The refusal of the Bishop of London to let a clergyman preach in Dr. Parker's temple has been sustained by many Non conformists; and, while the questions raised have been under discussion, the re ligious world has been agreeably surprised by a movement on the part of the Rev. Hugh Price Hughes to reunite the Metho dist bodies. Tho proposal is warmly ap proved by many eminent Weeleyans, and it seoms likely to be received by great favour on what may bo called economical grounds.

The villagers are to be disarmed - and the police increased and gradually sub st.tuted for soldiers. Epads, telegraphs and railways are also to be constructed The Socialist meeting in Trafalgar Square attracted a large crowd, although thoso present were principally composed of eight seers. The Socialists addressed the meeting from four platforms. Resolutions were passed demanding Government labour for the unemployeo\ eight hours aa a working M day for theGovernmentemployees extension " |of outdoor relief, and free dinner for the I board school children. A Socialist deputa- - [ honi left a,copy of the reaolutioija at tha residence of Lord. Salisbury, wbo-rtplied in a letter stating.his inability to adopt such proposals, which ho considered' wou-d greatly augment the present distress.- -
