DR. CROKE ON THE SCHOOL SYSTEM AND GOVERNMENT OF GREAT BRITAIN.
Dr. Croke, the new Archbishop of Cashel, preached in the Cathedral, Dublin, this morning (August 5) on O'Connell, the liberator. Forty' bishops and 500 priests participated in the ceremonies, which were very imposing and impressive. The Cathedral was densely crowded, and the music was magnificent. In the course of his lecture he said the Irish people were being educated under the State system which, if not all they could desire, was in many respects successful. The foreign church, he added, has been humbled, the rights of the occupiers of the soil have to some extent been recognised, and we are fast working ourselves into a position of equality and independence which every subject should occupy under the protection of what I am not afraid to designate as the best balanced Constitution in the world.
