CONVOCATION OF THE PROVINCE OF CANTERBURY.
—The Archbishop of Csoterbury attended and formally
opened the Upper-home, but no business was traomict.
In the Lower•house the Venerable Archdeacon Denison
submitted a gravamen in reference to the order for the
burial of the dead, complaining that no manage bad been
sent down on this subject from the Upper-bouse. The Rev.
M. W. ldayow also presented a gravamen on the same sub- ,
It appeared that it was highly important that legis-
lative
action in this matter should not take place without
referenos to the synods of the church, and that even if the
judgment of the synods were not sought, it was their duty
to take upon themselves the responsibility of speaking, lest
the church should auger by their silence. He asked that
the standing orders might be suspended, in order that he
might move a resolution on the subject. This was agreed
to, and the rev. gentleman moved a resolution requesting
the prolocutor to appoint a committee for the purpose of
considering alleged difficulties in the order of the burial of
the deed, and to report thereon to the home. The Rev.
Canon Selwyn seconded the motion. The motion, after a
long discussion, was carried by a large majority. The Rev.
Canon Selwyn proposed and carried a rider to the resolution
in the following words :—" That the prolocutor be requested
to communicate to their lendshipe the satire readiness of the
Lower-house to cooperate with the Upper in dealing with
this important subject." After the Menerction of some
other business of no particular interest the home ad_ jounied.
