We publlsk fkle oiorntDg Ike speech of .fudge ViRKiNA, delivered at ShelbyvlMe, on the 14th instant, dtMmsetag m the peoolter style, force end ability, which characterizes all hts public efforts, the political questions now before the country. The Judge commences with an historical review of the inHuguratioa of constitutional government, and then traces its decline, or, we m»y s »y, what he regards as the end of the experiment. From this standpoint he treats of reconstruction, negro suffrage, a protcctlvs tariff, the natural tendency of capital to oppress lultor, the wicked legislation of the radical Congress, and the prospects for the future. The views of Judge I’KHKitta upon the condition of public affairs arc original In both thought and expression, and they are calculated to arrest the attention of all who are laboring for the preservation of

constitutional government.

Political Mratef y.

We published a few days ago the mutual administration correspondence between Governor onn, ol South Carolina, and General sick MW. There appears to be another side to the question, differing totally from that presented by Governor onn. Mr. CAMMtm.f., the senator elect fcom South Carolina, la In Washington, and expresses Ids dissent from th" views expressed by Governor Onnln his htter to Ce-icml StCKt.iw. lie contends that tho legislature of South Carolina would have passed slay law had the people desired one, or had then- been the apprchonslone of bloodabed o wbi 'h Governor ohr speiks. Tho explanation seems to bo that General SiCKt.fi* Governor (Min had nrranired teemselves elected fniicd Stales Senators, which was supposed to be an easy-tblng, as General sickmw could control the popular vote, while G >vernor Oku secured the General’s nomination with his own. k Is apprehended that the g.mie has been spoiled by the changes Of the military commanders. This representation of I'm- matter accounts for tho remarkable affection which exlsl- between Governor ORH and General !*k ki.iw, but In this case, as it has tioon In manv others, both gentlemen appear t > have been victims of misplaced confidence. j, if The Uepubllean papers say their Senators will oppose Impeachment from sordid and personal motives—that they are too venal to discharge their duties honorably. WKNkXLL I’lttf.LirM says neither the Thirty-ninth nor the Fortieth Congress bad sense enough to draw a statute that would hold water; yet the Republicans and radicals tell us that such a corrupt and stupid set of men are the only authority worthy of regard In the government, and that all other branches, and the (institution Itself, must be made subordinate

RISE Of CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT. To protect the governed from unjoat aggreenoae on the part of the governors, the last ex prnHeMy sate to have been first suggested by Sir Henry Vane, all others having failed, wae that of government under a written constitution, such government properly forming a new class by the description of constitutional gov-

ernment.

Our fathers wore the first to make trial of

the expedient.

on the Uth of September. t7*7, a constitution for tb© United States was completed, the lost article of which declared that: "The ratification of the conventions of nine States shall be sufficient for the establishment of this Constitution bet*cen the states so ratifying By the 21st of Juno, 1739, the following States, numbering nine, bad ratified the Constitution, and our constitutional Union, and Government, on that day, became living

existence.

There then remained four of the original thirteen States, existing in all their Integrity, severally clothed with all the powers of government out of the Union. During the two years next succeeding the date of the birth of the Union, those four States, with governments formed of their own volition, free from dictation by the Federal power, one by one, and at different times, voluntarily, as sovereign bodies In to doing, acceeded to the Union under the Constitution. Perfect States may exist out of as well asm the Union. The Constitution constituted the bond of the confederation, the terms upon which It existed. Our example, In adopting a constitutional government became contagious. France, then writhing under the oppression ot her rulers, and anxiously seeking for some plan by which they might be restrained from outraging toe citizens, applied the newly invented check of a constitution. Mexico, and the South American Republics, a few years later, placed their people under what tbey then supposed the certain, Invulnerable shield of constitutional

protection.

But the experiment of constitutions has

not been as successful as was antjc.i

P's* may say there h** "tmotl a failure of

and governments.

cm- r France, Mexico and the South American Republics, usurpations of the leaders of dominant parties, or factions, In utter and contemptuous disregard of c onstitutional provisions and oaths to support them, soon placed the government outside of constitutional restraints, and perjured usurpers reinstated despotic power In place of constitutions. These were kicked aside as worthless parchment.

Despotic power retains Us sway.

In this country, the life of the constitution was longer, the struggle for its preservation more determined and suecessful, but Its death was ultimately effected by means precisely like those which bad extinguished constitutional governments In other countries where It had been adopted. It was but a few years after the adoption rf our late constitution, now deceased, before dissatisfaction was expressed wttbltin the North. It was discovered, in New England, that the Southern .States were wrongly constructed, and the desire to reconstruct them was there expressed. But It wss soon found that the constitution stood In the way, and the sentiment was then and there announced that that Instrument was a league with bell, was not morally binding, and should not be obeyed. From that time system «tlc efforts to procure an administration of the government outside of the constitution, and In violation of tho rights of the Southern States, were put forth. Those efforts were resisted, and successfully, by the Democratic party, down to 1880, and peace, onion and prosperity were continued. In ISoH the questions arising upon the measures proposed by the Republicans were, by common consent, referred to the tribunal made the supreme arbiter by tho constitution, and that tribunal decided the measures to be In violation of our national bond of union;

outside, In short, of the constitution.

Tho disloyal, disunion Republicans declared that tbey would regard no such decision; organized a purely sectional party, headed by sectional candidates, thus arraying the powerful North against the less powerful South, and gave out in speeches that if they got possession of the government they would wield It for tbs accomplishment of their party purposes, regardless of constitutional obligations, as judicially declared. At the same time they were belching forth, from day to day, the foulest slanders and most bitter vituperation against the people of the Southern States and their institutions; and, in addition, were striving to stir up civil war in their midst, and finally did actually commence It under old John Brown, their martyr and political

saint.

It D fortunate for the Republican party, but unfortunate for the country, that what is commonly known as tho "provoke law” of Indiana, was not then In force In tho United States. Had It been, and been enforced, tbetr would have been no secession and rebellion, but the leaders of the Republican party would have been in prison for attempting to provoke them by aggravating and Infamous threats, assaults and other outrages upon the South. Tbey would thus have been compelled to desist from attempts at disturbing the peace, and It would

not have been disturbed.

And here I wish to say that a most dangerous application Is given to this law by the magistrates of Indianapolis. Tbey bold that It applies to criticisms upon city officials, thus accomplishing perfect suppression of liberty of speech on the part of Democrats in relation to Itepubllcan dty administration. If a Democrat denounces Republican official malfeasance, be has the happiness of being prosecuted criminally, fined, anil perhaps Imprisoned. ^ It Is well for the Republican# bow that this law, with this construction, Is not operative In the United States. Were it, Johnson might have the Republican editors and leaders generally. especially the Republican Congressmen, In Jail every day. But, to return to our narrative. Following their sectional aggressions upon the South, the Republicans, In 1880, with the declaration upon their tilumphant lips that no decision of the supreme court on constitutional questions would be regarded, were elected to power. And the fact that these Itepublleans had systematically disregarded the constitution as individuals and by States, because they had the power,

gave meaning to their threats.

Under these circumstances, the South thought Johnson, Stanton, Sickles, Frellnghuysen, Butler, Brownlow, Cushing, and others, now leading radicals, thought the rights of the Southern States were In peril. Those States, for better security, attempted to quietly withdraw from the Union, and the Republicans, till tbey made up their minds that, by war. tbey could destroy them, were In favor of letting the "Southern sisters depart In peace,” of letting "the Unton slide.” What now was to be done? How should the difficulties be settled? The Southern States had withdrawn, or attempted to withdraw, from the Union because tbey believed their safety demanded the act; and that, under such circumstances, they had a right to do It, Tbey were m sincere, and more honest than the Republicans. The Republicans bad first broken, and they threatened to continue to disregard the GoMtttution; of this there was no doubt. Had tba Sooth a right to withdraw under sueb etsenmetaoces? New England formerly maintained this right. A long list of eminent steteemn had denied the right

to coerce a Stale.

In such circumstance^ tn this time of dan-

ger to the Sout

honest difference of

opinion as to constitutional rights, what should have been done? What would wise men, statesmen, have done? The Democrats were In favor of peaceful measures—for restoring and perpetuating the Union. The? thought these were more In accordance with the spirit of Christianity; with that freedom of opinion and judgment to which ah men are entitled, with the mutual respect which the opinions of those differing with each other should command; and with sn enlightened civilization and the dictates ot humanity; and were certainly more In accordance with the pecn Diary Interests of the masses, because they would cost but little, and would be certainly successful. The nations of Europe, In modern times, succeed mainly by such means, tn adjusting aod readJusting their confederations and unions, and an enlightened publlo opinion approves their course. Governments founded in consent are founded In freedom. Governnseale founded In force, war. Mood and eoaqacet ane founded In despotism. War Is barbarous, licensed murder, rape and rapine. If Engfrkl would enter upon peaceful anwsurss rac securing union and friendship with Ireland, iaatoad ef resorting to the sword of tyranny, she would receive the applause of nsanktod. But the Republicans, having come to the conclusion that, by war, tbey could destroy the Southern States, resolved on It; asserting the sentinwt, shocking to freemen and humanity, that the Union and Government were and would bo worthies* until bathed end saturated with

blood.

Tho Democrats expressed the fear that war might net result in foe restoration of hnrmony smouff foe State*, Out rather la foe deanUMon

of s large section of the Union.

For this they were ebargsd with dMeyalty, and many of them thrown Into prisons. Against sueb high-handed measures foe Democrat h appealed to foe protection of foe Constitution.

to tbe best form

The most

prominent argument urged against a despotism was tbe fact tbat tbe despot violated wo-

can ctes

men and the rights of persons and property of all classes at pleasure. Testing our government by this admitted practice of despotism, what one more completely conforms to it? After Governor Morton had dispersed tbe legislature, overthrown tbe constitution and set up bis autocracy, I have no hesitation to saying as many women were violated, and more Innocent citizens consigned to beggary, to dungeons and tbe grave, by arbitrary power tn Indiana alone than were, tn tbe same period of time. In all bis dominions, by that polygamous Mohammedan monster,the Sultan of Turkey. The executive bell which summoned tbe citizens who might be under executive disfavor, to the Hostile, tbe Tower, or a Baratbsum, several of which were conatructed at Indianapolis, was tapped often, while during tbe same period liberty of speech, of tbe press, and of peaceful assemblies, and Jegal elections were suppressed, and all differing In opinion with tbe despot, held every-

thing at his mercy. RTCONSTnrcTTON.

During tho war and at Its close, the Siuthem States existed, os such, in all their Integrity, and were members of tbe Union. Some of tbetr officers were dead and the offices «*- t, but tbe machinery for MU»w •»« vacani by electing —uswi. fust as perfectly as It

tb rndlana. and it was tbe right of the

people of each State to perfect the organization of tbe State government, and reform its constitution, or tho Declaration of Independence Is a lie. No reconstruction by Federal power was needed, nor was legal. Rut the Rapublicans, by the arbitrary power of the Federal Government, unconstitutionally dlstroyed those States, as well as the Constitution and Union, and having demolished, they are now undertaking to rebuild, to reconstruct. It Is Idle for us to express opinions on tbe subject. The Republicans have, and will have, unchecked control for two years to come. Tbey arbitrarily expai from Congress as many Democrats as may be necessary to prevent effectual opposition; foe subject ie exclusively with them; they wifi heed no advice or counsel from any one outside of their foctioo, and they will arbitrarily dispose of foe question in their own time, during foe next two years. It is useless for Democrats to propose anything touching tbe matter, for tbey are powerless to aceompl sh anything. The Republicans Intend to replace the governments they have destroyed by negro organizations, and we have only to wait and see tbe result of tbe experiment; In the meantime paying pretty heavy bills as the cost of it. We can

not prevent; we can only protest.

or NEC no suffrage,

I shall say but little. It Is a part ot the Republican plan of reconstruction, being necessary, not for the ibe good of tbe country, but to the ascendancy of the Republican party. If negro suffrage tails, tbe Republican party dies. The Democrats In Indiana are powerless in tho premises. The question will be settled by the present Republican Congress and Htate legislatures, as shall in ofiinion suit the Interest of the Republican party. It is Idle to waste words about it. My own Impression Is (hat negro suffrage will neces-* sitate tbe maintenance of a large, expensive and despotic standing army, or be mv’ he pretext lor It, to keep the peace in the c..utb. if not throughout the Union. The time lor negro suffrage has not come. Tbe negro is not ready for it. if tbe Republicans force negro suffrage on the South, they must impose It on all the States, or he branded as inconststant hypocrite. I think many of the Republicans are beginning to fear the result of the experiment and are secretly endeavoring to thwart it, 'I'he negroes may not consent to be permanent Republican automatons. Some say the negro is a child ot Cod, and, therefore, ought to vote to protect himself. So Is a monkey a child of God, and so Is a jackass, and tbey need protection; but that docs not prove that tbey are qualified to exercise the right of

by capital. Capital ts independent, self-..., porting, and ean bold out on a strike Oil labor ts starved into subjection, and slavery. This Is one of foe principal causes of the gnat inequality among men, and of foe oppranion and enslavement of the massea. Heretofore, foe remedies adopted have been, aggrariaa Uwa, abrogation of debts, repudiation, etc. Thus: In Egypt, King Bocchosis interfered to release debtors from tbe oppressive, enslaving grasp of capital. Tbe Hebrews established thejubllec, by which, every fifty years, property was redistributed. Of this institution tt

is said:

" Unlike the Sabbatical year, it did not annul debts. Tbe design of this institution was to check tbe rise of any great inequality of social condition, and to prevent foe rich from oppressing and enslaving foe poor, or from pernmaenily appropriating their lands.” Again; to tbe time of building the second temple, says Prideanx: “ The burden which foe people underwent in tbe carrying on of this work being very great, care was takes to lelieve them From a much greater burden, foe oppressing usurers; which they then, in great misery, toy under, and had much greater reason to complain of. For foe rich, taking advantage of the necessities of tbe meaner sort, bad exacted heavy uaury of them; making them pay foe centeslms for money* lent them; that is, one per cent, for every month, which amounted to twelve per cent, for tbe whole year: so that tbey were forced to mortgage their lands, and sell their children into servitude, to have wherewith to buy bread for foe support of themselves and their families: which, being a manliest breach of tbe law of God, Nehemiab, on bearing thereof, resolved forthwith to remove so great an Iniquity; and he caused it to he enacted that ail should return to their brethren whatsoever had been exacted of gage on account thereof.” So in Greece. Solon was appointed to re - organize foe government and laws of Athens, when great distress prevailed among the people. says tbe historian: “ Of all foe grievances the most urgent was the condition of foe poorer class of debtors, and to their rtlief Solon’s first measure, foe me notable SeUuchtheia, or shaking off of burdens, was directed. The relief which It afforded was complete and Immediate. It canceled at once all those contracts in which foe debtor had borrowed on the security of either bis person or his land. It swept off all the numerous mortgage pillars from the landed properties in Attica, and left the land free from all past claims.” [Tbe mode of mortgaging land in Greece was foe erection on it of a pillar of braes, Inscribed with tbe amount and terms of tbe loan or debt, and name of the mortgagee.} In Rome an exactly similar course wae pursued by the rich; the poor were reduced to starvation, and finally made a strike, seconded to mono tacer In mart, and would not return to (ha dty Oil an abolition of present debt*, and security against future oppression

1 shall not discuss tbe subject; it is threadbare. I did not hear Kelly, but am informed that at Indianapolis be attempted to maintain the proposition that by a protective tariff Indiana could so diversity her labor ante manufacture whistles out of pigs tatls. molasses oat of potatoes and wine from turnips. We need a protective tariff In the West from New England not old. You will expect me to say something upon the PUBLIC DK0T. In four years time tbe Republicans contracted a debt larger than any nation m tbe world, except Great Britain, bad contracted since Its existence, and more burdensome than that of Britain, on account of tbe high rate of interest. f j The resons this debt grew to 6uch a mountain so suddenly are two: First—The embezzling of so large a portion of the public funds by Republican leaders aod office pets and relations, for private use, constituting the private fortunes tbsy are now enjoying In ease and luxury and debauchery. Second—The Government gave three dollars in bonds for every two dollars received In currency. This debt constitutes a perpetual mortgage on foe labor of tbe poor of tbe conntry to tbe rich bondholders. The laboring men bave got this mortgage to pay. Tbe bitterness of tbe burden to increased by foe consciousness that much of It was created by wastefulness, and all of It for money used In destroying, not producing wealth. Tbe capital of the country In reality pays but little of this debt. The capitalists advance some of It in foe first inrtenee, hot charge it in foe bill against labor. VF Ifraetrater When foe ImHanepoft* €hw Company makes ont a bill to tbe consumer It la fops: Gas, so much: Government tax on the same, so much. Total, so much. Now who pays the Gas Company’s Government tax? Does the company? Thie debt doee not directly affect tbe amount of wealth produced from year to > ear in foe country, bet effects Us dfstir <rton. Thus, one ms» bae a farm of ontfrandretl acres clear oflncumbrace. It produces a year. Thie fanner enjoys the benefit of foe entire amount. Hla neighbor bss IIkewlee a farm of one hundred ecres which produces $1,500 • year; but on this farm, bis wealthy creditor

Further examples might be added. These will suffice. Such, then, being the natural tendency of capital to oppreae labor, that tendency ought rather to be cheeked by good legislation than speeded forward by ba^; WICKED LEGISLATION, Such as acts exempting foe rich from taxation, and for paying them in gold, while tbe laborers are compelled to take depredated paper. This being wrong, bsd, wicked legislation in its inception, tt snould be substituted by good. Tbe bonds should be taxed and paid in paper; and If tbe justice of Nehemiab, the prophet of God, is to be administered, these bondholders should be compelled to restore the illgotten gains they have made. JPaytog tbe bonds in paper may cause a derangement of values by a plethora of currency te some extent; but it can not makeifoinga wane for tbe poor than at present. If the country were in a healthy condition now, I would be opposed to such expansion of paper. But in Us present state, produced by the acta ot capital and foe interests of corrupt politicians, it is a measure of relief to labor. One thing only Is held up by foe bondholders as screening, protecting them from such payment and taxation, and that is tbe Constitution. Once it prohibited foe impairing of contracts, and tho making of anything bat gold and silver a legal (aider. Bat we have no constitution under Republican rule. It hie become obeolato. When private debtors appealed ts it agsmrt legislation for payment in paper, they won told,by plainly false judicial decisions, it is true, that it wae no protection to them. Those decisions, we observe, till overruled, must be respected, and made of general application. When the humble citizan appealed to tbe Constitution against arbitrary arrests. Imprisonments. military commissions, mob violence upon freedom of speech, the press, and foe sacredness of tbe household castle, be was told that the Constitution was a disloyal document, foil of treason, add could afford him no protection—tbat it was not in force. Tbe bondocracy said this. When Governor Morton set np his autocracy, in violation of tbe Constitution, wo were told that that instrument was an inconvenient obstacle in his way, and hod been nut aside until a more convenient season. The Constitution will never be respected or observed again by a party that has spit upon it so often, except In cases where selfishness may Induce It to do so. Now, a constitution that is only to be held operative so far as it protects the officials in tyranny and foe rich In oppressing foe poor, Is no constitution for me. I want no such Government. If foe Constitution Is not in force to protect one class and all daaaes, it ought to be discarded as to ail. Tbe people will never long tolerate the outrage of foe contrary doctrine. If foe bondholders are to go to foe people on such argument!*, foe controversy must be short, foe decision speedy and emphatic. Tbe Constitution will never be enforced by Republicans only so far aa It protects foe special privileges of capital, foe bondholders, bankers and New England lords of tbe loom. While foe Demo* ocrats were in power, foe Constitution, as a whole, was held sacred; it was tbe Alpha and Omega of their political faith. Those provisions which shielded foe poor man In his dwelling, and guaranteed to him his personal rights of fiee speech, freedom from arrest; secured, in short, bio liberty of person as well as enjoyment, of bis property, were ss strictly maintained as those that protected capital in ite privileges. That time will not return again till the Democrats are placed in possession of the Government. Of this there Is no doubt. The animus of foe Republican party, its fundamental principle that whatever it deems expedient must be accomplished, without regard to rights of minorities or provisions ot constitutions, wUI judges or legislators to be n

tlMraglit enough tution to intereot Itself in its preservation; never liked it well enough, and has boon too long engaged, under Garrison, Phillips, Slade, W ade, Glddtnga, Julian, Chase and other radical traders In trying to evade or subvert It, to be able now to look upon it otherwise than with Indifference; tbey have ben badly educated on the subject—had bad masters, and their wretched practices, sad tyrannical rule in power have been-the natural consequence. Daniel Webster, loHHhtltrfr hi* dotih, desl pondingly predicted tbat the radteni Republican a would, by some mode, got- into power, end overthrow foe Constitution and disrupt tho Union. The prediction of font grant eenstttuUonal statesman and, as the Whigs designated him, God like man, has been verified. But to foe point of now enforcing It te protect foe bondholders. If tiM CaasStnUea has been laid aside for foe piling up ot fo** gnat burden upon tho shoulders of tho people, let it remain aside until tbe burden ran be taken off or lightened. If the Constitution has been laid aaide for the erection of a privileged order in the States, an uataxed, geM pensioned aristocracy, let U remain aside until that aritto-

But still, we have a great country, much of new, unsettled country. To this the poor can flee and escape the present, and, (br awhile, future burdens. Our population is rapidly increasing through Immigration. Thousands of Europeans are pouring in upon our eastern, and of Asiatics upon oar western shores. These bring with them their native social customs, their religions, their science, their ex penances, as welt as their money, which they ■ingto with ours, thus greatly modifying our separate views and practice*, and augmenting our knowledge.

The ftrumd Array •( the BevmfcUc— Its Tremsmable teeslgaa. The Washington correspondent of the Boston Post develops foe following plottings of foe secret political radical organization known as the Grand Army ot the Republic. He says: Important additional facts have come to light pointing te the treasonable purposes of foe Grand Army of the Republic. At the convention of foe "loyal” Governors and other radicals in Philadelphia, on the 13th of September last, a committee of two from each of the States was appointed, and this committee appointed a sub committee on the political situation, consisting of General Ben. Butler, Governor Hamman, of New Hampshire, General Seigel, Senator Ross, oi Kansas, General Schenck, of Ohio, Colonel Hawkins, cf New York, rad George W. Paschal, of Texas. This sub committee met with tbe soldiers’ convention at Pittsburg, in October following, and there aided in organizing the Grand Army of the It public. As it was apprehended that tbe President’s policy would restore the political power of foe rebel States to foe Southern whites, this sub committee was specially charged to take all necessary steps to defeat such a result. It wa^ determined that the Southern “ loyalists,” includirg the negroes, should hold all power, and, when necessary, t-hould lie supported by tbis secret army, the members of which were to ba educated up to the point that no change of administration and no change in eonxressional power was to be allowed to interfere with this negro supremacy. As showing the animus oi this treasonable body as organized at Pittsburg, it is only necessary to allude to foe speech made by one of foe members while in secret se-sion. He said be knew " but little and cared less about politics, but that be would be d—d if the war should close until every rebel was out of office in foe South.” My informant was present at foe meeting, and reports tbat this declaration was received with great applause. Those who doubt the truth of this statement can have it verified by inquiring of either member of the sub-committee, all of whom were actively engaged in instilling the idea into such of the veteran soldiers as they could entrap, that what they fought for would be lost if the policy of President Johnson should succeed, and negro supremacy in foe South would be defeated. Since foe adjournment of the Pittsburg convention, this Grand Army of the Republic has swollen to gigantic proportions at on expenditure of nearly two hundred thousand dollars. Not only has foe enrollment been progressing rapidly and steadily among foe negroes of foe South, but foe militia of several of foe Northern States have been officered in a manner looking specially to the crl i-, w Uvn foe State troops may be needed " outside of foe Constitution.” If tnis fact be questioned, I respectfully refer to Governor Fenton, of New York, who can tell why Colonel Hawkins, late of the Hawkins Zouaves, and a member of the sub-committee, was placed at foe head of foe militia organization of his State. One reference as respectable as this will suffice, but several others can be given. In view of the late election re-alts another meeting of the originators of the scheme is peoposed to be held for foe purpose of receiving foe reports from recruiting and other officers, and for perfecting their plans of resistance to the Government authorities. These tacts are not less true than startling, and I have foe witnesses who can prove them. From the New York Commercial Advertiser. Tteu PaaMfflicaa Synod—Its Composition—Wknt is will «•. The synod was called in February last by foe archbishop of Canterbury sending a brotherly letter to each of his Episcopal compeers. To Bishop Whitehouse, of Illinois, Is assigned foe honor of preaching the opening charge, when the synod assembles, on Tuesday, September 24, at Lambeth palace, London. The idea of the assembly originated with the bishop of Montreal. The composition of the house will be as follows: Bishops from England (Including two archbishops) -J3 Ireland (Including two archbishops) 12 The Colonies (India, South Sea, etc.) !. 51 America 43 Retired bishops (invalided, etc. ! M 6 Total iso Tbe president will be foe" Right Honorable and Most Rev. Charles Thomas Longley, D. D., Lord archbishop, primate of all England and Metropolitan.” He is the “ first subject ” of foe realm, taking rank next the queen; while foe archbishop of York ranks ail dukes, except those of Mood. The venerable and distinguished senior bishop of the American church, foe Right Rev. John Henry Hopkins, D. D., as de facto Metropolitan, will be assignad ahigh place, probably at tbe right hand of the archbishop of Canterbury. None could gracethe position better. HU white hair and hale appearance forming a most reverend SfPj b rad^remindlng one of the picture of He, wub Bishop Potter, of New York, Odenbetmer, of New Jersey, and fourteen other American bishops, had. at last advices, already arrived in London* They will be shown every possible attention, and invited to preach to foe cathedrals, where their fresh American oratory will no doubt be appreciated. From north and from south, from east and from west, the prelates of the Anglican co " ln ™ 1 , 011 mw gathering together—from the ehiUy hills of Scotland to the semi-tropic wilds of the Cape of Good Hope, from Canada, China, V an Dteman’s L ind.
