As a lawyer, Huchantiii was noted chiefly for tho perspicuity of ids state ments. Like Lincoln, he presented n case so that.both.sldes ol it wero exposed.

Ho had no personal collision witli opposite counsel, being too cold of temperament to sell his heart with his talents, Nobody ever saw him cast down; lie was sometimes angry, but put a small vnluo upon vindletlvcuoss ; whatever personal despite or humilia tion ho felt was husbanded up in his secret bachelor heart and no man shared its Jiang.

TO TUB COLL'MIIIA.S. Shall Wo Have A. Bithop Amonr Tin: Proceedings of tho Episcopal Convention naturally raise tho question standing us tho caption of tills commu nication, and in order that It may be dlscus.-ed tttiderstandlngly a few words, preliminary nro requisite. Tiio Dioceso of Pennsylvania at pres ent contains forty-two counties, com prising about thirty thousand square miles, nnd containing n population of moro than two millions of souls, It 1 evident nt 11 glance that there Is a lar ger population nnd grenter extent of territory than enn bo properly overseen nud administered by nny ono lllsbop. Tho precarious health of Hlshop Ste vens made 0110 of tho things necessary tho division of the Dioceso, or uu n- sistnut Ilishop, a matter of economy, division is the cheaper. The Convention raised tho Ill-hop's salary to W'fi00,nml recom mended the piircha-e of nn Epl-copnl residence, nt nn additional expense of $3.i,000, nnd the salury of uu assistant would not be less than $3,000. Wo be llevo wo enn provide for n Rlsliop by expending, say one dollar npleco nniui- ally, by each communicant in tho new diocese ; undtlicrc is no member of tho Church within that territory who can not or will not, contribute that small sum. But, besldo being clieaper.an indepen dent Bishop is preferable evory way. l'lrst, In being able to reach personally nil parts of tho Dioceso. Second, In en joying n moro intimate relationship with Ids Clergy and Laity. Third, In organizing and carrying forward Church work. lotirth, In finding out tho great needs of particular localities, nnd Fifth In concentrating and organizing tho la bors ami means of tho Church, tltu3 In creasing her usefulness, her Influence and her power for good. An assistant Bishop is after nil only n Journeyman. He cannot; originate, lie can direct, only lu subordination to the Bishop. His powers are ns perfunctory as his duties, and in neither is ho n free or Independent agent. It was under all these circumstances that Mr. Win.
