TO CORRESPONDENTS

In the letter which accompanied the communion plate pre-
sented to St. Saviour's Church, Miss Simmons was made
to say "new Jerusalem" instead of " our Jerusalem."
We have perused the letter of Dr. IMllolesworth with much
regret, because we have hitherto considered him to be a
man who would never lend himself to circulate such state-

ments as are contained in his letter. If the Pastoral Aid
Society issue any reply to his pamphlet, we shall publish
them together, though we see not the necessity for inter-
ference, since the letter of Dr. Molesworth carries on the
face of it the most complete answer to every objection•
We can well afford to pass by the doctor's " lesson" to
the STANDARD. It is an honour to be censured in com-
pany with the Bishop of Chester.
