Again, the reasoning by which the Editor Of "A.

en- the evident unlawfulness and eriminali-
ty OF his schismalical proceedings, and to
apprlze him, that the indulgence and for
bearance hitherto extended to him in this
matter-and which will not be departed
from in the present instance-has reached
its utmost limit; and pointedly and per-
emptorily to prohibit him from all further
exercise of his Unauthorized and unrecog-
nized ministerial functions; to abstain es-
pecially from all administration ofthe sac
ranents, from baptisms, and every other
schismatic religious rite not permitted by
the laws of this place, and from all endeay-
ors to persuade the inhabitants TO partici-
pate in such unlawful practices, as well
as from all conventicle meetings already
forbidden him, under pain of the severest
measures and penalties, in case the lenily
hitherto and now extended toward him,
should not produce the change ofconduc'
required of him, and that ne should, con
trary to all expectation, continue his IN

We learn from the letters OF passenger
in the Great Western, that public worship
is regularly maintained on the Sabbath on
that Boat. and that the passengers are re-
quired to attend. When no clergyman is
present the captain oficiates himself and
reads sermon. The good effects of this
course are seen both in preventing the
proclamation of that day by games and dis
sipation. and in there being a great re-
straint thrown about the passengers and
crew during the week, so that little if any
vice is practiced.-OberLin ErGn.
