LI (Roprint from “ London Times.”) EUCHARISTIC VESTMENTS IN THE CHURCH. PROTEST AGAINST PERMISSIVE USE. THERE was a great gathering in ths Queen's Hall last Friday, in spite of very bad weather, to protest against the permissive use of Eucharisiio vestments in the Church. The meeting had been called by tho Laymen’s Committee formed by Sir Edward/C’arkc, who presided. Sir Edward Clarke moved this resolution : " That in view of the resolution of tho Bishops of the Upper Houso of the Convocation of Canterbuiy in favour of the permissive use of the medieval vestments in the c-lebration of the Holy Communion in tho Church of England, this meeting declares its resolute opposition to any alteration of, cr doparture ftom, tho law of the Church of England as declared by the Courts having authority in matters ecclesiastical, and its determination to mointnin tlint which ban been the established usage of tho Church since tho Reformation.” Tho burden of this work, he said, should ho taken up by tho laity. The clergy wero in a difficult position. In tomo dioceseß a Protestant curate had no hope of episcopal prom r tion, and. indeed, was scarcely admitted. The Bishops often lamented that tho intellect and manhood of the country did not sufficiently respond to the claims of tho Church. He did not wonder at it. Tho intellect and manhood were being driven out cf the Church by these practices, which tho intellect despised and tho marhood rejected by instinct. Ho hoped before long to seo baih Houses of' Parliament praying the sat sied that he 1 would enforce tho Prayerbook’s directions and tho law as declared by the Cjourts with jurisdiction in matter ecc'esiaßtic&l.
