At the special meeting of the Commission of Assembly of
the Scottish Church, on Wednesday, a string of resolutions was passed, reasserting the policy which the majority in the Assembly have pursued, but closing with one which is curious in its determinations : the Commission re- solve to seek a conference with the minority who protested against their proceedings at the previous meeting, to try to induce them to recon- sider their present position ; and besides " to take measures for bringing the principles and privileges of this Church, as well as the dangers which may threaten her, before the Government, the Legislature, and the country at large, by deputations, public statements, meetings, and such other methods as may appear expedient." A Committee was ap- pointed to carry these resolutions into effect.
