PASTORAL LETTER
Of the Episcopal Bishops to the Church
A Cheerful Ont OOIx.

PHnADELPHIA, October 27.-The pasto-
raj letter read before the Episcopal Con-
vention last night was an interesting doc
ument After speaking cheerfully on the
condition OF the Church at home, and its
mission work in foreign lands, the letter
continues, treating OF emigration, and
says: 'In citation OF this convention,
taking measures to provide Christian care
for the immense mass of European emil
grants daily arriving at our seaports and
lake ports, and distributed over the conti-
nent, there is pointed out line of useful
ness peculiar to our condition, open to
clergy and laitv alike"
The bishops next take up the question
of the desecratiOn OF marriage VOWS, and
handle it roughly. Public schools are
also referred to, and great care in their adj
ministration is advocated. Continuing
the letter says: Thinking and studying
men, who are also believers, are every
where looking for the grounds of Chris
tianity. 1t is the glorious hope of our time,
and we hold that the vantage ground is
with us. Recently, as a fit prelude to
broader affiliation of fellowship between
the mother Church and ourselves made
more vital and more conscious than ever
before, welcome visits of have been made by
beloved brethren of the English bench to
our councils and our homes" The letter
ends i'm triumphant reference to the sue
cess of the Church, spiritually and finan-
ciallV.
