to go through the ceremonies of the ritual,
to talk to women and children abont “the
Church,” to swell with the assurance of
apostolical pedigree, and to behave with
ceremonial decency at weddings and funer
als—all that requires no more use of the in
tellect than the functions of a Musselman
Imau m. We lament the decadence of the
pulpit in the Episcopal Church for many
reasons. It will draw into their ministry
many men of small capacity who can not
maintain themselves where preaching pro
vides an intellectual test. It will inevitably
foster Ritualism, as the expedient of cleri
cal mediocrity to preserve its respectability.
Worse than all, it will utterly prevent “the
Church ” from “preaching the gospel to the
poor,” which is the grand commission of
Christianity. In our conversations with
Episcopalians, nothing is so striking and so
painful as the disregard for the sermon. By
many it seems only tolerated. Tet our
Lord instituted it as the one human instru
ment of saving the world; and history gives
universal attestation to the wisdom of the
provision. We respectfully suggest to the
evangelical part of the Episcopal clergy that
they should turn their attention to strength
ening the pulpit against the encroachments
of the desk. Preaching is too strong for
ceremonies when it has free course.
There is one other matter oi which, in all
kindness and good humor, we feel moved to
speak. Asa general thing the courtesy and
urbanity of the Episcopal clergy are admir
able, but it really is not polite to compel
every Methodist, even immediately upon in
troduction, to decline an invitation to join
“the Church,” especially when the invita
tion is based upon the presumed inferiority
of his own. Methodist bishops and minis
ters do not feel it necessary to tell their
Episcopalian brethren upon sight all the de
fects we think we see in their denomina
tion. It would not be courteous, and
conrtesy is not denominational. Only
g idgeons can be caught by this sort of fish
ing, and, perhaps, “the Church,” like
other, Churches has enough of these al
ready.
Since the writing of. the above we have
seen the Pastoral Address of the Bishops.
It is unexpectedly evangelical in its tone,
and decided in its rebuke of Romanist doc
trines and Ritualist innovations. It is quite
exhilirating to find the Episcopal bishops so
unequivocally on the side of spiritual
religion. We are sincerely glad of it, and
earnestly hope that their admonitions will
bo lioede.d by the Church — St. Louis Chris
tian Advocate.

Chinamen— Sea- Lions— Kelp— San Diego.
BY BISHOP KEENER.
IjOs Angeles, Oct. 20, 1871.
I begin where I left off rather than where
I am. A missionary who is laboring in San
Francisco among the Chinese, the Rev. Mr.
Graves, of the Southern Baptist Church,
and who has spent years at Canton, was kind
enough to introduce me to the Chinese
quarter. This occupies several entire
squares quite in the business part of the
city. It if not merely rented, but largely
owned by wealthy Chinamen, and is sub
leased to suffocation. I have observed dif
ferent races of men require different meas
ures of oxygen; the English more than the
French, and negroes and Chinamen least of
all. The latter can festoon themselves after
a style that would seem to place one to every
square yard of habitable shelter. In every
room or shop, whether large or small, into
which we looked, there were from four to
ten men. Those at work were very busy,
but a good many were louuging or saunter
ing as if waiting for something to turn up.
This composes a large class. There are
among them seventy gambling houses, duly
advertised as such—to be known by their
white sigus. Fifty thousand or more of
these wide-awake Orientals will make an
impression upon San Francisco and all this
ooast that cau be felt; and many more are
on the way. Two-thirds of the gold mines
of Oregon and California are owned by
them. Whenever a mine pays less than 85
a day to the hand, it is abandoned or sold
by Americans, and falls into the hands of
Chinamen. Thero is no comparison be
tween this race and the negro. Every one
of these people of the “myriad land ” can
read and write; they cau work as long, as
hard and as swift as a Connecticut farmer.
As factory hands they can surpass any race
in endurance mid long continued activity.
Their presence in this country will give rise
to a contest as fierce as any that has ever
been waged on account of the African. The
laboring man of white blood cannot competo
with these men of the East, because he is
not content to broatho as little air, to live
on us plain fare, or to dress as roughly as
they do. But the capitalist seeks cheap
labor, and shuts his eyes to everything else;
and the politician prefers a constituency
that can bo bought to one that can only be
oonvincod. It may be set down ns one of
the uses of Mexico, that she has demon
strated the impossibility of a republic in a
population of different colored races. Thero
are three missions, the Baptist, Presbyte
rian and Northern Methodist, doing good
work here among these civilized heathens
from China.
Ia steaming out of the Golden Gate, just as
it is passed, going down the coast, one sees
several large rocks, a quarter of a mile or
less from the shore, which are covered with
sea-birds, seals and sea-lions. They are
protected by law, and constitute one of the
curiosities of San Francisco. The seal is
not unlike a Chinese baby about the head
and eyes, as it lifts itself straight up out of
the water and looks at you quite intelligent
ly, with only the long neck and round head
visible. These creatures manage with their
flippers to climb up to the top of these
rocks, and there they lie in the sun, with
an occasional sea-lion among them, that
would weigh several thousand pounds. In
the water they swim in droves, and are ac
tive enough to chase down the shoals of
fish.
The sea was as smooth as an inland lake
all the way from San Francisco to San Diego
—save only the long swell that seems to be
a constant feature of the Pacific. At San
Pedro, the port of San Angeles, I for the
first time saw kelp, the sea-plant, from which
soda, bromine and iodine are made. It
spreads its long, leafy vine for twenty or
thirty feet upon the top of the wave, grow
ing in from ten to thirty-fathom water.
This stem, sometimes one hundred and
eighty feet in length, is securely fastened
by a bulbous-shaped root to the bottom.
Its leaves are a foot long, some five inohes
wide, of a rich autumn brown in the water,
and yellow out of it, tough, translucent, and
are covered with a muoilage that becomes
thick when exposed to the air, but dissolves
readily in fresh water. The vino is very
round, as large as a pipe stem, very strong,
and looks like amber. It is a wonderful
and beautiful creation that, by its mysteri
ous laboratory, changes sea water and sun
shine alternately into substances so preoious
for medicine and the arts. I had often
heard of kelp, but had supposed it like any
other marshy growth; but here I saw it was
one of the of vegetable life which
delight in the deep sea, making but little
account of the land. For miles its foliage
covers the top of the water and calms the
heads of the waves. The whale is often
found rising on the outer edge of the kelp
field, and whaling boats lying just inside
from that point make their attack upon
him.
San Diego is a most admirably located
city. It stands on an amphitheater, whose
sides gradually rise from one of the finest
harbors in the world. I question whether
Constantinople has a better site. The
American town, called “the New Town,”
has grown up in three years. It was larger
than I expected to see—has a hotel in it
worthy of New Orleans, and several churches.
The largest vessels ever built can ride at its
wharves, and are perfectly protected. I
stirred round daring the six hours we were
there, and secured the best lot in town for a
Southern Methodist Churoh. In two or
three years the locomotive will start in
Julia street, New Orleans, and stop in San
Diego.—. Yew Orleans Christian Advocate.
Errors in Eschatology. Oar South
Carolina correspondent refers to certain er
rors in Eschatology, which have found their
way even into the Palmetto State, which is
not inclined to give countenance to “ divers
and strange doctrines.” It is sad to see a
man who has solemnly vowed to drive away
each, fall in with them and attempt to give
them currency. The notion of the sleep of
the soul ( psychopannychy) was held by cer
tain Anabaptist heretics in Switzerland,
about the time of the Reformation; but it
was promptly opposed by the Reformers. It
was revived in England by Priestly, and
other Socinians, and some fanatical people
in this country are indorsing the nnphilo
sophical and unscriptural tenet. Origen
questioned the eternity of future punish
ment; but he had few followers in the early
Church. Arnobius favored the absurd fig
ment of the annihilation of the wicked.
This Wild notion is now engrafted by cer-
tain “ Adventists,” as they are called, upon
their hallucination abont the corporeal ad
vent of Christ before the Millennium, and
reign upon the earth daring that hal
cyon period! One error leads another in its
train. It is dangerous to deviate, in one jot
or tittle, from the faith once delivered unto
the saints. The eschatological errors, to
which we have alluded, are not denounced
in the Confession of the Anglican Church,
(from which ours is taken,) because the
truths which they oppose are fully set forth
in the Offices and Homilies of the Church.
The Millenarian delusion was indeed de
nounced as heresy in the Forty-two Articles
set forth in the reign of King Edward VL,
but that Article was omitted as needless
when the Thirty-nine Articles were pub
lished. The error in question is opposed
by the Collects for the First and Third
Sundays in Advent; and that, and the sleep
of the soul, the annihilation of the wicked,
and their redemption from hell, are all set
aside by the Burial Service, which, in regard
to these points, is eminently judicious,
rational, and scriptural.— Nashville Christian
Advocate.
The Chicago Fire. —The New York Ob
server gathers the following statistics and
facts in reference to the losses occasioned
by the fire: The Chicago Tribune, after a
careful survey of the rains, makes the fol
lowing statement as to what remains: “It
appears that out of the sixty thousand build
ings in Chioago, only about thirteen thous
and five hundred have been destroyed; and
that while ninety-two thousand persons
have been driven from their homes, over
two hundred and forty-five thousand have
not been affected in that way. The whole
immense area of the west division, with its
miles of dwelling houses, its stores and its
business blocks, is almost intact; while the
south side retains the great mass of its
dwelling houses of the latter class, many
manufactories, and the fine business blocks
which have been erecting on Twenty-second
street and Archer Avenue, and at other
points, many of its finest churches, and the
innumerable manufactories which abound
in the Sixth Ward. Os the losses, few will
be more deeply felt than the destruction of
so many churches. Nearly seventy-five
churches, mission schools, etc., were de
stroyed. The New England Church, one of
the most elaborate structures in the city,
was laid in rains, as was the home of every
member of the church.
Americanizing the East —The influence
of American institutions, and of the Ameri
can system generally, continues to be felt
more and more in' the eastern Asiatic coun
tries. This is especially true in Japan.
Last week the Japanese minister concluded
an engagement with General George B. Wil
liams, of Indiana, under which the latter
will go out to Japan early in January next
for the purpose of organizing an internal
revenue system there similar to our own.
General Williams is now Second Deputy
Commissioner of Internal Revenue at Wash
ington, and has also had experience as As
sessor, Collector, and Supervisor of Intern
al Revenuo, having been employed in these
separate offices for an aggregate of five or
six years. It is considered that no better
selection for the position can be make, both
on account of his personal address and gen
erally acknowledged administrative abilities.
The engagement is for three years, at a
large salary.
Death op Miss Annie M. Doggett.
This lady died of pulmonary consumption,
at the residence of her father, Bishop Dog
gett, in this city on the 2d instant. Her
sickness was long, wearisome and painful,
and was borne with the heroic fortitude of
Christian faith. Gifted by nature with a
brilliant mind, a warm heart, and a gener
ous disposition, she made many devoted
friends. A few days before her death, as
her father was alone with her, she asked him
to take her hand in his and pray for her.
The Bishop did so, and while they both
prayed thero fell upon father and child such
a baptism of the Holy Ghost as neither had
ever before received. They were filled with
joy unspeakable and full of glory. In this
happy frame she continued until the weary
wheels of life stood still, and death placed
his signet on her brow. “Blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord. — Rich. Advocate.
Ministerial Reinforcements for Eas
tern British America. —Twelve young and
promising Wesleyan Local Preachers sailed
from Liverpool, October 10th, for Halifax,
designing to labor in Nova Beotia and ad
joining provinces. They come out under

forty years has labored as a missionary in
Eastern British America. On tho evening
before the steamer left Liverpool a valedic
tory servioe of great interest was held, con
ducted by Rev. Dr. G. Scott. In the course
of tho evening several of the young mis
sionaries gave an account of their conver
sion and call to the work of the ministry,
and Mr. Angwin delivered an appropriate,
encouraging, and heart-stirring address.

Great Losses in the Arctic Ocean. —A
telegram from San Francisco announces a
terrible disaster in the Arctic Ooean. The
fleet of whaleships working northward to
Cape Behring and Plover Bay, and thence
into the Arctic Ocean, were surrounded
soon after tho Ist of September with drift
ing ice-floes and bergs. By the 10th seveial
were crushed. On the 13th those of the
vessels shut in, but not yet crashed, were
abandoned, the sailors, about twelve hun
dred in number, taking refuge on the few
vessels which escaped before the ice closed
in. Thirty-three ships wero lost, valued at
$1,500,000.

Washington, Nov. 11.—It is believed that the
spread of small pox in Eastern cities is attributa

ground of appeal is that the jurors should have
been summoned by the Territorial instead of the
Federal Marshals. The recent indictments and
convictions were made by jurors summoned by the
Federal Marshal, and a reversal in the pending
case will nullify the recent proceedings in Utah.

HOBNER’S
Maryland Super-Phospate.
To the Farmers and Planters of Maryland and the
South generally.
(We court the Chemist’s Inquiry.)
1 After 23 years’ experience in the Fertilizing bus
iness, and after establishing a wide reputation for
the purity and excellence of his Bone Dust, the sub
scriber has been induced to prepare a Phosphate
suitable to the requirements and every way worthy
the attention of the Southern Tamer.
The “Maryland” is a Rejuvenator and permanent
Improver of the soil. It stimulates equal to Peru
via:.. Guano, and sustains equal to Bone, being com
posed almost entirely of these ingredients, with a
very liberal percentage of Potash in the residuum.
There is no adulterater nor inferior article used—
every particle of the Phosphate being of essential
benefit to the land. Neither pains nor expense
have been spared In Its preparation, and we claim
for it the greatest benefit to the farmer from the
smallest outlay.
For Cotton, Wheat and Com, and as a general
stimulant and aliment for worn and impoverished
land there can be nothing superior. It is war
ranted to ran as high in Ammonia and higher in
Bone Phosphate than any other fertilizer In the
market.
