JODOMIXT IN 2E5 CAIfl OF RITOALISM.—Sir Robert
Phillimore gave judgment in the twin cases of "Menlo
v. Ilackonochie" and " Flamank r. Simpson" lut
Saturday. Mr. Mackonochie had to answer for five
acts of alleged Romaniam—the elevation of the
elements, accompanied by "emissive kneeling;"
the ass of incense at the Eucharist; the mining of
water with the wine; and the use of lighted candles
on the holy table. Rejoicing tbal he had nothing
to do with the dednition of doctrine in the ease, the
learned judge recapitulated the arguments against /moll
and all of these practises which the "promote?' had
sought to make good. Those pleas were—first, that
the " rites and ceremonies" in question were new, and
theretere unlawful; neat, that they were specially pro-
hibited ; thirdly, that they were prohibited by implica-
tion u tending to Romanism ; and lastly, that they
have been disused sine* the Reformation. His lord-
ship dismissed the third objection, of implied
. . .

. .
Rotuanism, as untenable against • "rate of ceremony"
otherwise admissible, and he also refined to rule that
such • " rite or ceremony" could become illicit by
desuetude. But upon the other grounds alleged
be has pronounced against Mr. Mackonochis, in
regard to the "elevation." the "excessive kneel-
ing." and the "incense," all things which the
Romanist priest had indeed given up before the
suit name on; and Sir Robert Phillintore further pro-
nounose against mixing water with the wine, but
permits the lights upon the altsr-table. Mr. Simpson
WU moreover admonished not to place the offertory
money on a stool instead of on the altar, and was
adjudged to pay rf4o ,uocei,w expensarest ; while, in the
other awe, no nrder was made as to costa. [Notwith-
