The Bishop of this Diocese visited the colored Protestant Episcopal church last night and confirmed a class of twenty . - persons. Mis text was rrom the fipistio for the day : "Walk in the Spiritand ye shall not fulfil the lusta of the flesh." " The responses to the . Psalter, and the .marked interest in the choral service. show that if the church would take her services to the colored people with a plenty of symbolism and ritual, a great deal more life would be enthused, and very much more good accomplished. The Kev. Massiah has taken upon him self the responsibility of the repairs of the church which has transformed the old into new, and he will gladly receive contribution from the friends and well wishers of the church in Asheviiie, other wise he must go East to raise funds. We hope that Episcopalians and other Christians will come to his aid. We understand that the -Rev. Mr. Berry the old pastor proposes to return to New York. He will carry with him the best wishes of many friends among both the white and colored people. -- For the Asheviiie CmziN. THREE TIMES THREE CHEERS FOR OLD RUTHERFORD. Messr.

C, and the -Rev. Mr. Marks of Aberdeen. Miss. The occasion was the annual visitation of the Bishop to the parish. His sermon was from the text I. John, Chap. 2, verse 16, 17. "For all that is in the world, ' the? lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes, -and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And ' the world passeth awav, and th lust thereof; but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever." The sermon was eminently earnest and spiritual. A class of nine persons were confirmed.

Mrs. Mollie Wilson, an old lady'residing some two miles from the city, had the mis fortune this morning to fall downthe steps and break her left arm just above her hand. As she is some 77 years old, it is feared she may not recover. Dr. Burroughs was called in, and rendered every assistance. The Shakespeare Water Cube Afforded immense entertainment to the large audience gathered at the Opera Hall on ' Saturday evening,- coming for amusement, tmjjn !J&yMawp$ what was before them. There was soon unfolded a - serjes of characterizations utterly at war with all preconceived ideas of the heros and heroines of the immor tal Shakespeare. . There was a rollicking delight in stripping from them the robed of tragedy or the illusions of sentiment and bringing them down to the level of every day life, with all the enjoyment of fun or with all the life, spirit or temper that belongs to the common herd, and there was an amusing and novel bold ness in bringingjall the characters which live in the histrionic world, the repres entations of different ages and people upon a contemporaneous stage. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and Ophelia, Shylock and or tia, all shook hands on easy familiarity, and entered with very human zest into the pleasures 'of the Water Cure resort. The young people bore their parts with admirable conception- of the characters they presented, with a ready apprehen sion of the travesty they made of the ideal. Lady Macbeth was magnificent in person, in costume and in carriage, but she was the domineering, perhaps shrewish wife, rather than the fiercely ambitious woman; and Macbeth was the henpecked husband shivering in mor tal terror at the voice of his better half rather than he was to be driven by her superior will to attain a kingdom through blood and murder. Juliet was the very deal th character in grace and beautv. but she had come down from the of love to. show herself the gpoilt young wife Mrs. Kentague full 01 feminine vanities,, and with a very perceptible share of feminine spite. Romeo was no longer the devoted lover, but the spoilt handsome young husband very conscious of his good looks and bis power to make very jealous the heart of his Juliet.

Excitement m'coirstroom'and.in the vicinity Has Beldom, if ever, been equalled. Police were powerless to control the mob which had assembled to hear the proceedings.

Mrs. Jarrett, during Poland's statement, sat with calm demeanor close ly, resembling' Charles .Dickens' "Sally Brass" infold Curiosity Shop. Mr. Stead appeared unconcerned, smiling occasion ally, and at all times denying Poland's allegations.
