This article focuses on politics and society. The "Civil Service Record" has rendered the public a great service, in securing and publishing a large collection of statistics as to the changes which have been made in the various executive departments since the new administration came in. The lack of such data hitherto has prevented anything like a comprehensive exposition of the facts, and it has consequently been impossible to show with any approach to exactness the real state of the case. The divisive forces of Protestantism are not spent. There is a schism, practically, in the Congregational Church. Here it is seen, thus, a recrudescence of the schismatic tendencies of Protestantism.
