THE CHUB.OI3 oa "ABSOLIJTS RIATHRNISIt."

To do Alma.

The roadies of the sharp sad miprovoked attack
upon myself, will not feel surprised that I decline Kr.
Naive's invitation to enter into • disoession with him.
One of the lassentable effects of the present eostroversy
la that some pima are melee it es • means of forneat•
leg a quarrel between Churchman cad Dimenters I
hope they will not noosed. In common with Mr. Ring.

with good men of MI denominations, end have gl•dly

and the London Qty Minion. We shall Mill be glad to
meet them as brethren (including Mr. Heave) la thole
or other good works ; bet they who marked A. wait of
feints's, souring, and shifty whisk shareetseined Mrs
Neave's *Steak, will not feel surprised at my decision.
With your leave I Amid like to make a few remarks
on the general questions °posed in his lettere, and
those of your other correspondent&
itooording to the Liberatiouista, the golden or. of
religion in this cooentry will be introdueed when the
National Church is disestablistied and dieendowed. I
hope the spirit which hos pervaded the attacks OM Kr.

In which public damndest on Heeladastiosl subjeote

it I. smooch for hir. Bingham to ',sprees his
belief that the R,tablimbed Churoh is au un-

doubt of the mu tamale of the volontary prinaple
to supply the vacuum 0004.10110 d by 11. over-
throw, for the vehement champtons of the latter to
pour upon Was all the vials of their wrath. It is enough
for myself to say that the temps of Mr. Bennett from
esondemnation does not justify woeselon, or involve the
Ivengelical members of the (thumb in any oomplielty
with Romish error, to otute the minister of the lod,.
pendent' to designate me, not only as a person of
extreme mental oblignity, bat aa one who "practises
Orals frauds and groats impositions" en the pablic.
Really sir, if such railing tecusations are the frail of
Dissenting principles, am I not Fsetilled in saying that
the tree mast be rather bitter. I don't believe they
are the gotta& fruit of Dissent, for there are multi-
tude, of Noneudormist, who are Mamma by the
Spirit of Christ, but they do soma to be oonnected with
the so-oallesi Ishoration Society.
Any person of candid mind who read Mr. Bloghtun's
letter, would have emu that ho was sot attacking the
voluntary principle, but simply Mating in obviols
truth. Sir, if the voluntary principle ha. not been
able even to supplement t'ut labours of the church.
