In i E2w l his motion, and at greater length in the o je / speech by which the motion was supâ€" o irlel I ported, the rev. doctor submitted that in o ,_Al | passing the act for the abotition of patronâ€" 2x 7 | age, the [mperial Parliament had virtually x sin | admitted that the Legislature and Govâ€" \\..., a | enment of 1842 were in error in refusing U" \‘~ | to assent to the Claim of Rights presentdd yeay o the General Assembly of the Church f o‘ Scotland, and therefore bo nd to .. ~|\ | take means to undo the evils so causedâ€" __ _ | it might be by giving to the people again» 14 in addition to their f reeâ€"will offerings, the benetit of the territorial system and of the public ecelesiastical revenues. It is a * ""*\ wellâ€"known fact that Dr. Begg is in favour, | now only of the principle of an endowed | state Church as opposed to one supported iaw . | by the voluntary contributions of its own ou e<â€" ’ members, as the Free Church of Scotland is at present, but of am actual union o Mate | between the Free and Established ~ sections of Presbyterians. To those not i or« | acquainted with the history of ec: _ _ | clesiastical polit‘cs in Sco.tl.nd the * |ides would seem a very fair and reasonâ€" able one. But d;eye is a strong cpposiâ€" | on to endowed State Churches in any th« a!@ | form growing up in Scotland,and there can be no doubt that the grui majority in the Free Church are entirely in sympathy with _____ | the object of the agitation, although such \‘*"" | has not so far been formully acknowledgâ€" ar.l t |ed, The Free Church is" not necessarily C & "voluntary" church.

To vote down o the | Dr. Begg‘s motion directly would thereâ€" wa anc | fore have placed the Presbytery of Edinâ€" burgh in a somewhat awkward and anoâ€" "SYred | malgus position, The difficulty, however, e new | was successfully met. The Rev.

It would be better, howâ€" ad °nâ€"| ever;if the majority in the Free Church l party | would openly declare their sentiments, to the| instead of evading the real issue by ‘ederaj | cleverly worded amendments ; for, as Dr. Begg in his opening sentences remarked, °"*""~| there are two things which must strike oughly | intelligent men jn regard to the presen; be the | ecclesiastical state of Scotland: first, | are not past repentance), may do better, be better and more successful in the | future.

OP THE SEA |__ _COURT BUSINESS AT AYLMER. | 4 the Editor _ofr â€"TME TIYMES, The Falitor desires it to be "istInetiy understood ioat. while inserting the comm: nications of Correspondents, be Isvin no way to be held mrm':-!b«o jor the opluions expiensed therein Sir,â€"When I have taken up my pen to write on the subject above indic:ted, I can assure you I have done ro greatly against my own will. But I feel the necesâ€" sity so keemly, not only on my own acâ€" count, but also on account of the whole commercial community, that human nature could rot longer resist the temptaâ€" | tion to complain. 1 could not, there: fore, remain silent, or put up with the _ incenveniences _ to _ which I mave, â€" in _ common with _ others,| been subjected, in corsequence of the | delays which have taken place, by Judge Lafontaine, in rendering judgments in the Court at Aylmer, without protesting. Whether theso delays arise from incompâ€" etency, disinclination for work, or a deter mination not to keep up the business of the Court, I do not know ; but this I do know, that when [Iis Hovour takes any case en delibre, it may fairly ba said to have gone to sleep. There it will rest until be thinks proper to render his decision, and I am told that he has | not esivon judgment‘ in _ any contest Superior Court case for months, 1 hope the Minister of Justice will see the necessity of coming to the assistance of the commercial community, ‘ not only of the County of Ottawa, but of: the whole surrounding district, all of. whom are deeply interested in the matter. 1 If, on in(txi , it were found that the busiâ€" . ness of t oEourt is more than one man. can attend to, it would surely not be out of place to suggest that t{e Minister should send an additional judge. It cannot be said that the amount of work to be done at Aylmer is _ in _ excess _ of _ that â€" done elsewhere, yet it seems next to impossi« lble to have judgment rendered except after very long delays. I can assure the Minister of Justice there is an absolute necessity for some radical change, or for some action which will arouse the preâ€" | sent occupant of the bench to a sense of his duty to the public. If the gentieman is too old, let a younger aud more vigorâ€" ous man take his placeâ€"ons who would be & credit to the bar, and whom the public can look up to with contiâ€" dence. The sooner something _ is done the better. I have nothing personally | against Judge Lafontaine, but a considerable experience during the the past few years leads me to the conâ€" clusion that the public interestsâ€" demand & more prompt attention to court busiâ€" ness than bas for some time been the custom. From all [ can learn, the chanâ€" ges I have suggested would be a great relief to the gentlemen of the bar who are uocan:m«?_ to attend at Aylmer. _ and. of the . gods, who: were the Roman Catholic and _ Anglican churches. _ The ‘day, particularly the ‘@fternoon was spent in driving, and hunâ€" ‘dreds might bave been seen in every jvariety of rig from the train of the old 1 ;&aww to the:â€" more capacious omnibus.

How conâ€" trary is the fact ! Old enmities were forâ€" gotten, new friendships were created, and many aâ€"fireside was made happy by the | reassembling of .members of family around the " Yule" log, who the rest of the year are compelled to live far from _the parental roof. It is a plouin'g reflection \tofindthtttherei-anuon of| the year that thus cheers the drooping spirits of ‘ frail humanity. There is another feature about this holiday season thataffords scope for the philanthropist, and that is that while the wealtiy and middle classes enjoy a good Christmas. dinner, would it not have been well to see that poverty stricken brethren throughout the city enjoy to any extent the pleasures of this futivitx.?‘ There is a consolation in knowing t many of them do, through the generosity of our different charitable organiz tions, yet there are others who may feel disposed to join in the jubilee who, for want of means, are unable to do "so. It behoves us, therefore, while makâ€" ing merry ourselves, to turn aside for a moment and impart some degree of comfort to those who _ by _ the vicissitudes of â€" life _ have _ been glwed under the ban of misfortune. hristian charity will be doubly blessed: on such an occasion as the present, which â€" is a fitting time, considering the rigorous | olimate in which we dwell, to dispense a‘ms to the poor. l&emem{nwhe poor, and in the giving of Christmas presents let the destitute and the needy come in for a share of your bounty, as such dona tions cannot but radiate a kindly influenc» upon your surroundings. ‘The present is also a fitting time to return thanks to the Giver of all good for having permitted us again to enjoy. the Ylwuros of anather Chris‘mas season, and to render unto Hitm grateful praiso for the botutâ€"ous «iiâ€"fen sations of L‘s Providence.
