the lowest aspirant , to bring the severest charges against Christians of our denomination : and it may not be in our power , occasionally , to avoid the unpleasant task of self-defeece . Young writers are apt , in such cases , to indulge a warmth of personality , which , however consistent with the
spirit and fire of youth , is often inconsistent with the spirit of the religion which they profess , and often greatly injures their cause . For even bystanders who know nothing of the question in dispute , are naturally led to form their judgment in any
controversy by the manner in which it is conducted ; and are apt to conclude , that he has the worst of the argument who is first put out of temper . You , my young friends , have already before you the examples of several of your predecessors , as eleven of this Institution , * who have defended their
religious principles in a manner highly creditable to their proficiency in learning , and especially in Biblical criticism ; and , at the same time , to what is of much greater importance , the truly Christian spirit in which
they have written . 1 hope that you will , in like manner , * be ready to give an answer to every one that asketh of you a reason of the hope that is in you ; ' but I hope that you will , also in like manner , always do it * with meekness and fear . * And that
though , after all , ' men should speak against you as of evil-doers , ' they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ . *" The deliberations of the Trustees ,
at their regular meeting on Friday morning , were principally directed to the arrangements necessary in order to prepare for the system of more strict domestic discipline , which it is proposed to introduce into the College ; with a view t 6 which the Rev .
W . Turner , the Mathematical Tutor , has engaged to remove into the College Buildings , and to undertake the personal superintendence of the Students , and the enforcement of the
laws of the Institution , which have therefore undergone a complete revision . Mr . John James Tayler , who , during Mr . Kenrick's residence at Gottingen , where he proposes to t Madge , Yates , Hunter . Hollaad and Rutton .

i ^ WB ^ v North Eastern Unitarian Association . On Tuesday and Wednesday , 22 nd and 23 rd of June , the North Eastern Unitarian Association was held in Lynn , Norfolk . The Rev . X Smith ,
of Lutton , preached the Tuesday evening , and the Rev , W . J . Fox , of London , twice the following day . Wednesday morning the Rev . N . Walker , of Wisbeach , conducted the devotional part of the service , and Mr . Smith that of the evening . About
seventy friends to our interest dined at the Duke ' s Head Inn , and were highly gratified with the sentiments afterwards delivered by Messrs . Fox , Selby , Walker and Smith . Owing to unavoidable circumstances , no association has been held in the North Eastern district during the last three
years , but in order to prevent as far as practicable the want of proper arrangements in future , it was proposed by Mr . Treleaven , the chairman of the meeting , that a subscription should be entered into for the purpose of establishing a Fund to purchase
tracts for distribution , and for meeting occasional expenses connected with associations ; that in this way a bond of union might be more effectually formed , and the parties interested might have still more pleasing object * in view at their social meetings . The
proposition being acceded to , W . Stanger , Esq . of Fleet , kindly consented to accept the office of Secretary and Treasurer until the next meeting . A respectable number of the Lynn friends and others , having become annual subscribers , it is hoped and warmly recommended that the ministers and friends to the measure in our
circuit will use their influence to . obtain as many more as possible against the time of our next association at Boston . The Rev . T . Madge of Norwich , is invited to preach on that occasion , Lynn , July 4 , 181 9 *
