" To THE FAITHFUL IN CHRIST JESUS, THE PRIESTS
AND DEACONS, AND TIIE LAY MEMBERS OF THE
CHURCH OF CHRIST IN COMMUNION WITH THE
ANGLICAN BRANCH OF THE CHURCH CATHOLIC,—.
" We, the undersigned Bishops, gathered under
the good providence of God for prayer and con-
ference at Lambeth, pray for you that ye may
obtain grace, mercy, and peace from God our
Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ our
Saviour.
" We give thanks to God, brethren beloved, for
the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love
towards the Saints, which hath abounded among
you; and for the knowledge of Christ which through
you bath been spread abroad among the most
vigorous races of the earth. And with one mouth
we make our supplications to God even the Father,
that by the power of the Holy Ghost He would
strengthen us with His might, to amend among us
the things which are amiss, to supply the things
which are lacking, and to reach forth unto higher
measures of love and zeal in worshipping Him, and
in making known His name ; and we pray that in
His good time he would give back unto His whole
Church the blessed gift of unity in Truth.
" And now we exhort you in love that ye keep
whole and undefiled the Faith once delivered to the
Saints, as ye have received it of the Lord Jesus.
We entreat you to watch and pray, and to strive
heartily with us against the frauds and subtleties
wherewith the Faith bath been aforetime and is
now assailed.
" We beseech you to hold fast as the sure word
of God all the canonical Scriptures of the Old and
New Testament, and that by diligent study of these
oracles of God, praying in the Holy Ghost, ye seek
to know more of the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour,
whom they reveal unto us, and of the will of God
which they declare.
" Further, we entreat you to guard yourselves and
yours against the growing superstitions and addi-
tions with which in these latter days the truth of
God hath been overlaid ; as otherwise, so especially
by the pretension to universal sovereignty over God's
heritage asserted for the See of Rome ; and by the
practical exaltation of the blessed Virgin Mary as
mediator in the place of her, Divine Son, and by the
addressing of prayers to her as intercessor between
God and man. Of such beware, we beseech you,
knowing that the jealous God giveth not His honour
to another.
" Build yourselves up therefore, beloved, in your
most holy faith ; grow in grace and in the know.
ledge and love of Jesus Christ our Lord. Show
forth before all men by your faith, self-denial,
purity, and godly conversation, as well as by your
labours for the people among whom God hath so
widely spread you, and by the setting forth of His
Gospel to the unbelievers and the heathen, that ye
are indeed the servants of him who died for us to
reconcile His Father to us, and to be a sacrifice for
the sins of the whole world.
" Brethren beloved, with one voice we warn you ;
the time is short ; the Lord cometh ; watch and be
sober. Abide steadfast in the communion of saints
wherein God hath granted you a place. Seek in faith
for oneness with Christ in the blessed sacrament of
His body and blood. Hold fast the Creeds, and
the pure worship and order, which of God's grace
ye have inherited from the Primitive Church. Be-
ware of causing divisions contrary to the doctrine ye
have received. Pray and seek for unity among your-
selves, and among all the faithful in Christ Jesus,
and the good Lord make you perfect, and keep your
bodies, souls, and spirits until the coming of the
Lord Jesus Christ.

TIIE PRINCESS OF WALES.—We are happy to
learn that her Royal Highness has received so much benefit
from the waters at Wiesbaden that it has been thought
desirable to continue the course. Her stay, therefore, will
probably be somewhat longer than was at first anticipated
Their Royal Highnesses the Crown Prince and
Princess of Prussia, who aro expected to arrive in this
country within the next few days, will, it is understood
take up their residence at Buckingham Palace, where their
Royal Highnesses, it is expected, will remain till the re-
turn of the Queen from Scotland.
PROPOSED BANQUET TO MR. BRIGHT. —At a
meeting held at Birmingham, on Monday, it was resolved
to invite Mr. Bright to a banquet in the Town Hall, in
November next, at the date which may prove most con-
venient to him. Invitations will be sent to other promi-
nent members of the House of Commons.

On Sunday morning a very elegant candela-
brum was placed in the pulpit of the Chapel Royal in the
t3avoy. In the centre is fixed a sand glass, which, on
entering, the pulpit, the chaplain turned down, and
directly the sand had run out (in about 20 minutes) the
preacher ceaped.
