The Supremacy Question. An Essay. By the Rev. G. E.

Biber, LL.D.

(Rivingtons.)—Dr. Biber is the champion of the Apostolical succession, and the episcopal supremacy that he derives from it. In the present essay he reviews the judgment of the Privy Council in the Colenso case, and congratulates the Church of south Africa on her release from the State fetters. He then exposes what he calls the Imperial or Royal, Papal, and popular or House-of-Commons usurpations, and concludes with the expression of a hope that at no distant period the Church of England will be left to the management of her Bishops, who shall be freely ohoaen by the clergy, and be unrestrained in the pleasures of the chase of heretics.
