refused to ordain one preacher unless he would for
swear tobacco. It is only claimed that one-fifth of
this body's ministers (like one-thirtieth of those of
the establishment) ape total abstainers from wine
London Daily News tells us that “the custom
of not using the prayer for the High Court of Par
liament is becoming very general among the High
Church clergy. A layrpan has called the Bishop of
London’s attention to the constant [Omission of-ihe
prayer at St. John’s, Hammersmith, at the morning
service, and has received a most satisfactory reply.”

The Eastern {High] .Church Association, recently
resolved that a,memorial, be,jirqsf n’ted tp the_ Arch

There are towns in.the North where, twenty years
ago, six strong Methodist churches existed, but
where one has now enough to do in holding its own,
and that mainly because of the new life in the Pres

State Endowments in Iceland. —The Rev. Dr.
McCosh, ot Queen’s pojlege, Belfasf, recently made
some remarks at Avohinblae, Scotland. From what,
he has seen ini Continental countries 'and ’also' in
the United Eihgdojri; he! is convinced (bat it is' not
the strength of Roriraii,) Catholicism; Which lis ,the.
great obstacle to the spread of, Gospel,truth, but the,
weakness of Protestantism.’ In the, Protestant
countries on the Cbntinetit hp found it in fetters to
the State, and until these Were removed, it could
never successfully, contend with Romanism and ra
tionalism. After ipagsing a,high eulogium on the
energy, zeal; and piety of tfte Americrn Presbyte
rians, the Rev. Doctor expressed It' is Jftis belief,
from what he had learned in conversation withemi
nent statesmen in London, thatwilhinithenextyear
or two the proposal would be made iathe House of
Commons to end>w Romish priesthood iri Ire
land [in return for the support given Fenian
ism, and to allay the disflbnteht now prevalent there.]
It was, he added, the duty of all to be prepared to
oppose that proposal; and he:thought,the time had
fully come when State endowriie'nts sfipujft be. with
drawn from the Establibhrid Church oflrfeland arid
from Presbyterianism in that'eountry, as*the'solu
tion of the Irish difficulty was the abolition of all
endowments and the setting free the Gospel of- Christ
from the trammelsof State interference and control..
The Irish Presbyterian Churph was
■the work of Presbyterian Union, and i.t fwould jbe.
sad to see her divided again on the issue which has'
broken up the Reformed Church of France. Sotne
Presbyterians say with Dr. McCosh and Hall tftftt
they will sooner surrender th&'Regium DonUmari’d
join the other dissenters inoverth rowing all endow-,
meuts, than accept, it, in common with Romish
priests: others say to give upthe ßegium : fionum will
be fatal to the prosperity of the. Church. The con

Sunday School Convention in Paris:—At the

chapel of the Oratqjre, during three successive eve

THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 186.51.
fitly years ago, but even now more than half the
Protestant children do not know what they are; and
some conservative pastors prefer, perhaps wisely,
the old-fashioned system of pastoral catecliization.
The laxity of Sabbath observance, even among Pro
testants, makes it hard to get teachers The Cen
tral Society of Sabbath Schools, Of which M. Pau
mier is at the head, employs agents, who go from
church to church, from presbytery to presbytery, to
awaken the good-will of the pastors, to stimulate
the believing people, to solicit subscriptions, aud to
organize schools.
In the Exposition, at the distribution,pf awards
on the Ist of July, several Protestant societies re
ceived awards. The “Society for the Promotion Of
