(Cries of “None.”) it was necessary to point out that those who were responsibie for the government of Ireland agreed with us in the 5 ions that we could not stand as we were, and a plan, against which we have pro- posed ours. Many of you, probably, and a consider. able number of the people who are Protestants, feel opposed in conscience to the payment of the grant to jaynooth College, and many who are Koman Catho- hes may feel not less grie atthe payment of the sum of £40,000 to the byterians under the name of Regium Donum. What tagthe meaning of these two grants? They are the buttresses of the Irish nation- al Church, (Hear, hear.) The Irish Church is such 8 contradiction of all the Leng on on which church establishments ever have founded and recom- mended and of all the teelings pt the conn 04, I e judg. ment of the civilized world that, it ia impossible to get It tolerated except conditions; and there- fore the policy of those who desire its continuance has been to maintain and to multiply these grants I have called the buttresses of the in Church, But it was felt that the Maynooth and the Regium Do- num were not ga ny that there must be some More of those butt for the wall was weak, and was ing to horribly outwards, so that there was a fear tt would fail. Therefore a new, buttress was devised in the shape of a foundation of @ Roman Catholic university; and another buttress Was devised—viz., the im @ _Reglum Do- nam. Ip the Houseof Commons I reads letter, written by the authority of Lord Derby in the year of 1867, with it to the increase of the Regium Donum, in which he said that he was extremely sorry it was too late todo anything that year, but when the estimates for the next year were framed the matter would be considered, which ts und to mean that the prayer would be granted. I read that letter in the House of Commons from the first Minister of the Crown. The present Prime Minister said that he was not in any manner bound by what was done by the government of Lord Derby. 1 thought that rather odd—(a Pads Spree that he was not merely a member of Lord Derby's govern- Ment, but that he was the leader of the House of Commons—the man without wiom no Prime Minis- ter could possibiy write such a letter; and [ thought it still more odd when I read the address in the news- papers ihe other day, in which ¢ saw that the pre- sent Prirae Minister has deen upon terma of brotherly kindness with Lord Derby for the last twenty years; they had had but one common soul and spirit, one thought and mind in public adfairs; and so it ap- pears that there are (wo faces to this deity which may be turned about aliernacely as occasion serves, (Cheers and laughter.) When Lord Derby has made an inconvenient declaration, then, indeed, we had nothing to do with the government of Lord Derby; but wen there ty no taconvenient declaration in the case, and when it is known that the name of Lord Derby, of whom from many points of view can speak with cordial respect—when it is known that the name of Lord Derby ts by far tho best name that can be eaeoe to the country at the approach of a general election—then, indeed, a compicte amal mation with Lord Derby appears to be effected, and you are invoked in his name to support the present government. ioe and laughter.) But, gentle- men, whetter it be Lord Derby or Mr. Disraeli, any one else or Mr, ahybody dlse, that is not the question in view. The question in view is this. Are we, these three kingdoms of her Majesty’s, ta be one united kiugdom or are we not? (Loud cheers.) You have been united with Ireland as far as law could unite you, and so far as force and the strong hand of military power could unite you—you have heen united, if you call it united, for 700 years; the union that has subsisted between you has at no period been a source of strength or security to this country, but has at all periods been a souree of wonder and of scandal to the civilized world, (Cheers.) Now, gentiemen, you are the persons to whom it is to be referred in the last resort how long these matters are to be carried on. Do you intend or do you not intend that oar reia- tions with Ireland shall continue much as they have been? I ask you, the people of Engiand, be you con- servatives, be you liberais, be you radicals, or what you like, do you think it ls honorable to you as @ civilized) people, or as a Christian people, that your relations towards Ireland shail continue ‘in this state? it is the strong band of civil authority and of armed force, and not the love or respect for the laws or for the British connection, that preserves the peace tn ire- land, (Cheers.) ‘his is the question you have to answer, and thia is the question for a reply to which ou will be responsible.

SPAIN. The English Candidate for the Throne. Paris (Oct. 11) jeorrespondence of the London Stand- ard, Spanish affairs continue the chief topic of the day. The general feeling here is that,in spite of the de- nials of the seml-oMcial press, there is every reason to believe that Prim and Serrano mean to’ propose the buko of Edinburg to the Qortes as their future King, The argument of the London Tin which can find nothing more conclusive against it than the old womanish plea that being a Protestant he could not reign over & Catholic country, is viewed here as weak in the extreme, Your contemporary ought to know that the present revolution 1s quite as anti-Pa- pal as it is anti-Rourbonian, and the fact of their f- ture sovereign being what the London Times calls “@ heretic’ would not be a bar against his election. Your contemporary might have retlected that there ig. very notable example of a “heretic” sovereign Tuling successfully over a country quite as_ intensely Catholic as Spain itself. King Leopold I, of Bel- gium, was none the less beloved and respected by iis subjects because he did not go to mass, Such childish reasoning m @ paper of such standing is gineaing, No doubt the “silly season’ accounts for it. Geueral Prim on the Future, A telegram from Paris of October 12, evening. re- General Prim has addressed a letter to the wis journal Le Gaulots thanking it for the sympathy it has shown for the popular movement in Spain. The general expresses astonishment at the tinpa- tience of that portion of the l'rench press which con- siders that Spain 1s not setting to her work fast enough and alds:— Eight days suficed for us to overthrow a dynasty 300 years old and to estabilsh a new government. We shall not delay now to consolidate our position through a constituent Asseinbly on the basis of our programme, which is kuown to you, We shall then have succeeded in attaining the political ideal of contemporary Spain, namely, a reaily coustitutional monarehy founded upon the most extended liberal basis compatible with that kind of government.

A resolution was offered by Mr. Farns- worth, of Rhode Island, to refer to the Committee on the State of the Charch to inquire whether it would not be proper for the interests of the Church that parish records should be annually made and the number returned to the diocesan convention of all persons baptized in this Church or in church in communion with this Church, but who have never been confirmed, and also of all confirmed members of this Church who reside within parochial limits, which motion of reference was carried. On motion of Rev. Wm. H. Clarke the Committee on Canons was instructed to inquire into the convenience to change the name of the House to that of the “House of Deputies,” instead of ‘clerical and lay deputies,” On motion of Mr. Weish, of Pennsylv: the same canons are to consider the propriety making it obligatory upon all new dioceses to compose their standing committee of an equal number of ia men and laymen. Mr. Samuel 8. Fogg of New York, st that the number of copies of the jour- nal ordered to be printed—6,000—would not be suffi- cient; that 6,100 would barely cover the number re- juired, and hence he moved that 6,600 coples be or- ered printed. Tue Secretary said that the cost of the stereotype plates and the printing of 6,000 coples would be about $4,000, and the addition could be coyered by an extra outlay of about $500, involving only paper and presswork. THE EDUCATION QUESTION AGAIN. Message No. 34 from the House of Bishops was here received, also No. 35, in which it is announced that the bishops concnr in resolutions three ana five of the series on Christian education, and non-con- cur in the rest; and these messages and also No. 36 were referred to the Committee on Canons to inquire whether @ committee of conference 1s neces- sary. ‘These matters were disposed of, the resolutions to rint the journal wae reconsidered, and the Secre- 'y Was authorized to print an adequate number, PETITION FROM THE ONEIDA INDIANS. The Mouse of Bishops transmitted a petition from the Oneida Indians, submitted to their House by Bishop Kemper, and a draft of a joint letter to the Secretary of the Interior, that the Oneidas may be protected in their present homes, which they ob- tained through the help of the Episcopal Church. Some few of the tribe have parnued to the agents to sell a@ portion of the Onelda tract in Wisconsin to the government; these few only are listened to by the agents, The tribe had no more land than font need. They nearly all belong to the Lt po Church, and wish the aid of the Church authorities. The agents are continually interfering, and they can receive no relief from them. Judge Otis moved that the Prestdent and Secretary of the House be directed = ain the letter of the bishops on the part of the jeputics. ‘he letter proposed by the bishops to the Secretary of the Interior on the reservation of the Oneida In- dians in Wisconsin was again read, and the motion of Judge Otis was open for consideration. Mr. Welsh believed some examination was necessary, and he thought tt was best to refer it to the delega- tion from Wisconsin for a report. Mr. Ruggles is in favor of anything proposed for the protection of the poor Indian; but he doubted the policy of this Con- vention officially interfering with their relations with the government. Mr. Welsh resumed, and be- lieved that if they signed papers without due consideration they would sink to the lever: of the mei litician. Rev. Dr. Dekoven re- commended immediate action on the sub- ject, as the delegates from Wisconsin fully endorsed. Judge Battle, of North Carolina, said that hard cases were the quicksand of the law, and tt may be with this Convention. If this Convention proposed to relieve the grievances of the tndtans, all other oppressed or suffering people will «ppeat to us, Let us confine ourselves to the business of the Church and abstain from entering upon something which inay lead us we know not where. Rev. Dr. Mead felt, on hearing the letters read, as if we should act at once, but prudence should guide, What have wo to do with the government of the United States ? Uf we commence the government may ask some- thing from us. His heart was concerned, but pra- dence requires them to abstain. Mr. Pringle Smith, of South Carolina, spoke of this matier as one ot reat ‘importance. ‘The vermment has no lecided policy towards the Indians; its theory ts that the nation Is the guardian of tyg Indian tribes, and 1 is the theory of this Con¥ention that the Church is the guardian of their moral and sptritual welfare, and the government would listen if the Church should speak oftcially and make suggestions. He then detailed the fraud practised by a railroad company upon the Osage Indians In a land bargain, and we cannot evangelize them so long a3 we make them subjects of our cupidity, which the govern- ment itself desires to prevent. The Oncidas come and Bray ‘us to help them and protect tiem against frand. in there any politics ia that? We do pro- pose to relieve the grievances of all humanity, but ho) this Convention will take @ proper view and look upon ii a8 @ means of spreading the Gospel among @ Class of inhabitants whom it is our «duty to raise op with all the means at our command, He wished the whole subject would be considered and a memoria passed in regard to the whole treatment of the in- dian tribes, Rey. Dr. Dekoon gave details of the Oneidas; they bold 65,000 acres, imber land. A majority of then are churchmen and civilized. Some, not Christian- ized, are drunken roamers, and it is they who are pat up by the specuiators, who have an eye on the foud, to a movement to sell, To present this petition to the Secretary, with the endorsement of the con- vention, would not be meddiing in politics, and to refuse it would be wrong. Rev. Dr. Craik, the prest- dent, ieft the chair and took the floor, and referred to the precedent established by the convention of 1350 in matters of the kind, The iniuence of the mermabers of the House aa citizens may tell powerfully upon the government: the an‘iuence of the Chureh ta nothing. If you move as citizens and organize to Influence the government they would doa noble work: but if, as @ Christian body, as a Church, we ask the government to adopt a particular policy in regard to this question, why not ask them fo do the same in regard to other ques- tions? And then they, a9 a Church, would be borne down by the whirtwind of politics, Mr. Welsh changed his motion and moved the reference to a special committee of three cl men and tiuree lay- en, for ttis necessary to lave futl information be- fore we act. Governor Fish thought a refer. ence unnecessary, ae the facts are pretty well known. The ‘question before the House ig that of concurrence. The Oneidas are chiidren of Now York, and some are still 1a the State, and he was brought offtctally in contact with them, and he fully aympathizes with ther wrongs, which are many. But have we, as a Church, anything to do With the question’ (tis a question of property, of an interna lian policy, and not of extending nutter belonging to the Church ches were rent asunder by bringing in f feeling and sympathy of a quasi politi- this Church has Kept aloof trom all sach ations, and although war had separated them on { tlt samme question as soon as the pressnre of military force waa removed they are again united as they were thirty years ago. However much we may feel on tia sutyeel before the House, let us act a individuals and we can exert more influence than the united voir f the Church, He f fore moved. instead of ence, a& non-concurrenc Rey, Dr, Stubbs, of New Jersey, thought it a sin for any clergyman to keep silent on this matter, Tt t# not a question of property, The Onetdas plead to protect them, that the agenis want to drive their chaplain from them and deprive them of thew Christianity. He would not recognize the lent cited by Dr. Craik, for if thas Convention was ality Of an wnehristian act let ws abjure it, God forbid that the poor Indians should ever appeal to us and we refuse; and, too, on the miserable ground of non-inter- ference with the polities of the country. ‘The question then reenrred on the motion of Mr. Welsh to refer the Oneida petivou and the letter of tke bishops to a committee, resuliing in 41, nae 80 the motion to refer was Jost. ir. Hamilton then renewed lus motion to non- concur. Judge Battle seconded the motion, be- nev! the action by the biehops advocated by some to be a departure from the couservative course heretofore pursaed, and we shal) have political de- bates tn thus body, At the reqnest of tie Rev. Dr. Muban the and petition were again road, ‘The Doctor could mot detect the sMightes: suade of politics m the letter, and tt is always the right of the wwilerior to petition his superior for redress. {t ia no imverteronce, it may be fntervention. We are bound as reasonable meu to make this distinction. There te danger that the fear of interference may lead to excessive tinitity, to make the Chutoh servile. Mr. Welsh and Jndge Conyngham spoke in favor of the resolution, and it Was carried by & vast inajority. Afternoon Session. PRAYER NOOK FOR FORRIGN CONGREGATIONS. At two o'clock the Convention reasseinhled. Rey. Dr. Pierce, of Alabama, sald lie pressuted a few days ago a resolution seeking for an oxpression of opinion either from the ilouse of Bishops ora commitics to be appointed for the paryow oa the propricty of allowing congregarions Waigh use ta translated English liturgy to use the hymns and prayers they were @cousiomed to in their native countries, subject to such modifications as the Church might devise. The sent Book of Prayer used by German congregations was wholly unlike that of which it professed to be a translation, It was rendered in freé newspaper German, and had, con- sequently, litte of the it and beauty of the original init, Neither the Lutherans nor Swedes cou'd use our Prayer Book, as it failed to give them exaci!y what they needed in the matter of certain erroneaien: of expression to which they were ac customed, On motion of Dr, Abercombie the subject was re- ferred to the Committee on the Revision of the Prayer book. ~ DIVORCE, Dr. Haight presented the report of the committee to whom had been recommitted the divorce ques- 0) foilo x uw Church shall solemnize rimony in any case where there iaa divorced or husband of either party still living, but this canon shall not be held to apply to the innocent erty ina divorce for the cause of adultery or to partica once divorced seeking to be united again, That the House concurs in the resolution sub- mitted to this House in me: No, 32 by the House of Bishops on the ivoree, Judge Comstock o1 an amendment that no minister of this Church shall sole a marriage in 4 mi of either of here @ party in cases of uIvoree for adultery, nor to any case where the prior mar- riage relation shall have terminated by the death of husband or wife, ‘The amendment and likewise an additional amend- ment something similar, after some debate, were lost and the original resolution adopted. RITUALISM—MAJORITY REPORT. Rev. Dr, Patrick read the report from the Commit- tee on Canons, which was as follows :— The Committee on Canons, to whom were ret sundry memorials touching the conduct of pul worship and the administration of the rites and 6a- craments of the Church, would respectfully the following preample and resolutions, and wi the; recommen.

Rev. De. oe eee ‘i ev. Dr. Howe, Pennsylvania, presented a minority report which was longer than that of the majority, but agreeing substantially with it, The Jast resolution was somewhat different and more de- cided, being as follows:— Readlved by this Convention the House of Bishops concvr- ring, that the burning of lights in the order or in the holy communion, the burning of incenna, reverence t9 the hoiy table or to the clements therein, making the sign of the cross except when prescribed in the rubric in and during divine ser- vice or the celebration of the Lord’s Supper are Innovait on ou mode of conducting public ‘worahip and foreign to the communion order of the Church, ‘To-day at twelve o'clock, was set apart for the dis- cussion of the report.

Gy Se No Ye ‘The Fourth regiment of Zouaves, National Guard, were mspected and mustered yesterday at Tompe kins square. General J. H. Liebenau and a number of other officers of position in the National Guard were on the ground for some time before the regi- ment appeared. It was s quarter to three o'clock when the line was formed in the square. The detay was caused by the regiment laving to attend a pre- sentation at the residence of Major Mott, in Second avenue, The ladies of East Fourtcenth street, de- siring to honor the regiment of which M ajor Mott was a fleid officer, provided two very fine gnidous for prosentation to it. The ceremony being con- cluded the march to the square was resumed, It can be Properly said of t) ‘th that although it ig a small corps—the smaliest paraded this year— it isgnot by any means a poor regiment. The men march and look well, and although some of the officers appear rather too young to exercise a proper commant over their companies the discipline is wood; at least, it is equal to that of most regiments of the National Guard. It mustered last year a much larger force, but the materiel was very bad. There was no discipline and the officers were as negligent as the men, Lieutenant Colonel Maxwell, the present command officer, alfered ail this and mace very beneficial ol in the command, The roughs of the regiment Nave weeded Gut and the rematader are willing and obedient soldiers. Very many changes for the better have diso taken place in the line officers. ‘There 1 for believing that by next year’s Ps the regiment Z vette Ty larger and will weil officered and iplined, ‘The review was conducted with due attention to the instractions. The march past was not superior to the performances of the other ents that have appeared in Tompkins square this tall, but it was tolerably good. The most of the officerssainted well, but some did not look at the reviewing officer, The regiment has not & band, but the drum corps made all the noise that was required. The Sixty-ninth regiment having arrived on the ground soon after the review of the Fourth was com- menced, the latter corps was transferred to the northern side of the square for inspection and mus- ter. Major Skidmore, [ General of the Fourth brigade (who was not in fail dress uniform), ip’ fea and musiered each company very care- fully, He should, however, have made the ins on, tion of the regiment by companies first w of fi were actually mustered before they were ini which ts contrary to instrnctions and. withouw Eine eu mustered them.
