get excited over the divison of tho diocese.
Bishop Whi:tlo and msj,riy CT both clerical

possible; otherwise of tho election Of 90 assist
ant bishop. Blu; there is O strong minority,
active and determined, who ere pressing for
division. They cain that orc man caubos do
he episcopal work az il should DO done; that it
Is against the genius aud traditions Of tho
Church to havo I'm assistant bishop, man with
little authority, l,tl etc, CT Independence; that
Bishop Meade favored small diooeses, as can
DO sGoTn from the sermon preached by him at
The ordination Of Bishop Elliott, ct Georgia.
and furthermore that TIM rights OF this minority
should be reoogoz ID. IL is also fact that tho
growing uopopuIar,y Of Bishop White, cspo.
caily since his lato letter on howers aud sItar
cloths Tor tho ecclesiastical seasons, has mado it
advisable to cut the cioctss of Virginia 10 Two

Bishop Whlttle was wise, faithful, and devoted

character and above the average ability Of

the Bishop on tho quesiiJn CT division. 10 the
event of division of tho diocrs,. hc thought

Tho Toronto Globe says :

Il: is becoming morally c,ran that the
democrats have oulg to make good domination
and the presidency is theirs. Let the party
select s)ule standard bearer agar 81 whom the
cry Of sectonsli5m or The allegation OF personal
corruption can not be made and tho battle will
be half Wa before the real c)ot(s is entered
upon"
This is the opinion Of tisi1terested and in.
partial ou:cider. IL agrees with that of many
OF the ucs! 6ic,rpirg politicians Of this c,un.

State to deliberately destroy is effective
strength by division on a purely local issue
would be to:h too silly and too wicked to be
even thought Of by any apprecabe number of
Virginia democrats.

Burglary.

The residence of William A. Beers, the pho- tographer, 67 York street, in his fine brick block, was entered by burglars Tuesday night. In the morning about half-past six o'clock the domestic found both window and door open and the plated silverware gone. She imme- diately gave the alarm. An examination was made by MT. Beers. The sidsboard had been robbed of salver and ice pitcher, a cake basket, spoon holder with spoons, two gold lined goblets, @ ladle, forks and syrup cup. These were marked "B.," or 'C. J. B. Eight knives were taken from one of the drawers. These were almost new. The re- maining four were on the table, together with solid silver napkin rings and the domestic's pocketbook containing between $3 and $4. The burglar or burglars depended upon matches for light.
