Barnes, John, an Englishman, who entered the Benedictine order at Douai partly from fear ofthe In- quisition. In 1625 he published at Paris a Dlssertatio contra E pilcocatlones, which received the approbation of the faculty at Paris. In 1G30 his Cathollco-Romanus Pacifit us appeared at Oxford. His works gave great offence to the ultramontane party, and, at the request of Pope Urban VIII, Barnes was sent to Rome by Louis XIII in 1G27. He was at once confined in the Inquisition, and, after thirty years of imprisonment, died there. In his C.ttholicc-Romanus Pacificus his de- sign was to induce the pope to receive Anglicans to his communion, without requiring them to acknowledge de- pendence on the Holy See, until such time as a free and oecumenical council could be convoked to settle all dif- ferences.— Bioff.

Barnes, Robert, chaplain to Henry VIII. and one of the English Reformers, who began his career by preaching against the pride and display of Wol- sey. In 1535 he was sent to Wittenberg by Henry VIII to confer with the theologians there about the king's divorce, and he imbibed Lutheran views, which, on his return to England, he began to preach. Some time after, finding himself in danger, he escaped into Germany, and there formed the acquaintance of Lu- ther, Melanethon, and other Protestant leaders. In 1536, as the reformers were in favor with Henry VIII, ho returned to England ; but, preaching imprudently against Gardiner and against the royal supremacy, he incurred the king's displeasure, r.nd was compelled to recant. Subsequently he retracted his recantation, and was tried and condemned to death by the Parlia- ment of 1540. On the 30th of July in that year he was burnt, with William Jerome and Thomas Gerard. They all suffered with the patience and fortitude of the old martyrs. His published writings are A Trea- tise conta'ninga Profession of Faith (first published in Latin, 1531s) : — Vita Roman. Pontificorum que* jwpos vocamus (Witt, inb. 1536, with preface by Luther; also Bale, 156*, 8vo). Sec Burnet, History ofthe Reformat- lion, i, 474, 477 ; Fox, Book of Martyrs; Collier, Eccl.

Barnes, William, a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, was born near Cookstown, Tyrone county, Ireland, about Easter, 1795. At an early age he came with some relatives to America, and resided for some time at Baltimore, where, at nineteen, he was converted, and was admitted into the church. Soon after, his talents attracted the attention ofthe Rev. S G. Roszcl, and he was called out to labor on a circuit. He was admitted into the Baltimore Conference in 1817, and for nearly fifty years preached, almost with- out intermission and with extraordinary success, as an itinerant minister, in Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Nearly forty years of this time he spent within the bounds of the Philadel- phia Conference, the rest in the Baltimore and Pitts- burg Conferences. His mind was active and imagi- native to a rare degree, and his preaching was very original and striking; few men of his time were more popular or useful. A poetical vein was manifest in his style, and he left a number of pieces of verse in manuscript. lie died suddenly November 24, 1865. Among his manuscript remains are a number of ser- mons and controversial writings, which are now (1866) preparing for the press. The Rev. Dr. Castle, in a discourse at 1 1 it? funeral of Mr. Barnes, thus spoke of him: "In the world he was not ofthe warld. He
