The Tribune called to-day on the Right Rev.
Thomas NJ Clark. the venerable presiding
Bishop of the American House OF Bishops to
ascertain what action. II any. he contemplates
in regard to DR.. Br ggss ordination. The Bishop
has been much annoyed by the controversy over
the Briggs matter. which he considers most
unfortunate. II has brought him vast
amount OF correspondence. and many kilograms
in regard to a matter over which he thinks he
has no control.
The Bishop said that he did not see what ac-
ton he could take. II he was desirous OF taking
any The ordination OF a priest was entirely
a matter OF local control There was set meth

the candidate for orders be recommended by the
Standing Committee the Bishop Of the diocese
had no recourse except TO ordan the candidate.
He thought that Bishop Potter in this case had
exercised wise discretion and judgment. and
that his letter explaining his course, printed In

In these views Bishop McVickar. the coad-
jutor who was present. concurred. In answer
to an inquiry whether resolutions might not be

Vickar said: They howl II they desire. but
that is all that 1t can amount to-"

be referred to that convention also by the pre-
siding Bishop for action No other business can
come up except that for which the convention
is called which would prevent action oy the
House Of Bishops should such action be con-
tempatcd.
In answer to an inquiry as to his views or the

SEED CORN.

We have more than once alluded to
the fact that the New York expert
ment station several years ago tested
separately the seeds from the tip, the
butt and the central part of the ear Of
corn, aud found that the kernels from
the tip of the ear yielded more than
either of the others. At the stations
in Kansas and Ohio they found the
same result, the tip kernels in Ohio
producing two bushels of corn more
to the acre than those on the center
of the cob. They also proved strong
er and more reliable in terminating.
In both Kansas and Ohio the butt
grains produced larger yield per
acre than the central grains, while in
one test in New York the central
grains gave bushel more to the acre
than the butt grains, and we believe
in another test this was ne rly re-
versed.;
We were brought up, as many far
mers we're, to reject the tip and butt
kernels in planting seed, but, if the
stations are correct, we were select
ing our seed by wrong method, and
were grading down instead of up. If
this is true of field corn, it is likely to
be also of our garden sweet corn, and
gardeners should take note of it, and
of another fact which was brought
out in these experiments. The corn
grown from the kernels on the tip of
the ear proved earlier as we'll as
stronger than that grown from the
central part of the ear.
