CHELMSFORD and BURY RAILWAY STOW3IA.RKET BRANCH. (Registered Provisionally.) to inform info The Committee of ra a Le Shareholders that they have determined, under powers existing in the deed of settlement, upon adding to their project a Branch frc en Lavenham to Stowniarket, there to effect a junction with the Ea, %tern Union Ex tension line, thus forming not only the most direct r 'lite to Norwich hitherto projected, but, as may be seen by an inspect! On of the map, the shortest within the limits of practicability. The Chelmsford and Bury Railway, by means of its t Thetford Ex tension, secures the traffic of the northern and west tra districts of the counties ‘.4' Suffolk and Norfolk, together with a I. irge portion of that of Norwich ; and by means of its Stowmarket Br torch and the connexion thus formed with the Eastern Union Exte salon and the Waveney Valley lines (to both of which it is a most ;valuable co adjutor), It secures over forty miles of its length not only the re maining traffic of Norwich, but the whole of that of t, )e important port of Yarmouth, to which must be added the towns • c 1 Becclee, Bungay, Harieston,Diss, and Stowmarket, with all the m ›r thorn and eastern districts of the above-mentioned counties. The great Increase of traffic secured beyond the reach c I'. competi tion by this bran3h wou'd amply compensate for even tut I 'xtrava gant outlay in its formation. The Committee, however, La ve great , pleasure in stating that, after a preliminary sur ve y , the eng2 leer has reported the locality to be so unusually favoura ble for railiss "ay pur poses as to justify them in entertaining the confident hope, that no additional capital beyond that mentioned in their prospeetna will be required for its construction; a more detailed survey, I.,oweve r, Is in course of completion, the result of which *will be shortly Sul milted to the Shareholders.

The objects of the Midland and Thirsk Junction Railway a re , three fold; firstly, to open up and fully develop one of the richest t lelds of Coal and Ironstone in the kingdom ; secondly, to make a Tr 2n k Lille of communication from South to North, between the Mid lax id and the Leeds and Think Railways ; and, thirdly, in conjunct lot i with the Midland at Oakenshaw, the Mangy Nester and Leeds and th e' Wake field, Pontefract and Goole at Wakefield, the Leeds and Dew ill ury at er near How:ey Mills, the Bradford and Leeds at or near C: tiv erley, and the Leeds and Thirsl at - or near Horsforth, to afford to the msely PopUlated and important manufacturing .ctistrict through w bit it the line is intended to pass, the best facilities for • the conveyance of Pas sengers, merchandise, &c., to all parts of }he country. The intended line runs parallel with none of the projected .icht 'lnes of last session, and cannot be said to interfere with any of t hem I ; it is perfectly independent, and imperatively called for. The quantity of coal procured from different collieres now 'a tusk ing in the Howden Clough and Cockersdale Valleys (which ai "e on the intended line of railway) is about 6,000 tons per week, and NA :hen the railway now projected is formed, it is believed that the nen - age supply weekly will be upwards of 20,000 tons, so that from this east and inexhaustible field of coal, occupying more titan 10,000 ac , •cs, and averaging twenty feet in thickness (of workable coal) an ir ili netted supply of the best and cheapest coal in as the kingdomthe will ore be available for the London market (via Goole), well as nt neighbouring towns of Wakefield, Leeds, Halifax, Bradford, Be' vs bury, Bingley, Keigldey ' Skipton, Otley, Harrogate, Knaresbo ro n Ripon, &.c., &c., where in most cases the reduction will be at In Ist one-half, ant in the more distant places much more than this amoe Let of reduction, and in all which places an abundant supply of good at id cheap coal is of the highest importance. The revenue to be really el from this source alone, it is believed, will yield a most ample rats en for the capital required. Besides passing through the centre of this immense coal fleld e ; s the railway traverses a district affording accommodation to a popul at, en of upwards of 335,000 inhabitants, and whilst affording every fv,zot 0- modation to this vast population, whose internal traffic must fleet s martly be very great, it receives an additional indemnity from- the relative position in which it stands to other hues, so that for int er nal resources and external relations its advanta;es .are almost n la rivalled. This line affords the most direct communication from North to South, and will be a nearer route fram Huddersfield, Waketla Id, tit anchester, South Lancashire, Cheshire, and all parts of the Sout to that much frequented waterin -place, Harrogate, and will form a most eligible line, with appropriate stations at Wakefield, Alver - thorpe, Batley, Drigldington, Tong, Pudsey, Stanningley, Calverley,. and Horsforth. The length of the main line will be about sixteen miles, and the branches six miles. The project is warmly supported by the landed and local inteinsts, and by a large body of mercantile and wealthy individuals in the above districts, who, confident of a successtld issue, will use every means for bringing the project before the Legislature next session. The Company reserve the power of making an extension ?rem their line to Bradford, at the most convenient point for the convey ance of the minerals, &c., if adequate provision be not made by vnothcr Company. The liability of each Shareholder will be restricted to the amount of his individual subscription, and interest will be allowed upon all calls after the rate of 4 per cent. per annum from the time the Act is obtained. The names of an influential Provisional Committee will be adver tised next week.

This railway will proceed trom York to Lancaster (about 72 miles) by the most direct practicable route, and pass near Knit; esborough, Harrowgate, Long Preston, Settle, and many other important places. The counties of York and Lancaster comprise a population of 3,500,000 persons, and are, perhaps, the most wealthy and populous divisions of the kingdom. The roads between York and Lancaster are mostly carried over the tops of hills, and, in winter, are nearly impassable; this line will pas:, along the valleys, and tke journey, now rarely made, by coach, within twelve hours, may be performed, on the railway, in two hours and a half. It will provide facilities of access to all the great manufacturing, mining, and agricultural districts of the north of England, to the Isle of Man, Inland, Scotland, and Wales; to Hamburgh, by connecting Merecombe Bay and Fleetwood Harbour on the west coast with the port of Hull on the east coast; to the lakes of Westmoreland and Cumberland; to Harrogate, celebrated for its unrivalled sulphur, mineral, and chalybeate springs; and to the important intermediate districts between York and Lancaster. which abound with valuable minerals, and raise vast quantities of live stock and agricultural pro duce. Many places near the Intended course of the line are known to possess inexhaustible supplies of heal, iron, slate, limestone, free stone, and other usefill minerals, but these are now comparatively unavailing, from the great cost of coals and carriage. Time railway will rapidly develop these sources of prosperity, byintroducing coals at a low price, and providing cheap carriage for mineral produce of every kind ; it will also furnish a most desirable means of transit for passengers and merchandise to and from every part of the king dom, and a cheap conveyance for immense quantities of live stock and agricultural produce from the rural to the manufacturing and mining districts. Many completed and projected railways will intersect this line, and greatly facilitate traffic and intercourse in every direction; with the Directors of these railways, and of various others which have a station at York or Lancaster, the Committee will endeavour to snake arrangements likely to prove mutually bene ficial, and they have much pleasure in stating that the landowners along the line are extremely favourable to the undertaking, and con sider it will materially augment tfie value of their possessions and prove advantageous to the country and the shareholders. It has been fully ascertained that the proposed line presents but few engineering difficulties, and that, although it will pass through some very hilly districts, it may be comistrueled along valleys, and with favourable gradients throughout nearly its entire course. The liability of the shareholders will be restricted by Act of Parliament to the amount of their subscriptions, and power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at four per cent. per annum on all calls, from the passing of the Act to the opening of the line.

This line of railway will leave the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neilston Direct Railway at a point to the west of Pollokshaws, and through the parishes of Eastwood, Cathcart, Means, East Kilbride, Strathaven, and Stonehouse, into Lesmahagow, with branches to Eaglesham and other important places. The district traversed by the line is thickly peopled with inha bitants engaged in manufactures and an - icul;ure, and .s rich in ex tensive fields of , freestone, limestone, coal, and clay, and black band iron-stone, and other minerals. The line will be about 22 miles in length, and will afford the most direct possible communication with Glasgow, Paisley, Port Glasgow, Greenock, Ardrossan, and the many other towns and villages with which it will be brought into immediate connexion, by means of the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neilston Direct Railway, with its branches and extensions. It is difficult to form a full estimate of the advantages of this line, whether as respects passengers or minerals ; hut in regard to the lat ter, It may he stated that at present the whole gas coal used in the west of Scotland is brought from Lesmahagow by cartage Eit enor mous expense, and that the great Lesmahagow llrld, as yet not opened up, is ascertained to be unsurpassed in the extent, the rich -12,?, and facility in working of its coal, iron, and ether minerals, •,vincli, when brought into operation, will at once enrich the neigh bourhood of the line, and afford a handsome return to the promoters.

SIR,—It has ale aye appeared to me that a person who pub tithes a theological work incurs thereby a certain obligation, in case any part of his known conduct bear the appearance of contradiction to any opinion he may have advocated in that work : he is bound, I think, to make, whether his re tractation of the opinion, or his explanation of the apparent inconsistency, as public as he made the original work itself. It is for this reason, and not from any desire to intrude myself on general notice, that, being now en the point of formally submitting myself to what I believe to be the One Catholic Church, I beg of you the favour to make public the enclosed letter to a friend, copies of which I have circulated among my acquaintance far the last week or two. I shall, also, with your permission, append some notice of various objections which I have heard made against my proposed step; not as if I were writing a treatise, but merely so far as to mark the general im pression which those objections have made on my mind.

This Railway, taking its gradation upon ground that has hitherto not been taken up by any projecting company, will, if those at pre sent contemplated be carried into effect, complete the circuit of the is'and of Jamaica, and will form a most valuable addition to those about to be carried out. Prospectuses with full particulars will be issued in a few days, in the mean time any information may be ohtained by applying to JAMES WARD, Secretary. London, August 21, 1845 FLY and BURY ST. EDMUNDS RAILWAY. A Company is in the course of formation for the construction of a RAILWAY from the City of ELY to the Town of BURY ST. EDMUNDS. The Line will commence by a Junction at Ely with the Eastern Counties, Lynn and Ely, and Ely and Huntingdon Railways, and will terminate at Bury by a Junction with the Ipswich and Bury Railway. Its object is to preserve the mercantile connexion which has for generations subsisted between the county of Suffolk, tha town of Bury, and the Port of Lynn, and to afford to Ipswich, Colchester, and Bury, and all that portion of the kingdom, a direct communica tion with the manufacturing districts. The distance from Bury, and consequently from all places eastward of that town to Peterborough—the point at which so many Lines pass ing from the south and east to the north and north-west converge— will, by the Ely and Bury Line, be ten miles shorter than the route to that City by way of Cambridge.

A direct communication from Yarmouth to the Metropolis is of the utmost importance to the port and trade of Yarmouth. The ;:re sent route by the Norwich mai Yarmouth and Norwich and brandon Ralive,ys, now called the Norfolk Railway, conveys the Yarmouth traffic to London round by lsrandon, Ely, and Cambridge, to join the Northern and Eastern Railway—a distance of 146 miles. The ter minus of the .Norfolk Railway at Yarmouth is acknowledged to be most, inconvenient for the London trade, and the claims which it has upon Yarrneun are confined to the communication with Norwich and V.e western and north-western diet lets. A very large traffic exists between Yarmouth, Lowestoft, Beccles, Bungay, Halesworth, Harlestone, and hiss ; and also between all those important towns and Bury St. Edmund's, Stowmarket, Ipswich, and London. To supply the wants of these districts the Waveney Valley and Yar mouth Railway is designeol ; and it will shorten the distance between Yarmouth and London twenty-four miles. It is intended to construct the terminus upon the best site as near to Yarmouth -bridge as practictble. The line will communicate with the quay's, so as to take goods from the vessels on the river without transhipment or immediate carriage, thus saving considerable ex pense. This railway will run to the town of Beccles, thence to Bun gay (with a branch to Halesworth), t o Harleston, and Diss, commu nicating there with the Eastern Union Extension Railway, and by means of that line to Stowmarket, Bury, Ipswich, Colchester, Chelms ford, and London. At Diss the railway will be within three miles of the important market town of Eye, to which a branch may be ad vantageously constructed. Iu its course to Beccles it will cross the Lowestoft and Beedham line, and will afford the shortest communi cation from Lowestoft to London. The whole length of the main line will not exceed thirty-three miles, and the branch to Hales worth will be about nine miles. The population of the district through which it runs, taking the parishes within three miles of the line, is upwards of 100,000, according to the last census. The valley is one of the richest agricultural districts in England ; it produces large crops of grain, and abounds with rich pasturage, a very large portion of the barley is malted at Harlestone, Haleswortis, Bungay, and Beccles, and supplied to the large London brewers. The export of corn and flour from Yarmouth exceeds that of any port in the kingdom, the average being yearly 435,690 quarters. 70,000 tons of goods and 173,485 tons of coals are annually im ported into Yarmouth to supply the wants of the district. There are 574 registered vessels, comprising a tonnage of 50,375, belonging to Great Yarmouth, and 3,400 ships yearly enter that port. Upwards of 100 vessels are employed in the mackerel fishery, and 200 in the herring fishery ; the capital employed in these trades ex ceeds half a million of money. In addition to the above, very many other fishing craft are em ployed in catching turbot, soles, cod, haddock, whitings, shrimps, B:c., the greater part of which are sent to London ; and, as the fishing banks of the North Sea present an inexhaustible supply of these com modities, and the metropolis an almost boundless market for cheap and good fish, it may confidently be expected that the immediate and permanent effect of a quick transit between the two places will be a vast increase in this branch of traffic ; and it is anticipated that large quantities Of Scotch salmon will be landed at Yarmouth, to avoid the tedious passage between this part of the coast and the metropolis. An immense quantity of live stock is sent from the district of this railsvay to London, which, in the event of this line being made, must pass upon it. Yarmouth is increasing extensively as the watering-place of the eastern coast. A great number of houses have recently been erected, to accommodate the requirements of visitors during the season, and many others of a first class are now in course of building. The traffic on this line of road has been taken, and is estimated to produce, independently of the fish carriage, a return of £39,483 0 0 To this add for fish traffic frosts Lowestoft, according to the present quantity supplied to the London market, calculated at a low rate ..... .......

The traffic has been taken very moderately, and it slay be fairly calculated that the amount will be very considerably increased by increased trade (particularly in fish, cattle, and grain), when the road is opened, and the facilities which railways afford are developed to a country hitherto I/accommodated with such ad vantages. The line has been carefully surveyed, and no engineering difficulty presents itself. It may be constructed very cheaply and speedily. The Waveney Valley forms a natural level channel without a single impediment ; and where the line leaves the valley the cuttings are not heavy, and are required for the necessary embankments in the lower lands. This railway is brought forward with the general concurrence and approval of the country and towns through which it passes. It is now the universal opinion that this line is absolutely required by the district, and that without it the trade of this portion of the country will materially suffer, and consequently the value of property be depreciated by the competition of those neighbouring towns to which the great advantages of railway communication have been granted. Provision will bo taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest on the deposit and calls until the line is constructed. Powers will be taken in the Act to drain the marsh lands of the valley through which the line passes.

Protheroe, Esq., 10, Old Jewry-ebambers,London This railway is intended to connect the South Wales Railway at Chepstow with Gloucester, Cheltenham, and Birmingham, with the projected Cheltenham, Oxford (and London direct), Gloucester, and Aberystwith, Northampton and Cheltenham, and Manchester and Southampton Railways ; thus forming an uninterrupted line of com munication from the South of Ireland, through Fishgard and Milford in t embrokoshire, to Gloucester, Cheltenham, Oxford, and London direct, Southampton, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, and the North of England, by a less circuitous route than can be effected by any of the projected plans far crossing the Severn below Gloucester, thereby avoiding the difficulties which must necessarily be encoun tered in such an undertaking, and affording the important towns and districts upon the intended lines that accommodation which their im portance entitles them to. The whole of the traffic upon the South Wales line passing to the Eastward of Chepstow will be carried on this line ; added to which the coal and mineral traffic from the Forest of Dean (which, from the Eastern side to Gloucester, has been estimated upon authentic documents and information, at upwards of 300,000 tons ; and from the Western or Lydney and Chepstow side the same amount of traffic may safely be calculated upon), amounting to 600,000 tons per an num (the produce of the Forest alone), must be carried upon the line, independent of the local passenger traffic and an extended trade in the produce of the Forest, which will necessarily follow the facilities offered by the proposed railroad. The revenue from this source alone will give a very handsome di vidend upon the capital to be expended, which is expected will not exceed three-fourths of the intended capital. It is proposed to make branches to the Collieries and Iron Works in the Forest, to the present or any new Ports which may suggest themselves on the Severn; and to make the River Wye, at Chep stow, the port of foreign export, where vessels of any size can enter tree from the dangers and difficulties attendant upon the navigation of the Severn, consequent upon the rocks and shifting sands in that river. It is intended to build a bridge across the Severn at Gloucester, which will In no way obstruct the navigation ; and the proposed Gloucester and Aberystwith Company will no doubt be ready to join this Company in the expense, if they obtain their Act. The cost of the intended line from Chepstow to Gloucester, including the bridge at Gloucester, and the one over the River Wye, at Chepstow, to join ethe South Wales, with branches to the Collieries, Iron Works, and the Severn, is not expected to exceed 450,000/., but it is intended to provide a capital of 600,0001. to meet any contingencies which may arise. A reference to the map will show iho self-evident importance of this line as essential to the perfecting the great project of the South Wales Railway Company (who have obtained their Act of Perna meut for a railroad from Fisliguard and Milford Haven to Chepstow) n connecting it with the principal railways of the kingdom, at Gloucester, and making it the direct road to London, via Cheltenham and Oxford, for effecting which projects are now before the public with most influential support. The line is twenty-six miles in length, has no engineering difficulties; the gradients and cages are extremely good, and works light. It may with very great confidence be asserted, that there is scarcely a short line of railroad in the kingdom which offers greater advantages to the Shareholders than the present. Pro viaon will be made in the Act of Parliament which will be applied for in the next Session to limit the liability of the Shareholder to the amount of his Shares, and to allow four per cent. on the calls.

In congratulating, the Shareholders On the issue of the late contest in Parliament, the Committee of :Management beg to announce that active measwes are b e n g adopted to forward the surveys and plans, 'and prepare for the ensuing session. The success of the Oxford and Rugby Railway has confirmed the Directors in the view they enter tained wden they first brought to the notice of the public the merits of a line direct from Birmingham to Oxford, and leaves little room to doubt that Parliamen t will grant this important continuation, thus connecting the whole north of the kingdom and Birmingham with the south-western districts.- It is intended to make the most convenient stations for the various towns on the line that circumstances will admit, connecting the line at Birmingham with that of the Grand Junction Company. By this means en uninterrupted transit will be effected from Birmingham through Oxford to every part of the south and to London.

In such circumstances it was natural, or rather inevitable, to fall back on the sort of theory contained in my work. I was led, I say, naturally to such considerations as the following " The progress from truth to error cannot be made in one leap; persons cannot, on the mere word of an external authority, embrace at once a whole class of new doctrines, foreign, and at first even repugnant, to their moral nature. The doctrines, again, to which I allude, are but accessories to the central verities of the Gospel—not those verities themselves ; and sill follow in due time, in proportion as those verities are rightly believed, heartily embraced, and fed on by prayer and contem plation. The grglish Church, then, at present, witnessing as it does those truths in its tormularies, but silent, to say the least, on these accessories, does seem a providential ordinance adapted to prepare minds by degrees for the doctrine and com munion of Rome " Almost every page of my work, I might say, will show that this is the view I there advocated. That such a course of conduct, if avowed, w 'a a course con. sh.tent with perfect- honesty and integrity, cannot, I conceive, be questioned. As to subscription to the Ankles, I have no wish to enter again into a worn-out controversy ; but I believe as firmly as ever that no consistent person, of whatever opinions, can subscribe all our formularies without offering the greatest violence to the natural meaning of language ; and, considering that the existing church, in some shape or other, is necessarily the ‘. iroponens," however grievous a burden such formularies must be to any community, I do not think any one need scruple in offering that violence, whether with the view of reconciling the Articles to Roma,,, or the Prayer Book to Lutheran opinions, so long as he says plainly, in the face of day, what sense he does attach to the wor'ls, and rs• mains without interference from constituted authorities. But in my case my opinions were not only avowed, they were mast conspicuously (many say with even an ostmtatioas pa rade) put forward. I called on " High Churchoien" of various grades to combine in the objects of impressing more deeply on the minds of our people the great truths to which I just al luded, and which they all protess, and willinglir staked the truth of my own further opinions upon the resu' t. I was, and am, most undoubtingly confident that nothing more is necessary to dispose people fully for the reception of all Roman doctrine, when brought b e f ore th em , t h an a hearty, unsusp i c i ous, and laborious appropriation of that portion of truth plainly wit nensed by our Church. I might here, then, allude to the addi tional reason for giving up the hopes I entertained when I wrote my work, which arises from the tinderiable fact, that " anti-Roman High Churchmen" have shown no sort of wil- PRI Cil sd, lingness (quite the reverse) to unite with what are called " ex treme" persons on any such terms. But my pressnt purpose is merely to point out how completely the decision of the Eccle siastical Courts has destroyed whatever there might otherwise have been of plausibility in the theory I maintained as to the . office of our Church. I say, then, that however plausible such a theory might have appeared so long as the holding of the Roman doctrine was allowed to be an open question among our clergy, not a word more need be said to prove how utterly extravagant it became from the moment that all the instructors of our people were bound to renounce some part of that doctrine. It rtgairee certainly a very enthusiastic hoper to imagine that our Church could really be made extensively available for the object sup posed, when every one who entet ed on her ministry, or received a degree at either university, was called upon to renounce that object as inconsistent with the claims of religious truth. I have made it, I trust, sufficiently plain, that supposing me still to agree in every sentiment I expressed in my work, nothing which I have said constitutes my defence for remaining in my present position. My defence was grounded on two maim sup ports ; both these supports have given way. But I am bound to add, that in ,, st firm, unmoved, and (as I believe) immoveable as is my conviction of the main prin ciples advocated in the " Ideal," there was one incidental opinion, of considerable importance to the present question, on which my views have undergone a change. To show that this change is rather in the application of principles than in prin ciples, allow me to quote a passage from the last chapter in my work. " He who is thus disciplined, who feels deeply his exceed ing blindness, helplessness, and ignorance, and the existence without him of an, unknown and unspeakably precious reality, will eagerly believe and appropriate whatever is placed before him in the course of nature, professing to be a voice from,. or an economical representation of that reality. Aga i n he will have fully learnt, &c. will follow, as a primary axiom, that his pa , en's have brou - ght him into connexion with a4,me body professing to teach with authority, so long as be is able to repose unchanged confidence in that body, it is that very oracle for the conveyance to him of eternal truths before which duty requires him to bow. Should ihe case be other— wise, iu a heathen country, he will be able to discriminate with precision between the right and the wrong in traditionary s t :oerstitions, and will thug elicit confirmation of his faith.' and accessions to it' even out of corruptions of the truth.' But rather' would he anticipate, that there is come home in which this moral reality may have a secure rest and lodgment. that it may be dispensed to men according to their needs ; or at least he would be di awn with a most eager and spontaneous longing; towards any body which would profe•s to be that home, And those marks, in any society, would especially attract his view. which appear to be most kindred in their natures and origin to eternal truth itself; for instance; to use ecclesiastical language, unity in doctrine throughout all ages—sanctity—Catholicity, its proclaiming one and the same messages in all lands—Apos tolicity, its referring back to some signal ii.terfercnce with the visible course of things from the world bey ond the veil."

The principles here expressed, if suffleiently considered,, would have prevented me, !think, from supporting myself in the English Church on the theory which 1 have been drawing out : and I should add that Mr. Newman took an early opportunity of expressing to me his disapprobation of that theory. Ob serve distinctly, that I am not speaking cf those who (►ike my self indeed) are unable to recognise aey eefinite teas' ing what ever in the English Church, hut who (unlike myself) find ire the Ilornate doctrines, as appreherided he them, thing, a hid' (I do not say merely call for an enlarged memure of faith, but which) offer actual and serious violence to their moral nature : what is their duty is a matter altogether distinct. Much less am I saying a word in disparagement of the principle I have so earnestly advocated throughout my work, viz., that it is the duty of all persons to accept heartily, conscientiously, and practically, in the first instance, the religious system they are taught. But I say, in my own case, that I think I was called upon either to look on the Church of England as my teacher, or to unite myself to the communion of the Church of Rome and not to devise theories, under which I might look on one Church as my teacher, while I remained in communion with another. Now it is some considerable time since Mr. Newman's writings and teaching (however edifying I found it in all other respects), altogether failed to commend itself to me as being in the least exponential of any teaching of the F.nglisle Church. lodeed, during that time, I might have seen that 1 oar deceiving myself in thinking that 1 did simply follow his teaching ; for, whereas he strenuously disavowed any authority except as interpretative of the one of the English Church, when I was unable to accord to him that claim 1 was unable to follow his teaching, in that very particular wkich be himself represented as con:eiteting his only right to teach. I should add, ton, that etideiveal thought and experience has much increased my sense (eehich before indeed was very great) of the extreme importance of a living and energising,: dogmatic system. If the claims of such a system long re main unreergnised among us, I hardly knew how to express, without appearing to agitate, how great are my fears as to the miserable error into which even very well-intentioned and right-minded persons may be led, in the course of inquiry and speculation. Nor need I say how serious an addition this con stitutes to the many other grave phenomena which seem cla morously to enforce on us all the duty of reviewing very nre fully, and weighing very accurately, the reasons adducible ha defence of our present position. Nothing, indeed, can be more pregnant with mischief thatu any step rashly and lightly undertaken, however good in itself.. Fur my own part, though my present convictions are not con sciously owing to any sudden extei nal impulse, but are the na tural result of my own thought and observation, it seems never theless a duty to make plain to ethers, as well as to myself, that they are staple and genuine convictions, by refraining fom any irrevocable step, until there may be time for my intentions to become known wherever they would be really cared fur, and: for any arguments or . remonstrances to be duly weighed. At the same time, I should he hypocritical if I affected to think it. likely that my determination will be altered hy anything I &bail hear said against it. I remain, my dear Most sincerely yours, W. G. WARD. • In the present copy of this letter I have made one or two, verbal alterations; and have, moreover, marked with an as terisk two passages which I find to have been misunderstood In more than one quarter, and which w ere in fact inaccerstelys expressed. In order to explain these passages, I will stated brietly (for in a letter such as this there is no room for amplifi cation) what now appears to me the truth, on a subject which I regard myse4 as having treated erroneously in my work. In proportion as any one realises the extreme importance, sacredness, and necessary mysteriousness of religious troth, own exceeding blindness and helplessness, and the awfully se riots errors into which uncontrolled or misdirected specutatiom may lead him, he will be unwilling, I conceive, to follow as ant ultimate guide on matters of doctrine any authority which is not directly entrusted by God with the office of dispensing re ligious truth. No teacher, then, who does not possess a direct. Divine authority, much less one who distinctly disclaims it, will ever exercise despotic influence over his belief ; and if Providence has subjected him to some religious body which does claim Divine authority to teach, front the moment that he is deliberately unable to recognise that authority, he will consider himself fully justified, or rather beto,d, to look elsewhere, it tiaidy he may meet with some other body, to whose communion he may attach lime 11, and to whose teaching he may sebnatt himself. What will be the ditty of such a one in case he should dis cern no authority which presents to !;is conscience tokens of s Divine commission, I am not considering; but merely what is his duty if he do discern such an one. In that case, I say he is bound, when he is sufficiently sure of himself that it is a. real matter of conviction, to submit himself to that authority without reserve ; and I retract the contrary opinion, which is contained in my work, as savouring of l a titudinarianism, and of indifference to religious truth. I think that one especial dispensation by means of which God leads h er re umble souls to his true Church, is the circumstance, that othreligions bodie, the more trustingly they are believed and obeyed, the more c ruelly pierce him who lea ns on them . but that his Church convr ys to her children an ever-increasing sense of his Divine authority, in propottion as they humbly trust her and lovingly obey ter. Those who care to know my reasons for thinking that the E n glish Church, whether her voice be listened for in her for mularies, or in her practical teaching, is no trustworthy guide (and, I may add, for thinking that neither the Bibl e nor an tiquity, interpreted by private judgment, ate any trustworthy ,tides e ither), I must refer to my large wor k, a n d to my o Address to Members of Corrocation," where they will find these questions treated of tit length. An Ajection has been lately made to me in private, against what has just been said, as follows has been objected that the English Chu . , ch does teach with Divine authority the Creeds; because, so fir F. 5 they are concerned, she speaks, " not as tine English Church, but as conve; ing to us the faith of the Catholic Church, such as it was from the beginning." But let me ask—how do we know that these Creeds contain the faith of the Catholic Church such as it was from the beginning? If by our own private researches into antiquity, then our rule of faith is not the English Church, but antiquity interpreted by private judgment; which is altogether a different matter. The objector, indeed, to whom I refer, :.lion: they disclaims such a view as this, in his own name and in ihat of " 11 , gh ( hurchmen" in general. Taking then the other alternative—let any one consider the passages so commonly quoted in controversy from the Ants- Nicene Fathers (passages at first sight so directly in contra diction with important portions of the Creed), and let him say, if he is able to trust the English Church on so difficult and historically doubtful a matter as the question whether the Creeds really express the Church's faith from the Hrst, what must he not trust the English Church? In a word, (speaking of external authority only), if we receive this fact (of the apostolicity of the Creeds) en the authority of the English Church, so far we do not believe the Creeds to be in fallibly true. ihe way is nos: clear to explain the pass. go in my letter whnsts are marked with an as . .erisk I hey: hen sueless.d to atknowledge in those passages, that the English Ccuren witnesses these doctrines in the same sense in villich the Ronan Catholic (Aural witnesses them ; that itt, that she AVIES'S BEST SPERM CANDLES, Is.
