of the gvrexnment measure and signed by
them all collectively. Usually each bishop issues
his own pastoral which treats OF matters connected
with the spiritual wants of the diocese. and con-
cludes as all such documents do with directions how
to eat meat. butter. eggs and grease. What seemed
mostly to excite their wrath the provision
made for giving religious instruction out of school
hours. which they spoke of piece of trckery too
transparent to take them in. Should the bill be
passed las it has been) the members of the Church
were told that they would have very painful duty
to perform. and would be called upon to make
heavy sacrifices. besides having to conform TO
such rules of conduct as circumstances may render
necessary. These rules of conduct were to be only
to send their children to schools patronized by
the clergy. and the sacrihces referred to
the fund for the establishment and main
tenance Of religious schools throughout. the
country. it be really intended to carry out this
project on such scale to enter into serious
petition with the government schools . larger sum
of money will be required than there Is much
chance of collecting. Had the clergy been
less ambitious of securing the whole control
over schools, schoolmasters and children had they
not in many ways made themselves unpopular,
things might have continued the former footing.
Only q few years ago the very Ministers who have
brought in the bill among the strongest parti
sans of the law of 1842 and strenuousy opposed all
proposals to modify it. They have changed their
opinion in consequence Of the altered attitude OF the
clergy. and even now they anxious not to place
any obstacle in the way Of the children receiving
religious instruction.

terial This particularly the case in rough
weather. The tugs of the Police Departments also

claimed that serious results would ensue from de-
posting 1000 to l50O tons Of ashes in that vicinity
daily. aud that they would soon make themselves
apparent. The Board instructed Secretary Nash to
notify the Police Commissioners of these charges,
and to request them 10 take steps to prevent the

Josiah Hummel. Drews and stichler the proven
murderers direct. Drews is about sixty-hve
years old. He sits erect. chews tobacco
and displays emotion whatever. He is the
father of number OF children His daughter and
his on.in-law were the witnesses who condemned
him, testifying that old Raber left Drews' house
with Drews and Stchler. and that these two men
threw old Raber into a creek 100 yards from the
house and held him under the water until life
was extinct. Sticher Is but twenty-one years
old. He is Of very boyish appearance.

and passes all his time in Jail in reading the Bible
Both yesterday aud to-day the court room has been
crowded.
Messrs. William NJ. Derr. CABIN. Nelly Lantz
and Mark addressed the Court yesterday, OBJ
jecting to the conviction OF the four
other than Stichler and Drews Of murder,
when by the testimony they only should
have been charged accessories before the fact and
on behalf OF the two men it was claimed that the
testimony against them untrue. and the princi-
pal witness, Peters, held bitter sentiment OF jealous
animosity against Stichler. Messrs. Wedeman and
Miller to-day made the argument for the Common

all the men were convicted. and that the evidence
was of character which could not be impeached.
