THE EPISCOPAL CONIVESTIO.S.
The General Convention of the Protestant
Episcopal Church closed its triennial session
on Thursday last. Il was looked forward to
with much solicitude by the great body of its
own constituency, who hoped to sec. such
results from its deliberations as would heal
its internal dissensions and promote its effi
ciency as one of the great agencies for Chris
tianizing the world. It was also regarded
with no little interest by many without its
own fold, who had been led by the loud ut
terances of some of its journals, and of some
of the extremists of both wings of its mem
bership, to suppose that the disruption of the
Episcopal Church was to be the inevitable re
sult of the doing or failing to do the things
which 'these radical representatives of the
High and Low Church parties were quarrel-
ing about. On the one side there was to be
a "Reformed Catholic Church" created, and
on the other a "Reformed Protestant Epis
copal Church," and there were timid and ig
norant people on both sides who were sorely
troubled on account of the calamities which
they had been made to believe were inevi
table.
Twenty days of deliberation have passed
away, and the Convention has adjourned.
Petitions and memorials were poured in upon
it in profusion. Learned doctors of divinity
and eminent laymen consulted, talked, sug
gested, talked, moved, talked, amended
talked, debated, talked, cogitated, talked,
voted, talked, and finally, after a little more
talking, adjourned. And the people who
Live been looking on the while go away
whispering one to another:
"Id °TAB parturient; nageitur riclieulus
It is rather remarkable, when we come to
consider the amount of talent which this
General Convention expended "in laboriously
doing nothing." There is no deliberative
body in Aierica, secular or religious, embo
dying a larger amount of cultivated intellect
than this, and yet there was no single ques
tion which has agitated the Episcopal
Church during the last three years that
was fairly confronted and manfully met.
Scarcely a single important measure was
adopted, or a single step taken toward allay
ing the internal disturbances of the Church,
or promoting its outward prosperity. After
all its tremendous excitement, which was
worked up by zealous partisans over the
Stubbs-Tyng case, a very small tub was
thrown to the whale, in the shape of a defini
tion of an existing canon, that definition be
ing precisely the one that every sensible per
son, out of New Brunswick, has put upon it
for many years past. The great question of
Ritualism, the Convention could not be
brought to face, and, after two days of very
palpable dodging of the issue,the lower House
appears to have seized Dr. Littlejohn's propo
sition to postpone it for three years more, with
a great gulp of satisfaction and relief As this
was really the main business of the Conven
tion, this disposition of the question argues a
timidity which, though not unroresaen, is,
nevertheless, not a little surprising.
If the Convention is to be taken as a truly
representative body, the conclusion must be
accepted that there is a strong middle party
in the Episcopal Church which firmly holds
the balance of power. This party hold the
standards, rubrics, articles, liturgy and gen
eral usages of the Church in a broad, natural,
common-sense, Protestant way, and do its
work and minister at its altars, and preach in
tb3 pulpits, thoroughly satisfied with the re
ligion of their fathers in its old-fashioned,
decent simplicity, having no fellowship
either with the extravagances of Ritualism on
the one band, or the eccentricities of what
may be best understood by the generality of
Our readers, ca Tyngism, on the other. And
yet this middle party, while strong enough to
prevent extreme action in either direction,

else not organized enough, to lay down sat%
- a:declaration blr theiecipservative principles`
.11p -Mould have eiemised a Most powerful
influence • upon • the Episcopal -- Church -at
The viewS
. X.f, this claim_ were ttil
mirably expressed in the minority report pre
sented by the Rev. Dr. Howe. But they
were not adopted because there was not quite
enough of the element of moral 'courage
present in tie Convention to bring this vexed
question to a settlement. • - -
It larremarkabl4that among tie' very few
things which the Vonvention did do, were
two measures which would least have been
expt cted in such a conservative body. Tile
most important of these was the prohibition
of the marriages, by .Episecipal clergymen, of
persons divorced for causes other taan the'
single one of adultery. This is, we believe,
the only instance in which the legislation of
the Episcopal - Church has been brought
direct conflict with the '
civil law. We are
not prepared to combat the scriptural argu
ment upon which the new canon is based;
but there is a sort of practical absurdity, at
this day, in laying down a law which ° will
have no effect whatever except to increase
the mintage fees of civil magistrates and
ministers of other denominations. Devout
Episcopalians, who accept the interpretation
of Holy Writ upon which this new canon is
founded, will not desire to marry within the
- proscribed bounds, and all others will simply
invoke the good offices of those who are
authorized to marry them by the civil, and
not forbidden by the ecclesiastical law of
other denominations.
The other singular piece of legislation was
the breakin t g up of the uniformity of the
Episcopal service by the admission of such
other selections of hymns from two or three
specified books, as each Bishop may approve.
for his own diocese. The hymnal of the
Episcopal Church is a small, but very choice
one. It is probably desirable to enlarge it;
but herd, as in nearly all other matters, the
Convention could not grasp the responsi
bility of setting forth an additional c3llection
of hymns for universal use, but turns the sub
ject over to the forty odd Bishops, so that the
traveling Ephi6opalian, instead of the old uni
formity of public worship; will be treated
with a series of novelties in each new dio
cese that he may visit. There is a marked
inconsistency in this introduction of variety
in the services, just when all parties pro
fess to be aiming at simple uniformity.
The Convention having adjourned, the
Episcopal Church will, or ought to, subside
from the excitements which have disturbed
its peace, into the quiet of active, unobstru
sive, legitimate work. Most of its late war
fare has been upon purely domestic abstrac
tions, while tefore it lies the great field of
the world, "white unto the harvest." To
this work it will now turn itself, and the
world will be able to look on and take up
once more the old commendation which has
fallen into syh sad disuse : "Behold how
these Christians love one another !"
CUM& AND THE INSURRECTION.
For several weeks an insurrection has been
in progress in Cuba, but it has been impos
sible to obtain any reliable information re
specting its origin, character and progress
until within a day or two. The .Captain-
General, Lersundi,wholly ignoring the sweep
ing reforms which have been instituted in the
mother country, has continued in force the
odious laws against free speech and liberty of
the press, and has exercised his old despotic
power in suppressing intelligence and in pm
venting the transmission of news over the
cable. It is entirely evident that his sympa
thies are with the fallen Isabella, and that he
is determined—stupidly enough—to remain
as faithful to her interests as he dares. He
seems to accept the results of the revolution
with a kind of melancholy resignation; but
he refuses active sympathy with the move
ment, and will not part with his power until
he is compelled to.
Not so the people. They are as enthusi
astic over the reformation as are the Spaniards
themselves; and their joy is not less sincere
because it is undemonstrative. Of course
there are a few who mourn for the ruined
monarchy. But these are generally planters
who own large numbers of slaves, and who
perceive in the progress of freedom, only fu
ture loss of their property. But the masses
cannot lament the destruction of authority
which has ever been a burden to them, and
which not only robbed them ot every per
sonal privilege, but oppressed them with tax
ation—extorting an annual revenue of thirty
million dollars from a population of little
more than one million. These advocates of
reform are divided in opinion as to the pro
per course for Cuba to pursue under the new
relgirne. One party wishes to continue the
present relations with Spain; another de
mands annexation to the United States; still
another boldly declares in favor of entire in
dependence, and a government ot their own.
Those who desire union with Spain are nu
merically the strongest, and there can be little
doubt that they will be successful in their de
sigr. The most liberal government in the
mother country would be likely to protest
very strongly, and forcibly, against the loss
of such a rich prize as the Ever Faithful
Island.
But, as far as we can learn, the present
insurrection is conducted by members of all
parties, and is directed against the tyranny of
General Lerbundi. It appears to have made
very little headway so far, because most of
the Cubans seem disposed to await peace
fully the inevitable interposition of the home
government in their behalf, rather than to
inaugurate a war which can only result in
disaster to the country and to both parties
concerned in it. But if they do not progress,
the rebels hold their ground, and thus far
have baffled every effort to defeat and destroy
them. Theo cause differs frOm - that for whiCh
Cubans have fought in the many former re
bellions that have agitated the island, in that
it has the moral example, and indeed sup
port, of the government in Spain, while Ler
sundi's efforts to suppress them are only half
hearted, for he knows that his superiors will
not entirely commend his action.
Upon the whole it is very doubtful whether
there is any wisdom in the action of the rebels.
Captain General Lersundl's success.ir has
been nominated by the Provisional Junta in
Madrid, and when he arrives, and obtains
possession, he will, of course, inaugurate the
reforms with which Spain has been blessed.
If the revolutionists aim at enrolling Cuba in
the Union of our Suites, and expect assist
ance from this Government, they will be
disappointed. Mr. Seward doubtless wants
the island as badly as Buchanan, Itlason, and
Soule did when they wrote their Ostend

To-night, Philadelphia • honors her own
loyal name by giving.a coidlal, spontaneous
greeting of welcome to Abraham Lincoln's
great Minister, Edwin 31: Stanton. Through
years of anxious, and too often thankless
toil, Mr. Stanton has stood faithfully at his
post of duty, while be has seen „private for
tune an'd personal health thseltitig away in
the hot furnace of devotion to his country's
highest interests. Long after, ery other
marl whom Mr.'Lincoln chosefor,,his coun
sellor, had either passed 'Awn' the office he
once occupied, or proved faithless. to. the
great inheritance which the murdered Presi
dent bequeathed to the men whom he had
gathered about him, Edwin M. Stauton stood
true td his principles, a great, stern, rugged
bulwark, against which the'rage and the cun
ning of his enemies alike weredashed into
con fukon. ' •
Mr. Stanton, through his long period of
eminent public service, has developed just
those qualities of downright physical , and
moral "pluck," which, by virtue . :of their
Anglo-Saxon descent, the American people
are sure to appreciate and respect. He has
conquered his present. proud hold upon the
affection and reverence of the people by dint
of fidelity under temptation, endurance under
mountains of hard labor, and an unsullied
name for integrity, and lofty patriotism.
The people of Philadelphia have long
desired to see and hear the man, of whose
public services they have seen and
heard so much. But while in office, Mr.
Stanton allowed himself no holidays. And
since his retirement from office he has desired
nothing but the quiet and repose of his own
home. But, ever mindful of his duty, he
made one more effort to serve his country in
the late campaign in Ohio, and in the few
speeches which he was able to make he con
tributed largely to the brilliant victory we
have just won in that State. His failing
strength, however, cut short his Western
tour, and now, making his way back to his
home in Washington, he pauses for a day to
gratify the frequently-expressed wish of his
c )untless friends in Philadelphia ; and his re
ception to-night will testify how Philadelphia
alineciates his effort.
Mr. Stanton will make an address at the
Academy of Music, which will be overflowed
by the fortunate few of the vast crowds who
desire to meet and hear him,and he will after
ward be serenaded at the Union _League
House, where he will, doubtless, receive one
of Philadelphia's heartiest ovations. America
has no other private citizen to whom such
willing honors would be paid as those which
the whole loyal people of the country are
ready to tender to the man who was the
great Minister of War under Abraham Lin
coln, as he is the great advocate of peace
under Ulysses B. Grant.
Mr. Seymour lamented last night that in a
certain Southern State "men are accounted
criminals if they dare to exercise the rights of
an American citizen." Yes, Wade Hampton,
the man who nominated Seymour, demands
the punishment of every colored citizen who
exercises his right to vote as he pleases ; and
the Democracy all over the South are putting
men to death daily for daring to think like
free men. Horatio had better hush upon
this subject.
Seymour asked, last evening, "Why can
not we s rive to obliterate the past?"' Re
publicans do not make an effort in that dire--
tion simply because they have nothing to be
ashamed of. It is natural for a man with
Mr. Seymour's record, however, to wish to
souse the nation in Lethe, and forget his own
misdoings. We shall remember them until
Tuesday, at any rate. After that his obscu
rity may provoke forgetfulness even of his
existence.
WiArni. sVANTON.
President Johnson has pardoned another
man who was convicted of violating the..l2 ;v
-enue laws. Gratitude is,what A.. Ward would
call, one of Mr. Johnson's "forts." He con
siders that he has not yet sufficiently com
pensated the Whisky Ring for its ser
vices rendered during the impeachment
. .
Horatio Seymour last night accused the
Republicans of having changed front. Con
sidering the recent attempted change of front,
back and both sides of the Democracy,
during which ineffectual effort at traasforma
thin Horatio Seymour narrowly escaped
being kicked out of his candidacy, each a
charge coming from him is amusing—it is
mutt—it is brassy.
Was it dense ignorance or a wilful spirit of
falsification, thatmade Horatio Seymour say,
last evening,that the railroad system of Penn
sylvania had cost only thirty millions? Three
hundred millions would have been nearer the
correct figure; but Democratic politicians
seldom get nearer to the truth than Seymour
bas in this case.
Not one word was uttered by Seymour
last evening in reference to his colleague ou
the ticket, Blair. Perhaps he feels sore be•
cause Montgomery Blair said that Frank
Ought to have been at the head instead of the
tail of the ticket.

The old lady's information, by the way, was

was not, however, much of an effective rally,

very quietly.
An inquest was held yesterday over the body
of Mrs. Anna Oxenfortb,who is supposed to have,

jury rendered a verdict to the effect that there
was probable cause for believing death to have
result...Ai from poisoning, and Oxenforth was
thereupon committed to jail.

VITY BULLETIN.
HALLOWEEN.—The evening of the 31st of Oc
tober is known as All Hailow's Eve,or Halloween.
The leading idea respecting Halloween is that it
is the time, of all others, when supernatural
aces prevaiL It is the night set apart for a
universal 'walking abroad of spirits both of the
visible
and invisible world. There is an old cus
tom, perhaps still observed in some loCalities,on
this ulght of hanging up a stick horizontally by
a string from the ceiling and putting a candle on
the one end and an apple on the other. The stick
being made to twist rapidly, the merrymakers in
succession leap up and snatch at the apple with
their teeth (no rise of the hands being
allowed), but it very often happens that
the candle comes round before they
are aware and scorches them in the face or
anoints them with grease. The disappointments
end misadventures occasion, of course, abun
dance of laughter. The grand sport with apples
on Halloween, however, is to set them afloat in
a tub of water Into which theinvenhes by turns
duck their heads with a view of catching an
apple. Great tun goes on in, watching the at-
Le [opts of the youngster in the pursuit of the
swimming fruit, which wriggles from side to side
of the tub, and evades all attempts to capture it;
whilst the disappointed aspirant is obliged to
abandon the chase In favor of another, whose
turn has now arrived. The apples pro
vided with stalks are generally caught
first, and then comes the tug of war to
win those which possess no such appendages.
Nome competitors will deftly suck up the apple,
if a small one, into their months. Others plunge
manfully overboard in pursuit of a particular
apple, and having forced it to the bottom of the
tub, seize it firmly with their teeth, and emerge,
dripping and triumphant, with their prize.
Among the customs still prevalent in Scot
land, and sometimes practiced in this country as
an initiatory Halloween ceremony,is that of pall
ing kailstockt or stalks of coiewort. The young
people go out hand-in-band; blindfolded, into the
kailyard, er garden, and each pulls the first stalk
which he meets with. They then return to the
fireside to inspect their prizes. According as
the stalk is biger little;straight or crooked, so shall
the future wife or husband be of the party by
whom it is pulled. The quantity of earth stick
ing to the root denotes the amonut of fortune or
dowry, and the taste of the pith indicates the
temper. Finally, the stalks are placed, one after
another, over the door, and the Christian names
of the persons who chance thereafter to enter the
house are held in the same succession to indi
edit those of the individuals whom . the parties
are to marry.
Another ceremony much practiced on Hallow
een is that of the Three Dishes or Luggies. Two
of these are respectively tilled with clean and
foul water, and one is empty. They are ranged
on the hearth, when the parties, blindfolded, ad
vance in succession and dip their lingers into
one. If they dip into the clean water they are
to marry a maiden; if into the foul-water;—a—
widow; -if into the empty - dishy the warty so - dip=
ping is destined to be either a bacnelor or an
old maid. As each person takes his or her
turn the position of the dishes is changed.
The ceremonies above described are all of a
Eght,sportive description; but there are others of
a more weird-like and fearful character, which,
in this enlightened age, have fallen very much
into disuse. One of diesels the celebrated spell
of eating an apple before a looking-ghiss with
the view of discovering the inquirer's future hus
band, who, it is believed, will be seen pooping
ever her shoulder. Another of these ceremonies
is to wet a shirt-sleeve, hang it up to the tire to
dry, and lie in bed watching it until midnight,
when the apparition of the individual's future
partner for life will came inand turn the sleeve.
In this country, at - the present time, the cele
bration of Halloween has almost become obso-lete, and is confined principally to pranks ofja
ven lies in ringing door-bells and otherwise an
noying citizens.

Mr. O'Brien objected.As there was but one claargebefore
the Co.,t.
Mr. Cassidv urged that this was proper testimony in
order to show the defendant's motive, that he was en
gaged in refusing votes when offered by persons having
papers which on their face were genuine.
Judge Brewster allowed the question.
Witness-1 only know from what was told roe; Mr. Me.
Caivey, the other inspector, said there were three or four
others like me. and that I had better not make any dia

Mr. Gaseiday 'midi ho was prepared to show that it was

Mr. O'Brien objected to the paper, because the paper

Judge Brewster—The NISI Prins is a mere emanation of
the Supreme Court; no original process is ever issued o it
of the Nisi Prins, bat nut of the Bupreme Court, by its

New York Money Market.
[From the N. Y. Herald of toNle.T.l
Ocr. 30.—The demand for money was very active to
day, and there were no reduction of the sates of Interest,
sever, per cent. in gold being freely bid; but the supply
was generally reported to be larger,and hence there was a
comets bat diminished .tringuncy. This gave rise to a ru
mor that there was a 'let up" in the money market but
. nothing transpired to confirm it, although etocas were
bought largely on the supposition of its truth. The inch
cat for a on tf•e contrary are that the prevailing stringency
will count ue, natural causes at present favoring an ac
tive movement a: capital, while the money markets in
both the Ea'tern and the Western cities are stringent.
and a fresh demand for currency will soon be created by
the pork and the cotton trope.
; The etaten.ent of the associated banks for the week
will doubtless reflect a very unfavorable condition of mo.
• netary affaire at this centre, the banks being unusually
poor in loanable resources.
The stock market was bid up from the opening, and the
decline of last evening was soon recovered. Prices coo.
tinu.d to advance under the inanipidationof the bull
cliques, whose object is to unload as far as poealO:e at the
present juncture, a hile the "short" interest gives a cer
tain supp rt to the active stocks. That the bulls have a
hard winter before them they are not slow to perceive;
fcr the election of General Grant will tend to a
clover approximation of the value of the coin
and currency dollar, and consequently to the
reduction of market values as measured by paper money.
The efforts of the cliques to force quotations against
their natural tendency are attended with great peril to
themeelvev, the more particularly as prices are far above
ter ange of real values, and, therefore, liable to a heavy
break at arta time. however easy money may be. The
general supposition is that the payment of the November
ietere.t will affect the market favorably, but it must be
remembered that hitherto it has acted in au opposite di
rection in consequence of the active conversions of coin
into currency. and there is no obvious reason why the
present instance should prove an exception to the rule.
[From the N. Y. World. of to.day.l
Oar. 38.—The money market was without change until
about I P. X. the rates for call loans ranging from 7 per
cent. in currency as the minimum, and 1.16 and' s per
cent. commissions were paid, and 7 per cent. in gola.
After 2 P. M. loans were made at 7 per cent in currency-
The ease is attributed to the expectation that the reserve
of the banks will be inoreased by the disbursements of
Government coin to-morrow and Monday. It is under
stood that the AvaisteuatTreaeurer will cash any gold
check. presented tomorrow.
Boors 1 allures are reported among the produce houses
owing the heavy decline in breadstuffe. The losses,
however, will fall chiefly on operators in the West, as the
New York firms have been generally cautions and pru
dent The failures reported are Thomas Griffen da. Co of
New York; Daniel Newhall. of Milwaukee{ Heiner dz
Co. Milwaukee, and Helmen, of Buffalo.
The Government bond market was more active and
strong, anti there was a c , nsiderabte improvement in
Pr ices. The new bonds, 18675, were the chief feature in
the market eales baying been made as high at lit, an ad
vance ot 1 per cent within the last few days, and closing
strong at 11034® 1 10%.
Ihe foreign exchange market is dull and weaker, with
the bulk of transaction at 109?,i for bankers' sixty-day

The Govern:tent bide for gold amounted to $90(,000
and the whole amount was awarded to Henry Clews di
Co. at 10. M.
• The geld market is steady, ranging between 1345, and
124, opening at 164 , ;!.. and cloning at 13434 at—B. M. The
rates paid for borrowir g were 2.1, 3 . , 164 and 1.32 to flat.

its own bonds to the mad amount that the company is.
sues, for which it takes a second mortgage as security.
8. de additional aid. it makes an absolute donation of
12.800 acres of land to the mile, lying upon each side of
the road.
9. The bonds pay six per cent. in gold, and the Principe
is also payable in gold.
19 The earnings from the local or way business wore
over Foos MILLION Dott.sas last year, which. after Pall
ing operating expenses, was mnrh more than sufficient to
Pay the interest. These earnings will be vastly increased
on the completion of the entire line in 1869.
12. No political action can reduce the rate of interest.
It must remain for thirty years—six per cent. per a 73711072,
In paid, now equal to between eight and nine par cent, in
currency. The princ , pat 18 then pay note in gold. If a.
bend, with ouch goarantees. were Waned by the Govern
ment, Its market price would not be lees than from 20 to
25 per cent. premium. As these bombs are issued under
Government authority and suuervisicn, upon what Is
very largely a Government work, they must ultimately
approach Government prices. No other corporate bonds
are made so secure.
18 The issue will soon be exhausted. The sake have
sometimes been half a million a day, and nearly twenty
11111110118 have already been sold. r. bout ten millions more
may be offered. It is not improbable that at some time
not far distant, all the remainder of the bonds the Cotn
pany can issue will be taken by sense combination of
capitalists and withdrawn from the market. except at a
large advance. The long time, the high gold interest, and
the pet fect security,must make these bonds very valuable
for export.
All the predictions which the officers of this Company
have made in relation to the progrew and business success
of their enterprise, or the value and advance in the price
of their securities, have beeu more than confirmed, and
they therefore , tiggest that parties who desire to invest in
then bonds will find it to their advantage to do go at once.
The price for the present is lid, and accrued Interest it
6 per cont. in currency from July I, 1868.
