The Peculiar Views of an Ex -Anglican (Now Baptist) Clergyman. coMPELLED RESIGN. Some months ago the Rev. Wm. Bros:A- men received and accepted a call to the pastorate of the Yorkville Baptist Church. Mr. Brookman had up to a then recent period been a clergyman of good standing iu the Anglican Church, but had resigned his charge iii St. Catharines and seceded front the Anglican cerumunion ou account of hie. avowed inability to accept the doctrines of the Church on the subject of the regeneration of infants and infant_ baptism in general. He wrote to -Bishop Fuller, ids diocesan, a very candid letter announcing his secession and this letter, first published in a local newspaper, went the round of the Canadian. press. When Mr. Brookman was called to the Yorkville , Baptist, Church, he frankly admitted that he did not accept the doctrine of the .. eternity of future punishment, and in consequence of this admission the " Council " which, accord- ing to Baptist ecclesiastical procedure, was selected to consider tile proposed induo• tion, was not unanimous as to the expo. dieney of accepting him. Rev. J. Donovan, of the Alexander Street Church, was one of the objectors, while, after it conference with Mr. Brookman, Rev. Dr. Castle, Rev. J. Dyke and: others, constitutiog a majority of the "Council," agreed to sec- oed-the earnest desire of - tlie majority of the congregation to have birn for their pastor. The peculiar views of Mr. Brook, man, and tbe want of unanimity amongst the -members of the "Council," were brought before the public ineidentally by Rev. Mr. Donovan, who, at the congrega- tionalmeeting held to .v.?eloome the new pastor, Stated that though he had been averse to accepting one holding the peculiar views of Mr. Brookman; he was -.not disposed to withhold froth him the right hand of "ministerial fellowship. - The:can- sequence of this publieity was it keen and sustainedcontroyersy in the columns of the C,aniidien.

It was clearly their duty to insist upon an adherence to thedootrinal standards of the Church. No one bolding much opinions as those entertained by Mr. Brookman should remain in miuisterial charge of a Baptist church-, and as Mr.Brookman had tendered his resignation he trusted that it would be accepted. Mr.Weston spoke in favor of the amend- ment. He hoped that the church would not place a premium upon hypocrisy by ousting the pastor for giving expressiou to his honest thoughts. Mr. John Carter supported the resolu- tion, urging that as Mr. Brookman had positively declared his non-acceptance of the orthodox etitudards of faith the church could not possibly sustain him in his depar- ture therefrom without virtually abandon- ing the creed of their fathers. Finally after a protracted discussion the amendment WILI4 put and declared lost by a vote of 28 to 25, and the original motion was declared carried by the same vote. It was then moved that the resignation of Mr. Brookman take effect forthwith. It was moved in amendment that it take effect on the first Sabbath in August. The amendment was carried by a vote of 33 to '21 and the Meeting adjourned. Latest Scottish Jottings. Robert Kidd, keeper of Edzell Castle, died lately after a short illness, in his 77th year. • Rev.
