on rather lower term.. Owing to the mild weather, and
the large importations of linseed cakes, we have to report

THE KNIGHTSBRIDGE CASE.

JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE prtivY

COUNCIL.

[Tho following appeared in our late elition of Sat'inlay
evening :—]
Pr, sent—The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishop
of London, Lord Wensleydale, Sir J. Patteson, Sir
W. li. Maul; and Mr. Pemberton Leigh.
In conequen3e of its bein 4 known that the julicial
committee of the Privy C,tincil woull give judg-
ment this afternoon in the 10; glynding ,uits insti-
tuted by the churchwardens of 5.,. B rnabas and Si
Paul's against the church declrations, adopted at•
these places of worship, a large number of respectably
dre,:sed persons attended, and the court was densely
crowded.
Mr. Pemberton Leigh read the judgment of the com-
mittee from a printed document. It was a very ela-
borate judgment, entering fully into the ancient
usage of ornaments, &c , in the Church, both
previous and anterior to the Reformation, and also to
the law, usage, and custom adopted at and since the Re
fcrmation, as well as the opinions of the ancient
reformers as to the propriety of the use of crosses, altars,
&e., rod occupied one h•orr and 20 mina,q in r.adi,.g,.
The judge took the objeclonable articles seriatim,
and first as regarded St. Barnabas. First,
as regarded the cross as an ornament of worship, their
lord-hips were of opinion that the cross, as diAinguished
from a crucifix, bad becn long in use as an ornament
of the Church, and that when the cross was used
merely as an emblem of faith, and Pot as an ob-
ject of superstitious reverence, it was still all )w-
-able. Considering the crow on the chancel screen,
at St. Barnabas, in the former light, their lordships ad-
vised her Majesty to reverse the judgment of the courts
below, and to all rw its continuance. With regard to the
stone altar, their lordships were of opinion that it mu-t
he removed and substituted with a• moveable table of
wood according to the ordinary meaning of the
. .

term table, so as to allow of its being moved from time
to time, according to the requirements of the cele-
bration of divine service. Their 1 ndships considered
that t'-me wooden cross attached to the table of St.
Paul's was inconsistent with the spirit and letter
of the regulations, and they rec nnroended that
the decree cf the Court below in re'erence -to it
should be affirmed. They advised the reversal of the
sentence with reference to the credence table, believing
it was authorised by the Rubric and Prayer-book. Their
lordship.] saw no reason to interfere for the reversal of
the sentence below with regard to the covering of the
communion table during divine service ; but they
affirmed the sentence requiring the table to
be covered with a fair white linen cloth, with-
out embroidery or lace attached to it. As the
judgments of the— courts below had been material'y
altered, their lordships decreed that so much
of the sentence in those counts as awarded costs against
the appell►nts should- be reversed, and that, in those
cases as well as in the present, each party should pay
their own costs. The judgment had received the entire
concurrence of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the
pre•.ent Bishop of London.
The decision of the Council on each of the points
was much applauded, accordingly as it met the views of
the various sections of the Church present.
