Intemperance

AT the General Synod of the Church of En-land, Christ-church, the Bishop of Melanesia presented the following memorial on intemperance: , tl _\__ " Most Reverend the Primate, the Right Reverend the Bishops of the Province P New Zealand and" the Clenry aud Laity of the General Synod assembled. "Mv Lord aud Gentlemen,— "Welcoming with peculiar Pleasure the meetin" of the General Synod of the Church of England in this city, snd being deeply impressed with the social and religious in fluence possessed by its members, both indi vidually and officially, we, ou behalf of the Temperance Associations ef Christchurch, respectfully approach and ask the attention of the Sraod to the terrible moral and social evils resulting from the excessive use of alcoholic liquors. _...__« _ " Notwithstanding all the efforts thathave been put forth of late years to curtail the ravages of intemperance, the evils of our social drinking have been as rampant as ever; and though we have to rejoice because ot the steady growth of a public opinion favorable to the principles and practice we represent, we have at the same time to mourn over the desolation of many homes, the blasting ot many characters and the destruction of many thousands of precious lives, desolated, blasted and slaiu by strong drink. v "We would endeavour to impress upon c your minds the magnitude and malignity of a the evil to which we arc specially opposed. s One cannot view society trom any stand. x point or consider it iv respect to any of its c interests, without coming into direct con- t tact with the evil results of our social f drinking. A system which in the eld country induces a direct annual expenditure ( of nearly £150,000,000 sterling, which in s this new bind leads to an annual outlay ot £ the £° 000 000 sterling, and which oilers in ( return for this almost fabulous expenditure j I nothioo which is necessary to man s health i of body, his capacity for labour, his .ound- , nessof mind, his intelligent enjoyment ot - blc8«io". of social life, or his true happiness, . shonld^call for our stern denunciation and . vigorous opposition, as a system inducing , extravagant aud improvident squandering of means, for the lack ot the proper expendi ture of which hundreds of thousands of our fellows are pining in misery, and eating the bread of the pauper. " Lengthened and close observation, scientific inquiry, and a painful experience extending over many years, have demons trated to us that all the waste ot material wealth, the accumulated misery, and the destruction of life caused by strong drink, are due to the perpetuation of our social drinking customs, and the ever-present, all pervading, influence of the liquor traffic. And,sirs, permit us very respectfully to say that it is deeply impressed on our judgments that for the continuance of this state of thim-s the Churcli at large is in a very large measure responsible. It is our solemn con viction, that in this laud no custom could survive, no traffic live, in the face of the reprobation of the Churcb of Christ. Let the Church arise in her purity and might, and fairly grapple with this monster vice, and the evil we deplore and deprecate will cease and determine in the land. "You in this Synod represent a large and influential section of the Church in New Zealand. Your deliberations and utterances will inlluenec tbe lives of many thousands of our people, who look to you for guidance and direction on questions involving national morality and social well-being, and on behalf of thousands of our suffering fellows, wc venture respectfully to request you, that you will use your great influence to effect ually antagonise the great power for evil to which we have endeavoured to direct our attention. . " In uudertaking to bring the subject ol tbis address under your consideration, w-e have accepted a responsibility, the serious nature of which we fully realize. We feel that the proper representation of, and the due dealing with this subject is fraught with most momcutous issues to many soul?. We have endeavoured with becoming respect, but with all faithfulness, to place before you, as fully as the limits of this address would peimit, the great issues at stake, and earne-tly desire that you may be guided to such conclusions with respect to them as will redound to the glory of God and the salvation of men.

Diocesan Boards

• t the General Synod of the Church of England at Christchurch, the Yen. Arch deacon Harper moved the second reading of a bill entitled a Statute tor Establishing Diocesan Hoards.

The text of the statute was as follows :— " Preamble-Whereas it is expedient that Diocesan Councils be established for the purpose cf considering the general fitness for the Ministry of persons who may desire to become candidates for deacons' orders : Be it therefore Iresolved by the Bishops, clergy, and laity of the Church of the Province of New Zealand, commonly called the Church of England, in General Synod assembled, as follows :—That for the purpose of consider ing the general fitness tor the ministry of persons who may. desire to become candid ates for deacons'orders, there shall lie estab lished iv each dio.eso a council to be called the Diocesan Council, such couucil to con sist of two clergymen and two laymen, to be appoiuted by the Bishop annually at the annual session of the Diocesan Synod. Every application to be allowed to become a candidate for deacon's orders shall be made to the Bishop of the diocese, who shall then lay the application before the Diocesan Couucil.lf the Council shall be satisfied that tho applicant is generally fitted for the work of the" ministiy, they shall certify the same to the Bishop iv writing, in such manner as may seem to them most desirable. If the Couucil shall be unable to make such re commendation in favour of the applicant, they shall certify the same in writing to the Bishop. Provided that nothing herein con tained shall be held to oblige the Bishop to ordain any applicant whose general fitness shall have been so certified as aforesaid, or to affect the power of the Bishop to require any special standard of qualification he may deem necessary for candidates for Eolv Orders."

The Rev. Canon Cotterill seconded the motion.

At the requc-t of Canon Cotterill, on be half of his order, the clergy retired <o a separate chamber to confer as to tbe motion before the House; and a similar request being preferred by Mr Maude on behalf of laymen, that order also retired by them selves for conference.

The two orders returned after au absence of one hour, when":

The Dean, iv moving an amendment, remarked upon the important precedent that bad been formed on this, the first oc casion upon which the privilege they had just exercised had been taken advantage of by the General Synod. It'had been gener ally desire i to give the matter before the House very careful cousideratiou, aud he was pleased to be able to state that the result of the deliberations of the clergy bore evidence as to the wisdom of the course adopted. Both laity and clergy were averse to any action which could be interpreted into an invasion of the special privileges of their bishops, but they recognised tbat the episcopal authorities were often placed in a position of difficulty iv regard to the question at issue, and the present proposal had been framed with the view of obviating that difficulty. The amendment he had to propose, in which Archdeacon Harper fully concurred, was as follows—"That a respectful recommen dation be made to the Bench of Bishops, that before receiving any person as a candidate for deacon's orders, they should summon a council of advice to consider with them, as a preliminary question, as to the general fitness of the" person for the office which he seeks."

The Hon. H. 13. Gresson seconded the amendment on behalf of the order he represented, and in doing so remarked that the laity were anxious to be under stood as not in any way desiring to interfere with what had been called the inalienable right of the Bishops, but merely wished that the .Bishops should have the advantage of information which would be of service to them in making ap pointments of the kind, an object whicli would be best secured by the course it was proposed to adopt. He had therefore great pleasure in seconding the amendment. The Bishop of Wellington expressed the opinion that however satisfactory the result of the proceeding adopted in relation to this matter had been, he thought it would be fouud mostsatisfactory in future by not being acted upon too frequently. In illustration of his meaning he pointed out that such a course cf action, (i.e., the orders retiring) virtually precluded the clergy and laity from hearing any arguments the Bishops might have to offeron tliequcstion before the House. Apart from this, however, heneed hardly say that be heartily approved of the resolution arrived at, since it was ia direct conformity

with what he had strenuously advocated at former meetings of the Synod, when he had met with a good deal of opposition The Bishop of Dunedin expressed his con currence in the amendment before the House.

The Bishop of Nelson also intirr .ted his approval of the course recommended, but would, in a general sense, deprecate theorders retitirig to consider questions of importance as he considered it was due to the Bishops and necessary fo efficient legislation that the reasons through which resolutions! were arrived at should be made known and sub ject to criticism. The amendment, as moved by the Dean was then put to the Synod and carried nem. cm

Burial Place of the Royal Family.

What was done with th_ Peince Consort.

;hE newly-published volume of Sir Iheo. ore Martin's " Life" contains the last etailed account that has appeared of the 'rince Consort's last illness. I remember tearing at the time that after the Prince's leath, the Queen expressly desired that he might hear nothing as to the detail, of he funeral, preferring to leave everything ,o Lord Sydney; but that Her M"ajesty tomroanded that the coffin should on no iccouut be placed in the Royal vault, a_ , die did not choose that it should even remporarily share the testing place of i j eorge IV, for whose character she enter- . tains a profound contempt. At a feoyal ' funeral the coffin is lowered into the vault beneath the choir of St George's Chapel, by machinery, but it does not stop there, as is popularly supposed,, as the Royal vault is beneath the Wolsey (now called the Memorial) Obapel, to which it is wheeled along a passage which passes under the communion-table and cloister entrance. Prince Albert's coffin, however, was only wheeled to the gate of the Pvoyal vault, and remained there tor about a year, until it was transferred to the mausoleum, and several months after it was placed in - the sarcophagus, which is iormed in an , enormous piece of rock, out of which a space was hewn sufficiently large to hold two coffin?. Precedence in tiie Tome. The Royal vault, or " tomb-house," was constructed by George 111., and he desired that he himself should be placed on a stone ! table in the centre, with Queen Charlotte by hi 3 side, and that their children and descendants should lie on the shelves around; and Princess Charlotte, the Dukes of York and Kent, aud some other members of the family were' accordingly placed on the shelve?, the King T and Queen being; in the centre; but some' time before the death of George IV. he ac- i quainted himself with all the minutim of the family sepulchre, and declared to the Duke of 'Wellington that " he'd be d—d if I he'd be on a shelf amongst the juniors while ' his predecessor lay in the middle," and left very special directions that he too s_onl_' respose in the centre; and another stone table was erected, whereon, still later, Wfl. < li. ni IV. was placed; and a few yean-after the Queen had the Duke of Kent's coffin removed from the despised shelves to; another table. A Royal funeral at Windsor costs over £200 in fees alone, which go to the rapicious Dean and Chapter, a demand which, seeing that not an inch of "ground" is taken, seems rather extortionate ; indeed, Presbyterian Lord Chamberlain many years ago fought the question, but only succeeded in deferring the payment for some three: years. At the funeral of the King of Han over, the Queen herself kindly paid the whole of the expenses of every sort, in spite of the protestations of the Duke of Cumber-, land, who desired to defray them himself. ; The Queen Descends into the Vault., After the funeral of the King ot Hanover the Queen descended into the vault, and. spent some time there. It is very spacious, and can be well lighted when necessary. It was subsequently reported at Windsor' that Her Majesty had given orders that one or two of the velvet coffins which were hill ing to pieces should be placed in oak covers, and that in future oak cases should be used instead of velvet at Royal funerals. In former times all members of the Royal Family were embalmed, and the heart, &c., placed in an urn alongside of the coffin—a ceremony involving an expenditure of some £300. Prince Albert was buried in the full

uniform of a Field Marshal. It is said at Windsor that the new Mausoleum is built

on so damp a spot that the splendid decora tions would speedily be irretrievably damaged if fires were not constantly kept lighted. On the whole, this edifice, con steering its vast cost, is inferior to the famous Memorial Chapel to the Duchess of Nassau on the Neroberg, behind Wiesba den.

The Queex's Dislike of George IV.* The Queen's dislike to George IV.. has been shown very decidedly in many practi cal ways, both at Windsor and at Buckingj ham Palace, which, after all, is somewhat ungrateful on her Majesty's part, as, what ever his failings as a monarch, his succes sors are indebted to him for having made Windsor Castle one of the most splendid and luxurious residences in the world, and, although so generally abused, Buckingham Palace, in these respects, is not far behind. On the walls of one of the drawing-rooms at the Palace there hung for many yean, five large and beautitul family pictures, in-, eluding the famous portrait ot the Duchess of Cumberland by Gainsborough; in tbe ceutre was George IV., by Sir Thomas Lawrence, one of his finest examples. But by way of manifesting her dislike of net uncle, the Queen ordered his picture to be removed and consigned to a staircase, filling the vacant space with a portrait of herself painted shortly after she ascended the throne, and which, being one of the most hideous daubs ever seen, was not only altogether out of place, but it positively spoilt the effect of its neighbours. H°wev«";' the barbarism was perpetrated, and doubt less the blot still remains to this day. ---" Truth." , ..

LESS THAN 100 AFTER ALL.

A nkgko, known to the residents of" Kalntnck as Old Tom-Tom, has for the last few weera beon claiming that ho was over 100 years old. and he has found many believers. He w_B warming bis hands over a chestnut-roaster on Griswold street when an acquaintance came

The man begin to ask questions, ana'in five minutes had almost convinced the old carter that ha wasn't born until the year ISOD, ana consequently was only seventy-nine years ow. "Dat takes me back a heap, bnt I eanemnit believe you am right." mused Tom torn. ■ "I must bo rteht—can': bo otherwise, Ueres tho figures right hero to brove it." "WaaM'zebeen c.llin'm yself a clean hun dred," said the aid man, as he scratched bis head," "but if I hain't more'n 79 Ize fwweto git dis cook outer my back, patch up dis ooer coat. an'prepar'to take a fo'th wife fore 00 holidays.

MOSLEE, PROFKgSOB AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GRKIPiWALD. Epitome of an article of the " Berliner kil nischen Wochenschrif t" No. 21,1879, a medica) periodical, published at Berlin, with references to inhalations of the Extract Eucalyftib Folis (dander and Sons' Extract Ii ucalyptua) in case 3of diptheria, by Dr. V. Mosler, professor at the University of Greifswald, Germany, viz. : " Having experienced the advantages derived from inhalations of t^.e Kxtp.act Eccalyptie Folii in csaea of echinococcen of the lungs with bronchial affections, I made un my mind to tr the same remedy in cases of Diphtheria. D Salenz, a pupil of mine, has since, in his despera tion, repotted, the particulars of tho cases treated, and I may be allowed bristly to refer to one of the cases enumerated therein. Ida X., of Pa-ewalk, twenty years cf oge, had on tho 19th February, 1879, a fit of chilling fever with violent pains in her throat. She called upon a medical practitioner, who, recognizing at once the case to bo ono of diphtheritic, made her enter my klinik, where J had to separato her from the other patients. The patient, well developed for her age. woscomplaining of pains in her throat, which grew worse when she en deavoured to swallow, speak, cr move tho neck. The submaxillar and submental glands were much swollen, and the fever was of a remitting nature. The condition of tho patient was on the 22nd of February: Warmth=3o.l C, pulse=9fl rfspira_on=2o. Prescription : Extract euc. c. foliia to be Inhaled for twenty minntes every hour. The following day the latie-t threw out small particles of ex^udat. The local appear ances in the pharynx grew worse, and the exsudats were more extended over the mucoua membrane. That increase of symptoms caused me to augment tho dose to ono tea spoonftit of extract euc. used for inhala tion ; also tho inhalations were continued during the night. On tho 27ih patient got better and tha fever had subsided. On examining tho pharynx it was easily to be noticed that the pro cess 01 diphthentis gave way, and on the 11th of March the patient was restored to health and discharged. Tlje report in question says that the Euculypti Extract in all case 3of diphtierities proved successful; it also sets forth cases of laryngitis and bronehit's, chronica, pneumonia, croupos- dsxtra, ao to pharyngitis, combined with laryn'.iti . treated successfully with the Eucalypti Extract. (Those diseases constitute nearly all the afl.ee tions of tho throat and respiratory organs, mostly caused by neglected colds) The above reported cure of diphtheria, a di sease which is always attended by fever, proves the efficacy of our Extract Eucalyptus in all cases of fever, and as it at the same time disin fects all wound;-, and checks inflammation, it will be a positive cure of nearly all diseases, chiefly, Fevers, Rheumatism, Colds, Wounds of all kinds, Spraius, Bruises, Etc., Solo Agent for Auckland a. _ District: A I C X 1 N, The PuiRMACY, Queen-street.
