Church Temperance Sunday.

NEW YORK, November 15.-Yes-
terday was "Caurch Temperance Sum
day" to the Episcopal denominatio on
throughout the lard, and serm ons
specially bearing upon the evils of in-
toxicants were preached from thous-
and5 of pui pits. In this diocese Bishop
DOane has circulated an address gned
by all the bishops Of the church, and
which concludes as follows: "The
concentration of thought and prayer
throughout our communion upon this
tremendous issue would tend to impress
its i'm poi tance upon the consciences of
men. And where it is possible, it is
hoped thst offerings will be taken at
the same time for the support of the
work Of the temperance societies. The
prayer thai the household of the church
may be kept in continual Godliness is
rot complete without the prayer that
it may be devoutly given to serve God
and good works."
