„. r „to t ,, ~n c of the protesting clergy :
„ y,iu might relieve your own mind in
p ine cou , iderable degree by a perusal of
p ro Temple's sermons, or some of only
the tir.q among them on Good Friday
I do nut learn that the highest and most
responsible authorites of the Church are
ii-satisfied with ,the nomination of Dr.
Temple. At the same time, Ido not
to transfer to them any portion of
the responsibility which belongs entire
ly to myself.” Canon Cooke, a member
of the Chapter, wrote to another protes
ter : " I hold that nothing but heresy or
immorality would justify refusal-to elect,
and that Dr. Temple is one of the best
men, morally, whom I know, and there
is not a trace of heresy in his writings.
Ott the contrary, he explicitly avows be
lief in all great truths controverted by
Rationalists. What blame attaches to
Lint for allowing his name to continue
among* the Essayists. and Reviewers, will
be dilferently estimated by good men
Much blame must attach to him, but for
lily own part I attribute his refusal to
disavbro complicity to an exaggeration
(This characteristic qualities—generosity
and unselfishness, Nothing could have
been easier than to vindicate himself—
lie preferred to incur reproach, even
well deserved reproach, and believed that
hv so acting his career was well nigh
eioFed."
—Dr. Temple is of comparatively
humble orig in , and the majority of the
English bisops of the present day are
men belonging to the middle class. The .
Archbishop of Canterbury's iiither was
a writer to the signet in Edinburgh,—
The Archbishop of York is the son of a
retired merchant in Whitehaven, a small
town in Cumberland,. The father of the
Bishop of London was a merchant in a
very moderate way of business. The
aristocratic prelate is almost a thing of
the past in England.
—The society which conducts the
London Midnight Mission, employs two
female missionaries, who watch for girls
in the streets, visit them at their - homes,
and gather them at occasional meetings.
They also depend on the gratuitous aid
or numerous workers, who are ready to
assist on general' and special occasions.
Ott the twenty-fifth of March a tract was
put into the hands of every fallen female
found in the streets of London between
ten and twelve o'clock at night. The
workers meet for prayer at eight o'clock,
and at ten they are assigned, two and
tiro,
to different districts i n the vicinity
of the place of meeting. They take with
them cards of invitations enclosed in a
white envelope. The next hour and a
half is spent in seeking out these wo.
men, and endeavoring to induce them to
attend the meeting. Some of them put
on an air of bravado, and profess to be
satisfied with their course; but a large
nrijority of them acknowledge that' they
arc wrong, and plead various excuses for
their conduct. Some thankfully accept
the invitation to attend, and do so.
Others promise, but fail ; and still
others say that it is of no use for them
to go, At about half-past eleven, re
freshments are served, some of the work
ers acting as waiters, and others of them
seeking opportunities for conversation
with the guests. At about twelve
o'clock the religious exercises com

Ireland.
--The Irish Presbyterian Church for
two hundred years received government
kunty, but now intend to sustain them
selves. They have 560 churches, 610
ministers, 247 missions, and two colleges,
where 316 students are preparing for
the ministry. The churches raised
last year nearly £l3O for each congre
gatinn. Now it is proposed to raise a
!Lind to be equally divided among the
(hurdles, and £l5O has been fixed as
the lowest salary any mipister should re
ceive.
--There are a thousand children of
Catholic parents in attendance on the
Government Model School in Dublin,
in spite of Cardinal Cullen's threat
to withhold the sacrament from their
parents.
France.
—ln Paris steps are being prayerfully
taken to carry on vigorously the work
of evangelization commenced last year ;
a meeting for prayer and conference on
the subject has been held in the
Presbyterial hall of the Oratoire, be
tween Christian Protestants of various
denominations. The winter campaign
has begun.
—Two new Baptist stations have been
authorized in one week by the authori
ties in Paris fur public worship. •
—Fifty thousand people witnessed

Pitri , where the bodies of the victims of
the l'oltin murder had been foed, in
the va;n hope of discovering a'ffother.

the opportuni t y by distributing a few

has spiritually given up the ghost. The
Monde, a purely Roman journal, though
published at Paris, publishes, by au
thority, a note dated October 15, decree
ing that the Carmelite preacher is apos
tate, smitten with the greater excommu
nication, and various other ecclesiastical
pains and penalties too numerous to
mention, as the auction bills say."
—ln the department of the Niesre,
in the very heart of the French empire,
a respectable and aged cure, who had
gained the affection and veneration of
the district, was compelled to announce
from his pulpit that be was on the eve
of i quitting his parish. Why was he
ejected ? The bishop of the diocese had
accused the cure of not professing the
doctrines recognised by the Ultramon
tunes. The news produced the deepest
discontent throughout the parish. The
bishop then thought it necessary to
come himself, in order to re-establish
order ; but he obtained no sympathy,
and a great number of Roman Catho
lics declared that they would rather
join the Protestant communion than en
dure so odious a tyranny ; and they have
actually sent a deputation to the Rev.-
M. Claval, pastor of Sancerre, request
ing him to - celebrate Protestant wor
ship in their village, and to 'baptize
their children !—Evangelical Christen

—The Romish clergy receive annually
from the public treasury of France forty
six millions of francs. The Protestants
and the Jews obtain only 2,374 000
francs for the expenses of their worship,
the erection of their religious edifies,
etc.
Switzerland
There are forty two churches in Swit
zerland separated from the national
church and organized into a Synod, of
Presbyterian forms, which meets once a
year. The clergy as a class are intelli
gent, and earnest in their labors. • Two
new churches were organized during the
year, and seven evangelists were • em
ployed in forming new stations. Their
Theological Seminary had sixty-five
students enrolled, of whom sixteen were
French, six Spaniards, one Canadian,
and one Syrian. They have no board
of foreign missions, but two young men
offered their services to go anywhere.
The movement in favor of an entire se
paration of Church and State, in Swit
zerland, is gathering ground in all quar
ters.
Belgium.
—After France this is the only Roman
Catholic country where the mass of the
people, are industrious, and where true
porsperity pervades society. The Evan
gelical Synod, which is mainly the
growth of the last twenty five years, now
represents about twenty Protestant
churches, whose creed is the orthodoxy
of the sixteenth 'century. They enjoy
fill religious freedom, but reject the
support of the government. Their re
ligious efforts through tracts, Bibles, col
porteurs and open air preaching, are sus
tained at an expense of less than
$25,000, a part of which is contributed
in Great Britain and the United States.
The people are as liberal as their poverty
will admit, and the pastors live on as
little as will possibly Support them.
Both the preachers and the people were
once Roman Catholics, and most of them
have not a relative who is a Protestant.
One of these pastors was brought to his
present course in this way : " While a
Roman Catholic student at a Roman
Catholic College, he had to listen to a
lecture delivered against the Protestants
by his professor. It seemed to him the
lecture was so unfair he determined to
judge for himself. Accordingly he un
dertook a long journey to Brussels for
the purpose of seeing and conversing
with a Protestant minister. As he got
to the very door, overcome by fear of
heretics, his heart gave way, and he re
turned without effecting his purpose;
but in due time be conquered his fears,
and is now preaching to three or four
hundred people, who were all, like him
self, originally Roman Catholics." Such
is one example out of many.
—A. Reformed Evangelical Church
has been established at Seville, and the
Rev. J. B. Cabrera has gone to Madrid
to obtain a charter for its organization
from the Cortes.
—The First Spanish Protestant church
in Madrid is to be built upon a piece of
ground, of 17,000 square feet, granted
gratuitously by the Madrid municipal
corporation for that purpose. ' It is de
signed to seat about 500 persons, to have
a bell tower (with a clock and spire), to
rise about 155 feet. Schools and a cler
gyman's house are to be in the rear.
The whole is to be built of stone (a kind
of Bath stone), with slated roof, and its
estimated cost is £lO,OOO. The London
Builder gives it picture of the design;
exhibiting quite a fine edifice.
.—Barely ten months have passed since
public service was first held in Madrid,
and there exists now a church, attended
twice every Sunday by 850 to 900 peo
ple, on weekdays by 450 to 500; 3
Sunday Schools, attended by 200 chil
dren; 1 day-school, and 4 mission cen
tres, where the gospel is preached both
on Sabbath and week-days to nearly 600
people.
The accomplished daughter of a
gouty Spaniard has been led to turn her
attention to the work of translating into
Spanish, from French and English,
tracts suitable for children; while God
has also raised us up in Madrid a young
Spaniard who has a facility for, turning
Erk.glish hymns, etc., into ,his own lan
guage. We have now in Spanisjh verse
some of our standard English -hymns,
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1869.
such as "I lay my sins on Jesus,"
"There is a fountain filled with blood,"
etc, while the children have, "I'm not
too young for God to see," That sweet
story of old," "'Sweet rest in heaven,"
and "The old, old story."
—Because of the Republican upris
ing in southern and western Spain the
government has closed every Republican
club in Spain. A correspondent of
Ch,ristian. Work says "It was in these
clubs that infidelity and Socialism were,
night after night, zealously taught. But
now these schools of the devil (I know
of no other name by which to designate
them) are all dosed; the mouths of the
preachers of lies are stopped."
These internal disturbances have
interfered very materially with evangel
istic work, as the issue of tracts on be
half of the . Religious. TraeLSociety of
London requires to be - suspended in
many Provinces.. At the great annual
fair of Valladolid, 266 Bible's, 15:Tes
taments and 2,700 Gospels were s.e.d,
and some 20,000 tracts distributed;
amongst the latter were 8,000 of a tract
written 'especially for the oedaigion, called
"The Martyrs of-Valladolid and which
attracted much attention. It told bow
greatly.' Spaniards sirffeied: In the
15th century for the Gospel's sake, and
urged all readers to possess themselves
of the book for.which their forefathers
bad gladly gone to the stake, in the very
city of Valladolid. -
—From Galicia an evangelist reports
of the eagerness,of the people to -hear
the word, and, appeals for another la
'borer. The mission centre in the lowest
quarter of Madrid has been signally
blessed. Four times a week a young
Spaniard, full of ,zeal and faith, a true
convert, preaches,. the Gospel to . a Most
attentive audience of from 200 to 250
people; while the , Sunday-school and
the children's services are also well . at
tended.
—The (Ecumenical Council meets
..De
cember Bth, the innivereary of the pro
mulgation of the dogma that the Virgin
Mary was bore without `sin: Niaily a
thousand prelates constitute the present
hierarchy of the. church, all- of whom
have been summoned to - Chi's - twentieth
council. Of these twelve are r&riarche,
a hundred and thirty-five archbishops,
six hundred bishops, and the remainder
cardinals, nuncios, vicars-apostolic, and
missionary delegates. The States of the
Church possess six archbishops and
fifty-eight bishops. Great Britain and
her colonies, ten of „the former and
fifty-eight of the latter, the United
States seven, and forty-eight, and
balance are distributed all over the
world. There is yet some doubt whether
the Generals of reli g ious orders, such as
the Jesuits, will be admitted to the
rights'aid privileges - of diocesans. Arch
bishops and bishops in partibus are, how
ever, to be so admitted.
The topics which will occupy the
attention of the council, relate chiefly
to such matters of internal discipline as
missions, the reunion to the Church of
heretics and schismatics, changes in re
ligious orders, instructions to the clergy,
and the judicial power of the bishops,
etc.
Already a large " number of bishops
in various countries have remOnstrated
against the way in which the " dwellers
at Rome," have prepared digests of de
crees and questions to be brought bgfore
the Council, as being a trespass on their
own peculiar and inherent rights. The
Belgian bishops will be united in pre
senting a protest against a decree of
the Pope's ordering, the return to its
usual receptacle of the Host, which,
since religious wars in that country long
time ago, has been kept in a tower. The
Portuguese .bishops are said to be openly
opposed to the designs of the Roman
officials, and many of them refuse to at
tead the council at all, while it is un
derstood that the liberal bishops will
frequent entertainments to be , giVen
weekly by Dupanloup, the Bishop of Or
leans, whose name has become familiar
in connection with Pere Hyacinthe.
Thus the Holy Father's family gives
signs of a turbulent disposition as its
members gather to the Eternal city from
the four quarters of the globe. And
there is a possibility of a stormy time.
The voting of the Council will be
done with colored balls. Red will sig
nify affirmation, blue dissent, and white
doubt, hesitation or skepticism.
Germany.
—At the. late "Congress of the Inner
Mission," held at Stuttgart, Germany,
the beginning of September, the most
interesting discussion took place on the
relation religion to the condition of
the laboring classes. Herr Quistorp, of
Stettin, a manufacturer, described the
religious system he had introduced into
the large community of which he is the
chief. He first secured a deaconness
from the Institution at Kaiserwerth, who
attends the sick, conducts mothers' meet
ings, and is § blessing generally. He
established prayer-meetings and a sing
ing-school, to secure, good music for the
church. He supplied bake-houses and
provision stores, where all necessaries
could be bought at reasonable prices.
He favored innocent recreations, opening
the libraries and reading-rooms on Sun
day afternoons. - He said : "A pleasant
cottage to the labcrcr is. of immense va
lue, without *true family relations are
greatly clogged. I have now built
seventy five separated houses, at a rent
for the operatives of twelve •thalers an
dually. Cleanliness I make an essential,
and I find that with the women it is a
pleasure rather than a 'burden. The
householder is the best workman. In
1866, when the war broke out, I must
have closed the mills, had not the work
men voluntarily agreed to work on half
wages. This, I need not tell you, was
fully made up to them when better times
returned. Apart from religion, the
financial results have been most satisfac
tory. My sacrifices have produced me
a high interest. If all manufacturers
would appreciate this, the solution of the
vexed question of labor would be easily
reached, and we would be rescued from
a dangerous crisis."
—Dr. Osgood (Unitarian), writinc ,
from Munich, draws a picture of the
continental Sabbath which is applicable
to nearly all the cities of
. the continent,
and will apply in a few years to many in
this country, if things go on as they are
now going. He says " With all these
churches and church-going, Sunday is
not wholly a godly day . in Munich.
From eleven o'clock till three the stores
are open for business, and at night the
theatres, concerts, dance gardens and
beer saloons are in full blast,—and I am
t ld, on good authority, that a considerable
proportion of Munich is quietly drunk on
Sunday night. 1. am not much fascinated
with' the European Sunday, and hold
still stoutly to our intelligent American
ideas on that subject. Let the day be
cheerful and full of all high thought and
genial affection, not gloomy nor sepul
chral; the day of the soul and of God,
and of all divinely human love; but apart
from, all revelry and all business cares,
and all pleasures, so called, that make
'toil and trouble for servants and work
men. Our America will take a great
step downward when she gives up her
calm, and uplifting Sabbath for the Eu
ropean holy day. We may enliven, but
let us not do away, the good old sanctity
of the altar and home."
—Hitherto the Austrian universities
have •not admitted Jews as professors.
But the disability is at last removed'
Dr. Maunther, an eminent oculist of the
school of Stilwag and Von Graefe, has
bee.n appointed to the chair of ophthalmic
surgery in the University of Inn
spruck.
—The Austro Hungarian Government
last year adopted a system for secular
izing the schools of the country—a re
fbrm violently opposed by the Ultramon
tane clergy and party. • It has just been
carried into effect at Ofen, where there
are - many Jews who have many children.
These children being sent, under the
new system, to the public sehool, tie
Catholic Pastor called upon his flock
not to suffer their offspring to be con
taminated by contact in the school with
a horde of Jewish brats—J . /cc/en. buben.
Whereupon, on Monday following, a
mob, largely composed of female Catho
lics, assaulted the school house, battered
the teachers, and scattered the Judy':
baen, screeching through the streefs.
TH73-11orive4 or National Bluard had to
be called out before order could be re
stored. The Archbishop, of Grau was
indiscreet enough to publicly praise this
exhibition of mob violence, as " a proper
zeal for the Church."
Russia.
—The fanatical sects of Russia are
still exciting the attention of Europe.
A Russian paper says, that a party of
four hundred of the Skopsi left the town
of Balats.ehow, and proceeded to a neigh
boring wood to pray. The scene wit
nessed on their return was horrible. A
madman named ,Wasiloff declared that
he was the Son of God, and after choos
ing twelve apostles from the party, called
for a human sacrifice. Five victims
were at once selected, placed on a num
ber of wagons which had been piled up
for the purpose, and burned alive. A
woman who had distinguished herself by
the violence of her religious paroxysm,
seized the shaft of the cart and beat two
young girls to death ; while another fe
male was first trodden under foot and
then literally torn to pieces by the fana
tical crowd. Other details are given of
the horrors enacted, which are utterly
unfit for publication. The governor of
the town heard of the facts and sent a
company of soldiers to the spot, where
the whole party was arrested and placed
in confinement, thus stopping further ex
cesses. It is hardly to be wondered
at that the Russian authorities are in
perplexity how to deal with the mem
bers of this sect. The infliction of phy
sical pains and penalties has no terrors,
but the contrary.
