RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.

RELIGION IN Notwithstanding to
the Paris Moniteur, the Protestant Church
in France possessed in 1915, 464 pastors
in 1913, CIT and in 1915, upwards of
100. The Budget of the, Protestant
Church amounted, under the Empire, TO
SOC, OOOf.; under the Restoration to &c.
OOOf.; and in 1915, to l,2l9,000f. The
number of their temples has likewise in
creased; but they have still Ill localities
without any places of worship. There is
in France Protestant population OF about
100000 and Catholic population of
about rs 100000. The movement in fa-
vor of Evangelical preaching is still on the
increase. At Limoges, a house of wor-
ship is being erected; and at Rancon, about
so heads of families have requested M.
Roussel TO establish religious worship "a
mong them. The local authorities are ia
vorable, and eleven of the municipal coun-
Gil joined in the request. The new move
m ent in favor of Evangelical religion in
Belgium, is also making very considerable
progress.
PopERY IN GREAT BRITAIN,-It appears
from the Roman Catholic Directory for
1915, that the Catholics have 500 church.
es and chapels, in England and Wales, and
73 in Scotland ten colleges in England
and one in Scotland thirty converts and
three monasteries in England, and one
convent in Scotland 666 missionary
priests in England and Wales, and 81
in Scotland.
FUNDS OF THE PRoPAGANDA.-The Pa
rs journals state that the receipts of the
Society, instituted at Lyons, for the propa'
CATION of the Catholic faith, amounted il
1914, to 3,562,O98 francs.
AMERICAN BoARD.-The receipts of the
r American Board of Missions for January
amounted to $22, 56l, and those for Feb
) ruary to about 100000. The expendi
lures for the year ending Aug. !, 1914
were $244,37l.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT AMONG SEAMEN.-
From letter of the Secretary of the A.
merican Seamens Friend Society, TO the
Editor, we give the following striking con-
trast:
"Twenty-fve years ago, not a Church
dedicated for Seamen to worship in could
be found in the world mot Seaman's
Temperance Society,-nor Temperance
Boarding House for Seamen ; and scarce
ly Bethel flag foated in the breeze
Now the flag, (he signal for public wor-
ship,) is becoming familiar as the face OF
an intimate friend; Seamen's Chapels
meet the eye like green spots in the desert
Numerous Sailors Homes have been es-
tabshed lone of which, in New York,
had within the year ending May |, 1914,
dll4 boarders; and a single Marine Tenn
perance Society in the same city, has more
than II, 900 names on its total abstinence
pledge. Twenty years ago a religion:
sailor was rare curiosity. Now probo
bly, GOO shipmasters, and more than 600C
officers and sailors are praying men. Thel
a revival of religion among sailors was NJ
more known or expected than was show
or of gold. Now showers richer than gol
den, frequently fall upon this class of men
on shipboard and on shore. Som of on
merchant ships, several whale ship, nnt
one of our ships Of war, have exhibited
scenes surprising fable, and yet true
scenes of penitence, holy peace, and hum
