Ministerial Resignations and Appoint ments . Dr . David Rejes has given in his resignation to the Unitarians of JMertbyr , alleging as a reason the narrow principle of their chapel-deed . The principle to which he objects , and which he deems incompatible with the spirit of Dissent , is contained in certain provisions of the deed to the following effect :
That a vote in the election of a minister , and in other affairs of the chapel , be restricted to contributors of ten shillings a year and upwards . That two-thirds of the Trustees may eject a minister thus elected by the codtributors ; and that the minister so ejected should Ibe ineligible for ever after *
That , when the number of Trustees is reduced by deaths to five , the contributors , as above , shall be entitled to nominate successors ; the Trustees shall have the right to approve of , or reject , the persons thus nominated .
