The Morning Advertiser of this day thus comniest4ArrFf
Mr, Gladstone's late speech in the Commons, on the tlrtr
reading of the Jews' Declaration Bill t--" Mr. Gladstone At 21 P
appears to entertain an opinion that the honesty and eon-
scientiousness of the Jews might beccme too conspicuous
in the House of Commons, where those qualities are so
glaringly deficient amongst its soi disant Christian Mem-
bers. Mr. Gladstone assumes what the whole duty of
corporate bodies is " the promotion of Christian objects,"
and for this the Jews as a class are disqualified. Faith, or
the profession of faith, in the Christian dispensation, as is
daily evidenced by the High Churchmen, is far different
from the practice of Christianity. Faith, however, is not
to be forced by Acts of Parliament."
The Times, speaking of last night's debate on the
Poor-law Bill, says—‘. It is true that Ministers were
compelled, reluctantly enough, to abandon certain clauses.
But what does the country gain by this ? To suffer so
much evil less than we were threatened wish is not to gain
a victory, or to obtain substantial relief. Every man iii
the House of Commons knows that the 140.000 persons
who have sent in their remonstrances against this bill,
did so, net because they wished to expunge this or that
clause, but because they were dissatisfied with the working
of the existing law, and required a relaxation of its se-
verity, instead of a further development of its principles.
Let those who desire to give such an account of their
stewardship as may prove satisfactory to those 140,000
etitioners, be able to show that their votes have tended
to introduce some positive am ndrnent into the existing
system."
The Morning Post alludes in the following terms to Mr.
Macaulay's speech on Wednesday night in the House of
Commons :—" He either produces laughter by his pom-
pous arrogance, or disgust by his servile malignity. It is
his misfortune to mistake insolence for intrepidity, and
noise for energy. Thus he roars along from sentenes to
sentence, exhibiting the shallowness of his conception,
and the bigotry of his party feeling, while you may road in
the gross conceit imprinted upon his vulgar visage his own
opinion that he has been showing off the liberality of his
knowledge, at the same time that he has been spreading
the knowledge of his liberal ty."
The Morning Chronicle observe:s, in the course of I
leading article suggested by the Jews' Declaration Bill :
" Whaher a person of one religion should be taxed for
repairing, or building, or endowing, the churches of an-
other religion, is a question of common justice, not of
theological creed. He «ho at.swers :t one way for his
own religion, and another for his neighbour's religion, thus
making money's worth of his filth at others' expenic, is
guoalhoe a dishonest man. His " religious associations"
are a very paltry apology. Nor does the excuse become
more sound if, iastead of a direct and gross transfer of
ca.h, the monopoly covet7.d is one of municipal office, or
legislative aut!m: icy, or any other of the forms of temporal
good in which a monopoly has teen claimed on the pie-
text 1 f peculi,r spirituality."

THE POOR-LAWS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,-It is too generally the case fur overseers of the
poor to make such a rate after Christmas as will cirry
them " handsomely" out of office; collecting the cream
of the rate, and leaving the long-winded payers and th•
poorest clans in arresra, for the newly.sppointed overseers
to collect from. Now, Sir, to remedy this evil, I would
suggest that a clause be inserted in the Bill now before
Parliament, enacting that the old overseers of the poor
shell remain and continue in office for the purpose of col-
lecting up and clearing all rates that shall have been made
during their year of office, and until the auditor has certi:
lied that these rates are closed and balanced.

N. B.:—An immense Stock of Jewellery and Fancy Goods at
25 to 30 per cent. below the usual London charges.

I am, Sir, your's, &c.

PUSEYISM AT A DISCOUNT.

(From the Morning Post.)
We understand that in consequence of the late proceed-
ings at Oxford, and the somewhat painful degree of ex-
citement, rather of a party than of a theological character,
which would henceforward inevitably attend the publica-
tion of the " Tracts for the Times," a great deal of dis-
cuviou has taken place on the subject of their discontinu-
ance. Many of the most earnest friends of Anglo- Catholic
pr:nciples had come to the determination of recommendiog
that the publication of the Tracts should not he continued,
but their views have been anticipated by the conclusion of
Dr. Pusey and Mr. Newman to the same effect. It is not
to be inferred from this that No. 90 will close the series,
though that may possibly be the determination, but rather
that the series shall speedily be wound up, as having,
under the blessing of Providence, in a most extraordinary
degree, answered its original purpose, and being now
likely to lead to something beyond that original purpose
which it were better not to attempt at all, or, if at all, in
some ether way.
There has not been any interference of authority in re-
spect to the publication of these Tracts, beyond that of the
heads of houses et Oxford which had special reference to
Tract No. 90. This resolution of the heads of houses is
very different from an authoritative declaration of the Uni-
versity of Oxford, which is expressed by the voice of con-
vocation. Bat, such as it is, it is the only formal or au-
thoritati,e disapproval which Tract No. 90 by itself, or
the " Tracts for the Times" in general, base received.
Whatever the opinions of some of the Bishops may ba
concerning these Tracts, it is certain that neither tike
episcopal bench, nor the Primate individually, has deemed
it needful to pronounce or intimate any opinion against '
their publication.
Should they be discontinued, it will be for the reasons
we have already stated.

The wonderful effects which have attended thew pub.
lications, and other writings of a similar character, der,
ing the last few years, are not likely to cease beeause
new tracts cease to come fortb. Excitement in the or-
dinary sense of the word was not the object of them,
but ratter a subduing of the religious mind of the
country to the ways of truth and soberness. There it no-
thing transient in the character of the impression which
they have made. They have attempted no appeal to what
may possibly he but the weaknesses and sclf-delusiona of
dreamy minds, but they have given a taste for close rea-
soning and solid learning, and they have inculcated devo-
tional habits intelligible to all, and pract'cable by all.
They have given teen's minds not only something to
work upon, but something to rest upon. They have given
intellect plenty to do, and yet have set up metes and
bounds for it that it may discern the accomplishment of
its talk and then be at rest. In dying all this there have
no doubt been faults; and perhaps now and then grave
ones, but still the work has been great, and the effect
glorious.

New habits have been formed in the Church—habits
which have within them the principle of permanence.
Men have got hold of enduring remons fur dcing what Is
right. Method has been engrafted upon zeal, and a new
life goer to sacred formalities, through a better under-
standing of their meaning. his true that much more re-
mains to be done in this way, but the seed has been sown,
and is growing up vigorously, and bids fair to prosper more
and more. The fluctuations of popular fashion will not
affect this growth, fir the revived principles and prac-
tices are to guide, aA not to be guided—to lead and not
to fallow—to teach with the mild earnestness of dignified
authority, and not to sue with flitt:ries of private judg-
ment or appeals to particular inapirajon.
We therefore believe that though the " Tracts for the
Times " should be discontinued, or continued but for a
short time longer, they would still live in their fruits—
in the production and reproduction of earnest theologians,
end dutiful as earnest—of men powerful in knowledge of
the Scripttr,os,,frear..,*ifich sOundcdOctritic is td he
