      Desirable as it may be that the most violent religious and political agitations should , as a rule , end in smoke , perhaps it is just as well for this country that such a termination was vouchsafed to the famous Gunpowder Plot . Indeed , had that unpretending arrangement -,- ended literally in sm _________ oke

      the consequences ^ - — might ^^^ hav e ^^ been very serious indeed m . Not , only is it to be presumed that James the First of England would have suddenly abdicated his throne , without any preparation whatever ,-on the morning of the 6 th of November , 1605 , butmoreoverit is tolerably certain that Dr . Temple would

      never , have received , his mitre from the hands of Mr . Gladstone M . . But this is . not all ; for a catastrophe far greater than the mere exclusion of a highly-polished and intellectual man from the bench of the English Bishops would most certainly , as the Americans say , have eventuated . Dr . Pusey would have

      absolutely lost another opportunity of " making solemn protest , " a piece of business , whatever it may be , for which , if we may be allowed respectfully to suggest it , that learned divine seems specially to have been created . ' From the date of the celebrated Gorham casewhen Dr . Pusey signed himself down one of a

      band of thirteen , champions of the o faith , and most solemnly declared in so many words that the Church of England no longer was the repository of the truth , the-then decision of the Privy Council taking effect , to the week before last , when he again raised his voice in another pious wail against Essays and

      Reviews , he has been a sort of lachrymose Jonah , or , to speak more correctly , a kind of Greek Chorus , that looks on at the more serious portions of- the action , groaning , and shouting or' orot , and doing nothing else whatever . But there is , fortunately , no reason for gloomy regret . Guy Faux lived before th the e age acre of of B Brvan ryant t and and M Mav ay . and anri such surh matches nifltrh ^ s as as he "h f * had haA about about

      him absolutely declined to , light on the box or anywhere else . Hence the Church of England is flourishing in 1869 , luminaries and all , and Dr . Pusey has the luck to fall upon one of his happiest opportunities .

      supposed interests , once more bursts into a flood of party tears , and parades the double split in the camp , to the great edification of the reasoning world outside . The truth is , we have not * much patience with Dr . Pusey . Willing , as all must be , who respect erudition and bow to an honoured name , to make every allowance for such intellectual vagaries as always inevitably

Pusey obtrudes y himself on public notice in a posi- , tion even more despicable , namely that' of a mean truckster to the leader of the very party he and his set have from first to last had to regard as their most merciless enemies . Whatever

      may be thought of the intellectual capabilities of Lord Shaftesbury and his Evangelical backers , it must be honestly avowed that their repudiation of an alliance with what they regard as one deadly error , for the purpose of stamping out another , is perfectly consistent and strictly logical . Exeter Hall for once

      has certainly the pull of Oxford , and the rebuke it has administered to its cringing antagonist is highly to its eredit . And more than this . It is highly to its interest as well , for could anything more disastrous be conceived than a friendship which would absolutely rob the May Meetings of their very text ? Dr .

      Pusey , his dreadful doings , his awful unbelief , his possible dungeons under his rooms at Christchurch , his paganism and his income , all are absolutely necessary as rich food for charitable and believing Christian audiences .
