The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on my system during the last teu years proves its utility ; the loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun dred. Gapes and Roup (the two most fatal diseases which attack game) the birds have been and always are free from. This is attributable to their robust constitution and excellent condition.

The following pastoral letter of Archbishop Man ning was read on Sunday last in all the Catholic churches and chapels in the archdiocese : REVEREND AND DEAR BRETHREN, AND DEAR CHIL. DREN IN JESUS CHRIST,- After the great festival of the ever-blessed Tri nity, in which the presence of our Divine Lord seems to withdraw itself from us into the depths of the eternal glory, the festival of Corpus Christi re calls us to His near and all . but visible presence. He is indeed ascended to the Father, but He is with us still in a mystery of incomprehensible intimacy, sweetness, and power. The blessed Sacrament is the presence of Jesus veiled, but. sensible. He reigns at the right hand of His Father, but He is here. And though our intelligence cannot compre hendilluminated the limits byfaith, canapprehend this mystery, yet our hearts, it ; that is, can lay hold of it, as the poor woman who touched the hem of His garment, and, holding fast by Him, became pervaded by a consciousness of the spiritual life more intuitive than all reasoning and more as suring than all sense. his consciousness of the soul is keener than the eye, and its intuitions are more piercing than sight. The door of the Taber nacle does not hide the Blessed Sacrament from faith, nor th&vcil of the Sacred Species conceal the divine perfections of the Sacred Heart. In the Blessed Sa crament, by a spiritual apprehension, we see the Per son of Jesus, God and Man, His divine perfec tions, Ills human character, and the sanctuary and source of all His grace and love—His Sacred Heart. It was by this revelation of Himself that He inspired a humble and simple daughter of His Immaculate Mother to illuminate the Church of d-od with a special knowledge of His divine and human perfec tions. The profound and beautiful devotion of the Sacred Heart has in it depths which no saint can ever sound ; and Yet it is easily and promptly learned by children. There can be no more fitting subject for our thoughts to-day than the intention of the Confraternity of the Sacred Heart. We will, there fore, draw out simply a n d practically some of the lessons and benefits which may be derived from it. Our earnest desire is that this Confraternity be erected in every church in the diocese ; and that the faithful be enrolled in it at as early an age as they are able intelligently to practise its light obli gations, and to understand its beauty and its sweet ness. The Confraternity of the Sacred Heart was founded first of all to offer to our Divine Lord a perpetual and special worship of love and adoration. The whole visible Church, indeed, in all the world, by a perpetual change and succession of ever-recur ring acts of divine and public service at the altar, worships God without ceasing. A multitude that no man can number in every land is perpetually in secret prayer before Him. These two great offices of the Church, it is true, are always in activity. But the Confraternity of the Sacred Heart is something distinct from these. It is the union of a multitude of souls, who, by a special intention, consecrate themselves to make reparation to our divine Redeemer for the sins and ingratitude of men, and to glorify Him for the dishonour He receives, not only from the world, but from His own disciples. It implies, therefore, on our part, a deliberate desire and choice to unite ourselves with Him, and to identify our joys and sorrows, our cares, intentions, and efforts with His own. A second intention, and an immediate conse quence from the first, is to promote in ourselves a deeper consciousness of our personal relation to Him, and of His personal relation to us. And this depends upon the sense of His presence. The more habitually we remember it, the more we shall be conscious of the nearness with which we are bound to Him as our kinsman, brother, and friend. This TT; Our acts, words, thoughts, and intentions t o devotion teaches—us to refer our to live as the disciples who were alway s ar ound Him, and to measure all our life by His unseen judgment, ap proving or reproving our outward actions and our inward hearts. And this sense of His presence is not so much an intellectual as a moral perception. It implies an intelligent appreciation of His cha racter, of His divine perfections, and of the human lineaments, so to speak, of His sacred mind and heart, that is of the minute and personal features by which friends learn to know, to love, and to confide in one another. No language can be found to exceed the intimacy with which our Divine Lord and Shepherd knows each one of us by name and by character, and we also ought to learn by contemplation, meditation, and experience, I the divine and human character of Jesus towards us. It is a cold and mutilated friendship which is all on one side. There must be r4ciprocal know ledge and mutual appreciation before there can be an union of hearts and an identity of will. The reason why we are so cold and distant towards Him is because we know Him so little. Our friend ship like our knowledge is superficial ; and it is superficial because we do not enter deeply enough into the knowledge of the Sacred Heart. But be sides this sense of His presence, and the percep tion of His character, there is also a consciousness of His personal love to us, which springs directly from the knowledge of 1113 divine and human tenderness. We know what it is to con self, we thenceforward know him to b 3 to us. From this springs up a sense of intimacy and mutual contract, and reciprocal interchange of gra titude for love, and obedience for guidance. Our faith, hope, and charity, which terminate hi God, ' , have no need to ascend up into Heaven to bring down Christ from above," as the Apostle Bays, but find their object and their rest in the Sacred Heart ever near to us. Now, a further intention of this devotion is to obtain for those who practite it an interior light to understand the spiritual life and the objects of faith, on which it subsists. You will perceive at once that in the light of the Sacred Heart the mystery of the Incarnation, pro found and infiinite in its beauty and its depth, be comes, so far as we can receive it, luminous and clear. It is no longer a mere exertion of divine wisdom, or power, or grace, but a manifestation of God, a deification and a beatification of man, an union of the Creator and of the creature in the Perscin of the Incarnate Word, which elevates man to the knowledge and love of God, and thereby to eternal life, and to the vision of eternal peace. The Incarnation is the most explicit and emphatic revela tion of love, of condescension, of union with our hearts through the assumption of a heart like our own. The heart of man became the heart of God in Him, that the heart of God might redeem and glorify the heart of man in us. And as the Sacred Heart interprets to us the mystery of the Incarnation, so it does also em phatically unfold the mystery of the Holy Sacra ment. There can be conceived no union with God in this world more intimate, purifying, illuminating, or full of love than the contemplation of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, except only the actual re ceiving of His Presence in Holy Communion : nor any union more personal and permanent than Holy Communion, except only the vision and presence of Jesus in His glory. The mystery of divine power whereby the substance of the bread and wine is changed into the substance of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ is seen in the light of the Sacred Heart to be the condition and the means by which the Sacred Heart itself is imparted to us. In the Holy Mass He offers it to God—in Holy Com munion He gives it to us. The love of Jesus, human and divine, surrounds this mystery of God's power, sanctity and justice, with a light in which its moral beauty and fitness shine luminously upon us. It is the love and sorrow of the Sacred Heart which gives to the Passion of Jesus on Calvary and in Gethsemane its profound and persuasive beauty. It is this perception of His character which gives to His active life a moral sig nificance and perfection, and brings forth the mean ing which underlies all the literal history of the Gospel. They can be understood only by those who, by love and prayer, have the key or interpretation in their own hearts. . There are also many other lights and lessons to be drawn from the Sacred Ileart, but only one more now can be added. It teaches us in what our true perfection consists : not only in acts of external obedience, but in the graces of internal conformity with God. If we would be perfect we must be like Him, and to b.. 3 like Him we must be united to God in knowledge and love. This is the Gospel of eternal life, which is little understood. " If our Gospel be also hid, it is hi 1 to them that are lost ; in whom the God of this • to_ hath blinded the minis of unbelievers, that the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them. . . . For God who commanded the light to shine out of dark ness, bath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Christ Jesus." What is the face of Jesus Christ but the Sacred Heart, the perfections of which radiated from the sacred countenance, not only in the glory of Thabor, but in the wounds and clouds of His passion. " This is the declaration which we have heard from him, and declare unto you : that God is light, and in him there is no darkness. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth. But if we walk in the light as he also is in the light, we have fellowship one-with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleans:3th us from all sin." It is to deceive ourselves, if we are to imagine that we are His disciples, while we are proud, im pure, or selfish. Humility, purity, charity, are the vital perfections of the Sacred Heart. They who are humble, pure, and charitable, are united with Him. They who are not so aro not His, except in word and in name. They may have a name to live, but are dead. And this conformity to Him is both His gift and our duty : it is a grace both infused and acquired. It begins in our regeneration and His indwelling in our hearts. It is advanced and perfected by our fidelity and co-operation ; by acts of faith, hope, charity, contrition, self-denial, self chastisement, by habits of recollection and mental prayer, by Confession which renews our peace with Him, and by Communion which unites and sustains the union of the soul with His presence. No surer help to this life of conformity to Him can be found than the daily practices of this Confra ternity, that is the contemplation and adoration of the Sacred Heart, and the exercise of those works of piety and charity which are dear to it. Of these the first and chief is the salvation of souls; and of these, those who are dearest to Him; the souls of His little ones. It is tor this work that we ask your alms, as usual, year by year, on this festival. The Poor- School Committee, as we have already often told you, is charged with the high and vital work of training the teachers of our schools. The efficiency and morality of our sch)ols depends upon the cha racter of the teachers. The welfare of our poor children is more directly affectel by them than by any except the pastors of the Church. If they be in competent or unworthy the children suffer : and in them the families who will hereafter spring from them. It was a proverbial saying among the Jews that "the world is sustained by the breath of school children," and that, " because the children were neglected, Jerusalem perished." These are pro found truths, which ought to be appreciated a hun dredfold by those who know and love the Sacred Heart of the Incarnate Son of God. These are days in which we dare not relax in trianiug able and Christian teachers. The religious education of this country is threatened, and will certainly before long beassailed. It is only► by its effieiency and by its extension that it can be successfully de fended. We therefore earnestly appeal to you to assist the Poor School Committee, which has de served so well at our hands in the last twenty years, in rendering our Training Schools and its other works adequate to the demands of our education. And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Given at Westminster, and ordered to be read in all churches and chapels of the diocese on the Feast of the Sacred Heart, the third Sunday after Pentecost, 1868, when the annual collection will be made in aid of the funds of the Poor School Committee. ►;i HENRY EDWARD, Archbishop of Weatmiustor. path before reartins alm3st as d-irk as ever, and there is no guarantee th t the nation, may not again pat its foot into it." When W 3 glance at what Lord AUCILAND dii, in the face of the broad facts which ought to have been than a 3 patent to him as they are now to 113, we see how little can be left to the discretion of the ordinary Vicerop, who, gene.: rally being selected from politically successful Peers, practically know nothing of judia or of Asiatic politics. Lord AUCEL tND marched an army into Cabul, not only penetrating through the wildest mountains, inhabited by uncivilized and fanatical tribes, but he crossed an empire containing little less than nine millions of warlike inhabitants, controlled by Itu=Er SING, a despotic Monarch, of .ingalar military genius and political capacity. The Indas, from the Ilimalayah to the sea, then passed through no British territory, The advanced frontier touched on the most southern branch of that river, the Sutlej, and from Ferozepore and Loodianah, at least to Delhi and Meerut, the country was without a road. Thus with a base so ill-formed, with the Punjaub solely trained from open hostility by the intelligence of — One man, the Governor-General hal the temerity to attack a scarcely practicable distri3t, with the Seilths and the great balsa army then in the zenith of their power n his rear. A ruler who could so ill calculate his own position mid scarcely be expected to estimate justly the position and difficulties of his supposed enemy. He who i$ regardless of a base for himself would not attach importance to the want of a base for the military operations of his antagonists. The intention was to check-mate Russia, and for this his advisers counselled the control of Affghanistan. At that time Russia was infinitely further from the British frontier than now, the tribes of the Caucasus were unsubdued, and there was as much danger of the British marching an army to Archangel as of the Russians crossing the Sutlej. Since Lord AUCKLAND'S time Russia has made great progress in Asia, and recent events seem now to indicate the occupation of Samarcand and the complete conquest of Bukhara. But the progress of Russia in no de gree equals that of the British in India within late years, for the tendency there has been to develope resources more than to • extend dominion, and in that development lies real power. It is true that Russia has subdued the tribes of the Caucasus, that she has conquered Bokhara, and fairly penetrated from the unknown north into the circle of Asiatic potentates, that she has fairly established herself on the Oxus, and from Samarcand can exert a potent influence among all the Tartar tribes; but the British have conquered the Salsa army and annexed the Punjaub, carrying their Empire of India to its natural frontier, the mountain barrier that walls it in. Railroads now connect the cities to which scarcely roads led in the days of Lord AUCKLAND. The Indus from the spot where it ceases to be a mere stream flows almost from its source to the sea through British dominion, railroads run along its banks, and fleets of steamers ply on its waters. Commu nication, too, is almost instantaneous with Eng land, and the Overland Route has developed into a great highway. If we compare the Russian pro gress with that of the British —supposing they are destined to meet in Asia as enemies —that of the latter is the more strengthe, , ing and better qualified to in intain a successful struggle. Although science and the skill of the engineer have, and will mate rially ail Russia in her a lvanc, still the diffizal ties placed by nature in her way are so stupendous as to be almost insurmountable. The recagnized chief of the Tartar tribes, with the banner of Islam raised for a crusade against the Feriughees in India, would be a potent enemy, awl might repeat the oft-experienced conquest of Hindostan by the mountaineers of Central Asia. But :can a Russian General ever succed in such a role? We believe it to be impossible, for it is wholly opposed to the principle upon which Russia acts. She cannot maintain a policy in Europe directly at variance with the policy in Asia. She cannot lead a Chris tian rising against 'Moslem supremacy in Turkey, and a Moslem rising against Christian supremacy in India. She cannot at the same time use the Christian to suppress the recoguizel . head of the Moslem faith in Constantinople, and use the Moslem to re-establish the Mahomedan faith at Delhi. She cannot paint the Crescent on one side and the Cross on the other, nor is it possible for the CZAR to attempt so to dissimulate, for as a power Russia must stand as the great upholder of the Greek Church, a sentiment deeply inwrodght in the hearts of her people. This is the safeguard of the British power in India, for there is no denying the fact, if Russia could raise the groan banner, and head a holy war against the Christian, that the British power in India w mid 'be in extreme danger. Taking things, however, as they are, and presum ing that Russia would at thebest hold but the same position in her conquests as the English do in theirs, that is control the country they occupy by military supremacy if they have to fight it out, it would be as a Christian power against a Christian power, the Russian against the British, the natives on each side being influenced and controlled by the strength of character, the military genius, the cou rage, and the wealth of each antagonist. In such a combat, we believe, that England has nothing to fear. Her army abounds with men, as does the na tion, singularly well qualified to rule and direct native tribes. The power of the purse is her's beyond comparison, and her prestige in the regions where the contest only can take place is, and must for many years be, far higher. Unless Russia, as a Christian power, can secure the cordial co-operation of Persia and Affghanistan, which we hold to be impossible, she could never undertake the conquest of India with the most distant prospect of success; and even with that co-operation, a great defeat in the Punjaub would lead to the annihila tion of her army, and throw her back from the con quests already achieved. The British danger and the Russian danger must ever be the same in a na tive uprising behind against their supremacy. But we cannot doubt that the danger to the Russian in this will always be greater than the danger to the British, because along the path to her base are tribes whom no policy can conciliate, whom no law binds, who live by plunder, and whom it is next to impos sible to punish. Therefore they can rise against the Russians with comparative impunity, while in India the leders of such a revolt carry their lives in their hands. No folly could be greater than that of re peating Lord AUCKLAND'S mistake in the attempt to occupy Affghanistan. If Russia ever reaches Herat, England's plan is to throw into Cabul a few selected officers to be incorporated into the ASLEF:WS army with arms and funds. These gentlemen may be safely left to make the most of ►he position, speaking the language, and assuming,- as they will, almost the appearance of Affghans ; but to attempt to hold the passes by a British force is simply to turn against the British the hostility of the in habitants. It is impossible for the Affghan to be taught who his enemy is otherwise than by his eyes, and where his scimitar can reach a stranger that stranger is the man. Lord AUCKLAND'S idea was that the feeling of the people sustained SHAH SHOOJA, and that section, aided by a British force, could maintain the rightful A3IEER oa the throne. The very act, however, of entering the country turned every Affghan into an enemy, And sna SIMOJA'S cause rated then solely , nets. It is clearly the true policy for tl \.. icThoY avail himself of this - feeling. Let the Russian, if be chooses to enter Affghanistan, draw on his head the hostility of : the inhabitants, and use every available means of making that hostility as for midable as possible._ If Russia can force the pas sage, and afterwards be successful in a war in India . - gainst the British, the Muscovite will deserve the sway of Asia, and the chances are that he will be assured as well of the sway of Europe, for he will have shown himself to be the greatest master of mili t iry tactics, the greatest sucmounter of obstacles the world has ever known, and, in a military point of view, he will have earned the right of control wherever he can place his foot. But where the British utterly failed in the face of far fewer difficul ties, the ItuSian is not likely, unleis by a miracle, to succsel ; and until the days of miracles return, we believe E'iglaaa haslittle to fear front Muzcovite ag gression.

What, asks the Times, is to be said of this meeting in the Guildhall ? Nothing, except that it is a monument of the folly of its promoters. It is, of course, easy to say that the meeting was packed. No doubt it was packed. There was a plentiful supply of persons on both sides in capable of understanding the merits of the question at issue, and consistently disinclined to listen to any argu ments from any person who was opposed to the conclusions they were employed to support. Neither Liberal nor Tory has the better of tho comparison. The proof is .. simple. The Lord Mayor was assailed with clamour directly he appeared,_ and not,a word he spoke was „heard beyotd the reporters, although all he endeavoured to say was that, although his own opinions were well known, he hoped a fair hearing would be given to every one, and he .especially bespoke it for Sir John Lubbock, the first speaker. The Liberals in the hall having thus discredited themselves, the Conservatives refused to listen to Sir John Lubbock. It is evident that neither party can afford to throw dirt at the other. Nor could any other result than that which did happen have been expected by reasonable persons. To suppose that an expression of opinion upon a subject on which men are keenly divided can be elicited from a mixed crowd as a sequel to a carefully-considered argument on both sides is absurd. It would be as rational to convene an eourl number, of Irish Protestants and Irish Roman Catholics to concoct a common form of worship. Such a pro. ceeding as this is nowadays wholly out of date. Mr. Goschen confided to fhe reporters that he would rather address a somewhat stormy meeting than a flat assem bly collected by ticket within closed doors ; but the right of meeting, of which we are so justly jealous, is the right of meeting of persons of the same way of thinking. In the United States, to which we may appeal on such a point, scarcely any other form of meeting is known. The comparison of arguments and the comparison of strength can be only made judiciously in t►ie assemblies of representative opinion, in which is vested the ultimate power of directing the policy of a nation. The only good the Times can hope from the meeting is, that it may check the attempt to hold any more of a similar character. Nothing came of it directly. For the immediate purpose for which it was convened it was worthless. It did not even appear which side could outdo the other in clamour, though the comparison would have been futile if it had been possible. In the House of Commons the shouts from the Conservative benches are in- variably more hearty and united than those from the Liberal side, and yet the Conservatives are constantly out voted. At the hustings the balance of tumult is no cri terion of the result of the poll. Those who went to the Guildhall, if there were any so benighted, to discover which way the constituency would go next November, must-have come away as wise as they went. Mr. Gosehen declared that the coming election would chew that the Liberals were in the majority, and we entirely agree with him, but our opinion is formed, as his was, independently of the saturnalia in Guildhall. Apropos to this meeting the Daily News declares that all over England the meetings held on this subject are either limited to supporters of the Establishment, like the one at the Cannon-street Hotel, or are assailed and dis turbed by the noisy ruflianism of the dfitriet, organised to prevent any expression of opinion. Nowhere do the sup porters of the Irish Church dare to ask the free vote of an open meeting. Nowhere do they dare to submit the ques tion to the deliberate judgment of the English people. They know that the reason and conscience of the people are against them ; that in no free gathering of English men could they holm to get a verdict on the evidence. They have no case, and they abuse the counsel ; no argu ment, and they browbeat the jury ; no plea, ar.d they will not hear the verdict, and hope to drown the sentence in clamour. It is a forlorn hope, but we may leave them to cherish it. The Post has a smart attack upon the Ministry. Com mencing with Mr. Disraeli, it deprecates his love of self glorification ; it sets down Lord Abercorn as a mere courtier, but admits that his policy in Ireland has on the whole been good ; Mr. Hardy is a respectable man, who speaks cut his opinions boldly, but acts on the views of Mr. Disraeli. Of Lord Stanley, however, the Post has little good to say. By playing the equivocal part of voting with the highest Tories and coquetting with the Ultra-Radicals, his lordship has got for the moment a sort of general position which has induced all parties to exag gerate his merits and to overlook his deficiencies. It is really too much to parade before us as a statesman of vigour and genius a man who hiLs some qualities of a second-rate kind, but who is singularly deficient in conception, pre cision, and decision. Our Foreign Secretary indeed is laborious, and can master the details of a question, but he is like a general who can get an army together, but does not know when it is in the field what to do with it. No amount of information leads him to a conclusion. In the famous Luxemburg treaty he stood hesitating as to whether he should sign it, until Europe was on the very brink of war, and then nullified his signature by declaring that it pledged him to nothing ; thus renewing the Euro peen agitation, which still continues, and which the recognised union of three great Powers against the ambition of any fourth one would have kept per manently at rest. In the case of the Mermaid, where a British vessel was unaccountably sunk by the guns of a Spanish fortress, in the case of Abyssinia, where a British agent was imprisoned and tortured, his wavering and cynical nature was only roused into action by the strong expression of pubic opinion. In Eastern affairs he certainly deserves the praise of having done nothing where he might have done a great deal of mis chief ; but one cannot help feeling that there still remains in that quarter of the world a brooding spirit of dia. turbance which a more clear and decided course would have put down. The two orders of men most to be dreaded as statesmen are those who are constantly fussing about nothing, and those who are indife.frent as to everything. Lord Stanley is in all things the same. He cannot decide to what party he belongs at home, nor what policy he should adopt abroad. It is absurd to attribute to him the merits of a politital man who has ever done anything. His presiding distinction is his impotence, a harmless peculiarity of which one need not be ashamed, but of which it is ridiculous to boast. The boast, indeed, in the more unwise in this instance, because it is accompanied by a censure. How was it, if Lord Clarendon left affairs in the desperate condition which Mr. Disraeli so graphically paints, that Lord Derby begged him to continue to administer our foreign affairs ? This is a question which still waits for an answer. The Daily Telegraph, in answer to the question " What shall be done unto the man whom the nation delighteth to honour ?" says that the wish of the nation undoubtedly is that Sir Robert Napier—the soldier who has thus shed lustre on our arms— should receive the honour of a peer age ; there can be no question that the Crown will be ready to use its prerogative for that purpose ; nor can we suppose that Sir Robert Napier will decline a high honour thus cordially offered in the name of a grateful country. There are, however, certain difficulties in the way, none of them by any means insuperable, though perhaps needing somewhat delicate treatment. Sir Robert is an Indian officer by service, and his elevation to the peerage would of course recall for the same honour one or two names of public ser vants having already the highest. claims to the esteem of the people and the favour of the Crown. Then there must arise the question of the necessary grant to maintain the dignity of a noble title, becoming as it does part of the historic records of the land. On the other hand, the gains are manifest and im portant. There is no reason why the elevation of Sir Robert Napier to the house of Lords should not be followed by the addition of other illustrious names to the roll of our peerage, and such an accession of talent , and noble services would add to the strength of the hereditary chamber. It is with such new blood that the hereditary order must be fortified, if it is to resist the spirit of the times ; and the peers themsel v es might gladly hail the principle of thus ttuding a reinforced raison d'arf tga •
