RELIeIoN AND PoLIrIcs IN ENGLAND AND ScoT
LAND The question of the rubric, which has for
some time been the prevailing topic in the Church
of England, has been brought prominently before
the public by letter from the Archbishop Of Can


terbury to the clergy and laity, Of his province.
The Archbishop recommends the clergy to abstain
from any further attempt to introduce changes in
the Church service, unless they are acceptable to
the laity, and to let matters generally remain as
they are, until the way shall be prepared for final
settlement" In consequence of this letter, the
Bishop of Exeter has Withdrawn from the contest


with the aty of his diocese, and has declared tina,


ne thankfully accepts the prospect of adjustment
OF their present diversltes by some general mea.
sure which shall have the sanction of the whole
Church Whether such measure will be introdu.
ced 10 Parliament in the ensuing session is doubt
ful, but the contemplated resignation of Mr. w. E.
Gladstone, the President Of the Board OF Trade,
whose opinions on Church matters are known to
be strong, is said by many to give some color to
such an expectation. Others think that his seces-
sion has arisen from some contemplated arrange
men;s of the cabinet commercial affairs. Whilst

deeply interested, is more probably the actuatins

the paper money in that country; he is supported in


his views by the other members of the cabinet;
