GREAT LUXEMBOURG. I-- The report of the directors states that the grass receipts oil' the main line fOrthe 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. The gross receipts of the past half year exceeded those of the corresponding half Qf 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 under 10d., showing a consi derable reduction on former half-years. The rolling stock and permanent way had been maintained in good repair ; 8i miles of the latter had been relaid. The second line of rails had been laid and was now in use between Poix and Longlier. The 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 account had been debited with the whole amount of interest due during the half-year. The gross re ceipts of the Ourthe line during the past half-year amounted to £14,661, being only £648 in ex cess of the gross receipts for the same half of 1867, which amounted to £14,013, while the expenses exceeded this 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. The 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 balahce of £1,580 to the credit of the current half-year. WORCESTER, EROMYARD, 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. The receipts for the fortnight ending September 15 amounted to £15,522, and for the corresponding period of last year to £13,683, showing an increase of £1,839. The receipts since the commencement of the present book year, on May 1, including the above, amounted to £127,684, showing an increase as compared with the corresponding period of last year of £1,949. The working expenses for the fort night was £5,913, or 38,09 per cent. of the receipts, and for the corresponding period of last year to £5,030, or 38.12 per cent., showing an increase of £BB2. The working expenses from the Ist May to the 15th inst. amounted to £52,017, or 40.74 per cent. of the receipts, and for the corresponding period of last year to 41.07 per cent. NORTHERN OF FRANCE. The traffic receipts on this company's new and old lines amounted, for the week ending the Bth inst., to £78,860, and for the corresponding week in 1867 to £82,593, showing a decrease of £3,733. TILE BIRMINGHAM ELECTION.—It will interest our readers to know that Mr. Bright is expected to visit Ilirniingham in about three weeks from this time for the purpose of addressing the electors. The hon. gentleman will stay hero 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 s.Atled. —Birmingham Post. BREAKDOWN OF A SALOON STEAMER. —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 Ludgato sta tion. The excitement was very great, but so far as is known no person was injured. DESTRUCTION OF A VILLAGE BY FLRE.—A sad calamity has just occurred in the upper part of the Rhone Valley, the entire village and church of Obergestelen (with the exception of a single house at either end of the village) haying been entirely burnt clown. • Z 2 C___: - Trt7lCH CONGRESS. The greatest interest centres in the proceedings of the Church Congress now assembled at Dublin. In the Con-: gressional sermon preached by the Rev. Dr. Magee, Dean 4 Cork, the following reference was made to the pre sent crisis There was a time" (said the - preacher) " when for a Christian nation a national recognition of Almighty God, a national provision for the know-' ledge of his will, and the worship of his name, was held to be its truest wisdom and its first duty. This is iso‘ no longer ; the great discovery and maxim of modern fitabeii men more and more plainly 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 Saviour; • • that religion is the affair of the individual and the indi vidual alone, with which the State has no concern ; that the Church, like any other club or corporation of individuals, is to be protected by the State while peaceable, and to be jealously and sternly repressed by the State the instant it threatens to be troublesome. But the idea that Church and State are loth powers ordained of God, both parts of His great kingdom on earth, both having their only reason fez existence and authority in their relation to Him and their relations to each other, which therefore neither may wilfully break without great peril and great sin, this is scouted kas the merest folly. lam not asking now whether this be true or false ; lam not asking whether this ideal of a crecdless, prayerless, and Godless state be the great discovery or the great heresy of our age. lam only pointing out to ye u that men are 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 are beginning to question —reluctantly beginning to question, whether the Church can long continue its alliance with the State, as they fear it will be, when they are begin ning to ask how long the unbelieving husband may be sancti 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 n 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 politics. In regard of all those questions which divide Churchmen, no less than others, it holds itself absolutely neutral— , - i - rigmembers, indeed; do not abdicate or suspend theihtit 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 ethane must ever 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 iu regard of matters which must be uppermost in the minds of many amongst us. This 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 respect 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 heartiest sympathy with that spiritual body, that Irish Church, Catholic and Reformed, which was a Church before Establishments were thought of, and which will be, 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 Congress, as it is of no party in politics, as little 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. Here 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 were 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 succee4 of others. He referred to the discussions and the reflec tions 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 beads, 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 hon. 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-bo ok. 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. Meyri ck attributed the failure of missions to want of zeal, and recommended 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 lie resumed his seat. The Rev. H. Howley continued the discussion, and denied that the Church missions had proved a failure. At the evening meeting, the Rev. R. Gregory reaa 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 accept ing aid from the National Board. The Rev. James Byrne defended the National Board system. The venerable Bishop of Cashel, who with dial cultycamefo as therward,a pendracen o eiv f ed i a ,im co e r r d ic ia k. cordial we lc ome, Ai _ r. took the same view Powell, M.P. advocated religious teachi n g in the day sc h ools.

Th e h who ha d Dean of Waterford, amid strong manifestations of dissent, took an opposite line of argument in support of tho national system. His Grace the Archbishop deprecated the repetition of such demonstrations. Lord Oranmore 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, how could it be possible for those Protestant children to get education ? They would be altogether excluded from the benefit of education. "The reason," said he, " they want us to abstain from religious teaching is because they think we shall get too much truth into them.
