decidedly against the ex istence of ny dominant church but they also feel 0 they have equal claims with the episcopal if any preference is to he given because alhough in england they are dissent ers from be chufch of england in scotland members cf ihat church are dissenters from the church of scotland they ccnteatl further and we think truly that here there can be no dissenters because there is reestablished church notwithstand ing all ihi however the members of the pres byterian community have nearly to a man supported he government and they have by so doing sown the distinction between mere impulse aul principle they have followed the impulse of rlieir feelings at the moment their disapprobation might have led them to resist a supposed wroosi by withholding their sup port from the government but not so ihey reasoned more rightly they argue it is our duty as it has been our practice to support the legitimate government of the country and we will do so still and when we see that go vernment established in a constitutional man ner take such measures as may appear to us to be adapted to produce the effect we are de termined to accomplish we hail with delight this example of wis

relious instruction by these re serves and th mi it was contemplated the chan nel would be ti least chiefly ihrough the in- j strumentality 0 the established english church we tjiy admit that great
