THOMAS CROMWELL.

DIR. LORD ON THE ENGLISH REFoRMERs AND
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH IN ENGLAND
DIR. Lord delivered the twelfth lecture in the histor
ical course at Chickering Hall yesterday before large
audience. The subject of his lecture was the ENG
lish Reformers," of whom Thomas Cromwell Henry
Wills distinguished Minister. taken a
type DR.. Lord alluded in a casual way to Cardinal
wolsey and Sir Thomas Moore, who were the imme-
diate predecessors Of Thomas Cromwell. When
Cromwell first entered the service of Henry he
a man Of mature years. He had been q common
soldier and wanderer and latterly merchant. His
fortune was made by q stroke of sagacity. Henry
wanted to get rid of Catherine, and the
Pope would not grant him divorce. Crom-
well cut the gordian knot by telling him
to make himself the head of the Church and settle
the affair to suit himself. This bold ground to
take and would array the whole Catholic Church
against him, but Henry willing to run this risk
tor the sake of the woman he loveu. Cromwell
farseeing statesman and desired ecclesiastical re-
form. He would make the clergy dependent on the
clergy they were so idle, so sensual so gluttonous.
Thomas Cranmer about this time appeared upon the
and advised the King to appeal to the univers
ties. Henry had determined to put away his wife
and only wanted a pretext for SO doing. Here DR..
Lord went out OF the course of his lecture to say
that Mr.. Froude in dealing with this chapter of Eng
iish history had set aside truth and right, that he
was hero worshipper and that that detracted from
his value as historian. 1t made his books lvelier.
and for that reason they sold to greater advantage.
but he had better be dry than false.
Cromwell prepared the way for the Reformation
in England by breaking up the inconsistencies They
longer needed; universities had taken their
place. They had become "dens of idleness and
drained money from the King, and they were nests
of unclean birds. The monasteries founded by
saints more but We're inhabited by impos-
tors cheats vagabonds, seducers of women, hangers
of taverns, nuisances pests and protectories of
thieves and larOtS. There in
monasteries than Mohammed was allowed wives"
This the state of the religious houses, he
tinued, when Henry VIu was King. No wonder
that Cromwell should ask for their abolish
ment and so, after deliberation. the Lords and
Commons declared that all should be swept away
that had not an income of f200 year. The next
Parliament completed the work. Monastic lands
were confscated and the money given to the King.
Henry did not keep the lands, but gave them to
those who supported the throne and were loyal to
the government. The fall Of Cromwell came through
the unfortunate marriage of the King to Anne of
Gives. He deceived the King in vital point when
he palmed of wife upon him who had neither
beauty accomplishments to recommend her. He
meant to do service to the country. but his means
were unfair and foolish. Henry now hated him and
soon made cause for quarrel. He was seized, aud
in eighteen days after his arrest was beheaded.

and special committee of fifty was appointed. The
next step the organization some months later
of the association il now exists. AT the
April session of the Legislature in 1870 an
act was passed incorporating the museum 'for the
purpose of furnishing popular instruction ana
recreation The constitution adopted at the first
annual meeting of the Board of Trustees in May lin
tied the membership to $50. gift or $1,000 consti-
tuted the donor a patron. one OF $500 fellow IN
perpetuity and of $500 member for life. In
the year 1871 the Department of Parks was author
lied by the Legislature to raise s5oOOOO for
the purpose OF erecting building in Central
Park to be used for the purposes of the museum.
month or two before this the trustees had secured
valuable collection of paintings representing sew
eral European schools and it was deemed necessary
to obtain temporary quarters. No. 6Sl Firth avenue
was accordingly rented but had to be abandoned two
years later to find accommodations for the Di Cesnoa
collection. The Douglass mansion was leased in
May, 1873, for term or hve years, at an annual
rental of $4,000 and taxes amounting to $1,000
total of $1,000 year. On the expiration of
the lease in 1878. it was renewed for one
year at $4,000 without the taxes. The
time expires the 1st of May and the building will
have to be abandoned by that date. Mr.. Johnston
says that it would be well If it could have been re-
tanned three years longer when the location in Cen
trail Park will be less remote from the centre OF the
town. The most valuable feature OF the museum is
the Di Cesnoa collection. which was completed in
March, 1878. by the opening OF the cases containing
the Cypriote antiquities not heretofore exhibited
The Prime collection of European porcelains aud
the Avery collection of Orientals are also very rare
In addition to these is the McCallum collection or
laces recently returned from Boston and on exhibi
ton last night. The attractiveness OF the museum
greatly increased in the winter of 1s777s by the
Casteani collection. the loss of which, owing to in
ability to purchase it, universally regretted.
The work of packing will begin to-day and the new
museum in Central Park will not be opened till next
fall
Mr. Johnston has been tho only president of the
Museum. and General Di Cesnola has been for some
time secretary Among the original vice presidents
