CASES IN THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND. London Times. : Epinpvaa, Oct. 19.—The Established Church of Scotland has been during recent years re- markably free from cases of heresy. For some years past the Free Church has been afilicted and perplexed with the case of Prof. Hobert- fon Smith, and the United Presbyterian Church has-had ber troubles with Messrs. McCrae and Ferguson, but all that ‘time the Established Church bas bad peace within her borders, It was well known that that enviable state’ was by no means due to-lnck of heretics, or of those who would have been deemed heretics in the other churches, but to the desire of the Jeaders of the Church that it should maintain a broad and comprehensive character, as a National Church ought to do. At Inst, how- ever, the reign of peace has been brought to an end, and tho Established -Church is threatcned with a heresy hunt of the most exciting kind, and on a scale to which no other Church has yet offéred a parallel. Early in the present year there was published avolume ended*Scotch Sermons." The re- puted editor of the volume.is the Rev. Prof. Knight, of St. Andrew's University, who under- went & certain amount of persecution some Years agointhe Free Church,ang who'conse- quently left that body and joined the Church of Scotland. The volume contains twenty-three sermons by thirteen authors, who include the chief representativesof the Broad-Churoh School of Scottish Theology, Principal Cuird, Dr. Story, Dr. Cunningham, and Mr. W.L. McFarlan. In his preface, the editor says that the volume is. ‘tho work of ‘thosé whose>hope forthe future ies “notin alterations of ecclesiastical organiza- tion, but in a. profounder apprehension of the essential ideas of. Christianity; and especially in_ the growth, within’ the Churen, of such a method of presenting them xs shall snow that they are equally adupted to the necdsof humhn- jarmony with the results of critical and sclentitio research.” Every one knows what to expect in a book the spirit and object of which are thus plainly announced. Its contents do not belle -this genera! description of them. They abound with the most advanced views of the critical school, expressed in the most un- compromising way. Throughout, the writers Adopt » spiritual a8 opposed to a ‘literal inter- pretation of the Scriptures. They are Christian idealists who seek to break down the traditional Calvinism ofthe orthodox. Two features of the work tend to increase -its influence with men of thought and culture—its eloquent and fervid tone, and its excellent literary form.” ~ ‘The book’ attracted attention outside of the Church before any sign of dissatisfaction or alarm wes given within it, The Nonconformists ut their May incetings asked, witb indignation, whether the theology taught in these sermons was the kind of theology on which the funds of the nation were spent.: ‘The question was war- ranted by the stutement of the editor in his breface, that the tenching of the volume is of a style “which increasingly prevails among the clergy of the Scottish Churc! His explana- tion that it did not claim to represent the full extent of that teaching, but only **to indicate a Tendency, and to show the direction in which Thougdt fs moving.” made matters worse in their eyes, and not better. -The pious Liberatiouists were horror-stricken with the effrontery of these bousts, and they derived from the Church itself a new wer to be used nguinst tt. If these, they said, were the doctrines taught within the Established Church, disestablishment was more than ever necessary in order to soothe their violated consciences. In the meantime the leuders of the Established Church showed great unwillingness to move in the mutter, An overture begging the General Assembly to take the volume and the conduct of its authors into consideration was sent in; but the Committee on Overtures re- fused,to transmit jt to the Assembly, on the ground that it contained statements reflecting ou the character of certain ministers of the Church. This decision exusperated the Non- couformists stilf more. On the following day the discstablishment debate took place in the Free Cbureh Aseombir. and the desire of the Nationut Chureh to tolerate heresy was promi- nently referred to in proof of its deadness in the faith. On the part of some of the leaders of the Church, this unwillingness to ralge discussiun on Poluts of doctrine was undoubtedly due to a genuine desire for toleration, if not to sympathy with the particular views enunciated. In the case of others, however, it could be ascribed only to a wholesome dread of the consequences: to the Church of raising dissensions within it at & time when it 1s mportant that jt should appear united and strong. The difficulties of the case were increased by the circumstance that the vol- ume was the production not of a single author, but of « league. and that If one of the authors ; Were prosecuted the Church might be compelled ~ to take proceedings against the greater number Of the other nwelve, sess When the General Assembly, or its Com#filttee, refused to take up the case against the authors of “ Scotch Sermons,” it was tuld chat the mat- ter would not be allowed to rest. but that it would bé brought up by wine other means. The Presbyterian form of guvernment affords great facilities for Instituting such proceedings. It is . competent for any co-Presbyter of any of the authors of these Sermonsto move his Presbytery. take up the case. ‘This has now been done in z bytery of Glasgow, tho particular clor- fan attacked beiny the Rev. William Leckie, McFarian, of Lenzie, formerly of Cuputr, in Fife: Mr. MeFarlan js the author of two sermons in in ‘the yolume,—the one on * Authority.” the ether on “The Things Which Cannot BeSbaken.” The former sermon is an argument auminss the intallivility of the Scriptures. The‘anthor holds that “the Scriptures are authoritative only in ao far as they are true,” and only iu * euch por: tons of them as xwaken a response in thuse in whom reuson, and conscience, the facuttics Ly which alone truth can be discerned, have bee duly developed.” He agrees, “in the muin,” with the conclusions of those who hold that “they cannot be certain that nll the words in the Gospeis attributed Ww Christ und His Aposties were really tho words they, spoke. undiluted, undistorted, une: ral Neither can they be absofutely sure that the miracles ascribed to them were actialiy wrought by them.” While thus throwing over the whole doctrine of plenary Inspiration and verbal infallibility, Mr. McFarlan yet finds in the Bible ‘‘a revelation of ivine trutbs.”*1n the second of his sermons, Sr. MeFurlan expresses his substantial agreement with those who hold that the -dogmus of schol- ustic theology must be abandoned or greatly modified; more particularily these aogmas: The descenl of Man from the Adam of Genesis: the Full of Adam; the imputation of bis guilt to bis posterity; the “arithmetical atonement: through Christ; the doctrine of election, and ‘tbat of the eternal punishment of the unregen- trate. ‘The things that cannot be shaken are the verity that “righteousness is bicssedness;”* the truth that there is a Divine Being: that He Secks to make us sharers in His righteousness and Hie blessedness; and that in the cravings of the soul for communion with that power with- out it there is the pledge of its immortality. ‘The Presbytery met on Tacradzy, for the seo- -noteworthy that the amendment ond time, to consider the case. There were six Motions ou the subject before the house. Two of these motions bear an aspect more or leas bostily to Sir, McFarlun—che one asking for 2: committee to confer with nim, with a view to ulterior proceedings; the otber decliring that his statements contradict the Standards, und Utreateniug bin with a Hbel if he refuse to re- ruvide ways of escape for him from his. pres- ent position, and to Tnake further proceedings unnecessary.

In tbe cunrse of the d ion on Thursday one of the speakers suid that it was imposbiblo’ for those. who thought wito him to continue longer in the sume Church with the authors of these sermons; another described Mr. McFurlan as ‘ta btind leader of the blind“: a third characterized the sermons xs “false to philosophy, false to bis- tory, false to theology, and filse to Sempture "3 while a fourth declared that unless they took in the instter “the uation would: inter~ me liberal sentiments, howe were Uitered.

The terms of Dr. Jumieson’s motion are that the Presbytery “remit the eermons to n committee, with in- structions to. confer with Mr. MeFarhin,on the subject, and to report on an eurly date which was finally rejected (Mr. J.

New York Tribune, Nor. 9. Wandering down the East River front, with its tall, dingy warehouses on one side and the long, hedge-like row of bristling masts ou the other, 2 Tribune reporter Sunday afternoon was observ- ing the many types of humanity tobe seenalong. that edge of the city. ‘The nir was céol-and bracing, the sun was shining brightly, and the ‘people Were out in the strects enjoying the In- dian summer.

Walking down South street, just oppnsit the Roosevelt Street Ferry, in front of a big wares house, the reporter saw a lurge crowd assembied around 2 fine-looking, portly man with silvery; hair, who Was earnestly addressing them. He: talked in a loud tone, using phitn, homely language that the poorest, most Siliternte of the unkempt crowd ‘could ‘clearly understand. ‘There was nothing high-own about the preach ing. there were no dogmas brought up or a: suiled, and there were no Greek or Latin quota- tions to be explained. ‘The audience was of the humblest cluss: out at the knees and elbows, with buttered hats und wornout shoes. There were women 2s well us men in the crowd, and not a few little ebildren ‘were among the grown people. - All kept excel- Jent order, ‘Some, who came appnrently with the intention ot interrupting or insulting the speaker, soon hushed their voices, dropped their plans banterings, and became quict listeners, man bad power over the crowd. and he knew it and exercised it. The -serinon be preached was one to encourage men who ure at the bottom. ‘The simple, tenderly-spoken words were such as were adapted to raise the poor listener above himself; to excite in him an um- Lition to better his condition; to be somebody; to drop his vices and put virtues in their place: to stop despairing and begin to hope: to. cease quarreling with one another, and to cultivate Kindness, forbearance, und charity instead. ut the meeting was not all sermon. A band- some little wagon wis brought up, with a tall coffee-urn and a large hamper of bread.

In tke more general sense the name includes the Jews and Mobam- medans, as well ug those Christians who deny the doctriue of the Trinity, and in this sense also there have been Unitarians from the earli; est period of ecclesiastical history. +4 Until the méddle of the second century therd seeing to bave -beon no controversy upon tha subject of tho’Trinity, but from that time to the end of the third century there. arose a succes-, sion of eminent’ teuchors ‘who maintuined against the ecclesiastical doctrine of the Logos, the undivided, unity,—or, ag they expressed it, the Monurchy.gr God, From their use of this word they ure known ‘in ceclesitstic history ag Monercumns.’ There are generally understood to bave been ¢lasses of thein,—thuse who’ taught that “Christ was God in suck a sense tbat. .it: was the Futher .who became. umian- and suffered, and who this“account. called Putripassi-. sand, secondly, thse who beld that Christ "wis in naturea meréman, other prophets by the sup vine wisdom, aud Who, therefore, corresponded: more nearly with the modern Unitarians.

In the fourth century a private discussion occurred between Arius, a presbyter of Alexti dria, and Bishopof Alexander, the latter main- taining the essential equality of the Son and the Father, and the ‘former throwime on the Bishop the reprouch of Sabellianism, and asserting that there was u time when the Son was not,— thus destroying ‘thé.

PREPARING POR HIS RECEPTION. It is yet uncertain just what day Archbishop Feehan will arrive bere, but it is thought that a letter will ve recelved. from him, possibly to- day or to-morrow, Auforming tho local ecclesi- exact ‘time of his Qhio street; will be placed at his disposul 83 soon. as vacated by ite present,tenants and placed in proper condition for his reception. The moving business begun yesterday, and the prepurations for turning it over to‘its new occupant will Probably be completed in a few days— 1 not by the time of his arrival, then quite shortly thereafter. The preparations for the celebration one week from to-dity of tha consecration uf the First Roman Catholic Arch- bishop of Chicago at the’ Cathedral of the Holy Name aro going forward with n devotion to de- tails which is itgelf an assuranee that the cere- monies will be conducted with the pomp and grandeur commensuraté witb thelr importance. The Cathedral choir, 1s has been” previously stated, will be largely augmented for the occa- sion, and tho noble edifice will witness 4 congre- gation of Bishops and clergy, together with rep- resentatives froin virions societies, such ts bis seldom been gathered together in any city in the west, inciuding the 200 priests of this diocese, the Catholic sovictics of Chicago. the two Suffra- gin Bishops of the new See,—Bnites, of Alton, and Spalding, of Peoria,—who will ussist in the coremonies; Bishop Ryan, of St. Louis, who 13 expected to preach the sermon; Bishop Hogan, of St. Joseph; Bishop Dwenger, of Fort Wayne: ‘hop O Conner, of Orhabu: Bishop Ireland, of St. Paul; and Bishop Gilmour, of Cleveland. The service for this auspicious occasion ts that which is properly known as the order for the reception of a prelate. It fs ingugurated by & procession of the elerzy to the door of the church, where thor receive the Anchbishop and conduct him to the altar. Thé principal of the clergy recites tho formal prayers known us those for the reception of a Bishop, after whicn the distinguished prelate pro- eveds to his throne,: aud is invested With the pallium pectoral cross and crozier.

The pulllum isa consecrated garwdnt which the Pope sends to those elevated to the Archieptscopil rank, and, though {ts receipt is not essential to the ceremony of Investiture, its formal presenta- tion is n divnitied feature of the service. A spe- cial messeayer Is always Intrusted with the care of its delivery, and it Is hoped that in the pres- ut case the sucrcd robe may arrivo in time for the installution. Its furm fs that of a scarf composed of white wool and embroidered with crosses, and it 13 sent hy the Pope ust mark of honor to Patriarchs, Metropolitans, and Bishops. The pectoral cross ditfers from that of x Bishop in that it bas two single crosses in place of a doublecross. ‘The fuvestiture having been com- pleted, the Archbishop proceeds with the cele- bration of Pontitieal High Mass. which is fol- lowed by the sermon of the duy, The entire services will be uf that grasd and inspirin, character which will doubtless fill the Ca thedra! tu overtiowing and mark the yccusion as one long to be remembered in the ecclesiastical annals of Chicago, dn nnawer to Inquiries from. the Irish-Ameri- ean.Couneil, a body composed of delegates from the socicties in the various purishes of this city, us to whethor or not there would be agy public demonstration on the ocension of the arrival of Arehbiahon. Feehan, the following wag sent by the Rev. D. J. Riordan, Chancellor of the Dio- eese: There will be no public demonstration on the eccasion of Archbishop Fechan’s arrival. Te will enter the city privately, and his first ap- pearmnce in public will be the Sunday following bis arrival. He will here next week or the week after. The societies are 80 numerous that {t would be impossible to reserve places for them in the Cathedral on the day of installation, thourh many of the mem- bers wilt no doubt avail themselves of the op- portunity to be present. Hut nothing in the shapo of a processivun or public parade {s. con- tempiited in connection with the Archbishop's arrival or inetallation. On some other oveasion tho socicties will be uble to meet the Archhishup ina body, and he will be surprised and pleased tosee somuny good and excellent soctuties in this city, entirely devoted to the Church, and so respectful to their ecclesiastical superiors. GENERAL NOTES. ‘The Episcopal Genéral Convention, lately in session in New York, cost $20,000, Patent safety-brakes" have been plad&d on the car of Juggernaut by the ordersof the English magistrate, ‘The First Baptist’ Church in: Brooklyn, N. Y., has raised its income from. $350) per annum under the pew-renting system to $10,000 under the envelop plan. | Apropos of the discussion of the question ‘of a Preabyterian liturgy at_ the Council in Ppiladel- hin, it fs stated that’ tho English Presbyterian Synod of 1ssLwill most hkely be asked'to sanc- ion the optional use of a litargy, tugether with forms for dispensing Maptiam gud’ the Lord's Supper, and tor. conducting marriages and burials. An overture ori the sdbject, it is anid, will be sént up. rt A gentleman who. employsn great number of hands in # manufactory in she west of Scotland, in order to encourage ‘big: work-people inn duc. attendunce at church gn fast-day, told them that if they. went to church they would receive their wages for that duy in the same manner as Amoroa if they hud been at work, upon which a deputa- i ee tion was appointed to acquaint their employer that “*{f he would pay them for over hours they would attend likewise at the Methodist chapel in the evening.” For the tirst time in the history of the Ohio Penitentiary, says the Catholic Columbian, high Mass was celebrated in that institution by tue Catholic Chaplain, Father Clurke, lust Sunday, bestuning ui 7:3)’ o'clock. A eboir, composed principuily of members of ‘tho excellent cboir of St. Patrick's Church, rendered Peter's mnssin Din very excellent style. Tho: prisoners wero taken by surprise, but deeply felt the rare pleusure of assisting at a high mass. Many eyes were suffused with tears as the well-known words of the Kyrie, Gloriu; Credo, ete., were eung, a8 they undoubtedly ‘brought to mind the scenes of other diys when, free and innocent, they assisted at the bigh tuss in their own par- ish churches, Those who can attend high mass on Sundays and bolydays, und yot neglect it, have only to iinugine themscives in the places of these prisoners, who are thug deprived of ‘that blessing through a great neglect of it in curly days. There are in the employ of the Domestic Mis- siobury Vomimitteo of the Protestant Episcopal Church 38 wissionaries, of whoin ten are Bish- ops and 313 wre clergymen. There are forty-six imissionnries ut work among tho colored peopte and forty-nine among the Tgiliaus.. The receipts of the Bourd of Munagers Wor the year were $180,712.89, and tho cost of administration hus been but 64-10 per cent, or, adding the disburse- ment of funds tor tho Foreign Committee and on publication account, the perceutuge 1s Te- duced to 1-10, which ig a. very satisfactory showing. Tho Women’s Auxilixry have sent out tothe missionaries and their families 669 boxes of clothing and other articles, estimated to be worth $53,002.47, and thus the women of the eburch bave been helpmec ta indeed. The received in legacies during the year , and there ure hold for the com- tité and stocks valued, at pnr, at ionaries Sep t. 1 soine $3,00J more thin the smount in the trens- ury. Tho Abbeyville (S. C.) Afedium draws the fol- Jowing curious picture of the effect of the lato cilmpuign excitement upon the best sections of the community: * Profane swearing is on the increase in this section. We have particularly observed this since the beginning of the campaign. Thore fs no renson why this should be the case, for if any vice is uscluss and without, excuse it is that of Diasphemy. Whisky will muke a man feel good, and it grutifes x taste. Some momentury pleas- ure may be derived from a drink. and in cases of sickness there may be some medicinal vir- tues in alcohol. The ‘pistul may be of use in self-defense, and there may be some pride and gratiication in 2 shooting match. Pistols and whisky may be of use in exceptional cases, but Profane swearing is utterly without any value. it notcure a man of sickness, and has no icinal virtues, ‘he Worst feature about thia evil is that the habit is becoming popular with church members, and it brings reprouch upon religion. ‘Cho other day we beard several men who stand well in the ebureh ripple out all kinds of oaths. They pro- faned the nume of God without scruple, and their blasphemy was so frequent and’ pro- nounced us to muke the worldly-minded shud- der, The vice is not confined to_any particular denominution; Buptists, Methodiata, Prespyte- rinus, Episcopaliuns, and Seceders seem to bave fo tten all their profession, and huve been ring like euilors tor the [ust month or go. It is sintuland disgraceful, and every man of then should be turned out of church, The habit fs hhuneeat to civilization, morality, decency, and Christhwity.’* PERSONAL. Miss Annie L. Shaw was lately ordained in Tarrytown by tho New York Methodist Conter- ence, after considerable discussion. Tho Rev. Dr. Daniel Rend, pastor of the First Baptist Courch, Brooklyn, N. ¥., has determined to offer his resignation. He will probably accept 8 call to Bloomington, IL The Rev. Stephen fH. Tyng, Sr., of New York, now In bis Sist year, enjora a pension of $5,000 a. yeur from St. George's Protestant Episcopal Chureb, over which he was thirty-five years the pastor. The late Lord Clifford, a Roman-Catholic Peer, Provided jin his will that should bis younger sons, to whom: he loft $150,000, take holy orders their portions are to be reduced to $25.00. In ifke munner the portions of his daughters are to be reduced from 369,00) _to $12.50 should they become nuns, Another Roman Catholic gentle man of bigh positon made a similar provision a eur or two ugo. In 1712 Mr. Whiston, an eccentric Millenarian divine aud ustrouomer, who served as deputy to Sir Isaac Newton when Professor of Mathe- matics at Cumbridge, predicted that a comet would appear at noon on Wednesday, Oct. 14, and that the world would be destroyed by fire on the following Friday, ‘The comet cane, and had Qn extritordinary effect. More than a hundred ¢lergymen were reported ty have waited on the prituate on the Wednesday afternoon to request that proper prayers might be propared, while thousands of nen who believed that the end of world was coming married on the Thursday the women with whom they bad been living. Many people embarked on ‘the water, thinking that they would be stfer when the fire came, and Sir Gilbert Heathoote, Chief Direotor of the Bank of England, issued instructions to tho fire oft- cers to keep a sharp lookout on the Bank of En- xlond,.on which there was a prodigious rui presumably by those who thought that, albeit they brought nothing into the world, they might be able tu take something out. The Captain of Dutch ship in the ‘Thames threw all bis powder Into the river, Whiston is only remembered now by bis translation ut Josephus. Tho new President of the Union Theological Seminary, the Rev. Dr. Roswell Dwight Hiteh- cock. has been for the last twenty-tive years the incumbent of the Washburn Chair of Church History in that institution. He is a native of Eust Machlus, Me., where he was born Aug. 15, 1817. He entered the Suphomore Class of Am- berst College, and was graduated there in 1836, Like many other New-England students of theology, he did uut at once enter a theological seminury, but passed # year or more in teuching, pursuing atthe same thae Biblical and other studies under private tulnon. He was astudent at Andover Thoological Seminary in 188, and from 189 to 1812 served ag tutor in Amherst College, of which he became a ‘Trustee in 1989.
