Special Dispateh to The Chicage Tribune, NEw Yonr, March 20.—Tho Council of Gon- grogational churches, which oponed its sossions Inst Tuosday ovening, finishod its work at mid. night of Saturday, aftor two and n balt days® no- oret conforoncos, Tho quostions beforo this body wore considered of gront importanco smong the churches, and it was necossary that the anawer givon to them should bo caroful- 1y and intolligibly rondored. When tho ques- tion rolativg to discipline, which cited the par- tioular caso in Plymouth Church, recoivod thoe attantion of tho Councll, thore was little division concerning tho gonoral answor to bo rendorod, but many folt it would bo wise and fair to 10~ gord tho cage roforred to as STRICTLY EXOEPTIONAT, inosmich a3 Plymouth OChurch professes to regard it 08 such, and still adheres to the funda- montal prineiples of Congrogationalism, there- fore the Council answers to tho inquiring churches that Congrogational custom recognizes 1o such mothod of soparation from the church a8 thoy hiave mentioned, and that thoir romon- stranco wjth Plymouth Chuych was wholly justi- fled by that apparont adoption by tho churah of 80 dangorous s principle. THE LATEST UTTERANCES .of Plymouth Ohurch, howovar, saved it from the advico of tho Council to tho othor churches to withdraw followship, although these utterances wero thought to confliot with the rosolu- tions adopted Des. 6. In o word, the Council fully sustains the action of Dra. Storra aud Budington, but advises them to continno followship with Plymouth Church in hopes that thoy may bo satisfied at tho acceptance by that ohurch of tho principlos it s been supposed to disavow, It is underatood that in tho discussions of the socrot sossion, tho individual cases bofore tho Council wero lost sight of, and the subjeot was largoly upon tho grent question of .

Wo find on the part of Plymouth Charch no definito exprossion eithor of consont or rofusal; yct, inssmuch as Plymouth Church did not distinotly refuse to umito in a roforouce to n Counoll, we cannot butrogret that the complaining churchos did not urge a roquest till arefusal or an evasion should have bocomo unequivoen!. 3 We wero not invited, nor do we tako it upon ouraalves, to ndvise Llymonth Church concern- ingits methods of doaling with ofonders, but woaro invited to adviso theso two ohurches on cortain questions ; therclore wo say distinctly thpt the iden of JMEMBERSUIP 1N A CONGREGATIONAL ORUROIX ia tho idon of a covenunt between individual mom- bers- aud the churoh ; that by virtuo of that covenant a mombor is responsible to the church for Lis ognformity to tho Inw of Christ, and tho churely lfixcs onsiblo for him ; and that this re- sponsibillty doc not ceaso 4Ll tho churol, by somo formal and incorporate act, has declared tho digsolution of tho coyenant. ‘This covennnt moy be brokon by tho member.
