schuyler was the son of Rev. DR.. Montgom-
cry Schuyler, the rector of Christ church, st.
Louis. After graduating at Hobart college,
Geneva, he entered the ministry. He was
for some time an assistant to Bishop Doane
at ST. Peters church, Albany. He went to
England in 1867 and joined the Episcopal
brotherhood OF st. John the Evangelist at
Cowley, Oxford. Soon after his return to
this country last winter, be was called to
assist in the Church of the Holy Innocents.
On the first of July he took charge of the
House of Prayer in Newark, in the absence OF
the rector Dr. Goodwin, and had entered on
his duties at the Church of the Holy limo
cents only few days when the call from
Memphis came. 1t had been proposed to Mr..
Sword by the members of his congregation,
mostly people in moderate circumstances, to
present Mr.. Schuyler with a testimonial on
his return. His brother, NJ. Roosevelt Schuy-
Ter, left for the south on hearing Of his Ill

The EImWood Case.

From the Ledger of last evening we copy
the following letter, published by request of
Mr. George B. Peters, jr., in justice to Mr..
Samuel w. Phillips, superintendent of Elm
wood cemetery:
WALKER AVENUE, September %, 1873.
Nj. G. B. Peters, Jr.:
DEAR SIR have been down with the
fever since the tenth. My assistant, good
man, was taken about the fifteenth and died.
Wherein, John H. Lenow appointed MIR.
Stewart superintendent for the time being or
until ! got well. l have been just up and
about three days at home; about but not able
to attend cemetery work, nor will be until
the first of next month, if then. was deeply
grieved at the piece l read in this evening 8
Ledger, at the way my friend, B. K. PulIen 8
wife's interment was carried on. The poor
est perssn in Memphis would not have been
treated SO had l been on the ground Mr..
Stewart should have personally attended to
the funeral, as l should have done were
there. He is to blame to have a man that
used such language on the ground, and will
see that he is discharged. Il very smartly re-
gret the circumstances of the case, and send
my coincidence to Mr.. Pullen. Very re-
spectfully, SAM L W. PHILLIPS.
Superintendent of Elmwood.

COTTON.

There being no demand for cotton, no
prices are recorded at the Exchange. few
bales arrive and go to the sheds. Several of
the leading cotton and grocery houses have
been opened within the past few days by per-
sons who have had the fever. The cold
weather of yesterday caused several others
to make preparations for opening; and, In a
few days, number of frst-class houses will
be prepared to receive cotton and ship gro
ceries, provided the steamboats, and railroads
will receive the goods.

GENERAL ORDINANCES OF THE
CITY OF CANTON IN FORCE De
GENDER !, 1877,-PUBLISHED BY
ORDER OF The COUNCIL.

The above entitled book, making near
four hundred pages, has just been issued
from the Stark County DEMOCRAT estab-
lishment, and is pronounced by all a
credit to the publisher and credit to
the city. John c. Welty Esq, city solic-
itor, deserves all praise for the care and
labor he has bestowed in selecting and
preparing the ordinances in force and
in seeing that they were in shape to
stand all legal tests and John McGregor
deserves honorable mention in seeing to
the typography, quality of paper, and
general execution, arrangement and
make up of the work. The binding is
done by Messrs. Thurston of our city,
who take care to turn ont work in their
line equal to the best. Near four years
ago this job was awarded to the Stark
County DEMOCRAT establishment by a
City Council with majority Republican
this, too, when Mr.. T. W. Saxton was
an earnest bidder. Of course, our neigh
Dor did not like it, and does not seem to
have got over it, for the Repository in last
weeks issue contains two articles against
the bill rendered to the Council, which
is an exceedingly moderate one. 1t is
due to our neighbor Tom, however, to
state that he admitted in private, that it
is "damned cheap, and they amt making a
damned cent on Il The Vay Il u.s." Mr.. Sax
ton knows, andifa man is candid enough
to acknowledge the truth in private, it is
something to his credit, for it is not ev-
cry Cne that is thus considerate and can
did. 1t shows Tom is not quite totally
depraved, and that his editorial co'labor'
ers succeed in running the old Repository
much nearer to the precipice of total de-
pravity. We hope neighoor Tom will
talk to them with a view to conversion.
We are quite willing to aid in this good
work through the columns of the Demo-
cRAT, Toms terms would have run the
job up to about Thousand dollars"

The Republican members of the
House at Washington vigorously opposed
the Democratic proposition to investigate
the various Departments of the govern
ment, and the Republican journals ev-
erywhere also objected, Already itseems
they had good reason for opposing inves-
tigation. The House Committee on Ex.
penditures of the Navy Department, OF
which B. A. Willis. of New York, is
Chairman, has begun its investigation by
calling for statement of the indebted
ness of each bureau of the department
on the 1st of March, 1877, and the result
is that the Bureau of Steam Engineering
alone reports debt of over $3,OOO,00O.

THE Republican papers are publishing
an interview between Judge McLin, Of
Florida, and the Washington Post. In
the interview MCLin declares that Man
ton Marble said to him the night before
the Florida count commenced; "If you
will rise above party, and vote to
give the State to Tilden, there is nothing
within the power of the Democracy that
you can't have" McLin says this was
the only offer, or anything of that sort
that was made to him. In the New York
World Mr.. Marble publishes a letter in
which he goes into lengthy review of
the Presidential count in Florida, and
denies that he ever, as charged, made
McLin any promise of payment or pro-
motion whatever in behalf of Tilden or
the Democratic party. He says that if
