NEW PARISH
• The Bishop called attention to the feet

though connected4with, the Diocese of
Pennsylvania, ha&not been represented
in the Convention shoe 1865. He aug
gested that some action be 'taken in the
matter by the Convention.
Mr. Brunot thought according to cus

to make Impel application for admission,
it not having been represented for three
- Rev. J. P. Spaulding offered a resole
Lion that the Parish be admitted to repre
sentation lathe present , Convention. j
Rev.. Mr. Esgar thoUght the matter
could easily be settled ,by allowing the
delegates,from the.Paritih named to pee

on Admission of Lay . Deputies, who
would report to the Convention their Ili
gibility.. •
Several motions were here made in ref
erence to the point in dispute, none of
which, however, prevailed. '
Mr. Ring finally moved to amend t r ee
original resolution by instioeting the
Secretaries to enroll Trinity Parish, Con
neautville, upon the list of Parishes 'n
titled to representation. Carried.

ALL . SAINTS PARISH.
Rev. M. A. Tolman offered the follow
ing:
Reaotised," That AU • Saints Church,
Pittsburgh, bettdmitted lido union with
this Convention as.--soon as the Bish
op shall certify to the Convention that
the worship in said church is in confor.
ratty with the, doctrines, discipline and
worship of the Protestant Episcopal
Church of the United states of America.
Gen. Purviance moved to amend by
adding the words, 'and of this Diocese."
Mr. Brunet said he opposed the reso
lution. He had all confidence in the
Bishop, and felt that' he, in reference to
the matter, would do right. But he had
no confidence ,in a congregation which
had departed so far from the customs,
usages and doctrines of the Episcopal
- Church as the parish in queition. They
might for a time conform to the rules re
quired, get admitted into union with the
Diocese. and then resume their old prac
tices. He, therefore opposed the reso
lution.
Mr. M. A. Woodward said the Conven
tion could not do away with the responsi
bility in this matter. It was their duty
to act upon it and settle is themselves.
They could not shirk their duty by plac
ing the whole question in the .hands of
the Bishop, and thus':compelling him •to
-bear a •burden which Should be borne by
t the Convention. itself. , - .He had attended
the Services in All Saints Church; , .and
'could not have told that it was a Pretes
t/nit Episcopal or any kind of Protestant.
Church had he not been so 'Wormed.
He strongly favored the resolution.

merely on a sweeping assertion, that any
pariah was not eligible to union with the
Diucese,because of non -conformity with
its doctr ines; Or uliages. ne*.wished the

The Convention. however, could net re
solve itself Into a 'court and try the Rec
tor of the parish, who, by Virtue of the
Constitution, was a member of the body.
Rev. Mr. Karch, of Kittaning, said he
thought the Rector of 'All Saints"
Church should be allowed to speak in his
own behalf. He believed the Convention
had nothing to do with the parish but to
admit it. He then reviewed at consid
erable length the service and.practices
followed in All Saints Church. as
had been witnessed by himself, and said
he had not observed auydeparturalrom
the cardinal ' rules and ordinances
of the Protestant Episcopal Church.
The only departures, so far as he had
observed, were merely slight variations
which were merely matters , of ,taste, and
not liable to condemnation. If, however,
in - teaching the doctrines there were her
esies, Alte guilt did not rest upon, the peo
ple but the Rector,and he was so surroun
ded by the Presbyters, whose duty it
was promptly to report such misdemean
ors, and demand a trial before a proper
tribunal. .
The gentleman continued at considera
ble length to 'examine the question In all
its bearings, and finally, at one o'clock.'
gave way to, a motion foradjournment,
with the provision that helves entitled to

Convention reassembled at three
o'clock, Bishop Kerfoot presiding.
DISCUSSION RESUMED.
Rev. Mr. If.archer, who had the . floor
at the adjournment of the morning ses
sion, resumed his remarks in relation_ to
the difficulty of All Saints Church. He
said during the intermission he had had
further time to consider the 'question,
and the more he reflected the, more fully
convinced he becanui-that the resolution
offered, referring to All Saints Church,
would not meet the issue,' and that the
shortest way wasio receive the lay dep
uties from:' the Church, and then , if
any connected, either clerical or
lay, had offended, let them be
promptly brought to trial before
a proper tribunal. Let us look at
this question in the light of pure and
simple justice. He contended that in
settling the question, it was but proper
to refer to the. usages. and practices in
the apostolic churches, and compare
those earlier' churchs customs with those
of the present day. He then read selec.
from Kuitz's, Mosheimq, Hagenbaugh,
and other church histories in support of
the idea that the early church was far in
advance of the ,present organization in
inculcating and conducting their govern
ment by the
_practices now so strongly
Condemned, and if 'The sentence of
heresy were written upon the parishes
now persisting in these practices, then
the same sentence must be written on
the church of the early fathers. In re
capitulation the speaker said be hadbeen
charged with being a ritualist, a charge
whicn be emphatically denied.
Mr. Coo*. now 'obtained the floor, but
yielded it to Rev. J. S. Miller, Rector of
All Saints Parish, who said he wished to
make a few statements in order to close
the discussion, which was already pro
tracted at too great a length. He then
reviewed the act of a previous Conven
tion in admitting the Parish, which
cams before tbenovitti the saute 4terter,
tho same government, the , eame usages
and practices as on the last Sunday
mornin, Hp was willing. now to con
form to ` the law of the Church whenthat
law was properly and legally expressed.
He did not wish the laity of the parish to
suffer at ails:: They were not at all re
sponsible ftehis acts,end trtion him rest
ed the responsibility of departing, if
there were any departures, from the
Church law. He did not, however, on
this point concede the right,- of the Zion-.
vention to try him on his doctrines
or beliefs. the - Xuatterof services
he contended that*as simply - following
out the ~ principles •and practices of the
early Chttrcheitrid expressly denied that
any such services had been conducted
or any such doctrine 'taught in All
Saints Parish as bad been. charged. In
'conclusion,lie asked the Convention to
disconnect him with the Parish and take
a direct, vote on the qlleElthal of admit
ting the:Parish.
Mr. Cooper, resuming floor, moved
that in all future discussions the speeches
be limited to ten mintites, and that the
discussion releviud to All Saints Church
be closed at five o'clock, the vote to be
the taken. The motion was atnended,
limiting the xpeectioato, live minutes,
and carried. •

Mr.' Ptirtiance 'Again called for the

Rev. Mr. Thorp next obtained the

the practices in the early church, by

called the laW' of the Protatitant EV&
copal Church.
Mr. Tolman thought there was a dis
crepancy in the two resolutions offered
thus far in the matter. The first in sub
stance declared that the All saints
Church was, not wanted in the Diocese.
In making his resolution he had endeav
ored to so word it that this difficulty
might be avoided, by, granting authority
to the Bishop to admit the Parish aa-soon
as he was satisfied that it conformed in
all respects to the discipline of the church.
Mr. Brunotthought the Parish asked
for admission as a corporation—Rector,
Warden and vestry—and that as such,
where the corporation in some of ita pro
visions did not meet with the taroper
constitutional requirements, he thought
the Convention might very:consistently,
and without injuring any one, decide
upon the Question at once.
Mr. E. S. Golden distinguished be
tween the Rector and laity of a parish,
and he thought the parish should not be
convicted for the irregular usages', and
practices in doctrine of its Rector. When
the parish as a corporation asked for
admission, and presented a charter
which was fxind to be in steam
' dance with the Constitution, 17 the
request should be granted, in! all
justice. He was in factor of conducting
things in an orderly and lawful mariner.
If the Rector of All Saints was' on ',trial
now, it was a very inforinal proceeding,
and he did not wish to sit on such a case.
Rev. 'Mr. Miller again claimed! the
floor, and stated that he had refused to
obey the Bishop, because he regarded it
in the light of a penal punishment.
The Bishop stated that no- oilicial ad-.
monition, in the sense of a penal punish
ment, had been served. The admonition
was simply a requirement for the future,
and had no reference to the past.
Mr. Thos. M. Howe eased the debate
with a few remarks, in which he stated
that his objection to the admission of All
Saints Church was that the Rector bad
Manifested a contumacious ppirit in re
fusing to receive the admonition of the
Bishop. While that was the relation of
the parish, Tor the Rector was a past of
the parish, towards the constitutional
authorities, it would be wise to post Pone
the matter indefinitely.,
THE BALLOTINO. F
The hour of five o'clock having arriv
ed, the Bishop announced the order of
the day to be the vote on the question of
postponement of the subject according to
Mr. Purviance's amendment. The yeas
and nays were called, with the following.
result: Clerical, yeas 17, nays 17; Lay,
yeas 22, nays .5. •
The motion to postpone indefinitely
was declare,d lost.
The question then occurred tm:•ltir.
Tolman 's resolution to admit the Parish
at the discretlbn of the Blehop.
The yeas and nays were again called.
With the following result: Clerical, {yeas
8, nays 26; Lay, yeas 3, nays 25.
The resolution was accordingly! de
clared lost.. • • i •
The vote then recurred on tneresolu
tion as presented at the Convention in
1868, and which now came 'alp as unfin
ished business. The resolution read
Besolved, That AllSaintsParish, Pltte
burgh, be admitted into Union wth this
;Diocese. '
The yeas and nays were: Clerical,
yeas 7, nays 24; Lay, yeas 2, nays 24. '
The question was accordingly decided
in the negative. So the matter ended,
the Pariah not being admitted.
Mr. Cooper moved that when the 'Con
vention adjourn, it do so until half.past
seven o'clock in the evening. Carried.
Mr. Hay moved that4hd Treasurer of

Charlotte Blume 43 , Fifth avenue, has
adopted the system of selling pianos very
low, Air strict cask; or will, at less than
catalogue prices, take part cash and the
balance In monthly or quarterly install
ments, with interest on unpaid parts un
til settled. Thus, none need deprive
their children of at once the greatest ao
complishinent, as well as the easiest, the
most profitable, and most genteel means
of providing for their own means of sup
port. Mrs. Blume sells nothing but first
class pianos from the celebrated facto=
ries of Wm. Knabe & Co., and Haines'
Brothers; 'also, organs and melodeons
made by George A. Prince it Co., Pres
cott Bros., George Cook it Co., Loring it

Unrivaled.
The . reputation of Pittsburgh restau
rants and dining saloons is equal to that
of any city in the United States, not
alone on account of our excellent Market
facilities, but because we have a few es
tablishments In, the city, the proprietors
of which take a special pride in their
busines.s and endeavor to conduct it., in
such a manner as receives the approval
of their patrons; and the otheth, if they
desire to do a living business, must ap
proximate to something near the standard
established by these men. Our friend -
HOlteheimer, of the Continental, Fifth
avenue, next door 'to the Postoilioe; is
one of the leading spirits in the business,
and the Continental is the leading estab- t i
lishment. •
Wanted to Fight.
Martin Glimartel and John McManus,
neighbors- and residents of the Third
ward, Allegheny, h.tve been on unfriend
ly relations for some time past, which
cropped out more noticeably yesterday
in the case of John, who, according to
Martin's statemeit ■ manifested an ex
ceedingly anxious desire to chastise him.
Animated by this spirit John is said to
have made divers tierce threats of his in
tentions, which so alarmed Gilmartin that
he hastened to seek the protection of
the law. Hence, the information for
surety of 'the peace before Alderman
Mullen yesterday, in which Gilmartin ap..
pears as prosecutor, and John as defend
ant. A warrant for John's arrest was
Issued.
