We are reminded that the late archbishop, in his primary charge, bore testimony to the literary and administrative abilities of his pre decessor in very strong terms of praise. Compa risons are odious. Still it is well known that Archbishop Sumner had not the good fortune of Archbishop Longley, who seems to have won the affection and esteem of all. The daily papers have chosen the first days of the Church's mourning to bully her. All sorts of mysterious threats, warnings, and prophecies are freely given, and they speak as if the very existence of the Church depended upon Mr. Disraeli's action in filling up the vacant primacy.

Lord Ebuiy agrees with the Rev. Hemming Parr that the three offices of the Church should not be huddled tog,cther. He cannot find any way of pre venting this without the assistance of legislation. He refers to the commission at present sitting, to which the consideration of the disputa' rubrics has been referred, cad he would have the terms of the commission so enlarged as to allow all the rubrics to be considered and reported on by it. Then should follow the ne„2essary legislation. The unwary might suppose from this that an Act of Par liament is really neceF:sary to enable clergymen to do that which hundreds of them now do—separate the services. Beading Lord Ebur'y's letter in the Tin:cs, one sees much more than this. There is a sentcnce about " the alteration of a few words in the Prayer book," and there is nothing his lordship would enjoy more than_ tinkering the Liturgy to suit his own views. He finishes by saying :" I should much have desired to touch upon one or two other topics closely allied with this, and of deep interest to the welfare of our Church; but I have already trespassed at con siderable length, and must conclude in hopes, possibly, of having another opportunity of adverting to these subjects." Lord Lbury, on " things in general," will be amusing, if not instructive. ROYAL MUSIC HALL, HOLBORN.

In it the preacher said that Protestantism was on its death bed, and that people now find out that to be member of the Catholic Church is a safer thing than to sit in high places where Protestantism is. He said : "The ear of God's mercy is closed to Protestantism. Over the fall of such a system who can weep ? It is fast falling, and by God's favour soon will be at an end." What the rev. preacher meant is not exactly dear, especially as the vicar of St. Paul's, the church in which he preaches, has lately come out as a decided Protestant, protesting most strongly against the practices of the clergy at St. James's and St. Michael's. The Rev. W. Curling, of St. Saviour's, says that he and his party are the real original Church of England, and that some of his ritualist neighbours are worthless imitators. He writes to tell Mr. Spurgeon so, but the latter won't allow it. Mr. Spurgeon says that he identifies the Ritualists with the Church as much as the Evan gelicals, but that he looks upon them both as Dissenters who have missed their way, and that if the Evangelicals came out, the whole corrupt thing would come to the ground. Mr. Curling replies that he won't desert his Church and leave hei in the hands of the Ritualists. Mr. Curling is quite welcome to a post in the Church as her defender, buf it is rather too bad that he should have charge of one of the largest and most beautiful metropolitan churches.

A correspondent of the Standard makei some interesting calculations, which we present tc our readers on his authority. He was led to do sc by a statement of Mr. Gladstone, that while a clergyman in the Church of England has £2OO a year for looking after (300 people, in Ireland he has £3OO a year for looking after 360. He reduces by calculations and deductions the £3OO of the Irish clergy to £2OO, and says that for that money they have to care for 350 souls living within an acreage of 12,741. In England, for the same money, there is a population of 600 living within an area of 2,133 acres.

GEORGE WOOD, Secretary. The statistics' which nave been published in several newspapers touching the probable results of the general election ought to be received with the utmost caution. No one can doubt that Mr. Glad. stone will have a majority, but the expectations of many journalists that he will have over 400 sup porters must be taken CUM gr ano sails. For in stance, two respectable Irish j ournals, who represent both parties, have fallen into a most absurd error. They state that 299 seats are uncontested.by Con servatives, and in the next sentence they assure their readers that 236 Liberals are sure of election, Who will fill the remaining sixty-three seats is not stated. But the fact is, that there are but 191 seats uncontested by the Conservatives • per contra, there are 106 seats uncontested by the f.iberals; therefore the Liberals have a majority of 85 before even the polling commences. The hopes of the Conservatives will doubtless be in the divided state of the Liberal party; as witness the metropolitan elections. In 1865 not a single Conservative was returned in the metro politan boroughs. Now, through the perverse ness of several ambitious nobodies, the Liberals are in danger of losing one seat. in Lambeth, Finsbury, the Tower Hamlets, Hackney, and Marylebone. ;Thus there are five seats, which the Liberals have always counted upon as safe, jeopardised by such men as Littler, Homer, and a host of others, whose names have never been heard of outside the borough; Instead of the Liberal party adopting the motto of their City friends : to 16 Unite and Conquer," they are playing into the hands of their opponents, who have hoisted the maxim " Divide and Conquer." CARE. We should have thought that Mr. Gladstone, who has been the victim of so much misrepresentation and misquotation, would be the last man to be guilty of it himself. Yet he is reported to have said that Archbishop Whately considered " the establishment of a Protestant Church in Ireland should be viewed, though no burden, yet as a grievance—as being an insult." The Archbishop said nothing of the kind. He said such an opinion was held by certain Roman Catholics. Mistakes in such matters are unfair to the public, who generally t a k e suc h thi ngs f or gran t e d, and especially unfair to a dead man. MR. MILNER GIBSON ON THE EXPENDITURE. The Liberal candidates evidently feel that their strong point is the expenditure. The Conservatives evidently look upon . it as their weak one . Th ey may argue about the Irish Church ; that is a question of principle. But there is something more tangible in " the three millions" which they cannot get over. True, they may give item per item how "the three millions " were expended. But there the " three mil lions" remain. Their opponents declare most positively that they would not have spent it. So the wise in their generation fight shy of the question, simply repeat ing the " efficiency" argument of the Premier, and " passing to the next subject." Mr. Milner Gibson will not allow the country to lose sight of it, how ever. In his speech at Ashton-under-Lyne, on Thursday, he intimated the direction in which he thought some very important reductions might be made. "He thought nothing effective could be done in relation to a real economy in the national expen diture unless we were prepared to encounter the ques tion of the great magnitude of our military and naval armaments. Ho was not exactly a Quaker ; he knew, as the world was now constituted, we had not arrived at the period when we could trust to the forbearance of everybody, and leave the interest of the country undefended; but there was a limit that ought to be observed in times of peace. He believed, not only in England, but throughout Europe, the opinion was gaining ground that the enormous military and naval armaments maintained were unnecessary ; that they were oppressive and ought to be diminished."

If it be unadvisable that Parliament should con tain too many millionaires, it surely is requisite that ita members should have some means, or be supported entirely by their constituents. A contemporary gives currency to a report that a self-constituted working man's candidate appeals to Liberal members of Parliament and strangers for subscriptions to enable him to maintain the position he has assumed. There could be nothing more inimical to a man's independence than this, and nothing would more lower the dignity of the hitherto valued honour of representing the people. From the recent tone of political controversy and legislation, it would almost appear that the being in whom centre all imperial interests is the " working man." We have made an idol of him, petted, flat tered, humoured, and appeased him. The halo of glory which at present surrounds him will be dis pelled should a specimen appear in Parliament beg ging his bread. EDUCATION, The opinions of our public men as regards educa tion are rapidly advancing. It took a long time to teach them that the State had any responsibility in the matter. But they have been " educated by events." Only very recently Mr. Baines retracted his expression as to " parental responsibility," as the phrase was, and boldly declared that the State was mterested in and should provide for the education of her children. Mr. Miall, too, is " marching on." Not very long ago he opposed very strenuously the suggestion that some of the schools of Con gregationalists should receive grants from the Government. At Bradford the other day, following Mr. Forster, he said : " I confess that, after the question had been settled that political power should reside in the great majority of the people of this country, my main objection to what is called State education ceased. I have no objection to the people organising themselves under the law for the promo tion of education. I have no objection, if they should prefer it, that they should pay for the education of their children through a rating system rather than by a system of payment for education ; and under these cir cumstances I accept and I think I ain entitled to accept, what my friend Mr. Forster has said on my behalf, that if you return me to the House of Commons, so far from having been disqualified on account of the opinions I held upon the subject—opinions to which I attach great importance—from legislating upon the question now, I am rather better qualified, inasmuch as I have studied the dangers on the one si d e, and A MORNING and 'EVENING DRAUGHT. have been compelled by events to reco g nise the LAIiPLOUGR'S PYRETIC SALINE i s most a g r ee a ble es on the other." and efficacious, preventing and curing fevers, skin complaints, advantag and inflammation.

SIR RICHARD MAY NI: If the Chief Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police be about to resign his office, he is determined that the last days of his administration shall not be without glory. Having dealt with the London dogs, he has now taken children's hoops from them, and some thousands of these are now deposited at the police stations. It is expected that the turn of the perambulators will come next. The energetic veteran has made a vigorous onslaught upon the night-houses of the West-end of London, and now, to relieve the monotony of busi ness and the cares of office, he spends his evenings at places of public entertainment. If he wish to see things as they are, and not as they are put before him, he must not announce his visits beforehand. He went to the Alhambra, in Leicester square, the other night, and the management having received an intimation of his coming, were delighted to see him, and received him most cordially. He might with advantage finish up his evenings by a stroll through certain well-frequented thoroughfares, and then, perhaps, he would see more than his subordi nates care to tell him. LORD WESTBURY AND THE SCOTCH LANDLORDS. Of all the judicial members of the House of Peers, no one has such a sense of his own position as Lord Westbury. There is no one such a stickler for etiquette, and no one readier to take offence in the matter of precedence. This has been shewn repeatedly in the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. He feels the superiority—which cannot be denied him—to many of his brethren. Hitherto, however, he has managed by a judicious silence to keep from any unplea santness. At last, however, he has boiled over at a slight which was really uncalled for. The Scotch courts have long been recognised as wanting a thorough and " sweeping " reform. Amongst the law reformers of to-day Lord Westbury stands very high. In fact, a commission without him just now would be an anomaly. But instead of putting Lord Westbury at the head of the com mission, it was decided that Lord Colonsay should preside over it. By a bad arrange ment, Lord Westbury did not receive the request to cede precedence until the matter was , arranged. He, as soon as he heard it, withdrew his name. The result is, we have a thoroughly respect able commission, from which law reformers are " conspicuous by their absence." The report which they will issue, no doubt, may contain a great deal of information, but as to suggested reforms it is likely to be " weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable." THE DOULTON TRIAL AT BRUSSELS. The result of the Doulton trial at Brussels must be eminently unsatisfactory to the defendant in the case. The court finds him guilty of charges of which they cannot take cognisance. The allegation was that one foreigner had deceived another foreigner in a foreign country. It could not, therefore, be dealt with in Belgium. But there are one or two things about the whole trial which has not the best appearance. First, it looks very much as if the press were bribed. L'lndlpendance Beige and L'Etoile Beige were each, it was stated, employed to write the affair up. That does not say a great deal for the independence of the Independance. That paper denies that the interest was bought, but it is admitted that money passed. The writer declares that it was given to him in his private capacity Friar Tuck changed his dress, and confessed to himself. The editor of the Independance changes his " capacity." Mr. Doulton writes to the papers explaining his part in the matter. But there is still something wanting. He entered into a con tract on behalf of a company not yet formed, in which the figure made to appear was £ZOB,OOO, while the real cost was £lOO,OOO less. Certainly, Mr. Doulton might have explained all this to his nego tiators. It does not look well, and no reason given for its being done. TUE END OF POWELL. One of the saddest tales of modern times is now c a l t os th cd e . in L qu o es nd t o o n n h th as e been body o f shocked Louisab Th oma s, and anxiously awaited news of Powell, the surgeon , who had absconded, threatening in the sl) posed revelations tob e a letter to a friend that he would poison himself. A man has thrown himself from the top of a cutting near Willesden, in front of a passing train. The body is supposed to be that of Powell. If the man meant to carry out his threat and finish the awful affair by suicide, we, can only hope that the body will be speedily identiy fled, and that all but the medical profession may forget the story for ever,
