Let my disclaiming of a purposed evil Free me so far in your most generous thoughts, That I have shot mine arrow o’er the house And hurt my brother.— In which light, as a Clergyman of the Church of England, I hope long to have the opportunity to consider you, believing as I do, that your scruples, though the creations of a _conscientious_ mind, are more imaginary than substantial—and with this persuasion and in that hope, I beg to subscribe myself, Very faithfully yours, CHAS.

They are the authors of a pamphlet, entitled “Observations on a Petition, (the Petition of last Session), for the Revision of the Liturgy, &c. written by two brothers, a Clergyman and a Layman.” These brothers, by the impetuosity of their onslaught, are said to be distinguished amongst the petitioners as the CASTOR and POLLUX of their little phalanx. And as there are in their pamphlet some things which might render questionable the logical acumen of the one, and tend to cast a shadow of suspicion on the orthodoxy of the other—they have acquired credit for no indifferent tact in putting forth this SIAMESE sort of production, inasmuch as to any sentiment which might not be thought creditable to the divine; the barrister is ready with fraternal consideration to assert his claim,—“MEUS HIC sermo est,” and that which might not be highly esteemed for its soundness in the learned and honourable society of Lincoln’s Inn; the divine with reciprocal affection is at hand, to exclaim—“Adsum qui feci”—in short, the Barrister will be responsible for the divinity, and the Divine for the points of law. Diligat et semper socius te sanguinis illo Quo pius affectu Castora frater amat. {22a} p. 113. {22b} p. 107. {24a} Bishop of Norwich Pamph. p. 18. {24b} Sparrow’s Collection, &c. p. 12. {25a} Bp. of Norwich’s Pamph. p. 18. {25b} Hart’s Eccl.
