Canadian political circles are stirred by tho
publication in tho Toronto Globe Of the corre-
spondeuoe between the Dominion Government
and the two rival Pacific Railroads-the CANADA
Pacific and the Inter- Oceanic. This correspond
enca filed Heyon columns OF the Globe, and
1t 1s said that it's disclosures will overthrow tho
Macdonald Ministry. The giBt Of it appears to
be that the Government, aftor having unRuo-
csefully besought tho two Companies to
unite, awarded tho building contract to
tho Canada Paclfo. This action, tho Directors
Of the unsuccessful road, tho Inter- Oceanic,
say, throws the transoontinental highway Of
Canada into tho American hands OF tho Northern
Poetic, which rules the Canada Pacific, and will
absorb the Asiatio trade OF British North Amer
lea, besides controlling communication between
the colonies Oh the Paciao and those On tho
Atlantic.

CHURCH AND STATE,


The advooates Of the religious amendment OF
tho Constitution Of tla United stateH are now
holding thoir Tenth Annual Convention in New
York, As far rs the movement to SECURE tho
recognition Of God IN tho Constitution is con-
cerned, tho Convention has thrown no now light
upon the subj and according to tho admissions
Of tho annual report, no proEroaa has boon mado
during tho year. Both tho action and arguments
Of tho Convention are simply ropotitions Of what
has been done nany times before; but this Con-
yention haa gone step further than its predo-
coBsors, In fayp1ing a movement to mako
tho Constitutions . Of the Unltel states
ard Of tho several statos acknowledge
Christianity, to tho exclusion Of what its NOM
bera denominato inhdeIity, atheism, Judaism,
and paganlsm. In order to accomplish this, q
part Of the third section, Article 0, providing
that no rolgtous test shall ever be required sa 4
qualification to any Office or public trust under
the United States, and the first amendment,
which still further strengthens this provision, by
declaring that Congress- shall mako no law ro-
Bpectiug IN establishment Of rcligion Or prohib.
tting tho free exorclso thereof must be OK
pungod from tho Constitution, and In
their stead It must acknowledge Chris.
