Open Communion. | Bishop Cumimna. of Kentucky, ha* j ( written a letter vindicating nia own con- I j luct and that of the Dean of Canrtebnry ; in the matter of their commuzxioL in J Presbyterian churches.

Tin famous wit and beauty, Lady Wortley Montague, made the most sar castic observation ever pr Wished about her own sex. “ It goes far,*’ she said, "to reconcile me to being a woman wheal reflect that l am thus in no dangiT of marrying one.” Tine New Orleans Herald relates how a pot monkey in that city, seeing that a little child was on the point of being ran over by a street car, rushed into the street and wrenched the child from the jaws of death. That beats any monkey wrench ever heard of before. Thick* are n»#w pending in the District Court of San Joaquin county, says the Stockton Independent of October 7, twenty-six divorce cases, fourteen of which have been commenced within the last thirty days. Happily for the inter ests of society, during the same period the county clerk has issued twenty-nine marriage licenses. Matrimony has the beat of divorce by three. Gold win Smith doubts "whether a more active or a more virulent poison was ever infnsod into the veins of a nation than that which is infused into the veins of the American nation by such school histories as are used in the United States,” and wants to know “what con be expected if people are fed through their childhood on such stimulants of national vanity and malignity.” Tna other night, at a concert in At lanta, a gentleman having put his hat upon a chair to retain it, went out to see a man. When he returned to claim it the hat was there sure enough, but a stout lady was sitting on it. “ Madam, said ho, “you are sitting on my hat." Tho lady blushed, turned round, and said, in tho blandest manner: “ Oh, I beg pardon; I thought it was my hus band's 1" A young man of our acquaintance who has traveled and tippled at both places, says the only difference between Atlanta and Chattanooga whisky is, that after hoisting in a drink of the latter beverage you immediately take a short cut to the nearest railroad and go to sleep on the track, but when you load up with the former, a burning desire to steal a bom* an l buggy takes complete possession of you. KasinrMBNT or Goods to Euaors.— The currency pressure has caused in New York tho reshipment of costly goods to Europe, there being at present no maxkct for them in that city. Silks, satins, vel vets. looes. and ribbons, constitute the greater portion of tho withdrawal from tho warehouses. No duty lias been paid on those wares, but ruinous loss has boon entailed from insurance, freight and handling. A marked decrease in the revenue will naturally result. A new way of preserving autumn leaves is given :is follows: Iron themfresh with a warm (not hot) iron, on which some spermaceti ha*» been lightly rubbed. This method preserves perfectly their lovely tints, and gives a waxy gloss which no other ono secures. The process is very rapid and very agreeable, and no lady who has over tried the tedious and uncer tain experiment of pressing will ever again resort to it after onco trying this now and better wny. Ay old oook, a Frenchman, gives the following receipt for making French rarebit, which he declares beats Welsh rarebit all hollow: “ Tako three ounces of cheese, cut it in small square pieces, and set it to fry with a little pieeo of butter. When jour cheese begins to melt have three eggs beaten up with salt anti pepper. Pour them upon your cheese. Stir and roll it all into a sort of muff and Like it off. The whole opera tion should not tako moro than one or two minutes." Among recent arrivals at Fulton, Ar- kan*a* ( was M. W. Dickson, a ranch nan of Drawn county, Texas, where he has five thousand bend of cattle. A few weeks ago he was attacked by Coinanches and Kfowas. who shot at him. Thirteen bul lets took effect in his body—one in his right shoulder, six in the breast and ab domen, four in the left arm, ono in the right side of tho neck, and ono in the buck of tho head. He was rescued before the Indians hod time to scalp him, and had to stay at home two weeks on account of his wounds. rople who are one in faith and love, on«* in Christ, their great head. As far as I know, the liberal Episcopalians of New York rejoice in the action of the Dean of Canterbury, and tliank God for it. When the Episcopal Church of En- gland and the United States has been able to clear herself, winch may God in His infinite mercy soon grant, of the deadly evil of ritualism, whose last devel opment in a revival of the confessional, then, and not till then, may she become a haven of rest to maimed souls who I would rejoice to see her the common cen- j tre and bond of organic unity to all Pro tan t Christendom/’ CLOTHING How tho Cincinnati Radicals Went Back on the “Man and Brother.” The New York Herald’s Cincinnati cor respondent, under date of October 16th, writ** oo follows of tho late election in that city and State t The colored people voted solid with the Radicals, and did not measurably de part from their party adherence, although there was some displeasure manifest in this county on account of the compelled ird/tdr.iira/ of Parham, candidate for the Legislature, the only colored man on the Re publican ticket. Parham was nominated, hut when it came to the sticking place he teas squeezed out, undoubtedly for fear of the odium that might attach to his candidacy. We well recollect the hurrah and fuss mode by the trooly loyl papers of Cincin nati when Parham was nominated. He lead the whole ticket in the convention, and the trooly loyal heralded the news all over the country as evidence of the per fect equality they were enforcing in their party, and of the estimation in which they held the black man. But it seems they didn’t mean it to stick. It was only a sharp trick to quiet diaffscction among the colored brethren, and when that had been effectually smothered they kicked Parham overboard. Poor Sambo! He has always bad a roaster in this country, and it seems he always will. He appears, on the whole, rather to like it, too. AT WHOl ESALE.

The following is from the New York Tribune We find that the average crop of the six years 1855 to 1860, inclusive, was 3,800,000 bales, while the average of the three years 1870 to 1872, inclusively, is 3,750,000 bole*. The crops of 1853 and 18*54 were each less than 3.000,000 bales. These figures, we submit, amply demonstrate that free labor is quite as effective as slave lalior in the production of cotton. The Tribune, as is usual when papers or persons talk about matters of which they know little, jumped to a wrong con elusion^ as the Raleigh (N. C.) Sentinel conclusively demonstrates as follows t We have one comment to submit, and if we are in error we would be glad to be corrected by any of tho intelligent farm ers. We do not think that the Tribune*! figure* pruvo that free labor has been tu effective as slave labor. We grant that viewed from a Northern standpoint, they have that aspect, but we who livo in the South, as a matter of fact, know that tho freedmen have not worked over two-thirds as well as they did when they were slaves. The question may then be asked, if this lie so, how is it that of four great cotton crops two have- been made since the war, and the average of the crops for three years has been nearly equal to that of two years before the war. We have this to say in explana tion : First, the census must be referred to in order to learn if there is not a great diminution in the other crops—cereals, to bacco, etc. In other words, while the 1‘otton crop may be approximately os large, there has been a very great falling off in the production of hreadstuffs, and other leading staples. Second, the cot ton planters have become actually more intelligent and enterprising. That is to say they are more devoted in their own personal efforts, use for more fertilizers, and cultivate the soil on much more scientific principles. To these facts, more than to any fidelity on tho part of the negro labor, is to be attributed, as wo believe, the close comparison of tho fig ures os given by the Tribune. Reduction or Labor in Philadel phia.—Quite a number of the large man ufacturing establishments in Philadel phia are now running on half time. Among the number ore Messrs. Porter & Dickey, employing three hundred hands; Irwin & Stinson, and James No- lin’s Star Mills, four hundred hands. The mills of James Long, Brother &, Co. have suspended operations temporarily, and Martin Londenberger’s knittting mills have also suspended. A large reduction has been made in the number of hands in the various manufactories. The cause of the reduction is the countermanding of orders by the customers. At the Baldwin locomotive works a curtailment has been going on since the panic commenced. Last Saturday night there were between five and six hundred hands discharged. There are two thousand men still employed. Tho railroads are also decreasing the working expenses of their roods, thus lessening the demand for locomotives and other rolling stock. The manufacturers of Pittsburg have decided to pay their hands half the amount of their weekly wages and credit them with tho other half until flaaeM affairs become more settled, instead of discharging one-half of their employes. This shows the confidence the manufac turers have in the permanence of their trade. If the general body of the com munity and the banks and their custo mers wore to exhibit similar confidence.

Neither a bold nor an original man, ho is regarded by his admirers a** a genius and u hero ; let currency flow freely as it did be- a man without personal magnetism, he is j for® the panic, no such “half pay” ar- spavsd aud liked even by his political ad- rangoment would be needed.
