short time since, the Protestant Bishop
of Manchester, England, preached in the par
ish OF Blackburn, and took occasion to de-.
noonce the scheme of secular education as be-
ing no better than that taught by the Greeks
nineteen centuries ago. Education without
rehglon was the darkness denounced by st.
raul. 1t was like excluding the sun by shut
'eFs and curtains, and burning gas. He was
sorry to see secular education advocated by the
Methodlsts, the Baptsts and the non Confor.
mists generally, and that, too, at time when
the education question had overthrown a
strong government. 1t had been the dream of
MS life that the Church of England should
gather into her fold all other denominations,
out he began to doubt the realization of
MS dream. Most of us will be inclined to
agree to " doubt " with the Bishop.

How THIS STATE STANDS.

The Republicans carry only IA out of lo2 coun.
ties!
Only three counties remain to be heard
from, viz: Clark. Massac, and Pope. By
returns from three, FIRST known and off
cially reported yesterday, the Farmers gain
two, viz. Cumberland and Jasper; and
the Democrats one, viz: Hardin. These
additions increase the rumber of Farmers
counties to ffty-three, and of Democratic
counties to nineteen. The number of Re
publican counties stands at fourteen, and
of Independent at thirteen, as previously
given
Official returns have now been received
from seventy eight counties, the aggregate
vote in which is 220,560. The whole vot.
of I02 counties, in the county elections O
1871, when, also, there happened to be
Congressman to elect for the State a
large, was 253, s43. The returns thus ia
received justify estimates of nearly $500
as the total vote this year, which is 100,
900 more than in the corresponding cleo
ton of 1871. The increase in votes is at
tributed to the greater interest of the peo
pie in the new issues, ..--.
