The Padre and the Bishop, Presching recendy at Sepulchre's Holborn, the Rev. H. Hadley spoke of the worldly grandeur of the chief ministers of the Church of England. He did | not eay that Bishops made any personal profit for themselves, bas year after year they stood before the nation as grandees, sa regal | magnates, and the result was that the people would not have their mamago. He had always shown respect to his euperiors in this matter, but now he could have no respect and would throw it lo

the winds and deviste God's wrath against this sin which was at the root of the power of the Church.
