W* welcome, with a gladsome heart,
The dawn af April’s natal day ;
For though, with a coquettish art,
She trifles with our hope alway,
We see with her the germs upstart
That culminate in flowers of May.
And as we feel the genial air
Our brow with grateful touch invest,
The springtime effluence we share
And breathe one hope above the rest.
That time and worldtiness may spare
The hope of Summer iu the breast.
P>otest Against Ritualism. —Th«
committee of Episcopal Bishops ap
pointed to inquire iuto the Episcopal
Church, have made their report. It is
signed by twenty-eight Bishops, and
concludes as follows :
And we therefore consider that in
this particular National Church, any
attempt to introduce into the public
worship of Almighty God usages that
have never been known, such as the use
of incense, and the burning of lights iu
the altar for the Holy Communion;
reverences to the Holy Table or to the
elements thereon, such as indicate or
imply that the Sacrifice of our Divine
Lord and Saviour “ouce offered,” was
not a** full, perfect and sufficient sacri
fice, oblation and satisfaction, for the
sins of the whole world the adoption
of clerical habits hitherto unknown, or
material alterations of those which have
been in use since the establishment of
our Episcopate ; is an innovation which
violates the discipline ot the Church,
“offendeth against its common order,
and hurteth the authority of the Magis
trate and woundlth the conscience of
the weak brethren.” Furthermore, that
we be not misunderstood, let it be noted
that we include in these censures all
departures from the laws, rubrics and
settled order of this Church, as well; by
defeat as by excess of observance, de
signing to maintain in its integrity the
sound scriptural and primitive and
therefore the Catholic and Apostolic
spirit of the Book of Common Prayer.
The Virgin'ia Press on the Siiermax-
Sheli.abarger Bsi.l. —The columns ot
the State papers being the only mediums
at present through which can be formed
a conjecture of the current of public
opinion a3 to the reception to be given
the new measure for reconstruction, we
present the stand taken by such as have
committed themselves. The Richmond
Times, Dispatch, and Whig ; the Lynch
burg Virginian, Charlottesville Chroni
cle, Fredericskurg Ledger, and Danville
Times favor, the calline of a convention
under its provisions. The Norfolk Vir
ginian and Dag Book, Lynchburg News
and Republican, Fredericsburg News ,
Winchester News, Richmond Enquirer,
Valley Virginian, Stanntou Spectator,
and Petersburg papers oppose any ac
tion whateyer. The Richmond Examiner
withholds an expression oi opinion upon
the ground that the progress of events
may cause regret hereafter for words
hastily spoken, etc. etc.
Solid Men. —The Democrats of Con
necticut have selected for their promi
nent candidates this spring men who
can afford to pay tolerably heavy elec
tioneering expenses. The wealth of five
of these candidates, State and Congres
sional, is estimated as follows: James
E. English, $1,000,000; Edward B.
Mosely, $300,000; Julins Hotchkiss,
$300,000 ; Wm. H. Barnum, $500,000;
Richard D. Hubbard, $250,000. Total,
Messrs. English, Hotchkiss,
and Barnum are large manufacturers,
Mr. Moseley is a retired merchant, and
Mr. Hubbard is a lawyer.
We see no reason to doubt that the
obnoxious law will be faithfully enforced,
and there is no tribunal to which we
can look with the slightest hope ot pro
tection from a measure that overrides
the Constitution and sets aside all law.
Let us so regard the “ situation,” and
endeavor, by union, harmony, delibera
tion, and ferecaste, to protect the com
munity as far as we can from the evils
which hover darkly over the future of
our oppressed State.— Rich. Dispatch.
National Basks axd Specclatiox.
—The failure of theie institutions is
■baking the public confidence in the
preeent banking system, and if more
stringent safeguards are not placed
around them, the roost serious results
■will follow. The Newton, Mass., bank,
a bank at Hudson, N. Y., and one at
Baltimore, are reported heavy losers by
defaulting clerks and runaway tellers.
The great Washington swindle of last
year seems to have stimulated the smaller
fry to try their hands at the same game.
Fiona a report recently made by a
Special Committee to investigate the
financial conditioned the city of Atlanta,
it appears that the total defalcations of
the late Treasurer amount to #7,427,6ft
in 1865, and $47,606,48 in 1866, and
that the total indebted ness of ibe city is
*270,700.
—The Brownlow Radicals in Mem
phis state that the Governor threatens
to suppress the Memphis Avalanche, on
account of its bitterness toward him
aad his party. .
—The Kentucky Senate has passed a
bin prohibiting the marriage of cousins.
