The Armenian Christians.—Toleration In Turkey.—

Of late, several Armenian Christians have been converted by the American Protestant missionaries in Turkey, and are known by page 46 the name of gospel readers. They were sorely persecuted by the Armenian Bishops; and the Sultan refused them all redress, because Protestants were not among the number of tolerated religions in Turkey. Our Minister, Lord Cowley, has, however, taken up their cause, and procured for them and other Protestants a legal right of recognition. This is a matter for which all true Protestants will feel grateful to Lord Cowley and Lord Palmerston.”
