We quote from the Gazette du Midi, July 25th (Cure No. 18,413):—"Rome, July 21st, 1866.—The health of the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal. It has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly."

V-14 STEPHEN GLOVER.—" This is the title of a new na- tional song, composed by Mr. Glover in one of his happiest moods. The melody is simple and unpretending, as a song that is to be national should be ; but it also bears the unmistakeable stamp of the hand of a cultivated musician. It is certain to become popular, and will probably rival ' God Bless the Prince of Wales' in public favour. It is capitally arranged by the composer as a pianoforte piece, and in this form will find many admirers, the theme being pleasantly varied, and suited io players of moderate capabilities."

GREAT LUXEMBOURG. The report of the directors states that the gross receipts on the main line for the half year ending the 30th June last amounted to £151,473 against £132,738 in the first half of 1867, and £147,884 in the same half of 1866 ; the net earnings being £77,269 against £58,300 and £66,436 respectively. 'File gross receipts of the past half year exceeded those of the corresponding half of 1867 by £18,735, and of the same half of 1865 by £3,589. The in crease was almost entirely owing to the conveyance of a large quantity of heavy merchandise, such as iron, wood, lime, &c.: the quantity carried during the first half of 1867 was 559,382 tons, and during the first half of the present year 830,137 tons. This'augmentation of traffic was all the more satis factory that trade in Belgium, especially the iron trade, was still far from prosperous ; and a better state of trade would add.sensibly to the revenue of the railway. The working expenses in the past half year amounted to £74,204, or 48.9 per cent. of the receipts, against £74,437 or 56 per cent., in the corresponding half of 1867. Those figures showed that, notwithstanding the increase in the gross re ceipts of £18,735, there had not been any increase in the working expenses; this was ascribed princi pally to the diminution in the cost of fuel, to the exercise of general economy, and to the facilities arising from the laying down along a portion of the railway of the second line of rails. The number of miles run by the trains during the past half year amounted to 836,260, being 19,536 more than for the same period of 1867. The cost per train mile had been ur.der 101, showing a consi derable reduction on former half-years. The rolling stock and permanent way had betn maintained in good repair; 81 miles of the latter had been relaid. The second line of rails had been laid and was now in use between Poix and Longlier. 'rue works be tween Longlier and Lavaux would be completed be- fore the end - of theyear. There would then be a con tinuous length of double way in this part of the line of about 20 miles, which would be of great service in promoting economy, regularity, and freedom from risk in the working of the railway. The revenue accoant had been debited with the whole amount of interest due during the half-year. The gross re uipts of the Ourthe line during the past ha'f-year amounted to £14,661, being only £648 in ex -053 of the gross receipts for the same half of 1867, which amounted to £14,013, whit,: the expenses exceeded tbis sum by £1,186. For the first half of 1868 the proportion of expenses to the re ceipts was 84 per cent., leaving a profit on the working of £2,335. The working of the part of the William Luxembourg line between the Belgian and Prussian frontiers had yielded a profit to the com pany of £l,lBO. he net earnings of the canal amounted to £415. After deducting £62,110 for interest and reimbursement of obligations, and £5,500 for dividend on the preference shares, there remained a balance of £20,129. The directors proposed to pay a dividend of 3s. 6d. per share, to apply £1,049 towards the repayment of the sum advanced by the Belgian Government as guaran tee of interest on the railway from Namur to Arlon, leaving a balance of £1,580 to the credit of the current half-year. WORCESTER, BROMYARD, AND LEOMINSTER. The report of the directors states that the Great Western Board, after some delay, gave their per mission to issue £40,000 debenture bonds or stock to pay off the company's liabilities, and to com plete the line to Suckley-road, provided that some slight modifications were made in the working agreement. The directors were therefore in hopes that the several creditors who had obtained judg ments against the company, or who were suing the company, would have come to terms of ar rangement proposed by the directors and partially accepted by them, but, unfortunately, excutions were issued, and the property of the company seized and sold. Writs of eligit were also issued, and the Sheriffs of Worcestershire and Hereford shire had delivered over the lands purchased by the company for the purpose of their railway to one of their creditors. The effect of those proceedings has been to delay, if not entirely to prevent, the resuscitation of the undertaking, and the only chance now left would be for the creditors to come to an arrangement among themselves and to join the board in raising funds to complete the line to Suckley-road. If this was done it was believed that all the creditors might eventually be paid in full, with interest. DUTCH RHENISH.

TEE ELECTION.—It will interest our readers to kcow that Mr. Bright is expected to visit Birmingham in about three weeks from this time for the - purpose of addressing the electors. The hon. gentleman will stay here for several days, and will, during that time, probably attend meetings in more than one part of the town. These arrangements, however, are not yet settled. —Birm in yhatn Post. BP.EAKDOWN OF A SALOON STEA3IER. —On Tuesday the Victor and Albert saloon steam packet was steering down the river on her way to Ramsgate when the machinery became out of order. There were about 200 passengers on board, and the vessel was so disabled that it was necessary to land them and their luggage at Blackwall. They returned by train to the Ludgate sta tion. The excitnnent was very great, but so far as is known no person was injured. DESTRUCTION OF A VILLAGE BY FIRE.—A sad calamity has just occurred in the upper part of the Rhone Valley, 'the entire village and church of Oborgestelen (with the exception of a single house at either end of the village) having been entirely burnt down. Fire?, Alniighty God, a national provision for the know ledge of his will, and the worship of his name, was held to to its truest wisdom and its fist duty. This is so nolonger ; the great discovery and maxim of modern states men mom and more plain.ly avowed is this, that nations as nations have no God, that for them there is neither Divine ruler nor a Divine Judge, nor yet a Divine Saiviour ; that religion is the affair of the individual and the indi vidual alone, with which the has no concein ; that the Church, like any other club or corporation of individuals, is to bo protected Ly the State „Life peaceable, and to La jealously and stern]; repressed by the State the instant it threatens to be troublesome. But tbo idea. that Church and State are loth powers ordained of God, both parts of His great kingdom on until, both hav;ng their only reason for existence and authority in their relation to Him and their relations to each other, which therefore neither may wilfully break - vithent great peril and great sin, this is scouted as the merest folly. lam not asking now whether this be true or false; lum not asking whether this ideal of a crecdless, prayerless, and Godless state be the great discovery or the great heresy of our ago. Tans only pointing out . _ to yc u that men aro largely discussing this possible divorce of Church and State, while others doubt whether the Church, as it ought to be, can continue her connection with the State as they will it to be, and Churchmen aro beginning to question— reluctantly beginning to question, whether the Church can lortgcontinue its alliance with the State, as they fear•it will be, when they aro begin ning to ask how long the unbelieving husband may be ennoti fied by the believing wife,. and at what point of tyranny, or faithlessness, or cruelty the wife may be compelled, with grieved and saddened heart not to seek for but to accept a lower position than that which God designed for her." In his inaugural address the Archbishop of Dublin said: " The Church Congress, as such, is of no party in politico. In regard of all those questions which divide Churchmen, no less than others, ;t holds itself absolutely neutral. Its members, indeed, do not abdicate or suspend their rights for an instant to the fullest and freest expression of their own convictions, with only such restraints on their manner of so doing as a just consideration for the feelings of others, must evor impose upon Christian men ; but the Congress itself, in its corporate capacity, altogether refuses to throw its weight into this scale or the other. This being so, we refuse to interpret your grand gathering round us to-day as any expression of opinion in regard of matters which must be uppermost in the minds of many amongst us. TLis great assembly has as little right to be regarded as a demonstration in favour of the maintenance of our Establishment as a demonstration against it. But in another rei•pect we have the right to regard, and we do regard, the presence among us of so many distinguished members of the English Church as an expression of their artiest sympathy with that spiritual body, that Irish Church, Catholic and Reformed, which was a Church before Establishments were thought of, al d which will b; even if these should pass utterly away, and be as the things which have never been. We do regard your presence here as the ex pression of your desire that the two churches should con tinue one, one in doctrine, one in discipline, keeping the unity of the spirit in the bond of faith. But the Church Congresz, as it is of no party in politics, ifs litee is it of any in theology. There is one thing which it will not admit, and that is any conscious infidelity to that Church. whose dutiful children we all alike vouch ourselves to be. Ilere its toleration ends. Nothing is more alien to the spirit of a Church Congress - nothing would more surely defeat the objects which it has in view, nothing would in volve it presently in more inevitable ruin—than any un worthy attempts to make capital out of it for any particular section of the Church; to give exclusive prominence to any one line of theological thought, to afford to some ample opportunities of uttering their opinions which wore with held or scantily doled out to others." The first subject on the paper was "Our Religious Societies." Mr. Thomas Turner read a paper, in which he recommended the establishment of a National Church Assembly as the only means of in creasing the efficiency of religious societies. The Attorney- General for Ireland advocated the adoption of the principle of centralisation as the true principle of economical ad ministration. He illustrated the argument by reference to the case of the Missionary Society and the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. He deprecated the establishment of smaller societies * which ought to be incorporated with either of them. He also advocated combined and harmonious co-operation between the clerical and lay elements of the Church. He was followed by the Rev. C. H. Rice, who strongly objected to the multiplication of societies, the effect of which he said must be to bring inefficient men forward and so mar the success of others. -He referred to the discussions and the rellec- Cons which were cast upon the societies by their rivals, to show how the true work of the societies _was impeded by noisy people who were ready to speak on all occasions. Their expenditure, he said, was excessive. After a careful examination of societies, he found that the Church Pastoral Aid Society had the smallest working expenses; that was 7 4'5 per cent. The Church Missionary Society and the Society for the Propogation of the Gospel expended between 12 and 13 per cent. for the same purpose. The question of expenses came under four heads, viz., office, deputation, canvassing, and printing. He suggested that the expenses of canvassing should be reduced, that clergymen should act as deputations to their own congregations, and that the reports should be abbreviated. Mr. Gorst, M. P., thought it was not necessary to have a voluntary association to do what was really the work of the Church, and he blamed the Church for allowing them to do her work. There was waste, from London to the furthest point their missionaries worked. He con tended that it was their duty to place themselves in such a position that if the framework of the national Church were taken away they would be in possession of an instrument whereby they would be enabled to perform the work for which their Church existed. An allusion to the rivalry of the Propagation Society and the Church Missionary Society, and an insinuation that the latter was not as " catholic " as the former, brought out an expression of divided opinion from the meeting, and called up the Very Rev. M. F. Day, the new Dean of Limerick, to defend the Missionary Society, of which he is lion. secretary. "The question has been put," said he, 'ls the Church Missionary Society as catholic as the Church her self ?' I answer, without any hesitation, my lord, that it is. (Applause.) But I desire at the same time to make a distinction which is very important. It is as catholic as the doctrines of -our Church, as defined by herself in our Articles and Prayer-book. It is not catholic as is defined by the opinions of members of our Church or professed members of our Church. And, my lord, it is because that there are such a number of persons in the Church holding opinions which the Church does not war rant. The Church Missionary Society, and, I believe. other religious societies, found themselves unable to cast themselves upon the ordinary machinery of the Church, or to accept as a genuine member of the Church, and as one fitted to share in the government of the society, every person who bears the name of Churchman." Some of the meeting loudly applauded and others as loudly hissed the very rev. dean. The Arch deacon of Taunton restored good humour by observing that after hearing Mr. Turner's paper he began almost to be afraid that since he left London the Church had been disestablished, although he had not read of it. He never before heard so much said against the societies, and he did not think they were so much in fault. It was owing to the fact that the spiritual assemblies of the Church of England- had lain so long in abeyance that it had been thought necessary to form voluntary societies. He advocated a system of central organi sation. Mr. Tristram, as secretary to the Church Mis sionary Society, repudiated the charge that it had used its means extravagantly. A paper was then read by the Rev. Dr. Kay, " On the hindrances at home and abroad to the progress of missions, and how they may be overcome." The Rev. F. Meyrick attributed ' the failure of missions to want of zeal, and recommenaed better organisation of the societies. The Rev. Dean M'Neile, of Ripon, whose presence evoked an enthusiastic demonstration, reviewed the home hindrances, such as preoccupation in worldly business and pleasure, and uncertainty as to what the message was that was to be delivered. Pursuing this line of observation, the rev. gentleman made some remarks which were understood to be disparaging of the clerical office, and there were loud expressions of dissent from a portion of the audience, amid which he resumed his seat. The Rev. B. Bowleg continued the discussion, and denied that the Church missions had proved a failure. At the evening meeting, the Rev. R. Gregory react a paper on Education and the Church, reviewing the different systems which are in use. He condemned the Irish one, while he commended the one which prevails in England. Archdeacon Denison, in a charac teristic speech, expressed his hostility to the conscience clause in the English system, and wound up with the observation that the man who was most fitted to carry on the defence of the Church had become her fore most enemy. The Dean of Limerick put forward in earnest terms the conscientious objections which prevented Irish Protestants who supported the Church Education Society from accepting aid from the National Board. The Rev. James Byrne defended the National Board. system. The venerable Bishop of Cashel, who with diffi culty came forward, and received a cordial welcome, took the same view as the Dean o f Limerick. Mr. Powell, M.P., advocated religious teaching in the slay schools. The Rev. G. Webster, (of Cork, supported the national system, pointing out the benefits derived from it in 1 is own parish, and the freedom which he enjoyed in giving religious instruction. The Bishop of Oxford replied to Mr. Byrne with a felicity and power, which won the admiration of the meeting, and esta blished him in the favourable opinion of many who had regarded him with the strongest prejudice. The Dean of Waterford, amid strong manifestations of dissent, took an opposite line of argument in support of the national system. His Grace the Archbishop deprecated the repetition of such demonstrations. Lord Oraumore observed that there were 2,400 schools, attended by 24,000 Protestant children, scattered all over the country, an average of ten to each school, and if the national system did not exist, bow could it be possible for those Protestant children to get education ? They would be altogether excluded from the benefit of education. "The reason," said be, "they want us to abstain from religious teaching is because they think we shall get too much truth into them. I have ventured always to say to my own clergy this : 'So far as the parental trust commits R child to you, take it, and teach it all you can, but do not agre e to take a child from a government that Would bind you, a Christian teacher , to withhold a n y Christian ttacl4l2g."l .. _ MISBRAInDoN's FORTHCOMING , icOVtL.
