The working factors of Pio Pie lestauls.ni are thus reduced te 15,000,000. As te the 00,000 Protestant pastors, the bishop is Inclined te class one-thlrd of thein as either Inefficient, or actual imitedimenu.

They include avowed infidels, educated and wealthy lndlllerenU, and the se-called vicious classes. Tlie infidels make eien attacks upon the Christian svsteiu and combine lu leagues te destroy It.
