TEE NEW English Ministry, under D'ls
racli as Premier, has encountered, in its first
month of power, such a formidable combin
ed opposition, in the Commons, on the
question of the 'lrish Church, that serious
apprefiernions were felt yesterday, by its
friends, that it was about to be beaten in a
division. The vote was to have been taken
last night. If the majority ' should .be
against Ministers, they have but two alterna
.. tives before them, viz : to resign office in
favor of a Liberal cabinet, or dissolve Parlia
ment and appeal to a new election;
IT WILL BE STRANGE If the Legislature
should close its present session without un
-wittingly passing some, measure that will
prove detrimental to the great petroleum in
terest of the State, for there seems to be a
determination on the part of professional
bores to snake through some bill that wilt
seriously -interfere with the prosperity of
those engaged in that trade. No sooner is
an odious , measure nipped in the bud
through the prompt action of the oil deal
ers and refiners, than a new one bursts out
and has to be met. There has just been in
troduced for legislation a bill providing that
all crude oil-shall be guaged by local inspec
ors in Venango county before shipped to
any poinL There is not the shadow of
reason - for such a law. --'1.13 :passage would.

The counsel for the defense will open with
an argument from Judge qtrILTIB on Mon
day. Until their line , of defense shall be

express an opinion as to its character. The

The Christian Convention, we announced
some time ago, was held In Philadelphia
last week. The address of welcome was
delivered by. Rev. Dr. Newton, of the Pro
testant Episcopal Church, after which Rev.
John -Hall, D. D., of New York, followed
with nn, address on l'Cbristian Activity."
,George H. Stuart, 'Esq., was ! chosen
.per
Chairman of the Convention. The
discussions were signalized'forthe kind, lov
ing spirit that prevailed. Prominent among
the laymen, were Judge Smith, •of Boston,
D. L. Moody, of Chicago, Wm.. Welsh, of
Philadelphia and ,others. Five topics were
discussed. We can only give a condensed
.view of each one, owing to the lack of space.
"First, "What can the laymen,our
Cuhrches do for Christ ?" It was shown that
a layman of a Church is • annointed, com
missioned and required to be j a prophet,
priest and king in his Divine Master's ser
vice. The, Scriptures` give 'thii authority.
.Laymeri may hold - up the hands of minis
ters; pray for. them, sympathize and co
operate with 'than. - Ttiey ihouldimProVe
opportunities to , speak and work for
Christ. They'"may do much good by hold
ing meetings for prayer, instruction and
out-door Services. Second, "What can `the
women. of the Churches - do for, Christ."
Women have examples in "Mary," , "Prisr,
cilia," "Dorcas" and others, who were
helpers for`Christ.' Th - e Chnicti Of the' pres

As the great moving day approaches, the
question of rents assumes more and more
importance. The rents for stores will pro
bably be lower than last year, though but
little, while rents for private dWellings will
mainly remain at . about the same I
figures as heretofore; in some sec
tions, however, an advance is being
made. Quite a vigorous attempt was made
by landlords early in the season to secure
a general advance, but the immediate de-
mand for houses was not equal to the ex
pectation, and the effort hoiled.

keep rents to the "maximum for a considefira

A Mexican Booth.
The attempted murder of Juarez was
modelled after Booth's more successful at
tempt. Colonel Adalid, for two years Pre- :
feet of Toluca, was the chief assassin.
Juarez's box at the Yturbide is on the sec
ond floor, but furthest off from the stage of
any box in the house: It is close to the
front entrance to the ; building, arid exceed
ingly easy of access: The Colonel had a
guard of twelve ex-Imperial lieutenant's ,
who, dressed as citizens, were to .mount
fleet horses, and, having an extra horse for
him, were to appear in citizens' dress (so as
not. to excite suspicion) near the doors of,
the theatre at nine— o'clock r. - si. '
or shortly after the, curtain was raised.
Adidid was to enter the box, the door of
which is in the rear, shoot and stab Juarez
and then secure his horse and flee. To far
ther aid him, fifteen or twenty or the con
spirators were to place themselves near the
box and around the doors so as to interrupt
the passages and such as would follow the
assassin. 1 The assassination accomplished,
Adalid.end his men were to make for the
Citadels; or arsenal, on the road of - La Pie
dad, and where the Seventh Regiment was
to move to from the palace. The garrison
at the Citadels were to have hauled the
flag
down and run up the flag of Carlotta. Fifty
men of tlic Seventh Regiment were to have
proceeded to the residences, of the members.
of Juarez's Cabinet and secure and hold them
as prisoners. Folly one-half of this garri
son, or 9,000 officers and men, were pledged
to their assistance. The discovery was
made by the interception of a note from one
of the conspirators to Col. Garza, in eom
mend of the Seventh Regiment, which is
composed mainly of young men belonging
to the aristocratic families of the State of
Guanajuato. , The note by mistake was
',banded to a Lieutenant- of Juarez's body
guard; who read it, and immediately After-,
wards proceeded to confer with Gen. Re
guies. . The result was the discovery of all
'the -plans and measures on foot to further
them. Cols.' Adalid and Garza are in the
