What the Church Papers Say about it.
We find IN the Southern Churchman Of
January 22d, the following remarks in re-
gard 10 Mr.. LArANE's resignation:
1t grieves US much, to learn that the
Rev. j, A. Latane, rector OF st. Matthew's
Church, Wheeling, has resigned the
ministry OF the Protestant Episcopal
Church. He will publish his reasons dur.
ing this week. In the meantime, we may
remark, he says he Is not able to continue
his ministry by reason Of the fearful er.
rors that are tolerated in the Church. To
say all we feel, about the worth Of Mr..
Latane; or tell all our sorrow at his leav-
ing the church Of his fathers for many
generations, would not be expedient."
The "KpiSeopalian" Of the 2lst, publish.
ed in Philadelphia, makes the following
remarks:
"We are informed that the Rev. James
A. Latane has resigned St. Matthew's
Church, Wheeling, W. Va, and also his
ministry In our Church, and intends to
join the Reformed Episcopal Church as
organized by Bishop Oummins and bis as.

reasons for this step, appears In the
