Sketch of Proceedings relative to the Secession of the Remonstrants from the Synod of Ulster . \ h the Monthly Repository for August last , an account was given of the debates in the Synod of Ulster , assembled at Lurgan , in the latter end of the preceding June ; aud our readers were informed that the consideration of the
main question between the majority of the body and the Remonstrants , was defe p red till the second Tuesday of August , when a special meeting was to be held to determine that important affair . It may appear strange , although it stems to be the fact , that by the Irish public the blame of the indecent bickerings which for swore years have disgraced
the Synod of Ulster , was thrown equally on- the nominally Orthodox , who were in every instance the aggressors , and the small party who , with Mr . Montgomery at their head , stood forward as the advocates for freedom of conscience , and who * in every instance acted purely on the defeusive . It would appear from some expressions which have been
dropped , that no small degree of censure was cast upon the latter class of persons , even by those who ought to have been better able to appreciate their conduct and estimate their motives . False as this judgment was , these gentlemen were willing to defer to it , since it only affected themselves as individuals ; and in order to take away every pretence for cavil , they agreed to absent themselves

Wb are happy to find that it is the intention of the Unitarian Association Committee to send for the second son of WUiiam Roberts , of Madras a youth of promising talents and good disposition , anxl to have him educated in this
country , so as to qualify him to return to Ludia as their Missionary . The age o / bis- father , and the rise of a second native Unitarian congwgation in the neighbourhood o € Madras „ render this measure very exuedieut . We cannot but anticipate from it important and beneficial results . The success of Win . Roberta will ,, we believe , bear a very
advantageous comparison with that of any missjoiiiuy of any denomination now in India ^ and , i / bis son be the inheritor of his piety ,, bis ; princLples ,. and hi a diligence , ax ^ in the advaufcigett which be will posagft ^ aaa aatfce , be enabled to add those arising from English education * and fcom b # iutjL a&ulthiUter as the accredited agtiut
