The Chairman .

The Rev . J . Y ^ jtes , Mr . Hardy , and the Rev . S . Wood , objected to the motion , as an unnecessary application of the funds of the Association . The last Gentleman observed , that we had learn ? ing enough in England iu all conscience s
what was wanted was good and eloquent preachers . He bad no objectiou to young men going to the continent , but not to bury themselves in the dust of a German University . Let them go see the , Alps and Picture Galleries , an < J converse with the people .
The Rev . Mr . Fox supported the mo * tion . It was desirable to draw closer the bond of union with our continental brer thren , and no means could be more effectual for that purpose than sending talented young men from this country to complete their studies amongst them . The eloquence of preaching would not be injured by the acquisition of useful knowledge .
After some further observations in support of the motion by the Revs . K , Tagart and T . Madge , and Mr . Tayloi having replied , the motion was agreed to by a large majority . This was ( he only resolution on which there was any division ? The Rev . E . Tagart introduced the following resolution : :
