Dr. Bradley, the Master of University College, Oxford, and for-
merly head master of Marlborough School, is to be the new Dean of Westminster. He is certainly a fit successor in Dean Stanley'a own Arnoldian school of thought, and is the equal of the late Dean in earnestness and vigour, if few or none could quite equal him in sweetness of nature. We only trust the new Dean will not undervalue the great spiritual opportunities which the
of so magnificent a cathedral possesses for bringing - religion home to the people. The Dean of St. Paul's is, in that, respect, an even better model than the predecessor whom all - London so deeply mourns. We trust Dr. Bradley,—wise Broad Churchman as he is,—will imitate Dean Church's administration of a kind of trust which, naturally enough, High Churchmen seem best to value and to understand. The power and grandeur of a great cathedral service is what no. Broad Churchman needs in any way to underrate.
