JAMES FREEMAN CLARKE.
Few lives have had so great range
and few have had such sustained anc
fructitying influence. Preacher, poet
teacher, author, reformer, citizen
saint, he was born in the very dawn Of
the Unitarian movement in New
England. On him more than any
single man seemed to fall the mantle OF
Charming. 1t was his great work tx
carry the gospel of the Fatherhood OF
| God and the Brotherhood of Man to
the people. This he did unremittingly
with his voice, but to far wiser audi
ence through his pen. Next to Chan
ming no Unitarian writer has been so
much read in this country. His mind
was active, his culture rich, his sympa.
thies broad, his character sanity. He
was the soul of candor, and he followed
truth with an eye blurred by neither
prejudice nor passion. Such q soul
could only live in the air of freedom :;
and the great force of his life was spent
in seeking to invest others with the
freedom, moral, intellectual, religious,
and political, which he enjoyed him
self, and in which he found scope for
his noblest powers. He helped to break
the letters of the slave. He was in the
very van of those who labored for the
advancement of women. The last piece
that we published in this paper from
his pen was long and earnest argu-
ment for her enfranchisement. He
was reformer in politics, and leader
and promoter of the great humanitarian
movements of his day. His name will
be written with those of Chanting,
Parker, and Emerson, with Garrison,
Phillips, and May.-Christiae Register.
THE EVANGELICAL ALLIANCE AND THE
CAR.
The secretaries of the Evangelical Al
lance have communicated to the press
the result of the appeal of the British
and foreign branches of the alliance to
the Gear with reference to religious per-
secution of the Lutheran Christians in
the Baltic provinces of Russia, The
memorial to the Emperor was placed in
his hands during his visit to Denmark
last autumn. In reply the Ober-Pr
cureur of the Holy Synod of the Greek
church has communicated to the au-
thorities of the alliance statement set.
ting forth the views of the Greek church
on the subject of religious liberty. The
burden of this document is that no dis
tinction of race or religion is made be-
tween the subjects of the Gear; and that
"heterodo1 faiths" enjoy in Russia
greater liberty than any other country
in Europe; but that liberty does not in
clude an absolute right to unlimited
and that it is the sacred
duty of Russia TO keep from the Ortho-
dox church all that can menace her
security. Catholicism in Poland has
been and is the enemy of orthodoxy.

uses the banner of religion to mask
political projects, by opposing spiritual
union with the mother country. Never

orthodox church to be robbed of her
