of worship fails to seat the summer con-

the hrst OF all Methodist Conferences
throughout the world, considerable i'm
portance is attached to its proceedings,
and its President is considered one of the
most notable, important, and influential
ecclesiastics in England. The Rev. Chas.
Garrett, of Liverpool, was elected Pres
ident by considerable majority. He is
not so well known as some of his prede-
cessors, nor so scholarly or cultured, but
as temperance worker and advocate,
and as an earnest, successful preacher and
pastor, he is the peer of any of them, and
has fully earned the position to which ne
has been called The Bishop of Liver
pool sent him a letter of congratulation
after his election, and so did the Presby-
terian and Congregational ministers OF
the same town. These facts show that
he is held in high regard outside his own
Church. 1t is the first time that Bishop
of the Establishment congratulated non
Episcopal clergyman. DIR. Ryle is sound
y evangelical, but he does not forget that
he is prelate of the national Church, and
although his letter to Mr.. Garrett was
kind and gracious, it was little patron
izing.
. Much dissatisfaction was felt by lead
ing members Of the Conference with the
probationers who had served their four
years on trial and were about to be or
dained. Their answering at the exami-
nation, to which all probationers are sub
lect before ordination, was very deficient.
Their knowledge of Holy Scripture dis
appointed the examiners. They knew
almost nothing of the Wesleyan stan
dards. If they had been examined in
some of the Homiletical Monthlies that
are published they would have answered
more satisfactorily. Do these rnonthlies
contribute to the efficiency of the Protes-
tant pul pit or otherwise? The phrase
Protestant pull pit | mean to include all
branches OF Professionalism. l fear their
influence is not altogether beneficial

The eschewal of doctrine by minister

Doctrine aglow with heart warmth, zeal,

Inc ponClcal situation Of Ireland does
not seem to improve much, although out
RACES have diminished during the past
few weeks, no murders have been report-

now when thew wOuId ,,uroro J;Horo,,4
course they find their influence greatly
waned. This may turn out to the furti-
erance of the evangelization of Ireland
for no Romanists were so inaccessible to
evangelistic agencies as the Irish. They
were so because SO thoroughly priest
ridden by Uitramontane priests. If the
power OF the priests is broken the people

furnaces are in successful operation. Our
Presbytery considers that whole region a
fine opening for aggressive ministerial
labor. An effort is making to place the
four churches named, under the care of
an evangelist for the next twelve months
with the hope that a permanent, self
sustaining pastorate may be the result.
Carmel, the ultima thule of our Presby-
terry, with its communion roll of one hun

L learn, "well to do" people, and several
of them worth from thirty to fifty thou

venture upon the support of pastor.
There is wealth too in some of the other
churches named. No region in our Pres
