TIMES.—The war of the " management clauses," which
has raged for six years through every diocess, archdeaconry,
and rural deauery of this kingdom, and whch has led to so
many stormy meetings, bulky pamphlets, fiery protests, and
moody secessions, has been revived by the insertion of one
little word in the celebrated documents known under the above
name. The "management clauses," as many of our readers
are aware, are certain alternative schemes for the management
of those Church of England schools towards the foundation
of which assistance is given from the annual Parlia-
mentary grant. As that assistance is given at the expense
fhte theschool,
schools
so
of the people at large, and by the vote of a mixed
secure
forsla-
Legisla-
ture, care has been taken, very wisely as we think,o
the laity their just share in the managementot
so assisted. Of course, the ordinary conduct
of
long as there is no disagreement, has
been left unreservedly
of dispute, in the hands of the clergyman.
In thecase •
by these clauses that any how-
ever, between the managers appointedi by the trust, it has
heed provided
dif-
ferences of a purely religious nature should be
referred to the Bishop, but that differences of
any other kind should be referred to a species of arbitration
between the Church and the State. We are not aware whe-
ther this arbitration,
Bishop in the case of religious differences, has been ex-
or whether, indeed, the appeal to the
ns ance, put in
force. The controversy has been one of " prin-
tensively, or, indeed, in one single it
ciple," and pamphlet after pamphlet has been dis-
charged, on the supposition that the independence and
very existence of the Church were involved in the claim
of exclusively clerical management. Some zealots have
gone so far as to forswear all management clauses what-
ever, and to insist that the Church is entitled to its
share of the Parliamentary grant without any other condi-
tion on its part except what they are pleased to describe as
its regular organization—viz., the pastor to lead and the flock
to follow. The ruling members of the National School So-
ciety have, however, protested as much against this excess
of clerical pretension as they have against what they felt to
be the excessive demands of the State; and among reason-
able Churchmen the only misgiving felt has been, that in
the exclusion of " moral differences" from the subjects of
the episcopal appeal there might be hid some indefinite
of clerical responsibilityo
danger to the authority of the Church, and
that the word "religious" expressed rather to
