WHAT SHOWS UNITY.

'It is always advantage TO the cause
of Christian unity" says the New York
Churchman P. Ed when religious bodies
who call themselves by different names
strike the same note in prayer and praise
on the same day or during the same sea-
son. They thus reveal the existence of ra-
dical sympathies of which they them
selves even may have been hitherto ignor-
ant. In this connection it is highly signi-
icant that the church observance OF the
coming Lent is TO be responded to by a
series of professedly Lenton rervices in
several New York and Brooklyn congre-
cations who do not profess to follow the
Boog Of Common Prayer, and have no
obligation to do so. This fact reflects
and suggests many reflections. 1t shows,
in the first place, that all prejudices
against the Catholic season of self denial
self examination and renewed religious
devotion are gradually dying away, and
that the barriers which these prejudices
rear between different members in the
universal church of the baptized are be-
coming gradually removed. This is Of it
self a most important advance in unani-
nifty and toward unity. It establishes be-
tween different religious bodies an es-
sential harmony, real, if only partial, in
the wide field of religious devotion and
worship" -4

Major General Middleton, Who Helped
Suppress the RieI Rebellion

LONDON. Jan. 25.-Maj. Gen. Frederick
Dobson Middleton keeper of the crown Jew
the part taken in suppressing the Riel re-
bellion.
Mai. Gen. Frederick ID. Middleton was
the third son Of the late Maj Gen. Charles
Middleton, of the English army. He was
educated at the Royal Military College,
Sandhurst, England, and obtained his first
commission as ensign on Dec. 30, 1872 He
saw his .Irst active service in New Zealand,
where some of the chiefs who had signed
treaty accepting English protection and
sovereignty in 1876, had in 1874 broken out
in instruction and destroyed an English
settlement on the south coast. IT was in
1876 that the general, then an ensign, ar
rived on the scene, and in a short time aft
erward took part in the attack on Wan
quin. After the close of the war in 1s4S
he was sent TO India, where he served dur
ing the Lenthal rebellion During the
time Of the Sepoy rebellion of 1s57-5s Gen
eral Middleton particularly distinguished
himself. In the famous expedition for the
relief of Lucknow he served as orderly
officer to General Franks and took Dart in
the action at Suthorpore and in the many
engagements which occurred during the adj
vance. In the week of hard fighting which
preceded the capture of the city General
Middleton, who had become an aid-de-
camp to General Lugafd. was conspicuous
for bravery, and for his gallant conduct at
the storming of Banks House and the Mon
tiniere he was rewarded with the brevet of
major. Lucknow was in the possession of
the British on the 18th of March. but of
ficers We're allowed little rest, and on the
18th of the next month, April the general
then captain and a staff officer TO Sir Ed

skirmish with the rebels at Agemghur
where for the personal bravery he displayed
and for his heroic conduct IN risSing his
own life TO save those of comrades he was
recommended by General Lugard 10 Lord
Clyde for the Victoria cross. Lord clyde
refused the recommendation on the ground
that Middleton was on the personal staff
at the time. General Middleton served
throughout the mutiny and was many
times specially mentioned in dispatches In

to Canada as major Of the Twenty-nnth
Regiment The station of the corps was at
