A Dudleian lecture will be given in Appleton Chapel this evening by Professor George P. Fisher, D. D., of Yale University, who is the leading authority in New England on matters connected with the history of religious controversy. The subject, which is the fourth of those prescribed by the founder, reads follows:-
"The fourth and last lecture I would have for the maintaining explaining, and proving the validity of the ordination of ministers or pastors of the churches, and so their administration of the sacraments or ordinances of religion as the same hath been practiced in New England from the first beginning of it, and so continued at this day.- Not that I would any ways invalidate Episcopal ordination as it is commonly called and practised in the Church of England: but I do esteem the method of ordination as practised in Scotland, at Geneva, and among the dissenters in England, and in the churches in this country, to be very safe, scriptural and valid: and that the great Head of the church, by his blessed spirit, hath owned, sanctified and blessed them accordingly, and will continue so to do to the end of the world. Amen."
The chapel choir will be present and sing a number of anthems during the exercises of the evening.
