THE C AT-O’-N i N E-I'A I US. Whipping a Brute for an Assault on a Six-Year-Old Girl. Halifax (N. S J Special. For the first time in the history of the maritime provinces the "cat-o’-nine-tails” lias been used on the back of a civil prisoner. Last evening Andrew Doyle, a man well known about Halifax for his brutal disposition, and who was convicted last October of an assault on a six-vear-old girl, received the punishment above mentioned in the yard of the county jail. The whipping was performed by a sailor belonging to her Majesty’s warship Griffin, now at this port. An iron triangle, consisting of three bars, each about nine feet in length, was erected in the yard for the purpose. When told that the time had arrived Doyle trembled violently. lie was directed to strip to the waist, which he did. With a swinging walk he approached the dreaded triangle. The sailor who was to do the whipping stood there qnietly puffing a cigar, upparently thinking very little of the work before him. He held in his hand two slender “cats.” The whip beyond the handle was a little over a foot in length, the nine tails at the end of each bearing several small, hard knots. The material was of no greater thickness than an ordinary fishing line, but very tough. Walking over to where the sailor stood, Doyle grasped hint by the hand, shook it heartily and asked him to be as easy as possible and not to strike in one place. Immediately the work of securing Doyle to the iron triangle was performed, bis knees and feet being strapped apart, each to one of the iron bars, and bis hands bound together, being held above his head by a suspending chord. His coat was thrown over a wooden bar crossing just at his chest, and on this the prisoner leaned. Doyie called out that his hands were tied too tightly, when they were loosened slightly, and he said that would do. The seaman called, “Now, then, are you ready? Who's going to count? Read the warrant.” “No, never mind the warrant,” said Doyle, “hurry up.” But the sheriff, producing the document mentioned from his pocket, hastily read it. Drawing back a couple of feet from the triangle, the sailor rolled up the right sleeve of his jacket, and, taking one of the two “cats” in his right hand, it was raised above his head. “Count/ 1 lie cried to one of those present, and the whip descended with a sharp report on the prisoner s naked back, striking right across, about four inches below the shoulders. At once the lash was raised again, and the seaman continued to perform his work as calmly as possible until twenty lashes had been inflicted, the time occupied being little more titan half a minute. A spectator called each stroke aloud as it fell. On the lash being lifted the second time a narrow streak was visible on Doyle’s back and a slight shudder passed through his frame, but he at once regained his forced composure. But on the lash having fallen the fifth time Doyle began to writhe and squirm. Tnough he as yet had uttered no sound, his back was beginning to look rather red, but no blood had appeared. Ou the thirteenth, however, an agonized cry was iteard, and dnring the remainder of the whipping Doyle shouted with apparently increasing pain. The twentieth stroke having been laid on the man was untied, and the doctor, tiding a sponge soaked in water, washed the lacerated back. Only one small stream of blood •was descending on the left side of Doyle’s back, but after tbe sponge had been applied the surface looked very badly and the marks of the “cat” were plainly seen. The whipper had struck in almost the same spot at every stroke, and the effect of the lashing was only visible over a limited surface. Before the whipping began a small piece of bard rubber had been placed in Doyle’s mouth for him to bite, and now, removing this, he took the sailor’s hand and said, “Good-by.” “No, not good-by,” replied the tar. “I hope to meet you again, in another place, old fellow.” “No, you won’t,” rejoined Doyle, “not after such as this,” and putting on his coat lie walked into the jail tmilding and .sat down. Doyle afterward said that his suffering during the iashing had not been so great as tbe spectators supposed, as lie had feigned feeling intense pain for fear the sailor would lay tbe whip on heavier. The seaman who performed the whipping received $5 for his task.

THE OTHER PROCEEDINGS. Rev. George White, D. D., of Tennessee, offered a resolution, which was adopted, providing for the meeting of the House of Bishops with the House of Deputies. Rev, Dr. John Fulton, of Missouri, said he .thought no person more fitted to ask the bouse to take such action than his venerable friend from Tennessee. The House of Bishops was so large that be thought it desirable to know them by looking at them and by a grasp of the hand. It was proper that the reverend fathers in God should appoint the time to meet the House of Deputies. Lloyd W. Wells, treasurer of the convention, reported that the balance on Oct. 6, 1880, was $1,218; assessments from 3.123 clergy, $9,369; triennial expenses, $9,986; balance, $599. Expenses 1880 to 1883—salaries, $4,000; journal, $2,808; stationery and printing, $1,904; miscellaneous, $1,273. An invitation wasextended from the board of directors of the Union League to visit and use their building. A similar invitation was received from the Young Men’s Christian Association. The report of the joint committee on the lectionary order of the day, on Wednesday next, states that the committee have, during the pa3t three years, very carefully reconsidered the lectionary reported by them and approved by the convention in 1880. Iu doing so they have been aided by the experience of its actual use and by a large number of suggestions, to which they have given respectful attention, not only for their intrinsic value, but as indicating the general sentiment of the church. The tables appended to the report are substantially the same as those which were presented to the last convention, but with several alterations. The most important of these is the Old Testament lessons for Easter day, where the account of the institution of the Passover has been assigned to the morning, and the song of Moses to the evening, with liberty to substitute one for the other. The lectionarv thus revised is recommended to the convention for final adoption bv the annexed act, in the firm conviction that to use it will tend to the edification of the church. The act referred to is as follows: Hy the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United Staten of America: The lection,try contained iu the Book of Common Prayer is hereby amended by substituting the tiibles appended for the table of lesson of holy Scripture, and by inserting after the third paragraph of the order how the rest of the holy Scripture is appointed to be read. The three rules following are given: If in any church upon Sunday, or a holy day, both morning and evening prayer he not said, the minister may read the lessons appointed for either morning or for evening prayer. At evening prayer on Sunday the minister may rend the lesson from tho gospel appointed for that day of the month in place of the second lesson for the Sunday, Upon any day for which no proper lessons are provided, the lesson appointed in the calendar for any day iu the same week may be read iu place of the lessons for the day.

A committee was appointed to invite the Lord Bishop of Rochester to a seat by the president. Bishop Thorold was also in the chancel. A resolution was adopted to extend to Bishop Thorold an invitation to attend the sessions of the house and occupy a seat at the right of the president. The secretary read the following cablegram from the Church Congress in session at Reading, England: “The Archbishop of Canterbury and president of the Church Congress assembled at Reading, send brotherly greeting to the General Convention of the American church, for which Congress has prayed this morning. “Lobd Bishop of Oxfobd.” The president was requested, in conjunction with the presiding bishop, to return the cordial greetings of the church. Rev. S. C. Thrall, of the diocese of Springfield, offered a resolution that the words “Protestant Episcopal” be dropped from the Book of Common Prayer. Rev. Dr. Thrall moved that the words “Protestant Episcopal” be omitted from the constitution of the church, and requested it to be referred to a committee on conference on the constitution. Adopted. Rev. Dr. Thrall moved to omit the word3 “Protestant Episcopal” from the canons. Referred to the committee on canons. A memorial asking for a change in the phraseology of testimonials in the canon for the admission of candidates for holy orders was referred to the committee on canons. A resolution was referred to the committee on constitution that, the House of Bishops concurring, article 1 of the constitution be so amended that for the words “general convention,” “triennial council’’ be substituted, and that the constitution and laws throughout be made to correspond with this change. An invitation to visit the House of Refuge was accepted. A resolution was referred to the committee on canons witli regard to the canon relating to officiating ministers ordained in foreign countries. A meeting of the committee on canons having been announced, Malcolm Hay, of Pittsburg, said he was sorry there was any necessity for a meeting of that committee, as it would only lead to a tiresome debate. The convention had important work there, and a very brief time in which to transact it. The report of the secretary of the committee on revision of the Book of Common Prayer was made ttie order of the day for Tuesday next. The following was referred to the committee on canons: ‘•Resolved, That no addition he made to section 1, cauon 22, title 2, except that the general convention may authorize the tentative use diirlug the Intervals of one of its sessions to another of nv of the promised alterations of the Hook of Common Prayer that may have been recommended by tne committee appointed at the previous sesstou.’’ Adjourned till to-morrow.

Detroit, Mich., Oct. 4. —The third day’s proceedings of the American Board was largely taken up with reports from committees in the various fields occupied by the board. This afternoon the election of officers took place. It had become known that the venerable President Hopkins declined a re-election, after a service of twenty years, on account of advancing years, and great interest was feit as to tbe choice of a successor. Considerable diversity of opinion was found to exist. At length President Hopkins was urgently entreated to withhold his purpose for^another year, and this he finally consented to do, greatly to the gratification of all. E. W. Blatcbford, of Chicago, was elected vice-president, in place of the lamented Wm. E. Dodge, recently deceased. All other existing officers of the board were re-elected with the addition of Hon. Wm.

A party of fourteen windowglass blowers left for Belgium to-day to work. They assert that they can make as much money there as here. The Comet Seen at Splceland. I have looked several times for the comet, discovered a month ago by W. R. Brooks, of Phelps, N. Y., without being sure of seeing it till last night. At 8:25 o’clock I saw a round, dim brush of light, which, I have no doubt, was the newly-found comet now slowly approaching the earth and sun, though it is yet a long way off. I judge it to be about 2' in diameter. It has quite a nebulous appearance, without any indication of a tail. I used a power of 50 on the 6-foot equatorial. It is said to be now nearly twice as bright as when first discovered. A large telescope was required to show it then. 1 thought I glimpsed something like a very dim cometon the 19tli of September, but it was so faint—or possibiy an illusion—that I could not be certain that I saw the comet. Its position is right ascension, 16 hours, 28 minutes; declination, 58° 33', north. Being nearly northeast, and nearly half way from the horizon to tbe zenith. It forms nearly a right-angled triangle (to the left or west) with the stars Eta and Theta in Draco. Its motion is downward to the left—southwest. \V- Dawson. Spiceland, Oct. 3.
