Sir, I take the liberty of sending you the following resolution of the Lancashire magistrates, which it would give me pleasure to see adopted in every part of this diocese. If something was added to regulate alehouses on the Lord's day, so as at least to prevent drinking in them during the hours of divine service, it would render the resolution still more useful.

Vindiciae magistratus: Or, The divine institution and right of the civil magistrate vindicated: wherein are properly stated and ascertained. The true nature and extent of the moral power of civil society and magistracy, legislative and executive. The just instituted authority of magistrates. The inviolableness if just human laws and constitutions in general, and particularly those of Scotland[.] The natural and unalienable rights of individuals in, or with respect of civil society. and, The true causes from which a moral relation flows, and upon which a moral obligation is founded, &c. Against the truly factious and immoral doctrine of John Thomson (Burgher associate) minister of the Gospel at Donagbhclony in Ireland, now at Kirkintilloch near Glasgow, maintained in his pretended confutation of the principles of the reformed presbytery, in a pamphlet intituled The presbyterian covenanter displayed in his political principles, and the impostor detected. By John Thorburn, minister of the Gospel at Pentland. To which is subjoined by way of appendix. A vindication of the constitution of the reformed presbytery, and of the character, ministerial mission and authority of the Rev. Mr. John M'Millan Senior, deceased, from the groundless cavils of Mr. W.W. and Seceders. By his son. The whole being humbly offered as an apologetical representation and defence of the principles of said presbytery, and of their people, commonly known by the names of old diffenters, cameronians, &c.

The great duties of life. In three parts. I. With respect to the supreme being. II. With respect to the laws of morality. III. With respect to the law of Christ. Examined by the standard of right reason, and established on the most natural dictates of it, against the deists, free-thinkers, and other modern infidels. Wherein, all their objections against the existence of evil, providence, a future state, the immortality of the soul, rewards and punishments of the next life, and the divine institution of Christianity, are set in all the light they deserve; and shewn to be vain and illusory, when compared with the most just and forcible reasons, for the obligations of religion, both natural and revealed. With a preface, shewing the dismal effects of infidelity and irreligion, from the beginning of the world, down to this present generation. By S.B. Gent.
