UKTTARIAN FUND . —The Annual Meeting of this Society was holden * n Wednesday the 21 st inst . in London . The religious services were carried on at Parliament Court , Artillery Lane .
The Rov . R . Wri ght ty ? g zn and > the Rev . W . Vidler concluded , with prayer . The Rev . R . Aspland preached from Rom ; x . 6— -15 , endeavouring to shew from this passage that the principles on which the Unitarian Fund is founded are
precisely those on which our l > ord and his apostles rested their justification , as the propagators of a rTew schema of doctrines . With the conclusion of the discourse were interwoven 6 omc extracts from the writings of the most celebrated and respectable Unitarians , deceased and living , tending to shew that the promotion of Uniiarianism among the people , rs the natural result of ali their labours ,
and anticipating and ( virtually ) repelling objections to the Unitarian Fund . The day was unfavourable , but the congregation was respectable , and the collection at the doors very liberal . Immediately after the service , the Society farmed itself for business . J . T . Rutt , Esq , was voted into the chair . This gentleman read ( with a view to
relieve the Secretary ) the Report of the committee . The congregation had been invited to stay whilst it was read . The reading of it occupied about an hour . It was highly encouraging , and was approved and received by the society , and the substance of it ordered to be printed , with such alterations and correct . ons as the committee should judge proper .
A motion was made and unanimously carried that Mr . Aspland should be requested to print the sermon delivered before the society ; but we understood him , to decline this < honour , on two grounds ; 1 } the annual publication of the Report
^ taade trie printing of sermons unnecessary and , 2 , it was necessary to prevent the publishing of the sermons from growmg into a precedent , and no opportunity ^ ould be so favourable for 4 omg this , as ^ present .
