more attention. Such protests as that OF the
Rav. Charles Stirling. Vicar OF New Maiden.
who resigned this week. nre not uncommon.
In his letter OF resignation to the Bishop OF
Rochester he says: 1T is impossible for mo
to retain my connection with tho Established
Church as she now is. with Popery taught by
her clergymen. on every hand her communion
tables turned into affairs. her ministers into
sacrificing priests. her churches into mass
houses. and with auricular confession incul-
Gated. practised. and whore possible enforced.
All this Is done under tho eyes. with the
knowledge. and under the protection OF the
Bishops. who FIRST introduce tho wolves in

them whom the flock demonstrates.
MY Lord. I have been for forty ono years a
plain English clergyman. I must decline now

Tho Anarchists engaged Trafalgar square
for to- morrow afternoon to hold meeting OF
protest against the extradition OF dynamiter
Francois OF Paris. There was some appre-
hsneion lest their incendiary talk might bring
UPON them the angry assaults OF the specta-
tors who would. no doubt. attend in large
numbers out Of curiosity. The projectors OF
