THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH" PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1867.
.ST. A I'd US rAVv'.S' DA Y.
TLe i!Cth of May, vdiiuh falls on to-morrow,
ta tset opart iu the calendar as sacred to the
memory ofSt. Augustine, the celebrated Apostle
f England, whojs said to have died on that
clay, alxmt the year A. D. 605. ' Iu the latter
fart of the sixtljt century, when Gregory the
Great was Pope of Rome, the old Convent of
St. Andiew, which stands on the (Vlian Mount,
just in the rear of the Coliseum, was presided
over by a pious man named Augustine. Pope
Grtgory Felected liiin and forty othur monks
belonging to this convent, to carry the gospel
into the inland of Britain. About this time,
Ethelbert, the heathen King of Kent, had mar
ried a Christian princess named llertha, the
daughter of Caribert, King of Paris. She took
with her to Britain a French bishop as her
chaplain, and was permitted the free exercise
of her religion in a small chapel outside of
Canterbury.
Augustine and his fellow-missionaries landed
on the island of Thauet, but the date of this
Important event has not been preserved,
although the old monkish historians assert
that it was on the very day that Mahomet first
saw the light. The island of Thanet was at
that time f eparated from the mainland by an
arm of the sea, and there Augustine remained
for Borne time, at the request of the king, who
feared the good monk might seduce him into a
profession of Christianity through the agency
of the black art. An interview between the
monk and the king was soon arranged, and
resulted in the former being permitted to com
mence his missionary labors on the mainland.
Augustine with his followers then marched in
solemn procession to Canterbury, where they
took up their residence. As they went on
their way, they carried before them a large
silver cross and a banner containing a repre
sentation of the Saviour, singing also one of
the still famous Gregorian chants.
Augustine commenced his labors at once,
and with such success that he baptised King
Ethelbert on the following Whit Sunday, June
2, A. D. 597. The example of the king was
soon followed by the lesser chieftains and the
common people, and on the succeeding Christ
mas it is said that ten thousand of the Saxons
were baptised near Sheerness.
The great work of evangelizing England
'was thus fairly inaugurated. Subsequently,
Augustine is said to have visited Wales and
Yorkshire, and after some years passed in
zealous preaching to the Pagan islanders, he
is reported to have died on the 2Gth of May,
but in what particular year is now a matter of
-doubt. It was eminently proper that after his
death be should have been elevated to the
dignity of sainthood.
.THE LUXEMBOURG QUESTION.
OBF1CIAL STATEMENT BY LOUD STANLEY IN THB
BOUSE OF COMMONS.
In the House of Commons, on the 9th Instant,
the qutfetion of the Conference was brought up
by Mr. Lubouchere, who asked the Secretary of
Slate lor Foreign Affkiis whether, in the event
of her Majesty's Government considering It ad
visable to Join la any European guarantee witti
regard to the neutrality or tbe future political
position of tbe Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
before tbe country was committed toanysuoU
guarantee the nature of tbe obligations iu
which it might involve us would be explained,
and the House be given an opportunity to ex
press an opinion upon the expediency of under
taking them.
Lord Stanley The best answer I can Rive to the
question of llie honorable member Is that the Con
ference now assembled hi London n.et this morning,
and although I do not think It consistent with my
duty instate In any detail what took place beiweea
the representatives of me yarlous powers, f may say
that substantially an arrangement had been come to
(cheers) and that iltt.e but lormal bun loess remains
to be transacted. Teu days ago. In answer to a ques
tion from my honorable lrienu behind me, 1 ventured
to express a hope that the Luxembourg question,
which was then disturbing Kurope, was in a lair way
of being brought to an amicable termination, and I
believe J am not too sanguine when I say that tbe
hope I then expressed is practically realized. (Loud
cheeis.) I think X may congratulate the House
and 1 may, also, congratulate, the couutry that
the good enne and moderation ol tbe parties prima
rily interested iu this ampule, combined with the good
sense and moderation ot the neutral powers associated
with ihem In this Couierence. have resulted in avert
ing the unspeakable calamity of a Kuropeuu war.
which a few daveaptoappearedtobelmmlnent. (Hear,
hear.) As to the part which her Majesty's Govern
ment baa taken In these arrangements, X may say that
we have acted la accordance with the coimiltuilonal
mage of tbe country upon our responsibility as ad
visers of tbe Crown. We have exercised that respon
sibility whenever the necessities of tbe case required
that we should exercise ii. and from the vlndlcallor
of our arts in tout respect. If such vindication be neces
sary, neither I nor my colleagues In anyway desire
to (brink. (Hear.) I never wish to make a mystery
of matters with which I am olllcially connected, or
keep secrets from tbe knowledge of the liouse un
necessarily; but tire present ease was so urgent that It
was absolutely necessary that some reserve should be
exercised. Kvery week the urgency of the case in
creased, and every week we were told the chances of
war became more Imminent. It Is obvious, then, that
the postponement of i.egotiatious mR'hi have led to
most dungerous complications, and X felt I could
not lake upon myselt singly to postpone negotia
tions lor an indettulle period, because delay might
not have led to a settlement desired by all parties
alike. Now, with regard to the question of guarantee,
I am not surprised, and certainly aiu not sorry, thai
there should bo a strong fueling or susceptibility in
this House with respect to the subject ot guarantees.
But as to tins particular question, X take It fir
grained that tbe House Is awari that Knglund, In
common with the rest of the stftnatarlca to the Treaty
of lb.19, actually guaranteed the Urnnd Duchy of Lux
embourg to the King of Holland in the most full.abso
lute and uuqualltied manner. That Is au engagement
which we at the present oay did not mage, and all that
we have done is simply to adapt that engagement to
the chanted circumstances oi the times, and to the
position of the urand Duchy consequent upon the dis
solution of the Germanic Confederation. In doing this
we have not Incurred any iresh responsibility; we
have rather limited and tleilned It; indeed. I should
Ibluk. we cava narrowed the responsibility which
formerly rested upon this country in connection with
Luxembourg, whatever the amount ot that responsi
bility may have been. Tins, however, is a matter
which I shall be prepared to introduce to the House
at some future time, it any discussion up o It Is
desired; hut It Is obviously a matter whlohlcanuot
.-7... ... in ,i, limit nl an answer to a ques-
tlou. I can oniy express nop. .J T
will lu a lew days have so far advauced that I shall
be able to lay upon the table of the House all papers
relating to the subject,
plause.)
