THE CHURCH CONGRESS. I The Church Congress opened at Portsmouth on Tuesday, and the various meetings were well attended. Services were held in several churches, but the Bishop of Carlisle, who preached at St. Thomas', drew the largest congregation, he having been president of last year's congress. He referred to the great political change which had been effected, and averred that the new voters would not advocate the disestablishment of the Church of the poor. Some religionists had asked for disestablishment without disendowment, but that would be a poor electioneering cry, and which he did not think would be accepted by anyone. The Bishop of Winchester, aa presi- dent of the congress, delivered an address to a large audience in the Congress Hall. He dwelt on the subject of the revised version, claiming that those who had done the work had sacrificed nothing in their attempts to be accurate, however hard it might be to translate the idiom of the language into that of another. A long discussion followed, in which general approval was given to tfw w..rk of. the revisers. The re-arrangement of the Prayer-book services was discussed at the night piecing.
