EPISCOPAL.
-The Episcopal Church In Hanover, Mass.,
fas directed that no clerical robes except the
gown be npcd in its service.
The New York Pont gives ft list of abont ft
dozen new Episcopal churches now tcolnir, np In
New York State. The largest is Christ ChuroiJ,
liuflalo, to cost $150,000.
Kev. J. W. K. llenuctt, fif Frome, England,
a lending ritualist, lately celebrated a mass for
the repose of the soul of the late Bishop of Bath
and Wells. In accordance with the Koman
Catholic custom in masses for the dead, Mr.
Bennett was the nly one to partake (we can
bard'y say communicate) at the sacrament.
1 he Kansas Diocese takes the lead among
the Episcopalians in recognizing the ecclesiasti
cal rights of women. At the meeting of the
Kaueas Convention this month two ladies and
eix gentlemen were placed on the board of ex
aminers of the diocesan seminary, being the
first Instance in the country in 'which women
have been elected to a diocesan ollicc. They
have always had a right to vote at the parish
meetings of the diocese. The rectors of Law
rence and Leavenworth took the lead in these
uomiuatioEB.
PRESBYTERIAN.
The Kev. W. (J. Moorehead, returned mis
sionary in Italy, has accepted a call to the pas
toral charge of the First United Presbyterian
church of Xcnia, Ohio, late under the care of
Kev. Dr. K. D. Harper.
The closing month of the financial year ha
Lrought the Treasury of Missions into a good
condition. All the expenses of the entire year
ore paid, and there is a small balance on hand
with which to enter upon a new year.
The Kev. Dr. Lansing has received from
Mrs. Caroline Anne Gamble for the mission a
bill on her London baker for .250 (about $12 50
in gold), payable the first of July, for the Mis
sion in Egypt. It was a welcome gift from an
unexpected quarter. She is an Irish lady, and
was travelling in Egypt with aD invalid hus
band. At the communion in West Forty-fourth
Street United Presbyterian Church, New York,
on Sabbath, May 15, thirty-five persona were
added to the membership of the church; thir
teen by certificate and twenty-two by profes
sion. At the communion four months ago, there
was an addition of twenty-seven to the member
ship. J. C. Baldwin. Esq., of Madison Avenue
Prcfcbvterian Church, New York, gave $009,000
to various benevolent objects during the last
fourteen years of his life; and by his will gives
$72,000 to various benevolent societies, and
makes Williams, Wabash, Middlebury, and Ham
ilton Colleges residuary legatees.
The reunited Presbyteriau Church lacks but
SI of having doubled its ministry since the dis
ruption in 1838, and but 10,000 of having
doubled its membership. This does not count
in the Southern Presbyterians, who have 657
ministers and 79.901 members, and who have
Ecparated since then.
METHODIST.
The receipts of the English Weslcyan Mis
sionary Society last year were 41145,750; expendi
tures a little less.
The Methodist for May 23 reports the vote
on lay delegation as: For, 4907; against, 1589;
which gives a favorable three-fourth vote and a
surplus of 35.
The Australasian Wcslevan Methodist
Church has just held its sixteeuth annual con
ference. Its membership is 55,550, an increase
of more than 3000 over last year.
The sixteeuth anniversary of tho Broadway
Methodist Church, Camden, will be celebrated
to-morrow. Interesting addresses will be deli
vered by the pastor, Revs. A. Atwood, A. Man
ehip, C. P. Masden, A. Wallace, and others.
The Southern Methodist Church is rapidly
osing its colored membership; at least, it reports
but 19,080 colored members, against 32,085 last
year. Very likely these missing members are
in the colored conferences that have just been
organized. There are 2833 itinerant and 4753
local preachers, and 571,055 mouibers.
On Saturday, 14th inst., the East Maine
Conference gave 43 votes for Jay delegation aud
14 against; on Monday, the aflirmative gained
one vote, making 44 to 14. This brings the
total aflirmative to 4907, the negative to 1589,
and the grand aggregate to 0190, and carrying
lay delegation in the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
The growth of tho Methodist Episcopal
Church South, since the time of its organization
in 1845, and of the Northern Church for the
same period, appears from tho following re
turns: M. B. Church South. M. E. Church.

CONGREGATIONAL.
The Congregational Church in Cheshire,
Connecticut, received 41 new members last
communion Sunday, as the fruits of a recent
revival. Their ages ranged from the youth of
eleven years to that of tho aged grandparent.
The Kev. S. B. Halliday, until recently
Superintendent of the Five Points nouse of
Industry, New York city, has been appointed,
at the Kev. Henry Ward Beocher's Bpecial re
quest, to assist him in the discharge of the
pastoral work of Plymouth Church.
The Oakland Congregational Church, of
Chicago, is a year and a half old, situated on
the outskirts of the city, and has just put up a
beautiful and spacious church, with a splendid
organ, with Dot a cent of aid from any other
church or society, aud installed last week its
pan-tor, Kev. J. C. White, whose services, ever
since the organization of the society, have been
of eo much value in assuring this success.
The Kausas Congregational Association
held a meeting May 13, at Leavenworth. The
most exciting discussion was on the Bible la the
public schools. Kev. Peter McVickar, the able
euperintendent ofr public schools, introduced a
resolution to the effect that tho reading of the
Bible should not be insisted on where a
minority is conscientiously opposed, aud the
opinion of the association was about equally
divided.
LUTHERAN.
The Increase of Lutheran congregations in
Minnesota is quite remarkable. The Kev. A. P.
Caderstaur, missionary on the Upper St. Croix,
visited several places, in a journey of two hun
dred and seventy miles with his sleigh, where
there are from tea to eighty Swedish families
and openings for organizing congregations.
A certain Kev. Lammers, of Norway, some
years ago abandoned the State Church and or
ganized independent congregations. These
churches have not made much progress duiiug
this time. Lust fall a movement was com
menced to uuite these churches by adopting
articles of faith. It seems that the point of
widest departure from the Lutheran Church is
In the doctrine of baptism. They say: "Inas
much as the Bible has not gives any specific
command at what time baptism should be ad
ministered, therefore we believe in liborty of
baptism," i. e., to baptize, or uot baptize, their
children.
BAPTIST.
The Kev. W. Freeman, Baptist missionary
along the Pacific Railroad, is engaging houses
in Chicago for different posts. One is under
way for Laramie, and one will soon be com
menced for North Flatte, and another for Fre
mont. A Free Baptist (otherwise Freewill Baptist)
educational meeting held at Great Falls, N. 11 ,
has settled the question of locating the theologi
cal school, which has been under discussion fr
eome time, by providing for two such schools
one at Lewiston, Me., and one at Hillsdile,
Mich. This gives the preference to tte two
institutions already existing at these pUces, and
pleases both sections. Buffalo had been pro
posed as a compromise.
The Iowa Baptists appeal in the Wa!c?iman
and Jlejtevtor for help to put Burlington L ul
verslty on a good foundation. The Baptists are
stronger than any other denomination la this
State except the Methodists; aud yet they say
tLat U-o C'ogrca'.w.i.iliiii, .villi Lu; SJ'JJ uio-u
bers, have at Grlnnell tho best eollegc in the
State, while the Presbyterians have just secured
an endowment of $75,000, and the Methodists
have two flourishing Institutions. They offer
to allow any donor of $10,000 to give his name
to artj professorship thus endowed, and the
donor of f 50,000 to give his name to the uni
versity. CATHOLIC.
Rev. E. do Pressense tells in tho Watchman
and Jiejlector of two Oriental bishops who were
sent for to see the Pope. Kemembcring the fate
of their colleague, who was forced to sign a
paper giving up his rights, they agreed to keen
perfect silence during the interview, and could
not be induced to utter a word. A few days
after they were sent for again; and, remember
ing the old proverb, "non bin in idem" (uevcr
try the same dodge twice), they went to bed and
feigned sickness.
Father Gratry. of France, who has been ex
posing the "forged decretals' has been pelted
with Papal and episcopal rebulics since his
brilliant attack on infallibility. He takes them
quietly, and says: "They injure me, but they
do not convince me."

Nkw Yobk, May 28, 1870.
The Ninth Itrclinrnt Reception.
Tho reception of the 0th Regiment, Colonel
Fisk commanding, was celebrated last night at
the Academy of Music. In some respects it
was the most successful ball of the season if a
ball out of the season can be said to be so.
Everybody was there. It was a compression of
many balls into one, and all the elements present
in mo6t of the balls given during the winter and
early spring were found united in the affair of
last night. The man of sin and the woman of
diamonds were there in large numbers. There
was a good deal of opera ball, something of
7th Regiment, a pinch of opera-boutfe aud a
suspicion of Turim. The Academy of
Muslo, where the entertainment was
given, looked very beautiful. It was radiant
with supernumerary lights, and profusely deco
rated with the badge of the regiment formed of
blazing gas-jets. There is nothing particularly
new to be said of the accessories. These are
pretty much the same in all public balls. There
were colored and perfumed fountains, vari
colored lights, expensive tapestries, a shower of
twitterings from caged birds, and incessaut
music from a very big orchestra. Description
would be incomplete were mention of Colonel
Fisk omitted. That jewelled and phlegmatic
notoriety was present, surrounded by satellites
and beaming with triumph, nis broad shoul
ders were , never more fairly and squarely
set. As for his dress, I absolutely decline to
deecribc it. I may have occasionally attempted
themes far, far beyond the flight (if pens may be
said to fly) of this Gillott I am writing with, but
Mr. Fiek's costume 6hall not be one of them.
Subjects there are which even the audacious
shrink from touching. The privilege of portray
ing the Fiskian entemble shall be sacred to the
Gotham reporter who interviewed him. By-the-by,
every phase of Jenkinsism was represented,
and I suspect that this morning's papers will
teem with a mantua-maker's inventory and the
names of persons with the vowels omitted.
Hlowlv Dylrj Out.
Within a few short years tho washerwoman
will be no more. She has flourished quite long
enough, and now the epoch in which she was
ascendant is drawing to a close. Probably no
other class of laborers ever made so much of an
opportunity as she has done of the chance of
eating holes into apparol by an overweening
quar tity of washing-soda, and then declaring
that the mice must have done it ere the gar
ments left the customer's house. Tho want of
conscience eviuced by a metropolitan washer
woman is one of the saddest things in
human nature. It all melts la the tub
along with the indigo. The way she
scorches fine linen, and sends home
twelve-cent rocket handkerchiefs in lieu of hem
stitched ones! The avidity with which she runs
up bills and spreads out a dozen legitimate
pieces 60 as to make them twenty! The
thoughtfulness with which she leaves patches of
yellow soap on the insides of wristbands and
rubs the buttons off your flannel shirts and
creates undarnable fissures in your hosiery and
enlarges the circuit of your buttonholes 1 The
pertinacity with which one of her lnfants,of which
6he has a constantly fresh supply, is always
having the -measles at the wroHg moment, and
causing your clothes to be sent home too
days af ier they have been needed ! And now
these trials ara coming to an end. They do
these things better in California. John China
man is the washerwoman there, lie banishes
the women, and, with the exclusivlsm of a male
Sorosis, establishes laundries for his own sex
only. He frowns upon the conventional wash
board, and abjures the patent wringer. He
poetizes the labor as much as possible, and
takes his soiled linen to the river's brink. There
amid the gritty music of a rapid stream pad
dling against the shore, he infuses sentiment
into soapsuds, and in the process of rinsing
discovers rhyme and fbythm. We are told
that he washes clothes in gangs, boils
them up in gangs, hangs them out in gangs,
and irons them iu gangs. It is also hinted that
he moistens muslin with his mouth, and reno
vates tarlatan with his tongue, and that he is
peculiarly successful with colors that in most
other hands would run. Well ! there are enough
Chinamen in New York city for the reformatory
process to commence here at once. You will
find quite a little colony of them below Vesey
street, selling cigars and candies, and looking
like reanimated Anummles. I should not be sur
prised if we had a Mongolian wash-house soon,
aud all our soiled clothing were coutided to
Celestial renovaters.
".Hualcln the Air'
I should think there was music in the air.
There ought to be, with an evening band sup
plied to every park in the city. Not only lu
Central Park, but in Madison, Washington, and
Tompkins Squares, bauds are Btatloned. But as
yet they have not been under the most sensible
supervision. They have commenced playing, for
instance, at 5 and ending at 7, the inteival be
tween being the very lime when the working
people, for whom these open-air concerts were
instituted, are coming home from work and
eating their suprers, and unable to appreciate
the pleasure. It would bo far better if the eou
ccria commenced at 7 and terminated at U.
So far us the attendance goes, among people
not belonging to tho working classes, they have
been a grand success. The pilueipal listeners,
! to be sure, are babies, children, and loafers.
, The music has been Oftcubach. Will the debt
' of gratitude wiiich the people owe to that com-
poser ever bo paid ? I fear not, except eo far
I as appreciatiou Is payment. Surely his Duvhesse
und Jiarle JiUuemvutvputaAu some magical elixir
i of sound, lor the fagged musses lift their de
jected heads when strains thence greet their
ears, and the wayfarer's desert-soul blossoms
like the rose. Some attempt has been made to
cram classical music down the throats of the
crowd, but the crowd gags at it, makes a face,
; and t-c ut.capt will lo; b: permit'): in.
Fashl.a and Ferllng,
As I remarked the other day, a good many
Philadelphia Quakers are in town attending the
meetings of the Hlckslte society. Into the
excrdiums of the speakers the agitating ques
tions of tho hour have found their way. The
McFarland-Kichardson trial and the bevy of
social questions to which it gave rise, the con
dition of the Indians, the Fenian trouble, and
even the plebiscite, have been discussed by these
metk-moralled counsellors. At the close of one
Of tbeir meetings a day or two ago, a fashionably-dressed
young lady stepped hesitatingly up
to one of the matrons.
"Will you let me shake hands with you ?" she
asked.
The withered old woman regarded the sweet
yeung thing with tender compassion, and then
extended her myriad-wrinkled hand.
"This is the first time I was ever at any place
like this," exclaimed the sweet young thlng. "I
feel as if it was good for me to be here; as if,
perhaps, some day, I might like to become one
of you myself."
"Thee la not a member, then ?" asked the old
Quakeress, her compassion melting into a sort
of happy mourn fulness.
"No; and if I wanted to be, I supposo I should
have to leave off these vanities ?"
This in a tone of comical self-pity, and with
an injured look at her expensive clothes.
"Just as thee feels about it, my dear," was
the response, and as the young lady sighed and
turned away, the Quakeress looked after her as
Christ might have looked after the young man
of great possessions.
Fashion does sometimes send to the surface
jutt such pretty and capricious bubbles !
