You will find that Episcopal perverﬂty il not confined to the British Colonies, 0 following letter from “ a Burlin on .' - Episgepalian” clearly sets fort .

(From tits Protestant Cliurchnieit.) GINTLIIIIN :—.-\ circumstance bearin directly upon the welfare of our Church, and the independence of her clergy, has re- cently talten place here, which would seem, in some of its aspects, to be important

enough to find a place in your columns.

The annual meeting of the Burlington City Bible Society, auxiliary to the Ameri- can Bible Society, was held on the 19th instant. This Society has been instrumen- tal in the accomplishment of much good in our own city and vicinity, having supplied with the Word of God all the destitute a- mong us who would receive it, besides an- nually contributing to its dissemination through the parent Society.

The Committee charged with providing speakers, etc., for the anniversary, consist- ing ofa Presbyterian and a Methodist min- ister, invited a valued clergyman of our own Church from it neighboring parish to be one ofthe speakers on the occasion, to which he readily assented. But what was the surprise of this gentleman, a few days alterwards, may be judged, when the reader is told that he received a visit from the Bish- op of New-Jersey, who resisted the fullil- ment of his engagement to speak, partly on the ground that he was opposed to the dis- semination ofthe Hol Scriptures, except through the Church, and partly on the ground, that the act contemplated would be intruding into. his parish ! The Presbyter assured him, that he had no thought of in- curring his displeasure, when he accepted the invitation, that he coul not for it mo- ment have supposed it possible that he (the Bishop) would object to the distribution of the Bible in any way; that he was con- scientiously aiid earnestly favorable to the Society, and urged the Bishop not to inter- pose objection oi- his authority, to prevent the fulﬁlment of his engagement.

But all was iii‘ no avail. The Bishop pertinacioiisly continued his opposition, and appealed to the rector as it bi-olhcr minister, and as a gentleman, not to invade his par- ish. The gentleman ﬁnally yielded to his deniunds, so far as to promise not to address the meeting if he could procure a suitable substitute, but adhered to his purpose to attend it.

What an assumption of ecclesiastical power in ll Protestant Church, and in the United States !

God often makes the wrath ofmaii praise him No circumstances could well have aided the Burlington City iblo Society more tliitii those arising from the Bisliop’s opposition. The meeting was twice as large as it usually has been, and ttttmltn.-IL',d oftlie most respectable people in l¥urliii,-_r- ton, it large proportion of whom were lil;-i.-u copalians, not only those who ri+t'iisi- to sit under the ministry of the present rector of St. Mary's, but also some of the leading persons who still continue their attendance at that clturcli. Distiiigiiislicd luyiiicn and olergyiiien ol our Church otfci-ed their ser- vices in advocating a cause so dear to the heart of every Cliristiaiii; ti-cling in coni- mon with their bretlircn here, deeply inor- tified and pained at the false position given to our Church in the eyes oftliose without, by the assumptions oftlie Bishop. An clo- quent and effective address was made by a distinguished member oftlic bar, a cliiircli- man from Newark, N. J., and another from an eminent rector of one oftlie churches in, l’liiludclphia.

The meeting, and all the cii-ciiinstnnccs connected with it, have quite stirred up our quiet town. It was decidedly the most iii- teresting, aiid we trust it will prove to be the most important and useful iiiiiiiversary that has been held here for years.

Tue Returns of the Revenue for the ‘quarter ending on the ﬁlth of the last month, sﬂ'ord a gratifying indication of an increasing ﬁnancial prosperity, even under the dark shadow of war; and atford the promise ofa much greater improvement when that shadow shall have fairly passed away. Amidst some fluctuations in the different items, the rule of expansion still obtains on the total results, the aggregate showing a net increase of £422,052 on the quarter, and £4,101,620 on the twelve- moiitli, as compared with the returns for the similar periods in 1855. '[‘lie experi- ence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer thus tallies most agreeably with the tenor , of successive reports from the Board of Trade, as well as with the accounts trans- mitted t'rom every centre of industry and production. Every symptom coiiibines to prove that the well-being of the country rests upon a basis too sound to be shaken by the oscillations either of war or peace. t has been very justly remarked, that tlie trial which our national resources and in- iistrial machinery have undergone during tlie last three months has been, in point of act, as severe as any that occurred during the period that the war was at its height. Nor is the proof it has afforded of vigour and substantiality less important. On for- mer occasions we liave, indeed, found that the transition to a state of peace was fraught with more peril and distress-gave a greater shock to industry, and tended to a worse dislocation of einploymcnt—than the previous change from peace into it state ofhostilities. 'l‘be reasonis obvious. War, especially at the tirst outbreak, opens more channels for activity that it can close. The overniiient spends lavishly at home and abroad. Miiltitudca are engaged to fight, or to provide stores and supplies for tho tigliti.-rs. Labour is scarce, waigcs are high, money circulates, and llrici-s rise on every side. The memory of “ wn r prices," and the dcliisive prosperity which they oc- casioned, linger still in many parts of the country, accoinpanietl by painful recollec- tions of subsequent collapse and min, when the stimulus ofu. vust. military expernlitiiro and incessant loans was once ivitlidrawii '[‘liroiigli ii similar ordeal the Cl)llllll‘_\' has now passed with perfect safety, and almost without perceptible change. There llﬂti been no glut of labour, no disturlitiiicc Ol industry, and no scarcity of capital. The retrcnclimciits necessary upon the conclu- sion of peace are being effected without causing any disastrous iiiutatioiis in the re- lative position ofeiiiployor and employed ; while the payment ofour war liabilities has been provided for without eitlicr burilt-ning the productive energies oftho countr_v, or absoi-liing that circulating medium which is the lifc-blood of its coriiiiicrcc. Alike in resuming our peaceful occupations, and in originally arming ourselves tlir the conflict. we have sliowii, that the terrible epis-ale of war has pi-oiliicoil no .~'(.‘I'l0ltS distiii-liiiiiec, and left no visible exhaustion in the mighty resources ofour empire.
