THE HIGH CHURCH CLERGY AND THE LAITY.
Sin—I am informed on unquestionable authority, that the select preacher before the University of Cambridge last Sunday mentioned as a grievance that must be remedied, that laymen are allowed to call themselves and to act as members of the Church of England who do not believe the Thirty-nine Arti- cles and the Creeds—the formula that passes under the pseudonym of Atha- nasius being one of them. I beg to call the attention of liberals whose sym- pathies are with the High Church party to this significant fact. And let them couple with it the equally significant fact, that Mr. G. A. Denison protested against Convocation pledging itself to revise its constitution, to ad- mit a representation of the lay members of the Church.
Yours respectfully, M. A.
