Please send, with despatch, twelve dozen Alleock's
roue Plasters. Our daily experience confirms their very
superior excellence. At this moment of writing, a man
applies for one, who, by entanglement in the shaft of ma,
glittery, had both his legs broken, spine severely injured,
and was for nearly a year entirely helpless. This man
found relief very soon by the application of a plaster to his
spine. lie was soon enabled to work, and now ho labors
as well as ever. Ile would cheerfully DO' $5 for a sin&
plaster if they could not be had at a lower rate. Knowing
the plasters to be useful, I have no scruples that my sen
timents should be known.

I have coffered greatly from a weak back; at last the
pain became eo severe I could not get out of my bed. My
doctor, B. J. Fichtr, of Ode village, recommended mo to
imply an Allcock Poroue Piaster. I did ee, and in two
boon the pain began to abate. The epot where the pain
was most severe seemed like a coal of fire, and which the
plaster appeared to draw out. The day after I applied
the plaster I got up, and my trouble was all gone. I wore
the plaster three weeks, and duce the second day after
alad3ing it, have had as strong and well a back as any
one. If I had paid fifty donne for a plaster I should have
considered it cheap.

COBRIIPTION IN THE SENATE.
It has happened again and again, since the
outbreak of the rebellion, that the Senate has
been found lagging behind the. House, and,
at times, the House lagging behind the great
instinctive sentiments of the country. In the
later years the Ouse has permanently moved
up to the frontTne of the public will, but the
Senate has usually hung back, shrinking
from great responsibilities until they have
been forced upon them. This, however, has
not been the case in the impeachment of the
President. The Senate assumed its responsi
bilities promptly and fearlessly, accepting the
challenge which Andrew Johnson cast into
the teeth of the outraged law, and joining
issue with him in the name of the Constitu
tion and of all the people.
The Senate, as a body, has been true, and
Johnson, finding that he could not control
the mass, has attacked it in detail, and with a
degree of success that has filled the country
with distress, indignation and alarm. He
Sias gone round about the Republican lines,
testing the fidelity of one sentinel after an
other, until be has found the weak points and
has overcome them. Corruption has done
its work with men who have hitherto borne
irreproachable names before the world, and
they have sunk into sudden infamy, from which
111. The inducements and appliances of
corruption are numerous and powerful be
yond what has ever been known in the his
tory of this nation. The illicit whisky and
tobacco interests have everything at stake in
the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. Mil
lions of revenue are involved in the question
of his conviction or acquittal, and it is so well
known that this illicit traffic depends, in
great measure, on his retention in office, that
there is no difficulty in securing all the
money that may be needed for the purpose.
IV. There is no ground upon which any
claim for honesty: can -be founded, in the
case of theie Senators. They are fully aware
of all the consequences which must follow on
the heels of their treachery. Their own de
struction is their own affair. •No one will
mourn over that. But men do rot tonally
overturn all the professions of a life-time,
and run counter to all the opinions and in
fluence of the great mass of their colleagues,
and strike hands with a man whom they
have despised and denounced, and open the
hood-gates of despotism and confusion upon
their country, and cast off the respect and
support of honest and decent men, from pure
and noble and upright motives.
V. •The conduct of these Senators has n ot
been that of honest men. Had they been
acting upon any manly conviction of duty;
had they been men of clear consciences and
clean hands, they would not have taken such
pains to hide their purpose from their friends.
"He that doeth truth, cometh to the light,
that his deeds may be made manifest."
Grimes, it is true, was not able to conceal his
treacherous purpose, for with him a deep
personal spite is the controlling motive, but
Fessenden, Trumbull and Henderson wore
their disguises to the last, and only cast them
off when they were no longer possible.
For these and other considerations, it is
out of the question to talk about the honesty
of these recreant Senators. Some of them
are men of not very brilliant intellect, but
none of them are deficient enough in brains
to establish the one saving plea of imbecility.
They have listened to the inducements, po
litical and personal, which Andrew Johnson
and his friends have poured into their ears,
and they have fallen. There is too much in
dignation at their faithlessness to leave any
room for regret over their loss to their party,
or pity for the shame they have brought upon
1 their good names.
J. NV. JOHNSON, M. D
CHARLES BATTY.
L. 11. SHERWOOD
there is no hope of redemption. Fessentlen,
Grimes, Henderson, and Trumbull, if no
more, have sold themselves and betrayed
their great trust, each for, his own price,
This is the sober verdict of the people, and it
is grounded upon an intelligent common
sense.
That these men have been corrupted, and
have betrayed their avowed principles for
some price, is evident from several considera
tions, both of a positive and a negative
Character.
I. These recreant Senators have again and
again recorded their votes in favor of the law
which they now condemn, and in condemna
tion of the criminal whom they now, be
friend. There is no honesty in this sort of
inconsistency..
11. No pretence is made that any evidence
has been presented or argument made for
Mr. Johnson's defence which was not per
fectly familiar to these men long before this
trial was thought of. There is, therefore, a
total absence of all ostensible cause for their
defection.
TIDE TREE NUISANCE ON SOUTH
, B ROAD STREET.
The shocking and lamented death of Mr.
Lemuel S. Levering, from being hurled
against a tree while driving on South Broad
street, haEl at last awakened the public to the
necessity of removing the trees that form
what is miscalled a "Boulaard." This is
the third fatal accident from the same cause
within a year, and there have been many
others not fatal. The trees make the car
riage-ways so narrow, that there is constant
liability to such accidents on days when
there is much driving, and this fact, with the
sad illustrations it has had, ought to be suf
ficient reason for ordering the removal of all
the trees and the restoration of the street to
its former condition.
But, besides this, the trees do not thrive
they are continually damaged and broken by
cattle ; none of them are ornamental ; they
afford no such shade as would make a prome
nade among them agreeaille,and the dust from
passing vehicles world spoil them for such a
promenade. Such it sight as promenaders in
the so-called "Boulevard" is entirely un
known. The uselessness of the trees is, there
pre, acknowledged. Now that there have
been so many deaths and injuries from them,
there ought to be no hesitation about remov
ing every tree, and we trust the subject will
be acted upon at the meeting of City Coun
cils to-morrow. Those citizens interested in
the improvement of the street, who have la
bored so effectively to have the freight rail
road removed south of Market street, should
unite their energies with those owning prop
erty further South, so that the street may be
made safe for those who ride and drive upon
it, whose number increases every year.
THE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION.
We devote considerable space to-day to the
proceedings of the Episcopal Convention,
now in session at St. Andrew's Church, in
this city. The important religious body re
presented by this Convention embraces a
large proportion of the intelligence, cultiva
tion, wealth, social influence and benevolent
enterprise of this community. The Conven
tion has a number of interesting subjects be
fore it, among which is the question of the
employment of Christian women in the work
of-the Church. A very interesting report on
this subject will be found in to-day's paper.
The division of the Diocese will
also be discussed, and excites
much interest among the clergy,
THE DAISY `E -- - 11 'gi' W IN ' l4 `0
as it involves the selection of another bishop.
The much agitated 'question of Ritualism will
also probably 'come up, in the form of an
effort to establish a Philadelphia "St. Al
ban's," which, having been opposed by the
Standing Committee, will, it is understood,
be brought before the Convention. These
are some of the more prominent topics which
will engross the attention and deliberations of
the Convention, of which we shall lay full
reports before our readers. We are glad to
see that Bishop Stevens has sufficiently re
covered from his recent accident to resume
his official duties, and to preside over this im
portant Convention of bis Diocese.
The master p bricklayers of this city are agi
tating the apprentice question, and they in
sist upon their right to take more than two
apprentices each, the number to which the
rules of the associated journeymen now limit
them. The Journeymen's Union warmly op
poses the movement, and if the employers at
tempt to carry into effect their desire to man
age their own business in their own way,there
will probably be a strike, and while the im
provement and progress of the city are re
tarded by the movement, the families of hun
dreds of men, who might be usefully and pm
stably employed, will suffer from want. But
this is not all; boys who should be learning
trades will be left.to, run the streets in idle
ness, and grow up worse than useless mem
bers of society; and when the building season
is at an end, and work is no longer to be ob
tained,there will be want and suffering among
families because husbands and fathers refused
to make hay while the sun shone. The Burr
Lam has always held, and it still holds, that
the services of every man are worth what
ever they will bring, and however unwise
exorbitant demands for wages may be, the
journe,yrnen have - the right to manage their
own affairs in theft; own way. But when they
go a step farther and also undertake to man
age the business of their employers, and dic
tate to them how many apprentices each
shall be permitted to take, they go entirely
too far, and enter into a conspiracy to accom
plish a mischievous purpose. We are per
suaded that if a test case were made and
brought before the courts of law, it would
be decided that such combinations and move
ments are impertinent, contrary to public
policy, and of course illegal.
A State Fenian Convention is now in ses
sion at Syracuse, New York. It has adopted
an address to the "Irish Nationality of New
York" (what is the "Irish Nationality of New
York ?") in which it says: "We have pledged
ourselves to meet the enemy soon upon• the
battle-field, and we earnestly call upon you
to exercise your utmost energies to furnish
the necessary means to equip and arm the
many thousands of willing hands and brave
hearts impatiently waiting the order to
march." What enemy and what battle
field? We presume that either Canada, Eng
land or Ireland is to furnish the battle-field;
but as the United States are at peace with
Great Britain, American citizens, whether
native or of Irish birth, have no right to con
trive war upon a friendly power. If the
Fenian Convention is made up of
unnaturalized foreigners, they have no
more . right to plot mischief upon our
soil than rebel emissaries in Canada had a
right to plan raids, steamboat piracies and
hotel burnings in the United States. We have
much and just cause of complaint against
Great Britain and against the people and the
authorities of Canada for the aid and comfort
aiorded the enemies of the United States
during the time of the Rebellion. Two
wrongs do not make a right, and whatever,
may be the private feelingd of Americans in
respect to the rights of England or the
wrongs of Ireland, we should be careful not
to follow an example which has brought
about international complications and diffi
culties that seem about as far off from a sat
isfactory solution as ever.
The trial of John H. Surratt was called up
yesterday and postponed. Of 'course there
will be ' further postponements, then perhaps
will come the mockery of a trial before a
Washington jury, then a disagreement, and
finally a discharge of the prisoner. So we go.
Jefferson Davis not only unpunished for his
great crimes,but the object of Southern glorifi
cations; one of the assassins of the martyr Lin
coln an actor in a, judicial farce, and Andrew
Johnson, the meanest, if not the greatest,.cul
prit of them all, threatening to cheat justice
through the treachery of Senators who, in
their degree, are as false to their professions
and principles as the Tennessee apos
tate himself. Heaven help the Re
public when it is not only com
pelled to struggle against its open foes
and with baffled rebels, but when its own
honored servants betray their sacred trusts
and sell themseivei out to the Presidential
Catiline. Mr. Lincoln made a prophetic
utterance when he spoke of " a governmen
of the pdople, by the people, for the people."
The people who carried the country through
the dread struggle of the rebellion, who de
stroyed the cause of our national troubles
and who restored our national integrity, will
right the wrongs of the nation in the present
crisis and send the ti ibe of stultified traitors,
Johnson, Grimes, Fessenden and the rest of
them, into a purgatory of infamy in com
parison to which utter blank oblivion would
be a merciful boon. •
The Union Pacific Railroad is moving to
wards the Pacific coast at the rate of three
hundred miles a year. The track of the
Omaha route is now laid five hundred and
eighty miles west of that town, and ten thou
sand workmen are shortening the distance to
ward the setting sun at a rapid rate. Pos
terity, when it comes to study the history of
the present era, will turn with disgust from•
the perusal of treachery and corruption in
high places,to contemplate the grand achieve
ment of an age which spanned the immense
gap between the Missouri river and the Pa
cific, which overcame the great, mountain
barrier of The far West, and which
threw open to the use of man the agricultu
ral and mineral resources of half a con
tinent.
Amid the grave aspects of affairs at Wash
ington, there are one or two gleams of actual
humor. Mr. Henderson, whoee colleagues
have demanded of him hie resignation or the
perforniance Obis' duty, is reported as hav
ing promised, in lieu of his vote for convic-
tins, that he "will stumpy his Statefor the
Radical ticket at 11w coming election."
We are not told whether this magnificent
offer has been accepted or not, but we greatly
mistake the Republican party of Missouri, if it
ever permits a man, who proves recreant in
such a crisis as this, to serve again among its
standard-bearers. Such men will be driven
over to the enemy, where they belong, and
not be trusted with fresh opportunities to de
ceive and betray the, people who confide
power to their bands. 'Mr. Henderson's mag
nanimous offer, if it was really made, has a
sublime impudence about it which affords
quite a relief to the otherwise sombre view of
his misconduct.

THE P. E. CONVENTION.
The Convention of the P. E. Church of the
Dieem of Pennsylvania reassembled at St. An
drew's Church, in Eighth street, above Spruce,
this morning, for Divine services. Despite the
inclemency of the weather, a large congregation
was in attendance. The services commenced at
10 o'clock. Rev. Thos. B. Barker, read the intro
ductory services; Rev. John Bolton, the lessons,
Deuteronomy xxx and John xr,; Rev. Wm. L.
lialicy the Creed and Litany and special thanks

the Convention, as in grateful recognition of
recovery, as follows :

Rev. 1). C. Idillett read the Ante-Conimunion
services. Rev. Dr. Watson then delivered the
annual Convention Sermon, by appointment, as
follows :

of great satisfaction to him, notwithstanding his tabula.

There was a contrarely among tsosc who preached the
Word-not in the theme preached-for that was first and
always Christ; but in the spirit by which they were
actuated. "Some," ea} a he, 'indeed, preach Chrug even

there will be an "outer darkness," the eternal portion of

that "outer darkness" now is in its principles and govern

but from which they have emerged Ivrho by, repentance

to Him. -
But what is the practical operation, we may ask, here?
Our moral life over moves among objects which are ad.
dressed to the reason and the desires. Before conver

which faith apprehends being either unknown or treated
as unknown. But whether so limited or not, they are
judged and dipposed of according to natural principles,
which, in our corrupt state, are identical with that world
which know* not God. `Hence the designation of the un.

that the believer bees Lv Chris!, tlirmigh U7llOll loith awl

of his new life; now we sea he origin, principle and

And though Scripture Wee attributes our new life to the

the displorement of Christ !limed', ae the origin and
cause of that life but only that by the operation of the
Holy Ghost Chriat is formed in, the soul la brought

the source of all that holiness which characterized him as
a nun, and all that love and zeal. that undaunted
courage and eatlesce which dietinguiehed him as an
apostle. And beloved. felt as be telt it., what will it not do
lor us.? Without the coneciousnees of it, we can hardly ,
move in Christ tte our new sphere; but with it He will
become OS if our natural, as He is our true, world of
being and of action.
Tile dwelling of Chriet in us Is the starting point for
all that Scripture rapt of our conformity with Him in
His death and resurrection, and ascensi o n. even to the
sitting with Him in heavenly pieces; which becomes
again I he_ground of th at e ff ort which we should put forth,
to, make this conformity complete In fact, as it le In idea,
arid thus engender the hope, the "hope Which maketh not
ashamed," that as we are planted together in the likeuees
of His death, we: shall he also in tie likeness of his resur.
potion—knowing that if We be dead with Him, wo shell
also live with Him, aid because he lives, we shall live
also.. This is Indeed. the life - over which death has no
power, and the earnest even that our morbid bodies ehall
be redeemed It om the power of the grave.
3. But yet awn. Not only does %riot live In us, but
we live in Firm; and we cannot doubt that thin, too, is
wrapt up in the amplitude of the Apostle'e declaration,.
And how much is comprehended In this! It expresses
nothing lens than our posithin In Christ as the new stand
ing,poing for the eoul ! the ground or blebs front which
we act in all thlop. manward and Godward. Even , -
thing now is for Christ's sake,, and In Ills name. Every ,
benevolent effort is viewed/rem out of Christ, from a
spiritual, not - shah:al, point of obtervattom We look to .
Hie sanction, to Ills authority, for everything; and title
is decisive.
Formerly, we raid (or thought). "is this consistent with
worldlyiprudence. or eeleintereat ?" Then we:consulted
our fleshly mind and temper. But now we nay, "is It
according to the mind of chid: in it for Hie glory. and
our own welfare and advancement in Him ?" Here we
have planted ourselves; and from this lofty and heavenly
place survey the whole field of bunion lite and conduct.
And hence that wonderful assertion of St. John, Ahat
"whosoever ahldrth in Him nlnneth not :" the very fact
of his abiding in Christ being a guarantee that of no wil
ful transgression can he be guilty.
But. most of all, it is a standing-point for the soul in its
relations to God. lam in Christ: therefore lam brought
near loGod: Yea. I have fellowship with Wm. As He is
". he mediator between God and man," se no maa com
eth to the Father but by Him. so every man that cometh
by Him does . come to the Father. What new
power does this new truth give to our praying "in the
name of Christ; what light does it throw on His own
words? "At that day ye shall ask in my name, and I say
not unto you that I will pray the Father for you; for the
Father t Email loveth you, because ye have loved me and
have believed that I came out from God "
AIR; do we not too often nfle this sacred formula Li a
were fonamba—fitting words with which to conclude our
prayers and nothing more? But now , asking in the name
of Christ means asking out of brim, as those who are in
Him, whom be allows to Identify with Himself, as in
cl yt lane else. send their petitions to their Father. And
is not this tits int-ree.terton for us:not the here petitioeing

us He will net do,) but the bringing us into the Father,
are being In Himself ,• that an He stands before the throne,
so we plead also in Him, and have accrue toeret/ by thin
grace into which we are admitted.
And have wr not here the whole mystery of our salvation
unfolded? tic are sarcd because we are is Christ. "God
as in Christ reconciling the NVOIId unto Himself, not im•

11. We proceed to the second line of thought which the
text suggests—that which is pertinent to no as the feint's
tee, co. Chriet, so many of us as occupy that honorable,
but reepoteible office.
And the first that strikes us is, how necessary, as an in
dispineftble requisite for administering our cotice, that
resew/alto and experimentally we should be able to say
in that sense which we have already drawn out, "to me
to live la (,brief." It would be taking too much upon me
to rpeak in any authorities way to those who are my
brethren and a qualethut as we are directed to"exhort one

Like the Apostles, when they went forth to Jews and

At the conclusion of the sermon, Rev. Edward

Post-Communion services, and the Benediction

Convention was regularly organized for business.
Bishop Stevens , address to the Cenvention was eloquent
and able. wee replete with many valuable suggestions,
and was listened to with great interest.
Hits opening remarks were a grateful recognition of the
goodness of God in again permitting him to meet his
brethren in the Convention, after an absence of nearly
two y ears. A brief statement was given of the causes
which led to his departure from the country, accompa
nied by a short synopsis of his travels and Episcopal
work abroad, with an earnest statement of his grati
tude at being enabled to again resume his home duties.
From the 2d of June. 1867, his official labors were as fol

secrations, I, Sunday school chapel; admitted to the Dia

road accident, which has very neativ disabled him from
duty up to the present time. four confirmations alone hav
ing been since administered by him.
A brief allusion was made to the proposed division of
the-Diocese. As the question would be brought up in the
report of the Convention, he waived the expression of
any opinion at present. •
Reference was made to the importance of parishes erect
ing parsonages for the comfort and permanent residence
of ttheir respective remelt!. Tllo. numerous changes
among the clergy since the last Otaimention were alluded
to, with deep regret that most of them were produced by
the lack of sufficient support for their families. The two
services which he had held at the Bishop Potter Memorial
House had commended it to him as a very important
agent for the reread of the Govnl; and he referred the
Convention to the accounts of the services held there by
him inJune and Februitty last.

the portion of the bloceee which thereby was designated
for a now jurisdiction, since little more than one-third of
the Parishes had communicated their anent to It, and
lees than one-hall of the Clergy.
Other linos were then examined and discussed, which it
was believed would not be obnoxious to the same objet.
Bon which was regarded ea fatal to the one already
referred to.
The Bye of further division projected and reported bythe
Committee of Ten previously to the setting forth to
the Diocese of Piita burg, was reconsidered. That had the
great advantage of being conformed . to the geographical
features of the country. and associating in ecclesiastical
union populations whose bustnesti Intereets make them .
one.
. But it reserved to the old Diocese so much of the sub
stantial and numerical strength of the Church. that the
new, though much greater in extent, would probably be
without the ability tor immediate gelfeupport
To divide now on thin natural line (which the late
Bishop Potter la known to have approved as
the next limit of the old Diocese of Penn.
'5 'yenta, when a second offshoot shall have
become sarong enough for indrpendsrit existence) being
thus thought impracticable, s our Committee examinee
the map of the Dioceee.seeking for others which raig..t be
accepted by all concerned, whereby a new Diocese,
strong enough to be selfsustaining. might be separated
without leaving the press nt Diocese in anybody's regard
too circumscribed In territory.
Some consideration wog given to a line which should
add to the five counties suggested last year as the re.
siduom of the old Diocese wheiy a new one shall have
been set apart, the two counties of .Lehlgh , and
_ _
Northampton. , addition, however, would ' etil,
leave the old Diocese greatly reduced in territory.
which wag esteemed a most objectionable feature of
last year's project by one who is a party concerned in any
scheme for reducing the Diocese of Pennsylvania. And
imtil our church has made 'Ditch further advances than
she has yet reached in the sub-division of large Dioceses,
there will be found a very natural reluctance on the part
of those in authority to surrender four-fifths of the dis
tricts under their control and to hem themselves within
narrow borders.
Until 1E56 the Conititution of the Church. in its proof.
efon for the dividing of the dioceses, prescribed the num.
her of vinare miles below which no diocese should he re.
duced, and Implied that the parent diocese tnuet in each
case be as large in extent as the new one fashioned out of
it. The language of that article of the Constitution has
been changed, but the idea, and feeling which it
expressed ate not yet altogether obsolete. More
over, in looking forward to such a growth
of the Church in the diocese thus bounded as would ne
cessitate after a few years, further &olden, no line
presented itself to tt e view of your Committee as likely
to be a convenient one for that eventful division. And
the idea of revering by and by a fragment from one dio
cese in order to attach it to another, suggests an excess of
change which in the judgment of your Committee is not
to be admitted into the plan and policy of the Church.
These considerations led your Committee to regard
witg mere favor an extension of the line of division to
the northern limit of ths State—thus associating all the
counties, nine in number on the eastern border of the
State, and making the line of separation between the
old abd new Dioceses. like the one that now' ivides ue
from the Diocese of Pittsburgh. a north and south tine.
Besides the rapid development of tho resources of the
northeastern section of this State,and the steady increase
of its population, the existence to the midst of it of a city
which Las suddenly become the third in magnitude
in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. and the meteor a
Bishop of the Church r.f Rome, impressed your committee
with shelter that after a very few years the diocese of
fourteen counties might be again and advantageously
divided, havina centre for the new Bee more important
and powerful than arc those a f many of the older dio
ceree. Moreover, respect was had in this demarcation to
the reluctance of most of the stronger parishes
in the northeastern section of the diocese,
as witnessed by documentary evidence furnished last
year and now in the hands of your Committee, to be
severed at Mir time from the Diocese cont'lning the city
of Philadelphia. The groat interior or middle Diocese, if
'his line even were. accepted. would be very much larger
in extent than the one from which it had been set ottand
it would comprise within its limits nerdy every large
city and censiderable toy n (ebilrclelphia excepted) now
in the nordere of the Diocese et Pennsylvania..
It Is the judgment of your committee that the jurisdiction
7ow under the oversight of the Bishop whom God has
paced over us. it gr:atly bevond the measure of human
tin path to administer. Relief is imperatively required.
To the Convention we proceed to communicate the facts
which have come to our knowledge, and which we were
deputed to obtain and report, and leave it to the wis
dom of the Convention to draw from them ouch practical
issues as the case may seem to justify.
herairding the last line indicated by which 14 counties
ould be left to the old Diocese, as on the whole tho best
71041 could now receive a sanction, without which no
division could be effected, your Committee sent forth, in
January last,a circular to the clergy and to the vestries in
all the parishes of the present Diocese out of that line—in
w Lich they were caked to express, in due form, before the
Ist of May—their approbation or disapprobation of divi
sion on that line. By the journal of the Convention
of 1667, it appears that there were then 48 par.
Mlles outside of the fourteen counties.. in union
with file Convention. Of these. 26 have by their vestries
made anon er to your Comm.; of these. 3 have signified
their approbation and 23 their disapprobation; of these, 7
have qualified their answer with an intimation that they
would ascent if some other line was proposed. In the
same region the Journal of 1867 reports 46 clergy.
men resident and qualified to vote in the Convention.
Of these 27 have responded to the inquiry of your Corn.
millee-9 !affirmatively, 18 negatively; 14 of them with a
qualification in favor of division on some other line. it
certainly is an occasion for regret that so many of the
clergy and Parishes have omitted altogether'to exprestt
themselves on the subject of division; the prima jrar7ift
inference would be that they feel not much interest in it
The inquiry submitted to them by sour committee-early
in the winter.has served at leastithie perceive: it has given
timely notice to those most Concerned that the subject of
division would be agitated at this Convention; and it Is
to be presented that the Parishes have borne tins 'in mind
in selecting representatives to act for them in this body.
Nothing can be done here in which the ,the deputies of
the people do not concur.
Your committee were induced to propose but a single
question on the subject of division by the following con
siderations; Before the Convention of 1867 they issued a
series of questions—one on the desirableness of division,
and another, in which all were asked to suggest. if they
ev cleased,,any line of division more acceptable titan that
proposed by the committee. The answers which were re
ceived with scarcely an exception, if.
fir - motive or negative. upon the line pro
posed; not one suggested any alien Instructed this
year to confer with the Bishop. and learning that to.
division there was yw insurmountable obetacle,your Corn.
'Atte° felt themselves constrained to submit another to
the consideration of those interested; and they did not
reiterate the broad question en the desirableness
of env: division, nor the query whether indi
vidual men could ptopose a better, because it seemed
superfluous to rent w questions which had before elicited
an answer. because it was thought that the whole
subject could be with less confusion approached on the
floor of the Convention, if the answers obtained were spe
cific upon a project of diVision, which. app'oved of by the
Convention, would they knew meet with no subsequent
opposition:and which seemed the most eligible of those
which were within the option of this House.
1 our Committee have had no wish to forestall
opinion; they have endeavored faithfully to do the work
entrusted to them ; that is, to obtain facts and lay the
matter before the Convention in such a way as to secure
for it the fireest sand fullest consideration, and the wisest
and most harmonious settlement.
