BISHOP POTTER AND THE REMONS1RANCE
SEVERAL CLERGYMEN THINK THAT ITS PUBL
CATION DID NOT MEET HIS APPROVAL.

CATION DID NOT MEET HIS APPROVAL.
With reference to Dean Hofman's letter to Bishop
Potter published in The Tribune Of Saturday, the
Bishop has promised to append 1t to his charge, whom
printed in explanation Of his severe structures upon
the methods which he supposed had been adopted with
regard TO the publication of the Remonstrance" In
The Tribune before a copy had been received by the
chief ecclesiastical authority. The Bishop reminds
Dean Hoffman that there was nothing in his charge
from which it could be inferred that the Remon-
STRANGE" did not meet his approval.
The Tribune reporter has seen several Of the clergy
who signed the Remonstrance" and they are or
opinion that Bishop Potter implied in his address las
delivered in st. BarholOmews Church, that the action
of the 116 cergymen did not meet his official approval
The canons of the Protestant Episcopal Church OF
America rule that but duly licensed persons shall
ofciate I'm the churches Of that communion but this.
Il Is maintained, refers TO regular and not occa-
sional ministratons. Bishop Potter In the sermon
referred TO- was understood to say that if the canon
were applied to the ministers OF the Protestant
churches other than the Episcopal Church. 1t would
also exclude priests and bishops Of the Syrian, Ar
menian and Greek churches, who have been from time
TO time invited to minister to both the Anglican and
American Episcopal churches. To this the High
Church clergy reply that while they recognize the
orders OF the Syrian, Armenian and Greek clergy
they do not recognize those of the Presbytersns Con-
gregationallsts BaptistS and Unitarians.
The Rev. DR.. RalnsfOrd is understood to have said
that when he invited DR.. Lyman Abbott and others
TO take part in his Lenten services he did so with the
sanction of Bishop Potter. DR.. Stanger, who has
inst resigned from Holy Trinity Church, Harlem, was
also an offender in company with Dr. Newton. The
sinners of the Remonstrance" believe they have
awakened such degree Of interest in the matter
among church people that the clergy OF New-York
will be reluctant to offend during next Lent.
Tho Remons STRANGE" which was first published in
The Tribune was intended for public perusal and not
merely rs communication TO Bishop Potter, Tor the
Diocese of New York was not the only Diocese which

SECRETARY of State, A. j. Pinkham,
has unbosomed himself to the public,
on the penitentiary management and
affairs by publishing statement of
what he knows about them in the

penitentiary garbage over on to the
shoulders and back of General Rob

Our republican friends have begun
prospecting. Already they are look
ing at the lay of the land and are
hunting new men for state offices.
They are quietly discussing among
themselves, Curtis, Mcconnell and
Wells for Governor. This means that
they count the present State admins
tration disappointment and failure
without making the admission 10
words. But lhey do not hesitate to
make this admission; they talk freely
and boldly to the point. New men
are an absolute necessity for them,
and many of their leaders are in doubt
about the ability Of even new men
to save the party from signal defeat
That the entire party administration
of affairs has been failure from the
very beginning, the best informed
men of the party do not attempt to
deny. That the first legislature was
a travesty upon grave, dignified bod
les bearing that name is conceded by
the most intelligent members of that
body themselves. That the present
state officials have been a disappoint-
ment and failure we think no one
will have the hardihood and cheek to
deny or 10 rise up and speak in their
defence. Then well may it be counted
time to begin prospecting; to hunt
new men.

Forty-three teachers responded at

mar; J. s. Bonham, Theory and Prac-
tice; \. B. Cochran, Geography; L. l..
Elliott, Physiology.
The first subject presented was,
common fractions. which brought ont
a number of different theories as to
the best method to pursue in present
ing fractions to a class. The almost
unanimous opinion arrived at was
that if the subjects proceeding frac
tons be thoroughly mastered, frac
tons would be easily acquired. The
lesson was conducted in such way
as to convince all that no mistake had
been made in assigning the subject to
Mr Knapp.
The work in reading was next out
lined by Mr. Brandon as, follows
