Bomo menabors wished an extension of timo for the exjpression of opinion, but wore over- ruled. THE BEY. DR, FOLTZ #aid that Yhe ouly causo of discord in the Church wau thio mattor which they were disoussing, Ho thought that tho argumont of Mr, Noyes, in the Bwing caso, was unanswerablo, aud he would sustain it. Ho rogrotted to Linve to obsorve that tho argurnont of Prof. Patton did not display tho same surount of toleration, MR, 3. 8, BNADDOCK found fanlt with Prof. Swing for not being joalous of the faith of the Prosbyterian Church, ana thought that the appeal should be sus- wained. . Mr. T. O. Enston safi that he admired Prof. Swing i3 o pulpit orate, bub thought that he was ralhor unsound on doctrinnl points. Mr.J. Grifin enid that he regarded Prof. Bwing as being very orroncous in hig views. KO BEFLECTIONS. Mr. J. M. Lioa donounced the whole proceed- ing a8 being “‘a solemn outrage on justico.” Tho Modorator—You will como to order. Can't allow reflections on thie Court, Mz, Linn said that the procoeding was uncon- stitutional, and ko wishod to bo oxousod from voting. M. Bulzor thought that tho appeal should be aunstained. Mz P, H. Pitkin wns opposed to the npp@l. Ho considered it in bad tasto, and thought thint roligion would not be bonefited by sustaining it. Ho favored brond, ovangolical doctrines. 1t would be much bottor from a Inissionary stand- pomt. Fho Rev. Mr. Calborn said that the vital prin- ciplo of religion contred around Christ erucifiod. Prof, Bwing waa rather indofinite in his stylo. Ho would, howevor, refrain from voting. TIHE R¥. . R, SMITH was in favor of sustaining the appenl. Theyhad rulos of faith and practico, crystallized from the Bible into the * Confession of Faith.” Pootry and eloquenco wero not sufficient for the King- dom of God. _ Faith wns more potont. Mr. Lonis Mitchel briefly sustained the sppenl. T'he Rev, A. C. Smithi thought thero was ox- cellont ground for sustaiving tho appenl, ‘Tho Rev. Thomas Fostor thought that Mr, fwing's thoology was rather obscuro but, ON TIE GROUND OF UHALITY, ‘would voto against tho appeal, Nr. Job. Bnstick avid thnt Prof. Bwing's ut- terances wero gloated over by rationalists and froo-thinkers. Tho Rav, 6. A. Wellos said that he was conscl- entiously convineed that bad rosults to the Church would follow tho further prosecation of tho caso, o would give no opinion on tho warits of tho matter, and begged to bo oxeused from voting. Tho Rev. J. E. Moffat thought that Prof. Bwing misreprosonted, or wisintorpreted, tho eardinal points of Presbylerian faith, The Rtov. A, E, Pock thought thet the intereats of truth and good dootrine requircd that tho ap- poal shiould bo suatained. , Tho Rev, W. C. McDowdall said that Prof. Bwing's sermons were of o character that NEEDED COMMENTAIIES, Thoy conld not really bo coneidered commenta- ricson tho Bible, o would sustain the first chargo. ‘Tho Rev. Mr. Lubecl snid that bis orlho- doxy had nover beon questioned, but ho wag op- posed to going any further in tho mattor. It would do no (,'c\ml. The Rev. L', F, Jeesop was convincod that tha trial was unconntitutional and not, sauotioned by anything Iaid down in the Book of ‘Disciplino, Tho lov. C. B, Briacoll said that Mr. Swing's .i“ulfdaf’ was too mystical for anybody to un- evntand. Tha Tev. Mr, Cruikehank vehomently sustaine odl the uppeal, 4 ‘tho Rev, Mr. Foltz nsked whethor ho could stato his ronsons for not voting when the roll was eadled, ‘Iho Maderator—Youn will have an oppurl.u.nuy. A member called for tho vote by *yens™ and “nayn," aud it waa 8o ordered. ‘Whon the name of DR, FOLTZ was called, he took occasion to say that he en- tiroly dissoutod from the procoedings in rogard tothe trinl. I1lo had attompted to give soy- eral good reasous why he would not voto to sus- tain the nppoul, but hud boen much interrupted and aid upon tho table, until L way sore all ovor, [Luughtor,] The speakor was proceed- ing rathor conucally to ox{nmuu his dissont, when ha was again called to order, Ilo managod to sny, however, thnt ho considerod tho argumont of Mr, Noyes goad and conclusivo.
