assumed that England was a heathen counity ,‘Vi-ln-sil RF
we had had no religion for the last three hundred
years. The ignoring of such a church as the
Church of England was the ignoring of us all ; but
he protested against it, most of all, because it
ignored, in fact, the Church of Christ. His most
solemn protest against the Church of Rome was, not
that she had dishonoured our most gracious Queen,
but that she had dishonoured the Lord Jesus Christ.
His charge against the Church of Rome was, that II he
inculcated doctrines which defiled the purity of our
firesides, disturbed the whole scheme of social life, and
tarnished the glory of Him whose glory it was our
first duty to seek, and by our last effort to defend.
He hoped, then, that this daring and insolent effort
would create and deepen and kindle throughout Eng-
land still more a flame of sacred and enthusiastic an-
tipathy to the principles of Rome. He said " enthu-
siasm," not " fanaticism." Fanaticism was error,
inspired by hate ; but enthusiasm was truth inspired
by love. Fanaticism would believe in the Inquisi-
tion ; enthusiasm in God
.and the Church of the
Apostles. Fanaticism was like the rocket that as•
scended yesterday, and left only a denser darkness ;
enthusiasm like those subterranean fires in southern
lands which were detected, not by volcanic explosions,
but by fertile soils and golden harvests.—(Cheers.)
Let them, then, have enthusiasm in this matter, for
they might depend upon it that the time was come
when every man must take his place and his stand.
All societies were now split into two great sections—
those who were with Christ, and those who were with
Antichrist. Let all men learn to forget the minor
things in which they differed, and recollect the essen-
tials in which they agreed. Small then would be
their real differences. Liberality, not latitudinarian-
ism, became us all ; and if the worst came, let there
be reproach upon our names—a confiscation of our
goods—let there even he martyrdom amongst our
ministers—but let us be loyal to the Queen and faith-
ful to God.—(Cheers.) Then, in the words of Shak-
spere, he would tell the aggressor
" Thou canst not, cardinal, devise a name
So slight, unworthy, and ridiculous,
To charge me to an answer, as the Pope.
Tell him this tale; and from the mouth of England
Add thus much more—that no Italian priest
Shall tithe or toll i❑ our dominions;
But as we under heaven are supreme head,
So, under him, that great supremacy,
Where we do reign, we will alone uphold,
Without th,, assistance of a mortal hand.
So tell the Pope: all reverence set apart,
To him and his usurped authority."
The Reverend Doctor then resumed his seat amidst
loud cheers.

A vote of thanks was then passed to the Rev. Dr.
Cumming.
Three times three were given for the Queen, and a
hearty hiss fur the Pope, and the meeting, which had
been one of the most enthusiastic it was ever our lot
to witness, quietly dispersed.
