I The Ibllofrjyf^^,"' sketch of the vcocr- t able bishop'sThy^B prepared by Rev. D. i Hunch M. Marvin was born in Warren t county, Missouri, June 12, 1823. In \ugust, 1839, he joined the church at i Jethlehem eautp ground, in St Charles t county, and in December, 1810, experienced I the blessings of renewing grace, the evidence of which was clear and undoubted. In IS 11 he entered the itinerancy in the i> muds of the Missouri Conference, and was appointed to Grundy Mission. Ilis second app-dntmcnt was to Oregon Mission, liis third to Liberty Circuit, his fourth to St Louis as the colleague of llev. Wesley Drowning. then Weston Circuit, then Hannibal Station, then to Montieello and Palmyra, then to St Charles Circuit, then St. Charles District, after which for a time he was ag"iit for the colleges, then pastor at different times of the Centenary and First churches in St. Louis. At the commencement of the late war between the States he wont South, and for a time-served the Marshall Station in Texas. At the General Conference in New Or- 1 leans in 18GG, lie was elected to the cpisco-' ^^^an^siouary tour of the worlu. Few men were ever MGttK SELF-SACK! 'ICI \(i, more devoted to the church, or more earnest, diligent or persevering in the work of the ministry. As a preacher and teacher oi the gospel of Christ; as the author of! several valuable works; as a miscellaneous writer, and as one of the general superintendents of the church, he was too extensively and too well known to make it necessary for us to say anything on these point* at prCSCIlt. lie Was an nnrnnct io.U.CMK gable man. alfrf", as wo t-liiuk, literaliiTlffljpr od himself* to death. Always reafl^ and J] willing to go ',crc a,,d there, ami iot M^t|j and every way do what he could for the ' welfare of the church and the salvation of souls. Thus has one of our chief pastors fallen ?a good man, true to his conviction of right and duty. Mis work is done. His ( toils and sufferings arc past, lie rests from i his labors, and'has gone to his final account i and eternal reward. "The Lord gave, and ' tiie Lord hath taken away." "It is the Lord ; let Him do what scemetli Him good." Thousands will mourn, and while they mourn may we all prepare to follow. Home further particulars may be added to what Dr. Me Anally has said in the above. Bishop Marvin was a self made man, and rhrTOgh deprived of educational advantages in early life, lie subsequently ^acquired dinus habits and was a close student. In his contioversy with Father Sinarius 011 the doctrino of trnusubstantiatioii ha acquitted himself with ( HEAT CRr.IHT, displaying acquirements that surprised his learned rival. The discussion was published in a book. Among Bishop Marvin's other literary efforts was Christ, and the Atonement, lie also published over a year ago a volume of sermons. In 1870 was published also iioui his pen a biography of Kcv. W. C Copies, of the Missouri conference, lu August, 187t>, he left St. Louis via Sao-Ifa nciseo on a tour around the worm ana, reiurnea mo pa*i summer, arriving in St. Louis just a year from the day lie set out. On that trip lie attended a conference in California, and sailed from >r San Francisco on the first day of November, 1870. He visited 011 his trip Japan, Egypt. India, Turkey, the Holy Land, England, Ireland and France. A GRAPHIC ACCOUNT of his travols will be out about tho 1st of J)ecomber, in a volume of 500 pages, entitled, "To the East by way of the west.? By Bishop E. M. Marvin, D. 1)." On going South in the early part of the war, he became chaplain at Sterling l'ricc's headquarters. The bishop leaves a wife and one sou, Fielding Marvin, who is a physician, and vN 'r? KoBberieg.

To Starch and IitoN Shirt Bosoms ?Thinking perhaps some of tho sisters of The \Yv*tern Rural uiuy have some of these articular youug men in their families to lo up shirts for, and not always having rood luck, I will tell them uiy way of dung them. Take nearly a tablcspoonful of starch for ach bosom ; dissolve in a little 'cold water aid pour in boiling water, stirring briskly mtil it looks clear, bo careful not to have t too thick ; boil three or four minutes. If he bosoms and cuffs are dry, wet them in add water before putting theui through the tarch ; hang out on the line, and wben they ire dry, put them through some thiu. cold tarch so they will be stiff enough ; roll ight and let thcui licjiu hour or two beore ironing. When yow iron them, leave ho until lUo loot, tl\<>j* takp n.rljiiUU loll* f?nil rtiK RVtir it- fn nmf '^Hl bio putting the iron on it. When >:n is ironed dry, wring the cloth ottl of 'he voter, leaving it pretty wet. and rub lighty over, then dry again. This makes the ;h'S.s. If the starch sticks to the iron it M ccause it was too thick.
