WELSH NONCONFORMISTS: A SUGGESTION. ['re THZ EDITOR Or THZ o srscrieroa. •• ]
P.m—Would it be too much to suggest that those wide. minded Nonconformists who object to the present lamentable Welsh Church Bill should draw up in the form of a petition a list of the sectarian rubs and grievances which undoubtedly do exist in their matters ecclesiastical and forward it to Mr. Bonar Law, with the request that in the event of his party coming into power he will pledge himself to endeavour that the matter shall be properly investigated with a view to a wise and well-balanced redressing of their wrongs P Wales might thus be induced to see that a wise and even-minded earnest attempt to amend legislation would be a better means of reducing the terrible sectarian bitterness now existing between nominally Christian bodies in her unhappy country than the present combination of political bargaining and religious fanaticism, which she has been taught to believe will make an end of her warfare and herald in a reign of faith, hope, and charity crowned by peace.—I am, Sir, Sm., "A DWELLER IN WALES."
