An Interesting Correspondence Between
Bbihop Hopkins and Dr. Page.

- Ns& In a future number I will show how I
replied to it, and how the Bishop's very sen

Yours, very respectfully,
DAVID COOK PAGE:,
- No. ~ 138 Robinson street, Allegheny.
BURLINGTON, qr., June 8, 1863.
Reverend and Dear Brother:—l have a
favor to ask of you, which I hope you will
be able to grant, without too great a tax
upon your time or your memory.
My_family, especially my eldest son;
have been importuning me for some years
to write my biography, and, to some extent,.
I feel bound to gratify' them. But the cir
cumstances which attended my refusal to
vote for myself after-the clergy had chosen
me for the offi roof Assistant Bishop in the
Convention at Harrisburg were so strange
that I wish to have some distinct statement
besides any own, in testimony. As the re
cord of your I journal Stands, I appear to'
have been the candidate of my Low Church
• brethren who gave me seventeen votes,
while I waa.voting for Rev. Dr. H. U. I On
derdonk. In point of fact, however, was
':'not their candidate," but had been chosen
, as the candidate of the other party in the
caucus which was hold the day liefore. My
desire to be known as a consistent church
raan throughout my whole course leads me
to,ask for a true account of the transaction,
and as you are one of my oldest personal:
.
friends, and were present at the time, I turn
to you as a faithful witness.
.1113," recollection of the matter is : as fol
lows: After the failure of our brethren at,
- the previous Convention to elect Dr.
Wil
son, my name wasisrought forward by the
High Church Party, with whom I had al
ways acted in accordance with the princi
ples of Bishop White, and I gave the notion
no encouragement because I had not been
three years in the ministry, and-did not .
think it right to place such a novice as my
.. self in so responsible an office. Rev. Messrs.
Montgomery, Kemper, Delancey and. Wel
ler (the editor of our High Church paper,
• the 'Christian Register,) were all. united
zealously in the project,' but at the subse
quent General . Convention, -I incurred - the
total loss of Montgomery's support, because
I had stood boldlyagainst Bishop. Hobart's
proposition to alter the liturgy, -notwith
, standing he had.prevailed upon all the
Bishops and the majority of the Lower
_House to vote_ for : it., The voice of
..the
Church, however,-proVed to be in agree-.
meet with my. coarse, and Bishop Hobart
•r himself subsequently „abandoned his
plan.
The "ollowing month of Way brought us
together at Harrisburg. You doubtless re
. member the meeting of our, party at the
hotel, when Mr. Binney made us an elo
quent speech, and the clergy were requested
to withdraw and choose their candidate.
Out meeting proceeded accordingly to vote
by ballot for the man, while I stood in a
corner with a few others, and took no part
in the voting. The result of the first vote
gave me the majority. On Mr. Mont
gomery's motion, the brethren voted a sec
ond time, and my majority was increased.
Objections were still maae, and a third
• vote was taken .when it appeared that , all,
but three united in my being the candidate.
At this point, Montgomery took a
_paper
from his pocket and said that he had here
the list of all the, names of the members of
the Convention, that we had one of a ma
jority in the clergy, and fourteen in the
laity, so that we were sure of our man; but
that in order to carry our election, it would
be necessary that brother Hopkins should
Note for himself.' He desired, therefore, to
know whether I.was pr pared to do so.
The question was evidently a grossly im
prqper one, and if I had not a real dread of
the office being . cast upon me, r should
have said so,.and replied that it was a
question which no man had - a right to pat,
that all thO meeting had to do was to choose
their candidate, and leave the result to
Providence. But I was perfectly ready to
. -state my own vibws and principles, and
answered at once, saying that my brethren
who had done me the favor to put my name
forward knew that I had given no en
couragement whatever to such a choice, that
I was quite too voting in the Ministry, and
did not consider myself qualified for so
serious a responsibility, and that I should
.certainly not vote for myself, under any
circumstances whatever. Rev. Mr. Weller
then addressed the meeting and mid that
he would not argue the general principle,
but wished to inform me of a,fact which I
probably did not know, viz.,
that there
were then in the House of Bishops two
Bishops who had been elected by their own
votes, and that in the present distracted
state of the diocese, he felt sure that no rea
sonable man could cengtire me if I followed
• the same course, for the peace of the
Church, &e.
, -To this I replied that I did not know that ,
fact, and was sorry to learn it now, but that
I should be more sorry to imitate what I
Could not help considering a very dangerous
example. I then proceeded" to say that I
could not be of any use in aiding them to a
worthy choice, because I knew` too little of
the clergy to be a properjulige of their
qualificationi, that I begged permission to
withdraw, but pledged my vote for any
man whom their wisdom should select, 1
.with the approbation of Bishop White. I
then withdrew, and it was after I left that •
Montgomery succeeded in getting a vote for I
Rev. Dr. Oncierdonk:
• s The next day I learned, on coining to
• Convention, that our Low Church brethern
had chosen no candidate, being hopeless of
success. But as their leaders were particu
larly opposed to Dr. Onderdonk, they had
concluded to.propose a conference, with the
view of agreeing on, myself, rather than
have the other.• Di. Bedell told me this
and begged me to assist in procuring this
conference. But I declined for the very
reason that its object was to elect me, and I
would not be a party in the movement. -.I
therefore took no share in the debate,which
ended by the refusal of the conference. At
this conclusion, when the House had voted
to proceed to the election, Dr. Bedell beck
oned to - me, being too unwell to leave his
chair, and told me that his partyr had re
solved to vote for me. I repined that I
-- hoped they would done such thing, that it
. would be useless, as we were all pledged,
and that I myself should vote for Dr. 0. He
answered that it was too late now to attempt
any change of their • resolutions, and that
they would do as he said in order to prove
that the High Churchmen had only gone
• against their own preference, by refusing
the friendly proposal which, as brethern in
Christ, they ought to have, embraced, 1113 the
best way of having real peace in' the dio
cese. The votes were then given. Bishop
White named me as one of the tellers, and
I declined, under 'the apprehension that
some of our men might have been
induced to 'rive way, and that
I might possibly* be suspected. For the
same reason I gave my own vote Open, in
order to prove that I had "redeemed my
_pledge. The result Was the election of
, Bishop Ondeidenli, while seventeen I.on ,
church votes were t e luen' for myself, mak

A Real Estate Mania.
Extract from a New York Letter.
To recur to the real estate - mania of
which I have spoken in foriner letters.
The passion _ for posses Sin - property is .
stronger than it was at any time during
.
the virar; _
' When' gait-Welkin rata' Wild. If
NeW York Were not an Lsland ' it'eould
spread; :but -being an island it Can not.
Every foot of land in this island is wanted
for. business or dwelling houses, and: as.
NT; York cannot stand still," . but must in
cre e her popaLatiop, whether she will or
not, the land beeomes.more and more val
uable each year..,-The time can not be far
ogiwhen every lot between the Battery and
Harlem river will be covered .by a house.
There will not -be room enough on the'
island for the-population, and those remain
ing "on: it :will have to . pay well for .the
privilege: Some sof the newspapers have
lately been speculating on this fact, and
the consequence is. that every man having
a few thousand dollars is rushing tip town
.to buy lots. Within a few weeks the de
sire to own lots anywhere above Sixtieth
street has risen to a perfect mania, and
prices which would have been considered
fabulous a few years ago, are now freely
paid for a few hundred square feet, of land
in the upper part of the island: -
The increase in the value of uptown
property, whether fashionable houses or a
piece of rock or swamp 25 feet by 100, has
been from 30 to 6 . 0 percent:in a couple of
years, and this' rate .of increase is sure to
to continue, for, as I have said, the island is
not large enough for the population it will .
soon have. A investments in real estate
are therefore, perfectly safe, and sure to
yield - good returns, and every man who
can scrape together enough money to buy
a house or a lot, is rushing up to Yorkville
or Harlem, and investing it. •
Property owners out of town are just as
sharp as the old stagers in town, .and most
of th.em are. deeply grateful to the news
papers for getting up - a rentsearce. Now
villages are being Laid out on land that
could have been bought a few yeors ago for
a hundred dollars an acre, and the number
of new buildings," mostly of the cottage"
style, projected within a radius of thirty
miles, promises to give employment to
every carpenter, mason, bricklayer, plas
terer and laborer in and around New York,
•as soon as the winter breaks up. Suppos
ing the present ratio of increase to continue
for ten years, the suburban population will
he larger in 1878 than the strictly local pop
ulation• is at the present time. New York
and its environs will then count about two
million souls:

Married Women and Maids.
The Imperial Review is troubled with the
question whether married, women should
-dance, and it expresses its opinions in a
long article, from which we make an ex
treat. It says
There is something almost unseemly in
the spectacle of a half dozen young married
women walking - off _with some of the best
partners in the room, while-a row of girls
are sitting.neglected against the wall.. _Nei
ther ignorance nor thoughtlessness can be
pleaded. in -excuse. Womell thoroughly
know women, whatever else they may
knOw ; and there is riot one of them that is
not vividly conscious of what heart-burning
it:causes to a poor girrth hear - the music and
watch the many twinkling feet of a ball
room, and play the almost ignominious part
of passive spectator. Grown up women
clutching at all the toys or sweetmeats off a
ChriStmas tree at a juvenile party, would
not be a more unnatural spectacle.. Grown
up men eager to win the stakes at a round
game-got up for lath, home for the holidays,
would not be more inhuman or cruel. We
are constrained to plead for tenderness and
consideration on the part of young women
who are married toward young women who
are not. Might.not Sidney's words, as he
handed the draught of water to the dying
soldier at Lutzen be profitably remembered?
"Thy need is greater than mine."
