    loudly proclaimed , for pursuing au useful course in his own particular department ; but with understandings , or somethings , which resolve themselves into a gratuitous confidence in men who have already sufficiently shewn themselves either incapable of understanding his measures , or determined not to tolerate them . He has thrown away a moral power for which compensation will be vainly sought in official influence .

    - reb . 20 . The meeting , at Freemasons Hall , on the 12 th instant , to form an " Auxiliary Reformation Society for the District of St . Giles * , " that is , a society for converting the poor Catholics of that neighbourhood into Protestants , became rather unexpectedly a meeting for diseussing the theological differences of the Churches of Rome and England . It has been twice adjourned . A Catholic priest ( Rev . Mr . Spooner ) very cleverly retorted

    the word " tradition" upon the Episcopalians . He called for their Scripture precept to baptize infants . This was much better than his designating " any attempt to make proselytes of the Roman Catholics of St . Giles ' , " a " direct invasion of the right of private judgment . " To argue with a man is surely the most direct mode of recognizing that right * He himself allowed that right , ( notwithstanding Us being a Protestant principle , )

    by his reasonings against the clergymen to whom he replied . Let these two great churches but come into collision , by public discussions , and inconsistencies will be brought home to them both , fast enough and plenteously enough , to satisfy the standers by of their pretensions . Thanks to the indiscreet zeal of the Evangelicals , and the political demand for Catholic conversion as a substitute for Catholic Emancipation , they can scarcely

    avoid discussion ; and if once they get fairly iuto discussion , dogmatism and imposition will be sure of exposure . . Feb . 22 . More Parliamentary explanations . Mr . Herries reiterates that his resignation was the pretext merely of the late change , and that it was something else which dissolved the Ministry . To be sure it was . There was intrigue and treachery enough , no doubt . But this " farce of Mr . Herries , " is growing as tedious as that which was hissed at

    Drury Lane . Petitions for the repeal of the Test and Oorporation Acts are pouring in from all parts of the country . Ministers have only to refuse that repeal for two or three years to made the Dissenters a urn ted , determined , and formidable political body . If they do so , we wish them joy of their policy .

    The Conductors fear that " A Physician" does not understand this case ; at least they doubt the efficacy of his remedy . They agiee in almost all points with their respected friend F . V ., but cannot persuade themselves that it is expedient in a public journal to enter so pointedly as he does upon many points . The insertion of J . C . M . ' s paper does not come within the Conductors * plan , as he may gather from former observations . The subject is in proper hands for discussion .

    F . I . W / s exhortation to the Dissenters to make common cause with the Catho lies , would better be addressed to the Repeal Committee . Mr . G . Kenrick ' s Journal will be continued in the next number .

    It is not thought expedient to insert G / s observations on an article in the "Christian Moderator . " The Conductors expect the subject to be noticed in another shape The extract from Mr . Higgins ' s book will , perhaps , more properly form part of

    a criticism on the work , which is under consideration . A Subscriber asks , whether any of our Correspondents can furnish him with a list of sermons for reading in a family , whose sentiments are completely Humanitarian . The Conductors gratefully acknowledge the receipt of several valuable communications which are now before them . Dr . Rees states in a note , that he has received J . D . ' s donation of one pound , for the Case of Distress advertised in the last Repository , which he has forwarded to tjie party .
