Tie Bishop, il would seem, had 20 mind TO NEE.
MI Poole on TIE point Of TIE extent to which the
practice Of confession and abso,ution was sarc
tored or allowed by the prayer. book, and whether
orrotMr Poole had gone bey old that limit; so he cut

eert!ena an TO appear on certain day and show

ground that, admitting females 70 confession, he
"aedre.sed questions 10 them calculated to bring

Poole sga.n asked . spec6 cation Of the charges
AGAR. him, TO be confronted by wituesses and to
hsye formal trial The Bishop only replied BY
r.voking his Ecente, suggesting, however, that he
had tie right Of appeal to the AIchb.shop. II
would appear indeed that the poor Bishop was s!
the same time harassed BY counter correspond
ence on the part Of the Rev. and Hon. Mr. Barring,
chidirg lis delay ard urging him to act. That gen.

Lord Stafte,bury, at which he read tie afday;ts,
too indecent in parts to bear publication, furnished
the Bishop, and gave il to he understood that Mr.
Poole had been removed on the strength Of their
testimcny.
This of course, drew out dens's and protesta-
tons from the other side; smorg the rest, an
address TO TIE Bishop, from meeting of oommun-
carts of the Church of st. Barrabss, in reply to
which the Bishop stated that although he could
not comply with their request to re'nstate Mr.
Poole, he fully believed him to be conscientious
ard upright man, but that be had greatly erred in
Judgment, and that his practice with the best in.
tenticns, bad been very dangerous to the Church.
The appeal to the Archbishop did not avail. He
placed his COZ frmaton Of the revocation Of Mr.
Poces license on the ground that BY his statements
lie had been in the practice of conductog system Of
private confession and absolution among his people,
which TIE Bishop decided was not authorized
by the Church Of England and was calculated
to bring scandal on it-a view in whi,h the
Archbishop expressed his concurrence. The
affair, however is not ye! ended. Various
Aw,uits are threatened, and great meet

complaint that no peer could be got to preside
