In our own country, the first of these causes can have no influence, and the lat- ter must be much less strongly felt ; and we should be unable to account for the sensation which the discus- sion has excited among us, were it not for the influ- ence of those sympathies and antipathies which, in the present state of intercourse, are so easily propa- gated across the Atlantic. "The circumstances under which our Church has grown up in this country, have led us to regard it in its true character, n...ot as a State establishment, but as a divine institution. As a minor denomination of Christians, too, we have been constantly compelled to act on the defensive, and have been more gen- erally accustomed, than our English brethren, to refer its constitution to the appropriate Scriptural author- ity, and its usages to those early Christian writings, by which they can be successfully defended. "Though I do not imagine that the Tracts referred to, or the discussions which have grown out of. them, will lead to any material change of sentiment in regard to the doctrines, discipline, or usages of the Church, as they are now received and practiced by us, yet the writers will not fail to command our respect for their learning, their talents, and their piety.
