While admitting, in the course of some
after-dinner observations to which he
gave utterances on Thursday evening at
Ipswich, with genial frankness truly
refreshing in one of his cloth. that clergy
men are sometimes animated by human
passions, liable to error and even but
poorly off for brains, the Rev Francis
Maude expressed his conviction that his
professional brethren were, on the whole
too miserably paid for their services to
turn out what he automatically termed
"a superior article" The church, ac-
cording to Mr.. Maude, is the worst re-
muneratcd profession in the land, and,
as he unhestatingly confessed, his own
experience of an ecclesiastical career
has been such as to convince him that as
far as the good things of this world are
concerned it is much better for a Young
man starting in life to become butcher
or baker than Il parsOn. 1t is unqueS-
tionably true that the subordinate clergy
Of the Established Church are, as a rule,
underpaid in proportion to the cost of
their educational preparation for holy
orders, and possibly to their private an
tecedents, although their remuneration
will be found to compare favorably with
that of the working priesthood in con-
tinental countries. Nine English clergy
men out of ten are foredoomed, when
they enter the church, to live and to die
in comparative poverty; but they are
equally certain of welding considerable
power and of enjoying both prestige
and precedence, socially speaking, to
very appreciable extent. What is the
drawing-room status of an attorneys
clerk or DOCTORS assistant compared to
that of curate? In the world, Mr..
Maude must remember, only a very few
and those rather by the accident of
birth than by professional assiduitv-
can have everything that appears desir
able to human ambition at one and the
same time. If, as the incumbent of
Holy Trinity asserts, ministers of re-
hglon do not nowadays occupy that
strong ground which they formerly held,
1t is due to other and mightier causes
than their cheapness as a marketable
commodity. The position of the CLERGY
like that of every mundane institution
Is liable to change, and must follow the
bent OF the age. Every profession has

GRANDP1'S CHRISTMAS.

In his great cushioned chair by the fender
An old man sits dreaming tonight.
His withered hands, licked by the tender
Warm rays of the red anthracite,
Are folded before him, all listless;
His dim eyes are fixed on the blaze,
While over him sweeps the resistless
Flood tide of old days.
He hears not the mirth in the hallway,
He hears not the sounds of good cheer,
That through the old homestead ring Away
In the glad Christmas time of the year.
He heeds not the chime of sweet voices
As the last gifts are hung on the tree.
In long vanished day he rejoices-
In his lost used to be.
He has gone back across dead Decembers,
To his chdhOodS fair land of delight;
And his mothers sweet smile he remembers
AS he hangs up his stocking at night.
He remembers the dream-hannted slumber
All broken and restless because
OF the visions that came without number
OF dear Santa Claus.
Again, in his manhoods beginning,
He sees himself thrown on the world,
And into the vortex of SHINING
By pleasures strong arms he is hurled.
He hears the sweet Christmas bells ringing,
Repent We, repent We, and pray"
But he joins with his comrades in singing
a Bacchanal lay.
Again, he stands under the holly,
With blushing face lifted to his;
For love has been stronger than folly,
And has turned him from vice unto bliss;
And the whole world is lit with new glory
As the sweet VOWS are uttered again,
While the Christmas bells tells the old story
Of peace unto men.
Again. with his little brood round him,
He sits by the fair mother-wite;
He knows that the ANGLES have crowned him
With the truest, best riches of life;
And the hearts of the children, untroubled,
Are filled with the gay ChriStmaS-tide;
And the gifts for sweet Maudie are doubled,
lis her birthday, beside.
Again. he leans over the shrOuded
Still form of the mother and wife;
Very lonely the way seems, and clOuded,
As he looks down the vista of life.
With the sweet Christmas chimes there is
blended
The knell Cor a life that is done.
And he knows that his joys are all ended
And his waiting begun.
So long have the years been-so lonely
As he counts them by Christmases gone.
~ am homesick," he murmurs-" if only
The Angel would lead the way on
l am cOld--in this chill winter weather.
Why, Maudie dear, where have you been?
And you, too, sweet wife-and together

The children ran from the hallway:
&" We're you calling us, grandpa they said
Then shrank, with that fear that comes Away
When young eyes look their first on the dead
The freedom so longed for is given

With grandma, this year."
