was in the battle of the Wilderness, Spottsyl

He was wounded April I'd, 1860, at Pet

bravery He stood ON the wall at Spottsyl-

Bishop Halls Conservation.

An event which is fraught with deep
interest for all Episcopal churches in YER
mont as well as for the Protestant Epis-
copal church in general throughout the
United States and England, is the consecra-
ton of the Rev. Arthur {. \. Hall, d. D..
as bishop of the diocese of Vermont The
wide extent of the interest attending this
ceremony results in part from the fact that
one of the noble men of the church in Eng
land was selected for this position, but it is
also to be attributed to the high calling of
the office itself as we'll the recognized
ability and lovable character of him who
has been chosen to discharge its sacred func
tons.
There was a time when a solemn service
of this character and Importance would have
had little interest except or tho members
of the immediate church concerned; but it
speaks much for the advancement of the
common cause Of Christianity and the in
creasing recognition of the full meaning of
brotherly love that the induction Of Bishop
| Hall into official position as head of the
! Episcopal church in Vermont is regarded
with deep interest by all denominations
The spirit of liberation has begotten feel
ing akin to Christian fellowship to a greater
or less extent in all churches, and while
there is II vast difference in
| the manner in which various
denominations respond to this influence,
it is gratifying that the point has been
reached where all recognize the fact that
the increased spiritual and material welfare
of any one church means the advancement
| of the whole community. Every church
makes its influence felt through the medium
of its members upon those in its vicinity
who have no connection with it, and the ex
| tent and value of that influence is largely
determined by its character. Considera-
tions of this nature undoubtedly account in
part for the genuine interest which has been
manifested by people of all denominations
throughout the State in the accession of
| Bishop Hall to the diocese of Vermont
Rev. DR.. Hall is the third bishop OF
| Vermont, his predecessors having been the
strong, fearless and gifted Bishop Hopkins,
and the revered Bishop Bissell, whose beau,
tiful life was in itself an inspiration to all
with whom he came in contact. That Bish
op Hall will exert strong influence through
out the diocese is evident from the place which
he has Won in the affections OF those Ameri
cans who have already enjoyed the pryile9,
of knowing him, and that he will make al

DEFENSELESS STATE OF AMER
lCAN HARBORS.

Just as the Notifications appropriation
is coming up in Congress General Miles is
heard in Boston on the defenseless state of
our harb nrs. He is of opinion that there
is not single harbor on the Atlantic
Coast in position to resist the attacks of
modern fleet, and that there is not city
which could not be placed under tribute.
Surely this IS ultTa-alaTmist Oratory. 'fhe
strength Of countries to-day is not in fixed
Notifications, but in movable ones in the
shape Of first-class navy and great num-
bers of fast torpedo-boats. Harbors are
much more effectively protected by SUBJ
marine mines, properly laid. with electric
attachments and observa ton stations, and
by dirigible torpedoes, than by any struc-
lures in stone and mortar or of steel. The
facility with which vessels pass in and
out Of Rio harbor only shows that it is
not mined pros eEly and that the batteries
DO not work together. Land defenses are
not. however. to be des ised. We need
the batteries at the entrance TO San Fran
cisco harbor, and they ought 10 be COM
pleted and kept in efficient order. De-
lenses are also requisite in Puget Sound
But when everything is considered we
need an augmentation of naval strength
much more than shore fort fcations,

FARMING MACHINERY.

A Chicago writer attributes the low price
of wheat largely to The more extended use
of Am erican farm machinery abroad. In
1893 Argentine imported such machinery
to the amount of S1.703. 236, an increase of
S400.000 over the preceding year. Austria
liza also increased her imports and British
America jumped up from sos. 222 in 1892 to
S242, $50 in 1893. Great Britain has also
constructed railways in India more for the
purpose of getting wheat to the sc aboard
chea ly than for military purposes. A
Chicago journal imagines that Great Brit
ain has been impelled to this course by the
unfrieDdlv commercial policy pursued bv
this country under Republican rule. 1t is
quite possible that if the United States bad
continued to import British finished GOODS
free Of duty Great Britain would have
been less energetic in developing its own
agricultural resources. But the United
States could not afford to purchase tile
British market at such price. 1t is BEL
ter for us to consume our wheat at home
than to export il a any price. 10 a very few
years, il the manufacturing interests OF
this country are properly encouraged,
there will be no surplus wheat to export.
When that time comes our wheat-growers
will be relieved from competition with
the cheap labor of India ana Russia and
the cheap lands of Argentine and Austria
liza. We will put duty on wheat as we
now do on steel rails and let home compe.
tirion determine the price.

THE BL AND BILL.

The public in general may not be
familiar with the provisions of the Bland
bill. which passed the House on Monday
by vote of 16S to 129. The bill directs
the Secretary of the Treasury to issue
certificates TO the amount of $50, 600, 600, to
represent the seigniorage of the bullion
purchased under the Sherman act of 1890.
AS fast as that bullion was purchased the
treasury issued notes 10 represent the sum
paid for it at the market price of that day.
The difference between the amount of
silver bullion which would be contained in
silver dollars enough 10 redeem those
notes and the amount of silver bullion
purchased by them exceeds S55. GOO. 600 In
silver dollars. This difference the House,
on the motion of Mr.. Bland. has decided
to coin. and also the remaining bullion as
fast as possible, certificates for which will
be used to take the place of the notes
issued under the act of 1890.
The bill passed by a sectional rather
than a party vote. II was supported
mainly bv members from the West and
South, and opposed by the members from
the North ana East. Its supporters con-
sisted Of al Democrats, 10 Republicans
and Pnpullsis; against it were 20 Repub-
iicans and 80 Democrats. 1t derived its
strength from it being regarded as a
measure to help the Government iu meet
ing current expenses by an increased use
of silver
Of the fate of the measure in the Senate
it is not easy 10 speak with confidence.
The South and West com biued have votes
enough to carry the bill, but the leaders
of the Southern Democracy. Carlisle,
Mills, Wilson, and their friends, are Old.
posed to it. Whether they can control
their colleagues on a measure of this kind
is doubtful. The Republicans from the
States identified as the silver States will
probably be guided by the demands of the
silver men among their constituents.
There are thirteen Republican votes in
the Senate from California. Nevada, Colo
RADIO, Montana. Idaho and the Dakotas; if
these unite with the Southern Democrats
the bill should pass.
The President has allowed it 20 be
known that he is opposed 10 it, but the i'll
fortune which has attended his recent
demonstrations in the way of self-assser-
ton has probably discouraged him, and lie
may not feel inclined to set his view
against those of Congress on matter of
general policy.
