CHLacH PArrOnAli AID Smarm—The annual
to of this society woe bald yesterday, atßt. James'.-ball;
.the Earl of Shaftesbury presided, and on the platform were
the Bishop of Ripon, the Dean of Carlisle, and a numerous
body of lay and clerical supporters of the society. The body of
the ball we. well filled. After a prayer by the Rev. E. J.
Speck, the Rev. Charles Clayton read an abateact of the
report,. which gave an interesting account of the society's
daring the year. The committee expressed regret
=are duty of supporting the agencies employed to
christianise the population should be so imperfectly appre-
ciated by many peewee permed of property. The gross
receipts for the year had been 46,3511. 2s. lld. The expen-
diture had bees 43,4291. The amount realised by the special
fund bad bees little more than 3,0001. The society stood
pleqed to the amount of 50,0004, and it wee hoped that
the fends which would be forthcoming would enable it to
carry on its operations in an extended sphere. During the
year 39 grants had lapsed or become none, 59 new grants
had been made, which wee 20 more to provide for than had
been the case is the previous year. The total greats of the
year had been 676, of which 403 had bona in respect of
clergymen, end 168 fay lay agents. On the motion of the
Nan of Quills, seconded by Canon Savoie, et Nmisaton
the report was adopted. Several addresses were afterward;
delivered, and the proceedings terminated with a prayer.
THE CLERGY AND THE DilroacE Acv. —A peti-
tion will be presented to the Mouse of Commons in the
course of a few weeks, signed by a large number of persona,
chiefly elarical, is reference to the Amendment (Divorce)
Aot of 1:360, and which clfalle on the 31st of July next.
The petition Faye the legislature to repeal such portions of
the Divorce Act as allow of a dissolution of marriage and
the reesiurrism of divorced persons, basing this prayer on
the ground that these portions of the act are opposed to the
primeval law of marriage recorded io Genesis, 2nd chapter,
23rd verse, and republished in various portions of the New
-Testament. The petition goes on to pray that should the
house not deem the facts cited sufficient to justify them in
fully repealing thine portions of the existing statutes that
allow of the dissolution of marriage, yet that at least it
would repeal so much of thou statutes as permit the guilty
parties to be =ivied again, even to the very persons with
whom they have sinned, inasmuch ea it is a fundamental
principle that so one should be allowed to take adeaMegis
of his owe wrongdoing.
