EVeLIiSIASTICAL COMMISSION, he., BILL
On the order of the day for the second reading of this
bill.
Mr. SELWYN aid he strongly objected to the bill
being priseeded with. His objections might be summed
up in three words—centralisation, compensation, and coc-
kiest iOll. Oder this measure All the lands of the church were
to be vested in the Ecelesiastieal rommissiners, and such%
peencling waseuite unwarrantable. It was said that the
cathedral authorities had rnaudested great selfishness in the
matter. To that he replied that they had assented to ar-
rangements, whieh, if adopted, would have the effect or
preventing the income• of dean and canoes from being
even invested, and at the same time of providing
for tin supply of the: spiritual disabilitie. of
the recce. There was a general cseteurrence of
opinial, in that house against centralisation. The bill

CAIIII O► ?HC REV /VMS lIONWILL

This extraneilimiv case, which has been so long before
the public, and in which the lire. James Boswell, rector
of St. Philip's, fetspney. i. put on his defence oe account of
grave charger of immorality, came under the judicial cogni•
same of the Daum of the t "'eta t of Arches this morning, the
reverend gentleman having heen ailmoniahal to attend, and
elite a hail the article. ex eibited against him, or give
note, that he should oppose their admission.
tier John Herding, the queen's Advocate, represented the
Bishop of London, and opeain; the proceedings add that
this we. r proceeding under the Church Discipline Act,
and ease foe the heaeat of Mr. Bonwell's soul's
health, ice He proceeded t say that the articles had
been filed, and it would be necessary for him to go throes\
them tea d ...ail. The first article affirmed the general law
of the owe and the second contained the decree of pm-
sentetiou, institution, and herein, by which Mr. Boswell
wee put to pomeesion of the Stepney beagle. Upwanls of

while there he eystematerally represented himself to her

and having a wife alive at the till*. They alleged also
that Mr. Hormel' and 311... Yorath met afterwarls in Lon-
don, and that he harbour, l her in the school-room coit-
al/riot with hie church, when she gave birth to a male
child which afterwards died and was buried. They then
gave in detail the varinus arts of intimacy alleged to have
tat- a place bete's" Mr. II inwell and Miss Yorath in Lou-
don end various parts of the country. They all set teeth
the facts cossected with the birth of the child (Philip
Tenth). They urged Mr. Boswell'. connexion with the
birth, alleging that he eneseeel his medical man (Dr. God-
frey) to attend to the ceereeeeent, made arrangements for
the bring of the mime, pievately baptised the child, and
gave instructions to an undertaker to bury It when it died.
The last article was the utual formal am, that the Bev.
Janie* ainwell was a priest of the United Church of
Eng Lind and Ireland as by law established, and therefore
liable to punishment fair infrsctton of its law..
Mr. lloowell said that as there were representative.' of
the prees present, and a. these articles would nu doubt gu

a legal gentian of athads.ibility. This was a proceeding

court t a onler more specific dates. Many other articles
contained new natter fereigu to the cam, and which formed

Sir John Herding analyeeil at cousideralile length the

the court was now asked to a.huit. He contended that the
articles might endear° acts of immorality in other
dioceses, sense it was emesearr to insert acquaust-

to the 14040 charges which it was sought to peeve.
It was neireiver the intention of the article. to prove ailul-
