Now, let us see what the Church of Ireland Protestant Delence Association," the committtee of which contain the names of many clergyâ€" men of the Church, noblemen and gen:â€" tlemen of the highest standing, say of the present Prayer Book. _ _ ___ _ _ To ~â€""‘The first Prayer Book of Edward the VIi. (1549) contained many remmants of komish‘ â€" doetrines, â€" and_ authorised the use â€"of the Romish Sacredotal Vestments. In the second (1552) Romish Vestments were forbidden and the sacerdotal and sacramental superstitious were boldly dealt with and to a great measâ€"~ ure removed. The Third Prayer Book came out in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and «lirected to favour the First and so TME EC LESIASTICAL DISCUSSION, to take backward steps towards I:ome. The use of the kownsl) Vestments was restored, the lubric w-t the presenc# of the body and b of Christ in the Nucrament was wholly expunged, a part of the 26th Article, which cuts by the root baptismal mfi:m-nuon, was entirely omitted, and in that staté it was imâ€"~ posed upon the nation. Ths object of the Queen was to make the Prayer Book as little offensive to the koman Catholios as possible, and to introduce a certain amount of Romanism, softened down in ueed, and dilute !, so as not to shock und alienate her Protestant subjects, but still sufficient to conciliate tju reat buik of the KRomanist population. ‘i’hm the Prayer Book was corrl:rted to please the li@man Catholics, and the Queen‘s object was so for attained that for 10 years the Roman Uatholics repaired to the parish chureches without doubt or sorupla. Two more revisions were made in the 17th century, which rendered matâ€" ters ratier worse than they had been before. ‘The third Prayer Book of Elizaâ€" beth was further Romanized in 1604, un ier James 1., when by injunotion of the King and without the authority of Parliaâ€" ment, the words " verily and indeed taken and received," were introduced into the . (Catechism in couiféction with ¢ the body and blood of Christ‘ in the Lord‘s Su& per. ‘That part of the Catechism whi dogmatically teaches baptiemal regenera tion, was also further strengthened by the changes made in its formularies. The founfi..?n’er Book thus corrupted was still _ more Romm:ld in _ 1661 under â€" Charles II. en a further step was taken in the antiâ€"Reformation road. In this addition the word "Priest" was substituted for the word "pastor," and "Deacon" for "Minister," These last To the Editor of THE TlJlES riotismm which overtlowed in every ti around the festive board at which I.“!‘A"‘.‘;\ll‘l‘-' inserting the of inm»â€"nications of Correspondents, he is in ho way to be neid responslble ior the opinions expressed therein Csyrcspoudqn(cr. wantâ€"any fur yo sien t:v unsterst jod going to say tNt." Athanasius, for no doubt he will be canonized at some future dayâ€"he is in the straight road to that state of biissâ€"to him I would merely sav, controvert one sing‘e statement reâ€" garding the Prayer Book which I have given, and then you might have some câ€"ince of putting me in the wrong, but your mere assertion and personal twaddle â€"1 treat with the contempt it merits. [here are, however,one or two points of thaâ€" * Saint‘s‘" production I will refer to : ite says if I do not belong to the Church of England, it is plainly none of my business what she does. In the first this city in peace and quietness, and , follow the dictates of our consciences ; | "but we were not allowed to do so, mcl such being the case, we claim it as a right | to defend ourselves for the stand we have | | taken, and point out where we think the Bishep and the "Church‘‘ are wrong. We will do so just as we like, when we like and how we like, so long as we do it reâ€" specftully and with some show of argu ‘ ment. Surely when Bisbhop Lewis insinuâ€" ated that we were likely to fall into Romanism and infidelity, there was nothâ€" ing wrong in our poiating to the fact of some thirty clergymen of the Church of England going over to the Church of Rome. Again, many churchmen deny that the teaching of the Church leads to Iiome. Is there a.uything wrong in our pointing out where it does? Again. | Athanasius accuses me of intolerance and ali sorts of naughty things. He never ‘ made such a mistake in his life, I respect the sincere Koman Catholic, who follows l the creed of his Cburch, in which he â€" was born and _ brought up, and firmly believe there are many, many good Christians in\ that faith ; but I protest against Roman Catholic | doctrine being preached from Protestant lace [ would irform Athanasius that I Eelon to the "Reformed Episcopal churo%n," against which the Bishop of Ontario thought it charitable to preach from the pulpit of St. John‘s in this city, and not satisfied with denouncing us from the pulpit, from our Bishop downwards, as apostolic schismatics, ignoraunt,deluded, and other kind epithets, he had his awldreas published and held it for sale in the book stores in this city, and we can: not say where it has not been circulated. We wished to retire from the Church in pulpits, or tuugfn in our Sunday schools, just as strongly as a Roman Catholic ‘would protest were Protestant doctrine and teaching attempted to be taught by their priests or in their schools. I want no better Froof of what the Ritualistic party would do in the Church if they could, than *‘ Athanasius‘" letter, where he says, "just as the High Church party bhas carried all before it in England, so will it do so here and elsewhere ; and, for the same reason, i.e., activity in good works instead of cant about the .open Bible and the princiP!es of the Reformaâ€" tion." * Athanasius"‘ also accuses ms of «* presumption,‘" _ Well, [ do prasume to have a fair share of common sense, have learned to think for myself, and be.ieve that I know just as well as he doss, or all the clergy of the "Church‘" combined, what service is acceptable to Almighty God, and what I haye to do for the salvaâ€" gion of my soul. If this is "presumption‘"‘ in the light he means, I plead guilty, if it is any satisfaction to him. I want no meâ€" diator between me and my Maker, save one ; if he wants more, hehas no busiâ€" ness in a Protestant Church. ob }Iaving thus disposed of the "Lion" and the "Saint," I would assure them and such as they, that neither personality, abuse, nor intimidation will deter me, or those with whom I act, from on all occaâ€" sions defending what we believe to be right, and putting down, or trying to do so, what we believe to be wrong. _ __ GUIBORD DIFFICULTY he says:â€"Americans were very much interested in the matter, chiefly, I sup. pose, on account of the stand taken by the Catholic priests and q:porl in the recent elections on the school question. quite a number of Americans hold the opinion that at no distant day this Catholio underâ€"current of dissatisfaction with the free school system will burst forth id fury and Jeluge the country in fierce religious conflict. My own opinion is that the power of the priests in Amorica will never produce ruch a result, because while Irish immigration is already small, the rising generation of Irish Americans are so st.ron‘fl_y imbued with liberal prinâ€" ciples (the‘direct effect of the free school system) flutu‘::r cannot be led so easily by ecclesiastical power as in time past. If, however, Romanism were to unite with Demooracy, or if Romanism can control Democracy, then my opinion as above will likely prove incorrect.

Nevertheless, we cannot help thinking that this "war cloud" business is a goodmd:;l attenuated. We do not believe that the two great English s > ing nations, having peacefully ufilm much more vexatious question of the Alabama claims without qumuil:fi‘m going to get into a fight over the v of the fisheries. That question was proâ€" vided for "13‘ the treaty, and we shall fullil our ty obligations, even if it is to our disadvantage, just as England paid over fifteen million dollars on the Alaâ€" bama claims, though it came like orullifi teeth. _ With all the activity of navi preparations of which there is no doubt, though the other newspapers do not take the trouble to find out about it, we beg our readers not to be .alarmed. The country is in no condition for war, and we do not believe that we shall have a war. There may be a bluster with .3&.!:; there may be a dinguu with England as to the value of the fisheries ; but we should be base indeed if we tried to sneak out of a bnrjainthat romised to go against us. And how much should we gain by war with Great Britain? Hundreds of mdlionl would be cast\into the sea in such a war, and neither would gain anything. No ; our nat government is not comâ€" posed of idols and â€"there is nothing to be made in any way by‘ &unging the ooum into a foreign war. course, we sl maintain our national dignity, and we shall continue to fool away a good deal of money in the navy department. THB FISHERY QURSTION, The ‘Washington correspondent of the Herald says :â€" f It does not necessarily follow that there will be a war with Enfind over the fishâ€" éries, and, of course, Mr. Fish and all conâ€" nected with the administration will deny that there 1s any probability of war. THB INTERIOR HISTORY OF THE SITUATION is known to very few persons. Even the members of the %x‘églomatio here have been thrown the scent :y the Spaqish business, and have thought, until this time, that our government feared some sudden attack from Spain and was arminig to prevent it. All the legations have spies at work, watching mlnl orrnuonn, and all have been p by the secrecy observed at the navy departâ€" ment. It is only within the past two months that Bngflnd has began to pgu the Canadian claimâ€" very urgently. Our government has managed to secure delay every year since the pmmwy. More than a year ago the ians were ANOTHER REOIPROOITY TREATY must be arranged to take the place of the settlement by commission proposed under the treaty of Washington. i a treaty was nogl:.d-ud and subnuti to the Senate last winter, where it scarcely considered at all, and it is ul:}nt Mr. Fish did not even intend to have it con~ sidered ; but it served to delay the comâ€" mission. Last spring exâ€"Governor Clif. ford of Massachusetts who, it had been inâ€" dicated by our government, would probâ€" ably act as its commissioner, went to Euro$ and made a long tour, Two mon ng.t.ho English government inâ€" dicated t it was tired of waiting for induced to believe that commissioner, THE POSITION OF THB ENGLISE GOYRERNâ€" is a very strong and a very clear one.

As the ‘matter now stands it is one of THE MOST SERIOUS UNSETTLED TROUBLES which our government has eyer had m‘ its hands. gl?hero is no hllin%whn exiâ€" gencies may arise from it, and our ‘gw ernmenti,takes the wise course in pu its ntvly into the best possible condition, even if it does not intend to make an emphatic refusal of the whole Canadian claim, as it is now believed it will do. poks If MEAX war? Genesal Butler t;:bd last evening to a Herald reporter the idea of connectâ€" ing the naval preparation with any deâ€" monstration growing out of the fisheries claim ‘ was preposterous ; he said that there was some reason for supposing that Cuban intervention ‘might ‘bring on trouble with Spain, and expréessed himâ€" . solf as bniniin sympathy with such interâ€" vention. The commissions for adjusting the Canadian claims had ten years from the time of their appointment, in which to do this work. _ But four and a half years have yet passed, and these commission ers have never held a meeting. He could see no reason to expect war with England, even if the fisheries clsims were much larger than they are. In short, of all eonjectures on the subject, he thought this the wildest. Collector Simmons being called upon at the custom house, also expressed opinions almost identical with those above. Although lately in conversation with gentlemen who would certainly have known of such impending disaster, he had received no hint of it even. Nor could he see how it was possible that such results would follow in connection with the fisheries question. He highly complimented the ‘Washington correâ€" pondent of the Herald, as an efficient worker, and one very rarely wrong or out of the way in the character of his inâ€" formation, and thought the report worthy of special notice, as coming from so reliaâ€" ble a sourc 6.
