INFANT BaPTIsM-A PROTEST AGAINST EUCHAR-
,sr,c ApoRAToX-A COMMISSION FOR THE En-
ANIMATION AND REVISION OF THE RUBRICs.
Saturday, the sixteenth day of the session of the
General Episcopal Convention, was passed in the
consideration of much miscellaneous business. IL
was the last day allowed for the introduction OF new
business. Resolutions denouncing Eucharistic Ad-
oratou, and asking for commission to define rules
for the guidance of the Church, and canon ior
rubrical revision, were among the propositions
The division of the diocese of Texas was left un-
settled after long debate. An important report on
religious reform abroad was presented. An altera-
ton was proposed in the rubrics of the office OF
infant baptism. An attempt was made to shorten
the coming discussion of Ritualism, with only par
tial success The question of leaving the confrma-
tion of bishops entirely with the standing diocesan
committees was debated. The Convention will
meet to-day at a. ~, and at noon will take up the
subject Of Ritualism.
