REJECTION OF THE CHURCH-RATE
ABOLITION BILL.

The Daily News observes that church-rates are
supported now by nothing but the obstructive
power of the House of Lords.

- The Times asserts that people have for a time
ceased to take the old interest in the moral
progress and civil and religious liberty. The
time for these subjects will no doubt come again
when France is quiet and Germany re-assured,
and our fortifications at once perfect and unne-
cessary. Let us then go on with what both
Whigs and Tories join in, improve our means of
defence, amend our laws, and carry out all that
does not involve party dissension. By the time this
has been done, the church.rate question will be fit
for solution, and the pear that cannot be plucked
violently from the tree, will drop ripe and mellow
in its own good time.
