OTHER DESrOXIWATJOXe-
Episcopalian. —The London Church News Bays
that “one of the most influential prelates on the
English bench, on the part of others of bis .brethren,
has made a complaint to certain Scotch bishops <jf
the recent charge of Bishop Ewing, which so many
persons hold to be as dangerous in' its tendency and
unsound in its character as'any of the writings of
Bishop Colenso. Two addresses to the Scotch Pri
mus on this subject, which were signed by Scottish
Episcopal Presbyters, were withdrawn through lay
influence. But we believe it to be no secret, now
that Bishop Ewing has returned to England, ( tliat
the charge will be formally brought before the Ar
gyll Synod by the Provost of the College of the Holy
Spirit at Canibrae.”' The town of Chelmsford,
Mass., haß for more than a quarter of a Century:been
under the control of the Unitarians, and those who
sympathize with them, Some time ago a lady, be
longing to the Episcopal Church, gathered a few
poor children around her and commenced aSunday
school, which grew into a small congregation that
had occasional preaching. The Town Hall was ob
tained for the services. A petition, signed by the
Universalists and Unitarians of. the town, .was pre
sented to the Selectmen, asking that the hall might
lie closed. The petition was granted, and the leeble
congregation was turned into thestreet. This is the
work of men who arrogate tothemselyes the title of
Liberal Christians In the Tennessee Convention,
an ecclesiastical law has been adopted.whereby, in
future, all vestrymen, delegates to Conventions and
voters at parish meetings, must be communicants.
The Diocese has also one colored candidate for' or
ders.- President Short, formerly of Philadelphia,
who has had charge of Kenyon College during the
last four years, arid Rev. Prof. Gardirier, formdriy of
the Diocese of Maine, who has held a chair-in the
Theological Seminary of Ohio not,quite two years,;
have resigned. A Montreal paper, quoted without
comment by the Protestant Churchman , thus- mixes
up the dignitaries present at the late Cathedral con
secration in Montreal: “There were present the
Most Rev, the L rd Bishop of Montreal, Metropoli
tan; the Right Reverertdß the Lord Bishops of Illi
nois, Virginia, Niagara, Ontario, Quebec, Maine,
and Vermont.. ——The Church Journal says that, on
the fir-t Sunday after Trinity, at Grace Church, Pro

Entiis Clark, D.D., pastor of the Dutch Reformed
chiirch at Albany, N. Yi, and' a nephew'of the Kt.
Rev. the Bishop of Rhode" Island, was 1 ordained a
deacon in the Episcopal Church. At the fiftieth
Convention of the Diocese of Ohio the-question of ,a
division of .that Diocese elicited, much attention, The
subject was brought up by Judge. Spaulding, who
presented a petition 31 feet pj, length ip favor of the
division. A committee o!* eight clergymen and
seven laymeti was appointed to take the matter into
consideration, arid'report at a future’’cdri’vehtion.
Bishop Mcllvaine said that he did notdeem an im
mediate division necessary, especially if the : health
of Dr. Bedell,. Assistant. Bishop, should be reestab
lished. The salaries of both Bishops, were raised to
$5,000 and $4,000 respectively,—ryMp.the Maryland
Diocesan Convention of the Protestant Episcopal
Churfch, a resolution was adopted providing for the
division of thS'Diocese, and the erection of the East

in favor of dividing Indiana into three Dicoeses.-
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1867.
The Bishop of Nebraska reports three churches now
being erected in Dakota— the only places of public
worship in the whole Territory. A few months since
Bishop Davis, of South Carolina, met with a pious
young man, whose heart was drawn toward the
Christian ministry, and sent him to the Kpiscapal
Theological: School at Spartanburg. He pursued
his studies here zealously, for a time, but became
restless on certain points of theology. He finally
became convinced that he was in the wrong Church,
and a few Sabbaths since was admitted to the com
munion of the Presbyterian Church, and is now a
student of theology at Columbia, S. C.— —A letter
from Rome says that among the notabilities now in

Church, who appears at all the Roman Catholic
ceremonies attired in the full dress of a pilgrim' or
hermit, and acsists mostdevoutly.at all the religious
functions of the season. Tjie news from Natal

orous examinations were made as :to the p'astoral
conduct of the preachers, particularly in respect to
debt, bigamy; rum and tobacco, showing;considera
ble anxiety for the purity , and reputation of the
Church. Rev. J. W. Logan; “underground rail
road king,” was: a great favorite. :'He was air es
caped slave, and afterward assisted twenty-five, hun
dred others into liberty. “He did not know what
for,” he said in his discourse at the State St. Church,

AS YOU LIRE IT SKIRT
This is not only a new fashion, but a new article ut
tSkirt, made on an new principle, so novel an !
that ihe.ladies contend it should be called
Infection.
- We would here cull particular attention to the
1 O i Like It: ori-flexible joint, exlending down the
front of the sjcirt; itisso constructed that the spring-?
fold inwardly, but,not outwardly, and readily yield ro
{.he slightesi, pressure, thus allowing them to collapse.
; sb‘ that the skirt occupies the smallest' possible spare
while-sitting; riding, or in’passing through a crowd
;and yet the moment the pressure is removed, the skirt
resumes its original and beautiful shape.
The novelty and utility of this contrivance needs
but be seen to be appreciated. ,
'* But for want of spacb we might here publish thou
sands of extracts'from loiters we are daily receiving,
(Speaking in the liighest'praise of these Skirts.
OUR CORSETS
are now so well known for their superior shape, mate
erial,. and Workmanship; that it is perhaps unnecessary
for us fo 'spfcak of ihem further than to say that we
have greatly .enlarged our 'assortment of styles, both
of our own.make and importation, and can now sateiv
defy competition, JVe ask but a. trial and are sure .
your future patronage. Manufactured by the Sbbrma.'.
