judgments of an offended Godhead on the form
religious faith which they had adopted, or on them
for that adoption—" which renders it impossible for
her to be buried in the church-yard ? I refuse her
burial there." The italics arc this humble-minded
parson's ; and so is the law announced in this passage ;
his law is as worthless as his divinity, and his logic
still worse than his law. For what has the abstract
criminality of a profession of "damnable heresy" to
do with the physical " impossibility" of burying in
the churchyard the dust of her who professed it?
It might make it impossible for his exalted consent to
given, and that was probably what this man of double
adverbs and a triple armour of folly, bigotry, and in•
humanity meant to say. "If you choose to have
her buried, without any service, you may do so."
Gentle spirit! Permission freely given for what he
had it not in his power to refuse. This, however, is
but a little gratuitous impel tinence. Let us now
mark how far a bigot's gratuitous insolence may
carry him. To this of I man, fur seven and fifty years
the husband of the respectable woman deceased
(themselves and their children having been reared
and nurtured as parishioners of Warminster), he adds,
" Or lest I should appear to deal harshly with you"
(never suspecting, holy man, that his harshness was
an obdurate, strong, heart-tearing fact), " I wiil pay
the charge for her burial, in the unconsecrated ground
at Townsend; but in the church-yard, with the burial
service, she shall not be buried."
He pay the charge of the poor woman's burial

Had the widow's husband submitted to such contume‘
lions charity, he would have been guilty of a
" heresy" to domestic affections, to the cause of those
civil rights, to the vindication of which every man is
bound by the condition of their enjoyment, more
" damnable" than we shall trust ourselves to describe.
Least of all could we trust ourselves to the calmness
necessary for such a purpose, after the miserable hy-
pocrisy of the sentiment which follows :—" I trust
Almighty GOD may open your eyes to repentance"—
(of what crime ? The not having attended this Mr.
FANE'S Church, to be edified by his personal ex-
ample of meekness, charity, and love ?) He proceeds,
" if such a thing may be, but I fear you have
sold your Saviour for thirty pieces of silver." This
metaphor is utterly inexplicable to our dull apprecia-
tion. If it have anything to do with some fancied
analogy in the treason of JUDAS ISCARIOT to the con-
duct of Mr. HAINES, Mr. PANE may be in posses-
sion of the application ; an exclusive secret, we
should say, likely to remain as long undiscovered as
that of the composition of the Whitby Doctor's nos-
trums, but by no means calculated to prove as profit-
able to the discoverer. The humane and lowly parson,
who had so abruptly hailed his widowed parishioner
as plain " HAINES," concludes as drily and abruptly
by writing himself " ARTHUR PANE," without one
",;vale" of any sort, or one addendum of any kind to
his own designation ; but for the Wiltshire _lndependent
we should never have discovered that the letter had
been written by a clergyman.
But we have a little " vale" for the Reverend Mr.
PANE. He may take our word for it or not, as he
pleases, (we grant him as unlimited a leave in this
matter as he gave about burial in unconsecrated ground,
and fur just the same reason—namely, that we cannot
help it); that he will find, in the
.event of any legal
proceedings against bin,, it is a very difficult matter to
sustain, on the grounds upon which he rests his denial
of HaiNEs's application—the refusal to bury in his
churchyard a once baptized member of. the
Church of England. The law of these cases
was most laboriously argued in two or three
great cases before the late Sir Jousr Nicnom.,
and has been still more recently affirmed by Sir HER-
BERT JENNER DUST. We stare this, be it observed,
in the absence of all allegation that the deceased was
ever a relapsed or abjuring member of the Church of
England. Her baptism seems clearly proved. The
Rev. Mr. PANE may yet have to learn that he has
done "awfully foolishly," as well as cruelly, in ne-
glecting the injunction of a layman and a poet, whose
divinity really seems to us of a higher strain than his
own—in his prayer—(we quote it from memory)
Let not my weak and erring hand
Presume thy bolts to throw,
Or deal damnation round the land
On each I deem icy foe."
