MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS.

The Religious Difficulty.

The letter of the consistent Nonconformist, Mr.
Bathes, has called forth further expression of opinion
from Lord Shaftesbury, who thinks that Mr. Baines's
testimony ought to be considered as proof positive
that the Dissenting bodies are, as a rule, not opposed
to Bible teaching for school children. His lordship
is certain that among women-nonconformists the
desire for religious instruction is almost unanimous,
and he, moreover, believes that if the admission of
the Bible was conceded the clergy and laity of the
Church of England would assent to the exclusion of
catechisms and formularies from the rate-provided
schools.
