The Irish Church.

When the British Parliament meets In No
vember the question of the Irish Church will
be brought up, we trust, for final settlement.
Here in America we cannot understand how
any men of principle can be found to defend it,
considering that it does not number within its
fold one-eighth Of the population. We all
know how England proclaims herself the cham
pion of civil and religious liberty. And yet
this disgraceful anomaly has been forced upon
Ireland since the days Of Queen Elizabeth.
But we should like to know how the Irish can
be considered free If they are compelled to
accept a Church establishment which they
hate and which would crumble to pieces II
unsupported by the bayonets which garrison
Ireland. When It was attempted to force the
Anglican Church upon Scotland the Scotch
rose in arms against II and ultimately tri-
umphed. The Irish, more unfortunate still,
and smarting under far greater grievances,
repeatedly rebelled, but in every case in vain.
The question 80 often battled for among the
mountains of Ireland will now be settled with
out bloodshed within the walls of the House oil
Commons.
It strange freak Of fortune that the lead
ershp Of the tories at this crisis should rest
with BENJAMIN Disraeli. A Jew by descent Il
not by creed, he must laugh In his sleeve al
the strange turn of events which has made
him champion of the English Church In Ire.
land. in which he probably believes as sin
cerely as he does in the doctrines Of Confu
cius. His writings show nothing more marked
than his attachment to Judaism over all othe
religions. He probably cares as much for thu
Anglican Church as did his father, who re-
peatedly sneers at Christianity in his "Curiosi
ties of Literature" and reserves all his ADM
ration for the sceptic Bayle and the innde
voltaire. But Benjamin has genius as wen a
ambition. and supported as he will be by tn
squireocracy of England, he may hold out tina
Irish stronghold of bigotry against more thai
one assault. Ultimately, however, 1t mus
fall, or we shall cease to believe In human pro
gress and enlightenment.
