The Bishop Apoiogized.

DR. Temple was wont to rule the do
cese of Exeter with AN iron hand, and q
tale is told of deaneIy meeting ut
which he presided. when the subject for
discussion was "Tho Hindrances TO the
Spiritual Life of the Diocese 5" After the
discussion had proceeded for some time
vicar electrified his audience by de-
clarmg that the greatest hindrance to
the full spiritual life was none other
than the bishop himself. II repeat it, "
said the speaker calmly, "our right rev.
erond father in God is very far from be-
ing father to any of us. Your manner
toward us. he continued. turning to
the bishop. lis harsh in the extreme,
while your method eff rule is this: You
treat us all, old and young, as if we
We're set Of schoolboys. " This bold
statement drew from the bishop an apol-
ogy. and he explained that beneath his
brusqueness Of manner was n very gen
nine sympathy with the work of all the
clergy. This Impeachment created the
more sensation in the meeting because
it came from SON of DIR. Temple S pred.
ecessor. the famous Henry of Exeter. -

A curious incident of the closing
scenes of the American Civil War is
related by correspondent of II st.
Louis newspaper. After General
Grant had received General Lees
terms of surrender mt AppomattoX and
accepted them, some one-not General
Grant ordered the firing of II salute
Of one hundred guns in token of vic
tory. The salute General Grant quick
ly stopped, as he wished that every
means should be taken to spare the
sensibilities OF the brave men who had
| surrendered, The proceedings went
on quietly and the surrender was
completed All was over, and peace
had succeeded war. when strange
and irregular fusillade of muskctry
was heard from the field of battle
More than that the air about the field
was filled with whiStling bullets What
had caused II rc-Opcning of hostiliticS?
Simply this the muskctS of the Con
federatc soldiers had been allowed TO
remain stacked on the field So sud
denly had the fighting ceased on the
morning of the 9th of April that thous-
nnds of pieces We're left loaded. In
some way the dry spring grass on the
field caught fire. and the blaze ran
amongst the stacked guns. They were
heated to the point of explosion, and
soon the fuslllndc began. Most of the
pieces We're pointed upwards, and the
bullets rose until their force was spent,
and then fell upon the ground. Others
were pointed mt nm angle, and sent their
bullets far. On that spot the ground il
to this day strewn with bullets, and any
one may pick them up who will. This
was the only salute which celebrated
the surrender OF Lee.

Extraordinary Freak of Nature Near the
Mexican City of PuebIa.
The Rev. f. S. Bortain of Puebla
writes as follows: at may be of inter
est to some of the readers of The Herald

less visited attractions in the vicinity

or can point it out to the curiosity
seeker. 1t is to the right of the ear line
about 800 yards distant.
1T looks from the car window to be
pile of white stones or well bleached
haystack, but upon closer inspection
proves to be tumulus of white calcare
Gus stone, evidently of water formation,
about 30 feet in height and 100 feet in
diameter at the base. The form is that

and lined with ferns of various descrip-
tons. | should judge the depth to be at
least 100 feet, and mt the bottom, so far
rs is visible, the opening must be 90
feet in diameter. In the bottom, on one
side, are to be seen some gorgeous ferns,
and OH the other side Il pool of water.

the genius Of the spot, and occasionally
threw i'll live victim to appease his

that few victims Of the inquisition

all events, it is most singular freak
of nature US it is III the middle of IA

looks to have been some volcanic bubble,

branches will shoot out around the

these never come to maturity. but when
