Willy will give some particulars of the recent flare up in the church. Rumor spread that Arthur Carey, one of the students from the Theological Seminary ready for examination held doctrines favorable to the Romish Church. The Bishop appointed a committee of clergy to examine him. With the exception of two, the committee reported that the rumors were unfounded. Dr. Hugh Smith and Dr. Henry Anthon prepared a protest. They have prepared a pamphlet in justification of their conduct. The rumors concerning Carey are various. There is a great anxiety to see Smith and Anthon's pamphlet. Melancthon Hoyt 's time expired at St. Andrews and he was not recalled. Young Mr. Wyatt of Baltimore preached for them; Willy has no doubt they, Father, will call him. They propose uniting St. Andrews and St. James at Hamilton Square. Poor Mr. Powell has got in hot water, some of his congregation drawing up a paper against him and some of his friends starting a counter one. Willy received James's letter for cousin Kate Catherine Bayley . She is expected from Baltimore hourly. Today Willy was able to get James' box of sundries through the customs house. Willy's business connections are in a flourishing state. Their bookkeeper is leaving and Emmet and Willy intend to try doing his department themselves. As regards his love-making, not having proposed, he is in a state of uncertainty. Willy spent three or four days at Rye with her very pleasantly. He has scarcely seen Carly Carleton Bayley in the last month. Carly made a visit to Cousin William Seton 3? intending to pass a couple of days and stayed three weeks, from thence he went to Mrs. Munroe . The last Willy heard he was up at Rosy Brown 's. Grandfather begins to grumble at his delay in returning to Illinois. Smith and Anthon's pamphlet appeared this morning; opinion was equally divided before it appeared, but has changed a little in Smith and Anthon's favor. Miss Chrissy Jarvis goes out in the packet today, also Mrs. Schmidt . Willy also sends a pamphlet of Dr. B.F. Haight in answer to Smith and Anthon and a letter of Powell to his parishioners. Chrissy will possibly call on James. Father is well. Carly started for the West. Cousin Kate is well. Mrs. Seton presented her husband a fine girl last week. :: II-2-n A.L.S. 6pp. 4to. 16
