have been happy, my conscience baa

?and I believe that I hare been

"Mr. Darst continued that, quite
apart from hla own satisfaction, he
would feel very differently tf he wero
leaving a church that might autter
materially, at least temporarily, by
his departure, buf that 8t. James,
was so sturdy, loyal and firm, aa
church and congregation, that he had
no fear as to Its continuing health
and progreea. Add he closed with a
brief expreaelon of hla love and admiration"
for tbo church and its (Miopia.
.
"Although not yet thirty-nine
years ot age, Mr. Darst lias had a
remarkable career. His first charge
or Importance was St. Mark's church,
In this city, where he remained some
years, and from which he was called
to St. Paul'a church, in Newport
News, which he served for four years.
When the health of Rev. William
Meads Civ*. D ? ? then rector of
St James became feeble, the vestry
determined to secure an aaslatant for
him, and, la iscoordence with Mr.
Clark's wishes, Mr. Darst was called |
to St. James In- that capacity.
"He assumed his duties last February.
and Instantly attracted attention
throughout the city by his splendid
preaching, which drew many
young men, in particular, and, upon
the death of the well-beloved rector
n April he was called by vestry to
the pastorate of the church. Young,
active and manly, Mr. Darst'a popularity
and Influence have steadily
grbwn in the community, while his
sermons, thoroughly practical, yet
always devoted to the exposition of
'.he gospel and free from sensationalism,
have uot only held the members
af the contraction closely together,
but have drawn many visitors to the
church. He will bfc the youngest
diocesan bishop in the House of
Bishops of the Episcopal church In
the United States.
"8t. James churclr has alwaysj

This would give Russia such superiority
In the Black eea that there
would be no danger of Turkish raids.
It is suggested also that demobolisatfcm
of the Turkish army would be
demanded, which would mean thai
those troops which have crossed tho
Egyptian fruitier must be withdrawn.
However, as the terms of Turkey's
apology have not been published and
