This charmingcollection of war and other'
sub
jests in clay-colored material, has now 'notated
so much in interest and ituportance as to demand
some considerable attention at our hands. Mr-
Rogers has worked so industriously during the
past ten or twelie years that' he has• produced
about twelve of his largo groupe, such as "The
Charity Patient," "Taking the Oatb," and nine
of the small groups, such as "The Picket Guard,"
and others. The labor and study required in the
preparation of one of these subjects is necessarily
very great, as each point is modelled directly
from nature, and then the whole mechanically
and carefully reduced to the size we now see it.
A bronze original is made of the cast as finished
by Mr. Rogers, and from this metal moulds are
made, of an elastic nature, in which the groups
are cast, and then colored in oil colors, to render
them mere lasting. The last work, the "Coun
cil of War," gives us striking likenesses of Lin
coln, Grant and Stanton, in consultation over a
proposed important movement, each in an easy
and natural position, and disposing of Mr. Lin
coln'slengthy figure very admirably. As there has
been no standard likeness of him modeled, this fills
the void entirely, and has been accepted as each.
Tho nine small groups,. "Picket Guard," "Town
Pump," "Checker Players," Ste., will be soon on:
tirely withdrawn from sale,as the moulds have ba
comp dull and indistinct, and Mr. R. is not will
ing to dispose of any imperfect work. The few
copies now remaining finished of these subjects,
are excellent, and as sharp and clear as possible.
A new, large subject Is promised us next month,
butthe'title has not been divulged. It is =truss
tionable that such interesting Ideas as he gives
shape to, even It in so Inexpensive a material as
plaster,give far more lasting and universal pleas
ure than the tuameanlng"Paychea"Adrmis,"&c.,
which are imported in each quantities, and the
interest, in which it immediately . lost. Mears.

Proposed &lunge in the Government
of the Episcopal Church.
[Prom the Now York Tribune of to-day.]
An interesting and important debate was had
last evening in the Diocesan Convention of the
Episcopal Church, now sitting at St. Paul's Cha
pel, which is to be resumed this morning. It oc
curred upon . the report of a Committee ap
pointed at the last Convention to prepare a plan
of a Federate Council of the - Dioceses existing
within the limits of the State of New York, and
upon the canon which they recommend for the
purpose to be enacted by the General Convention
of the Protestant Episcopal Church In the United
States, which is to meet it Trinity Chapel on the
7th of this month. The proposed canon is as
follows :
"or FEDERATE COICNCIT,S
"It is hereby declared lawful for the Dioceses
now existing, o'r which may hereafter Pe erected
within the limits of any State or Commonwealth,
to establish for themselves a Federate Council or
Convention, representing such Dioceses, which
may deliberate and decide upon the common in
terests of the church within that State, and enact
any laws necessary thereto, not repugnant to, or
inconsistent with, the Constitution and Canons
of the General Convention and the Book of Com
mon Prayer."
The arguments in favor of this plan were based
chiefly on the propriety Of a mode by, which the
Ave Dioceses presently to exist in the State might
still act in concert for their common interests,
whether relating to the State or to education,
missions, and charity, Within their common bor
ders. Bishop White was referred to by the
Rev. Mr. Hopkins as having suggested that,
with the progress of the Church, Pro
vincial Councils might become necessary.
To this it 'was replied that Bishop White
could not then have anticipated the enlarged fa
cilities of travel, which reduce weeks to days,and
enable the clergy and laity of the whole country
to meet conveniently in general council from
Maine to California, and also that Bishop White
expressly declared that such Provincial Councils
should have tie -power- of legislation, 'whereas it
was now proposed to give them power to enact
all laws which they might deem necessary for the
interests of the Church within the State.

at Bayonne, France, yesterday evening, wWen
report the entry of the exiled Qaeen of Spain
into the territory of the empire and her recep
tion and shelter by Napoleon.
Finding that the revolution was "a fact accom
plished" Isabella broke up the semblance of the
court held at St. Sebastian during the morning
of Wednesday, September 30, ana set out at an
early hour for France. She was accompanied to
the frontier by a detachment of Spanish halber
diem, whom she dismissed when about to step
from the sou of Spain to that of France.
The ex-Queen breakasted at eleven o'clock In

Return of the Polar Exploring Ship.
HAIIIICRO, October 1, IB6B.—The brig Germa
nia, Captain Charles Koldervey, which left Ber
gen, Norway, on Sunday, the 17th of May, fitted
out under the flag of the North German Mind
and commissioned to explore the Arctic regions
north or the seventy-fifth degree of north latitude,
has arrived at Bergen on her return.
The More Recent Arctic Explorations.
No results of the voyage of the Germania to
wards the Polar regions have been yet announced
from Bergen, but it is presumed that the praise
worthy anxiety of Dr. Petermann, the geo
grapher of Gotha, who planned and despateked
the expedition with the view of solving some of
the problems of his science in reference to the
northern regions, has not been gratified to ;lily
very considerable extent, and that this 'forth
German undertaking, as well as the Swedish one
which sailed soon afterwards for a similar par
pose, has failed.
So far as known to-day the Germania, after
an unsuccessful attempt to make the eastern
shore of Greenland, in latitude seventy-five de
grees, sailed further north; but finding the shores
of Greenland encumbered with enormous ice
fields firmly packed by long-continued easterly
winds, would seem to have pushed round the
fields m a northeasterly direction, since the last
intelligence we have respecting her previous to
her return described her as having attained
north latitude eighty and a half degrees, in east
longitude five degrees, being then Borne one hun
dred and twenty miles from the northwestern
extremity of Spitzbtrgen, and sailing in a north
erly, direction when Spoken.
The Swedish expedition has been still less suc
cessful. It arrived at Bear Island seventeen
days after the German vessel and remained there
five days. When last heard of the Swedish ship
was in north latitude eighty dree - fi, the two
ships following a course which many of the
old Arctic navigators have pursued unsuccess
fully.

A,Vnited Sttatem Marshal KentuckY
Taken Out to do Shot.
The Louisville Democrat a Seymour and Blair
newspaper says p
We publish below an accountof the arrest of
Mr. Marshal Merriweather and the cold-blooded
attempt to execute him. On. ThrifSday lost Mr.
' Merriweather left the city with 50 soldiers. under
command of Lieut. Drury,to protect the Marshal
and his deputies in executing processes in Nelson'
and , Larne ;counties. They proceeded to New
Hope,on the rallroad,where they procured the ser
vices of a guide to pilot them through the cone,-
try.to. Howard's Mills, On the Rolling 1r0rk,,12
,miles distant. The fact of their coming had been
made known, it, is supposed, all along the road,
as no men were seen, and the houses were closed.
Before reaching Howard's Mills they met. Mr.
Howard, whasald ho knew of , their coining; that
he had been. Hodgenville Hodgenville and had heard. of It
and had come to meet them. Ho also said that
he was very sorry for what had occurred two
weeks before, and that if the Marshal would go
with him the next day they could see all the
parties and save all trouble. The Mar
shal said that was just 'what he wanted,
and ho would go with Mr. Howard the next day.
They then went to the mills, whore the soldiers
went into camp. Mr. Howard invited the Mar
shal, and the commissioned officers to go to his
house and get supper. After the expiration of a
few minutes, the Marshal and officers, leaving
Mr., Howard behind, proceeded toward the house,
but before reaching it, the officers, fearing trou
ble, returned to camp. The Marshal, how
ever, expecting no trouble, and having
entire confidence in Mr. Howard, went on
to the house, where he remained until Mrs. How
ard invited him in to supper. He accepted, the
invitation, but had not finished supper before
three men suddenly entered the house with pis
tols drawn and cocked, and demanded his surren
der. Being unarmed, he complied. They told
him to march out of the house. They said they
had been looking for him a long time, and would
make short work of him. Cariing and swearing,
they proceeded with him toward the woods,
threatening to make short work with him
when they got there. It was evident they thought
it was Mr. tiatterthwaite, a deputy marshal. Af
ter they had proceeded a ehort distance from the
house, they were overtaken by Mr. Howard, who
told them that this would not do; that he had in
vited the Marshal to his house, and they should
not hurt him. Mr. Howard then took the Mar
shal by the arm and accompanied him to the
house, and from there to the camp, where the
soldiers were.

slated by several of our citizens, last night, suc
ceeded in capturing three burglars who had bro
ken into the dry goods store of Hinkson & Smed
ley, on Market Square. On an examination of
the premises, the store was found thoroughly
ransacked, a large amount of silks, cloths and
other costly materials were packed ready for
transportation, worth, probably, three thousand
dollars. On searching the premises, there was
found a coil of fuse and can of powder with other
articles necessary for the successful accomplish
ment of robberies on a large scale. They were
this morning committed to jail at Media. They
are evidently adepts in their line of business. It
would be available for some of your officers to
see ter thern.

watching on the corner was first arrested after a
long foot race.
The two who were operating were first found
at the window in the rear of the store, taking out
the goods. T)3ey were pursued; one was caught
on the wing, the other, hid in the back-yard of

a mass-meeting which, despite the exceedingly
unfavorable weather, was a glorious , success.
Thirty thousand persons, ten thousand more than
assembled at the Democratic State mass-meet
ing at Indianapolis last Wednesday,were present,
and the enormous attendance and unbounded
enthusiasm of the crowd are hailed as certain
evidence that Northern Indiana will roll up an
unprecedented majority, and that the Republi
cans will sweep the State on the 13th of October.
The prooession which paraded the streets at noon
was several miles long. After dinner assembled
the largest meeting ever held in the district.
Ex-Senator Lane presided, and Introduced
llorace Maynard, who made a splendid
speech. Mr. Speaker Colfax arrived at
3.20 o'clock, and met with the most rapturous
reception. He was immediately escorted to the
stand, and made a very Impressive speech. After
enumerating the infamotts outrages recently per
petrated in the South, Mr. Colfax said that these
outrages could not but fill every American with
burning shame, and that a stop must be put to
them, and be declared from Gen. Grant's own
views that it was the first duty of an Executive
to see to it that every Union man in the South
should be protected. This statement made, as it
was, in the most emphatic- manner, elicited
thimders of applause. Mr. Colfax said also ,of
the election of the Republican ticket: "I feel as
certain as though the polls were counted al
ready."
Seymour Sold Outs
The Nation of thisweek says: '
There is a report, which, we give for what it is
worth, that Mr. Seymour believes that he has
been "sold out" in this State, and that the chief
object of the party 7 —that for which he Is to be
sacrificed—is, first, the senatorship; next control
of some of the great metropolitan districts and
New York city "Institutions." Democratic
Presidential votes are to be traded off for Repub
lican votes for assemblymen. The Senate,which
bolds over,is Repnblican,to be snre,but by Only 2
majority;" and the Democratic majority on joint
ballot is now 22. At all events, it is certain that
among all Republicans, whether betting men or
not, confidence increases from week to week.
Vermont, Maine and Camilla, Ga., have one after
the other given an impulse to the Republican
cause. Since the Maine election the whole or
nearly the whole Republican strength for can
vassing has been laid out In Pennsylvania, ac
cording to an arrangement made long previously.
We look to see nearly or quite 10,000 Republican
majority in October, and 20,000 in November.
Piety Sect or Mormons.
An Oregon paper. says : For several months a
number of -Mormons (Josephites) have been
-located-irrthis-vallery:—Their-settlemmtis-about
seven miles out of town, - in an easterly direction,
and in the immediate vicinity of Mason's school
house. The leader of the colony is a man named
Davis, who claims to be the medium through
which the Saviour makes direct communication
to a sinful world. These Mormons are repre

in no wise from their neighbors save in their -pc

A variety of rumors are afloat here In reference
to the troubles in Spain, and it is doubtless with
a view of placing a quietus on these that the
authorities have determine& to give publicity to
the official despatches from the seat of govern
ment. Yesterday a despatch came over the cable
in reference to matters in Spain, which was sup
pressed by the authorities.
It Is stated that its tenor was to the effect that
Prim had a respectable force on the frontier, and
that hits intention was to march on the capital,
and that be counted on the co-operation of one
of the- men-of-war. I may state here that, for
the first time in the history of Spain, there is
much dissatisfaction and disloyalty in the Span
.
fah navy.
There is a rumor afloat, to which I attach little
credence, that a Cuban owner of 100 negroes at
Puerto Principe, had' given them their freedom
and had placed himself at their head for the pur
pose of abolishing slavery and freeing the island
of the Spanish yoke. It is further stated that he
has been aripted and brought to this city in
irons.

Bombastic Proclamations of General
StalOave..
ElaWave has issued a bombastic proclanation,
which concludes with these words: ,
,
Hoydens! I have swornbefore God to support
your rights, and to work for your prosperity to
wards and against everything. Have confidence;
reassure yourselves. I will be a terror for the
enemies of public order, the, disturbers, the dis
seminators of discord._ . And all of yolk who h ave
been led ustray by false. promises rally around
me. Return; )my heart is sufficiently large to
have a place for you all therein. It will he oa
the day which succeeds victory that you
will, see if know now to love and forgive.
And you, my valiant army, my valorous com
panions in arms, let me congratulate you in the
presence of the nation for your noble conduct !
Courage and perseverance! Already oar enemies
no longer hold any importance in our eyes.
Theyhave Just paid dearly for their foolhardy
rashness in having wished to invest the capital.
Petionville, Croix des Bouquets, the plain of
Cul-de-sac are in possession of our troopti.
The enemy flies on all sides in trouble and con
fusion. All these happy results aro due to
your courage, to your fidelity to the law, and,
believe it also, in your devotion and confidence
in me. Soldiers! now that your triumph is as
sured, show yourselves as great and generous
after the victory as you have been terrible in
combat. Let those of oar misled brethren who
fall intoyour power be treated with humanity
and friendliness. Let them learn by your con
duct towards them to love you as much as you
taught them during the war to fear and tremble
before you. Hoydens, I appeal • to your
tenderness. Look at the country;
see bow she groans; behold this
ruined population; look at those women and
orphans without bread. Let us forget our dis
sensions. Let us be united. Let us rescue Hayti,
our dear country. Orders have been given to all
the military commanders to receive and protect
all those who may return to legitimate authority:
Long live the nation ! Long live the union !
Long live peace! Long live liberty! Long live
public order !

ENGLISH COMEDY AT TILE ARCH
The unusual demand upon oar space to-day
precludes the possibility of giving more than
brief mention of the very excellent performance
of The School for Scandal at the each Street The
atre last evening. Of the comedy itself, nothing
need be said. It is well known to all readers and
playgoers as one of the most brilliant dramas in
the literature orthe world.. It is Sheridan's mas
terpiece. Although it sometimes offends by a
grossness of expression which was peculiar to
Sheridan's time, it is not only a true picture of a
condition of society that has passed away for
ever, but It has a moral that may be applied for
cibly to follies and frailties of humanity in this
day;and we can pardon the freedom of tannage,
and the elevation of a libertine to the rank of a
hero,not more for the literary merit of the drama,
than for the sturdy excellence of the lesson taught,
end for the sharp satire upon too common social
sins.
Mrs. John Drew last night personated "Lady
Teazle," a character over which there has been
hardiess controversy than critics have indulged
concerning "Hamlet." But whatever difference
of opinion may exist among learned analyzers
of the part it cannot be denied that Mrs. Drew's
interpretation, to an intelligent audience, seems
to fulfil all the conditions of a correct and
thoroughly artistic personation. If there is any
better, we have yet to see it or hear of it. Mrs.
Maeder's "Mrs. Candour" last evening was also
very excellent. It established that lady more
firmly than ever in the good opinibn or her hear
ers. Mrs. Crease played the part of "Maria"
liwith_much_gooil_taste_and._ Barton_
Hill's "Charles Surface," Mr. 3fackai's "Sir
Peter Teazle," "Mr. James's "Sir Benjamin
Backbite" were all better than we can now de
scribe them to be. Mr. Everly appeared in the
character of "Joseph Surface.'' and played with
greater ability than he has displayed in any
other part. This is in some degree a test role,
and a triumrh in it is more creditable than it
would be in many others.
The house last night was crowded. as It has
been upon every evening this week. This is suffi
cient proof of the fact that the public are tired
of sensational namby-pamby plays, and are wil
ling to give hearty , support to legitimate dratta.
Let Mrs. Drew look into her full exchequer, and
make a note of the feet.
