who labour strenuously in spreading the grand truths of religion among the lower classes , and the thanks of the public are due to them for the good they may have done . But the whole thing has struck us as having something of a Cheap Jack performance about it . Nor do we approve of
unqualified persons , who fancy they have a " call , " taking upon themselves to instruct others . Previous training is as necessary in order to enable a man to teach religion as to teach Latin and Greek , or French , German , Hebrew , Mathematics , & c , & c . Our faith , moreover , is in the
silent worker , more than in those who advertise their performances from every housetop . There is a large army of men and women , who are constantly moving about among our poor and criminal classes . Their quiet work is worth a thousandfold the spasmodic efforts of whole regiments of
Moodies and Sankeys , well-intentioned and earnest though these latter may be . The cultivation of religion and sound morals as a dxdy , not as the result of a factitious or momentary enthusiasm , is the labour on which we set the highest
value . Moreover , the agents of these revivalists were becoming just a leetle too obtrusive in their house to house visitations . For these reasons , we repeat , we do not regret very seriously the departure from among us of Messrs . Moody and Sankey .
The Mansion House Relief Fund for the sufferers by the inundations in France is gradually swelling to a handsome total , and we trust the efforts of our respected brother the Lord Mayor and the committee that is working with him
will be a grand success . The proposition that the funds being raised in other large commercial centres should be tacked on to , and so form part and parcel of the London fund , seems reasonable enough . The subscription would then be more national in its character . All the committee
and the public must strive to secure is that the fund shall be worthy both of France and of England . As regards the Carlists , they seem to be in a bad way just now . The Alphonsist commanders have shown much energy in their recent operations , but the real results are not as yet clear .
The Carlists have so often been beaten , past all hope of recovery , and so often have they proved themselves wonderfully vigorous in their hopeless condition , that we may be excused for withholding our belief from all the Madrid reports of decisive victory . To ns in England it matters
little which wins , Alphonsism or Carlisin . Our chief anxiety is that a struggle so long continued , and which has caused such loss of life and property , should come speedily to a termination . Whether this " consummation devoutly to be wished " has been achieved is not beyond all question .
In the French Assembly , M . Rouhcr , the great advocate of the Imperialists , has delivered a very effective speech , proving to the dissatisfaction of M . Gambetta that there is still a largo amount of vitality in the Bonapartist cause .
Less likely things may happen than a restoration of the Inrperial Brcjimc , more especially if the rumours be true that the Left is becoming less and less cohesive . But we shall avoid prophecy , no Jess as regards the future of France than as regards that of Spain .

The popular and respected proprietor of Cremorne Gardens , Bro . John Baum , took his annual complimentary benefit on Monday last , which , to judge by the numbers present , was a great success . The entertainments consisted of
elegant and artistic ballets , flying performance of Lu Lu , palmistry by De Vere , and dancing by the general company , who seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves . There was a maypole on the lawn , and a grand display of fireworks concluded the evening ' s entertainment .
