GREAT BRITAIN.
The Pan-Anglican Council seems to have run
iti head against a theological rock. Its Encyclical
contains the statement that Christ "died to reconcile
Itis Father to us.” One of the organs of English
i •ongrcgat-ionalism at the time scouted the statement
i,.s a figment of Mediaeval theology. In convocation
the Dean of Westminster called attention .to the fact
that the Greek Church, to whose prelates the Ency
clical was sent, regards this statement as heresy, anil
aiust regard its appearance there as an insult. He
-fir-god that one prelate had ’signed the Encyclical
witti considerable hesitation on account of itandhad
asked him to call attention to it. He declared that
in, such statement was found in the Scriptures. The-
High-Clmrch party retorted that it was implied in
Scripture, and that it was in theXXXIX Articles as
iil~o in tho Greek Liturgy of St. Janies [which is not
an orthodox one, however.] ’
Dean Alford (Dean of Canterbury) is out in the
Contemporary Review on the : " Home aspecits of the
I ;i'Union of Christendom.” ;i He denounces High
thurch exclusiveness as unscriptural and of evil ef
fect; argues well that New Testament bishops “have,
hardly any thing ip common with the Church officers
which have since bbrne that name; ” insists that the
Church “ has* no right to enforce Episcopal govern
ment as the one essentially requisite; ” declares that
to call Dissenters schismatio “ is the height of folly
and pedantry;” asserts that in piety and learning
i hoy rival if they do not surpass “Churchmpn;" con
fesses that in doctrine he is divided from them by
"the thiiinest possible partition; ” suggests that, as a
token of unity,. Christians of all denominations be
invited to special celebrations of the Lord's Supper,
"the only words heard being the Scripture narrative
of its institution, and the bread and wine being ad
ministered in silence;” and admits that the ‘‘legiti
mate corollary” of all this is a free exchange of pul
pits. The suggestion has been received with very
great cordiality by the dissenters; the. Nonconformist
urges its followers to lay aside their bitterness to the
Church as such, and a Doctor in DiVinity of the E.
P. Church seconds the motion for intercommunion.
We observe also that in the debate on the Panr
Anglican Encyclical in the convocation of the Pro
vince of Canterbury, the Dean of Westminster, re
marked on the selection, of . the Eastern Patriarchs as
ihe sole portion of Christendom io which the sympa
thy of the Primate was addressed. The Dean spe
cially lamented the omission of such sympathy to
wards tho Protestant Churches of Sweden, Germany,
and France, and particularly to the Church of Scot
land, “as our own Nonconformist brethren." . „. ;
Mr. Gladstone’s Church-rate Bill which," the
cable informs us, has passed the Commons, is in sub
stance that which he proposed last year; he would
abolish the legal liability, but keep up the existing
machinery, in order, that it may be used foro-volun
tary rate. This has long been the practice fn Lan?
casniro; the voluntary church-rate, distinguished by
being in red ink on tbe collector’s paper, is called, for
with the other parochial- rates, ana generally paid
along with them. , ’
Tue London Midnight Mission in its Annual
Report (the Eighth) for the year ending March sth,
shows that sixteen have been held and 173
poor girls rescued. The difficulty of: providing em:
ployrncnt for thoso who had occupied a higher posi
tion than domestic servants, had been met by estab
lishing the “Hope Printing-Offices and Home)”
which has been a great success as far as its limited
means will allow.
Over to Borne. —St. Mary’s Priory, Hackney,
London, is one of the Protestant Nunneries -created
to meet a want in the Established Church. Nearly
the whole Sisterhood, led by the Superior, have gone
into the Itomish Church. The Nuns wanted.to go
over in a body, dressed in their religious attire, so as
to make an offering of their dress as trophies to
Rome, that they might be “ received ” in that attire.
This was promptly prevented by a clergyman who
happened to be present. The remaining Sisters at
once elected a new Superior, and proceeded with their
work as if the distressing event had not occured.
One of the Sisters has already returned from the
Romish Sisterhood. ,
FRANCE,
The Education Controversy bbrititmes to oecu- 1
py a large share of public attention, all the arguments
oi' the Bishops in behalf of the religious trfiihirtg of
of young women being more than outweighed by thp
consideration that their training cannot be entrusted
to those whose first object must be, to, make them
slaves and tools, and who will give them neither
inoral stamina nor intellectual development, and who
will utterly unfit them for being the wives and -moth
ers of Frenchmen, by either thoroughly 'denational
izing them or making them and their children frivol
ous and sceptical. In the meantime, the public lec
ture system for young ladies is growing in favor* and

The Poor or the PopWr-Kome sets charity far
above faith as a means of salvation, and the Romish
Archbishop of Algiers has been illustrating her dog
mas. The Arabs of his diocese are dying by the hun
dred thousand of hunger. The Bishopsof the Early
and Middle Ages sold the chalice from the altar and
the ornaments from the shrines, to emancipate the
slave and feed the hungry. Their modern successor
(as he claims) Bays, when asked why he has made no
appeal for the poor Algerians: I have hesitated to
take the initiative, considering the numerous wants oj
the [Roman] Church,” etc ! 1 ! In other words he has
been prevented from asking anything for the'Arabs
from tear of diminishing "Peter’s Pence. . ,
The French Protestant Elections for members
of the Consistories have generally resulted in the de
feat of the Rationalists, with great Orthodox gams.
Iu Paris the successful candidates, Messrs, h. IJeles
sert, Thierry, Mettetal, De Triqueti, R. De Pourtales,
and Beigbeder, are all of the Orthodox school, hav
ing-received from 1512 to 1596 out of the 3016
votes oast. The Consistory have chosen to fill the
place left vacant in the Paris pastorale, by the death
of Pr. Ath. Coquerel, senior, two orthodox pastors,
M. d'HSmbres and M. Rogncn, whose places as suf
fragans will be filled by orthodox men. In other local
ities the result are various: in Tdulouse there was uo
opposition to the Orthodox ticket, and inclines none
to the Rationalist. Here there are 15,000 Protestants,
and of eight pastors six are unsound; but the Free
Church and the Methodists axe gaming ground _
The Contest between Galileans and ultra

possible. Accepting in a general way the primacy of
the Pope, the lenders of the movement continue to
acknowledge the office, while practically assigning the
narrowest bound to their obedience to the authority
of tho Pope as at present exercised. The organ of the
movement, the Examindtorc, is now in its fifth year.
It invites full and frank discussion on the claims of
Rome, and demands Reform on the basis of Holy
Scripture, -right reason and the usages of the Primi
tive Church. Its pages are full of articles written
by priests under assumed names,, aud it is. circulated
by hundreds among the Romish clergy. Two bishops
at least, those of Trevisa and Brescia have' warned
their clergy against this journal, acting under orders
received direct from Rome.
Another Veer in the Papal Weathercock ?
The Roman correspondent of the Pall Mall Gazette,
hints that Antonelli’s illness means a, more liberal
Papal policy. He writes: “Cardinal Antonelli is in
very delicate health, and has lately found himself
quite unequal to the labor and anxieties of his offi
cial duties. Conjointly with" his brother 1 he has
amassed a fortune of 60,000,000 francs, and perhaps
considers that the time he has. now arrived when he
may advantageously .seek repose. Th,e stale of his
health, indeed, and the expediency of his taking a
sea voyage, are the only reasons avowed for his re
tirement, but I believe there are also differences of
opinion between hiip and the Pope. Romans have
made a proverb 1 of the words which ’thb most reke
tidnary of the' pontiffs, Gregory XVI., angrily ad
dressed to Pius IX., when he was a cardinal— ‘ In.
casa MastaUperfini i gatti sow liberali.’. (In the house
of Mastai even the cats are liberals.) And certainly
Pius IX. seems always inclined to. hark back to his
liberal epoch.” ■ . _ ... ;
OTHER COUNTRIES.
Bohemia and Moravia— TheßeforniediChurcli
has forty-one Bohemian and.one German Church in
Bohemia, w;ho adhere to the Helvetic Confession. The)-
Lutheran Church has fifteen. German and ten Bohd
mian churches;'adhering to the'Augsburg Confession.
In Moravia the Reformed are wholly and the Luther
ans mostly Boheiniaii v .. ilii thetwocountries-the two
ChuTch.es muster 170,000 adherents in a-ipopulation of
seven millions, and of these, 50,000. speak German, and
belong to a rather higher soeialjgrade than the Bohe
mians. These Churches have suffered! much by their
isolation from the newly awakened life 6f EVangeli-,
cal 1 Christendom,land by the want 1 of'non l Sectarian
or Protestant schools, which expose them to the pro
selytizing, efforts of Rome,; .while the popular litera
ture is, tainted with)' scepticism.' Their people are.
awakening to a sense' of tbesfe fifants and an effort to
supply them. The General 1 Assembly'of the Bohe

The Danish Home Mission. Society is gaining ground
and achieving blessed results. It employs 47'colpor
teurs, mostly peasants,' several of whom are .lay
preachers; arid is winning the ear of thepedpleand the
favor of. the clergy. : Its income in 1866» wad ’£2600:
The Bible Society distributed 4650 Bibles and Testa

000 New Testaments.—The Tract Society has, distri
buted 800,000 traets.in its ten years’ operations. The
Deaconesses’ Institution' has three deafconesses and
seven on probation.—The Y. M. C. Associations are
coming into existence, >but not a power vet.—The
Danish Foreign Mission Society operates in the Pre
sidency of Madras and employs one missionary arid
three assistants. —Tb'e Daiio-Greek Missionary Society
proposes to co-operate with the ' Greek Cbiireh in
missibiV work among the Mahometans, ; ana RiiraL
Dean Blosh goes out as' their missionary. The Greeks
are'qujte cordial to the countrymen of their King.
Prussia and the Pope— The Roman Catholics
axe in great-hopes of securing the; whole .weight of
Prussian influence in behalf of Temporal I’ower of
tlie Papacy. In his speech at the last opening, of
Parliament the King said that he had the wishes of
his Roman Catholic subjects at heart, and desii;4‘d the
perfect independence and dignity of the ruler of their
Church to be preserved. A great meeting of Roman
clergy and laity took .place at .Cologne recently, at
which it was urged as a gfcmn'd of hope for the Pa
pacy .that -the, King .recognizes, the justice: ofqthe
Pope’S claims. Ail Italian despatch , says'that the
Prussian Amhassadoils in high favor at Rome, and
that, the Pope had given his consent for the oration
a Prp|estant chapel in connection with.the Embassy.

BSgb, The Capocoro Musical Society’s Concert on
the evening of the 20th ultimo 'was* such : a success
as we had anticipated, both in the character ;of the
performances and in their acceptance with the gene
ral public. The opening performance, the - Cantata
on the xxivth Psalm arranged for the Society by the
venerable Dr. Meignen, and the closing chorus, Don
zetti’s“Hail Lovely" Venice," wer,e rendered with
spirit and effect. Many of the intermediate pieces
deserve especial mention but we can' only refer to
Verdi’s “Praise God in His Holiness,"'“Roma” a
duet, “Sweet Tears” a duet by Pacini, “Distant
Chimes” a trio by Glover and “Charity” a solo and
Ladies’chorus by Rossini., ■ : *
The Society was originally established simply to'
secure a higher style of Church music among those
of our churches who retain in use the venerable
Psalter of 1650. WHat it has, dpne and is doing, in
this regard entitles it to the gratitude of more than
one of our congregations, w,here the strong, simple,
inornate words of our venerable Psalmody have been
wedded to harmony that well accords with its deep
meanings, and goes far to atone for what critics may
consider its want of poetic form. < j ■
; The Society, however, has elicited so much vocal
lower and musical talent in these churches, that had
litherto lain dormant, that it has easily taken rank
among the scientific Musical Societies of our city,
and has evinced by the excellence of its performances
and their reputation’with the public that > the years
of careful training by Mr. Keysra&d Prof. Rondinella,
have not been lost. ii .

Trlvata Families who aim to raise vegetables of the best quality
only, nead not to lie reminded “figs do not grow on this
tles,” nor that from good seed alone can good vegetables
be obtained.
Seeds may, indeed, grow freely enough, bnt unless they prove
good in every respect, it were better they had not grown at all.
The seeds offered by us being mainly tlie produce of Bloomadalr,
raised under our own personal supervision, with the aid of years
of practical experience, wc are enabled to speak with entire coufi
donee as to their quality, aqd of the reasonable probability or
satisfactory results. -B®“* We have but few “Novelties 55 to offer.
Our experience (obtained at some cost) is that out of the multi
tude of that class of vcgetaldes advertised for sale, in most case*
the good are not new, and the new are not good—subetiu
tial, staple, well-known sorts are in tho main the must reliable.
Purchasers who do not reside within ready access of the city
nor hear raejxih&nts or druggists who vend our seeds, can be sup
pled by mail, post-paid. Priced Catalogues, lor family vise,
