ADDRESS TO PROTESTANTS.—The committee of the
National Club has issued an address to the Protestants of
the empire, on the present aspect of the Papal question,
the practical recommendations of which are :—" 1. The

enforcement of the laws against Romish religious orders.
2. The withdrawal of all aid from Popish schools in
England. 3. The withdrawal of the grant to Maynooth.
4. Such a modification of the rules which regulate the
national board in Ireland as shall ensure a sounder course
of education in the national schools themselves, and shall
give the schools of the Church Education Society a share
of the public grants."

The Exeter Western Luminary gives the following
extract from a sermon by the Rev. J. Lincoln Galton,
referring to a report that Mrs. Galton had been received
into the Roman Catholic Church :—" In resuming my
accustomed labours among you, it is but due to
the mercy and loving kindness of God thus publicly
to acknowledge His benefits vouchsafed in sparing
me from that which might have been a very lengthened
illness. It is right that, with reference to the report which
has received very large currency, in connexion with one
nearest and dearest to myself, I should ask with prayer
that that report may never receive confirmation So far
as it has been stated it is not true. Let this be distinctly
understood ; such a step has not been taken, and on this
day I ask your prayers, even though it may seem hoping
against hope, that such may never be taker, or, if it
should be, that God, in His mercy, may give me the
strength to bear that cross, that nothing may sever me
from my proper work, the charge of your souls."
SOCIETY FOR THE PROPAGATION OF THE GOSPEL.—
The third jubilee of the Society for the Propagation of
the Gospel in Foreign Parts was celebrated at York on
Tuesday last. The Archbishop preached is most able
sermon on the occasion, which was heard with marked
attention by the Lord Mayor, corporation, and a very
large body of the clergy. Immediately after divine ser-
vice, a public meeting was held, the room being crowded
to excess. His Grace presided, and the Parent Society
was represented by the Rev. H. S. Vernon, secretary,
from London, and the Rev. J. W. Warr, from Liverpool.
Large contributions were received, both in the minster
and at the meeting. On the previous day, a yery large
and influential meeting was held at Doncaster. The Ven.
the Archdeacon of York (in the absence of the Archbishop,
who was detained by indisposition) took the chair. Mr.
Warr represented the Parent Society. It was expected
that upwards of £5OO would be collected for the jubilee
fund in the district.

DURATION OF LIFE AMONG THE CLERGY.—The fol-
lowing is an extract from the Medical Times :—" This
paper was the first of a series of communications which
Dr. Guy proposed addressing to the Society on the dura-
tion of life among the members of the several professions.
A preliminary inquiry into the subjects, based upon facts
extracted from the obituaries of the Annual Register, was
brought under the notice of the British Association in
September. 1846, and was subsequently published in the
ninth volume of the Statistical Society. In that essay, it
was shown that the clergy are longer lived than the mem.
bers of other professions, though they do not live so long
as the population of England, and not so long by several
years as agricultural labourers. The facts contained in
the present communication tended to confirm the results
established in the former essay, by showing a very favour-
able duration of life among the clergy ; but detailed com-
parisons of one profession with another were necessarily
reserved till the completion of the contemplated series of
papers. The essay was illustrated by several tables ;
among others, by tables comparing the clergy of cities
and towns with those of rural places, the married with
the single clergy, and the clergy of past times with those
of the present day. It resulted from these tables, which
were admitted to be based on some points on too small a
number of facts, that the clergy of rural districts had an
advantage of more than two years over those in cities and
towns, and the married of more than five years over the
single. The duration of life among the clergy in the last
three centuries appears to have been remarkably steady,
with signs of recent improvement."
CALUMNY AGAINST Mg. GORRAM.—A statement hav-
ing been made by several clergymen of an eastern diocese
on the 13th of October last, to the following effect, that
the Rev. G. C. Gorham preached a charity sermon a
short time since, and after the collection put his hand
into the plate, and took therefrom £3 as his fee, and £2
(as he said) for his curate," the reverend gentleman thus
writes in reply :—" I hereby give the most positive and
unequivocal contradiction to the statement ; and I do
solemnly declare that it is utterly devoid of truth, except
as to the fact that I did some time since' (namely, on
the Ist of June last) preach two ' charity sermons' for the
Sunday Schools of Havering, in Essex. It is possible
that on that occasion I did ' put my hand into the plate,'
although I have no positive recollection on the matter ;
but, if I did so, it was certainly for the purpose of con-
tributing a trifle to the charity, not to take therefrom.' "
In reference to the above, the Cambridge Chronicle says :
—" A statement, it appears, having got abroad that the
Rev. G. C. Gorham preached a charity sermon a short
time since, and after the collection put his hand into the
plate, and took therefrom three pounds as his fee, and
two pounds (as he said) for his curate ;' and this referring
to the charity sermons preached for the Sunday schools,
at Havering, the rev. gentleman has put forth a denial of
this, which he describes as a slander, but be adds—' As
I do not employ a " curate," it was impossible for me to
undertake these charity sermons until a minister had been
provided as my substitute in my own church, with the
usual remuneration, which a perfect stranger expected
and received from me. This " fee," and my personal
travelling expenses, amounted to about the sum which I
am charged with having abstracted from the plate. Such
sum, it is quite true, was repaid to me the day after the
sermons by the incumbent. I presume that no clergyman
who has the slightest pretensions to good sense and to
honourable feeling will maintain that I acted unbecom-
ingly in receiving a reimbursement for actual expenses
incurred, much less will bold that f " IQQk a fee" for
myself end for my curate.' "

fifty years ago, by the present minister, the Rev. Dr.
Steinkopff.

At an early hour on Wednesday morning, a rick of hay,
situate at Grafton, about three miles from Hereford, was
discovered to be on fire. The rick was the property of
Mr. Lloyd, landlord of the Brick-kiln Inn, at Grafton,
and contained about 15 tons, only three or four of which
were saved. There is little doubt of the fire being occa-
sioned by an incendiary.
Lately, at Leicester, a horse fell down in the street, and

that the pelvis and not the thigh was broken. The ani-

the pelvis wrs found broken in several pieces; the frac-
tured ends had punctured the bladder, and also one of
the large intestines. It is considered very extraordinary
that a horse going at a walking pace should receive such
extensive injuries from a simple fall.
