THE EXPEIXED H«BHON8.
Canto and Protests.
The Utah Magazine for October 30 contains
cards from the excommunicated Mormons—
W. S. Godboand BUB. Kelsey—an “appeal to
the people,” and a formal protest against the
action of Brigham Young and the Council.
The editor says: “We have no intention of
suspending the issue of tills magazine." The
war has evidently opened in earnest. .'
The “protest” sets forth that it is the right
of all Mormons to refuse to nccept principles
or measures on the sole authority of the Priest
hood ; that they have a right to retain a stand
ing in the Church so long as their lives are
J)ure, without regard to the opinions of the
eaders; that the right of public discussion
''#sert2i tha*-t*.i&« im illegal
usqoftheHolyPriesthood to expel an^per
son from the Chu?ob,because they cannot con
scientiously admit the divinity-of any measure
presented by the Priesthood: and the final
protest 1b against, compulsion.”
Mr. Godbo declares fie is stiilafaithful Mor
mon, but substantially reiterates the declara
tions of the formal protest., that he
has paid thousands of-dollars to the Mormon
authorities, at times when he thought tho
measures in contemplation frere not wisely
planned, but ho .was not prepared to destroy
‘‘unity of action” by refusal. ■
Mr. Kelsey says: “I have apostatized from
no doctrine nor commandment ever given :to
the Church by revelation through Joseph
Smith, nor, indeed, from any of the measures
of President Young—save it be. wherein he
claims infallibility for President ; Young, at the
Same time admitting liis fallibility as a man.”
This is the substance of the respective utter
ances of the men who now stand arrayed in
open hostility to Brigham.

Ttaonnumtl Totts or Kochs—Till rfy-fonr
Pemons Drowned.
Mexico, Oct. 16.—The wont horrible catas
trophe that has occurred during the last half
century in any silver mine Iu the world hap
pened witWn the old mine of Jesus Maria,
near the city ot Guanajuato, ou the 9th of Oc
tober. About 1,600 peom and Indians are -em
ployed in this mine during the entire year. It :
was opened in the early, part of the sixteenth
century,aid has been worked continually since
that time; Some of Us chambers have been ex
tended 3,000 feet from the opening. On the date
mentioned, while the laborers were seated in
ono of the broader chambers, eating their tor
tillas am chili —noon-day meal—they were
startled by a sudden, crumbling sound above
them, caused by the giving way of an im
mense portion of tho shelving rock which
formed the roof of the chamber. Tho whole
number rose to their feet, breaking in diftor
ent directions and running against each other
in wild conftision.
With them were their wives and children
who had brought them their simple meals,
and were waiting to return with their pails
and baskets. Scarcely a second intervened
between the instant. tho alarming sound wns
heard from above and tho crash upon tho
chamber floor below, followed by a cloud of
dust and the mingled cries or a thousand
voices.
Twenty-five thousand tons of rook in a body
.had buried in an instant, as was afterward as
certained, upward of an hundred miners,
their wives, sisters, and children. The height
—4OO feet—from which the immense fragment
of the overhanging mountain fell gave such
deadly momentum to the great weight that
■none who were struck knew of tho terrible
blow which sent them into eternity. The
alarm was soon spread to neighboring mines.
Thousands of miners and citizens from
Guanajuato soon assembled around the shaft
of the Jesus Maria mine. There was not a
spark of hope that any. one of all who' fell
beneath the crush of rocks was alive. By
counting the tvhole number who entered tire
mine in the morning, and the missing women
who had carried meals to relatives ana friends,
it was ascertained who had' been buried in
that terrible mausoleum.
ANOTHER HORROR IN 3IEXICO. ]
The day following that on which the Jesus
Mariasuver mine disaster occurred, sixteen
women, six children and twelve men were
drowned in the river Merecala, State of Mi
ehoacan. They had reached the river bank,
and sat down to rest before undertaking to
ford the river, which had.been swollen by the
late rains., The hank npon which they sat
overhung an angry current, and suddenly slid
off from the, main land Into the stream. Every
one perished. Their bodies were found lower
down the stream.—A". Y. Sun.
Hospital Clinics.
To the Editor of the Daily Evening Bulletuir—.
Will yon allow an old student, who is at the
same time a-graduate in medicine of .more than
fifty years standing, to offer some remarks on
the present difficulties in the way of clinical or
bedside instruction in the Pennsylvania Hos
pital ? Students of tho University of Pennsyl
vania and of the Jefferson Medical College,
numbering between two and three hundred,
took the hospital ticket, at the beginning of
the session, in perfect good faith, with the in
tention of being, as those before them in former
years had always been, regular, earnest and
respectful attendants on the clinical lec
tures, operations, manipulations and de
monstrations of wounds and other injur
ies in the structure of various parts, by
the physicians and surgeons of the institu
tion. These students, in taking their ticket,
were not told that there would be a new, im
portant, and.almost of necessity, a disturbing
element in the composition of the class by the
addition of a certain nnmber of female stu
dents of medicine, who should attend at the
same time and occupy the.game benches with
themselves. The carrying oTthis scheme into
effect eonld not fail to give’a rude shock to al
the conventional ideas and feelings of the com
mnnity regarding the modesty and maidenly
reserve of yonng persons of the other sex, in
every station of life. The students of the two
great medical schools of which our city is justly
proud, and from whose temporary residence
ft derives substantial pecuniary gain, might
well be annoyed and disgusted at their enforced
companionship with young women who could
gaze at, unmoved, and perhaps handle objects
of the most repulsive kina, some of them
evidences of disease resulting from vicious
and criminal indulgences, and repairing for,
their exhibition unseemly exposure of the
person* of the patient. Very justly was it said
by the Bulletin that the presence of women
under such circumstances “is opposed to all
the prevalent notions of modesty and pro
priety,” and, also, “that feminine delicacy and
modesty must suffer by a promiscuous attend
ance at such demonstrations as are insepar
able from such clinics.” Young men attend
ing clinical lectures and demonstrations would
not dare to whisper or hint at to their sisters
at home the topics discussed on these occa
sions. These students had also another cause
of discontent and complaint in the fact that
they could not members of a mixed
classjhe same full measure of clinical instruc
tion astbey would if they were to continue
separate as heretofore.
- But while it mast be conceded that the
young men who took the hospital ticket had
real grievances to complain of, there can be
found no justification for their rude, unmanly
and coarse conduct to the yonng women who
had begun attendance on the cnriical lectures
of the hospital. A nuisance may be very
patent, but it is not allowed, evenTo those
suffering from it, to abate it in asnmmary and
illegal fashion. Granting that the female
medical students disrobed themselves, on this
occasion, of tho attractive abd even protect
ing vesture of modesty and shrinking reserve
from all needless and chose to ap
pear in a state of demi-moral nudity, they
were, nevertheless, amenable to other courts
for sentence and adjudication, in which the
male students could take no active or recog
nized part.
On a review of the whole matter it would
seem that these young persons'of both sexes
have been placed in a false position to each
other by the unadvised course of their seniors,
the managers of the Pennsylvania Hospital,
who have > not evinced their customary discre
tion and good judgment on this occaslbn, in
their issuing tickets to young women’for at
tendance ion the clinical lectures iu their in
stitution.. Thepartiesmost directly interested,
and whose opinions Of the feasibility and
practical vyorkings of the; new experiment in
the interests ot humanity must have the
greatest weight, are the members of the medi
cal and surgical staff of the hospital. If we are
correctly informed, these gentlemen were not
consulted, nor ’was any inquiry .instituted
through them as to the . opinions and feelings
of the students of the. medical schools.
The subject was of, sufficient, importance to
justify, and, indeed, require preliminary con
ference and consultation among all these par
ties; and particularly between the hospital
managers and .clinical lecturers who make up
their staff. If the students, when 'they went
.for their hospital tickets, had been apprised of
the new associates intended for them, they
couffi either have declined taking tickets, orif
they did t&be them, it would be giving their
implied assent to the experiment, and an ob
ligation not; to Oppose ally ohStacles to'a
fair trial. At the opening lecture of the cliui,
cal €OlllllO, if not at the first lectures at the
schools, the Students might have been apprise
i OUR WHOLE COUNTRY.
From the Loudon correspondence of the
Now York Times upon tho subject of the
opposition that was offered in Kugland to the
elevation of ltev. Dr. Temple to the Seeifff
Bxeter, we clip the following:
It Is curious to see the divisions among those
one would expect to be united for common
defence. "While Dr. I'usojrtakes such strong
ground against Dr. Temple, the Church Times ,
iratber - favors Lin appointment, and clearly
prefers him toanyot the “ Protestant” party.
The radio;d Kitiudists look upon him as a
clear-headed hard-headedintellectualman,who
may bo expected not to turn up his nose at in
cense,and who will give all parties fair play. If
'he docn not believe much,he will not be a bigot.
Dr. Lee anti Dr.Littledale seem also to be at log
gerheads on tho disestablishment question.
,BwtX-think no one can fail to see that all
these contests are tending to one result. The
Government of England will not much longer
trowhlo itself with the appointment of BLsliops,
to whom, if they have any character at at all,
two parts out of three will have as violent ob
jections as Dean McNeill has to Dr. Pusoy.
The Church, like the Colonies, will be thrown
upqn its own resources, and we shall then see
how long men who are poison syrup or poison
undisguised to each other can keep up the pre
tence of corporate unity.
The Tinies takes, therefore, an Anglican and
conservative view of the question. It holds
that—
“ The scandal and mischief—if it be so—of
having Dr. Temple on the Bench, are’ surely
as nothing compared with the ruin which
must befall the Church if all its contending
sections were'free to persecute andexpel each
other. Had the extreme High Churchmen
had their way, no clergyman doubting bap
- denial regeneration could have remained
, within the Establishment; had the extreme
Low Churchmen bad their way, there would
have been a secession of clergymen holding
consubstantiation; bad the extreme men of
both partiesbad their way, some of the ablest
and not the least pious of English Churchmen
would have been driven into some other com
munion. After the elimination of these ele
ments, a vapid and colorless orthodoxy might
. remain, but all that constitutes spiritual fife
and energy would have been lost to our
Church.”
"I suppose you have heard the news about
Dr. Temple, it has been received just as if he
had died. Three of the masters cried when
they told their forms of it, and onr master ob
served that we might ever be proud of saying
that we have been under Dr. Temple. I shall
not care a hit for the school with a now mas
ter ; no more will any one. I Feel sure that
there was not anybody in the school who ever
disliked him. We cannot ever possibly have

After that who can doubt Dr. Temple’s or
thodoxy and fitness to be a bishop!
Production and Development In Oc
tober.
From the monthly- petroleum report for the
month ending October 31st, published in the
Titusville Herald, we gather the following
statistics:
“The total production during the month, as
shown by the difference between the stocks
un the first days of October and November
and the shipments from the region during the
meantime, was 405,206 barrels of forty-three
gallons each, or' a daily average of 13,071 bar
rels. This shows an increase, as compared
with the daily average for September, of a
little more than 400 barrels, and of 3,000 bar
rels over the daily' average for October last
year. The increase was less general on the
farms and districts than during September.
The yield of many of the older producing
farms and tracts fell off, anti on several of
them the decline was important.
“The number of new wells in process of
drilling increased during the month, and on
November Ist the number in all parts of the
region vvaa 260, an increase of twenty-nine.
Besides the above there were altogether about
fifteen old wells being drilled deeper. These
were located mainly in the Plcasantville dis
trict.
"The stock underwent a further decrease
during October, and on November Ist the total
amount in all bands was 276,473 barrels of
forty-three gallons, a reduction of about 16,000
barrels as compared with that on the first day
of the previous month, and an increase of
10,000 barrels over that on the Ist day of No
vember last year. The reduction was occa
sioned by unusually heavy shipments during
the last four days of the month.
“In the stock above given are included the
amount at the wells, the amount in iron tank
age, and that on tho hands of dealers, pipe
companies and refiners- This latter stock
reached 13.970 barrels, and included 2,900 bar
rels at Titusvillej 2,020 at Bitiolo, 1,500 at
Shamburg, 1,000 on Bull Bun, 1,200 on the
Eynd Farm, 800. on Cherrytrce Bun, 1,600 at
Miller Farm, 560 on the Story Farm, 2,000 at
Petroleum Centre, 1.000 at Oil City, and 400 at
Tidioute.
"The total shipments of crude equivalent
reached 421,229 barrels; of 43 gallons, or a
daily average of a little more than 13,600 bar
rels. The shipment by the Allegheny-river
was light, having reached but about 2,500 bar
rels. The quantity shipped to New York was
about 18,000 barrels in excess of that for the
previous month, that to Cleveland about 2,000
barrels'less, and to Pittsburgh about 20,000
barrels less. The shipment to Boston fell off
about 3,000 barrels; and’ to all other'points
thorc wa§ an enlargement of a like amount.”

The Bishxm of 'Exeter
The Bffir ovc£ Dr. Temple's Nomination
This is the High Erastian view, and it Is ap
parently the view taken by Mr. Gladstone,for,
in the midst of all this clamor, he has calmly
ordered the Chapter of Exeter to elect, and
will order some of the Bishops to consecrate,
the essayist and reviewer, Dr. Temple.
And one of the most violent of these Pro
testants against thg royal supremacy has made
up his mind that nothing will come of it.
Archdeacon Peiiisou says;
“From the first moment that I heard of the
‘designation’ of Dr. Temple I was obliged to.
conclude, from many years’ sad experience,
that there would not be found any collective
or ..corporate faithfulness in resisting it, I.
dernbt, indeed, whether there are to be found
.so many individual instances of faithfulness
as was found .eight years ago. The Minister
is said to be a churchman. No than can possi
bly have done more to bring the synod of his
province into the lowest contempt. But there
is a greater offence than that of Dr. Temple,or
even that of the Minister who tramples upon
the faith which he professes to hold. If Dr.
Temple shall he elected and consecrated, this
will be ‘the greater sin.’ ”
In the meantime the Bugbeans, old and
young, stand up sturdily for their Head Mas

written to his father, wh o has sent it to the

THK TIIOMAH CONOKRTB.
—The socond of the Thomas Concerts drew
a far .larger audience than the first, dolighting
all with the finished playing of the best or
chestra wo have ever heard in this city, and
educating our musical public to an ' apprecia
tion of something better than has hitherto
been vouchsafed them. For some time to
come their playing will remain the standard
by which to gaugo the efforts of onr concert
orchestras. Although we cannot, as yet, hope
to hoar any such performance at hands
of the latter, it will bo interesting and profit
able to note their progress m overcoming the
great disparity. Comparod U-itli the Thomas
orchestra, all that wo liavo done is utterly un
satisfactory. Shall we not learn a
lesson lrom these evenings of un
alloyed pleasure? Are we not to look for
better tluugs from those to whom the Thomas
recitals must have come as anew rovelation of
what can be done by continued, conscientious
effort in the right direction? Lot us at least
hope that, after this, our musicians will aim
somewhat higher and that our audiences wjll
exact more than they have heretofore been
furnished with. We cannot boast of so large
a number of excellent musicians,nor have wc,
as yet, been able to discover the presence in
our city of such a leader as Theodore
Thomas. Wo can, however, avoid slip-shod
performances, aiul when we are always doing
Our best we may rest assured that better will
follow.
Wc were delighted last evening with a repe
tition of the exquisite serenade by Haydn.
We doubt whether any number on the pro
gramme so fasciuated the audience as this
quaint, yet beautiful composition. As a proof
of proficiency, not alone as to piecision, but
as to the fullest conception and perfect ren
dition of a musical idea, we must cite- the
“Traeumerei,” by Schumann. Arrauged from
a little sketch for the 'piano, it is scored prin
cipally for the strings, with a short passage
for wind instruments, after which the original
theme is repeated with muted strings. Played
by an ordinary orchestra, this little sketch
would have been void of meaning; as ren
dered last night, it was alive with grace and
feeling. .
Of overtures, there was the great Leonora,
No. 3—Litolfi’s effect piece—Bobespiene and
Ambrose Thomas’s light and pleasing
Mignon. There was, also, a charming suito by
Bach and the Scherzo from the Keiormation
Symphony. Besides these there were waltzes
and polkas by Strauss.
Miss Alide Topp played tlie Schumann
Concerto in A minor with more than mere
virtuosity. . Far more than the Liszt
concerto of the previous evening, it is more
grateful both to performer and audience. Her
musician-like performance made this lier most
successful effort before a Philadelphia audi
ence. Power, delicacy, au exquisite touch
and thorough appreciation of the beauties as
well as the difficulties of the great work
characterized ’ her playing. Mr. Leetsch’s
trombone solo, “Die Thraene,” by Stigelli,
was tastefully given, and showed his com
mand'of a most difficult instrument.
For this evening, we are promised, among
other attractions, the two movements from
tho Unfinished Symphony, by Schubert, This
alone should induce every lover of music to
attend. In addition, we are to have the
Ritmi and the Freysckutz overtures, selections
from the Midsummer Sight’s Dream, Schu
nian’s “Trieuxnerei,” Vieuxtemps’ “Reverie,”
Weber’s “Invitation a la Danse,” a trio for
horns and trombones by Bergmann, and
waltzes and polkas' by Strauss. The con'
eluding concert will be given this evening, for
which occasion a brilliant programme is
offered. The lovers of splendid music should
not miss this last chance of hearing the un
rivalled orchestra.
—At the Walnut a matinee performance of
the Ticket-of-Leave Man will be given to-day.
To-night Miss Lucille Western will appear in
the powerful sensational drama, The Child
Stealer.
—Mrs. John Drew and company will give a

- —A double bill is offered at the Chestnut.

'attractions.
—The Zanfretta Troupe still give their
'startling- acrobatic performances at tlie Ameri
can. A fine variety entertainment is given in
addition.
—Dnprez & Benedict’s Ministrels have
'struck a vein of good hick at their Seventh
Street Opera House, which produces rich
pay ore.
—Carndross & Dixey’s Eleventh Street
Hdnse is as well filled as ever. A fine bid for
to-night.
—Hermann gives his final performance this
evening, when,we hone, he will give his fare
well how to a full house. He will give a
matinee entertainment at 2 o’clock.
—On Monday night next Grau’s German
Opera Company an engagement
at the Academy of M uaic with Der Freuschutz.
Mesdames Fredefici, Johannsen and Hotter,
and.Messrs-Habelmann, Hinuner, Formes and
others will appear. The repertoire contains
some of the noblest operas in existence. The
sale of tickets wfll be continued at Trumpler’s
music store.
—Signor Bhtz will begin entertainments at
the Assembly Buildings on Monday evening
next, presenting a large number of new tricks
which he has brought with him from Europe.
—The Mace & Taylor Combination give
their performances this afternoon and even
ing,-at National Hail.
—The exhibition of Parlor Magic given last
Gening by Mr. Coleman Sellers, at the Seven
teenth Street Theatre, for tho benefit of the
Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
was an entire Tho characteristic
feature of the performance was the happy
mingling of surprising feats of legerdemain
with pseudo-scientific explanations. Thus
the illustration of the mechanical or vibratory
theory of heathy the handkerchief with seven
corners, and the trigonometrical discussion of
the problem of ten oeds for the eleven travel
ers, were irresistibly ludicrous, and elicited
hearty laughter and applause.
Many 61 the feats poriormed were of the
most surprising character, such as that of the
cards, which, selected by the audience, rose at
their bidding from a tumbler which each in
turn held in his own hand; tho card im
paled on a sword’s point from a' pack thrown
into the air, the rings extracted from a box
which had hung before the audience all the
evening, and many others. Several were
newly devised by Mr. Sellers, or modified es
sentially in their character. Thus,the famous
“egg hag” was performed with a simple silk
handkerchief■ lor an egg-developing appa
ratus,which rendered this most incomprehen
sible feat yet more mysterious, notwithstand
ing the “lucid” explanation on scientific prin
ciples.
■ The “Star Spangled Banner,” in which a
piece of white muslin by burning up was con
verted intd an 'American Flag was a very
pretty and successful “experiment.”
, Mr. Sellers made an effective appeal in be
half of the Society for whoso benefit he wa#
so generously laboring, and we do not doubt
that much will be gained by this effort for the
admirable charity concerned. '
We heard, in going out, countless expres
sions of wonder, curiosity and satisfaction,and
from this, as well as from the; frequent and
hearty applause, are siiro that our own en
joyment was fully equaled hv that of each
one in .this entire audience. The performance
was diversified by some songs by an
amateur quartette club,who well deserved the
enthusiastic applause which their perform
aucn'elicitcd.
