| IHE ENGLISH SERMON TRADE.-The trade
8n sermons (manuscript sermons sold to clergy
men for use in the pulplt) is an English
institution, as nowhere else do we see them so
&reely advertised. This trade, we are told by
She English journals, has grown enormously
within few years. The newspapers which
Iclrculate more especially among the clergy of
3the English establishments have Regularly
contained advertisements Offering original.
lsa!e, and the fact OF their extensive ADVERTISE
ment shows that they are extensively used.
Upon this subject the Observer of this city
truthtully remarks that in this country it
would impair, if not destroy. any man g useful
sness IN the ministry IL it were known that he
depended upon others in any way for his dis
COURSES, and the grossness Of the evil seems
Ito be WORKING cure abroad. Within few
weeks private circular has informed the
clergy IN Engl nd that periodical to be made
up entirely OF sermons Is about to be issued,
ITS sale ba1ng Ell limited TO gentlemen in holy
3orders. This is felt 70 be pushing the system
too far, and the project seems likely to bring
Sabout strong reaction. The Guardian, which
&ehas been in the habit OF publishing adyertise-
ments of this kind, declares that it will do 80
90 more. The Guardian says: "If the iaity
pnce come to the conclusion that preachers are
fommonly indebted to others for their SER
icons, jew clergynen will be above suspicion.
only the very able or very Industrious will be
nave gone into the market for discourse, and
taint of insincerity will attach to hundreds OF
xcel!ent clergymen who have done nothing to
Weserve it, For our own part we have deter
aimed net to lend our advertising columns to q
Iystem which we are unable to defend. We
III at least practice, at a loss to ourselves.

LITTLE xGNOR4NCEs.
From tho Spectator.

From tho spectator
A few boys and girls acquire the art by some
process which seems intuitive, and spell per-
Rectly years before they can by possibility have
read half the words they are ultimately req,lir-
ed to use. Printers oil know how very little
the spelling. even OF the best educated, is to
be trusted; and we have reason to believe that
IL English journalists were weeded by on ex-
animation in which genealogical accuracy was
the sine qua nor. the profession would lose
some very competent members. One occa-
sional contributor to this journal man whose
education has been Of singularly perfect kind,
and who is q true scholar in his way, never
sends in o contribution without half dozen
chronological errors; and there are double-firsts
who would rather trust themselves In Greek
than English without pocket dictionary.
IT 10 o curious proof OF the accuracy OF this
view that the commercial schools, which pro-
tess to teach, and do teach, spelling, do not
turn out spoilers half as accurate as the public
schools, which profess to teach nothing Of the
kind ard that hundreds OF persons learn to
spell, or rather begin to spell, we'll habitu slly
only in nnanhood--that is. when the attention
has at last been aroused. Whether tha ex-
treune case, that OF man Of high culture, who
absolutely could moi learn TO spell ever happen
ed, we are uncertain; but almost all men who
have to read manuscript believe II; ana kin.

there was large ugly knot on the rope seve-

her pole TO the crowd below, and with o despe.

greatly to regain o position on the rope. but
hung suspended BY. the hands. The widest

There were loud cries OF s'lower the rone, =
