The facts in the caso are substantially these:: Certain members of the Mrssachusetts Medical Bocisty, once “in good standing "1 believe that in the phrase—are considered to have ‘‘fallen ‘from grace” in that they have become con- verta to the faith of Hahnemsnn. This the majority of the Society consider an offense so. grave that thoy aro. unwilling to rofain fn their. ranks the delinguent meiobera ; and, sinca the Ietter refuse to resign, thers has been s strong offort mads to oust them. Tho struggle began more than n year ago; but precisely what steps have beon ‘taken, 'the -publio are not informed, as the desire has been strong on tho part of the majority to koop the procesdings secrot. Tho accused members, on the contrary, have courted publicity; and, through their ef-’ forts, imperfect roports of the proceedings haye, from time to time, . found their way into. th newspapers.

But the steps taken to be ridof them were 5o ill-judged that publio, sentiment genorally condemned; and-the whole fmsiter. was, on some pretext which I have forgotten,: adjourned for a year.

Finally they deny the power of the Commission {o expel, sus- pend, or disfranchise any member of theSodiety, and doclare that the stfempt of the Sociaty to deprive them of their legal rights in it, on' ac- count of differonce of opinion, is in jtsalf “‘con- dufit ‘nnbecoming an thonqn.hln physician.” 3 ere is & very preity quarrel, inly, and & pleasing lpechclep for the pride of 2 A LIBRRAL, ENLIGETENED BOGZON.. - .- 1t is popularly I:gponsd that the Inquisition haa been abolished; that the day has gone by when men, for opinion's sake, d be broaght before s seoret tribunal ‘and subjected - to prins and_penalties for having seen fit, to change their minds.

Tho scrious disagroement which has been foving up for a considerablo time betweon the’ tist Society worshiping in Tremont Temple, and their pastor, the Rev. Dr. Frilton, has at las culminated in the latter's resiguation of his charge. Precisely what -were the “otiginal grounds of differencejthe public are not in- formed; but, from what can be ‘gathered, it would seom that tho trouble began very soon after the sottlement of the pastor. Thé reverend | gentleman’s views as to the KWE‘ management ch-affairs seem to have differed ve widely from those'of some of his people ;- lnz though he was sble, generally, to carry the ma” Jority with him, thera was littl harmony in tho Society. Some time ago, Mr: Fulton went to Europe; .'and, ‘since his retum,’ it -is asserted that he has been still' more in- clined to magnify tho pustoral suthority; and to: carry matters with- s higher han than i5° customary in a denomination whosa churahes aro organized on s * congregational® and democratic basis. Ho is 8aid to greatly ad- mire Mr. Spurgeon, nd possibly ho may have entertained the idea that it was his mission to become i E TIIE SPCROEON OF BOSTON, X Buch & position would suit his talents and abili- tien better, perhaps, than it would a New Englend church and parish.
