THE Prefbyte• y of Penpont, being met her- alit day and cotiftituted,direded their attention to the Bill brought Into Parliament for transferring the p wen of the Court of Teinds from the Court of Scifian to the Court of Etchequer. The Prat bytery have not been able to procure a copy of that Bill ; but they have received information of fame pr titulars in it, from authority on which they can rely. Upon there particulars, they make the following obfervations --1 he principal objet of the Bill from which it takes its name excites the fincere regret of the Prefbytery. The Judges of the Court of Seflion are all Native, of the Country, and their places of refidence during the vacation, are feartered over it. They therefore have the belt opportunities of being well ae quainted with ail its circumftances. They are all Mcm'scrs of the National Church, and they are, at the fame time : confiderable 1 Landholders. They therefore may he premised to have a due 1 tfieleration of what is nece fare to fupport the dignity of the Fe. 4fiall.ica Eftabliihment, and at the fame time to have a jug re- I Ord to ;he rights of the Landed Intereft. Th ey a r c men of large and liberal minds, and in their fituations they art perfeCtly hide pendent. They arc therefore railed far ahoy.: ail fufpicion of Bal i fter views or unfair partiahties. Macs, their number affixtilates them to a Jury feledted out of the belt-informed, the molt refpec rabic, and molt independent members of the commurity, and con fequently, ought to render their decifions molt fatisfaCtory to all parties. For all there reafons,the Prethytery cannot, without deep regret, °Verve that the powers of the Court of feinds are likely to be taken out of the hoods of Judges fo well qualified to exercife them, and who have actually exercifed them, tor fuch a length of time, with the lindelt. honour and fidelity. The Pr. fbytery la ment this the more. that the very propofal* transfer thefe powers from the Court of Seffion to aunther Court, creates a fufpicion that the authors of the Bill for that purpofe are not fatisfied with the manner in which the bufinefs of the reinds has hitherto been con ducted, and that they expo.% that a change of Courts will produce Ia change of meafures leis favourable to theintereits of the Churls. It does not tend to remove this fufpicion, that the Bill has been preceded by an attempt to fulpend rim powers of the Court of '1 eludes, and thus for a time deprive the Church of the only Judi catory before which it can bring forward its claims. The proposed divifion of the Court of Sellion into three Cham bers, fo far tram rendering the change with refit( dt to the Court of Teinds neceffary, takes away the only good realon which can be affigned for it, viz. the want of time to attend to that Winds. if the new arrangement in the Court of Seffi m produce the effea, which it is intended to produce. they wiltbe able to go through three times moee bufincts titan at prefent. Of courfe they will have fufficient time to at-end to any cite:lions with refped toTdnds. And there would be no harelihip, perhaps it would even he plea rant, that the three Chambers fh•.uld occalionally meet together, and ad in one body as a Court of Teinds, efpecially as it Is not very probable that at there meetings they would be troubled with any verylong and laborious ellfeuffions. I here feems, therefore, to be no oecetlity for the propored tra , .srerenee. But if it (hall be determined that the powers of the Come ui Tcinda (hall be taken out of the hands of the Court of Scffion, the Prcfbytery could not with them to he b. tt_r lodged, than in the Court of Exche quer. for that auguft Court the Prefbytery have the higheft re fped, and with them they confider the interefts of the: Church as perfeffily fecure. The Prcibytery have reafon to believe, that there is 2 ebee in the Bill, which appears to them to he peculiarly hard. They on derftand that a prohibition is to be laid upon the new Court of • leinds, from littening to any applicatinn for an augmentation of (Upends, within the period of twenty years from the tare of the former augmentation, lithe circumftance% of thc Cotiotry fhould change as much in the courfe of the next ten years, as they have done in the courfe of the lett, what is now a decent and proper (Upend, would then afford but a poor and fcanry fubli flume ; and the Minilters of the hilahlithed Church would be unable to Cup port that rai; in fociety which they have hitherto been accultoma ed to fuftain, anti which indeed is neceffary to preferve their autho rity and ufefulnefs in their refpeclive raehhes. Betides, it does not appear like treating them or their office with much refpecl, that by lush a orohibition they ffieuld he masked out from all others ffilirg pub c &Meet, and precluded from every hope of obtaining an addle. of to that- rotaries within the period of twenty ytars, however neceffary this might be rendered, by any changes that may take place in the circumftances of the Country. Neither doe: it imply much confidence in the Court with whom the Au& n to is ti be entrufted, that they Ihould be laid under any Each re itridion To them furely it ought to be left to dote mine when an augmtntat;on may be necellary, as well as whit the amount ought to be. The Prefbytt ry underttand there is another chute in the Bill, by which it is propofed out of the vacant Ripen& to mile a fund for augmenting the ftipends of thole panthea to which theTeinds are already exhautted, without an adequate proviion being made for the Clergymen. This elude the Prelbytery eona Eider as perfedlly nugatory. In place of holding out any confobtioo to their brethren who are fo unfortunately fi•uated, it teems rather like (porting with their neceffides. For the prefeut generation mull be wholly extind, before any confiderable fi.nd can be railed in that way; tinkers Prefloyterians were, with that vi w, nunereffarily to prolong the vacancies which may happen within their refpeCtive bounds, and thus to facrifice theinterelts of religion to that of their brethren. This, it is to be hoped, they will nat do. But to this the Haute alluded to certainly holds out a temptation. and ought therefore to be oppofed by every nun who confiders the interelts of rtligion as worthy of his attention. The Prefhytery, at this meeting, had a Memorie laid before them for theit confideration, prefrnted by the Prelbytery of Pail. ley to the Commiffionera of the County of Renfrew appointed to carry into execution the Tax upon Property; in which Memorial a claim of exemption from that and other taxes is ftated. and fup ported by plaufible arguments.
