    { From the Patriot . ) The affairs of the Trinitarian Bibh Society are in strange confusion . A most stormy meeting took place on Thursday , April 12 , when certain members called the committee to

    account for excluding the heretics of Regent-Square ~; -a ^ step----which , ^_ th . ey ^ contended , was an unjustifiable extension of the original test . No reporters were admitted ; this is in itself an ominous circumstance * . It is a plain proof that any society , but especially a religious one , must be in

    a lamentable condition indeed , when it cannot face the open day—when it is conscious that its proceedings are likely to be too disgraceful for publication . The description we have had , however , of the meeting , from those who were present , leaves us no room to regret that the veil of secrecy was

    dropped over this painful scene $ a scene which , if disclosed , would only fiirthe sincere Christian with sorrow , and store with fresh arrows the quiver of the infidel . Suffice it . to say , that the Irving heresy had a majority in

    its favour : the consequence is , the officers of the society have already resigned and formed themselves into a provisional committee . And this , then , is the Trinitarian Bible Society , after a brief existence of some seven

    or eight months ! This is the meagre performance which has followed such magnificent promises ! We trust its projectors have found out by this time how vast is the difference between opposing an old society and erecting

    a new one ; between finding faults and amending them ; and that a theory may look ever so well on paper , which it may be extremely difficult to reduce to practice . They were forewarned , that if they in closed their society within the pale of church

    * A good . hint for the ministers of the three denominations . The privileges of that "body may be infringed by allusion to their discussions and divisions after the interval of years , — E , U . C .

    Unitarian Christian Worship , Bur * ton Rooms , Burton Street , Burton Crescent This excellent hall , originally built by

    the Particular Baptists , has been reengaged for Christian worship and useful instruction , under the superintendence of the Rev . Benjamin Mardon , M . A . of the University of Glasgow , minister of Worship Street chapel , Finshury Square .

    The success which has attended the effort to -collect an evening congregation at Woburn Buildings , a very short distance from the above spot , has appeared to that gentleman , and to a number of his fellow parishioners , to justify the present experiment . The plan contemplated will include

    also the delivery , at certain intervals in the course of the week , of lectures on literary and scientific subjects , by gentlemen of education and respectability ; the hall being no less adapted for this purpose than for preaching . Party politics will be excluded ; and care will be taken that the knowledge communicated shall be of that useful

    kind , which is adapted to promote the principles of virtue , " and the interests of natural and-revealed religion . A course of lectures on the Evidences of Christianity will take the lead ; to be delivered on Sunday evenings , a f ter divine worship , commencing at seven o ' clock . The first lecture , on Easter-Sunday ^ * On the Resurrection of Jesus . Christ . '
