Ritualism a Broad Church to a complaint
against the omission of the Athan4sian Greed;
aud a Low.Church against a mutllatlon OF the
Baptismal Service. That is bad enough to be-
. ia with. Next, it greatly diminishes the ex.
pense and increases the facilities of enforcing
the Rubrical law Of the Church as it is, without
revision or reform. And that is a greater mis-
chief still. The existing law it is at least so cum
brous and expensive, that is not a good instru-
ment in the hands of those who would enforce
obsolete rubrics. The proposed Bill would be
such an instrument. Hence, in spite of al
the apologies for the Bill as a 6 very little one"
We believe aud hope that it will meet with
scant favour in the House of Commons.
The latest kilograms from Calcutta on the
Famine are all favourable, the rains being still
ample, but the latest letters are not, their gen.
eral drift is that relief equals famine, but that
there can be 10 security until the September
rains have fallen, and have been found suiti-
cient. Oar own Correspondent, who ha, been
always on the Government side, estimates the
Flmiae deaths up to May 251h at 1000, a
number which, if correct, is less than one for
every ten villages examined reported on, and
relieved,-an astounding success, when COM
pared with the result Of our operations IN Ire
land. The total of such villages IS $4,000.
Both be and Mr.. Charles Bernard, whose letter

President Grant has signed a curious and
rather clever Currency Bill. All further issue
of greeubacks is to cease, nd specie payment
is to be resumed in 1876, but the National
Banks are allowed to Issue as many notes as
they have National Debt bouds in their cellars,
l. is aft med that this is an Ioaation Bill, and
that the President has signed it because tho
speedy return to cash payments will increase
lis chance Of re-eIe ton 10 1876, but we doubt
that greatly. General Grant is really we be-
lieve, convinced that paper is not money, even
when it will hpa' at par, and attends that in
1876 every note shpll be convertible at call.
Meanwhile, it the law is obeyed, the risk of
issue viii be shght,-only the difference be-
tween The actual and nominal value of the United
Stltes bonds. We are not sure, till We see the
Bill, that it is even this, as non-Iuhationists
voted for the Bill.

ExCrTEMENT ON RAILROAD TRAIN-A

folk accommodation train, which leaves Pc
tershurg daily at noon, report that the Ia

rowly escaped being thrown over the Apo
mattoX bridge into the river below.
The train had just left the depot, and was
proceeding over the bridge at rate Of about
four or five miles per hour. Suddenly seye-
raj of the passengers were startled by the
ominous humping and bouncing of the car,
which convinced them at once that the car
had Jumped the track" Major William
+. Tapner, OF this city, who was in the car,
and one of the first to discover the accident,
with great presence of mind and promptness
gave the beIlcord steady pull, the engi-
neer whistled down brakes, and in moment
more the train came to stand-stil but that
moment will be ever remembered by all who
were on board.
Upon examining the bridge and the car, it
was found that the wheels of the front truck
had not only run off the track, but two ofthe
wheels were upon the very edge of the bridge,
and one revolution more and the coach would
probably have been thrown into the swollen
and muddy river below. Several of the
cross-ties We're cut in two. 1t was found
impossible to put the car back upon the track
without considerable delay, and 30 another
coach was gotten and the train came on to

OPERAS FOR THE LEE MEMORIAL FcND."-
These operas which have recently been given
by some of our best amateurs were not got
ten up, as some suppose, for the new Epls,,

Lee was a yestryman in the church, and It IS
understood that the edfice will be 10 some
extent in memory of that great man. The
Rev. S. Pendletop, rector of the church, has
written to a friend in this city TO say that the
operas were not in aid of his church. How

wishes of all the friends of General Lee, he
could not accept funds which are raised by
performances which are diSallowed by the
canonS of the Episcopal Church.
