will have to come before tho ordinarily
intelligent citizen can grasp and I'M

shall. or who shall not, turn flowing

Still. while We nmuse ourselves with

Lord Chief Justice Coleridge,
who has recently been on Il visit
to this country as a guest of the
New York Bar Association, has
done some rude things that has
subjected him to just criticism.
At the same time, his many utter
ances of appreciation Of America
and American institutions, will
ever make his name honored by
Americans. In one of his
speeches, in speaking of our boast
ed wealth, he said:
1t is not your great fortunes
that have attracted me here. There
are fortunes almost as great in
England as here. Millions of gold
sovereigns or millions of golden
dollars are alike confusion to me
and do not interest me. But it
seems TO me that Americas crown
ing glory Is that it Is i country of
homes. The solid content and
satisfaction bred By the fact that
the farmers lands arc his OWN, the
merchant and the professional man
generally own their own houses
and the cottage of the artisan be-
longs to him. England aud
America are absolutely irresist-
able III the world.
Upon another occasion he said:
You have paid a price not paid
by any other nation in your great
struggle for the preservation OF
the Union. 1t has shown you to
be 4 nation nobly, grandly, indis-
putably great.
Such sentiments, falling from
the lips of England's chief justice,
are in striking and refreshing con-
trast with the ut.erances of the
supercilious sno5s who come here
determined 70 see only something
to condemn.

The OREGON Pioneers.


The New York SIN thus de-
scribes the arrival OF the Oregon
pioneers in that city: "a party of
ruddy-faced buxum women, robust
girls, and blooming babies arrived
in jersey City on a special train
over the Pennsylvania Railroad
last evening. The men wore
broad-brimmed, soft hats and were
loaded down with luggage. Their
wives all carried satchels or babies.
The men said they were Oregon
pioneers who settled in the Web
foot state prior to 1854. They had
come here with their families to
have a good time, and would re-
turn TO the West in month or so.
Their party was known as the Ore
gon Association, and was 900
strong when it left Portland, Octo-
Der Sd, but desertions at Chicago
and other points OF interest, re-
duced it to III. The organization
numbers several thousand, and has
for its object the promotion of fel-
lowship among early settlers. OF
IFS members, two-thirds are farm
ers. and the rest are Storekeepers,
lawyers and doctors"

Improvements in St. James Church.

During the last few months the above
named Episcopal Church, in this city, has
been greatly improved and beautifed by the
addition of a recess chancel, - by IA feet,
made by charging the arch so as to inclose
the whole of the old vestry room, and other
improvements, such as the replastering of
the ceiling of the church, the walls and
ceiling beautifully tinted with alabastne,
the pews, galleries and other wood wook
repalnted and finished with "oil finish =
an elegant stained glass window in the west
end of the church, feet wide by 10 feet
high, with a smaller one on the north side
A new vestry room has also been built Of
stone, similar to the walls of the church, on
the south side of the new chancel A stone
wall has been put up on part OF the front
of the church lot, which will soon be sup
plemented by neat railing, thus enclosing
the entire premises. These additions and
improvements make this church one Of the
most attractive places of worship in the
city, and the parish is to be congratulated
that the whole work has been done without
mourning any debt.
In this connection, we have been request
ed to publish the following resolutions OF
the vestry at their last meeting:
Resolved, That the thanks OF the War
dens and Vestry of St. James Church, for
themselves and the parish are hereby ten
dered to Rev. S. J Pnkerton, our Rector,
for the zeal, energy and perseverance dis
played by him, in raising the larger part of
the funds required, and in giving his con-
slant personal attention and supervision TO
