He did not act ihus from resentment, for such an emotion did not raise in his heart, but hit desired 10 leach them a lesson' such as they would not easily forget. j Six months from this time the Ohio Annual Conference met at Cincinnati, and the young minister was to present him-j self for ordination as a Deacon; and Bishop George was to bo the presiding Bishop. On the first day of the assembling of the conference, our minister's heart sunk within him as he saw the venerable Bishop take his seat. So great was his grief and agitation that he was soon obliged to

leave the room. That evening, as the Bishop was seated alone in his chamber, the Kev. Mr. was announced, and he requested In id to be shown up. He grasped the young man by the hand with a cordialily which be did not expect, for he had made careful enquiries, and found that since they had met before a great change had been wrought in him. He was now as bumble and pious, as he was before worldly minded. As a father would have received a disobedient but repentant child, so did this good man receive his erring but contrite brother. Thev mingled their tears together, while the young preacher, wept as a child, upon the bosom of his spiritual father. At that session I.e was ordained, and he is now one of the most pious and useful ministers in the Ohio Conference. Halt. Athcmvum. A. General Washing-ton's Church. The Bishop of Virginia, during a recent visitation of his dioeess, give an account of the present condition of the church in which the father of his country worshipped the God of his father: Huston ''ra.iscrijit. It was still raining when the Bishop approached the church alone and found 110 one there. The wide open doors invited bun to enter, as they do invite night and! day throughout the year, not even the passing traveller, but the beast of the! field and the fowl of the air. These latter, however, teen lo have reverenced the house, of God, as few marks of their pollution are to be seen throughout it. The interior of the house having been well built, is, sull good. The allar communion tsble is still there, and in good order. But the roof is decaying, and at the time mentioned the rain was dropping from above 011 those sacred places and on other p ins of the house. The location of it is 10 be ascribed lo the youthful Washington, who, at a very early age, being an active member of the vicinity, when it was in dispute where 11 should be built, rarefullv surveyed the whole parish, and drawing a handsome map of it, showd where the claims of justice and the interests of religion required it lo be placed. It was to this church ih.il Washington, for a long series of years, regularly repaired, at a distance of six or seven mile , never permitiing any company to interfere with the

regular observance of the Lord's dav. And shall it be permitted to sink into rum for the want of a few hundred dollars to arrert the decay already begun?

Since the settlement of this country, the health of our citizens has never been so good as during the present autumn. But few cases of fever have occurred, and those few in a very mild form, hardly leaving a tract of disease visible on the countenance of the invalids.

A storv is told of a gross indiwnitv oflered to a meritorious and excellent o!licer a lieutenant in the American uavv on a race ground, in the presence of a large concourse of strangers, among them the officers of the British ship of the line lvodnev of shaking his cane over this officer's head, without the slightest cause, and then ordering him on board hi" ship, and suspending him from his duty. The officer wrote a letter to the Secretary of the Navy, preferring charges against the commander for the outrage, which the rules of the sen ice required to be transmitted through his commanding officer; and Commodore Elliott made this latter the basis of an acusation against the officer himself! Charges were preferred ag tinst the officer, and a Court martial was called on board the frigate Edited States, of which Captain Wilkinson was the presiding nllieer. The court after hearing ('apt.

the Khine. A celebrated Albiuess, aa she was termed, a French woman, has been exhibited in Europe for the last twenty years. When we saw her last, her hair was of the purest white, and reached below her knees. She appeared wrinkled and dceicpid, although not thirty years of age; her eves were more than usually red, and her skin cadaverously white. Her name was announced as Madame Blafard, which the exhibitor ignorantlv asserted w;is her family denomination, not being aware that blafanl, or pale face, is the name givt n by the, French to all Albinoes. The Leuca tliiops, or White Negroes, are subject to the same disease as the European Albinos. The rete innseosi'iii is destroyed by this disease, and as the coloring matter that imparts the tint to the skin is ii-i;ii:icd between cul'n and the nti ),wsr,).sinn, it follows that when ihe latter is destroyed, the r -fleet of the coloring matter is lost.
