* The Barrister ( of whom we had nearly lostsight , ) notices Mr . Clayton s recommendation , in a mote attached to the discourse 9 of the Eclectic Review , ( a monthly publication set on foot for the
maintenance of evangelical principles , ) and terms it cc a pompous eulogium * ' ' In reading it , we remembered having heard that the work whose merits it so loftily sounded , wa $ the property and the \* produce of the 8
pen , " ( Mr , G / s sermon ^ p . 1 ) . of a company of Evangelical ministers , and the exclamation involuntarily escaped us , What if Mr * Clayton should be one of the authorsjatid proprietors !

power to enforce itself . —But we have to complain , that the Barrister does not use constitutional language as to the law which protects , and in one sense , makes
dissentiug ministers : they do not licence but , register themselves * £ . licence , in its common acceptation , implies a power of refusaltj but in the present case there is ; no such power . Clerks of the peace are required to register every p ^ Ef
