Religious Liberty Among the Rulers

Queen Victoria was not at all sectarian. She made it quite embarrassing for the Church of England by attending the Presbyterian Church when in Scotland. She was also suspected of leaning toward the Church of Rome, yet she gave expression to sentiments favoring the fullest religious liberty among her subjects. Now it is said that King Edward is criticized by English Churchmen for attending the Scottish Kirk, after the manner of his mother. And the emperor of Germany is being severely censured by State Churchmen, for appointing a Catholic to the chair of history in the Strasbourg University.
