 •• (iorrronient d«ollne<i cominltflnp (ha apparent in-

 •paraliou, as declininj; all inHueiice in the disiiihutioii or 
 application of (he funds for religion or education, thus 
 laaTing no field for partiality on the part of Govern 
 mtnt — and therefore no ground lor suspicion of it. 
 
 Tha manageinent of the system (>t»y for Churches ami 
 Common Schools) should be thrown altogetliei' on the 
 axecutive!) of the different churches (lar^e Sfcl<) pointed 
 out by the people each year as those to ir hich the// 
 belong, and in which thfy have confidence — many 
 grounds of quarrel would in this way be jfot n nit of— 
 difliculties would atall events be cotitined to llic bosiom^ 
 of the particular churches— danger to the slate, from 
 •ne body of christians coming: into collision with aii- 
 cther would be done away — and supposing that the 
 doctrines of any one body are pernicion-<, you counter- 
 act its influence in the best way, and applying; in the 
 encouragement to att to do good a gentle remedy, you 
 are much more likely in the end to purge out its venom, 
 than when in addition to the task of exposing the error 
 of its system and showing bow it had gralted itself on 
 almple instilution of Christianity— and how the passions 
 and understandings of men might get disentanuled from 
 i(, you had also to contend with the formidable circum 
 stance of its being a persecuted or pampered Churc\. 
 On government quitting its bold of the Clergy Ueiterveit 
 and binding ittielf lo Itt all large bodies' of Chris- 
 iiUHH thare in the proceed* of ihem, it would be cul- 
 pable in not insisting on the people being also 
 bound hy a provincial act, sanctioned and made perma- 
 nent by the Imperial Legislature, to give a certain 
 support to tome one body of Christians, it being 
 however left to each person in his individual capacity, 
 and every year on paying the tax, to .say to the support 
 of which denuminatiou bis contribution is lo be ap- 
 plied. The principle laid down is coinpnisory payment 
 and voluntary application. The (Jhiireh fund will pro- 
 Tide for half the salaries of .Ministers, but to determine 
 iiki* half, the people's half has to be first got at.'! 
 This assessment or security against the unworthy being 
 provided for, is demanded for the following reasons: — 
 
 Fir«<.— Because Government decline allowing a 
 provision for any clergyman which will make him inde- 
 yemdeni oj his people nUo^tther, while it (tlie(iovern- 
 ment) considers tbai the proper independence of eta ed- 
 (ica(ed clergy, and the inability of the people them- 
 tselvesgboth point out the ii' cessity of some support. 
 
 Seeond. — Goverument considers that the good wiiich 
 any body of ehristian8,ari' not only willing but able to 
 do« IS (be best proof of the extent to which they ought 
 lo be supported. 
 
 Tkfrd,—CovTomtnt considers that an a!<te)>nnent,

 I'arliairciit fuiiject only to Iw altered in t e -i.ime way
