THE NEWMAN CONTROVERSY.
The most learned, eloquent, and otherwise eminent
OF the Oxford converts TO the Church of Rome, Or.
Newman-who has been appointed Principal OF the
Roman Catholic University of lrelandhasb been deliver
ing lectures on University Educauon ana nke the sos
of Iydeus In Homer, he has concentrated the noise
and violence of the fray around him. The "Socisty
for Irish Missions" which boasts OF 10000 converts
including some threescore and ten pries-in tue re-
eions of the far west and remote south OF this country,
has four or FIVE of the city churches occupied ali the
year round, on Sunday and weekday evenings, win
controversial sermons And, besides this, meetings In
schoolhouses for discussion, and more pubse meetings
In the Rotunda for reporting progress and keeping
public attention awake.
DIR. Eewmsn's coming to Dublin was the signal tor
giving interest to the controversy lie was cha
tepged 10 public discussion by Mr. Ellis the Secretary
he declined He was invited 70 meet Mr.. OCalSghsn
converted Priest on public platform, that each nigh
give his reasons for changing his religion hedecnsd
Then the leading men OF the Society resolved 10 aenu
his lectures and then hold public meetings Tor their re-
Or Newman has delivered four lecures-all of which
are, In great measure, preliminary Toe hTst was ON

countries, while England furnished her quota OF stu

remaining lectures Theology as Science, and
Its claims 10 primary place In Universy among the

DIR. Newman's object, thus far, has been to show,
that all education must be founded in regon,thst II

Bot this Is precisely what Protestant controversial

should direct 1T and hence, they dcnounce the Naoosl
