In the great combat which has commenced, The
philosophers in Edtlaud--that is to say, the dis
ciples OF Locke, fr NJ Mr.. Fox TO Messrs. Owen
and Holyoke, rally around the banner Of National
Education, and under the pretext OF religious neu
trality disguise their opposition to the dognes ot
Christianity. ! do not reprosch them for seeking
10 propagate their principles and for employing the
most certain and rapid for this purpose, re-
hgious education but | reproach them for not
being franklin no. seeing, or for not saying, that
every system Of education reposes on Instruction
in a general coorse Of doctrine. Thus Atheism
should be the basis Of education among an
Athestic people Deism among Deistic people;
while so long as Pc pie is Christian, Christianity
ought Ia remain as the basis Of education among
the people. Neutrality is a chimera or deceP'

come to another passage Of the same letter,
which is constructs thus " | spoke Just now OF the
LatitudiparaDs demand another word for their
moral system, which is still broader, and propose
TO call them the IncOmmrnsurables.' IL would
be supposed that wished TO apply this term to the
Latitudnarans. These poor Latitudlnarans al
ready have enough o. their latitude, OF which the
limit Is every possible Interpretation OF revealed
religion. The system, which, in my opinion, would
have no other possible limit than incommensura-
biity is that which certain persons, who have
contracicted the details that gave you with re-
gard to the personal tendencies Of the Queen OF
England and the K ng Of y elgium wish 70 attribute
10 their Majesties According TO these persons, the
King Of Belgium and the Queen Of England have
no tendencies Oh one aide or the other, have no
fixed IDEAS ON questions which preoccuPy their
subjects with the greatest interest. THIS IS the
rev sect Of "lnoommensursbles," which alluded
to as a pleasantly, and Of which the leaders were

respect 70 the t1o persOnsges, who are certainly
the eltft Of the crowned heads OF Europe.
To bring the religious question to a close for to-
day. will state that the number OF Ministers OF
the Anglican Church who have returned TO the
Roman Church has been increased within few
weeks by the addition Of some young Levltes,
distinguished for their talents and character TINS
would tend TO prove that the bill presented by
he Bishop Of London 10 establish mode OF N,
vocation for the Church and an appeal IN matters oil
faith is far from satisfying the ardent and i'm
patient. The bill has not yet been discussed IN
Parliament. The discussion has been retarded for
some days at the instance OF the Marquis oil Lans'
downe, President OF the Council | have not YET
formed any fixed opinion on the character OF this
measure. II is certain that the alarm is very lively
among the members Of the Church, and that even
the Bishop Of London himself has not heHtated 70
declare in letter given to the public, that TIE
Church seems menaced with formidable dangers
merely state facts in this place, and II must
express my true opinion, without any reserve, on
account Of the incOmp eteDess Of expression IN TN
Unpremeditated correspondence, / do not approve
If these precpitate returns 70 the HOman Church,
as it now exists. The slavery Of the Roman Cnurch
under tie yoke Of Russia and Austria, and stui
more under the yoke Of the money lenders, and the
Jewish Bankers is far more severe than the pre-
tended slavery Of the Charch Of England
believe, without doubt, in reorganization OF
the unity Of the Church, But reform is necessary
and in the Roman CLuch, more than anywhere else
At all events, the Individual conversns have NJ
value for the Roman Church They are OF more
importance for the Anglican Church, as a warning
of the necessity which is imposed upon It OF more
solid Reorganization In respect OF dogmatlc authosl'
ty and Of putting astOp 10 great number oil abuses
in the bosom Of the eccessstic establishment bat
without destroying the principle OF the establish
ment | believe that If the Anglican Church &C.
cdes this reform, il has the utmost interest IN
maintaining itself as a separate branch oil the
Catholic and Apostolic, not Roman, Church, and IN
awaiting for the moment which ia near at hand Tor
the spirit Of religious unity 70 be sufficiently de-
veloped in the three great divisions OF the British
Empire England, Scotland, and Ireland for gen
ersl and mutual agreement, whether In connection
! with Rome or independent OF Rome.
IL IL certain that the same spirit which animated
Lamennas, Montaembert and Lscordaire IN 1880,
pregard to the absolute separation OF Church ant
State, has here made rapid progress among the
younger clergy II is also oertainthat the Material
ism and the Sceptctm Of certain prebendaries OF the
Church have produced an ascetcreaction. This re
action Is very salutary fact in the very bosom OF
the Anglican Church. But it appears to me thas
the time has not arrived for il TO leave the national
frontiers and enter ,he Italian Peninsula. should
be glad to remind those impatient spirits OF the
able Of the pigeons. They do not know what they
cave when they separate from branch OF the
Catholic and Apostolic Church which has a more
Independent establishment than the Court Of Rome,
and which sits in the House Of Lords OF a Paria-
ment which, at this moment, must be recognized
as the most important power OF the old European
world.
This brings me back to the current politics. The
difficulty between France aud England in relation
TO the Greek affair, is not yet settled The IN
higue which aimed 10 separate Lord PalmerstOn
and his colleagues has completely failed The hsr-
mony Of the English Cabinet remains undisturbed.
But ut the same time thel Cabinet makes every
effort to smooth down the difficulties the English
Ambassador continues at Paris Lord Normandy
has had long conferences with the President. l
have not changed my opinion with regard TO the es
sental features Of the affair. have doubt that
the French Cabinet, from the desire to gain con-
sPicuous position and 20 GAUGE a little embarrass-
ment has placed Itself in a udicrous quaadary and
that without guarding against the danger OF a
purely oihclous interference, 1t determined at all
events TO have a share in the matter.
An expression Of N. Drouyn De Lhuys 10 Lord
Pamerston well describes both the Ambassador
and the miserable Government he was commits
stoned TO represent. ave need" said he, " for
the support Of our domestic policy to show that we
have great influence with the Government of the
Queen. Accept our good Offices in the Greek az

try" AS as the experiment failed in this re-
spect, TIE same Government of novices, in mita.
ION OF the older powers wished TO produce an eff
