that In consequence of bis explanation she re-
monstrance against Dr. Rainsford wonld be with
drawn. 1t was decided, however, some days ago,
by the ministers who drew up the paper, that it
would be more effective if it were made public
The protest when sent out was marked Conf
dental and private, and was taken from church
to church. 4 number of wel.-knOwn ministers
in this city, however, did not see the remonstrance
at all. Although it is signed by l06 clergymen
and SO laymen, it will be noticed that, with the
exception of the Rev DR.. Dix the Rev. DR..
Satterlee, Professor Richey, Dean Hoffman and
lew other well-known men, the influential clergy
men of this city have not attached their names
TO the remonstrance. The names Of

are uncertain, however, as to the effect OF the
