but it was almost impossible, by the Army regulations, for them to do so. What they wanted to enable chuplains to overcome these dimculties were church centres in every garrison, social places where they could meet the soldiers as friends, and the establishment of a lay agency for the Army. Captain COLOMB, R.N., said a chaplain did not see the full extent of his duty, and was too apt to think that a sailor was different from anybody else. That was a mistake, and if they were to get hold of the British seaman they must make him feel that they were ditto" to him. (Laughter.) One of the greatest difficulties a chaplain had to deal with was that on board ship he had to deal with several churches.

Mr. J. CLISHAM, quartermaster of the Royal Scots Fusiliers: the Rev. T. S.

TREANOR, chaplain of The Downs" Mission to Seaman. Deal; and Sergeant CAMPBELL. of the Royal Marines, continued the discussion. The Rev. Dr.

EDGHILL, Chaplain-General, in closing the discussion, observed that the Church ought to see that she fulflled the obligations she took upon herself. (Hear, hear.) The Church of England, he was bound to say, had done less for the soldiers than any other body of Christians. They wanted a standing committee or some authority to look after the interests of soldiers so far as Church privileges are concerned. The meeting then closed. At the evening section meeting the subject of the Prayer-book -the rearrangement of services and supplementary services-was discussed.

Lord ALWINE COMPTON, the Dean of Worcester and Prolocutor of the Canterbury Convocation, in his paper said that in the matter of rearrangement of the services the general principles of our action must be to do all things to edification. all things decently and in order. As to supplementary services, there was no limit of special occasions when such services were desirable, but the great difficulty as regarded any services for public use in church was one of law. There seemed to be only one body qualified by its position to take the needful steps in the preparation of such services, and that was Convocation. There they had the bishops assembled together as the chosen representatives of the clergy, and amongst them they would find those best qualified for such work.

The Rev. Canon VENABLES also read an interesting paper. discussion was sustained by the Rev. R. RANDALL.

Dr. HALE. of the American Church, and Mr. BERESFORD HOPE, M.P., who said what they wanted was a revised but not an altered Prayer-book. The Bishop of CARLISLE, who presided, said that the bishops did not like to find fault with a clergyman who used his Church too much, but it was quite true that they had reached the limits of the law in the matter of services.

WEDNESDAY. The sectional meetings of the Congress were resumed this morning and were well attended. The President (the Bishop of Winchester) presided at the meeting in the Congress Hall, and the Dean of Wells at that in the Lecture Hall. At the afternoon meeting in the Congress Hall the Bishop of Newcastle presided, while the Bishop of Winchester occupied the chair at the Lecture Hall meeting. The opening meeting in the Congress Hall was devoted to the discussion of women's work in the Church: (a), as sisters and deaconesses; (b), rescue work in towns and (c), the Girls' Friendly Society.

Mr. JOHN PARES (Southsea), in a paper on the first branch of the subject. contended that the Scriptures contained sufficient references to warrant the agency women's organisations in connection with the work of Christianity. The system on which sisters and deaconesses were appointed was sound, but they needed guidance and supervision. Their services in connection with the Church were becoming more and more appreciated, and it would be well if they were permitted to take a larger share in the work of the Church.

(Cheers.) The Rev. Canon THYNNE read a paper on 46 Rescue Work in Towns." in which he urged that it was from the religious rather than the political or the social side that the Congress must consider the subject. The considerations which should guide the selection of workers were pointed out, and Canon Thyune dwelt upon the spirit in which the work should be undertaken. It must be wholly religious. Mrs.

TOWNSHEND described the work of the Girls Friendly Society, which now numbered amongst its members 115,000 women and girls of all ranks, ages, and occupations. and the special object of which is the prevention of moral evils. The Bishop of OXFORD and the Rev. R. C.

PILLING took part in the discussion which followed. The morning meeting at the Lecture-hall was devoted to the consideration of The Influence upon each other of Religion and Art." Mr. J. D. SEDDING observed that religion and art ran like warp and woof in the fabric of human history, and advocated the embellishment of churches, asking if they would not claim that a figure of Christ upon the cross should be reared upon the screen at Westminster Abbey to redeem the utterly pagan aspect of the place.

They religious paintings and crucifixes in their homes. schools, mission rooms, and mission chapels; why exclude them from their churches Mr. F. S. PALGRAVE adopted the same arguments, and claimed that church painting and sculpture should furnish as it were a kind of visible accompaniment to prayer and praise.

Mr. J. C. HORSLEY. R.A., who followed.

confined his address to art schools and art practice in their relation to a moral and religious life. He strongly condemned the custom of employing undraped female models in art schools. Mr. BERESFORD HOPE, M.P.. said he was pleased to find that religious art had made so much progress as had latterly been the case.

In a church of his own, on which he spent much time and attention. he had erected a beautiful crucifix in high relief, and although it was not generally known. a prominent artist in London was preparing a large crucifix for St. Paul's Cathedral. Canon HOARE differed entirely from Mr.

Beresford Hope. It would be no victory to be able to place a crucifix in a church or even in St. Paul's Cathedral. for whilst a few people might admire, the great body of thinking Englishmen would deplore. Mr.

MELVILLE GREEN observed that if art was to be the handmaid of religion it must be intelligible. The Rev. A. J. ROBINSON (Whitechapel) thought that too much was made of art as a refining influence on the working classes.

He depreciated the introduction of crucifixes into our churches. The meeting was also addressed by the Rev. E. R. Christie.

the Rev. R. Randall, Messrs. J. Bourne, F.

J. Candy, The Dean of WELLS opened a discussion on "The Cathedral in iis Relation to the Diocese and the Church at large," in the lecture hall in the afternoon. and expressed the opinion that the history of our cathedrals was little less than the record of ideals unrealised, large resources wasted. and corruptio optimi. During the last fifty years there had been.

however, a change for the better. Other speakers followed. At the afternoon meeting, under the presidency of the Bishop of Newcastle, the subject of discussion was Evangelising Agencies Supplementary to the Parochial System." The Dean of MANCHESTER gave an account of the territorial parochial system, which was from the first Episcopal, as it would probably remain, whatever were the changes before the Church. The Rev. C.

M. OWEN gave an account of what he had done for evangelising the deaf and dumb. of whom there were 13,300 in England and Wales alone. Except in the dioceses of London and Winchester, there were no organisations for dealing with those poor people by ministering to their wants and to the interests of their souls. He and Mr.

Pearce, a lay reader. bad been working in the Diocese of Winchester, and had obtained a return of all the deaf and dumb within it, and by bringing the Gospel within their reach they had presented 58 candidates for confirmation. They had 50 communicants. and one deaf and dumb clergyman. He hoped that in every diocese there would be means of organisation for evangelising the deaf and dumb.

(Applause.) Several other clergymen and lay preachers spoke on the subject. The working men's meeting was held in the evening in the Congress Hall, which was crowded in every part. The Bishop of WINCHESTER, who presided. said working men had their difficulties, and one of them was being deceived by people who tried to persuade them that there was no truth in religion, and that if there was no one knew anything about it. The Chairman adduced a number of arguments and illustrations of the necessity and truth of revealed religion.

The Bishop of CARLISLE spoke of what working men and Bishops had in common, as men, as Englishmen, and as Christians. He advised them to be thankful that they had a Church which was open to all, and not to allow it to be pulled down. He denied that the support of the clergy came out of the taxes of the people. Colonel EVERITT addressed the meeting on the subject of social immorality. The Dean of GLOUCESTER appealed to working men for their help to make the Church of England all that God intended her to be, to help her to stem the moral evils of intemperance and impurity.

The Dean of MANCHESTER also addressed the meeting which was very enthusiastic throughout. THURSDAY. This Congress was continued to-day at Portsmouth, eight meetings, including one for working women and one for soldiers and sailors, having taken place. Tho proceedings at the Congress Hall in the morning dealt with the teaching work of the Church, the subjects being divided into first, exegesis of Scripture second. doctrine and ethics; and third, Church History.

The readers of papers were Canon Westcott. Prebendary Wace, and Canon Creighton. At the Arst sectional meeting the subject discussed was the Church and the Printing Press. and among the speakers were Mr. A.

H. Hallam Murray, the Rev. Charles Bullock, Mr. B. Reed, and the Rev.

E. Maclure. The discussion turned chiefly upon the experiences of clergymen in connection with the newspaper press, and a general opinion was expressed that the clergy did not, as a rule, avail themselves as fully as they might of the influence of the press in forwarding the work of the Church. In the afternoon. at the Congress Hall, the position and work of the Church in India was discussed, as also was the question of clergy pensions.

The Rev. C. J. Robinson, of West Hackney, who was among the speakers, contended that, in the interests of parishes of the Church at large and of the clergy themselves, the retirement of the aged and incapacitated was desirable. There were, he thought.

few sadder sights than to see a man, whose sense of duty had given way to indifference. compelled by poverty to cling to the post for which he knew hiiself to be unfit.

-The usual consumers' rate was signed.

Wheeler and carried.

WATER SUPPLY. -The Surveyor said he thought the new drains for the water supply would cost rather under £300. He also said that he was obtaining ten gallons per minute from the works. DRAINAGE contractors for the drainage work, Messre. Russell, applied for £75 on account, and a certificate was handed in from Mr.

Mann, stating that Messrs. Russell were entitled to this cheque was drawn in accordance with the certifcate. NOTICE OF Mr. Thorn gave notice that at the next meeting he would move that Dr. W.

The twenty-Alth Church Congress commenced tickets on Tuesday morning at Portsmouth. Nearly so 2000 had been disposed of up to Monday night, that in one important particular its success was assured. The gathering has been warmly neighbourhood.

welcomed The by the people and of Portsmouth and its Mayor Corporation attended of the service conducted in the the parish service, church, and where the Bishop Carlisle also were present at the opening meeting, and formally welcomed the Bishop of the Diocese and the Congress on their first appearance at Portsmouth. The Bishop of Winchester, who is the president for the year, tendered the hearty thanks of the Congress to the Mayor and his municipal colleagues for their kind welcome. The committee had not only the desire to enlist the kindly feeling of the dwellers in this important group of towns. but had also remembered that it was the greatest naval station of the greatest naval power in the world, and they felt it a great encouragement to be welcomed so kindly by the Chief Magistrate and the municipal authorities. (Applause.) As soon as the Municipal Deputation had retired from the platform their places were taken by a Deputation of the Nonconformists of the district, headed by Mr.

J. GRIFFIN, who read an address welcoming the Congress very heartily and fraternally on their visit to the neigh- bourhood. Noth withstanding the ditferences in their ecclesiastical organisation, they were pleased to offer their sincere congratulationson the important workdone by the Church of England throughout the country in spreading the Gospel, and on their success in education. temperance, and social reform. Two other members of the Deputation having emphasised the text of the address, the Bishop of WINCHESTER replied, saying that he, and he was sure the whole assembly, felt deeply touched by the kindness of the words which had been addressed to them, and he begged to thank the Deputation for those words and good wishes, deeply to be valued as coming from fellow Christians.

(Applause.) At present they must work on different lines, but he hoped they might be parallel lines, or, better still. convergent lines, which would ultimately bring them together. (Applause.) He heartily thanked the Deputation, and wished that every blessing God could pour down on them might be theirs. (Applause.) The PRESIDENT (the Bishop of Winchester) delivered his inaugural address to a crowded audience at 2 o'clock in the Congress Hall, a large wooden building near the Esplanade at Southsea, specially erected for the principal meetings of the Congress. His Lordship, after welcoming the members of the Congress to the ancient and historic diocese of Winchester, said that last May I he had the honour to present the revised version of the Old Testament to the Convocation of Canterbury.

He should like to say, as chairman of committee of Convocation and also of the Old Testament Revisers, that when fifteen years ago it was resolved to begin the work of revision, there was no intention on the part of those who moved in it to force it on against the will of the Church or of the people, or to force it when finished upon their general acceptance. On the contrary, it was thought, wisely or unwisely, that whereas so much light had been thrown on the criticism and on the language of Holy Scripture, an attempt should be made to let the Church at large share in that which was till then the exclusive possession of the few, and that when the work was done it should be freely laid before the Church and the world for their criticism. A Church Congress seemed a fitting opportunity for discussing its merits and defects. Another subject of the day was the Church and the printing press. The printing press had been a great blessing to the world, but they were feeling keenly the state of those who used the press for evil.

Legislative proposals for the repression of intemperance had become a political as well as a moral question. The attitude of the Church towards movements in foreign churches had assumed new proportions since the Vatican Council in 1870, and he asked their brotherly sympathy for those who were striving under ditticulties to maintain the Catholic faith free from Roman usurpation and from rationalising error. There were again considerations which arose out of the almost appalling increase of our home populations, and emigration was the only safety valve, which as yet failed to relieve the perilous pressure. Cognate with these questions was that of Church defence, and undoubtedly the best defence WaS earnest, well-organised, and united workers. Purity of life could not be maintained by purity of female life only, and their aim should be to train up Christain boys and men from childhood in habits of purity, self-restraint, and holiness.

Since the Congress was meeting on the present occasion at the greatest naval station of the greatest of maritime nations, they had naturally thought of directing attention to the delicate and difficult question of the doctrine of Holy Scripture and the attitude of the Church with respect to war. This was an era in the history of the Congress, and of its general purposes. It had lived and worked for a quarter of a century: five and twenty years ago it was a new and doubtful experiment. It had steadily won its way, and showed no signs of decadence as it grew in age. That was a proof that it had met a want and in part had stifled it.

The right rev. prelate's address was greeted with constant and warm applause. The Congress then proceeded to discuss the question of the Revision of the Bible. Canon DRIVER read a paper pointing out why Revision was needed, the enormous difficulties attending the work, and giving reasons why the result was to be regarded as satisfactory. The Canon said in dealing with the difficulties of translation, I confine myself to those which are most prominent, and the existence of which both accounts for the absence of unanimity among scholars and explains why an ideal translation of the Old Testament is not feasible.

First, there are passages which are so out of harmony with the normal usuage of the language that the suspicion--though its truth cannot always be demonstrated -forces itself upon us that the text has not been handed down to us in its original purity. An element of uncertainty is thus at once introduced, and the judgment of different scholars upon such passages will naturally vary. Secondly, a large part of the Old Testament is poetical; and the poetry of all languages, from the conditions which the temper of the poet or the rules of his art impose upon his choice of language, offers peculiar diffculties to the translator. Thirdly, there are a number rare words in the Old Testament on the meaning of which tradition is divided or is at variance with the evidence afforded by the sister dialects, or, again on which the evidence of the dialects is not conclusive. Fourthly, Hebrew has many characteristic idioms and forms of expression which can often be only imperfectly represented in English.

Hebrew, again, is peculiarly rich in synonyms, among the most important of which are those describing the emotions and different perceptive and reflective faculties. It it desirable in such cases to preserve the distinction if possible; but idiom or but usage continually interposes with its unwelcome inexorable veto. These considerations, while illustrating some of the difficulties with which the Revising Company has had to deal, will show at the same time that a perfect translation--a translation in which all scholars will coincide-is, and, so far as we can see, must remain an unattainable ideal, and will further constitute some explanation of the frequent alternatives given in the margin. Is the revision a success Stated in this form, the question is one which I cannot take upon me to answer. The success of such a work depends in large measure upon its literary qualities which must be estimated by others; a member of the ment company itself cannot with propriety pronounce judgupon them.

But on the substantial question whether or not the new version is a more accurate representation of the original than the version of 1611- whether or not it is fairly on the level of modern scholarship-it may perhaps be permissible for me to and pass an opinion. The subiect is so broad and general. the personal element consequently so inconsiderable, that I need not, I hope, feel myself debarred from expressing at least in general terms, an opinion upon it. Much, indeed. is to be said in favour of a translation such as that of the Psalms by Mr.

Cheyne, in which conventional phrases are abandoned. and the author's meaning is brought home to the reader with an incisiveness and force, yet with perfect adherence to idiom. which the style of the Authorised Version does not possess. But the intention of the revision was not to supplant the Authorised Version by a fresh translation. but to readjust the old version to modern needs.

From this point of view I think it may be said that the Revised Version has accomplished what was desired. If the verdict of literary critics be favourable I do not think the Revised Version (of which the margins must be regarded as forming an integral part) should be viewed with distrust upon grounds of philology and scholarship I think that it deserves to be brought into general use. The Rev. Professor KIRKPATRICK said it was a matter for regret that the Revisers had not introduced into the text many of the readings which they had only placed in the margin; that they had placed in the margin a number of other readings (which had at least as good a claim to admission and that they had not frankly admitted more often than they had done that the Hebrew text was corrupt, and that we had no certain means of restoring it. Among other speakers Archdeacon PALMER spoke on the subject of the work of the Revisers in terms of general praise, pointing out a few minor matters in which he thought there might have been improvement.

The Rev. J. F. BATEMAN expressed thankfulness for the benefit which had been conferred by the Revision, though there were verbal alterations still needed. The PRESIDENT expressed his satisfaction that the criticisms had been so kindly and 80 little severe.

On the whole, the Revisers had been let off very easily. He defended the marginal readings as being necessary to show the public what was the state of the case. The Afternoon Sect Meeting was held in the Penny-street Lecture-hall. and was largely attended, the chairman being the Bishop of Newcastle. The Rev.

J. B. HARBORD, chaplain of the fleet, read a paper on 66 The moral responsibility welfare of the Church as regards the spiritual and of our soldiers and sailors." He pointed out that the arrangements of the Church were all territorial, and did not meet the case of seamen or soldiers. The only churches which it was likely that they would frequent were those which were free and open. (Loud cheers.) Canon BEACH followed with a paper on the subject as it related to the Army.

He observed that as the short-service system, whereby soldiers were returned to civil life at a much earlier period than formerly, was an additional reason why the moral and religious condition should occupy a very large place in the thoughts of Churchmen. Amongst the things which were urgently needed for the Army were, in the first place, more suitable edifices for divine service. (Cheers.) He had seen the following transformations take place--the Presbyterians led the forlorn hope at half-past 8, and lest their Protestant susceptibilities should be wounded by the sight of a Roman Catholic altar, a curtain was drawn in front of it. At 10 the curtain was withdrawn and the Roman Catholics had their service. Then the altar, which had been ingeniously contrivedno doubt by the Royal -to run on wheels, was taken off to the vestry.

He was happy, however, to say that in some places a great improvement had taken place. But more chaplains were wanted. There ought surely to be a chaplain to each regiment. Miss WESTON, the sailors' friend, in the absence of Admiral Duncan Grant, read a paper, in which she detailed the working of sailors' rests and the good that had resulted from them, and submitted that personal influence and women influence was the missing link in the Navy, and that it was partly supplied by the rests she had described.

Lieutenant-Colonel WALKER said it was essential that chaplains should attend actively to their work, DROBATE, SUCCESSION, LEGACY VALUERS. AND AUCTIONEERS, PERKINS AND SONS. THE AUCTION MART. SOUTHAMPTON. LADIES ALL USE PERRYS BOOTS AND STANDARD SHOES.
