For eighteen months the press had been achieving unprecedented feats. Presbyterians like Ball, Paget, Simeon Ashe, and John Geree jostled against Independents like Lilburn, Burton, Canne, and Cotton, their publications hurtling like arrows thickly through the darkened air. It was later on, however, that the Independent party was to achieve its fame and rise to power (not so much by the press as by the Commonwealth army). And meanwhile the Anti-prelatic victory was practically gained, and the wa...r of pamphlets was done for a little. EJECTION OF BISHOPS FROM THE HOUSE OF PEERS. 1642. The last Constitutional act of Charles I. , before the outbreak of the Civil "War, was to pass the Bill for ejecting the Bishops from the House of Peers. It had been introduced into the House of Commons in October, 1641, and having been adopted after some delay and reluctance by the House of Lords, was made law by the Royal assent, 14 Feb. , 1642. To understand this collapse of the temporal place and power of the Prelates, we must go back a little, to certain transactions in Convocation, as well as in the House of Commons, at Court, and through the country.
