VOLUNTARYISM es. FREECHURCH-
• ISM.
It has long been suspected, by many, tbat
the Clergy of the Free Church were no
friends to Voluntaryism. Biting driven by
necessity, to base recourse to it for sup-
port they were cautious for a time, in
what they mid regarding it. Thief' how-
ever, were now and then occurring, wbieh
•bewail their dislike to it. Their views
. boot the power of this Magi et, though
somewhat antiquated, might bare been
deemed barratries, had it not bees that they
were occa.toaally gulag some practical
illustrations of the bearing of tbeir princi-
ple..
Of late, however, they have fairly thrown
off the mask. Dr. Ferrier, • confirmed
voluntary, some Tears ago connected him-
self with their church, thinking that be
might be a Free church minister, and .till
bold hie voluntary priscrples. He stated to
them, what bb views were, rod was receiv-
ed. Being • highly re.p.ctable preacher,
he was soon settled over one of their con
gregatiou.-Caledonia. After the lapse of
some time something occurred which be
thought refected upno voluntaryism. This
reflection upon the voluntary principle 1b.
Dr. ramped with his disapprobation, and
ever since hie life has been a continued
. cele of persecution. The people having
borne with the conduct of their Ministers,
and Dr. Ferrier 141I1 retaining hes princi-
ples, they mem to have imagined that they
might go, with safety, • step farther. At
last meeting of Synod they appointed •
Commiuino to go Caledonia, and vested
them with full power to bring the matter
to as issue. The commission met in Cale-
donia, but seemed somewhat surprised
vibes they discovered, that not only the
Minister but also the people were vola.•
tariee. ' To.y left Caledonia without com-
ing to soy decision; but having got to
II•multnn, they mustered eour.ge and
.truck Dr. Ferrier's name from the list of
Fre' Church Ministers, and in:imat•d to
the heretic' in Caledonia that they had don.
so.
Tb. Cal.dosisse however, late to their

which, we dare say, then will to mo discussion
-that the policy advocated and proved by Mr.
Cayley-tad his party wises dao power, was set
such as hush untie them to &nether trial, is,
we think, the opiniu of nearly all the thinking
mss of the Province, sod•tb.t Mr. Cayley and
his party ban changed their views, sod are pre-
pared to. canes their policy. is ac assumption
which we believe will bad few supporters eves
is Huron. Caniily the time hu pared away
in Canada, when the electors meld be charmed
or deceived with the name et a man or the Dame
d• petty. Surely the people of this country
hive already been sufficiently duped and dirp-
pieted by an e•thesiastae adherence to thespir-
it of party ; and we trust they are tow folly pre-
pared sod detormiaed to proposed i policy for
themselves, aid to elect and pay meg wbo shall
be
honest enough, to carry out that policy. AM
as Mr. Cyley and bis parry are unable to peat
to e7 single instance i• which their legislation
had a teodeney to liberalise the inetitutioss of
the country, or to a single i.stsgcie is which
they attempted to redact the public expeadi tare
of the county, or to establish political justice
among the different classes of Her Majesty's
subjects in Curd&, we ressooably conclode that
they ars not likely to be employed to carry out a
system of legislation that will hent for its ob-
ject the interests of the whole people. Still, we
eau it. an harm is Mr. Cayley being cordially
estertaised by the few idividusls in God.rieh
wbo hold similar views, and advocated policy
similar to his own. But for Mr. Cayley'• ewe
oaks, we should be sorry tit at the approbation.
tams expieseed, should be taken as an index to
the fwliop aid visions of the people of thus
Visited Counties. A man who hea occupied the
important parities of • legislator for a Bamber of

ary dent:otios of duty, ilia the whole umber

be really a pity if the approbation of th#he thirty

which he cannot possibly do better than be boat.
We de not write this as a modem predactioe,
ser as a bravado for the porpor of intimidation,
e a as an ezpressIM of perusal disrespect for
Mr. Cayley. We feel satisfied that we know
more of roe actual feeling of the tobabitsuts of
these United Coaeties is reference to poli tical
matters, than any ode man of the party who sat
