THE GERMAN AND DUTCH ScHIsMs.-The
official account of the " transactions of the
fifth synod of the 'Old- catholics of the Ger
man Empire" has been lately published. Ao-
cording to it the statistical condition of the
congregations and the clergy adheripg to the
schism is not essentially altered since last year.
1t gives, in connection with the Celib acy
Qaestion, letter from the Jansepist Aroh-
bishop Heykamp, of Utrecht, TO Bishop Rein
kens, written before the Synod was held. In
this letter the fear is expressed that if the pro-
posal to abolish compulsory celibscy ia adopt
ed, the Jansensts may see themselves COM
PEELED to withdraw fjom communion with
the Old-Catholics. But they seem to have
thonght better of it; perhaps they were un-
willing to give mp even the little foothold
which this connection gave them. Lately, the
Jansenist Archbishop has sent Deacon Sprut
to assist Bishop Reinkans at confirmation in
Dusseldorf, and has assured him, through this
envoy, that, after repeated deliberations, he
and his Jsnsenst fellow Bishop had come to
the conclusion that it was not necessary to
break off communion on account of the change
in discipline on the matter of celibacy.

Il HEROIC RESCUE.

The Melbourne correspondent of the London
Times gives the following account of q heroic
and romantic rescue from drowning of Dub.
lin young lady, passenger in the i'll fated
ship Loch Ard:
at daybreak on the 1st of June the iron ship
Loch Ard, bound from Dublin for Melbourne,
ran ashore on the rocks twenty seven miles
west OF Cape Otway, and only two Of her Drew
and passengers reached the shore alive. Where
the vessel struck, high cliffs rise straight from
the water edge, and it lie only in the narrow
gorges between them that q landing can be
made under the most favorable conditions.
The Loch Ard was far out of her reckoning.
and the error was not discovered till she wa
close under the shore. Then the anchors were
let go, but would not hold. An attempt WAS
made to get sail upon her, but before this
could be done she struck heavily, and within
CSn minutes went down. The captain remain
SO H3 az his post and did what he could to save
1 io The boats, as usuRl, were not ready for
iaunening, and none left the ship. Life buoys

.LEVVERRIER'S WONDERFUL DLSCOT-
ERIES.
DISCOJ-
London Regiater.

| London Regiater
M. Leverrier, the dscoverer of the reno
| test of all the planets in the solar system,
is now seen posthumously, alas - to
have been right in his confident assertion
| that the existence of the nearest of all the
planets to the sun would eventually be de-
| monstrated. What was rendered visible
to obeervant astronomers at the time of the
late solar eclipse has made good, thus
| again, his daring assertion. Urban Le-
verrier, in 1876, by his marvellous powers
of calculation, made clear to himself, and
afterwards to the whole scientific world,
the existence of vast orb, hitherto unsus-
pected, rolling through space at the stnpen-
dous distance from the sun of 100000 600
miles! Putting his finger upon the chart
of the heavens, he declared, two and thirty
years ago, that, at given moment, on q
certain night, if any one looked in that
direction through the tube of sufficiently
powerful telescope, there, at that/Precise
point, this enormous but hardly conceiv-
able remote planet woud|be seen. And
there, accordingly, at/that point, at that
moment on the night he had indicated,
human eyes beheld for the first time what
is now known as the planet Neptune.
And now, again posthumously - he is
proved to have been as right as he was in
regard to that extra uranian planet of
Neptune, in regard to the ra-mercurial
planet of Vulcan, the long looked for Vul-
can of Lescarbauit. While Neptune is dis
tant from the sun, as we have said, by
l ,s00, ,00O, 900 miles, Vulcan cannot be fur
ther removed from the centre of our sys-
tenn than IS 600. 600. The discovery of the
two extreme units of the solar system by
one aud the same astronomer is assuredly
q doubly marvellous atteststion of his sur
passing genius as a mathematician. Le.
verrier, combining together several astro-
mical observations, considered 1t exceed
ingly probable that Vulcan really existed,
and that it followed particular path.
NJ. Gaillot, director of the "Bureau des
Calculs," has compared very recently the
observed position of Watson's star with the |
position which Vulcan should have accord !
ing to the four orbits determined by Lever |
rier. And he has found that one of these |
orbits agrees fairly (Gssez bieH) with the |
position of the body observed on the 29th |
of July. He has even calculated the posi-
tion of the planet for the beginning of Au
gust. 1t would be inferred from this that
the planet would be at it's greatest distance
on the eastern side of the sun (sbout
eighteen sun.breadths from bim) on or
about the Both of August, and that a tran
sit may possibly occur on or about the llth
of this present month of September

He will give rest to the world.weary brain,
Rest fer thy wear mess, joy for thy pain.
He hath drank deeply the chalice of woe,
Borne for thee sorrow, scorn, insult and bow;
Died for thy sins upon Calvarys steep;-

Clouds o'eIshsdow the light of thy day;

Sorrows are only the buds Of fair fowers;
Buds that shall bloom In the kingdom of life.
After the burden and after the strife.
Shrink not away from tho bitterest pain.

Go not aside from the thorn covered road
Here thou shall lay down thy wearisome load

congregation itself, the other to be sent to the
