THE MALINES CONGRESS.—A correspondent,
writing to the Monde from Malines, gives a des-
cription of the religious portion of the exhibition opened
there in connection with the Congrese. He says :--" Ia
the'rooms, containing articles of ancient goldsmith's work,
we observed the rich reliquary of copper gilt of the 11th
century belonging to the Church of Sainte Croix, at Liege ;
two reliquaries from the church at Blanche, one be ing
of nielloed silver, the other of silver gilt with ena-
mels ; an antique mosaic representing the features of
our Saviour, sent by Pope Sextus IV. to the Prince do
Croy; a reliquary of the 15th century, once belongiue; to
Margaret of York; a chaliance of St Thomas a Becket, be-
longing to the Beguin's Church at Dixrnude ; the reliqvarY
of St. Eloi (14th century), and the key of the Cenfessi,an of
St. Peter, which the Popes need to send to bishops on t heir
installation, belonging to the Church of St. Wandree at
Mons ; a reliquary presented by Louis XI. of Franco to tha
Church of Note Dame at Hal; the shrine of St. Mark,
at Huy, ornamented with splendid enamels ; a chi dice
used by St. Bernard at the Abbey of Allingen ; -and,
lastly, the rich plate from the lid of a gospel-book of the

Among the chalices exhibited there are seine very fine once
of the 14th and 15th centuries, which offer very valuable
subjects of study for religious artiste, ()specially ono
belonging to ;the Cardinal Archbishop of Males, and
another from the church of St. Elizabeth at ,Moos. There
is also a chalice of colossal proportions, made in the 18111
century, remarkable for the statuettes of nymph is decorating
the face; which show to what aberrations art can descend
when not inspired by Christian sentiments. A collectioh
of thirty-five remonstrances arranged in chronological order,
the oldest being of the 13th century (from the ch.nrch of
Hassell), gives a good idea of the splendour of religious art
in the Middle Ages compared with the epochs of decline-
The remonstrances of the church of Notre-Dame o.f the
Dominicans (Louvain), of Notre-Dame de Lede, and o.f the
Gellite Fliers (lalines), are especially remarkable for
