We are indebted to the Presbyterian Witness of the 10th inst } recently placed in our hands, for the following report of part | of the proc vedings of the Synod of the Established Church of Scotland in Nova Scotia, held in this City on the 30th June last.

The political portion of the Circular had been printed in italics, yes—in itadics, by that periodical.

The Alliance, he . ‘at a ah Scotia—men who would go and who did gdto a Catiolic Church to Worship. Wein Nova Scotia are quite awake. What I am sorry for is that any clergy:san of our Church should be connected with the Alliance. | Mr. McKay, of Belfast, would regret anything thei would cause additional coolness between ministers of this church and the ministers of other Protestant bodies. But it is clear that we are growing too back- | ward in our missionary spirit—let us have Missions to Papists. - - growing suspicious of our Protestant Combination of this a : commenced with a view to promote Missions to Romanists, bat 2 bave heard nothing of such missions, and the combination is now entirely political, If tho Protestant Alliance is what it has been represented, it ought to disown forever what is past, and start anew. ' Colonel Gray said that he had been a member and an officer of the Combination, but thut wher he found that it was to be entirely political he withdrew bis name. When he saw in the Protector a series of | Questions to be proposed to Candidates at the General Election, he withdrew from (se Combination. He was for religious operations among the Romanists, 10d not for opposing them politically. The sooner the past was forgotten the better. He regretted extremoly the ill-feeling that had been created among the Romanists by these Combinations and Alliances. Mr. Locuuea> was very far from approving of what had been spoken by previous speakers. In short it was nonsense. We must use such means as are necessary to counteract Popery. Don't be afraid of making Papizts l:ate you. Taey are taught from the eradle to hate | everything Prot» stant. The Combination in P. BE. Island was formed to protect the Bible from pablic insult. It was to counteract the wily tchemes of a Jesuit Bishop—it was to resist a most dangerous and eruel tie, who was determined to snatch the bread of life out of our children’s hands. He hoped this Court, as it prized the privileges bought by the | best blood of our forefathers, would not now play into the hands of | Jesuits condem ing Protestant Alliances and Combinations. * Our principles are be{ore the world. We have combined in self-defence, to secure civil and religious liberty for ourselves and our children, and by the help of God we will sageeed. The basis of the Halifax Alliance is esseatially the sone as that of the Cuarlottetown C ynbination. Condemn the one you conlemn the other. Both were ealled into existence to resist the same juflaence—afi influence that was set in motion In the Vatican, and wh ch extends wiierever Popery has a f. rothoid, and waien seeks to promote in Christian lands all that is dishonourable, aa i ernel and foul. It would certainly come with bad grace from this Synod to turow cold wat -r on the Protestant Alliance. As Svotchmen, as Presbyterian :, as Christians, something better 1s to be expected from us I, therefore, moe that this Synod cordially sympathise with those who aociate themse ves together to resist the machinations of Popsry, and to protect the dearest iaterests, civil ani religious, of our Protestant country, and tat the Synod express its willingness to co-operate with a their good work.

I |} understand, what perhaps my younger brethren do not, the crafty, | cruc 1, designing nature of Popery, and therefore I have ever been con- vinced that it requires the united energy of Protestantism to cope with /it. When I conducted the Guardian the Hon. W.

And he never did. The Liberals laughed at me then, but they were not long in finding out that | t was right and that they were wrong. They fouod the Catholics so | arrogant and exacting that they had to throw them off and fight against them, dt is utterly false and mistaken to say that the Bible was not in danger in Nova Scotia. Did you ever hear of the Bishops’ Pastoral ! Do you not know that the dignitaries of the Papal Church thundered their blasphemous anathetnag against the Bible, which by our constitu- tion is to be readin every Church in the Empire? Were we not | insulted in the grossest manner that a people could be insulted? Men | are bitoder than bats if with these facts before them they say that there | Was no attack made on the Bibie. I maintain that Mr. Johnston was | guilty of a neglect of duty in not prosecuting Archbishop Walsh for Blasphemy. Tue Roman Catholies in Nova Scotia are sly—are cunning. | They are few in number compared with the rest of the population, and it is their policy to make Protestants fight against each | other till they are mutually weakened and ruined. I beLonG To THE | Protesvanr Aturance. I belong to no political party. I ain heartily sick of politicians. They say that Mr. Johnston is a Conservative. Mr. | Johnston is not a Conservative. A man who has advocated an Elective ' Legis!ative Council and universal suffrage is not a trae Conservative. } A man wa Jike Mr. Johnston leagues himself to Popery is not a Con- | servative. Tam, and have always been, a true Conservative, for I have | resisted popery and will resist it. Popery is destructive and not Con- servative, and those who join with Romanists are not Conservatives but Destructives. The Protestant Alliance of Halifax to which I belong has precisely the same basis with the English Alliance, at whose head st distinguished Christian aud philanthropist, Lord Shaftesbury. Its bject ig to eontend for the faith once delivered to the saints. originated to resist the machinations of the Priests—machinations which i : | were set at work in the Vatican at Rome a few years ago, and which w specially directed against Protestant Schools and Bibles. ands the It was whe Archbish p Walsh returned from his last visit to Rome that these labours were set on foot. f understand them ! A member of Mr. J bnston’s Government had said in his place on th joors of the Flouse that the Liberals and Mr. Young bad not given tl Vatkoites fair y, that they were a proscribed sect, and that Mr i Johnston’s government was determined to pursue u better course, to give the Catbolics a fair share of the offices and emclaments of the coumiry. This being so, I wu , not formed a day too sooh dastardly spirit that is afraid to join in a muvement, because that | movement may be misunderst od, or because its promoters may beeowe the objects of hatred and persecution.

But the two are as distinct as | possible. : The Moderator spoke at various times (without leaving the chair) Ie took up the basis of the Alliance, and the Circular, and spoke |sneeringly of the style in which they were written; he read some | sentences, and said that there was an attempt at a philosophical style by a man who understood nothing of philosophy. He laid particular emphasis on the fact, thata part of the Circular had been printed in italics in the Registrer (Instructor) of the Secession body, these italics showed that it was political. He also called attention to the fact that missionary operations were mentioned merely as a possthle contingyncy. | Mr. HerpMan suggested tuat * fear’? should be put ia the Resolution | instead of * feel.” Mr. Mair, Mr. McRae, and the Moderator, showed how unreasonable with us. Secession. | jtalice were not in court, but the speakers assured Mr. Herdman that they had seen them; aud Mr. McRae read again the very sentences | that had been printed in ztalics. | Yhe motion was then agreed to by the Synod. (In the above account of the discussion relating to the Protestant Alliance, I have, to the best of my power, given the ipstssizma verba of sach sneaker. I have attempted to give the spirit where I could not give the letter, and the outline, so far as it goes, is faith !--though of course all that wes said is not and could not be given. I have no doubt i the Witness will be glad to be corrected.) | The Synod then agreed to recommend to all their Sabbath Schools ' to contribute cordially to the Indian Orphanage Scheme of the parent | Church. This is a sch@Me that is the means of doing much good. An | Indian Orphan is supported in a suitable educational establishment for labout £5 sterling per annum. It was thought that almost any of the Sabbath Schools would afford to raise this sum. Fripay, July 2. | This morning the Synod was engaged for a considerable portion of its first sitting in discussing the case ot the Rev. Mr. McLauen, a missionary who was sent out last fall by the Colonial Committee of the Established Church, to labor in P. K. Island. The case was drought up by reference, by the Presbytery of P. E. Island. It was discussed | with closed doors; I have therefore no more to say on the subject. It was moved by Mr. Nicuont, and seconded by Col. Gray, that an } Address of congratulation and respect be presented by this Synod to! Sir Dominie Daly, Lieutenant Governor of this Islond. It was moved presented. After a lively and interesting discussion the Synod divided, when there appeared, for the amendment six; for the motion, siz. The foderator then gave his casting vote for the motion. The Address | was thus carried; but after deliberation, the Synod very judiciously | resolved to let the matter drop, and not to present any Address since | that could not be be done except by the casting vote of the Moderator. The wisdom of this decision will be seen when it is remembered that Sir Dominick Daly is a Papi-t, and that he was ‘‘sort of smuggled” into being a Representative of a Protestant Sovereign and the Governor of a Protestant Colony. It would be very odd indeed to see a body of ‘resbyterian ministers and elders presenting an address to such a man —particularly as it is well known that he is heart and hand in the | Antibitlieal cause of the present P. E. Island government. I am sure that the readers of the Witness will joia with mein congratilating the Synod on its Jast determination. sce Alea at IRISH SOCIETY PICNIC. The “ Benevolent Irish Society” entertained themselves and over three hundred guests, at a Pienic on Moaday last, which did infinite credit to those persons to whom was en- trusted its management. About half-past eight o'clock, a. m., the office-bearers of the Society, preceded by. their beaati- ful banuer and Mr. Lobban’s Amateur Band, leit the Society’s Room, and proceeded on board Mr. Bourke’s steamer Ino, which was tastefully decorated with flags, and stationed at the Queen’s Wharf to receive the party.

The intelligence brought by the Bombay mail is more ‘important than any that has recently arrived from India. The capture of Calpee by Sir Hagh Rose, and the dispersion of the Gwalior Contingent, cannot fail to have a powerful effect on the future fortunes of the war, if war it can now be called, The Gwalior Contingent, originally numbering about fiftcea thousand men, and afterwards augmented to twenty-five thousand, had all the erganisation ofa regular army. It was composed of cavalry and infantry with a powerful artillery, and the men were am ugst the best native iroops in India.
