The Bennett of Frome Prokiention.--The.
Church Association is at length following ttp the
St. Albans case, in which they compelled Mr.
Mackoncohie to abridge his. extrava
gancies, by a prosecution on the ground of teaching
erroneous doctrine. Rev. W. J. E. Bennett, Vicar of,
Frome, is the defendant, and Mr. T. B. Sheppard;
one of his parishioners is the promoter of the suit.
The charges against Mr. Bennett refer to his Re
manizing doctrines as to the sacrament of the
Lord's Supper, and his assertion of the material
presence. EP ifll aulties, being interposed in the way
of an application to the Bishop of Bath and Wells
in whose diocese Mr: Bennett ministers, an applica
tion was made to the Bishop of London, on the
ground of Mr. Bennett having published two works
in his lordship's diocese containing Romish doe
trine. The. Bishop of London declined to give:the
requisite apthority for the prosecution," unless un
der legal compulsion." The Court of ueen's Bench
was then applied to, and a mandamus to compel
the Bislicip' of London to proceed was sought 'for.
The judges of that Court granted rule nisi, so that
the Bishop must either consent to the rule being
made absolute, and proceed with the prosecution, •
or show the cause why he declines ,to do so. The
Bishop has at last granted the commission, The
Commissioners are to be Sir Travers Twiss, the
Chancellor of' the' Diocese, the Archdeaeon of Mid
dlesex (Sinclair), the Rev. Canon Melville, Chaplain
to Her Majesty, the'Rev; F. G. Blomfield, Chaplain
to the Bishop of London, and the Rev. Prebendary
Kempe, Recter of St. James.
Bishop COMO; Caie.—lt is announced "on
the best authority, 4 that the Government will not
oppose the consecration of a new bishop for the
territory over which Dr. Colenao has the legal Epis
copal control. The Bishop of Capetown has assured
the Duke of Buckingham that there is no intention
to interfere with any legal rights which Colenso as
the Bishop of Natal may have; that what is pro
posed is to consecrate a bishop who shall perform
Episcopal functions for such of the clergy and laity
as dwell in Zulu Land and the adjacent parts (as in
Natal, etc.,) who may be willing voluntarily to sub
mit themselves to him; and that there is no desire
to confer upon the new prelate any title which
might be regarded as an infringement of any rights
which the' Queen's letters patent are supposed to .
confer. With these explanations His Grace "does,
not think it necessary that Her Majesty's Govern
ment should interpose any obstacle Whatever to
such proceeding," and the John Bull states that de
spatches have been addressed to the Governors at
the Cape, Natal, and St.. Helena, directing that no
servants of the Imperial Government (clergy or
laity) shall take any part on either side of the ques
tion. ,
Convoeatiob met July Ist, and a Committee
of the HousS Of Bishops sent in a report on the
Colenso case,'irr which it is admitted that Bishop
Gray, of Capetown, has no legal' or compulsory au
thority as "Metropolitan of South Africa " over
Bishop.Colenso, if, as the law courts decide, his let
ters patent were invitlid t ; and also that there were
irregularities in the woocedings against the great
heresiarch. But they nevertheless pronounce that
"substantial justice was done , the accused," and
that the sentence, though- " lkonounced by a
tribunal not acknowledged by the Queen's
m courts,
whether civil or ecclesiastical," ay yet be accepted
as valid by " the Church as a spiritual body." The
Bishop of London submitted a minority report—
taking High Church and Siate.grounds against the
validity of the suspension. but that of the majority
was adopted.

possible care to have branches of the Union elect
delegates of their own views to the annual meeting.
They even managed to turn out Mr. Le Geyt front
the Oxford delegation and put a nobody in his place.
The Church News, representing the minority, says of
the meeting :
"The Council carried everything before them. A
posse of distinguished people' were hooked for the
occasion, who made speeches in the interests of the
Council, and there was at all times a sufficient body
of young men, both laics and clerics, to cheer every
thing and anything that was uttered by the execu
tive and their allies. Dr. Pusey [who, it will be re
membered, sustained Gladstone when the Universi
ty of Oxford rejected him as too liberal,] delivered
an,able but extremely one-sided address de rebus om
nibus, in which there was exceedingly little to' bring
consolation to Churchmen. We could not have con
ceived that the rotten principles of a false and spur
ions liberalism could have so eaten into the honest
hearts of English Churchmen astohaveallowed the
members of a vast organization like this to be sat
isfied with the inadequate suggestions offered. An
attempt was made by some of the more conservative
members of the E. C. U. to obtain a fair represent
ation of their principles set forth, but the meeting
heard the Church and State men with much impa
tience. A, persistent attempt ,was made to put .down
Dr. Lee and Mr. G. J. Murray by continuous
noises. '
The "Union of Christendom", Movement
The annual meeting of the members and friends of
the Eastern Church Association was'held June 24.
The report congratulated the meeting on the Pan.
Anglican Synod. at Lambeth, which had (it stated)
done more than anything that had happened of, late
years tobring together the divided branches of the
Catholic Church, and which would ever be a stand
ing landmark of the vitality of the Chureirof En
gland. Another great step in advance was thelet
ter of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and prelates to
the Patriarch of the Eastern Church, enclosing their
Lambeth Encyclical. Archpriest, l'opoft; of. the
Russian Church, had. taken charge of a congratu
latory address from the Council to. ,Innocent, the
new Metropolitan of Russia. At Constantinople
great efforts were being made to bring 'about 'a 're
conciliation between the Armenian and Orthodox
[Greek] Churches, and it was supposed that the
Memorial church would be consecrated about C hrist
mas. A sum of twenty pounds was, granted to the
Patriarch ofJerusalem in aidof his schools, and the
mover severely commented on the so-called ' pro
selytizing efforts' of the Anglican-Bishop of
salem."
The flootekEstabliehment is being warned- , by
the assault on that of Ireland, to " set its house in
order." Already the question is discussed whether
the Church of Scotland is not the representative of
a minority of the people. A late writer goes over
all the available statistics, and concludes that the
worshippers outside of the Establishment are double
those within it it. Extending the analysis' and coin
paring the Establishment of Scotland, not, with the
whole body of Protestant worshippers, but with
single, denominations, it appears that , in:the fifty
three cities, towns and burghs of Scotland, the Free
Church worshipper's predominate in twenty-seven,
the United Presbyterian Church in fifteen, and the
Establishment only in eleven. In regard to the
counties again (thirty-three in number), it is found
that the Establishment'has the majority in fourteen
(in four of them the predominance is, very small.)
The Free Church predominates in twelve, and the
United Presbyterian Church in seven . .

A WORD TO THE CHURCH 'TINDER ,
THE
CARE OP THE PITTSBURG',REPORMED
PRESBYTERY.
BY REV. THOS. JOHNSTON'.
At a special meeting of the Pittsburg R. P. Pres
bytery, on the 15th ult., in Rev. Jno. McMillan's
church, the following paper was adopted :
WHEREAS the General Synod of the Reformed
Presbyterian Church at its last meeting held in Pitts
burg, did suspend Geo. H. Stuart, Esq., from office
and membership in the Church; contrary to all the
forrns, order and precedents which have obtained in
the administration of discipline in our Church
WHEREAS by a subsequent resolution it was order
ed that all sessions and Presbyteries be directed to
carry out the law of the Church in accordance with
the issue of the case of Mr. Stuart; and
WHEREAS this Presbytery regards this action of
Synod as contrary to the received standards, of our
Church and numerous acts upon the records of the
General Synod, and regarding the whole proceedings
arbitrary and injurious to the cause of Christ, and
the permanent obedience which we owe Him ;
Resolved, That this Presbytery maintaining our
long established and well understood position, and
endeavoring to carry out, our principles, order, disci
pline, and government as heretofore, do hereby sus
pend our relations:to Synod until the aforesaid action
be rescinded, or until we obtain, further light, and in
the meantime we remain in the Reformed Presbyte
rian Church—maintaining and endeavoring to devel
op 'her gloriousprinciples, &c"
This paper Presbytery adopted, by a •ministerial
vote of four to two, one member of Presbytery not
voting.
It was supposed, at least by the writer, that this
action of Presbytery would be quietly submitted to
by the dissenting members. But it seems that Dr.
Douglas and his respectable coadjutor•are persuading
themselves.that the Presbytery has suicidally' ended
its existence, and that they only are left to announce
the fact.
It is amazing what an amount of congenial work
the principal of these.two witnesses has had thrust
upon him since the opening of our last Synod. One
would think his labors as the effective Chairman of
the Committee of Discipline, the recognized lever of
the work against Mr. Stuart, and the most promi
nent member of Synod's commission at Philadelphia.
were Herculean enough to have spared him the call to
be the Atlas to bear up the great weight of the Key
stone Presbytery. We do think that if our elders and
people were truthfully informed of the position of the
Presbytery with which they have always been identi
fied they would not consent to be led into any divisive
measures.
Consider, Dear Brethren, whether it is true that
the resolution of Presbytery. quoted above amounts
to "secession from the Church, and total rejection of
the authority of Synod" ?
Dr. Douglas claims it does. He ignores all the offi
cers of PreAvtery : calling a special meeting with
out any application to the Moderator, or Clerk of
Presbytery to issue the call, wilich is the rule of ' , our
Book'of Discipline.
We claim that the single objectionable clause`in
the above resolution must be interpreted consistent,-
1.7 with the limitations of the preamble. and express
declarations in the resolution.
Does not, the preamble confine the suspending .act
to the-simple' action 'of Synod in regard to Mr.
Stuart? And 'does not the resolution" 'explicitly, and'
in every form of expression declare the'.Presbytery's
continuance in our Churel, ,and; lOyalty to • all her
laws and principles?
All that Presbytery meant then, was a " solenan
protest against Synod's unworthy action "—a refnsal
to co-operate with Synod in harrying out her meas
ures of discipline, according to the/Stuart precederit,
and a, purpose not to send delegates to Synod, Until
the measures complained of were repealed, or. new
light was reached. The writer does not advocate •the
wisdom of the results Presbytery reached,: pr the logi
cal coherency .of the paper adopted. But he does claim
that a fair interpretation of the action of F'resbytery
precludes Dr. Douglas'
,charge :that it was an act. of
secession, and take away all ground 'for calling or
constituting another Presbytery. ••, •
Again, it is to be;presumed that if any of our' el
ders, or congregations identify themselves , with the
Presbytery proposed to be raised by Dr.,Douglas and,
others, they will be such as are conscientious about
the divine appointment of the Book of Psalms, to be
exclusively used in the 'praise of God. Btifit is wor
thy of your consideration; dear brethren, that Dr :
Douglas does not well represent your views. I be
lieve he will,agree with me in the statement that he.
has never committed himself on that4nestion: i He
bad 'affirmed more than once over his own signature,.
his readiness to join either the Old', or New . School
Presbyterian Church. He introduced the motion
into our Presbytery at Austintown to, chdlage our
law against the use of hymns, and advoeitedlit - with
all the eloquence of sincerity, and assured Us atPree
bytery on the 15th of June, that he had wanted that
motion to prevail. And although he prosecuted Mr.
Stuart to the end on the ground that hehad violated
the law 'Of the Church, he made no concealment of
the fact, that it was solely the law of the Church,
and no reference to the law of Christ, that' controlled'
him in the whole of the' process. ; ' .
I admire the frankness with; which, Dr. Douglas.
avows his freedom from : conscientious convictions on
this subject of Psalmody. I far prefer that to the
meanness which leads some to prate of. Conscience
where none exists. But it is proper: o Mention. these,
facts as Showink the character of the Dactor'S claims
to' be the championof, the exclusive theory -of,
Psalmody. ;
I will mention one more consideratiowdear breth
