SCOTLAND.

The "manifestations of the spirit" in Edinburgh continue. An elder of one of the churches called upon his minister a few days ago, and informed him that he felt himself under the influence of the Spirit, and that he should certainly speak out in church if he was called upon to do so. The clergyman told him, that be would permit no such in- terruptions of public worship ; and the elder consequently resigned his office in the church. Mr. Tait, the minister of the church in which, as we mentioned in last week's Spectator, Mr. Carlyle, the Advocate, annoyed the congregation by his cries and gesticulations, has been heard in his defence before the Assembly. He considers the cries uttered by Mr. Carlyle as manifestations of the Spirit, and as signifying that Antichrist is now on earth consummating the mystery of iniquity. These cries, it seems, though new to the assembled congregation, have been heard repeatedly before at prayer-meetings in the Vestry.

The Assembly expressed their high disapprobation of the irregulari- ties which had taken place in Mr. 'fait's church, and "remitted to the Presbytery of Edinburgh to proceed in this important matter according to the rules of the Church, with all wisdom, prudence, and tenderness, as they should see to be for edification ;" and further decreed, that the decision of the Presbytery on the subject should be final, notwithstand- ing any appeal against it.
