THE APOSTLES' CREED. ough: TO THE EDITOR OF THE GUARDIAj. seri SIR '-I enclose a few words on the Apostles Crt Jivia lately written by Mr Pulsfo^d, a Dissenting rinistruon I would wish particularly to draw the attention f sorutCj bigoted members of school boards to Mr Puifordesti dissertation by inserting which, you will greatlyibligVat your obedient servant, SL Caerwye, Oct. Sth, 18í5. j I BELIEVE IN GOD THE FATHER. &c. c: Whether the Apostles drew up this Creed or not, ever.one tj must feel that it eminently deserves its title. It certaiiy is their Creed that is, it «'xpresxes the sum and substac- of the Apostolic writings. It is our Christian religion, gen and presented in 19 short sentences of very plain words, .is most wisely concise and simple and yet, as a skeleton of w Testament theology, full ault complete. It is the more toe admired, that it expresses no man's opinion, it gives no ma's explanation. It simply records the facts of our religic, without either accounting for them, or deciding in what pa ticular manner they shall be held. Account for the facts I ¡ you will, explain them as you will, draw what inferences froi them you like—these are tlie facts, and they may be provei by most certain warrants of Holy Scripture.' Upon the basi: of these facts you can build a Roman Church, a Greek Church, or a Reformed Church; a National Church, or a Dissenting Church a gorgeous artistic church, or a rude tastehss church a church with its symbolic form and its expressive rimal, enlisting the senses as well as the soul, or a church distaining and offending the senses, having neither symbol nor signifl- gance; but these are the facts. As all Christians believe these facts. it would be a notable sign of the fundamental unity of the Church, if every congregation throughout the world, would, as often as they meet together, stand up, and declare aloud, before God, before Angel", before all men, and before devils, their personal faith in this ancient, com- prehensive, and precious Creed. Such an utterance of | the Christian world, with one accord, and from the soul, could not Jltil to attract the sympathy pf Heaven, of its innu- merable Angels, and the spirits of just men made perfect. Nor could it fail to abash hell, and its powers of darkness."— From PIlI.fmr8 Quiet Hours. j

CHURCH PRINCIPLES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE GUARDIAN. SIR,—Ap Howell's disinclination to meet the absurd- ities of the bellicose Rector of Bodvari in the field of con- tontroversy affords me the opportunity of proving the assertions I made some months ago in your colmXI as re- pectiug the teaching of the Prayer Book of the Reformed Church of England. I then aeserted that our Prayer Book teaches the doctrine tf the Real Presence, Baptismal Regeneration, Auricular Confession, and prayers for the dead, and 1 challenged "'T.BXl.B. at the same time to prove to the contrary. He has, as your readers are aware, never attempted any such thing, but, on the contrary, after indulging in some personalities, he candidly confessed having sustained a signal defeat at the hands of his Catholic assailant." Nearly six months have elapsed since then, and we had good hopes the rev. gentleman had taken the advice so kindly tendered by Ap Howell— to read for himself instead of writing to the papers—bit we were mistaken. His tereceoeej having regained his J former strength, railed his feeble voice once more against i. 1' P.ro8Tess Church Principles." In his last letter he finds fuult with certain hymnals for containing the doctrine of the Real Presence, the Sacrifice, and Adora- tion. It must be noted that T.B.LI.B." quotes no authority whatever to support his assertions; the Prayer Book, the Fathers, and the Holy Scriptures are laid aside to make room for the opinion of a. clergyman, whose onlv claim to our consideration is his profound ignorance of Church Principles, and irreverence and slovenliness in the manner of conducting Divine service. It is my intention, with your kind permission, to prove to your readers how utterly mistaken is the rector of Bodfari in his opinion of the Ritualists and their teaching, not that I have any hopes of his conversion, but lest any of your weaker readers should run away with an idea that the rector is right. From the Prayer Book wo gather the following: The Body and Blood' of Christ which are verily and -indeed taken," &c. (Catechism.) "The most comfortable bacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ." '-Fcr then we are guilty of the Body and Blood of Christ our Savour; we eat and drink our own damnation not con- sidenng: the Lord's Body." "Grant us therefore so to eat the flesn of thy dear Son Jesus Christ and to drink his blood." (Before Communion.) The Body of our Loid jesus Christ," &c., I- The Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, &c. (At Communion.) The Real Presence i e not the" Corporeal," but the real and essential presence rests entirely on the words of our Blessed Lord. At the Consecration of the bread and wine when the priest takes the bread and blesses it, and breaks if, saying This is my Body," and in the same manner with the cup, saying, "This is my Blood," a mighty change passes over the elements, not in their nature and properties, be it remembered, for they are still bread and wine, but in their powers and use. We believe that the Holy Ghost descends from heaven upon the Consecrated elements and makes the bread the Bodv of Christ, and the wine the Blood of Christ. In this belief vve are supported by the language of the ancient liturgies, neither is their any doubt as to its being the belief of the I rimitive Church. St. Justin Martin, a disciple of the Apostles, in giving an account of the Christian worship to the Emperor, says We do not receive it as common bread and common drink, but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made ficsh and bioo? for our salvation, so like wise have we been taught that the food which has been blessed by the prayer of His Word (and from which food our flrsh and blood, by assimilation, are nourished) is the flesh and blood of the incarnate Jesus. For the Apostles in the records composed by them, which are called Gospels, have thus delivered unto us what was enjoined upon them that. Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks said, "Do this in remem- brance of Me, This is My Body. and after the same manner, having taken the cup and given thanks, He said, 11 This is My Blood" (Apol. i. CO)." Multitudes of tne pas, ages in proof of this assertion could be quoted from hers, who knew nothing of transubstanti ition, which was a scholastic attelUptuin the middle ages to exrlain I a profound mysrery. That the Reformers believed in the Real Presence I need quote only the Protestant Bishop Jewel. In his celebrated apology of the Church of Kngland, which T. B. Ll. B." probablv knows something about, we find the following »For we affirm that Chnst doth truly and nresently give His own self in Hi, Sacranieuts in Baptism that we may put him on; and in His Supper, that we may eat Him oy faith and spirit, and may have everlasting life by His Cioss and Blood. And we say not, this is done slightly and coldly, but effectually aHd truly. For although we do not touch the body of Christ with teeth and mouth yet we hold Him fast and eat Him by faith, by under- s.anding^ and V the Spirit And Augustine s.'ith, How shall I hold Hira which is absent ? How shall I reach my hand up to Heaven, to lay hold upon ¡ Hioa that sitteth there ?' He answereth, 1 Reach hither s.'ith, How shall I hold Hira which is absent ? How shall I reach my hand up to Heaven, to lay hold upon Hioa tiiat sitteth there ?' He answereth, 1 Reach hither thy faith, and then thou hast laid hold on Him 5 \\heatley m his "Rational illustration of the Book'of ^omtnon rrayer, on this subject says, "For a real Presence of the Body and Biood of Christ in the Eucharist is what our C lurch frequently asserts in this very office of Communion, in her Articles, in her Homilies, and her Catechism, particularly in the two latter, in the first of which she tellli us, 'Thus much we must be sure to hold that in the Supper of the Lord there is no v un ceremony no bare sign, no untrue figure of a thing absent-but the Communion of the Body and Blood of the Lord in a marvellous incorporation, wbieb, by the operation of the flo,lv Ghost, is through faith wrought in the souls of the faithful, &c. (first part of the Homily concerning the Sacrament), who, therefore (as she further instructs us in the Catechism) vonly and indeed take and receive the Body and Blood of Christ m the Lord's Supper. This is the doctrine ot our Church m relation to the Rjal Presence m tb« Sacrament, entirely different from the doctrine of transuInstantiation, which she here, as well es elsewhere disclaims, &c. Such is the belief of Wheatley and such is the belief of Mr Bennett. Mr Mackonochie and every true and faithful priest in the Andean Branch of the Church Catholic. I do not wish to be hard uron the rector of Bodfari, but it appe.,irs from his ettusions ia the newspapers that his knowledge of the riayer Book is very limited indeed. in my next letter I shall speak of the sacrifice offered by the priest in the Holy Eucharist and the Adoration due to the presence of our Lord. -I am, sir, yours. &c Oct. 12th, 1875.

THE WYNNSTAY CHAPEL PARLIAMENTARY EVIDENCE.

Wyun's. private chapel. I was satisfied with th.s"ex- planation; so much so, that I never sent for the published report, kLowing that I had agreed to everything, in ltitrence to Sir Watkm's private chapel, that any in- cumbent could be expected to agree to. I was quite suipi.sed, however, to see what the evidence actually was, when I saw it last week for the fhvt time. Bur even now I should have preferred taking no notice of it, ?ris,n in/T'l m th,° l0Cal paPei'3 that hav* rurally arisen out of it m reference to mvself.

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF WALES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE GUARDIAN. SIR,- With your permission I should like to make a few observations upon some of the points adverted toby your correspondent « Gwiadgarwr," in the Guardian of October 9:h, upon the subject of the College founded at Aberystwj th. If this College should be the means of inducing young Welshmen to abstain from going to Oxford or Cambridge or some Foreign University, when th,:y h.,d the of doing w, and to content themselves with Aberyst wyth as a substitute, I, for one, should agiee with your correspondent in thinking such a result one much to be deplored in the interests of Wales so far, however as I understand the objects of the founders, it is neither their intention nor wish that the College should enter into rivalry or competition with the ancient universities still less with foreign institutions, but h uld satisfy a want which Oxfoid and Cambridge aie believed not to meet and should suppiement and even feed these great centres of learning rather than rival them. & the inevitable result of the ordinary habits of life and the amusements of the great majority of the youths who are sent to our great universities J" that the College life has a tendency to become very expensive in spite of every precaution taken to prevent k: and this txpensiveness tends rather to increase than diminish with the increas- iug wealth of the country now the evil consequences of sending young men to such places witli means very inferior to those of their fellows with whom they will constantly associate, are unfortunately too well known the ability to practise close economy under such condi- tions is a rare gift, aud a large number of iJiexperienced and ordinary yourg men finding themselves, perhaps for the first time, in the position of being their own masters, fail in the trial. Here it is that such colleges, as that at Abervstwyth come in, and I believe that they are calculated to prove, not only a real benefit to a large number of yeung men within their reach, but that hereafter tlIey nay, by a judic;ous management of existing endowments, be turned to good account by the old universities. This naturally brings ine to another point. Some persons seem to me to be under the impression that since the Abolition of Tests, the use and benefit of the vast educational endowments of Oxford and Cambrid"-e "re enjoyed equally by all htr Majesty's subject*" who choose to go to the old universities, without favour or distinction ef religious tests; this is an entire mistake which a single glance at tne recent report (1875) of the Royal Commissioners will dispel in a moment This report will no doubt be made the subject of discussion in tne next session of Parliament, and attempts will he made to introduce extensive reforms in the direction of nationalising these great endowments, in which everv college and school of higher education will be deenlv interested. In touching upon the question of the effect which such an institution as the Aberystwyth College is likely to have upon the interests of the Established Church, your correspondent concludes that this will be an injurious one, but He adduces no argument in support of this view, and the,only reason which he mentions for his opinion reminds me of the recent language of the Austrian protectionist who thinks that it is a sufficient and conclusive argument against general free trade in Europe, to point out that England is strongly in favour of such a policy. The truth is, that the Aberystwyth College is not a theological or religious institution at all and it is no nl9 more opposed to the Church of England than-the ?g £ °r ltic7Uopl1 Academ-V< cr the Public Baths and Wash-houses Company are. Nonconformists naturally nail such an institution with jov chiefly because it is to all intents and purposes open freelv anrl T!iy, towuhout rffcri-g L privilege craSbge t0 'he Chu! ch 01 ^ngiand or any religions denomi- mition Nor is it- in any sense opposed to the interests of tne Established Church further than in not offerns to its members any preference or privilege over the members ot other denominations. The Cohege, however, does undoubtedly appear to me to be a step in the direction of the emancipation of education from clerical control, and in this respect it is in direct opposition to one of the dearest traditions of the Koman Catnolic Church, and to the opinions of a considerable section of the Church of England; your correspondent may also be or tins way of thinkwg, in which case he is of course consistent in his opposition, because if such colleges as this are successfully founded in different parts of the kingdom, and the great educational endowments of Oxford and Cambridge are placed upon a broad national basis without distinction of religious creeds, then the issue of that deep but silent struggle which is goino- on between the clerical and secular parties in relation to education will be no longer doubtful. I venture to express the opinion that those who are in favour of the predominating clerical contrd over public education ought to oppose the University College of Wales with all their might; whilst those who would wish to see the secular arm prevail, ought to give it their hearty support.—Your obedient servant, PI n rw T — WATKIN WILLIAMS.

THE LATE ACCIDENT AT GATE WEN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE GUARDIAN. —Your leader of last week with regard to the recent, accident at Gateweu Colliery does not contain, as might have been expected, an apology for t he remarks contained in the paragraph which appeared in your paper of the J5th ult., which remarks you admit were ceuaml> injudicious,' and which Drobably any one else woutd call highly improper. The evidence given at the inquest did not ia tlie least tend to support these [etnarks, with perhaps the exception of what was stated °u?e v !ess utended to slip v that fchewiuch was insufficiently weighted. This statement was made in answer to a leading question, and in contradiction to all previous evidence after the jury had him ;eliberating for some time, and when there was no opportunity of cross-examination by calling further evidence to refute the statement. You refer to evidence which might have been given by an "independent gentleman" passing at the time; but whoever lie may have been he docs net seem to have thought it necessary to attend the inquiry. Neither the coroner nor myself were aware that such a witness was available though in your leaaer you seem to infer differently I may say that Mr N. It. Griffith, of the Vron Colliery who was passing a few; minutes before the accident, has since told me that so far as he observed them the pre- parations for unloading the boiler were satisfactory and Her Majesty s Inspector of Alines did not see any reason to find fault with any of the arrangements. I may add that the coroner fully concurred in the rc. marks I made on the paragraph in your paper of the 7,oUl ult- 1 ,trust you will yet see fit to apologise for the paragraph in question, and for the leaded last Saturday.-I am, yours respectfufly. WILIIIAJI GRIFFITHS. [We asked Mr Griffiths to point out in what respect our report of the accident was "false,' as he alleged He has, however, evaded the question. He simply contends that a witness was in error in slating that the winch was msuiliciently weightedbut the jury seemed to accept this statement, for they found that the deceased met his death through the winch not being sufficiently weighted." Mr Griffiths impugns the decision oi the twelve jurymen; hence the necessity for additional witnesses being called. As to the 'independent" eye-witness who was not called, all we can say is that he offered himself to the police -the proper parties-but was not asked to attend. Why was this? We see no reason to offer Mr Griffiths any apology.]D.j

One auspicious incident of a strange character, in con- nection with the Prince's voyage, may be circumstance which our Hindoo fellow-subjects will it appears, regard as a most favourable omen. The cow'on board the Serapis, on the day that ship left her moor- ings, gave birth to two fine calves. It is stated by the Dublin papers that the charred fragments of the body of the murdered woman. Honona Quilter, have been refused Christian burial by the people in Kerry, on the ground that an excommunication pro- nounced against her bad not been removed, and that -he was a relative of the Fenian informer Corvdon. The police have been ordered to see to the interment. An orphanage m the village of Essendon, about five miles from the county town of Hereford, has been de. stroyed by fire. In the establishment, which had existed a comparatively short time, between 40 a:d 50 young lads were fed, clothed, and educated, aud fortun- ately they were rescued from the burning buildm- without receiving any injury. & A dreadful accident happened on Monday at the Canton Pits, Moira, Leicestershire. A number of miners were ascending the shaft in a cage, and when at the top the cage, from some cause at present uuexDiainee was not brought to a standstill, but was drawn oVer the top wheel, four of the occupants being killed and two seriously injured. The bodies of the dead were removed to a neighbouring public-house to await the inquest. Dr. Kenealy attempted to deliver his Magna Charta lecture in the Victoria Hall, Sunderland, on Tuesday eveinug, but a band of young gentlemen and rough's would not allow him to speak. A series of fights en- sued, one man being seriously injured. In the end the platform was taken possession of bv the roughs. Dr Keneaiy fled, ani a stump oration was being delivered by an hotel keeper, when the gas was put down and a stampede ensued. An application was made to the Board of Guardians of the Isle of Sheppey to allow the hymns of Messrs Moody and Sankey to be introduced in an entertainment which it was proposed to give the paupers. The matter being referred to the chaplain, he refused hia sanction and, on a subsequent discussion by the guardians, the numbers for and against granting permission were equal. The Ghai: man's casting vote, however, àcided the question on the prohibitory side. Mr Ahmed liensalv, son of Dr Ivenealv, was sum- moned by a bidsticker before the Hartlepool countv court for the recovery of X7, the cost of bill posmw during the recent election for the Hartlepools. it was represented for the defence that the agent of the candi- date was the person who should have been proceeded against. Dr Keneaiy was the ageAt for his son, but, as there was 110 advertisement of the fact, aud has no notice had been given of any such agency to the plaintiff the 1 judge took tims to look into the Act of Parliament 'and adjourned the case. The Norfolk Chamber of Commerce, on Saturdav, re3olv d that the time had arrived when a more stringent administration of the poor law in the matter of out-doo>- reli-f should be adhered to. Earl JLmberley and Mr tiead, secretary to the Local Government Board con- tended tha^ as the wages of the labouring classe's hud been considerably increased, they should be compelled to contribute more to the support of their destitute relatives than hitherto, and an effort should bo made to reduce workhouse expenses. Mr Cross, tie Home Secretary has requested the Local Government Board to procure from the different boards of guardians a return of th»3 parishes in their respective unions in which the Free Libraries Act hrsbeen adopted, with the names of the members of the several boards of commissioners who have been appointed to carry out the act, there being no official record of the saiiia. The Home Secretary's circular intimates that this is a pre- liminary to procuring from the manag es of the free libraries further information as to their operation and success. Mr Jchn Stubbs, a stockbroker, carrying on business in Sweeting-street, Liverpool, committed suicide on Saturday, under circumstances of a singularly uainful character. About two months ago the deceased gentle- man married a young lady considerably his juuior. He appears to have previously suffered from illness and a consequent mental depression, but returned from his wedding tour in an apparently improved state of health. On Saturday he seemed to be in good spirits, and went to the cricket ground to witness some athletic sports, but in the evening he shot himself dead with a revolver at his private residence. Much loss of life and great destruction to property was caused by heavy floods, resulting from the exceptional rainfall on Saturday. Districts in Central Warwickshire and Leicestershire, and Nuneaton, Banburv. and Bicester have all suffered. Acres of meadow land have been submerged, houses have been flooded, cattle have been swept away and drowned, and in some places the roads are said to be impassable to foot passengers.

The up- ward tendency of priecs has, however, continued, many markets being Is deaier. and others Is to The iluur trade of Paris has further improved 1 frauc, and wheat has brought rather more money, with, however, doii)g. Se%-eral pro- vincial markets have also risen Gd to 2s., though more gene. i-aily they have been only iirm. The last weekly sales were 12,880 quarters Ies in wil at than in 1S74.

In New York, with a reputed deficiency of 21 per cent., the market ro e 5 will-, or 20d per quarter, but they have since lost Is of the advance. At Odessa, with a stock three times as large, holders maintain their high rates. As quality is low, and almost 8s uuder average imports, the produce ought to be ample to make such suipments pay."

Addressing a mas- meeting of colliers at Poatvpool, Mr Macdonald, after defining what unionism meant, traced the changes wnich it; had brought about within the iast thirty years. The labour of women and children had been grappled with, better provision had been made for health ana protec- tion of life during working hours, th laws relating to employers aud employed had been amenned, and the educa- tional standing of the miner was higher than for!i,,t Macdonald has tendered his resignation us a member"of the South Wales Conciliation Board, in consequence of Mr Vivian retiring from the position of a representative of the coal owners.

5ZTijc CPtjuiffj Dr M'Neile has resigned the deanery of Ripon. He has been led to take this step by his great age (he is 80) and rapidly failing health. The death of the Bishop of Brechin deprives the Episcopal Church of Scotland not only of a great divine but of an illustrious scholar. Mr C. C. Cotes, M.P., has accepted the office of Vice- ?resident of the National Association for Freedom of "Vcrship, whose object is gradually to abolish pew rents i« parishes, and to restore their ancient freedom to rich aid poor alike. The incumbency of St. Martin's Welsh Church at Chester, has been accepted by the Rev. William Hughes, cuate of Glasinfryn, Bangor. Mr Huglli- edited the lif, of the late Dean Cotton, and is tfie author of several usful works relating to the diO(;ee of Bangor. 4{ the £100,000 asked for by the Liberation Society forts winter campaign, it is said that X70,000 has beer subiribed, and that the council intends adopting a lade Scheie of agitation on the supposition that the re." of the ¡oney will be forthcoming.

The Chrch Congress at Stoke was brought to a se by a servK in Lichfield Cathedral. At the clos„ j meeting of Congress it was referred to as a mat! j of great satiction that not one word of strife had beej I spoken during its proceedings, and that harmony an<1 order bad char^terised its deliberations more than they r ions had any other. The Bishop otLincoln, in speaking in his cathedral city on Saturday, t a meetiug of the Anglo-Continental Society said that t^re was little difference between tne doctrines of the Eujish Church and those of the old Catholics, and that if riited they might do much to t-tem the progress of Ultrantmtanisin and Rationalism, both of which were trying to enist the sympathies of two great nations. Church work is progressing in Dorsetshire. The ancient parish church of re Regis, at the Norman transitorial period, and witl. a remarkably rich roof bearing the effigies of the twehe apostles carved in wood- work. has just been restored at a cost of £ 7,000.
