STURGEON wRITE A SECOND LETTER AND
ExPREssEs HIS FEAR OF THE IRISH
CATHOLIC CHURCH.
London, Juae ga hundred non-con-
formlst ministers OF Derby and Not
bingham have signed an address of con-
hdence IN Gladstone's Irish policy. Rev.
Spurgeon, mi of the ~signers, has written
a second letter in which he asks If it is
impossible for those DESTROYS of the well
fare OF Ireland and the unity of the EN-.
pirs to devise "a more acceptable scheme.
Il cannot" says Spurgeon, "look for
ward with complacency upon the posi-
billty OF the Ulsterines being abandoned
and OF an established Irish Catholic
church, yet these were by no means the
greatest events we forsee in the near
future should the suggested policy be-
come a fact.n
