SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS,

The Times thinks that the likaue of Commons is to
congratulated on having gone through another section of
the Ministerial Bill on Thursday night, and cn having
entirely disposed of the clauses granting compensation to
persons deprived of income by the. measure. The
sions in the course of the evening were marked by the
usual majorities of 100 to 115 on the side of the Govern-
.ment, and we believe that if any supporter of the Minis-
try felt any comppnction in supporting the terms of com-
pensation propose] by the bill it would be more than
dispelled upon due consideration of the facts of the case.
Irish rectors And Irish curates will be secured in the
enjoyment of such incomes as they have hitherto received,
and this is no slight matter ; but it is scarcely necessary
to add that the Free Irish Episcopal Church of the future
will be neither poor in- wealth • nor weak in spirit.
The landowners of Ireland are Protestant, and it
cannot be supposed that the Irish gentry will be
slack to support the Ministers of the communion to which
they belong. The Church holy will be endowed with
churches, with ecclesiastical residences, and with commu-
tations, and the reconstruction of the • liish Church will
enable its. governing committee or trustees to promote the
claims of merit and of zeal in a degree little inferior to
that hitherto it pesaible under the organisation of the
high Establishment. Some economy in administration
will, of course, be effected, but it will, be economy of a
character the, propriety of which no one will deny. It will
be an incident of reorganisation that unnecessary offices
will be suppressed and over-paid duties reduced ; but
whatever charge may be inflicted, and justly inflicted, on.
the Protestant laity of Ireland in requiring them to pay
in the future for privileges hitherto enjoyed at the public
expense, the clergy of the Episcopal Church will have
cause to acknowledge that no revolution of similar moment
has ever been effected with such an absence of trial and
suffering to the clergy themselves.

The Telegraph observes that Englishmen ate pro-
verbially jealous of the slightest interference with what
they call vested interests ; and hence not the least ticklish
part of the Irish Church Bill is that which falls under the
head of " compensation to persons deprived of income."
However, the Com Mons have cut off the heads of the
principal difficulties. Mr. Gladstone asserts that, on an
average, each of the permanent curates will receive as
compensation a sum of ..£l,ao or 4:1,400; and if they cau
get permission from the incumbent of the parish—which
many will do by " compounding " with him for the loss of
their services, or in other words, by giving a con-
siderable share of the prize—they are free to roam
the wide world over in search of curacies, with
perhaps £7OO or 'Eno in their pockets to pay the
expenses. As for the non-permanent brethren, they may
go where they like without asking leave from anybody,
and take their whole prize-money in their pockets. If
not wanted in Ireland, they can go to England, Scotland,
the United States, Canada, India, Australia, or any other
country which possesses a branch of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church. But Conservative members are too prone
to fancy that a crowd of curates will be cast adrift from
their Irish moorings. The idea, we repeat, is a libel on
the generosity of the Irish Protestants —a libel which finds
its beat refutation in the vast wealth that has been poured
into the ecclesiastical treasury of Scotland by the Pro-
testant Free Churchmen in that country. The Irish
curates have no reason to despair. They are to be left i❑
clover. May we add the fervtnt hope that, since the
recital of their woes is singularly dry, and since their fate
has now been settled, the House of Commons has heard
the last of their troubles!.
