THE CABINET SECRET.

which they are designed. The productions of
Paine, of Colenso, of Renan, are now to be found
in the hands of nearly all who can read, but who
have not the necessary knowledge to detect the
danger latent behind the display of intellectual fire- I
works by which their mental vision is dazzled and
confused. Left to the resources of their own feeble
reason—enfeebled by the very fact of Ole mere
smattering of secular learning given theni=they
are easily enmeshed in the snares laid for them. Do
we tarn from this view of the matter to the field of
journalism, the result is the same—perhaps worse.
It is the province of journalism to guide thein-
tellect of the country—to direct the mind of the
multitude to a proper appreciation of matters of
public well-being and =lnlay ; and no one who
is in the habit of coming in contact with all classes
of people—from the rich -to the poor—can fail to
see how effectively each is guided by its own special
organ. It would be well for the nation, indeed, if
such a powerful influence as journalism is every-
where acknowledged to be were consistently and
universally exerted amongst us on the side of jus-
tice and virtue. Far from this, however, being
the case, the majority of our papers are devoted to
the dissemination of revolutionary and destructive
doctrines. The indefeasible rights of sovereigns,
whose claims date back for ages, are ignored, and
their subjects openly exhorted to rebellion. The
safeguards of religion are ruthlessly attacked by
these public prints, and the deep-seated convic-
tions and inalienable beliefs of millions of fellow-
creatures—amongst

our public courts. Indeed, on reading the ac-
counts of many of these cases, given with such
fulness of detail, an impartial person would not
hesitate to say that they were specially prepared to
appeal to the degraded passions of the lowest stra-
tum. of society. Such, in brief, is the way in which
English journalism too often acquits itself of its

of our own times. We have certainly taught the
masses to read and write ; and, having thus rinetspelolencstihni It is
of
ren-
dered them susceptible of mental impressions, we
have handed them over helpless to the purveyors
of .infidelity and the writers of sensation novels.
Our youth is not educated. We cram them with
crude figures and facts,--of abiding principles, but
which should guide them to the choice of what is
good and true, and. enable them to reject what is
false and vicious, we have taught them nothing.
Looking to the results which may he seen around
us, one may be permitted to doubt if, after all, our
ignorant ancestors are so much to be pitied ! Yet
the deplorable state of irreligion, to which our in-
tellectual progress. is rapidly hurrying the nation,
is only the natural outcome of our false system
of education. Instead of bringing in religion to
control and direct the advance of intelligence, it
is the aim of modern science to keep them separate
and independent—and even to render them antago-
nistic. The antagonisms resulting between the hy-
potheses of science and the doctrines of religion
are strongly insisted upon, and made to tell with
destructive effect upon the pliant and suscep-
tible minds of their pupils by the Atheistic pro-
fessors who lead in the van of learning; and the
result is what we now see—the elevation of In-
tellect, in the esteem of men, to the place of God.
The tide of infidelity is rising rapidly around us,
and the only foundation yet unsapped by its
action—the only barrier capable of resisting its
advance—is the Rock of the Church, whose
strength and numbers are steadily increasing as
the crisis becomes more imminent.

MANCIIESTEE, Mty shipping yarns we
have had a stet ly in trkct to-day, and a fair busi- •
ness has been done at full prices. There are some
very large orders in the market. which could be
placed if spinners wont I accept rather lower offers,
but this branch of the market closes rather firm. In
home trade yarns the market is steady; In coa'rse
numbers a moderate business has been done. Finer.
counts are steady, but not in much demand. Cloth
for both the home trade and foreign markets is
rather dearer, the Liverpool cotton market having
remained firm, notwithstanding the recent com-
mercial disasters. Manufacturers are well under
contract; though at doing much business to-
day they adhere with much firmness to their quo-
tations. The principal of the orders for cloth in
the hands of manufacturers are for India, mer-
chants in the home trade continuing to ope-
rate sparingly. The shipping returns for India
are expected to show enormous consignments,
ILA there might be fears that the trade
would be overdone, but that it is known from the
large influx of wealth to that country for cotton,
and.Vrie extension of railways, there is room for a :7'
great development of the cloth trade there. Messrs.
John Slagg and Co. report :--Since Tuesday last
prices have slightly hardened, and during the week
a considerable business has been done. Manufac-
turers being now well engaged refuse further order s
at the current rates of to-day.
CARDIFF, 27.—There is more business doing in
the steam coal trade; still the demand is far below
the capabilities of the collieries, and below what it
was at the corresponding period of last year. The
removal of the war cloud will, it is believed, lead to
additional purchases on continental account. In
the inquiry from the mail packet companies there is
no alteration to note. The communication between
the Taff Vale Railway and the East Dock has been
completed, and that company will in future be able
to convey coal direct to the East Dock without going
over the Rhymney. There is a moderate coasting
sale for house qualities, but merchants experience a
good deal of keen competition, and prices are by no
means uniform. Freights continue low to both
home and foreign stations. There are slight indica-
tions of better times at the iron works, but the long
desired improvement will necessarily. be a slow one,
owing to the utter prostration of many -branches of
industry which are intimately connected with the
iron trade. Purchases of pigs are. made with greater
freedom on the part of buyers, and the market indi-
cates au improving tendency. Tin plates dull.
LEEDS, 28.—There was no feature of change ob-
servable in the aspect of the woollen cloth markets
here to-day. The attendance of buyers was not
large, and there was no great disposition to purchase
beyond small selections of goods to complete orders
on hand or to fill up assorted stocks. The slight
improvement which was noticeable last week has
certainly not increased so far as the home trade is
concerned, but, on the contrary, it has rather fallen
off. The comparatively cold and ungenial nature
of the weather keeps the summer goods trade from
expanding; and until the retailers' shelves are cleared
of some of their prescat stocks, the purchase of
autumn goods by merchants will remain quiet. The
foreign trade, taken as a whole, is getting a little
more active than we lately h vi to report it, yet it is
far from being brisk. There is n c'iangc in the
•
prices of wool, woollen yarns, or g Kids ; but, con-
sequent on the quotations for colonial wools at•the
sales now going on the metropolis, the local wool
markets have a lowering rather than a hardening
tendency.
ROCHDALE, 27.—The ittnnel market to-day
has shown little animation. The attendance of
buyers was less than last week, and they purchased
sparingly. The best demand was experienced for
fancy flannels, for which a moderate amount of
orders were received in addition to the stock bought
for immediate delivery. The demand for Yorkshire
goods keeps quiet, but prices are steady. There
was not much done in wools to-day. The lowered
currency of the present series of colonial wool sales
in London causes a somewhat depressing feeling
here,.and has the effect of restricting orders for goods
as well as the sales of wools. There was, however,
no noticeable change in the price of wool in this
market to-day.

The twelfth annual meeting of the United King-
dom Band of Hope Union took place last evening
at Exeter Hall ; Mr. Samuel Morley presided, and
atnongst others on the platform were—the Rev.
John Guttridge, the Rev. L. D. Bevan, LL.D.,
the Rev. B. W. Backe, M.A., Rev. Newman Hall,
LLD., and Joseph Payne, Esq. The proceedings
having been opened with prayer, the Secretary read
the report of the past year, from which it appeared
that a large number of bands of hope have been esta-
blished in different parts of the country; that juve-
nile intemperance was on the increase; and nowhere,
perhaps, is this more strongly manifested than at the
east-end of London. In one district of Whitechapel
there are 635 houses, peopled by 7,496 persons; there
are 1,780 children, 1,350 of whom do not attend any
school. In the same district there are 21 houses open
for drinking purposes; in another district, about a
quarter of a mile square, there are 6,165 houses,
25,000 families, and nearly 70,000 individuals; and
in one street alone in this district there are no less
than 24 houses licensed to sell intoxicating drinks.
The demand for the various publications of the
union continues on the increase. The finances of
the union do not show the pecuniary support that
might be rendered to so deserving au object, nor do
the committee think it has ever been supported to
the extent to which it may fairly lay claim ; and
they, therefore, earnestly urge the claims of the
Band of Hope movement on all who are interested
in the moral and religious welfare of the young.
The income of the past year amounted to £942 4s
93, and the expenditure was £966 9s sd. The
Chairman moved the adoption, of the report in an
appropriate speech, and the meeting was afterwards
addressed by several of the above-named gentle-
men. During the evening the children, of whom
there were about 600, sang a series of pieces very
well indeed.
