Appropriation Bill.

The Centennial Appropriation Bill
was discussed in the House of Repre-
sentatives yesterday with some note
worthy results. From the discussion,
and especially from the speech of Mr..
Waddell, of North Carolina, it ap-
pears that the debate on the amnesty
question has not alienated the South
from the Centennial, and that the
Southern people are still anxious to
cast the mantle of Oblivion over the
past. This is well, and we hope the
spirit of the North Carolina Represen-
tative will be emulated by his COL
leagues from the South and reciprocal
ted by those from the North. The
high constitutional ground assumed
by Mr.. Willis, of this city, needs no
serious argument, and his speech can
only be regarded as the qualification
of the natural desire of a young Con-
gresham to make himself heard. In
so far as it was necessary to answer
the positions assumed by Mr.. Willis
1t was done by Mr.. Hewitt, his col
league. The subject will be still fur
ther discussed before it is acted upon
in Committee of the Whole.-N. Y

Mr.. Gladstone and the Ritualist Controversy.

To revised reprint of two articles
which appeared in the Contemporary
Revieso, the firstertitled "Ritual and
Ritualism," in October, 1874, and the
second, "Is the Church of England
Worth Preserving ?" in July, 1875, Mr..
Gladstone has prefixed an observation
on single point, that of attaching
doctrinal significance to external usa-
ges. He says: ~ have nowhere ques-
toned that there are outward usages
which may and must be of doctrinal
significance. My proposition is sim
ply this, that where external usages
have become subjects of contention,
and that contention is carried to issue
in Courts of law, the field should not
be unnecessarily widened, and the usa-
ges should not be interpreted for judi
cial purposes with reference to this or
that particular dogma SO long, and of
course only so long, as it naturally and
unconstrainedly bears some sense not
entailing such consequence. I am
afraid that many in their zeal for the
Church forget Christ, and in main
tanning the rights of the clergy forget
the rights of the laity, who are, as
well as the clergy, priests unto the
most high God, and who, indeed, have
as large portion of the sacrifice of
prayer and praise assigned to them in
the Prayer-book as the clergy.n

yet, it is not known whether dementia
in his case will be permanent or tran

business-a reverse that will perhaps
weigh quite heavily on creditor, if
he shall happen to know the circum-
stance, and could, by any means have
