Synopsis

Excerpt from Letters to a Seceder From the Church of England to the Communion of Rome

In preparing the Letters for publication, the writer thought it best to retain most of those private and personal allusions which are incidental to a correspondence because they appear to furnish an useful illustration of the moral conditions under which a large proportion of the late secessions to Rome have notoriously taken place. Peiarities of temper and conduct, the real character of which would be understood at once if they only affected a worldly interest and merely social relations, are too often thought respectable, and indulged by ill judging friends, when they shelter themselves under the mistaken plea of conscience. There is a common, though secret, feeling, that what is manifestly wrong in every thing else may, nevertheless, he sometimes right, or even a duty, in matters of religion. It is high time, however, to remind the younger and less instructed members of the Church, that the moral eccentricity which is now leading some of them to Rome deserves our praise and sympathy no more than did the same quality in the same class of minds, when, some few years ago, external circumstances had determined the tide of secession in the direc tion of Dissent.

An Appendix has been added, containing illustra tions of some of the subjects which appeared too briefly treated in the text.
