THuRsDAY EVENING, OCTOBER &c.

ST.. JAMES, HATcHAM.-The facts dis
closed at the Police court at Greenwich are
significant commentary upo2 the effects o.
Ritualism. The treasurer Of the Committee
of the School Building for Girls and Boys OF
St. James, Hatoham, appeared in respect to
summons for rates which had been served
UPON the sehoolmistress. He explained that
the subscriptions Of the 2sEishioncrs had fallen
off SO much that the boys school had been
closed, and there was no money Whatever IN
hand. The fact is. the supporters OF these
extreme Rituaistic churches are, for the most
part. non parishicnars, as vas proved in the
case of St. James, Hatcbsm, BY the great
majority who voted for the church warden o!p'
posed to the practices carried on IN tue
church. These congregations, composer pin
cipalIy of young men and women: attracted ~
the music, and liking the ornate character OF
the service, have not tie same interest IN shc
schools and other parish institutions that Is
felt by the Inhabitants of the plsce. These.
kept away from their parish church by p'ac'
tees which they consider as Pap!stlca, nat
urally object to subscribe to the schools, ana
the result is an application such ss that made
at Greenwich. There sre other schools N
London in the same state as that of Hatcham,
and from the Same causes. We think that 1t
could be asserted that there does not exist 2
single distinctly Ritualstic church in the re
tropolis which could claim that its congrega-
ton was composed mainly Of parlshioners, or
where the practices would not be enphatically
condemned we're the question decided by the
votes Of the househo!ders of its neighborhood.
This being the case, it is little wonder that the
schools should lsnguish; and this would be
seen more palpab!y than it really is were It
not for the fact that many among the Ritual
istic cergymen are men Of private property,
who spend their whole income upon the in
stitutions which they have founded. Of the
discretion or the wisdom of the extreme Rlt-
uslistic clergy there may be grave doubts, but
even those most opposed to them must admit
their earnestness, devotion and charity

He SAID he wasn't an xious, but he had the cash

And reminded me that nowadays cash sales
are very rare.
The farm amt worth much, anyway, the soil
is mighty thin,
And tn crops it yields are hardly worth the

Besides that pesky railroad that they're put

For he did the work OF three hired n:1n in spite

No. no, I'm not afeard of work-of that don't
I've tried to work with willin' hands in sun

times, maybe,
When them giddy, headstrong steers O. mine
would "haw" when yelled "gee!"
Perhaps it may be sinful for a mortal to find
With loiling hard both day and night, if he

But I've thought while cradlin' rain lodged

I'd like to lead
A peaceful, blameless kind of life, from all
temptations freed
But as long as Hessian flies exist and tater bugs
abound,
There'll he some tall profanity at times float
in round.
So, now if you're agreed. Jane Ann, I'll sell the
farm to Jones
He'll find that what it lacks in soil is well made

Woodford on Eternal Damnation.

New York, Oct 1l.--At the semi an
nual session of the New York Synod of
the Reformed Episcopal Church in the
Church of the Redemption, yesterday, a
breeze was created by Layman T. Wood
hull. who in a resolution desired that the
Synod should express itself emphatically
on the subject OF eternal punishment for
those who die iii sin. Elk Governor Stew
art L Woodford. who. as Vice President,
was presiding, vacated the chair and op
posed the resolution on the ground that
God never intended that man should
endure a never-ending punishment for
His own glorification. He asserted that
all the Master desired was that men
should have firm belief in Christ and
live in harmony.
The discussion on the other side was
strengthened by Rev Drs. Sabine, Smith,
Lacock and others in warm and earnest
language. Mr.. Woodford took the floor
again and remarked that if the resolu-
ton was passed it would cause the sever
ance OF his official connection with the
Synod. 1t being evident that the pass
age Of the resolution would cause Mr.
Woodford to resign the office of Vice
President, several of the clergy made it
appear that the resolution applied to
ministers and teachers, and that, although
Mr. Woodford differed, he could con-
scientiously remain in office. Mr.. Wood
food replied that he looked upon it as a
conscientious duty, and that it would be
wholly inconsistent for him to be the
second officer of body that would pass
a resolution SO contrary to his judgment
| and belief.
An effort was made to lay the resolu-
ton on the table, but 1t was lost. 1t
was then moved that the further discus
