AO Incident of tlte Episcopal Convention and Fifth Avenue Boarding Houses. About the time of the arrival of the dele gates to the General Episcopal Convention a lingular contretemps occurred, in which a -prominent member of Grace church” and /southern clerical delegate assumed the leading parts. It appears that a “prominent- member of Grace church” called at a fashion able Fifth avenue boarding house, and told the landlady that he had been charged with the e&ro of two clerical delegates to the Con vention; and the price at the Fifth avenue Hotel was too heavy, and that he thought he would billot them on her if she could accom modate them, it being for one week. She con sented to provide for them, and in the course ol' a few days one clerical delegate appeared und engaged rooms. At the expiration of the first week the “prominent member of Grace church” called on the landlady and tendered her twenty dollars, saying that he had ascertained the Convention would continue' in session for more than one week, and that he shonld not stand the expense for so long a tiihe ! He therefore begged her to inform her clerical lodger that he must pay his own bills here after. This the lady declined to do; but she offered to write Bishop Potter, informing him that a “prominent member of Grace church” declined fulfilling his agreement. To this the “prominent member of Grace church" objected, and said as he had already expended some $6,000 this year in charities— besides being one of the dozen prominent members on whom the expense of support ing Grace church devolyed—ha could not pay the parsog’s boarej hillf or the second week. finding he could not mould the landlady to his wishes, he retired, and afterward sent the delegate his card, on which was written, “I have settled one week for yon, and now you must be responsible.’! It so happened that the clerical delegate was not in the impe- rnnioos condition which the P. M. of G. C. Imagined, but was at the time in search of a music teacher of the same name name as the P. II. of G. C. Consequently. the message appended to the name on the cart} greatly mystified the worthy clergyman. The mat ter, however, passed from his mind until the adjournment of the Convention, when he bethought him of engaging a mu sic teacher. He, therefore, looked up the address of the supposed music teacher on the card, called, sent in his name, tsd was ushered by the servant into a mag nificent parlor, where he encountered the burly P. M- of G. C., to'whom he was about stating his business, whenjhe was rudely in- tenupted noth “Oh ! I know what you want. I have paid one week for you, and I can’t do my more. There is no use of coining to me; I can’t afford it. My charities, are too ex pensive; cost, me over $6,000. Besides, Brown told me it would only last a week.” Imagine the consternation of a Southern clerical gentleman at being thus rudely ad dressed by a supposed music teacher. Ex planation followed, and we are glad to know this purse-proud P. M. of G. C. was proper ly rebuked hy hia cjepical visitor.—-Yew York Qmmercial. Spanish Items. A Paris correspondent of the Courier des Etds-Uiiis writes that the letter of Gen. Prim in favor of a constitutional monarchy in Spain in hot favorably received by the French Democrats. Like our Badicals, they are gen tlemen of ideas, which, though exploded a thousand times, they never fail to bring forth at every national crisis. The correspondent continues, that it has been a secret to no one, that Prim, Serrano, Olozaga and the rest of he chiefs ijave been from tlje beginning in aver of a constitutional monarchy—believing hat a Republic is not adapted to the ideas of heir country and to the necessities oh the situation.' But if the people, through the Cortes, shall ijeclare for a Republic, the chiefs will acquiesce and mqbe tffie Rest of it they As to tlpe candidates, flqe correspon dent repudiates all wlpo have been mentioned. Olozaga hgs recently informed the Provision al Government that the Queen is willing to resign in favor of Don Carlos, the representa tive of the ehfer branch of the Bofirhona This announcement may mean something. If the heir qf legitimacy would in good faith accept a throne, surrounded by free institu- fions, jt might be a very happy solution of aU difficulties. When the mob broke into the Jesuit Con vent, at Madrid, they found it stored with “superb hams and magnificent sausages,’’ tp' ^great scandal of the holy fraternity. The same correspondent says the breezes from the Rhine are very different from those' comes across the Pyrenees. They smell of war. The Pranco-Pmssian situation is more and more stretched every day, and grave svents may.be expected soon. “ Permit me (adds the writer) to tell yon a fact, which I fare from a sure source, and will be conceded R a mqqtb- Know then, Yon Bismarck.has not been unwell at all—has had no fall from, nis horse—bias thrown away his crutches, and was never better in his life than during «te past three months, which he devoted to Working up the Spanish BeYQlution, carrying flh his work hy verhal orders, never venturing W pat hand to paper a single time.” » IW < Dbv Goods.—The dry goods market for the past week has been languid, unsettled, and unsatisfactory. - ■ I - Domestic cotton goods have been very Qnret, and no material changes since last week are to be noted.

[From tho Atlanta Constitution.] DIRECT TRADE. . What It Will Do for the South. It is impossible in the brief limits , of a newspaper article to more than glance at the immense advantages which must result to the South by the permanent establishment of Direct Trade. When this is done—"when frequent and direct communication between the South and Europe has become an accom plished fact, we may well regard the South as on the high road to wealth and prosperity. Until then we will look in vain for such ac cession to onr producing population and for such an influx of capital os will enable the people of the South to develop and make available such resources as the war could not destroy, and out of which, if at all, they must recover their lost fortunes. We must by some means replace what the war swept away; labor and capital, or the resources that still remain, will prove to be of little valne to us. The labor we must get from Europe, either directly or indirectly. We are no longer rich and prosperous; no longer able to pay others for doing what we can do better lor ourselves. If we would succeed in inducing emigrants to settle among us, to buy and cultivate our" idle lands, to develope onr dormant resources, and thus to regain and even surpass our for mer prosperity, we must ourselves inaugurate and carry out active measures that will bring about such a desirable result We must not only direct the attention of emigrants to the large amount of fertile lands now lying idle, and which can be bought—as compared with the prices ruling in the North and West—for a mere song; to our climate, unsurpassed by any in the world and approximating nearer to the climate of their native land than that of any other portion of the United States; to the great variety of our productions and the intrinsic value and ready sale of those which are peculiar to the South; to the richness and extent of onr mineral resources, and to the thousand other advantages which the God of nature has given us. But we must, in addition to these advantages, provide, as we may do, a shorter, cheaper and less peril ous way to reach the South than there is to the W est. We must not compel emigrants to the South to come through the North. We must relieve thorn of the expense of an increased and unnecessary travel; we must protect them from the rascalities 'Of Northern emigrant agents and runners; and we must keep them out of the reach of Badical emissaries who by lying tales of bloody deeds and manifold dangers to life and property, would seek to deter them from coming among us. We must bring them from their own ports direct to ours by a reg ular line of steamers and by combination with our different lines of railroads secure low rates and few transfers, so that they may be transported cheaply and expeditiously to their destination. When we are able to an nounce in Europe that such arrangements are perfected, then and not till then, may we expect emigrants. We shall then have laid the foundation of a labor system which will regenerate the South. For with emigration will come capital, not that alone which the emigrants will bring, but the simple fact that the South is being supplied with, and encourages the introduction of white labor, will of itself give the Euro pean capitalist confidence that he can with safety invest his capital in the South. We shall not then be dependent, on Northern bankers who, after absorbing the greater por tion of the national currency, demand double interest for the use of that which is rightfully our own. Direct communication once estali-. lislied, English bankers will gladly fur nish, at six per cent, per annum, funds for the purchase of produce to be shipped to Liverpool. But not only will we pay a less rate of interest on advances, but we will re alize more from tlie sale of our products. Our daily reports qf the New York and Liv erpool markets show that a margin of not less than five cents per pound has been steadily maintained between New York and Liveipool. We must ship our cotton direct to Europe, and let this enormous profit inure to the improverished South instead of swell ing the already bloated wealth of the North. If tho North, out of the profits derived , from the sale of our productions in former times, have been able to_ build colossal fortunes until they are surfeited with riches, and—rolling in luxury—pant for some new desire to gratify, shall we not profit by their example and in the futureuse these profits to repair our broken fortunes? If we were generous to them then, may we not be just to ourselves now ? Our duty to ourselves, our iamilies, and to our country demands that we shall use all the honorable means in our power to build up the ruined South ? We must have labor, we must have “the use of capital at a low rate of. interest. We must sell our products in those markets where they command the highest price, and wo must make onr purchases where we can buy the cheapest. We must have free qceoss. to the markets of fhe vtqflfl- Direct trade is the only avenue through which we can reach them with profit to ourselves, and we shall, therefore, hail with joy the establishment of of every direct line of communication be tween Europe and the South as another step towards regaining our former pros perity. .. Anecdote of De. Franklin.—His peculiar talent was that of illustrating subjects by ap posite anecdotes. After the news of the destruction of the.stamped paper in America had arrived in England, the ministry sent for the Doctor to' consult' with, and in, conclu sion, offered this proposal; “That if the Americans would engage to pay for the dflmage done in the destruction of . the stamped paper, See., the parliament would then repeal the act.” The Doctor, having paused upon this question for some time, at. last answered it aa fftllows: “This puts me in- mind of a Frenchman,, who, having heated a poker red-,liot, :r£in ! furiously into the street, and addressed the first Englishman' he met there: “Hi! Monsieur, rendezvous give me de plaisir, de satisfaction, to let me run this poker only one foot into your body ?' ‘Go about your business,’ said the Englishman. r ‘Fel, den, only so far;’ making ‘‘bout *•* inches. ‘Are von mad?’ returned the other: ‘I tell Are yqq mqd ?’ you, if y.qn don't go about your -business I’ll knock you down.’ ‘ Yet, den,' said the Freuch- mrri, softening his voice and manner, *vil yon, my good sire, only be ao obliging as to pay me for the trouble and expense of heating ibis poker ?” ' The Countess Montijo.—This lady, the mother of the Empress of -the French,-' has sent a communication to the Spanish journals stating that she was absent from Madrid when a flag was suspended from her balcony bearing the inscription of “Down with ihe Bourbons.” The flag was put up by. some volunteers who had taken possession, of her bouse.
