A dated defense of Gladstone's Irish disestablishment policy arguing it ends protestant popery tensions. It contends wealth and state support do not empower faith, urges self-reliance for Protestantism, and forecasts Popery persists without state aid while warning against political manipulation. It asserts disendowment will strengthen true Christian conquest.

The article surveys bishops in Ireland and England voicing strong opposition to disestablishment. Evangelicals rail against the plan, while High Church figures resist but see possible gains. The Broad Church group stays mostly discontent, as the Bishop of Ripon criticizes taxing Nonconformists and Ireland’s move.
