He contended that the presbytery at their meeting in 152 not condemn this action, bnt ordered that further action be discontinaed until further orders, He did not propose to criticise the action of the presbytery which was regarded asacensure. This was a mandamus issued by the presbytery, and was summary in ue manner it was issued to the church, and he contended arbitrary. He cited the action of © when similiar cases haa been bich was that the term of 2 of © permanent or limited, as ‘A cae in Philatelphia cided that the limited irches. term ‘That the question might be lett to every ch for settlement. He contended that it was very clear that synods sitting as judicial cour ver and n decided that a limited tenure of of s constitutional. ral Assembly were similar tn their functions to the supreme courts of the United States, ax ‘ould pass upon constitucional questions. ' Ti eneral Assembly is the supreme court of church, and when called upon to pass upon a judicial question, their decision was tinal, aud could not he reversed by an inferior court; in other words, a synod cannot reverse the decision made by the General Assembly. The Presby- tery of Washington had no right or a.thority to | declare that « limited term of service of their elders was unconstitutional. The best interests of this church demand that thie term of office should be limited, ard that the matter shoald be left with the church to determine. This | decisive action had been taken, which compelled this church to wait, and in obedience to this dictatorial mandate they had done so, and their action bad been virtually condemned, and now all they wish is to be set right by this Synod, and are ready to abide its decision. Dr. Chester appeared for the presbytery, ant said he bad been callea upon without prepar tion. He said the qu was whether the mode the New York avenue church had adopted in choosing the rotary plan of eldership was right or wrong, and the presbytery suf- fictent grounds to make the decision they did. He then recited that this body had di that the matter had been irregular, and they sent the case back to the session of the church, when the technical objections were removed, and the question returned to the presby' hen the case was beard ina calm and n spirit, and the decision complained of was made. He «letailed the grounds which influenced the pres- bytery im arriving at this decision, the imain one being that limited term of office was unconstitutional; that in introducing this rotary system the church eS some of the elders who had been e! for life. . ‘Judge Strong interrupted to correct Dr. Ches- ter. and said that a proviso bad been adopted that the consent of elders ao elected should first be obtained before their succe: sors were chosen. Dr. Chester asked if sack action had not beon taken curing the absence of the@ld elders. Judge Strong could not 1oform bim, bat thought it probable that such was the case. Dr. Chester then went on to say tharas he auderstvos the former action of the general as- sembly, « iimited ierm of officers fur the elders bad never Leen recoguized. He thought the action of the appellants thoughout the case had been unnecessary and calentated to disturb the peace and destroy the unity of the charch, and ought not to be sustained, “Hy thought the at- tempt made to introduce the system of Nmitet terms had seriously affected the usefulness of ‘this church and as! that this Synod place its condemnation upon it. He defended the action of the Presbytery and said that among those | who voted against the action of that body were two members of the Duteh Reformed Church. Rey.
