The Australian edition to the War Cry contains the following very sensible and temperate reiqarks upon the street marching case at Wollongong:—Whilst thanking God for victory, our officers and soldiers will do well riot to take an undue advantage of the liberty gained. We must be careful not to interfere with the services of churches, or Sunday schools, or other missions, as by doing so we not only raise up opposition against our open-air work, but should be unjust to those who, in their way, are working for the same object as ourselves. Let officers note the regulations re bands and marching where religious services are being held, or sick people object to our bands and singing. We must also remember that God has given us this victory, and not allow ourselves to boast over crestfallen councillors and mayors, or any others who are against us. We have been urged to claim compensation from the Wollongong Council for illegal imprisonment; but all we ask is liberty to proclainj Gofl’e salvation, and we leave retribution to Him who eaid,' Vengeance is Mine. I will repay.' Cultivate the spirit of forgiveness and chanty, and go right on With your Goibgivog work,
