THE RELIGIOUS QUESTION IN
GERMANY.

In a long address, filling an entire supple
ment sheet of the Cologne Gazette, the Central
Committee Of the Ola Catholic Church in
Northern Germany exhort those who share
their opinions at the present critical point of
time openly to avow the same, in order to faoi-
litate the task of the German Government in
combating UItramontane pretensions, and TO
show the world to what extent true Catholicism,
untainted with the superstition Of infallibiIity.
still exists in Germany The committee add
that they have hitherto scrupled to urge for
NAL separation from the Ultram0ntanes, but
they feel that the time is come when an open
declaration of opinion should be made. The
journal dcs DebatS, speaking of the article pub
lished in the NORTH German Gazette, says -
owe do rot thoroughly understand its meaning.
We have no occasion to commence a campaign
against the Roman Church, for the absolute
submission of the French clergy to the Pope
does not cause them 10 forgot their duty to
their country, and we have no desire to NEEDLE
in Germany's religious qualrels." 1t has been
stated that the Imprisonment of Archbishop
Ledochovski, SO long threatened, is at last
about to be carried out. The Archbishop has
been finally summoned to pay the sum of 9, 500
thalers to which his various fines now in the
aggregate amount. There being nothing left
in his possession to diStrain after the bailiff's
earlier visits, the only alternative is imprison-
ment. LII is scarcely credible that the prelate
will pay. The Colcgne Gazette states Frank
fort-on- the-O Oder to have been fixed upon as the
place of his confinement. The late incident
in the House of Deputies has made a great
stir throughout the country, increasing the gen.
eral irritation against the UItramontanes, who
ere accused of w%antonly pursuing a policy of
personal defamation. Qongratulatory letters
and kilograms have been received by Prince
Bismark from all parts of Germany, and nota-
bly, from the South, where the Catholic ele-
ment prevails.

POPULAR EDUCATION IN ENGLAND.
IRON the Times.)

NFToW Ho AtHsJ
The Elementary Education Act 0. 1870 will
be quoted hereafter as one Of the most success
fnl and most audacious steps in the course Of
modern progress. The Act has been in opera
ton for a little more than three years, and it
has already revolutionized our educational
IDEAS and practice. Before it became law, the
elementary schools of England were provided
and maintained chiefly by the zeal and bounty
of individuals, and were confassedIy far below
the number which the country needed. The
attendance of the scholars was wholly volun-
tary. parent might permit his children to
grow up to mans estate in absolute ignorance,
or might even forbid them to attend any place
of education, and no one could interfere to re-
medy his neglect or wilfulness. We had grown
accustomed from long habit to these accepted
incidents of "voluntaryism." The degree of
success which had been secured under such
conditions was fOndIy adduced as one instance
among many of our capacity for spontaneous
action, while the fathers absolute right over
his cbildren's training seemed to follow as a
necessary consequence from orr general doc
trine of Individual liberty and our jealous limi-
tation of every form of Government interior
ence. The Education Act of 1870 has done
much to upset our ideas on both these points.
It has provided means for a supply of schools
at the public charge all over the country wher-
ever schools are needed and it has authorized
its local Boards to compel the attendance of all
children who are not shown to be under pro-
per instruction. To attain these objects an
enormous and complex machinery has been set
in motion, and with the most complete possible
results. The Act has not, of course, had time
enough to do all or nearly all of which it is
capable. Rather the whole work is to be con-
sidered as Just commenced. It may be thought
enough, meanwhile, that We have seen already
large additions made to the school aocommoda-

other person than the King himself, and de-
clared that he must persist in carrying out his
plan Of marching into Coomassie.
Sir Garnet WolseIey had reached a point of
