opinion, that the Scriptures—the canonical Scriptures, which-

re infallible ; and this opinion is not to be
gainsaid, on pain of Anathema Maranatha. I can well under-

ever they be—

stand a man declaring it to be his opinion that the Scriptures

'e infallible, if he has discovered errors in them, and I can

also understand a man asserting it to he his opinion, that it is
highly probable that the Scriptures will be found infallible by

every careful student, far as far as he had tested then he

could not find any error in them: But I should be surprised,

indeed, if such a man r:fased to see

the possibility of one

" greater than he" coming after him, and seeing errors that
had escaped him. I, therefore, a7gue that until there
shall arise a man who his, himself, infallible—as Jesus

was—that no man, as he is at present constituted, can
predicate of the Scriptures that they are infallible. Jesus
himself never declared them so to be. And inasmuch as

allibility cannot in the Athanasian sense comprehend
nfallibility any more than the finite can comprehend the
nfinite, so I argue a priori that man is not likely to discarer

what is and what is not infallible to such a certainty as, in
justice to his fellow man, will allow of his dogmatising on the

subject. Yet we find pious 4nd sincere men dogmatising on
this very question to the extent of even p9inting out to the

man who differs from 'them as a man to be avoided—as a

dangerous man

If I am wrong in my reasoning; and therefore in my con-
clusions, I shall be glad to bo set right, for I am open to con-
viction, and meanwhile I remain, sir, your obedient servant,
A LOOKER ON.

ADDRESS IN PARLIAMENT ON THE
RECRUITING QUESTION.

The following are the terms of the address which Mr:
Baillie will move in the House of Commons on Thursday

evening next :

."rhat an humble address be presented to her Majesty
thanking her Majesty for I:aving been graciously pleased to
communicate to this hor.se papers relating to recruiting in the
United States of Atnerica :
" To inform her Majesty, that we observe it is admitted
that the law of the United States, with respect to foreign
enlistment, is no less just than stringent ; and that in making
this admission, her Majesty's government declared that on no
account would they run any risk of infringing this law of the

United States :
" To express to her Majesty our conviction that for some
weeks, both before and after this declaration, recruiting was
carried on within the United States by her Majesty's officers,
without any communication of the measures taken by them to
the government of that country, but with tho knowledge and
co-operation of her Majesty's envoy at Washington ; and that
proceedings have occurred which were at variance with our
international obligations, and which her Majesty's advisers were
unable or have failed to prevent :
"That, accordingly, while we perceive with satisfaction that
during the course of these actions some measures have been
adopted by the Ministry in a spirit of conciliation, we are una.
ble to declare Cie complaints of the American government, that
the laws and rights of that country have been violated, to have
been advanced without cause :
" That, while we assure her Majesty of our firm dete
nation to assert now as heretofore, if justice shall require
rights and dignity of the crown, we have to express our c
viction that wo shall he best prepared to acquit ourse'
that duty by the frank admission and complete --
wrong :

Ives of

gard to
g other

with these views, and, moreover, having re
the means which appear to be available for composiu
matters in dispute, we humbly beseech her Majesty to adopt
such measures, with reference ?i3 the correspondence on foreign
enlistment and its consequences, as in her judgment shall,
while carefully guarding the honour of the crown, promote the
restoratica of a good understanding and of close and cordial
amity between Great Britain and the United States of

iilnCl'iCa

Sir De Lacy Evans—Amendment on motion of Mr. %alio,.
on recruiting in the United State., to leave out from the first

word " That" to the end of the question, in order to add the

words "in the means resorted to by government for rein-

forcing our army in the field, it is the opinion of this house
that, instead of inviting enlistments from the United States,

it had been more politic to have entertained such offers

as were made by high), respectable parties for raising corps
from amongst loyal Canadian fellow subjects," instead thereof.

PALMER'S EXECUTION AND THE EAILWAIS.—The receipts
from passengers going from Manchester to Stafford, by the
only available train, on Saturday morning last. at 4 23 alone,
