following addressed to Bishop Harris by

society, who was in Syracuse attending

he is better, but he is very feeble. He

nnce."
This authoritive statement doubtless
settles the matter that the Vermont con-
ference must be assigned to the charge Of
another bishop.
We respectfully nominate Bishop Simp-
son and the changing of the appointment
to April 18th.
Bishop Simpson is to preside at the New
Hampshire conference at Concord com.
mencing on April 18th, and will be within
convenient distance of St. Adams.
Bishop Simpson presided at the only
session of the Vermont conference in St
Adams. in 1868 and would be welcomed
again after twenty years by most graft
fed people.
His sermon at the conference of 1868 is
still mentioned In the state as never to
be forgotten specimen of unequalled
pulpit oratory.
Vermont Methodism fully appreciates
the individual worth of all the bishops
but if Bishop Simpson ever comes to our
conference again, Il must necessarily be

The latest failure OF clerical bankers is
that OF the "Augustinian Society,"" at
Lawrence, Mass.-a failure which repeats
in its main features that of Archbishop
Purcell, though much less disastrous than
his. 1t appears that for nearly forty years
the Lawrence Roman Catholic priests have
been in the habit of receiving deposits
from their Pensioners, issuing books
therefor, paying interest, and, in short,
assuming all the functions OF a savings
bank. In 1870 thev were Incorporated
under the name Of the Augustinian Society.
As is the usual outcome of such an
undertaking, this society has now failed,
owing $40 900, of which S430,000 is due
its depositors. More than this, it now
appears that the priests, in their efforts
to avert the failure, have mortgaged the
churches, parochisl residences and educa.
tional institutions for amounts aggregating
over $4,000. As was to be expected,
the depositors in the society are, the
telegraph announces, mostly poor women
and girls, domestics and factory operatives.

A STRANGE INCIDENr.-Oa the Friday
morning before his death Marshall Jewell
awoke from a sound sleep. and inquired
what was the matter at the residence OF
William E. Dodge-his daughters father
in law. the famous New York merchant.
Mr.. JEWELS family had just received a
telegram announcing the sudden and
unlocked for death of Mr.. Dodge; but it
was not deemed best TO let him know that
any snch thing had happened, and be was
therefore told that all was we'll In Mr..
Dodge's family. He said no, that could
not possibly be; something serious had
happened; the family were in great
trouble if not actual affliction; he knew in
a way which, if not applicable, was
nevertheless as clear and certain as if be
saw it. Insisting upon this, and refusing
to accept his family's denals, he at length
induced them to telegraph TO New York
to see what was the matter. But Mrs.
Jewell so worded the telegram as TO
instruct those who received it to answer
that everything was all right. When that
answer came, they told it to Mr.. Jewell,
who refused to believe it. and at last
asked them TO let him see the message
itself. This request being grained. and
having the ocular proof before his eyes, in
the shape of an unmistakable western
union telegraph message, he obviously
remarked well, it does seem to be so !;
but it is very strange; I know there is
something the mater, that something
serious has happened in Mr.. Dodge's
house in New York" And that impression
he retaiued, until so soon afterward he,
too, ended his earthly life. He survived
Mr.. Dodge only about So hours. His
feeling that something serious had
happened" was apparently as clear and
strong as it would have been had he
personally witnessed the death of his
relative. How did he know ite-Eartford
