POLITICAL AFFAIRS IN JULY. 
—=— 
GREAT BRITAIN. 
N Monday, the 30th of June, the 
following admirable and ever-me- 
morable Petition was presented to both 
houses of Parliament, signed by 2047 
persons, of whom 98 were ministers: 
The humble Petition of the undersigned 
Ministers and Members of Christian Con- 
gregations, 
SHEWETH, 
That your Petitioners are sincere be- 
lievers in the Christian Revelation from 
personal conviction on examination of the 
Evidences on its behalf ; and are thankful 
to Almighty God for the unspeakable bles- 
sing of the Gospel, which they regard as 
the most sacred sanction, the best safe- 
guard, and the most powerful motive, of 
morality, as the firmest support and most 
effectual relief amidst the afflictions: and 
troubles of this state of humanity, and as 
the surest foundation of the hope of a life 
to come, which hope they consider to be 
in the highest degree conducive to the 
dignity, purity, and happiness, of socicty. 
That, with these views and feelings, your 
Petitioners beg leave to state to your 
[Right] Honourable House, that they be- 
hold with sorrow and shame the prosecu- 
tions against persons who liave printed or 
ublished books which are, or are presumed 
to be, hostile to the Christian Religion, 
from the full persuasion that such prosecu- 
tions are inconsistent with, and contrary 
to, both the spirit and the letter of the 
Gospel, and, moreover, that they are more 
favourable to the spread of Infidelity, 
which they are intended to check, than to 
the suppert of the Christian Faith; which 
they ate professedly undertaken to up- 
hold. 
Your Petitioners cannot but consider 
all Christians bound by their religious pro- 
fession to how with reverence and submis- 
sion to the precepts of the Great Founder 
of onr Faith; and nothing appears to them 
plainer in the Gospel than that it forbids 
all violent measures for its propagation, 
and all vindictive measures for its justifi- 
cation and defence. ‘The Author and 
Finisher of Christianity has declared, that 
his kingdom is not of this world ; and, as 
in his own example he shewed a perfett 
pattern of conrpassion towards them that 
are ignorant and ont of the way of truth, 
of forbearance towards objectors, and of 
forgiveness of wilful enemies,—so in his 
moral laws he has’ prohibited” the spirit 
that would attempt to root up speculative 
error with the arm of flesh, or that would 
call down fire from Heaven to consnme the 
unbelieving, and has commanded the ex- 
ercise of meekness, tenderness, and bro- 
therly Jove, : towards all mankind, as the 
best and only means of promoting his 
cause upon earth, and the most accep- 
table way of glorifying the Great Father 
of Mercies, who is kind even to the’ un- 
thankful and the evil. calla 
By these reasonable, charitable, and 
peaceful, means, the Christian. Religion 
_was not only established originally,, but 
also supported for the three first centuries: 
of the Christian era, during which it tri- 
umphed over the most fierce and potent 
é opposition,
