A UNIVERSITY DEGREE.
Canon Barlow, the active young clergyman whose nomination to the Bishopric of North Queensland was objected to by the Australian bishops, because Mr Barlow possesses no University degree, is, after all, to be consecrated Bishop. Bishop Stanton, the former Bishop of North Queensland, urged the matter so strongly that the objectors have given way. North Queensland is a large diocese, and the climate is fearfully hot in some parts. Many of the people, moreover, in the rural parts and wilds, are of the least cultured description, and probably would neither know nor care what a University degree means.
