AsCEDEACON DENISON.

When it was announced that Archdeacon Denison
was to preach in two of the Liverpool churches, the
rector of the town deemed it necessary to write to
the editor of the Liverpool Courier announcing that
the Archdeacon was not an untiring advocate of
Ritualists, had never worn the vestments, and that
the only weakness he was guilty of with respect to
Ritualism was that he thought it would be the best
policy to "let them alone This has called forth a
letter from the Archdeacon himself in which he says : "I
have" never worn the vestments.' If I officiate
or preach in a church where coloured stoles are. worn,
I wear the stole belonging to the season ecclesiastical.
If it is the practice of the church to preach in agown,
I mach in a gown. When I said to the rector that
I had always counselled letting Ritualists alone, I
did not say so so as resuming to blame 6 Ritualists,'
or as not sympathising with them upon the principle
of their movement ; nor no I plead guilty. to any
weakness' in this latter particular. What I mean
by letting alone' is, that there is no more
room for those who prefer a low ceremonial to
interfere with those who prefer a high ceremonial
than there is for those who prefer a high ceremonial
to interfere with those who prefer a low ceremonial.
The last, indeed, is never done. The first is being
done continually." Referring to the opposition
offered to his speakin g at the working men's meeting,
the Archdeacon says the disturbance was got up by
some persons who, knowing nothing of the facts of
his life, persuaded a few men of Liverpool that he
was not true to the Church of England. On Sunday,
in the ordinary
Archdeacon Denison preached twice. At the church
where high ritual is adopted, the congregation is said
to have been small,
whir() at the church where service
is conducted
way there was an over-
flowing congregation.

Republicanism has beau proclaimed in many 'AAA

authorises arrest and imprisonment at rho aiscreathii of

So far as can be learned from the partial reports
which arrive, it would seem that most of the 'en-
gagements have terminated in favour of the Govern-
ment—albeit the ground over which the insurrection
extends has become so much wider. As a correspon-
dent of the limes says, it is hardly to bo expected it Call
be otherwise, unless the .Republicans get possession of
some stronghold, or are able to bring into play
some largo body of men at one moment. For
the present they seem rather to be going about
in detached parties of from thirty to forty up
to 300 or 400. " They may keep up the struggle a
long time in this manner, but, having poor arms, no money
except what they can force out of the populations as they
pursue their march, no discipline, and no military leaders
whatever, they are sure to be beaten in the end, unless
the troops 'pronounce,' which they would do in the
twinkling of an eye if their officers only gave the signal.
Prim is very determined to crush the rebellion, and, his
military reputation being at stake, he is sure to adopt
energetic and severe measures."
