10 CONGREGATIONALISM. Third Day’s Proceedings of the Congregational Council. — THE SAINTS IN SECRET SESSION. “on, {do hope they will pot do anything in secres!’” said a fair young Brooklynite to her equaily preity companion as they entered on Thursday morning, we third day of the Vouncil, the open door of the Clinton avenue Congrega- tuonai church, “I want to hear and see every- thing.” And without intending at all so to do the young lady expressed the earnest desire of all in- Jelugent ana church going peopie of Brooklyn and | of New York and the rest of the country. SECRET SESSIONS are in themselves suspicious and dangerous, especially when their ob) ters which have been trampeted to the world; ana, above all things, secret sessions of e& parte coun- cus are open to grave ovjections. But the young dy above alluded W was destined to disappoimt- ment, lor before the hour of noou the Cougrega- taonal Councti of 1874 nad determined to go into ‘wecret session,” and woman’s curiosity was varied, ‘The early portion of yesterday's morning ses- tion Was occupied by a series of cross-question- ob 18 to investigate mat- | ingy of Rey. Drs, Budington and Storrs by mem- | bers of of almost equally the Counc and by a s CROSS ANSWERS on the part of the two reverend prosecutors. The majority of these questions were evidently asked by personal Iriends of Mr. Beecher, and were in- spired by frlendship for that gentleman by sym- pathy Jor Plymouth church, This SYMPATHY POR BEECHER became annoying to those parties In antagonism with that gentleman, and, finally wearied with being badgerea by question after question, the Kev. Dr. Storrs made along and elavorate speech, in which he claimed to completely cover all possible points, His audience seemed to differ with the Jearned Doctor, however, ior, afver his speech was conciuded, certain members of the Council still ‘conunued to ask question aiter question concern: ing the history of the early stages of the Coun- cil, whether every possible step bad been taken to concihate Plymouth church, and so on. Finally, it was moved that the Counctl go into wecret session. This motion was opposed by the Rev, ©. R. Everest, pastor of the Puritan chureh ef Brooklyn. This gentleman is a compafatively young man, but quick, energetic, shrewd, thougnt- Jui, ana his motion for publicity attracted great attention. But the Moderator accided that public Mvestigations were opposed wo Congregational Practice, as represented in its councils, and Mr. Everest’s motion was not even acted upon, In other words, it has been determined by the Council that a PRIVATE TRIAL ON A PUBLIC CHARGE ds in accordance with the spirit and the policy of Congregaticnulism. This decision of the Modera tor was, of course, respectiuily acquiesced in, but Many of the members of the Council made no secret of thetr opinion as to the injudictous nature Of the proceeding. Mr. McParland, a prominent jay delegate, although defending the action of the Coun- cil as technically proper, and, in point of red tape Foutine, perfectly oficial and correct, said openly ‘that it wouid have been infimitely better for the @ake 0! all parties concerned if the proceedings Bad cuded as they had begun, in public. Others, however, warmly delended the wisdom oF secrecy, amd compared the whole proceeding as strictly ‘analagous to A TRIAL BY JURY. “The jury,” said an eminent divine to tne HERALD reporter, “hears the evidence before it in public, but decides upon it in private. The Coun- ‘cil having, like a jury, heard the public eviaenci Mow like a jury claims the right to retire tor its -privaie deliberations. No new evidence will be ‘taken in the secret session. None of their committees attend it either. ‘that, after all, we simply do in this Church Council @8 any other council not in a chureh would do.” As @ Mere matter of fact, the numerical majority ef the Council seemed to be in favor 0! a secret ses- mon, while the intelectual majority was against it. ‘The audience was certainly opposed to it, and, if ‘the sentiments expressed on the streets of’ Brook- M are apy index thereof, the public opinion of rooklyn Was in favor oi tue publicity that has been denied. Stenographers and reporters were, of course, speedily excluded from the “secret bes- sion” of the Couucil. The sexton of the church rendered himse}f especially ofMicious in this con- nection, and fnaily proposed shutting up the church and locking out everybody who Was nota qmember of the Council, ‘This “suggestion was adopted, and a miscellaneous crowd, inciuding weveral jadies, Was unceremoniously shown out milo the street. The ladies protested even more loudly and em- ly than the reporters, out the sexton yas amexorable. When Shakespeare wrote of “Man aressed in a little brief authority,’’ etc, he must have had a propletic vision of THAT SEXTON. Even under the charge of “that sexton” some of the members o. the Conucil seemed to be haunted by the dread of eaves droppers and looked sus- \Piciously about them on every side, while otner Members waiked to and fro under a weight of mystery, absolutely vursting with importance, One curious incident deserves to be noted. It was publicly stated to the HERALD representative by a gentleman who claimed to bea member of the Council. that it was reported that several clergy- men in the “secret sessions” up stairs were acting as CLERICAL JOURNALISTS, im other words, € taking notes of what tran- spired in “the secret session.” with a view to pub- ishing the particulars in Various provincial news- Papers ior Which they were acung as amateur correspondents. It was also stated that several correspondents of so-styled ligious new: Papers” were admitted into the ‘secret session. Another curtous incident is worth passing men- thon. A very handsome, elegantly dressed youn, lady rendered herself quite conspicuous among ti delegates in the carly part of yesterday’s session, COUstity “advocate tor dear Mr. , as she announced herself, She was very vivacious in her tunner, e gestures and voluble am her tai FAIR ADVOCAT! attracted more attention than she was entitled to, ag there Was not tae leust necessity in the world Altogether, this Those who are, as it were, the plainti’s in this case, Rev.

Prayers were offered by Dre. Chapin, H. M. Storrs, Adams, Barker and W. M. Taylor, These prayers, interspersed with hyimos, Occupied the half hour easily. As the mecting closed promptly at hali-past nine o’clock the members of the Council and friends began to he unoccupied seats in the gallery and body of the house. The minuces were read and approved. A resolu- tion, which Was pending on Wednesday evening, callung lor seeret sessions of the Council, was taken Up, Dat as it ebtaimed no second and was opposed by members it was delerred. ‘The inviting pastors and church comimittees, by the action of the Council on Wednesday evening, were permitcea yesterday to supplement their previous statements by remarks if they thought proper. They were aiso to submit to be catechized by the Council. WAKDING THE BLOW FROM PLYMOUTH. Dr. Brows, of Newark, N. J.. asked Mf it was in order tor him t offer & resolution bearing on the question, aud, being answered im the affirmative, he Was enforcing itS merits vy an address, when the reading o! the resolution was called for, Ib was as 10ll0Wws: 1 as this Council is in potnt of x styled, an ex-parte Council, and as ly called, that theretore tor it tw give rightly be construed as adverse to the Piymeouth chureh would be to violate the very prin- | caoles of Congrezauonalismy which we are here convened | to vindiwate, | ‘The resointion thus read was found to bear upon the general merits of the question and was de- clared out of order at this stage of the proceed- ings. It Was not, however, presented at any, sub- sequent potnt in the open'session of the Council. fhe quieting of this resolution and the discussion thereon opened the way lor Dr, Budington to com- plete his statement and presentation of the case of the imviting churches. In relation to the charges Which they make against Plymouth church of irregularity im order aud disctpiine, ne here nothing had taken place in his church approxi- lating to What took place in Plymouth chureh on October 21 last. Touching the invitation extended ES Piymouth church, he cailed the Council's atten- 10n to 2 THE PLYMOUTH PROTEST, which may possibly be regarded as notin accor- QGance with the action taken by the inviting churches. He, therefore, asked the Council's sense of che propriety of tts accordance with Congrega- tlonalisu: afd of tke wisdom of calling this Coun- cil, It is said, he remarked, that this protest re- | interprets the interpretation of independence | put lorth in December Jast, and, if that is so, Lask | you to say what reflection it casts upon the church, We have endeavored to explain our- selves as plainly as possiple, and does that pro- | ve! indicate that that church has been | presided over by principles hitherto un- | knowa in chureh administration’ If that | protest 18 to be taken as part and parcel of the papers tocome before this Council, and, as a con- Linnation of what was done in December last, we ask you to tell us whetifer that document 1s con- sistent with the sprit of Congregationalism? Give | an answer, he said, which shail not be mis- | taken—give an answer winch Plymouth church | shail understand, and by which the public shall not be misled as to the sentiments of this Council. | Are the principles upon which we bave acted | the principles which you accept? Are tney | the principles of our jathers? Do we need @ “new departure?’ The pripcipies now put forth | by Plymouth church were hitherto unknown in | that church or in any orher Congregational chureh, If vals protest is to be @ part oi that upon which you are to give your deliverauce, you will be able to sce with what a spirit we have been contend- | img. We have roiled the burden off our shoulders, | he said, on yours. Give us a result which Plymouth | church wl understand without any mistake, and | which those who are to follow us will not look upon a> ambiguous, An opportunity was now given for Dr. Storrs or anyother member of the committees to add any- thing that they might have to say on this question, Beiore addressing the Council, however, vr. Storrs thought the brethren might wish to ask him ques- tons, and bis remarks might be a sufficient answer to them. CATECHISING THE COMMITTEE. Dr. RANKIN took advantage of Dr. Storrs’ readi- Ness to be catechised, and propounded a series of questions that shaved as close to the root of the evil aS Was possible under the circumstances to do, They are as follow Is this committee satisfied that, in their approaches to mouth church, they adopted the method recom: menued by our Saviour ja the eighteenth chapter of Matthew ? Did they have any personal interviews with Mr. of these letters? | | Was any effort mave to secure such interviews; and if not, why not f ; What detinite duty and authority have the churches calling this Councit ¢ Have the: ¢ duties relation to the fellowship of the ehurches Were the letters writte to the t churches calling this Council Was u Xpediency of approaching Mr. Beecher ever liberation ¢ ce have the committee calling this Coun- | atthe case of discipline acted upon by Piymouth | ‘Was not regarded as an extreme and exceptional | Professor SMyTH remarked that Dr. Storrs said something in his address yesterday about tne vindication of Mr. Beecher’s reputation, caliing for an Investigation of the slanders against him. He | (br. Smyth) wanted more light on this point, he | therefore asked as to the cause of the action of | Piymouth church touching those accusations. | Rev. Ray PaLMER, D. D., objected to the putting | or the answering o1 this question. It touched, he Said, one of the most delicate and sensitive pomts ol this whole controversy, and which wouid awaken more feeling in Plymouth church than any | The Councii is not | called to investigate the character of Mr. Beecher or the suffering of his reputation. That is in the | hands o! bis own church and he hoped the Council would avoid this point. Dr, Smy7u replied that he did not raise the question of Mr, Beecher’s character, but merely wanted light on a matter relerred to in the public documents ang upon which the advice of tie | Council is asked. | AN iMPLIED THREAT EXPLAINED. Dr. PALMER asked Dr. Storrs if he understood him correctly yesterday to say that In case the de- | liverances of the Council should not satisfy tne | churches calling it he would never hereafter hold feliowship witn any Congregational church? or | did Dr. Storrs say that he would never give the right band of fellowship to a new churen ¥ | Dr. STORRS explained this refereuce promptly. | if our doctrine of church Jellowship, he said, gives | the churches with which we are connected by this fellowship the right to do precisely what they please in respect to doctrine, order and discipline, making a convert Jor immorality, as Plymorth church suggests, and we are bound to silence by | the obhgations of fellowship and have no right to remonstrate without its being heid an offence, I say I never will give the right hand of tellowship w any other society until God tells me what that | society will do during tts continuance. This senti ment when uttered on Wednesday, drew lorth mingled hisses and applause. Yesterday only ap- plause. Dr. CHAPIN inquired whether any pressure had been brought to bear upon the member of Piy- mouth church, who had brought the charg against Mr. Tilton, and whether any private cor- | respondence liad passed between the pastor of ergetic inher | Plymouth church and the other pastors or commit. | tees on the character involved. | Rey. br. ByincTON said that Plymouth church | uuderstood that the offer of a mutual council had been withdrawn, he asked whether a threat of ex- communication of a certain kind had been made | toward the cierks of Plymouth churcu under cer- jor her exertions. It may here be remarked (hac the Rev. ry M. Storrs, D. D., is kuowa to be a | firms believer ii and a warm personal intend of the Rev. iesry Ward Beecher. During the pending of the Wouncil Mr. Storrs Was in constant and friendly intercor Mr. Beecher, aud has maintained the clos sivnal, a8 Well as personal, rela- tions witn | It suould also be remarked that ene of the ine features of this remarkab! » of Uke most influentiai have affected the Coun- Council bes BOCis! agenci Wi ci has be vhat of the very man who has never been seen within tue Walls of the ton avenne church, Mr. Beecher lumsei!, Many of the promient members of the Council have called upon Mr. Beecher personally, during the intervais between the sessions, and these social calls. though, of couse, uno exervise an important ‘hough indirect imfuence upon the Council. Many of the prominent mem- ders of Plymouth churen have also extended social courtesies to the members of the Council, and a course of TRA DRINKING tender such circumstances lias materially moditied the views of certain delegates. Among the merm- bers who have already made their mark in the “secret session” of the Council @re Messrs. Dexter and Post. Kev. M. Dexter is @ large he Mau, with adeep voice. He is the editor of the Congregationalist. Dr. Post, of St. Louis, is very old, very tunid and very nervous, Both men are ungnestionadly anie. Rev. Mr. Bartletc is known as THE CONGREGATIONAL BOANBRGES. He speaks like @ thunder storm, and speaks early BDG ollen. Kev. Isaac Clarke is an old man and a deep thinker. ‘ihe key, J. I. Holmes is Known as @ Professor Harris, of Yale College, is amin, stooping, s rly, Dut full of latent fire, while the “vusiness man’ of the Council is gener. ally regarded be the Rev. Dr. Tayior, of Bing. hamton, Who is said to be, us aruie, Opposed to “secret sessions.” The possivitity oy a new issue of ineonvertitie paper I regard with amazement and anciety, ant, in my judgment, such an issue would be @ detri- ment aud @ shame.—CuARLES Sumer, The Proceedings. cial, Tus | The vrethren of the Council evidently don’t be- | Neve quite so mach tn talking to God as they do in taiking to eacu other on the questions in con- froversy, At the hour of nine A. M. yesterday there were scarcely two score persons present in the Clinton avenue church. The few faithful ones, however, carried on the prayer meeting for half gn hous under the leadership of Rev. Dr, Webb, of Boswn, Shortly aiter nine o’ciock the Moucraror tain implied circumstances ? Dr. Storrs replied tor himself that he never made aby direct remark, and, from his knowledge of the gentlemen comprising the committees, he did pot think they made any such remark. He was giad, he said, that Dr, Chapin had asked those questions. Mr. West, the member of Piymoutn chareh referred to, was present yesterday, he and if he were here to-day he would testify th did nov Know his name, did not know that such a man lived in this city or was a member of Ply- mouth church until he came to me to | ask advice in this matter. He refused all advice as to the morai consequences involved, but merely asked jor technical advice in the presen- tation of the charges. Ge had jor weeks {eit it as a burden upon his heart of which he musi be re- jieved, and he believed it was the Spirit ot God forcing it upon him. The cuurch, he believed, was suffering—tis pastor’s reputation was suffering. He asked no counsel and would receive none e) cept as to the tecnnicality of a certain form of pre- | senting the charges. Dr. Storrs told him it was A DELICATE THING d he did not feel at liberty to give him any sug- gesuions. He bade him to seé another minister, and the two could meet and give oun such advice on this point, buton the general matter they would give him none. fhe two ministers did give Mr, West such advice as enabled him to brig this matter jnto Plymouth church. Dr. Storrs said he had had no personal conference with Mr. Beecher on this, because such conterence had béen made utterly impossible by Mr. Beecher. Objection was here made against going into the privace reiations of the pastors of Pilgrim church and Flymouth church, The business 01 the Council was to Invesiigate the troubie between the cnarches. Dr. RANKIN Wanted to know whether Dr. Storrs had made every effort to heal the breach betore | the charches made this trouble? Did he act ac- | cording to the rule of Christ in Matthew xyilt., concerning the treatment of the trespassing brother ? | Dr. SMYTH hoped this question would not be | answered except by ubauimous request of the Council. The MODERATOR ruled that they could not ask Dr. Storrs to expiain his private relations wita air, Beecher. WHAT THEY DID AND WHY THEY DID IT. Dr, Storrs remarked that he ssid yesterday that Mr. Beecher’s card would be accepted by sympa- thetic minds a8 a final vindication of himsell from the imputations that had been cast upon him. | ‘That was given as argument for not prosecuting | the matter in the church. But had sucn action | been taken it would nave saved him from certain | stings and taunts that had been flung at him by the press. One paper had recently stated that the | pastor of Plymouth church was not a mau for the Matrons and maidens o1 Brooklyn to follow. In time to come, Whenever a paper found itself in antago- pism to the pastor of Plymouth chorcn tt will Ming Ab lua p Dowued dart, aod thp dart will be, “Xour | | offer, but Plymouth church could not acc | Cettie. wi 1874.—TRIPLE church did not investigate the story.” The mem- bers of Plymouth church had railied round their pastor with magnificent loyalty, but though MR, BEECHEH’S CHURCH PROVED THAT IT LOVED HM, the fact that no investigation had been ordered showed that itloved him, oh, how weil, but not wisely, Dr. Storrs denied most positively that he was aciuated by persoual consideration in this matter. bi, he added, it is said, that Piymoutn churen is exceptional, that 18 true as to its num- bers, tue fame and power of its pastor, the Maguificence of its income and the larzeuess of 18 enterprises, But would the brethren tel! him (ir. Storrs) at what point it became so exvep- tional as to be reheved from all obligations of dis- cipiine within and tellowship witbout, He would have them not mistake or underrate the gravity of the situation, for they had come to the point where two rivers met. There were two churches, he would not say but that in point of wealth they were the equals of Prymouth, obe Was Lhe Oldest Of its order iu the city and the other lacked but a few montis of be ing as Ol0 as Plymouth church, They nad done no dishonor. ‘There was the one church greater, per- haps, and more jamous than eitner of tue two eburches, but the differences between them could not be healed by any abstract proposition, and what he asked them to bear im mind Was “reinem- ber that YOU ARE OUR LAST RESORT.” The Doctor went on to show the effect of Plym- outh’s discipline upon Congregationalism, and asked the Councti to give due consideration to all the facts and render adeliverance thereon that should carry welgat with it in ali the fucar Dr. RANKIN Was not able to say that ali the pre- lminaries were taken according to the spirit of the Gospel. Dr. Pos? asi for a direct answer as to whether they withdrew their aller of @ mutual council, a3 | Piymouth chureh has stated ¥ br. Bupineron did not give a categorica swer, but quoted the action of Plymouth church, which had debarred them irom continuing the offer, | But, nevertheless, he read rom the pupiished cor- | respondence to show that they had renewed this pt the points upon which @ council might be called to decide, and it offered none of its own. Dr, SroRRs made a jew remarks about the com- mittees of bis ehurch, and called on Mr, R. P. Buck to state the unanimity of the church’s acuiou, which he did. ‘The “case” having been thus fully presented, Mr. Wilcox moved that the Couneil go into 7 session. This was opposed by other delegates, but the Moderator suggested that they could expedite business by such secreev, The motion was, tlere- jore, varried and the Council adjourned to an “upper room,’? While the congregation adjourned to the streets. ‘The secret sessions were continued during fhe afternoon and evening, and, it was believed, would be prolonged to-lay. A stronger spirit ol antagonism to Plymouth church was said to have been developed in secret than had been mani- fested in public session. Their protest was looked upon asa challenge, and its spirit was deemed un- christian, It is believed, however, that the Coun- cil will not condemn or excise any church or mem- ber, bat wili gives a non-committal deliverance on Congregational usage. The possibility of a new issue of inconvertible paper I regard with amazement and anxiety, and, in my judgment, such an issue would be a detri- ment and a shame.—CHARLES SUMNER. SHIPPING NEWS.
