in the evening, the house was densely filled by a most
respectable audience, all of whom seemed by their anxiety
to take a lively interest in the issue of the proceedings.
The platform was crowded by clergymen and gentlemen
of various creeds. Mr. Miall was the first to appear upon
the platform, and on entering the room he was warmly
received by hisfriends. He wasfollowed almost immediately
by the Rev. Mr. Baylee, who was received by the meeting
with the most enthusiastic cheers. When silence was restored
Mr. ROBERTSON, as chairman for Mr. Miall, rose and
stated that they had met together by adjournment that
evening to resume the discussion of the question which
had occupied their attention on Friday evening last. It
would he unnecessary for him to say anything in addition
to what he then said, more than to bring before them in
substance the arrangements of the committee for the re-
gulation of the meeting, which were. the same as those
which had been announced on the last night of the dis-
cussion. He -could not, however, resume his seat with-
out returning his own thanks, and those of his ,flow
chairman for the very gratifying and harmonious spirit in
