R. IV. Dale, MA., of Bir mingham. The address was a masterly disquisition upon" The Holy Spirit in Relation to the Ministry, the Worship, and the Work of the Church." After describing in language of great beauty the festival in Rome, which, in the summer of 1867, far transcended in brilliancy and splendour any , religious spectacle which Christendom had witnessed for many centuries, and remarking that that festival sug gested or confirmed the resolution of the Pope to convoke the (Ecumenical Council which is to meet in Rome next December, Mr. Dale said : The Council would be called upon to confront in the name of God, the great revolt of all the European nations against the authority of the priests. To have convened a Council for any purpose in such an age as this would have been an act of singular courage. But had it been summoned merely to define a new dogma, to condemn theologi cal heresies, or to regulate the interior discipline and organisation of the Church, the world might have listened to its lofty pretensions with a cynical smile, and suffered its decrees to pass into speedy oblivion. Rome, in her apparent weakness and peril, in the very extremity of her distress, has dared to do something far bolder than this. She has called her faithful sons from every country under heaven, that they may assert her .right to legislate for the human intellect in every province of its activity, and to control the social and political deve lopment of all Christian nations. Physical science, flushed with_ unexpected and intoxicating triumphs, must submit all its discoveries to the judgment of the Church — perhaps of the priest who happens to be Bishop of Rome. Criticism must shrink from investigating what the Church pronounces sacred,and be ready at her bidding to repudiate the conclusions which have been confirmed by the consent of innumerable scholars. Statesmen must invoke for their laws and policy the sanction of the Pope. Nations must lay at the feet of the priesthood the imperfect liberties which have been won by the suffering, the heroism, the treasure, and the blood of past generations; and if Rome commands it, that hope of a larger freedom which consoles and strengthens the hearts of the common people in every country in Europe must be surrendered. These are the claims which the Council will be asked to invest with the most solemn sanctions, and to defend with the awful anathemas. Whether this assertion of the transcendent endowments and powers of the Church is to be ascribed to policy or to faith, or whether it was suddenly inspired by the great enthusiasm of the Centenary, there is a certain moral grandeur in it, to which no abhorrence of Roman super stition can make us insensible. Rome in an age of uni versal scepticism has declared her unchangeable faith in the supernatural presence of the Holy Ghost, in ecclesias tical rulers, and councils. I wish to inquire whether our nobler creed is held with the same firm and vigorous grasp, and whether it is illustrated and con sistently maintained in the actual life and organisation and customs of the Congregational Churches of this country. When the whole drift of European thought is to exclude the living God from the material universe, we ourselves are in danger of denying or ignoring His immediate presence in the higher life of man. I pro pose to consider the theory and the practice of Congrega tional Churches, touching certain relations of the Holy Spirit to the ministry, the worship, and the work of the Church. In our theory of the ministry, the direct and supernatural action of the Holy Spirit is very distinctly recognised. The faculty of preaching is not to be acquired by any rhetorical discipline. There is a gift of utterance as well as of knowledge. There are special supernatural virtues and graces, as well as special supernatural powers, which are indispensable to the Christian minister To one is given by the Spirit a tender sympathy for the physical sufferings of mankind; to another, a noble abhor rence of social injustice, and mischievous laws and political tyranny ; to another, an unquenchable thirst for a more perfect knowledge of the mysteries of God's material uni verse; to another, an ineffable delight in poetry and art. We must appeal to God. It is because men have never received the supernatural call and the supernatural inspi ration that the vacancies which are occurring in our ranks are in danger of not being worthily filled, and that the number of our ministers does not more rapidly increase. Loud complaints are sometimes heard that our ministers come chiefly from the less educated and less wealthy classes in our churches. That is God's concern, not ours.—After rebutting the complaints that many minis ters had not gone through a college course of study, and admitting the importance of such help, Mr. Dale sz.id: Hearken, my beloved brethren, if God bath CLIOSCII poor, unscholarly man, "rich in faith," in energy, and zeal —if God bath given him the spirit of power, and of low, and of a sound mind—if he has rt,ceived of God the " spirit of wisdom and of revelation"—"who art thou that judges t another man's servant ?" To his own master he standeth or falleth. Yes, he shall be holden up, for God is able to make him stand. Strong sense, intellectual activity, shrewdness, wit, humour, fancy, these are to be found among our working people in larger mea sure than some of us perhaps suppose. And what reason can be alleged why Christian merchants, manufacturers, professional men, and tradesmen are not more frequently called to the pastorate ? Middle-clans schools must be established. Measures like that of Mr. Forster's must receive our vigorous support. Nor is there any reason why our Christian young men of this class who have received no call to the ministry should not have a thoroughly theological education. The learning which enables a man to read for himself, and to read intelli gently, the words of Hebrew prophets and Christian apostles, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, should cease to be a ministerial monopoly. We shall never have a really learned ministry until we have a more _learned Church. During the last quarter ' of a century the conviction has been deepening and spreading in the Congregational Churches in this country, that in our public services worship has been unduly subordinated to preaching; 'The conviction is just ; but the measures which have been resorted to with the hope of remedying the evil are aesthetic rather than spiritual; they appeal to natural religious sentiment, and leave the spiritual life untouched. Far grander works should occupy them than Church music, or even the build ing of places of worship in every neglected neighbourhood, much as that was desirable. Why should not every mem ber in every church throughout the country resolve to bring, by God's help, a friend, a neighbour, a brother, or a sister, to trust in Christ ? To accomplish this they needed not boundless wealth, nor heroic telf-sacrifice ; not an im possible perfection in the organisation of the strength of our Churches, but only that which God is eager to grant, and which may be had for the asking—the baptism of the Holy Ghost. During the remainder of the morning sitting of the Union several resolutions were passed, the most important of which was the following, which was moved by Mr. Carvell Williams and seconded by the Rev. J. C. Geikie :- 1. " That this assembly greatly rejoices that justice has at length been done to the Irish people by the passing of the Act for the Abolition of the Irish Church Establish ment, and also regards with great satisfaction the cessation of the Regium Donum and the withdrawal of the annual grant to Blaynooth College, as well as the refusal of the Legislature to sanction any scheme involving the concur rent endowment of various religious bodies in Ireland. That this assembly tenders its grateful acknowledgments to the Right Hon. W. Ewart Gladstone, M.P., and to the other members of the Government, for the ability and conscientiousness which have distinguished their conduct of the measure which has lately become law, and which, it trusts, will tend to promote the best interests of the Irish nation." 2. " That in view of the changes likely to be effected in the ecclesiastical and social condition of Ireland by the diseastablishment of the Protestant Epis copal Church, this assembly expresses the earnest hope that the Protestants of that country, both Episcopalian and Nonconformist, will bo prepared fully to avail themselves of the new and hopeful circumstances in which they aro now placed, by adopting vigorous measures for spreading evangelical truth among the population, and more especially that the Nonconformists of this country will be ready to afford to their Irish brethren effective and liberal aid in furtherance of so important an object.' A correspondent writing from Exeter says that the rectory of Honitori, which was declined a few days ago by the Rev. John Ingle, has since been offered to Prebendary Cox. An influential meeting has been held at Guildford, SulTey, to take steps to secure the exhibition of the Bath, West of England, and Southern Counties Association for that town in 1571. The necessary conditions were s hown to be fulfilled, gro und was available and money not wanting, a committee was therefore appointed to carry out the preliminary arrangements. The Rev. Canon Girdlestone has declined to sign the memorial against the appointment of Dr. Temple. Ho says that ho has too high an opinion of the Dean and Chapter of Exeter to fear their being influenced by any memorial, however numerously signed, to commit themselves to such a course. For the clergy even to recommend to those in a responsible position a breach of that law which they are all by their sacred calling especially bound, both by precept and ex• ample, to maintain, is, in his opinion, a colt* fAught with DeriLit.tha bhuntand typkjaaLtaila.
