CHURCH ACCOMMODATION.

(To tbo JMitor.)

818,--Tho«3 interested in religious movements are plaoud under obligations to you for the palna you hive tnkea in perfecting tae churoh attan. dance census and by adding thereto the sitfroa accommodation provided In the various churobes. This gives a veiy correotideao! the relative petition of the vbtlobb denomina tions. Your leading articles on the suhjeot last; ■week were charaotarised by sreat eood bbmb and moderation, and contained many iriS counEal*, for which the various minister ought to.feeUndebtedto yonT The fteig IS2 XtSJ >t t ,7m ha, V 9 done' Mn Blve effectual atf by firm and jost criticism, printed tasSol! a kind war, rather ttun by violent denuncia tion. The sitting aooommodatlon BhewßwSu for s new oountrr, where the population totat creasing: at a rapid rate i it shews provision Sc nearly 52 per oen.t, of the population; and «£• BlderldK that the whole of this is effective"al! befnif wit Wn easy reach of the reildenou oY tha people, it ooght to be held as ampin although Horace Mann laid down S8 per oant v the required provision. The lesson to be drawn ttom this census is, I think, that we neeSw more flhurch building at present, and that etch denomination waufa consolidation. The oft re cm-rinsc -question " flow are our churches to be filled? demands solution, and on this subjeot we require something more than has yet been advanced. The hint you threw out that there were many men who had missed their calling when they entered the ministry Is but too true. I have heard Mr Samuel Morley, M.P., who has perhaps as largo an acquaintance with ministers a» any man in KngUnd, publicly state big opinion that shere were large numbers of men of this oless, nnd that he invariably took the opportunity when oasis came under hl» notice of advising such persons to leave the mlntotar and pursue asooukr oalllnß. The tru» We»» of « minister is a man oaUed of God, who i<i solemnly set apart by tha Churoh to become its chief member for the time being, that he may " (rive himeeU oontinuailyta P'-apr and the ministry of the word." Mr Jtwington has written you a oouple of letters on the subject evlnemJy intended to be tatte interest of the ministers, but he blunders few. fally. He is saoh a good worker himself, and so aevored in many wa y f . that lam very muoh surprised at what he writes, a) Tfle ministers have too mnoh to do; their dutlea are toa varied. The remedy is simple i iSt the ohurohes do as the early ones did-in«snt deacons, that they may dUoharga certainlyone- V? ltt he yd enui »eratea by JI? Kwingtont (il The chief cause, he says,is we do notMd W«h eaough ooaimtrjially. He dearades Sa ministry to a Pto'ession, and the iSviw lS mea are to be bouuht for an aveJMertiiMO ?M.S? Uln> Vi w ao^ority he has forfltoa this average. I know not, but he contraatatSa men we nave here with Karrar. Madon, BpnS scon, and Ailon at home: the inference beW that if we will bid high enough aJmmeroSy for such men. we can get them, and they would • f^!» ohnM fhee* Wlu! theß« ministers |wS % te 9 haron" the twa »a"er are sot, and receive only what the churches they mSE sier to ohoose to give them, but this is hot tholr eeoret|of sneoess. but the other " that they alva themselves continually to prayer and the minis £s S *%*, w£f •*•" l frtOly coo'ess that if we are reduced to the commercial transaction, and to bnyinti the services of ministers at Hi a weofe salary. It more tban ac-Miints ■ for half-empty churohos. (3) He contrasts the difficulties m the present ministers with tboea St Paul bod to contend with, and before which he "quailed." and makes out that tha difficulties In the present day are infinitely greater. What the difficulties were that bi. Paul quailed before does not appear; ho had plenty of them preheating themselves at every step of big journey, and of every varied oharaoton hindrances, persecutions, imprisonments punlsbmenta, called upon to defend himself be* fore the very highest tribunals; not even before Jfelix. a grip D a, or at Mars Hill, or even in fighting wild beasts or en countering ship wrt oka do we find him *' quailing. All these he paraed through ha vide also "the care of all the churches," lost he should be a burden ;to them. " Übouring with his own hands." The dlffl. oultiea of today are greater than in St Paul's la the argument. The logical conclusion is, we must have gi eater men than St. Paul, U tha world is to be "converted.—l must draw this long letter to a close. I have not suggested any practfoal remedies, but examined nnpraotioal ones, I may return to the subject it you will find me room for another communication,— Yours. &0,, April 27th, EQLIiB.
