We are happy to say that we have a letter

from an English clergyman denying entirely that the majority of his brethren are, so far as he knows, likely to change their votes where they have hitherto been given on the Liberal side, in consequence of the Irish Church question. He believes that most Liberal clergymen, even though differing from Mr. Gladstone on the Irish Church question, will yet prefer the Liberal to the Conservative cause. We hope that it may prove so. We never made a grave. mistake of which we should be so glad to be convicted.
