Archbishop of Dablin, thv‘ Bishops of Winchester, Ely, wloucester, Montreal, Nova Scotia, Ontario, New York, Ohio, North Carolina, Gibraltar, the Primus of Scotland, and Bishop Chapman, the Bishop 0 New Zealand being appointed convener. he report of this committee was in effect he recommendation of an address to the Co lonial BishopricgCouncil, to be prefaced with) the statement, " That.while we accept the pirifual validity of "the sentence of deposiâ€" ion pronounced by the metropolitan an Bishops of the South African Church upon Dr Colenso, we consider it of the utmost impor ce for remoying. the existing scandal fro he English communiorti, that there should be ronounced by some competent English cour uch a legal sentence on the errors of the saic Dr. Colenso as would warrant the Colonial Bishopries‘ Council in â€"ceasing to pay hi stipend, and would justify an appeal ‘to the rown to cancel his letters patent." The dom ittee reter to the fact that in 1863 fortyâ€"on ishops concurréd in an address to Dr. Colenso, rging him to resign his bishopric, and in th me year some of Dr. Colenso‘s publication ere cond«mned by the convocation of Canterâ€" bury. . That the Bishop of Capetown, by virtu f his ietters patent as mctrop(fiihn, migh have visited Dr. Colenso with summary juri fiction, and mighthave taken out of his the management of the diocese of Natal, bu having reason to believe himsclt competent o so, he summoned Dr. Colenso before himsel nd suffragans, Dr. Colenso appeared by hi octor ; his defense was heard, and judged to insuflicient to purge him from heresy, and afte ntence was pronounced he â€"was offered ppeal to the Archbishop of Canterbary. Phese. proceedings of the Atrican church were pproved by Bug convocation of Canterbury nd York, bysthe prqeral convention of the Episcopal synod of thKigpted States in 1865 y the Episcopal synod of Cauada, 1865 ; a nally, that the spiritual validity of the senâ€" ncesof disposition was accepted by fiftyâ€"six bishops on the occasion of the Lombeth con ference. Judging, thefefore, that the §: is piritgally vacant, and learning by the evi Jence brotight before them that there an y members of thÂ¥church who are unab accept the ministrations of Dr. Colenso, e committee deem it to be the duty of the etropolitan and other bishops of & Africa to proceed, upon the clection of the lergy and laity in Natal, to consectate one to ischarge those spiritual functions ot whic ese members of the church are now in want ersltaud, agreed that the ;;pâ€"o;t'.s" inted and circulated. And thus Lambcth conference ot 1867. As regards the church in Natal, the followâ€" ing was the r{solution submitted to the comâ€" mittee : * That in the judgment of the bishops now nssembled, the whole Anglican commu ion is deeply infured by the present condi ion of the church in Natal ; and that a cont mittee: beâ€" now appointed. at this gTheral meeting to report on the best moile by which rechurch may he delivered from a continuâ€" nce of this scandal, and the true faith main ined. .
