One little sentence in the course of that long speech revealed the whole spirit in which it waa conceived.

He declared that all unlawful omissions and commissions ought not to be put down and I am not," he added, to be frightened by anything which may be said to me about Ritualism, which, after all, is but the smallest part of the question with which we have to deal" That is Mr. GLatssToara'a point of view, and it is that, more or leas, of most of the opponents of the BUI. The pointof view of theHouse of Commons is the very opposite, Mr. Dtsxixu brought tha argument on Wednesday to its true conclusion, and expressed the feeling oi the House most correctly when he nedared that he supported the Bill because, in plain words, its object was to put down Ritualism." This is a nutter of common sense, on which no appeal is possible, except to the general experience, observation, and discernment of the mass of sensible men. Is Ritualism the small matter Mr.

Gladstoct declares, or is grievous mischief and danger to the Church and to society That to which a cer tain party of the Clergy and of clerical sympathirers ought to hare their eyes opened by this debate is the deep and unanimous aversion of the mass of the laity of Kn gland from the reactionary, superstitious, tin wholesome practices and doctrines which, under cover of an ineffectual legal procedure, have spread widely in the Church and are being daily aggravated. There is no doubt about the fact. Good Churchmen in and out of Parliament hare long seen it far too plainly, and have silently resented it. They were silent because they supposed it was none of their business. The Bishops and Clergy must go their own way and take the consequencea.

But they waited only for a responsible leader and the Aarnmrsnor no sooner steps forward than all this accumulated resentment breaks out. The Auckwihot had a more just appreciation of the question than his representative in the Lower House. Ha arowed his desire to put down the superstitions he denounced, and to re assert the Protestantism of tha Church of England and the consequence is that he has at one) the whole laity of both Houses at his back. If he has committed any error, it is in not taking auch a line before. Bishops are cautious, not to say timorous, and they have dallied with this question from a doubt whether they would really obtain adequate support.

They ought to have known the temper of Englishmen better, and they too, it may be hoped, have now received a lesson they wiU not soon forget. There is a strong and hearty attachment in the F.nglish people to their Church, to its formularies, and main characteristics. But if it could become a shelter for superstition instead of a protection against it, an engine of sacerdotalism instead of a standing protest against it, they would abandon the Establishment, as Mr. Goschxx said, "the very next day." There is reason, in fact, to conclude, from the mav posed of those members of the Upper House, and those only, who have filled judicial office or have been otherwise trained to the exercise of judicial jowers, and to call this Court the House of Lords is a misdescription which appears to be only too powerful in misleading superficial observer. The title, as Mr.

Serjeant Sntox said yesterday, is a fiction, and when, putting it aside, we proceed to inquire into the characteristics of the Court which is so wrongly presented to the public, wo find it is subject to defects which are universally confessed The real question fur the Legislature is how these shall be remediod, and Sir Qeocgk Bowtzji proposes to cure them by introducing new elements of fiction into that which is alreadv too fictitious. The decided that the oromiae at election time of an en character of his sets. The decision of the Court present Court so far follows tho House of Lords tertaiament to be given after the election, coupled was, therefore, inevitable. that it sits only when Parliament is sitting. Sir GroRux Bowtxb would give it power to sit when Parliament is out of Session.

Although little more than half a dozen Peers are eligible to sit on it, no one can now be a member of the Court who is not a Peer it is now proposed that it may be recruited by the addition of members having no share in the legislative powers of the Upper House. A Court containing Commoners as well as Peers, and sitting irrespective of the Session of Parliament, may be called the House of Lords, but it would no more be the House of Lords than the Court of Session. The proposal amounts to a confession ot the force of all the arguments for a severance of the connexion between the Upper House and the Ultimate Court of Appeal, but pleads far the retention of a fictitious name and it was impossiblo to suppose that the House of Com mons could listen to this suggestion after the Lords themselves had rejected it, and by way of reversal of the policy adopted last year. Not a few lawyer joined in the sentimental regrets of Sir Gxoaac Bow but we fear their speeches yesterday will not heighten our regard for their judgment as members of a Legislature. The establishment of a new Imperial Court of Appeal, and the transfer to it of the functions hitherto exercised by the Judicial Committee of the House of Lords and the Judicial Committee of tho Privy Council, must now be accepted as finally settled.

It is to no good put pose that debates are raised again upon this cardinal principle of the Judicature Act, and wrc gladly turn from them to practical questions. Mr. Btrrr raised a point fairly susceptible of argument when he urged that the time for putting the Judicature Act into operation should be postponed for another twelve months. The Rules which are necessary for the working of the Act hare not yet been published, and it is said that the time left between this and November will not be sufficient to allow them to be mastered by the profession. Tbe Rales hare, however, been circulated if they have not been published, and Mr.

The outlay which these questions and rumours suggest may be exaggerated, but it was the universal persuasion at Kidderminster that the Conservative candidate in 1863 paid pretty handsomely for his triumph, and Mr. conspicuously unequal, r.

Stress was also laid on the fact that the Act of last year contemplated the issue of the Rules after the close of the Session of Parliament, and we may ssy at once that we attach very little weight to the criticism either House may be supposed to bring to bear on them. The election was claimed by the petitioners, and may by such a Code the general relations of bel reesonably be allowed on the ground that the ligerent Powers.

It was 011 this occa jurisprudence. 5 my I ciliition. Anything more moderate than is asked of the Clergy under this Bill could not be conceived.

They are simply asked to submit to tho effective enforcement of those existing laws of this Church and realm to which they pledged their obedience at their ordination. Tho laity arc content to abide by the law and to ask no more than it requires. Whether they would always bo content with this if the controversy were prolonged is more than doubtful, and they will not be satisfied with a nominal enforcement of the law. It mutt be owned tho measure is an experiment. It will certainly need great discretion ia its adminis tration, and it may have some dixagreeablo con sequences.

As for the moderate High Churchmen for whom Mr. HattT and others appeal, we do not believe they will be hurt but if they should find themselves placed under somo unwelcome restrictions, they hare themselves mainly to blame. They hare persistently thrown the protec tion of their name and their general sympatliy around the extravagances which have provoked this legislation. If men like Dr. Prsxv had set their faces against the exeessea of their party, they would probably have repressed inch abuses within insignificant limits, and tlsoy coukl now appeal for toleration with a good case.

But instead of "damning with faint praise, they have praised with faint condemnation every new development of superstiUon and of lucducral doctrine. It ia not for them ta complain if the eonsequmnra recoil upon them. Demands, too, may be made on the' good sense and patience of other parties to obey tame unwelcome regulations. But no alarm ia expressed by then parties, and they can hsrdry be rrong ieelingu they eeem to do, that an tulforcement of the law cannot be any vto: the main principles the be eome exceptional point of difficulty. tha Statesmen iiReformeri oT the sixibtetury knew Tery thfyWn tt ia inebnceirablo thjoaUhejir fntheirfctnularfeeth prnManlea'tewhki they had ittsittc ai know the Rules before they can be put into opera rion that ho first unfolded his idea of an cnter tion, and, unless they aro very soon made public, tho operation of the Act must bo delayed for a short time say, until the resumption of sittings after Christmas.

It would, however, be premature to resolve on a delay that may not be necessary. Sir Hkxkt James, being now emancipated from the financial pressure of. a Chancellor of tho Exchequer on hia own side, raised another point of importance when he proposed that the Judges of the Common Law Divisions of the High Court should be retained at tho number of 18, instead of being gradually reduced to 15, as provided by the Act of last year, but it was ruled not with uch tho nd lutctiti' whih tho pro tainment "to bo given after the election, when i of tlij l'ans Society have 110 aaeuiiied. all danger from hostile petitioners should bo over.
