The Church in Alnskn.

The London Globe, of November s. writing upon
the subject Of religion in Alaska, says;-The ortho-
dox Church OF Russia displays little eagerness to
meet the advances OF those who, banled by the un-
bending obstnacy OF Rome, seek TO bring about The
reunion Of Uhrlstendom by closer relationship with
the East The last step in this direction appears TO
have been taken by the American bishops. 1t was
even rumored on the Continent that the Episcopa-
ltanS OF the United States had made proposals to the
Holy Synod for sacramenta union with the Greco
Russian Church. 1t appears, however, from The
Russian journals that the proposition only referred
TO the new Territory OF Alaska when 1t was suggested
thar members OF the Greek Church and Episcopaans
should be admitted TO communion without distlnc-
ton. The synod, however, Without returning d.
rect negative 10 the American bishops. was con-
tented to reply that the consideration the matter
must be adjourned Tor the present, since they had
not yet suniclenty examined the ritual and lnstitu-
lions or the Anglican Church.
