that every State in the Union, with the SIM

books Sunday law of some kind. In GEL

lay of the week, commonly called Sunday
(excepting works of necessity or charity,
the transaction of ordinary mercantile bust

keeping open of dram shops, and travelling
in vehicles for business or pleasure, with

High Church " Ideas.

The late DIR. James De koven Wa one
of the ablcst and best of the Episcupaliln
clergy, and was extremely High Church
in his views, but the accounts of the cclc-
bra1ion of Il requiem mass. for " the re-
nose of his soul are somewhat surprising.
One of these accounts says: " At o'clock
about 500 worshippers were in their places.
Lamps, banners. and cruciIixe- We're dis
PLAYED: the high altar was draped with
black: thirty candles were lighted, ANA
same sanctuary lamps hung from the high
arch of the clancel. Forty chorStorS sang
the introduction to Cherubinis mass in ID
minor. Then Fathers Prescott, Maturn
and Danvers Convers emerged from Il door
ut the side Of the sanctuary and proceeded
TO the altar where they stood and rectcd the
EArie EleisOn From this time the oificllt
ing rlergymen gave an almost Identical re-
nrolnction of the Roman Catholic requiem
mass except that no incense was uSc".-
Father Prescott was ROBBED i'll an alb, aimee,
and chasuhle, the latter being of black
material. Father Maturin, as deacon,
wore no clas,lilr, hut had a stole amice on,
and Father Convers, the sub-deacon, wore
nothing above his amicc and alb. The SER
vices were those of the Protestant Episcopal
Church. with certain musical features
During portions of the service the congre"a-
| ton rose and many of the worShipperS cross
| ed themselves. In the communion service,
| Father Prescott held alott Il wafer of hread
| and simultaneously he and the deacon mad"
| the sirn of the cross. While the elements
were held up three male members advanced
| from the body of the church to commune III
behalf of the congregation. After describ-
| ing the cross to each of these, the celebrant
rave the blessing as il is given by the Roman
Catholic priest in mass, and, while the
choir chanted, the Fathers departed from
| the thancel, and the congregation slowly
left the church." Why should these
spriests" stop short of the Church of
| Rome

Mr.. Moody's Work.

\ Baltimore correspondent of the fo'J-
grcGatio"olisf, writing of Mr.. Moody's work
in that city, says: Gone of the marvel;
about him is his body Besides his six hours
Il day for study, he has performed labor
enough to kill half Il dozen ordinary men,"
At the beginning of the year Mr. Moody
held five daily services, some of which
must have been briet; during the succeed
ing months he has held four daily services.
One of these meetings was for men only, in
DIR. Leyburn's church, at four O. clock in the
afternoon, and had uniform attendance Of
two thousand. Mr.. Moody has also prcacl,-
ed c;ery Sunday to the convictS in the State
Pen:tentary, with good results In CO.
operation with him, the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union have held daily noon
meetings at the Maryland Institute, where
the attendance has averaged twenty-five
hundred In the work OF the past winter
Mr.. Moody has tried the experiment of dis
penSing with the large tabernacles which
have been in other winters prepared for him.
He has, instead, used churches as centres.
The experiment has succeeded well. Mr.. +.
w. Bliss, his co-laborcr, will remain in Bal
tinore for year, and will devote himself
to the care of the reformed men who have
become converts TO Christianity.

.tLENAEDEG D'fi!NoYOSSA,


We learn froi.l Ninccnt'S History of Della
ware, that D'Iiinoyossa was induced to
write this letter of explanation and apology
by information received from Augustine
Herman, who, that year, settled upon 30
hernia Manor, and seems to lave acted as I,
pcacp-mailrr between the old Ho!iantlrr ana
Philip Calvert. Herman wrote to D'Hino-
yoSSa that the English foster the opinion
that the inhabitants of New -tnStcl (Ncw
Castlr) and the Hncrnl>iil secretly in>tigttc
their savage nrighbors' along the Delaware
to commit murders and robbcGic,; upon the
Marylau,l"rs, whose settlements at that
time Were continnI to 4 few place; ut the
head of chesapeake bay and along the Elk
and North Etst rivers. The instructions
given to Captain Odber prove that i'll this,
as i'll most other things, Herman WIS right.
After which WAS called in Abraham Van
Haas, in the said letter mentioned, who,
being desired to declare what he had in com
mission to say from the Governor, AlcNan-
der Dfinoyos>l, declares that they had
done their cndeavorS to tietain the Indian
murders. nut coulu hoI, l'f want Oh power

said murder, and demanded of them the
reason why they did it. Answer wis made
TINT it was done by a company of vlgahond

At the meeting ut SpeSutia Island, re-
terred to in the last chapter, Il letter was
read to the Council from William HollingS-
worth, directed to his most respected friend,
Col. Nathaniel Ute from the Sand Point, in
Delaware bay, written some time in April,
1861, about the murder of four men who left
the Sand Hook on the 18th of April and
whose names he did not know, but who were
murdered hy the Indians while on their way
from Sand Hook (New CASTLE to the head
of the bay, and whose bodies, he had been
informed by the Indians, lay at 4 place called
Saquoschum. Twenty Indians had come to
Sand Hook, and he had caused two of them
to be arrested and placed in the guard house,
but afterwards sent one of them to inform
their Saclem. Both Dutch and Indians, he
writes, are much diSpleased at the arrest Of
the Indians. He therefore asks the advice
of Utic. and prayS that some person may he
sent to inquire further into the matter In
Il postscript, he adds that the Indians threat
ened to killed some Engli>hmcn, then at the
Sand Hook, when they started home to their
families in Maryland.
Philip Calvert thereupon, on the 10th of
May, 1861, addressed Il letter to Alexander
D'HinoyoSSa, then Governor of New Am
Stel. as follows:
