An Interview with the Re- jected Bishop. What He Says in Reply to Dr. Forbes. The Rev. Edward Sullivan on the Ro- Etriotivo Canon. DK. LOCKE. HIS IDEAS OF THE nEJKCTION OF TIIOF. BEYMODB. Tho Hot. Dr. Loeko, who has just returned from Now York, spoke as follows yesterday even ing, on . tho aubjoct of tho rojcctlon of Prof. Seymour hy tho ICpfecopal Convention: Having Just returned from tho General Con vention, of which 1 was n member, and knowing how anxious pcoplo iu Chicago must bo to havo set before them tbo -reasons wblcb induced tbo House of Otorlcal and Lay Deputies to refuse to confirm tbo election of Dr. Seymour, Bishop-elect of Illinois, 1 have thought it my duty briefly to review tho action of tho Convention in that mat ter as dearly and as truthfully as lies within my ability. Tho position of tbo Dloccso of Illinois before tho General Convention woa (his : Wo had in open convention hero, after a thorough com pliance with all tho canonical regulations, chosen for our Bishop a clergyman of good standing iu the Church, on whom there vested no canonical difilculty.*Tho choice bad fatten up on no obscure man.upon no moro undistinguish ed Presbyter; wo bad elected ono of tho most celebrated clergymen of tbo Church, —tbo bond of tbo only Theological riomiunry which is called General, ana of which all (bo Biuhops, and a largo number of tho most prominent clergymen and javmoa are Trustees,—a mao of well-known ability aud long-tented administrative power,— a man of fervent piety and deep (spirituality, known for Ins celf-dunying and solf-sacrifiemg Christian philanthropy. Nor was ho elected without thought, or without deliberation. His namo bad appeared iu tbo public puporj ; a letter urglug bim had been read iu tho preliminary mooting of conference before tbo Convention.; and, after the nomination of him by tbo Bov. Dr. Doan, there was a long and animated dis cussion of his merits and demerits, pro and con. It woe urged by his friends then, just as it would bo urged to-morrow If wo had it to do over again (for nothing has occurred to change their opinions), thatiulcanfing,iuotoquouco,iQ outlm siaom, in devotion to work,iu sound and thorougli clmrchmanship, without any extremes of any kind, be was well suited to bo tho Bishop of this splendid Diocese of Illinois. Nothing was done in thatConvonfiou that any of Dr. Seymour’s friends need be ashamed of, and on the fast complete ballot, that of both clergy and laity, bo was elected by a constitutional majority of seven. The next morning his testimonials wore nigned by far more than that cumber. Indeed, it was thought that every member of the Convention hud signed them, and it was not kuowa until somo time after that a very few, six or eight, had, from ono reason or another, not signed them. Of course their legal effect would have been perfect if nut a single ono had signed other than tho majority, by which Dr. Seymour was elected. Soon after our Convention it was rumored among us luut, outside of our diocese, by parties utterly foreign to tbo State, efforts wore being made to create a prejudice against tbo Bishop elect—efforts originating, ns is well-known, iu persons whom Dr. Seymour, by one of those chances which no man of energy aud character can avoid, had managed to offend and to turn into personal enemies. Wo, however, did not give that much heed (when I say tee, I moan the majority of tbo clergy aud laity represented in Convention), aud we wont to Convention with out much fear of any adverse result. We soon found that there was to bo opposition, and that of tbo most rigorous kind; but wo also found that wo had many aud strong friends, aud that no rains would bo spared to have justice done us. Tho delegation, whoso personnel is well known to you, was a unit, with tbo exception of one member, whoso course has been moat fully dis cussed, and no comments of mine are needed. Tho matter of Prof. Seymour's confirmation was fixed for Wednesday, tho 14th of October, ami came up on tho resolution of tho Committee on the Consecration ot Bishops; fteaolved, That this House proceed to confirm the election of Dr. Seymour as BUUop of Illinois. Tho wbolo cneo won conuldorftd in secret bos* alou, mid occupied from Wednesday tho 14th till Wednesday tho 22d. Tho vow of secrosy has been removed, so that it is competent for mo to stnto tho lino of action. It was a wonderful and a brilliant debate. High Cabinet oflicera, Judges, and lawyers of distinction say that rarely in auy legislative body could tboro ba hoard so rare a treat of intellectual ability and keen appreciation of argument, and. above all, it was a perfectly courteous and Christian do* bate. In all that long time, and with men ox* citod to fever boat, no word over dropped from tho lips of any speaker which called forth re monstrance ; nor was any man called to order for any intemperance of language. I was proud of a Church which could conduct eo ex citing a thomo in so beautiful a spirit. I con sider that it was a groat loss to the Church to have boon deprived by the secret session, of tho bright example of mou restrained by Christian courtesy from exciting remark or personal re flection. Tho first charges against Prof. Seymour wore of uusoundnoss iu doctrine.—that ho hold exag gerated views of the Holy Eucharist, and lUtual latic opinions on tho subject of the Confessional and tho rendering of the nubile service. It was asked by his friends. Whore is tho sermon preached, the word written or spoken, whore is the testimony of any witness, that ho does hold or teach such errors ? Nothing in the way of evidence was presented but a crude fragment of a young man’s seminary exorcise, which it was said Prof. Seymour did not' condemn. Letters wove read from Ritualistic women exulting ovot Seymour’s election, and letters about young women flirting with foolish theological students; but all that was, as one speaker re marked, a thousand million miles away from touching Prof. Seymour’s wrong doctrine, lie distinctly avowed, over bin own signature, in a latter written long before ho had auy thought of tho Bishopric of Illinois, that he disapproved of that young man’s sermon and doctrine quite as fully os any of his brother professors ; but, by .their own action, was prevented from showing it by his vote, It was said ho had presented tho young man for ordination. Uo showed that the young man had to him and to his Bishop re nounced the error and the wrong doctrine it contained, and that this young man, after a cross-examination by seven Presbyters, had boon ordained priest by ono of tho most careful of our Bishops. And. byouo authorized to speak for him, tho most distinct and satisfactory statements of his perfect soundness in the faith wore made; ami tho very worda wore used, “I do not adore, nor would I over, nor have I over, taught my people to adore Chrlsi present in the sacromont under tho form of bread aud wine.’* Prof. Seymour distinctly stated, through friends, that ho hold no other doctrines than those usually held iu our Church, and those in uo extreme way. To mo, and to those who wanted to bo convinced, tho evidence was overwhelming that no charge of unsoundness in the faith could bo proven even by inference. Thou it was urged that Uo favored and In dulged in Ritualistic practices. The only specifi cation known seomod to bo that, at an ordina tion, ho had been seen to remain on bln knees during tho whole tlmo of communion, a practice so common hero that many of us wore perfectly surprised to hear that it was considered extreme. It was added that bo beat his breast during that tlmo. nud indulged Hi strong gestures. This ho denied over his own signature. 1 cannot go into all lUai was said on this point, but I appeal lo any ono who hoard it, friend or foo, whether it was proven that Dr. Seymour had, to any extent, or in any way, boon guilty of what is commonly called Ritualism. Ho denied in his own writing that ho bad In any way. i Then his temper was urged as a bur to his THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1874. confirmation. It wrb ntnlml that ho wna no violent In tamper that ho could not govern a dloooßO tranquilly, and old oorrennoudonco and burled pampblota woro bnmgnt In—corro itpoudcuoo and pmnphloto which had bean with* drawn, nml forgiven and formation. All the Seminary troubles woro brought up, although it was known that a commlnnlon of Bishops had examined into all that, found wrong on both aides, and had adjuuted tho matter fully, and It had remained adjusted. It was shown that Dr. Seymour bad boon very much exasperated by what ho thought unjust treatment, and had need expressions which woro hasty, and for which lie was sorry; and it was eliown that ovou Mobob ami St. Paul could not have boon continued Bishop if hastiness of temper was a cardinal objection. Quick temper generally goes hand in li&ml with much earnestness and groat enthusiasm. Then it was urged that somo of his intimate friends woro Bitnnlists, and therefore ho must bo; but It was shown that such on inference was unfounded, and It was well known that somo of the most moderate clergy in tho Church wore at* taohed to him. A man for whom Dr, Halo, of Brooklyn; Dr. Burgess, of MassaohUHotts; and Dr. Leeda, of Maryland, could vole—whom they could respect, and about whom his own Bishop (Bishop Potior, of Haw York) wrote tho most laudatory letter—could not bo put down by tho cry, . 11 Ho is known by his friends.” During the last days of tho session, a letter from a Bishop was road alllrming that Dr. Sey mour bad Allowed a celebrated Ritualist to lec ture to tho students iu a private room. Dr. tioy monr denied this over his own signature, and stated that ho was (hero without his kuowlodgo or consent, and ho had nothing to do with It. Tho members of tho Convention, according as they folt, bollovod either the Professor or tho Bishop. Tills is about tho sum and substance of tho debate, for I need not speak of tbo little protest from Illinois, nor of any arguments faulting tho Illinois testimonials. They produced no effect whatever, and, as far os I remember, woro never oven referred to by any speaker on tbo side op posed to Dr. Boymour, save by tho one who mode them. Yon may ask now Why, then, was Dr. Seymour rejected? On what ground was tho refusal to confirm based? Simply on this, avowed openly, and insisted upon as sufficient t popular preju dice connects him with Ititualism, Whether in nocent or guilty (and as ono of his oppon ents said; “lu any court of law ho would bo thoroughly acquitted’’), bo must bo sacrificed to ibis popular prejudice: one man cannot stand in tho way of a church; and, no matter how hard it may bo for him and for Illin ois, tho high state of fouling iu our Church do mauds that ho should go under rather than that the whole Church should bo misunderstood. To mo, and to many others, ibis doctrine of expedi ency scorned a hard doctrine; but it has often boon acted upon in tho world, and we must not bo surprised at its swaying any largo assemblage. At all events, that was tho ground taken at last by Dr. Seymour's oppononts, and on that ground, 1 think, alone was be rejected. Ho was ably and brilliantly defended. Oat of forty-two speakers, twenty woro in his favor; and among them wore some of tho most re nowned lawyers and clergymen in our Church, and men who could no moro ho accused of Bit nnlimn than of Mohammedanism urged strongly the justice of bis cause. Ho bud, as you know, a numerical majority (145 to 140), and all tho di oceses of tho State of Now York, whero his whole lifo bos boon passed, voted for him, both of which results have groat moral weight. Wo vote, however, by dioceses, and every divided dioccßo counts in tho negative, and a diocese with ono clergyman and ono layman in its repro semation casts tho saroo vole as ono with four clergymen aud four laymen.—peculiar arrange ments which make it dltuoult, and perhaps it ought to be. to secure tbo requisite majority re quired of Lotb orders by tbo constitution. Tho result was tho effect of a series of cir cumstances. Tho Olmrcb is very much oxoiled on the subject of Kitualism. Prof. Seymour’s name was connected with that by certain par ties, a prejudice arose against him, and tho bat tle of Bitualism was turned on tho side issue of bis confirmation, and so ho failed. Ho retains tho post ho has so long and honor ably hold, and tho love and confidence of all who have known him well. Indeed, he has endeared himself moro and more by tbo beautiful spirit in which bo has borne this cruel blow. If he had boon proven guilty of fatso doctrine or exag gerated Bituabsm, I should consider it a deliver ance, for certainly i favor no oxtremo views. 1 am not aware of over having done ono Bitualistio act, aud tbo service iu this church is performed as it is in the great majority of parish churches in this land. My doctrine has never changed since I am hero, and X purposely road over a ser mon I preached on tho Eucharist fifteen years ago to see whether 1 had varied in my views. 1 found that I taught then as 1 teach now—no strange dogma, simply tho true spiritual pres ence of my Lord in tho Holy Supper, received by faith alone—tho body and blood of Christ given, taken, and received after a spiritual and heavenly manner by tho loving heart. But I do not consider that any otmrgo of falso doctrine or extreme ritual was at all proven against tbo man whom wo had chosen. Ido not think that ho was justly liable to ovil report for “orrorin religion” or for “viclousuessin life.” I think that ho was forced to give way to a panic about ritual, aud was condemned because it was thought tho good of tho Church demanded it. Let us all bo culm and patient under this trial. Tho General Convention was perfectly compe tent to acc. It has acted, and oar duty as loyal churches Is to submit to that action. Lot us not use any hasty or bitter words. Lot ns pray Ood to enlighten us, and keep us from preju dice and from passion, i’robably iu January a special convention will bo called; and between that time aud this things will have settled down, and wo will bo üblo to look at them moro dis passionately than wo now do. Just now Ido not think wo can judge whnt is best. I trust that wo may secure a good and earnest man to bo onr Bishop; that wo will all rally around him, and that under his leadership this groat diocese may do a noble work for Christ and His Church. It Is a novel policy, this rejection of a man on suspicion of wrong doctrine. I do not know what its results may bo. Of Diocesan Bishops only throe others have over been rejected; one on account of illegal election, one for charges of maladministration of property, and one for proved false doctrine. God grant it may bo many yeava before the Church undergoes another such trial 1 andQou grant that tho man called upon to go through it may come out ns pure as Dr. Soy mour comes out! I did my best, so did my col leagues with tho exception of tho opposing mem ber; so did all those who sympathized with us. Everything was fair and above-board. Wo failed, but there was uo exultation, only tho profound oat sympathy; for I think tho groat body of men in that lioaso acted from conscientious couvic- tiou. Lot us lose no heart, but go on with our duty, aud leave the issue in the hands of God. THE SECRET DOCUMENTS, J'rom (he A’ctr York papers, Oct. 30. The documents submitted to the secret ses sion of the House of Deputies over tho confir mation of Dr. Seymour, Bishop of Illinois, have been made public. They are only six Iu num ber. Tho ill'st is tho report of a committee of tho Ilouso of Bishops, which investigated a doctrinal difficulty between tho Doau mid Fac ulty of the General Theological Seminary, in this city, and tho Bov. Dr. Seymour, Professor of Ecclesiastical History therein. A BASIS 01' ACIIUIKMENT was proposed by tho Committee, and tho fol lowing was finally adopted: Tbo Committee deputed by (bo House of Blahopa to visit tho General Theological damlancy, couslsting of Um Bishops of North Carolina (Chairman), of IIIIuoIh, Easton, Vermont, NewHampshhe, ami the Assistant of Maryland, butur ansomblod iu the Faculty room of the seminary, offered to the Uev.

Seabury, Eigouhmll, uml Seymour, Pro fessors of the Seminary, the following paper, as the hauls of an agreement between the Dean ami the two flrst-uamed Professors ou the one part, and Prof. Seymour ou the other. First— I The Dean and tbo Professors present, who acted with him, declare that they had no intention, in the action of the Faculty in March, 1870, to deal un generously with Dr. Seymour or to force him into a false position on their record. They further declare that their expression of surprise oun grief iu the rcso- Jinlou of G0t.25,1U70, “that they hud not tho con currence of their colleague in upholding the discipline of tlio seminary, and in keeping Its interests *lu harmony with tho lilblo nod the Hook of Common Prayer,* 1 referred to tho mutter (lien before the Faculty, and was not intended to impeach the general conduct ami teaching of Dr. Seymour, either os u Professor of tbo seminary, or os a Presbyter of the Church. AVvom/— Dr. Seymour having, In consequence of the above declaration, withdrawn tbo pamphlet entitled “ A Defense of tbu Professor of Ecclesiastical History Against the Assault of tlio Doan and the other Pro fessors," Ac,, the members of the Faculty now iircseul ate o{ the opinion that the preamble and mo luus adopted by lbs Faculty Oct. 6, lb7J, ought also to bo withdrawn, ami not reported to the Hoard of Trustees. Tbo lifsbops of tbo Visiting Committee, without wishing to impose a rule of action ou tlio Faculty, or any member of the same, for their future guidance, unanimously thunk tho Faculty for discountenancing the error that the glorilled person of unr Savior Christ is present iu and indissolubly nulled to tho consecrated elements of the Holy Eucharist, ami express tho hope that the Faculty will continue to guard against the same error iu tho studies and discipline of the semi nary. The above, having been read by tho Chairman of tho Visiting Committee, in accepted by the members of the Faculty present; and in witness thereof they subscribe Uiolr names in the presence of tlio Bishops.

Tho letter referred to had this paragraph: I huvo the present acting Dean’s own acknowledg ment that ho permitted “ Father” Grafton to viaitaud indoctrinate the student* last winter. Tho Bov. Dr. Stringfollow, of Alabama, presented a paper indorsed : “ Questions nml Answers from Dr. Seymour, presented by Dr. Striugfellow,” as followa: Q. I.—Did you over receive any gentleman or gen tlemen well known either a* agents of tho O. B. 8. or tbouyetom 11 sustained, or were uuy such person op persons permitted by you to lecture to tho students of tho Seminary iu & private room on bis or their peculiar views of tho Holy Eucharist 7 A.—No person or per sons, male or female, have over been permitted by mo to deliver lecture* or addresses in private or in publlo to (bo students since I have been connected with tho General Theological Seminary without tho knowledge and consent of my colleague*; so far as I can remem ber. the following persona only, with my knowledge aud consent, have delivered lecture* or addresses to tho students, viz.: Nov, 1,1872, tho Rt. Rev, A. C. Coxe, D. D., LL. D,, Bishop of Western Now York; 'Lent, 1874, the Rev. Jamru Long, M. A., on India, of the Archdiocese of Calcutta, India, two lectures; Juno, 1674, I’rof. Charles tihort, LL. D., on tho Vulgate translation of tho Bible, one lecture; tho Bishop of Now York delivers each winter lectures to his candi dates, aud to such other members of tho Senior Class as choose to attend. Q. 2.—Do you deny or mlimt, ns a Professor In *ho seminary, that you have steadfastly renlntecl tho uojlo offorlfi of your rollesguoK, Dm. Seabury and Vinton, who bavo labored to maintain the dootriuca of tbo Holy Enclmrtat, and tbo nrovleiona of tbo Rubric for tbo celebration of tbo Euclnirlat—purenud undelllcd ? A.— X deny most emphatically tb&i 1 have ever bo restated my colleagucj. Drs. Hoxbury and Vinton, or any other Profcasor. Ify differcucea with my colleague* bavo been simply ns to questions of policy and modes of administering discipline. My pamphlet was prepared with tbo express and solo purpose of protecting myself against such a charge, and my coUwguos, at tbo visitation of the six Bishops, on Jan. 7, 1872, distinctly withdraw that charge, and In consequence of such withdrawal I with drew my pamphlet. Sco basis of agreement prepared by Hlsbojrt. Q. 3,—Did (be Rev. Mr. Grafton, with your consent or knowledge, over lecture to or address the students of tbo seminary upon any subject, and If so,upon wbut subject, and under wbut circumstances 7 A.—lie sever did with my knowledge and consent. Q. i.— Did you over confess or Acknowledge tbo nfllr matlou of thpno facts to any person, Bishop, priest. Deacon or layman, as specified In question No, a? A.—l never did so confess or acknowledge, since such a confession or acknowledgment would have been contrary to tho truth. Tbo facts were simply these: Too Rev. Mr, Grafton upon ouo occasion called upon a student at Ids room in tbo seminary, and while there other students in the neighboring rooms beard of his presence, and came to see him. and requested him to tell them about Cowley ami tbo plan and purpose of the brotherhood of which Mr. Oration is a member. 'The Rov. Sir. Graltou, as I was informed after tbo occurrence, bod no design when bo culled of bolding any such conversation; it was simply accidental. I did not learn of it until somo time niter it took place, and I had nothing whatsoever to do Mdth it. All tho interviews I have over bad with tbo Rov. Mr. Grafton since 1 bavo known him would not amount in extent of time to four hours. 1 was introduced to tbo iter. Mr. Grafton years ago, when bo was assistant to tbo Rov. Dr. Wyatt of St. Paul’s Church, Baltimore. Md., and. have seen him only occmdoually since. Q. s—Did any person. Bishop, priest, Deacon, or layman, ever challenge your acknowledgment or con fession to baring permitted tho Rov. Mr. Grafton, or any other person not connected with tho seminary, to listen to or address the students 7 A.—l never ac knowledged or confessed to having done so, and houce I do not sco bow any ouo could bavo so challenged. Q. o—Did any person speak to you on the subject. If so who? A.—Vest Bishop Coxe, in a visitation which ho held in tbo eouitiinry in tho winter ornpilng of 1873, inquired about the visit of the Rev. Mr. Grafton, and I gnvo him In siibalanco the information which 1 bavo submitted in my answers as above; at that visitation tbo charge was mudo that a presbyter bad been prowl- IngaboiUthosomlDury loroovcral days;on Inquiry I found that reference was made la this allegation to a presbyter who hud come to tbo seminary for the pur jH>Ho of being with tha mourners and attending tho funeral of the daughter of tbo bto Prof. Soabnry, and while In the seminary was tho gnost of the widow Heu bury, then residing in the seminary grounds. Q. 7—ls it In accordance with tho standards of (his OUuccU to kach, cither by word or act, tho adoration of onr Blessed Lord under tho form of bread and wine In the Eucharist ? A.—l hold. In accordance with tbo standards of tbo Church of England, “that no adoration 1h intended or ought to be dune either unto the sacramental broad or wiuo there bodily re ceived, or unto any corporal presence of Christ’* natural flesh or blood. For tbo sacramental bread and wine remain still in tholr very natural substances, uml, therefore, may not be adored (for that wore idola try to Iw abhorred of ail faithful Christians) ; and tho natural body and blood of our Savior Christ are in heaven, and not here, it being against (he truth of (Jhrlflt’s natural body to bo at ouo time in mors places than ouo.” 1 bold, also, in accordance with our Twenty-eighth article, that ••tbo body of Christ Is given, token, and eaten In tbo Supper only after an heavenly and spiritual manner, and tho moans where by the body of Christ Is received la faith.” I hold, also, with tbo same article, that 'Mho Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper was not by Christ's ordinance ro servod, curried about, lifted up, or worshiped." Q. B—ls attendance on tho sacrament for tbo pur pose of osslstlng in tbo sacrifice without (lie reception of tbo elements consonant with the spirit of our ottlcoj and articles 7 (In other words, tbo ulilccs and articles of (ho Protestant Episcopal Church). A.—Such at tendance, with snob a purpoHo, ought, in my Judg ment, to bo discouraged an nut in any way recognized by our ofilccs and articles—that Is. tbo olUcca and articles of tho Protestant Episcopal Church. Q. o—Does the habit of private or sacramental con fession, 80-called, foster ns a means of grace u higher typo of holiness than tbo disuse of such confession, except in tbo way and for tbo purposes indicated in the warning appointed to bo read before the Holy Com munion? A.—lbavo never taught, encouraged, or , practiced the habit of private or sacramental confes sion, ami 1 have never scon tho fruits of such a pnm (lco in others, and hence lam not able to say wbut ouch fruiln would be. I only know of coufwmiou asU Is taught uml allowed by the standards of tint Prot estant Episcopal Church and sanctioned by the Bishops In tliclr Pastoral of lb7l, . ... Q. lu—Did you, or do you over, when present at the Holy Communion, practice bowings, crossings, kneel ings, gcnulloctlona, or ouy bodily act, intending there by to exprois any adoration of tho Bacrameui? A.— I have never, on suy occasion, done so; nor could I possibly da so, since 1 da nut wish, nor bavo 1 over, at any time, desired, tu pay such adoration, buck odnru 'tlau would be contrary to my convictions; it would Lu an awful Impiety, Quouok F.

SEYMOUR. /Vom the Xe(i> York Ilf raid, Oct. 30. , . , Dr. Seymour spanks rapidly nnd with groat earnestness, and yesterday bis manner was that of a man whoso fooling* had boon greatly wrought upon, ond who was smarting under a grievous wrong. “I bavo road tbo statements of tho Bov. Mr. Forbes,” [published under tho head of “Bo lisioua News,” la yesterday's paper,— Ed. Tuiuunb.] Dr. Seymour began, with quiet dig nity, "and 1 have not tho slightest desire to re ply to his assault by attacking him in tho same manner in which holms attacked mo. I shall simply coniine myself to the grave charges which ho has preferred against mo, aud which rolled upon my character. And, boloro pro ceeding further, I dcalro to say that (ho Bishop ric of Illinois is nothing to me compared to tho vindication of my Integrity, whioh has boon so grossly assailed." “Yon wore onco censured, Doctor, by tho Faculty for assaulting tho Doan in a pamphlet, wore you not?” •• you, I wao. I published a pamphlet ns a de fense ngaiuat tho unprovoked assault of tbo Doau and the other Professors of the Seminary. Tho opposing portv of throe Professors and Dcau directed a criticism upon my pamphlet to bo made upon tho minutes, hut this couauro was subsequently UIQECTRD TO I»E EXPOSOED by a Committed of tho House of Bishops, who, at my solicitation, paid a visit to tho Seminary in order to examine into tho charges which the other Professors had preferred against mo. Af ter staying hero a week the Bishops drew up a basis of agreement [published above.— Ed. TuinoNK.] upon which the Professors might moot again m accord. Upon this basis tho pamphlet alluded to was explicitly withdrawn and tho criticism upon tho minutes expunged, and to bring ibis now forward again is an open breach of faith.” “ Dr. Forbcsaays that ono of tho greatest ob jections to your confirmation was your intimate association with Ritualists?” Dr. Seymour replied to this question with much honest emphasis: “My rule of action has been invariably to preach for any clergyman of good standing, ho he a High Church or a Low Church man. aa long as ho is recognized by tho occlealasUral authorities aa a minister of the Gospel. Every clergyman is mv brother, and 1 allow uo differences in creed or theological opinions to interfere with my social conduct. '• My house, I say it frankly, is open to tho Baptist and the Presbyterian, os well os to tho Episcopalian, and to tho Greek or Homan Catho lic, as well as to tho Jew and the Bitualiat. lam on terms of cordial friendship with a Jewish rabbi, and with several X’rcabytorian cleigymon, whom I esteem highly, aud, if this bo a wrong, I freely confess that 1 AM UPILTY OP IT.” Dr. Seymour paused at this point, and, smil ing, asked: “And, by tbo way, if Ido receive Ritualists, and welcome thorn to my honao, how do they know but what 1 urn trying to convert them to tho true dogma ? ” “ Dr. Forbes also charges you with prevarica tion and dislugouuommoss in your pamphlet ?" “ I want the fullest investigation into every act of my life.” Dr. Seymour replied, in a fear less tone, *' aud welcome ovory charge if it bo made by responsible parties aud supported by proof. Mv existence has passed in this my native plsco and its close vicinity and is open to tho closest scrutiny, My wholo life is in tho hands of my brethren, and 1 can truly say Dial 1 have never beau guilty of holding bnak anything or entertaining religious views which I would not openly avow. Can 1 say more on a charge so indefinite ?” •• Dr. Forbes stated that you wero ‘ liable' to ovll reports, and could therefore not receive the certificate from the Convention ?” "Tho certificate does not say 'liable.* but says distinctly ' Justly liable.’ Our blessed Lord Himself was ‘liable’ to rumors, for wkou Ho came eating and drinking they prophesied 1 Be hold a gluttonous man, a wine bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.’ Now, 1 say that I may bo • liable,’ but that I Alt NOT 'JUSTLY LIABLE.’ Why, the best mow are liable to rumors. You may visit n dying person in a house which may turn out to be an abode of prostitution, and as regards these rumors it should not bo forgotten that a numerical molorlty of tho Convention ac cepted mo.” “Dr. Fotboa also states, that the burden of proof lay upon you to show that these rumors wore false r’ “ How could 1, when the Convention sat with closed dolors, and I was not even suffered to know what wore tho charges against mo ? This is tho first time in the history of tho Episcopal Church of tho United States that a Convention, in taking up tho question of confirming a Bishop-elect, has sat with closed doors, and im posed the obligation of secrecy upon its mem bers so us to kcop him in total ignorance of tho charges preferred against him. Thev refused to allow mo to bo heard when i Bent them a written request to that effect, and tbon they brought tho charges in piecemeal, bo that a fresh accusa tion against mo was brought up at 11 o’clock, when the vote wan to bo taken at 4 on the same afternoon (in a tone of subdued bitterness). You soo that, without oven referring to tho merits of the question, mine was a very hard case." “ I)r. Forbes quotes tho coso of Dr. Hawks aa a precedent.” “Ah, but Dr. Hawks was proaouton tho floor of the Convention to answer to tho charges pre ferred against him. And thou tho Convention cat with open doors, bo that there is & world-wide difference from that case. And now to tho charge that I had allowed an extreme Ritualist to come to tho Seminary to talk with tho students, Ac. This utatomont is TOTALLY UNTUDE. I never permitted tvuy person to deliver & loe turo privately to tho students, but, of course, ovory respectable man in at liberty to visit hla friends among tho students. I establish no espionage over them, ami leave their social inter course totally unrestrained by any mlo except that of respectability." “ How about the charge that you defended a young clergyman who had delivered a sermon ou tho ouobumt, touching Homan Catholic doc trines ? 11 “ The person in question was not a clergyman, but a student who hod not yot been admitted to holy orders. My defense was not a defense of tho sermon, but merely a protection against what I considered an unwise policy, that of censuring oflicially the exercise of a student wbilo no was a learner and not a teacher. 1 insisted (and I still entertain tho sumo opinion) that such a policy was fraught with danger to the Seminary, and would havo an injurious effect upon the students, inasmuch m it put thorn upon their trial on all points covered by their theological studies from the very outset of their course white they were learners and not teachers. The discourse in question was written as an exorciso iu this insti tution. and not as u public sermon." Hr. Seymour then added that this was all ho lud to say. Ho did not Uosire to oust any asper sions upon tho character of tho llov. Hr. Forbes, ur.d had merely defended Idmsolf against tho charges made against him. He was perfectly willing to abide tuo issue. THE BBV. MR. SULLIVAN. RITUALISM AT THE EPISCOPAL CONVENTION, Tho Hov. Edward Sullivan, recently returned from tho Episcopal Convention hold at New York, discussed iu Trinity Church, corner of Michigan avenue and Twenty-sixth street, yes terday morning, on tho canon adopted hy tho Convention forbidding tho introduction of new and uuuotioosary forme into tho communion service* The said thocom- mnnlon sendee wm tho very heart, the Boat, of ritualistic lifo. There began nil thopostmlngand other foreign systems of worship, which, under of Ititualism, had Invaded the Church In some districts of America and Great Britain. Some gentlemen at the Convention hold that there wan little or no Ihltinlium in the Episcopal Church, at homo or abroad. He begged leave to differ from thorn—there was. In England ho remembered ibat petitions in favor of Ititualism had boon presented by no loss.thau 483 High- Churchmen, when tbo Earl of Sbaflsbnry ex pressed his great alarm upon the subject. In America there wore, perhaps, 3,000 olorlca in tbo ministry, nnd, out of that number, bo be lieved that there was a very fair-sized minority more or Joss given to genuflexion, ormatiora of that hind. Some men in tho Clmrob were inclined tothink this a more trifle. They Bald, in effect, “Why denounce lUfuaiism, which lo bat weak, while nationalism, with great Bciontisiß at its head, is malting ouch fearful inroads In tbo very life of ChrUittanUy?” He Old uot bollovo tiiat nation alism was ho very powerful in tho land, not withstanding tho ommoiatloos of Prof. Tyndall. He behoved that thoro waa an in ward monitor in tho heart of man which forbade Atheism. Unbelief might bo upon the lips, but it was, as a rule, foreign to tho heart. 111b chief obloc’tion lo Ititualism wan that it look away tho simple, spiritual form of relig ion, and substituted in its place what was called “ body worship." Ho wan led to talk ou this par ticular restrictive canon because It was aprbpos of tbo occaaiou, and bo did not have time to deal with other points that camo up m tho Conven tion. Ho, as a Churchman, was opposed to tbo encroachments of Ritualism, and, therefore, ho congratulated tho members of Trinity Chinch, ns well as the Church nt largo, on the wisdom dis played iu forbidding, under «ov«o penalty, all further attempts to convert tbo commuuiou ser vice into a Ititualistio display. Pockot-ntoncy, It) a Pennsylvania etoluto for tho protection of hotel-hoopers, which provides that they shall not bo acaounlablo for property stolon from a gneat which shall bavo boon deposited with thorn for safe-hooping, occurs a clause of exception as follows: •• Nothing heroin contained shall apply to such an amount of money, ami such articles of goods. Jewelry, and valuables, as in usual, com mon, iitm prudent for any snob guest or hoarder to retain iu bis room or about his poison." An Interesting case under this statute has just been tried before a roforoo, In which tbo plaintiff de manded tho restoration of sli>s stolon from him hi a Pittsburg hotel. Tho roforoo has decided that tho sum named was too largo to be carried as poclcot-inoooy by any properly cautions and prudent man, aud tho ease will probably bo ap pealed. —rark-Coraniiß9ionora 'Williamson find Stow nrt, tho Commiltoo appointed to Investigate tho disappearance from the Central Park camivori nraof the bull-dog “Danger,” who wan captured by Hr.
