THE ANGLICAN CLERey-1HE APPROACHING
GcUMENIcAL COUNCIL AT RoME.-A very I'M
portant, if true, bit of news comes to US by
the last English mail-the news, namely that
III considerable number of Anglican cleie ey-
men have determined to attend the forthcom-
ing General" Council at Rome, in order to
STAY their difficulties before the assembled
prelates of the Universal Church" Their
.'eai nest DESIRE it seems, is to be united to
Rome. but their chief difficulty is that they
have perfect faith in the validity of their or
ders, and believe that it would be sacrilege
either to submit to reordinahon or 10 revert to
the position of laymen. A special commit
tee has been appointed at Rome to dea! with
the subject OF Anglican orders, and our
contemporary has no doubt that the re-
verend pIlsr ms will have all their doubts set
ut rest. As the ultimate result Of this mission
to Rome, the London Weekly ReSister-a we'll
informed Roman Catholic Journal Anticipates
tnat there will be IAN accession to the Church
OF some of the besc aud most pious Anglican
ergy and that many am)ngst the lalty Will
follow their example. THIS il curious pro-
c.pdlug-and will be va chel with no little
IN e,est on this side OF the Atlantic. Inc
american brancl OF tho Anglican Church hap
pens to have lot o few cergymen within lis
pale. who seem 10 be troub.el with the same
difficulties as those which aff1lct the brethren
abroad q, d if there 10 to be, On the part OF the
l,tt er, any travelling Romeward, it wnuld not
pe surprising if they should have company

west, 70 near Kingston, connecting with the
Blue Ridge Railroad, ls the true and best plan
for Cincinnati. The real object 70 to make q
direct Southern trunk line, which should con-
meet at the most central point with the North
Carolina system OF railroads; with the Blue
Ridge Road of South Carolina; with the Savan-
nah Valley Road now making, and with the
Selma and Mobile Road. All this can bo done
by trunk line carried either to Knoxville, or
to some point within forty miles Of it. To do
this will require: l. The purchase Of the Ken
lucky Central; and, 2. The making Of 160 miles
of new road, at cost Of $40 900 per mile. S. 400
600. The total amount of money required will
be nearly if not quite the SO 0OO. 600, which
the law authorizes the city to raise. The
work can be done. and every mile Of it finished
within two years. Suppose it done. what will
it do {? In our opinion, the benefit 10 Cincin-
na:i is almost incalculable. 1t gives her the
trade of an immense country. in which she
can have no rival. 80 fnr as the exchange is
for Western products. Nov, that whole trade,
nearly, goes to other cities, at double the dis:
tance By this trade, Western products will
be laid down insthe Southern Atlantic much
cheaper than can be now. So We say-Hurrah
for the Southern Railroadl Urge it on | Make
it quick. and wait not for another generation
to do what is inevitable.

A SWEEPING OFFSET 10 The ALABAMA cLAIAs.
LONDON, May 1.-THE Morning Standard,
Conservative, has long: leading article to-day
on the Alabama question and the speech OF
Senator Sumner in the United States Senate.
The writer reviews the relative positions OF The
United States and Great Britain. and asserts
that the raids and other outrages perpetrated
by the American Fenians in Canada during the
past few years more than overbalances the de-
predations committed by the Alabama on
American commerce. The Government OF
Great Britain, in consenting to submit their
mutual international grievances to arbitration,
did more than could be fairly demanded, and
to yield further would be an act Of cowardice
and degradation.
