The endeavour of any chuich to throw nff from itself the
charge of bowing to the authority of unscriptural mimes , and the allowance of scripture as the true guide of controversy , deserve praise ; and we hope the time is not far distant when Christians will no longer call themselves by party names , and particularly w-11 be ashamed of looking up to a Frenchman , who could murder his friend for a difference
