The Revolution, a Radical paper, says
“ there are sixty thousand people oat of em
ploy in New York, and two hundred thous
and in all the United States! A million of
m >iuhs short of food in a country which was
groaning with abundance in 1865.” The
Springfield Republican, in an article on this
subject, takes the same view of the situation,
declares that “capital” in the Northern
Stites is begining to break down of its own
excess,” admits that “employment can no
longer be obtained on aDy terms,” and con
cedes that there are *• hundreds of thousands
of families among the once frugal and thrifty
people who have nothing beforehand and no
mea-.is of support.’’ These are Bad admis
sions, but they are doubtless true, and the
question forced upon us is : “What is the
proper remedy for all this stagnation in
trade ?—for all this suffering and want ?”
We are quite sure, says the Bridgeport
(Conn.) Farmer, that it is not to be found in
continuing to tax Northern white labor to
support negro idleness in the So nth; nor in
keeping a standing army of 30,000 men in
excess of the peace basis, as a means of com
pelling the whites in the South to yield their
civilization to semi-barbarism. The Radi
cals may think that the remedy as to be
found in such extravagance—in such costly
machinery of oppression—but white work
ing men in the North begin to look at the
matter in a different light and their united
opinions are soon to be reflected from the
ballot-box. They begin to realize the fact
that, under Radical rule, since the close of
the war, the home, the wardrobe and the
pur3e of the poor man have been growing
scantier and leaner, while the bondholder,
the tax collector and the office holder, have
Th«Deft»toftlit British Ministry.
The cable brings the following details of
the defeat of the British Ministry on the
Irish Church question, heretofore reported;
“At a rather late hour, iq tho presence of
a full House, there being an unusual attend
ance of members of botn parties iu expecta
tion of a division, Mr. Gladstone rose and
was loudly chee r ed. He commenced by s ly
ing that he could not comp n oin of the result
of ibis long debate. These eleven nights of
discussion bad fully demonstrated that the
Irish Church Establishment never did, and
uever could, fulfill the end of its creation.
It was not the church of the nation; it was
not the church of the poor, nor was it a mia-
slonary church. It existed only for the pur
pose of sustaining political supremacy in u
form most hateful to the people upon which
it was imposed. This was unendurable. No
Minister dared to say that it should continue
•o exist. Now was the time to apply the
remedy. The Ministers had raised the qoes.
tion, and had broached a policy in regard to
it upon which they subsequently failed to
agree. He would say nothing concerning
the disposal of the Cbnrch property iu Ire
land ; for more und better information was
needed on a question involving interests so ,
extensive. Our duty now was to accord jus
tice to Ireland.
“Mr. Gladstone then, alluding to the per
sonal attacks which had been midoupnn
him, denied in the most explicit manner that
he had any connection with, or interest in,
the policy or plans of either the Ritualists
on the one baud or the Roman Catholics ou
the latter. Discussing the arguments made
against his propositions, be said two leading
objections had been made to his plau for the
disestablishment of the Irish Church. One
was that it imperiled the exisieuce of the Es
tablished Church of England ; the other ob
jection was that the time was iuoppoi tune.
Ten years ago, said Mr. Gladstone, the peo
ple of Great Britain were indifferent, and
then the introduction of a great reform
would have been untimely ; now ihe people
were aroused, and the opportunity presented
itself for an early and sound settlement of
ihe question. The strength of the Cnurcb of
England lay in her own merits and in the
voluntary zeal of her votaries far mure than
in her connection with the state. Hu ex
pressed the belief that the Caurcn of Eog-
land wouid lose none of her strength, even
it parted from the stale. She had more to
fear from her partisans than from her foes,
and the reform of the Irish Established
Cbnrch would strengthen the Church of
England.
“Mr. Disraeli then rose, amid the excited
cheers ot ihe House, to reply to Mr. Glad
stone, and close the debate. He deplored
the act of injustice contemplated by these
resolves. It was an act that involved wide
confiscation of property, and menaced the
rights of every corporation and every per-
sou in the United Kingdom. It inevitably
must predispose the public mind ior a simi
lar attack upon the Church of England, and
it undoubtedly was init-n Jed to have such
i nfluence. But in spite of the virulence of
the press, and the pressure brought to bear
by the advocates of change, he firmly be
lieved the E 'glish people would never sanc
tion the sacrifice of sacred things to party
necessities, leading, as it was sure to lead to
results only to be described as revolution-

The announcement of the result was re

The Memphis Christian Advocate was
interested, recently, in a conversation be
tween an intelligent foreigner, now travel
ing in the South, and a prominent citizen of
a neighboring State, once a planter of large
means, but now reduced to straits by the
calamitous consequences of war, and also
passing through the deepest trouble on ac
count of public affairs. The foreigner
uttered bright and hopeful sentiments—
predicting for the South a career of pros
perity; but the citizen could see nothing but
ruins, barrenness, and despair. The Advo
cate remarks, wisely, that with some people,
some excuse for discontent becomes first a
luxury, then a habit, then a necessit y ot
every-day life.
The Ship Island Mystery Explained
From an article which appeared in the
New Orleans Commercial Bulletin, of the
3(hh ultimo, headed as above, we extract the
following card which gives flat contradiction
to an alleged ontrage by a negro soldier at
Ship Island, upon a beautiful and accom
plished young lady of sixteen, the daughter
of General Mower:
New Orleans, April 28, 1868.
Editors BuLletin:—It is with feelings of
deep regret—not unmixed with oontempt—
that I find in your paper of this morning an
article under the title of “The Ship Ibland
Mystery, ” in which the family of Gen. Mow
er are made to figure in a most painful light.
The whole story of the alleged outrage upon
Gen. Mower’s daughter is false, from the be
ginning to the end, aod has no better foun
dation than the following :
One night after the lamily had retired, one
of the men belonging to the command enter
ed the room where three of the children
were asleep, with the object, no doubt, of
stealing some of the valuable trinkets belong
ing to the girls. One of the children, aged
eight years, was awakened by the noise and
screamed out, thus giving the alarm. The
man was at once secured, and ordered to
undergo some light punishment. At the
lime I left Ship Island it was reported that
he had deserted.
As a relative of Gen. Mower, I feel it a
duty to give the above plain statement of
facts, which have been so shamefully exag
gerated as to call for this reply to your ar
ticle. P. B. Pebklns.
Mascjjio Banquet.—The members of the
Masonic Supreme Council, of the Thirty-
third Degree, eat down yesterday evening to
a splendid entertainment, furnished by
M»j or Horback, proprietor of the Charleston
Hotel. The bill of fare, which was beauti
fully printed in crimson and gold letters by
Mr. James W. McMillan, was nut only a fine
specimen of the art preservative of all arts,
but presented peculiar gastronomic attrac
tions. The number of guests was limited,
including only the members of the C mncil
and tbc most distinguished Masons. Gen.
Albert Pike, the illustrious grand com
mander, who had arrived during the morn
ing. was present.
The following is the list of the Supreme
Council delegates at the Charleston Hotel,
who were present at tbe dinner: General
Albert Pike and J. J. Worsham, Memphis,

Sinking of tne Schooner R. R, Town*
send.
Fortress Monroe, May 1, 1S63.
Tbe schooner T. W. H. White, Captain
Smith, from Jacksonville, Fia., with a cargo
of lumber for Philadelphia, put«in this morn-
iDg with Captain Townsend and the crow of
the schooner R. R. Townsend, of Haiti more,
which foundered at sea on the night of the
27th of April.
Captain Townsend reports that he cleared
from Savannah, Ga., with a cargo of rail-
load iron for Richmond, Va., aiuTsahed on
the 17th nit. On the 22d a heavy northeas:
gale bet in, which continued until the veesJ
went down. The veissel sprung aleak ou the
night of the 26tb, and ail hands were called to
the pumps, and the vessel headed for lmd,
m the heps of making Wilmington, In C.
The water continued to guiu ou the m, and
on the morning of the 27th tho schooner
T. W H. White was signalized, and asked
to follow her in, so that in case the vessel
foundered, tbe crew couid be taken off. The
pumps were worked diligently until dark on
the 27th, when the Captain, finding he could
not make port nor keep her afloat until
morning, reluctantly abandoned her. There
was a heavy sea running, and the water had
gained over two feet on them before she was
abandoned. The Captain states that when
he left the vessel she was about thirty miles
off Cape Fear shoals, aud that the wind had
shifted and commenced blowing a gale from
the westward, making a chopping sea, aod
destroying his lajt hope of saving hia vessel.
The R. R. Townsend was a schooner of 150
tons, built in Baltimore io September, 1861,
and was considered A No. 1. Capt. Town
send and the crew leave this evening for
Philadelphia.—Cor. N. Y. Herald.
Rabb Luck.—Lemuel Jones* a lad about
slsteen yean of age, recently met with ex
traordinary good fortune. He wae engaged
in urn task of walking from Erie to Chicago,
being a venturesome lad, and haying some
▼ague plan of seeking his fortune in the lat
ter city. Between Euclid and Cleveland he
piclfed up a large wallet, tightly tied with a
piece of red tape. Upon opening tho wallet,'
$6,000 in greenbacks were disclosed to the
glistening eyes of the boy, who had not ex
pected to find his fortune in so short a time
after leaving home. There were no papers
in the wallet indicating to whom it belonged,
and it is possible the boy wiU remain in un
disputed possession of the money. The
wallet had been exposed to tbe weather, and
wap considerably damaged; some of the
greenbacks, too, were somewhat injured from
wet, but not enough to affect tbe value of
tbem.—CVew&nd Pkundealcr.
The Episcopal Schism—To what it max
Possibly Lead.—A correspondent of the
Ch.cago Tribune writes as follows from New
York, concerning a subject which “ just now
occupying a good deal of attention in church
circles :
Some time ago the Chicago Tribune con
tained an article on the Tyng case, arguing
that it was bat the beginning of a schism in
the American Episcopal Church like that of
Wesleyism in tne Anglican Church. At thu
time I considered this view of the matter an
exaggerated qie ; but since then conversa
tions with several prominent Low Church
clergymen have showed mo that the view
taken in your editorial was a correct one.
There is no doubt that Mr. Tyng and his
clerical sympathizers, sooner than submit to
the erroneous doctrines of tho ultra High
Church party, will leave the Episcopal Church
aud form an independent sect—retaining,
probably, the liturgy of theCburcb, bu te
jecting its government and present prevailing
policy. This schism may be obviated b>
prudentwetion at the next General CoDveu-
tion in regard to the obnux.ous canon which
Mr. Tyng disregarded. On the other hand,
the High Church party declare that the canon
in question will never be abrogated or modi
fied ; and soma of them further maintain
that, should Mr. Tyng and his entire con
gregation decide to leave the Episcopal com
munion, they cannot take with them the
church building which they erected and paid
for; because said church building was con
secrated to the use of the Protestant Episeo
pal Church, and to that orly. Thus, if this 1
view of property be correct, - Mr- Tyng’s
church will in time be an outlaying chapel
of St. Albans, and devoted to the develop
ment and display of the “last sweet things
in vestments.”
The last relic of slavery in Rhode Island
has disappeared. In the census of 1840 five
slaves were reported from that S ate. In the
next census none were reported, the five
being either dead or manumitted. The last
of the number, Jennie Hazard, was buried
on the 26th ult., at Newport, R. I., having
died at the age of ninety-six years. She
was bom the slave of Jonathan Easton, and
served the Hazard family through three gen
erations. For years she was supported by
tbe representatives of that family. The
census of 1840, which reported five slaves in
Rhode Island, also reported seven een in
Connecticut, three hundred aod thirty-one
i% Illinois, three in Indiana, sixteen in Iowa,
one in New Hampshire, four in New York,
three in Ohio, sixty-four io Pennsylvania,
and eleven in Wisconsin. New Jersey had
six hundred and seventy-four. In 1850 all
thus, ted diinppenied from the census ex
cept two hundred and thirty-six from New
Jersey. In 1860 this number had dwindled
to eighteen,, hut the number of slaves in the
free Mates bad been reinforced by two in
ginias, the debatable ground.
Washington, May 7 —Senate.—The i m _
peach meat Court had a prolonged secret ses
sion wuich resulted iu the adoption of the
following: That the Court adjourn to Mon-
d;ty, at 11 o’clock, when it will consider
rules. A vote on the several articles ahall
be taken at noon ou Tuesday, without de-
oate. Speeches ahall be limited to fifteen
minutes on the entire subject* and not on
each article. Members may file written
opinions within two days after the vote on
the articles, to be published with the pro

A motion regarding the form in which the
Chief Justice snail put the question to Sena
tors was tubled.
House—A deficiency of $87,000 for the
administration ot tbc Reconstruction Acts
in the Third Military District was reported.
A joint rseolution was passed, ordering
the president to send war vessels to the
Gulf of St. Lawrence to protect the fishing
interests, and to demand reparation lor cer
tain injuries.
In the course of the debate, Pike said, who
is afraid of war ? Tue resolution asks no
thing but that your laws shall be in force.
An amendment was proposed to send ves
sels to the coast of Irelaud, to take care of
American interests there, was rejected.
During the debate, Pike thought some one
called him a coward, and made some inaudi
ble remark, for which he was called to order.
The tariff question was introduced. Pink
asked free trade for ship building materials.
Eidridge asked if free trade was good lor
New England builders why it was not good
for Western laborers. After a long discus
sion, somewhat jocular in character, but
showing oonaiderable sectional acrimony,
the resolution was passed by a vote of 92
to 39.
Mr. Robinson offered a resolution expung
ing the impeachment resolution from the
journal. The Speaker declared it not a
privileged question. Robinson said he
would bring it up again; it was a-mere ques
tion of time; it would ultimately be ex
punged.
Sieven9 introduced a bill for the admission
of Arkansas. It was ordered printed. The
House then adjourned.
Bteveu’s bill is as follows: Whereas the
people of Arkansas, in pursuance of the pro
visions of an act entitled an act to provide
for tho more efficient government of the
rebel States, passed March 2d, 1867, and the
acts supplementary thereto have framed
und adopted a Constitution of State govern
ment which is Republican in form, aod the
Legislature of said State has duly ratified
the amendment to the Constitution of the
Uuited States, proposed by the Thirty-ninth
Congress, aud known as article fourteen;
therefore, be it enacted, that the State of
Arkansas is entitled and admitted to repre
sentation in Congress as one of the Slates of
the Union upon following fundamental con
ditions, viz: That the Constitution of Arkan
sas shall never oe so amended or changed as
to deprive any citizen or class of citizens of
the United States of the right to vote who
ate entitled to vote by the Constitution here
in recognized, except as a punishment for
such crimes as are now felonious at common
law, whereof the party shall have been duly
convicted.
Delegation with the North Carolina Consti
tution and several members of the Con
gressional Delegation have arrived.
Internal Revenue to day $448,000.
There was a heavy storm this afternoon
and consequently no Western market were

It is stated the adjournment of the Sen

A Fact to ns Noted.—Bills of exchange
on England made payable to the order of a
woman are almost lurariably returned, if
they are endorsed with the prefix “ Mrs." by
tfie person in whose favor they are drawn, it
being the law in England that provided the
prefix - Mrs.” is used, it is not forgery for
any one to attach the name of a woman to a
note or bill of exchange. Bills ot exchange
should not, therefore, be drawn in the name
of the husband of a married women, with
the prefix “Mrs.," and to leave off the
“ Mrs.” would be to misdirect tbe avails of
the bill. Tbe only way, therefore, is obvi
ously to use tbe husband's surname with the
lady's maiden Christian name prefixed, with-
rat any title.
