Mackonochie gives the world a further glimpse of his notions of the terms on which the Church should be related to 'the State. The ecclesiastical courts, he contends, should be restored to the character given to them in the original compact between the two branches of the body politic. " This compact provides that under the Crown matters spiritual shall be decided by that part of the body politic called the spirualty. This never excluded laymen. from sitting as judges in the ecclesiastical courts, provided they were skilled in canon law, sat by authority of the spiritualty, and were free from the control of `that part of the body politic called the tem poralty.'" Mr. Mackonochie looks forward with delight to the complete separation of Church and State. Even if the entire revenues of the Church were kept by the State, the freedom of the Church would be cheaply purchased. " Nevertheless," he says, "looking at the matter from the side of abstract justice, I think Church property may be divided thus, according to the intentions with which it was given. First, the churches built and the endowments given or bequeathed by private persons up to the reign of William and Mary were almost invariably left for spiritual purposes, and therefore ought to belong to the Church. Secondly, the same classes of property for the next 140 years were mostly given to the Church as to a spiritual police force, and therefore might rightly be claimed by the State. Thirdly, modern gifts and bequests have been mostly of the first kind, and ought, therefore, to follow the first class. Fourthly, tithes are a gift to God, made by the State at one period, which the State at another may, if it think fit, reclaim. But then I suppose that tithe-payers will have a right to claim that, when those which still go to their original purpose are remitted, the remainder which have fallen into lay hands shall also be remitted. This is, you will see, no more than a rough suggestive view of the question of justice, for which I am alone responsible." PASTORAL LETTER OF THE BISHOP OF GLOUCESTER AND BRISTOL. Bishop Ellicott is about to issue a pastoral letter under the title "Address to the Clergy and Laity of the Diocese of Gloucester and Bristol for the Year 1868, with Remarks on Present Church Questions." His lordship, feeling that the delivery of an annual charge taxes the physical powers of some of the older clergy, and that in these days a bishop ought to have more frequent communication with the whole body of his clergy than is secured by a triennial visitation, intends to issue a pastoral letter annually, except after the years wherein the annual visitation occurs. After speaking " with much thankfulness" of the pro gress of Church work in his diocese, he briefly dwells on " the fair and temperate report on the trial of Bishop Colenso," believing that the good pro duced by it at the time and ever since has hardly yet been sufficiently realised. Respect ing the Ritual question, he remarks that " little more need be said than this, that now that the law has been finally declared in the matters called ira question, it is the solemn duty of every faithful member of the Church of England cheerfully to obey it." With regard to the Irish Church, he thinks that it is useless to deny that the country generally has expressed definitely at least this opinion, that the Church in Ireland cannot continue in its present state. He believes that the duty of, Churchmen is to wait patiently for the proposals to be laid before them, and then not fruitlessly to oppose everything, but to narrow their opposition to every change that would presumably weaken the Re formed Church and add power to the Church of Rome. Speaking of the future his lordship makes the following remarks:—" It does not seem unpardonable to express the opinion that the present session cannot pass without some measure which shall simplify the proceedings in our eccle siastical courts, and restore to the rulers of the Church that authority which of late has been practically lost to them. Such a measure must, of course, to some extent, bring into consideration the constitution of the final court of appeal in ecclesiastical matters. The present state, if it were only from the recent fact that in an important case only one ecclesiastical member of the court took part in the proceed ings, can hardly be deemed satisfactory. It seems also clear that some steps must be taken in reference to our cathedrals. Lastly, our recent troubles in connection with the Church in South Africa, and the apparently discordant decisions that have been given in reference to the whole question of the relation of the Colonial Church to the Church at home, render it perfectly certain that, either by commission or otherwise, measures must be taken for the final settle ment of this most grave and complicated question. We seem justified in hoping that the session will not pass with out some effort having been made to place the Colonial Church on a solid and a durable basis." THE WINDSOR ELECTION PETITION. - The Lonoon correspondent of the Limpol Atom, writ ing apropos to tho Windsor election petition, expresses his approval of the new system of hearing allegatons of bribery : Put he is rather doubtful as to saving expenses. The fees to counsel—always high in such cases -will now be higher still, because the learned gentlemen will be brought down from London, and will have each day to confine themselves to the one case. Under the old system some Parliamentary counsel were in as many as a dozen cases on the same day—election petitions and private bills included—all of which cases were going on at the same time. It was the habit of these fortunate barristers to make a tour of the corridor, looking into this room now, and into that in a few minutes after. Indeed, ono distinguished Queen's counsel of the Parliamentary bar would not undertake to do anything more in a case, so far as actual work in the committee-room, than make a speech ; but to secure this and to prevent "the other aide" from having him, you must "refresh" him and give him a "consultation" fee each day while the case was at hearing, even if the hearing lasted a month. It is only fair to him to say that when his similar engagements in respect of speech-making in other cases permitted, he would walk in and "take a witness" or two ; but, not being like Sir Boyle Roche's bird, ho could not be in two places at once. Mr. O'Malley, Q C., the leading counsel for Col. Richardson- Gardner at Windsor, would have had a "retainer" of fifty guineas and a "refresher" of ten guineas a day, with a five-guinea " consultation," if the cause had been heard in the old form at Westminster Palace. At Windsor ho had a "retainer" of 120 guineas and a "refresher" of fifty guineas a day. But there was not the expense of bringing all the witnesses to London, keeping them in clover here, and employing other people to watch them; nor were there the very heavy house fees which have to be paid by parties having business before Committees of the Commons. Colonel Richardson-Gardner will have to pay all the costs; but he is a very rich man, or, at least, the son-in-law of a very rich one. The gallant gentleman was never in the army nor the militia. He is honorary colonel of a corps of volunteers. His own name was Richardson, but ho assumed the additional sur name of Gardner on kis marriage with the daughter and only child of Mr. Gardner, a gentleman with an income of about £35,000 a year. Some of the New York papers propose that the centenary of the birth of Sir Walter Scott, which falls on the 15th August, 1871, should be celebrated throughout the English-speaking world. It seems pro bable that in America, at least, the proposal will be favour ably entertained. Lord Stanley was to have addressed a meeting in the mayor's parlour, Town Hall, Manchester, on Monday, of the Discharged Prisoners' Aid Society, but on the assembling of the meeting at twelve o'clock, a telegram was received from his lordship, stating that he had missed the train, and could not come in time for the meeting. A very large meeting assembled at the Lambeth Baths on Monday evening, to take into consideration the propriety of presenting an address to Air. John Abel Smith, in reference to his labours on b La f of the Sunday closing of public-houses. Resolutions in accord. ance with the objects of the meeting were unanimously adopted. COMPARISONS.—The Boston (U.S.) Advertiser says :—" A noted democratic politician of this vicinity was once asserting his entire indifference to the opinions of his opponents, and to their personal abuse. ' why,' said he, ' a man likened me the other day to Judas Iscariot, but I don't care." Yes, said a bystander, ' but how does Judas feel about it ?'" The clergy of the rural deanery of Kilmaerenan, in the county of Donegal, have passed a resolution approving of the principles of reconstruction of the Irish Church when disestablished which have been propounded in Archdeacon Stopferd's y' mpl let, and ca:;ing on the Bishop of Derry "to take early neron Nvith a viowto cony n ing a synod ie• preentative of the clergy and laity of the diocese" on those inciples. A t the Cham ber ,\gri a e n ol u ti u ir ti e l , o nti n le s e at ri ti g of rd:ly, the Staffo7dshire the question of local rating was discussed ; and a resclution was adopted expressing an opinion that the arc a for the collection of such rates ought to be extended as far as practicable, and that the general income and prop - rty of the country should contribnte to the support of those institutions which are necessary to the well-being of the entire community. The Earl of Harrowby was of opinion that it would not be possible to go further than to expect a contribution to local rates, in some such way as is now done in the case of Government contribution to county rates; but be thought that it would be mis chievous to hand over the entire mass of the poor to pationa) SUDDOrt.
