I ahull not in present insert equally pal- :*ble points on "effectual calling" and :he "perseverance of aaints" if need be [ will crave your indulgence in a future article. But I must quote Calvin him- self in one of his tracts to Sebastian. He says (to Sebastian) : " You deny that it is just in God to tiny line, urUeu on ucrounf uf tnrruf- Peraons innumerable are taken put of life while yet infanta. Put forth now your virulence against (iod. irkoprt- i/>ifirVji in/., rtrrnal deuUt harmlr** infant* torn from tkrtr mother'* kraut*. He who will not detest this blasphemy (of yours) when it U only expos<-d. may curse me at his will. For it cannot be demanded that I should be safe and freed from the abuse of those who do not s[*rc (iod." Now, Professor McLaren used the fo| lowing language, as rvi-oru-d on the 4th f i Vtotier laat in the Mail, via., "The Presbyterian Church has ever Seen diatinguialied for its loyal attach- ment to that syatom of doctrine welch is )>opularly known as Calvinism, and those ho are acquainted best with its numer- ous branches throughout thu world, will be most ready to admit, that wherever it has enjoyed an on trammelled Preebyter- government, it has shown uoAiyti of any. general departure, froan its aucieut tin irni|fi. " I presume I! will not dispute thns* quo- tations ; they will serve t" show their in r and contradiction th-ir opp.. sit n ui to man's moral sense of what a merciful God should be, as formulated f n 'in the only powers the same God lias giten him from which to judue, and it tlao shuws how aUunl the charge of can cattiring. Juat put along side of the above creed, tbe fact stated by the apoatlc that Christ was the atonement for the sins of the trrW* m>ritt, or the thousand and one invitations to come to him, and answer foryuumelf, gentle reader ' Which is right or which ia wrong? Failing to cope with the subject undertaken, R calls to his assistance the tfjirrirnft of a pr old woman; it is a climax of fatuity it needs no reply. It is evident ha haa ovrr-eatiniated his ability, and as he) ab- andons further discussion, although pos- sessing an answer and reason for every phase he might take, I have no desire; to continue the cetitroversy. Already B. instead of arguing on abstract theories, as stated, haa tried tn diverge to person- alities, which 1 shall not return. It i> not to the PrvahyU'riann the nivunient is against, but the doctrines held. As a claas of citizens, they are eatttmiud for their ao many excellent qualities, aud their should be no ill-ieelmg in diacMBSitii! th doctrines held by them or any com- munity.
