THE NEW METROPOLITAN OF INDIA.
: The translation of Bishop Lofroy'from tho Puujab' to the Metropolitan seo will bo hailed througliout India as tho real right thing, for there is nd Church dignitary in the East occupying a position of equal eminence (.says the "Manchester Guardian"). Dr. Lcfrby. has,bcen Bishop of Lahore since 1899, and before that date he was for twenty years head of the Cambridge mission at Delhi. He is known, among other things, for the frank sympathy of his attitude towards the Indian character and Indian national movements, religious and political alike, and some of the most notable utterances of recent vears on the relations between Christianity and Eastern thought have doino from tho new Metropolitan of India. More than onco he has read a rather severe homily to his fellow-countrymen in the East on their faults of manner and behaviour, but this outspokenness has certainly' iiot diminished tho high' esteem which Anglo-India feels for tho Bishop.
