We much fear, however, that unlees more decisive stepz are taken, the police will be foiled. It waa the merest farce to bind over Heeran in £50, ard two securities in £25 each, to Kerp the peace for #ix months.

Mr. Cuanras R Banvry seconded the resolutions, and stated his reseons for objecting to the mission to Great Britain. Dr. Bai. was the next speaker. He was decidedly op- pored to the practive of soliciting foreign aid for the pur- pose of supporting an anti-slavery cbur sh in this city. Mr. WARREN said he was inclined to look with disfavor on the efforts of some of the members of the church in reference to the foreign mission, if he might be allowed 80 to call it, withont reference to trustees of the church, but he did believe, although thetr efforts had not es yet produced any portant results, no one had said it was wrorg or wicked, and the influence exer- cised by those members who hold the foreign funds hed not, be thought, been very great. Their error bad been ‘ap error of judgment and too great an affection for the churoh, and perbape ho might be slowed to say, for the pastor;end wouid like to know whether the passing of these resolutions would bave any effect on their next weekly prayer meeting, or in the church next Sunday. Mr. Warren then submitted the following mble and rerolauons a8 substitutes for thore offered by Mr. Smith: Whereas, Messrs. Hartt, Fairbanks, Ferris and Gilbert members of the Church of tbe Puritacs who originated and antborized the appeal to British Christians for pecu- viary aid are now end al have been willing to assumo and bear the legitimat ibilttics consequent upon said 1; aod whereas such efforts to probide fun¢s for objects as have been avowed by these brethren, jifestly, not an undue iuterference with any rights or prerogatives of the Trustees of the Socioty, 7 are no more objectianable ag creating a monetary wer, dangerous to the independence of the church ani tociety, tban the efforte of the and offers to raise funcs outsice the copgre; y to liquidate debts, which once and again have threatened se- rious damage to the society, nor than the neble offer which our Jate treasurer, Charles Aber- nethy, Eeq., 8 urderstood to have once made, that he would, it neccesary, sustain the church ontircly from hie own private fortune; and Resolved, That there is row no occasion for this 90- ciety to take any action whatever relative to said appeal for pecuniary aid, nor any ive to any funds that mey have been, or that may yet be, received in "neaok ved That in ad the fore ible and ‘esolve loptin, regoing preamble an rerolutions, we make no declaration as to the wisdom of that appeal, but Jeave that responsivijity entiroly with thore A whem it bas been voluntarily assumed. Mr. Grinerr then read a number of statements, affl- davits he called them, to prove that certain members of the congregation bad been conspiring not only for the re- moyal of Dr. Cheever, but had been ing false and meiicious reports about certain membere of the Church of the Puritane, Mr. Arerxerny gaid as bis name had been mentioned by Mr. Gilbert, he was, he supposed, on trial. He had hcord that some one had eaid they belleved he (Mr. Aber- ncthy) bad sai’, about three years ago, he would sup- port Dr. Cheever and the Cburch of the Paritans even if it cost the whole of his private fortune; that ¢fd not look very much like conspiracy. Then he had teid sometbirg about Dr. Cheever golpg to Borton; it was well kncwn Rorten was a very good place to live in, and be thought Dr. Cheever might be worse off than preaching {a a fine church in the good city of Bestop. ¥r. D. Farsnanxs seid that whatever might be tho fato of the reeolutions, he should not allow st to disturb his Christian equanimity, De did not intend to speak that evening, had not bis name been mentioned in refer- evce to the forcign mission. Mr. Fairbanks then gave a Ftatoment of bis efforts in behalf of the church, and said be bad put bis hand to geome paper authorizing a lady to collect money in Englend; but there was go lng at the back of the going to England. He said they had a pertect right to act as they had done, and had yetto learn that be must take a yard stick to find out how many feet he rovet goto find a Christian. He would collect money from any.person who was willing to contribute to support the preaching of a full and free gospel. He bsd a perfect right to get money where, when and how he pleazed, he would eet at deflant ohorch, he would fet at deflance the trustees, and he would set at defiance apy church on the face of God’s earth to prevent her from coliceting moncy for the support of the church, and spend- sng it how be pleased. ir.
