This will afford a greater protection to the produce of British America than it has hitherto enjoyed. The Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge I is about to erect a Missionary House at St. Mar- tin's, Scilly, similar to that of Tresco. It was announced on Monday in the city, that an Association has been formed for working the mines in the provinces of Rio de la Plata, by which is understood all that territory known under the Spanish dominion by the name of the Vieeroyalfy of Buenos Avres. This Company is established iu conformity with a decree passed at Buenos Ayres, authorizing the Minister of State and for Foreign Affairs lo take measures for its formation in this I country, who has irl consequence transmitted an | official communication to Messrs. Hnllett Brothers 1 and Co. through whom all the arrangements will J be carried into effect. j The Mevagissey Bank of Messrs. Philip Ball 1 and Son suspended its payments on Thursday. Some months ago, a respectable stationer, who resides near one of the Inns of Court, was robhed of stamps to a very large amount, and of the halves of I Bank- notes for the sum of £ 1100. lie has a shop I detached from his dwelling, and, indeed, not at all I communicating with it. In an iron safe in his shop, I he kept stamps, amounting in value to between J £ 2,000 and £ 3,000, and in other places of security in J the shop he kept the haiveS of eleven £ 100 notes of the Bank of Englaud. The other halves he^ kept iu his house for the greater security. The locks of the shop door and of the safe and drawers were all of the best description, but they proved of no avail against the ingenuity of the thieves. The stamps and the halves of the notes disappeared one night— at least 1 they were missed one morning. The safe and j drawers were found locked, but the door of the shop was ipen. Skeleton keys liad been used, for there | was no mark of violence whatever upon the locks £ land the smith who examined the premises declared | that the thieves must have made several visits to the. J shop before they could have succeeded in ransacking I it so effectually. The usual measures were resorted I to to accomplish the recovery of the proper! v, by information to the police, and offer of reward. No j one, however, seemed to he tempted by tin- reward. J At length the stationer received information that it J was possible, for him to get back his stamps, if he would exercise a certain degree of liberality towards those into whose hands they had chanced to fall. He expressed his readiness to give £ 100 for the restoration of his property; but this offer was j laughed at. The fellows w ho were in possession of the property were not to be satisfied without the other halves of the notes for £ 1100, as a remuneration for their trouble in taking care of the stamps. This j monstrous proposition startled the stationer, who, j however, gave 110 positive refusal, but appointed a I negociatnr. The negociation occupied a consider- I able length of time, and of course without one of the I solicitors regularly employed on occasions of this I kin I nothing could he. done. The thieves were I besought to he merciful. They would not abate a I tittle of their demand, and determined, if the halves j of tiie noles were not forthcoming within a certain I time, the stamps should he disposed of for £ 1,800. | This threat had the desired effect. It was ascertain- I ed that the stamps were, along with an immense J quantity of other stamps, in a sort of < c hell," or J receiver's den, near Houndsditch ; but this fact was j not, known tin til the halves were giveir Up bv the j stationer,. w ho was desired to lake no notice of any 1 thing that might occur the next evening-, but to j attend to his business as usual. The stationer ac » I cordingly waited patiently in his shop the whole nf I the day, but nobody appeared, On going- over to J his desk, however, he stumbled over a large bundle I of something on the ground ; aud on examining it, j he found that he had in his possession every stamp I he had lost. The thieves expressed themselves j satisfied at the result of the negoeiation* as, ai » iwrugh I they were not paid the usual per centage for their j trouble, they got the £ 1100, without being obliged J to degrade themselves by employing police officers I ou the occasion.

SIR, IN 18lG, 1 contracted a certain Com- plaint, and was under a Doctor's Hands two Months, for which I paid two Guineas; hut getting worse, I left him, and went to another Doctor about one Month, hut getting worse and worse, I went to another Medical Man two Months; at one Time he told me I was cured, and about four Months after I broke out worse than ever. I repeated my Attend- ance upon that Gentleman, but got still worse; 1 then went to an Infirmary for ten Weeks, ami underwent two Salivations, but instead of getting better, I got worse and worse. I then applied to you, and having taken one Bottle, I received En- couragement to proceed, and by taking six small Bottles, T have received a safe Cure, for which I return you my humble and hearty Thanks. I am, Sir, your's, respectfully, T. G****#*. SIR,— I am a native of Shrewsbury, in the county of Salop, by trade a cordwainer; was afflicted with a dimness of sight for above twelve years ; was inca- pable of working for two years; no human skill could be found for my relief, till I heard of your Ploughman's Drops; I made atrial, and, for the good of the blind be it spoken, I found great relief hy taking two small bottles; and I continued till I entirely received a safe cure. I am now in the decline of life, and can see and work as well as I could 14 yearsago. Gratitude induces me to publish it for many reasons. Witness my hand, 19th of March, 1823, ^ Witness, J.

SINGULAR CASE OF LUNACY.— fn re Mill- son, a supposed f. unatic.— A commission de lunatico inquirendo was held in Woolwich, which excited the utmost curiosity. The subject of enquiry was one of the oldest farmers in Kent, possessed of property worth between £ 40,000 and . t' 40,000. Dr. Phdli- more, Mr. Evanee, and Mr. Whitmore^ presided as j Commissioners, and a Jury was sworn. Mr. Nokes i and Mr. Beames attended professionally for the heir I of the supposed lunatic ft appears, from what is | matter of notoriety in the neighbourhood, that the supposed lunatic, T. Millson, sen; is a wealthy further and grazier, who for the last forty years earned ort business with great success at Plumstead, in Kent, where he rents several farms, and owns considerable property. He was considered as shrewd and clever a mart in his way of life as any in the county, lie is now in his 86th year, has one son, T. Millson, the petitioner, nnd one daughter, the wife of R. Cle^ merits, the respondent, in the case. This daughter is six years older than the petitioner. She is totally destitute of personal attractions, and had but few j suitors. However, in the year 1805, her father hap- I pened to hire Clements, a labourer, at Croydon fair, I to work upon his farm* and brought him into the j house. This man thought proper to fall in love with I his master's daughter, dispensing with u the throiie I on her back." which had completely removed all j fear of competitors. The voting lady listened, and I yielded to his prayers. They ran away, and wer « j married T. Slillson, her brother, used his. guod I offices with the old man to obtain forgiveness for the j girl, and succeeded. The fond couple were admitted I to Mr. M.' s house and affectiin, and an allowance J was liberally made. Clements* situation was greatly j improved; he neither Worked so hard nor fared so [ roughly as he had been accustomed to do; hut I exerted himself wonderfully to gain the good will of I his father- in- law^ ami was frugal and attentive to Ihe I interests of the farm. He has several children by J his wife. The farmer's son, Thomas, look White 1 Hurt Farm from bis father, whose roof he quitted, J leaving him under the care of Clements ami his wife. I Clements persevered in his assiduities, and rose in j the opinion of the old man, whilst the son, who was j distant, was observed to decline in his father's J favour. Five years ago, the old father had a fit of I apoplexy, and an attack of paralysis, w hich affected J his speech and his reason. From this change in the old man's health, Clements assumed the active j management of the farm — superintended the labour- J ers^ and was always by the side of his father- in- law, j advising and obeying him. About 1822, the son, who had sustained losses, and f » lt the pressure of | agricultural distress, found his farm very nnprofit- I able, nnd applied for assistance ; but his father j behaved with harshness to him; and took away the 1 farm, allowing him £ 1 a- week to maintain his family. Clements assumed openly the active control of ali the property. He or his wife regularly re- ceived the rents, and paid the men. The son, on the contrary, sunk in deep distress, and, seven months ago, was compelled to apply for parochial relief to Mr. Cleaves; who, upon hearing the case, went to see the supposed lunatic, but Clement9 refused to permit an interview. By some means or other, the son succeeded in getting a petition before the Lord Chancellor, and a Commission issued, on w hich the petition was founded. Several respectable witnesses deposed that Mr. Millson had been childish for seve- ral years. Two farmers stated, Hust he did not know a cow from a horse. Mr. Millson was examined himself by Dr. Phillitnore. Being asked his age, he answered, thirty. six."— Dr. Philliniore summed up the evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict, finding— lhat T. MillsoU, sen. had been of unsound mind since Sept. 18- 20. The management of the I lunatic's estate will, in the usual manner, devolve vn his son. I^ Ott the CUKE of WOUNDS, Ul- _ cerated Legs.

Soin'e of the members of the Corporation, who ajnr at rivalling th6ir great pre- decessors, and look forward somewhat confidently to the houoVirs of tire " largest bed in the city, do not, however, - approve of the proposal; and ac- cordingly it !" lifts Ittjeh discussed in the councils of • the civic rnlerS'of rhe east- cud of the world, with • - all.. that?. good sense and wisdom which ever dis- tinguish thei. r debates, The case was first agitated . in a Committee of ( jeiie. ral Purposes, a. deputation was'appointed to visit and inspect the bed, and . after their report,-, the matter was regularly argued in all its hearings'. The cost of the bed was stated ' t » i have heen.£ 3,( 1() t), and if it were brought to tiie hammer, it would' not" fetch a hundred.; that it ' might be cleahsed, fumigated, re- dyed and re- quired, the. curtains could be neatly patched will . the window curtains* and new window curtain* purchased. for the very moderate sum of £ 800. The Committee, of General Purposes, after heariii opin. ioiis, and collecting evidence, decided ac- cordingly that the old bed should be repaired. But oile deliberation ou so. very large a matter was by no means sufficient. The Court of Common Council again sa' in deep deliberation on it 01 Friday week, and some more light having been thrown on the state of the bed, it being considered impossible to' remove ail the tenants, who possess its honours without being. elected by the citizens, it was finally resolve'! fo" expel it and them'from :! ie Mansion House. Thus future Lord Mayors arid1 Lady Mayoresses are to be condemned by the de- generacy'of one magistrate to', sleep in an Ordinary bed, as if they were no more I'lan a man and woman. The State Bed, with all its ornaments, living and dead, is accordingly to be sold by auction. Mr. Savage, a- member of the Comm- Council, staled in the oonrfe of the proceeding • that he had examined the bed as closely a. s- he durst; and assured the, Court that I he inmates had presented themselves to his a'sloaish'ed vision in incalculable V umber, .

From the. stale meat of Mr. Danger. The Liverpool Mercury of Friday says—" The paragraph respecting MissPatoh's marriage origin a ed at our office ; and, as an Oxford journalist has questioned the accuracy of our information.^ and as we have some regard for editorial character, we - shall state the ground upon which we pledge ourselves to the fact, en passant, that we deem our authority on this occasion as good, at leasts as that of the Oxford Herald. Mr. Webbe, tile composer, \ Vhose . pupil Miss Fat on, was for several years, re- ceived the information <) f her marringe, stated in thit'MerCvry of October 8, from the lady herself. It was Commuicated by letter to Mr. Egerton Smith er, Mrs. Webbe. This is as direct 6' hjx't) n^ I of in for mat ion" as can. be welf imagined ; rCnd. whether the nuptials were ac- tually celebrated in Ox ford or in its neighbourhood, we are hound to believe the main fact. of the mar- riage itself; we have too good'an opinion of the lady principally. interested to believe her capable of deceiving Mr. Webbe or any one else."

Fieldhouse, a poor . man, who lately occupied a miserable cottage 011 Bast Moor, near Wakefield j bu t who belonged to the township of Oiilton. There appearing to have been great negligence on the part of the overseer of tiie township to which he bolonged, the inquest was adjourned to the following day, to give an opportunity for a more complete investigation of tiie business. It then appeared that the poor man, who was a widower, with three sma< l children, bad been iii aiid unable to do any work for five or six weeks. During this time the overseer, as he him- self deposed, had called upon him about a. month before his deajh, and given. hitn 5s, and the next day sent the town apothecary to him, who also left him 5s. more. From this time, he had no further relief from him till the Friday before his deatl', when he again sent him 5s. On the previous Tues- day, at the instigation of a gentleman by whom the poor man had been relieved, Mr. Dunn, the apo- thecary to tiie tVakefield Dispensary, visited him This gentleman stated to the Coroner and hjs, jury, that lie found the deceased v^ ry ill, in a most miserable and . filthy situation, laid on something which could, not with any propriety be called a bed, and without any covering biit a dirty sack. He saw him too on the Wednesday and Friday follow iug, and administered to him such medicine* as he thought his case required, giving him also money • which he received for his relief.' The poor man, iii the course of his conversation with him, said he had been so ill- treated by the overseer,, that, he • would starve before he would apply to him again. This gentleman expressed his belief, that if proper attention had been paid to the poor man by the overseer, and proper relief afforded him, he would have been alive then ( at the time of the inquest) The wretchedness of the poor man's situation, and the neglect he had experienced, were confirmed by the testimony of some of his neighbours. The Jury, after a short deliberation, gave the following verdict:— u That the deceased came to' his death in . his cottage ot East Modr, from the wilful ncgle of the,. overseers of the poor of Onlton and the said Jurors further find and declare a deodand of £ 5 to be , paid by Mr. William Farrer, the over, seer of Oultou, to the lord of the manor of Wake field, but recommended by the jury to be given up to the Wakefield Dispensary " The poor man was 54 years of age, and his deiid b rdy exhibited a singular specimen of misery, being literally no. thing but skin and bone. — fVa/ ceJteid Paper, in the following classes : 434 whose respective balances did not exceed £ 20 each. 2G4 ditto above £ 20and not exceeding £ 50. 159 ditto above ,£' 50 and not exceeding £ 100... 88 ditto above £ 100 and not exceeding £ 150. 36 ditto above £ 150 a'lii not exceeding £ 200. 20 ditto exceeding 200 Pounds.

CAUTION.^— A vagrant has been going round to the gentlemen's houses in the neighbourhood of Oswestry, and behaving very improperly in reftis ing to go away. He represents himself as a native of Tiverton, in Devonshire, and as having served 31 the navy. He is about forty years of age, five feet four inches high, sallow complexion, hazle yes, dark hair, flannel jacket, and dark velveteen breeches, ft is hoped that this offender may be mmitted to prison before he accomplishes further lepredations. ( Jnder the 5th of Geo IV. chap. 83, he is liable to the punishment of whipping, aud some example is wanted to prevent sturdy beggars from extorting money in so shameful a manner. ANOTHER IMPOSTOR.—' A young man, appa- rently betweeii 20 and 30, years of age, about five feet five inches high, rather dark complexion, well but not very stout built, in dark coat, waist- coat, and trovvs'ers, and wearing boots,- altogether of shabby genteel appearance, has been levying contributions on the benevolent m the vicinity of Madeley, in this county. He is extremely civil, aud pressing beyond belief. fie says he is in great distress, and states that he has petitioned Government for relief, bnt without effect.— On being refused relief at one gentleman's house, who threatened to have hirh apprehended, he went to the house of a- lady a few yards distant, where he had the audacity to make use of that very gentleman's name as recommending bin* to her benevolence !— He carries a petition with him, and is very urgent that it may be perused.

At a Meeting of the, County Galway Branch of tlie Hibernian Bible Society^, the Very Reverend the Dean . of Dromore, the Rev. JDenis Browne,' and John L. Reilly, Esqf. were, deputed on the part of the Committee, to present the following Address to his Grace the Archbishop Of Tuani To tlis Grace the Archbishop of Tuam, fyc. The Coirimrttee of the County of Gal way Auxiliary Bible Society, wotild, . with justice, be regarded, as insensible to the grand cause which they have tfie honour to advocate, if they did not. take advantage of the opportunity afforded ' hem, by their first monthly Meeting since their anniversary, to " address your Grace. . With the most sincere sentiments of respect and gratitude, they would, now.., approach you ; a respect heightened by that onion of manly firmness and Christian meekness, with which you supported the regulations of; the Society, at our late anniversary ; and. a gratitude, which, though at « ll times kindled in our bosoms by your Grace's many tokens of kind- ness and approbation, yet, glows with peculiar emotions, at this period, not only by retracing your faithfulness to the cause, when the sun- shine of popularity brightened upon it, but by finding, i'n this hour of seeming darkness, that GOD has raised up such an instrument to co- operate With Us," and animate us, to go forward, in our work and " labour of love." In patronising a Society, whose object it is tjo scatter with unsparing hand, the Bread of Everlasting Life, your Grace was influenced by the same philan- thropy which, not long since, led you to arrest the progress of famine as it stalked across our land. The heart which sympathised in the temporal, was touch- ed with th& spiritual wants of the people, and the same hand which opened to relieve the one, held forth asan antidote to the oth£ rvthe lecord of eternal life. The Committee of the County of Galway Auxiliary Biblfc Society must ever regard it as welt a privilege, as a duty, to co- operate iu a measure so beneiiuenf; convinced, aV we also are, that the inspired volume is the birth- right of all Cbristi^ ns^ the palladium of the Church of GOD, and therefore the glory of that Church; . which ranks your Grace among her highest; Prelates. The very ebullition of corru pt passions, eHeited, by man's opposition to the Word of GOD, as it shows how much our nature needs to be transformed, beepmes an additional motive to our perseverance, And wherever that word is made effectual to the good of man, we are thus convinced, that to GOD alone the honour belongs, aud that 11e should receive all the praise. HIS GRACE'S ANSWER. MY LORD AND GKNTLEMBN~ I have just received your very gratifying Address ; and if I could for one moment be depressed or discouraged in - tlie great cause we have iu hand, all gloom would instantly be dispelled, by the cheering and unanimous adherence of the Committee of the County of Galway Auxiliary Bible Society, to their principles and regulations, and their firm and unshaken resolution to go on with me ( under the blessing of GOD) in this work of mercy. if we look back to the first days of Christianity, and observe what its early teachers suffered ; if we cali to mind the bitter trials and persecutions ex- perienced by the Apostles in their Christian warfare, can 2o<? be surprised in our humble imitation of these inspired and holy ineu in our endeavours faithfully to spread abroad the blessed Gospel of . JESUS CHRIST: and in our offering to our poor, dark, ignorant countrymen, his " Holy Scriptures, which are able to make men wise unto salvation ;" can we be surprised, I say, at the feehle& impotent opposition . with tvhich we are ( more especially at ibis liuie) assailed. En- couraged as we are by the words of Gon himself? Deut. vi". v. 7,8,9—" These words which I ' command thee this day, shall be in thine heart, and thou shall teach them diligently unto thy children, and shal talk of them when thou walkest by the way, and when thou lyest down, and when thou-- risest up, a ltd thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, arid they, shalt be as frontlets between thine eyes, and thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates." Thus GOD commands all the people to write his word upon their very garments, upon their houses, and upon their gates - so that persons of all conditions might read them. Encouraged by the ex press command of our LOR D JESUS CHinsf-- John v. 39—" Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they re they which testify of me"— our LORD JESUS CHRIST speaks not only to Doctors and Teachers but also to the people. Encouraged by the Prophet addressing all the people o f the earthy ( Isaiah xxxiv. 10 v.) " seek ye out the Book of the Lord and read." By the com- mendation given to the Bereans who ( Actsxvii. 11.) searched the Scriptures daily, ( to know) whether hese things were so." By the Apostle St. Pant, in his instructions to Timothy ( 2. iii. 14, J5,) 44 Con- tinue thou in the things which thou hast learned, aud hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them, ami tliiit from a child thou hast known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make ihee wise unto salvation, through faith, which is in Jesus Christ." Further, by the same Apostle, who distinctly addresses the people^ in his Epistle to the Philippiaus ( i. 1.) w Paul aud Timothens, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the Saints that are in Christ Jesus, that are at Philippi, wilh the Bishops and Deacons." By Saint James, who addressed his Epistle to fi. 1.) " the Twelve Tribes \ whicb are scattered abroad " By Saint Peter, wliose first Epistle is addressed ( i. 1.) To, the strangers scat- tered throughout Pojitus, Galatia, t'appadoeia^ Asia, and Bitliyuia," And further, by his still more general address in bis second Epistle ( i. 1.) 44 Simon Peter, a serviint and Apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that har'e obtained like precious faith with us, through the righteousness of GOD and our Saviour JESUS CHRIST." And encouraged by the almost miraculous success in this our ( lay, with which the spread of the Scriptures all over the world, has been blessed; encouraged, I say, by this cloud of witnesses, and thus convinced an we are that it is the will of" GOD that his Holy Word should be read, and searched and studied daily, we will ( Jirmly but meekly9 rely- ing altogether upon the strength of our Lord JESUS CHRIST, aud fervently praying for the grace of his Holy Spirit to direct and guide us) continue to per- severe in our feeble endeavours to promote its uni- versal dissemination, until the Word of GOD, which is the rule of faith and morals, shall be placed within tbe reach of every human being, and every cottage iu ihe laud shall ( according to the declared wish of our late venerated and pious Sovereign) possess a copy of the Snored Volume. But white we are thus engaged in scattering with unsparing hand the Bread of Everlasting Life, I trust we are never unmindful ( according to the means entrusted to us by Provi- dence) of the temporal wants of our less- favoured fellow creatures. At all times we are awfully re- sponsible^ as to the use we make of the talents coin milled to our care; and although at one time the pressure of want may be more severe than at another, yet I most conscientiously feel that we are ever awar£ that " the poor shall never cease out of the land- that the poor we have always with us." But should the LORD again be ph ased to visit us with such a trying season of sore famine in the land, as that from which we are only now recovering, I fervently pray that he of his mercy may so order your hearts and my heart, that we may be found at our posts,, and that we may be led to join baud in hand in devoting <> ui time, our mind, and our money, to the relief of suffer; iug humanity— that we may be daily and hourly found, in the abodes of the naked, the diseased, the famishing, and the expiring, and that we may con- sider nothing done, while any one thing, within our power shall be left undone, to cheer, to comfort, to support the poor, the destitute, the unhappy. It is wilh pain I revert for one moment to the disgraceful scenes which passed at Loughrea, but in truth I must iu Christian charity and in Christian pity, deplore the conduct of that. Reverend Priest, who, although it was Well known, more than one day before our Anniversary, that he and others had ( Jetermined to apprise our proceedings ( solemnly in the presence of GOD, regardless of the awful account which he must one day give at the judgment . feat of CHRIST) de- clared, " That he came from Galway to the Meeting, tq. discuss the merits of the Society, with a mind perfectly free from prejudice, open to conviction, and ready, to adopt that line of conduct which should appear to him ( from the discussion), likely to benefit his flock ; that he was not opposed to tlie Bible Society, that, on the contrary, he did not know but lie might now become a member of it." Ill consistent with the non- acceptance of my twice repeated offer, of my twice repeated assurance% that it would give me pleasure, that it would give great pleasure ( after the business « f the Meeting should be concluded) to summon the Committee for any day, for any hour, and at any place% he aud those around him might think proper to appoint, when I would listen white ever they might wish to address me, and when we might ( uninterrupted by the noise and clamour which theu prevailed) calmly, and in good spirit, discuss any. question which might be at issue between s ; and further, that tiie public, might be made ac- uainted with all the proceedings, that a faithful n d / appx ov ed Re porter s I » o'utd be employed, to note down all that passed, faV insertion in the Irish and English Newspapers. . , It were well if that Reverehd. Gentleman, would, n a teachable and child- like spirit^ read that. Sacred Book, which he endeavours to withhold, from his hungering, and thirsting people. That solemn declaration^ sq at variance with his well- kuowij pur- pose of disturbing us, could not have resulted from such a study. I pray you to join with me, in sup- plication to the Throne of Grace, for this poor man's conversion, and that the unhappy flock, which are under his teaching, may be protected from the baneful effects of such unholy example.

Ass, 0ciation has effectually cleared the character of tlie Orange Societies. No one who reads its speeches— who looks at its deeds— who remembers' its attacks on the School and other Meetings'- wilt novv charge the party madness of related upon the Oraiigemen. Every one must now self,; that if no Orangemen existed, the Catho- lics \ y mi td be precisely what they now are. This is one point g- aiued towards the dissipation of public dehtsio'fe But the most important matter is thisthe Roman Catholic clergy, by their late conduct, con- vince USA that they .. believe the conversion of the people to. Protestantism to be a very practicable matter. They have, in effect, stated this to be their belief, and they are tUnch better acquainted with the matter than those Protestants who rail against ( Hn this point we think with them, aii. d'y? e'filler think, that if the Protestants and the government do their duty, great and glorious changes will" ere long take place in Ireland All accounts concur in stating, that a spirit of inquiry has talieij hold of the ' l. ower ' orders— that' they g^ ladly^ vvheiteVer they dare, accept the Scriptures and religions tracts, and send their children to the schools.,,. To discourage this, not to encourage it fo the utu| bst, would be little short of fratricide. We have- thought, that if any events should take place4 which should involve the Protestant and Oath^ hli clergj; in active religious controversy, and whicli- sivonld deeply interest the feelings of the people at large in the controversy, they would pro- duce incalculable good to Irejand/ Such events have unexpectedly— we would almost say provi- denti- taken p 1 ace, and we trust to Heaven that fhe most will be made of them. We hope, that if the clergy have heen unable to accomplish any, thing by preaching, they w; ill now accomplish much by writing. We hope that the Protestant mim^ tei4! si6f'all clenomi'natiohs will literally cover the surface of Ireland with pamphlets and tracts on this Question, respecting the reading of the Scrip, tuxes/ und the right of opinion and action. Argu. rneni, leaSoii, truth, justice, religion^ and the inter ests of tb^ people, are clearly with them, and the feelings of the people are in a high state of excite- the matter. We exhort the Socie- ties to pe^ eVere zealously and boldly. No matter what the; Association and the thobs may do, an immense mass exists between, who will both read and reflect. A victory cannot be gained without a battle. Disregard party rage— push it higher- it has only to reach its height to destroy itself— the sooner it reaches this, the sooner will that, re- action ta. kes^ la^ e which will yield the most splendid bene- fits to i reland. 1 f Wesley and his preachers had not been every> vhere; mobbed., they would scarcely have made a single proselyte ; they were mobbed, and therefore they immediately became a mighty sect. Nothing could be better calculated for disgusting the reflecting, religious part of the Catholics with their clergy; than the conduct which these. have lately exhibited.. • One word more touching this stupid outcry against proselytism. The State has a vital interest in converting. the people of Ireland to Protestantism. This is a truth which no one will deny, save these simple people who cannot discover that religious creeds affect political conduct.; and it certainly proves that to promote, and not to oppose, prose- iytisnT, is the duty of the government. The govern- rrre# t eef tatiHy ought nof to endea votir to make pi o- selytes " by compulsion, and it ought not to insist on the teaching of any particular creed in the schools ; but this is no argument against its encouraging proseiytism by wise and proper means. However, whatever its wishes may be, we know, that nothing n our whole system will authorise it to prevent others from making proselytes. The - Church of Epgland,. aml every sect and party in Great Britain, are eternally assailed by those who seek to make proselytes from them; if they, complained of this, they vvi'uid be only answered by public scorn, and we protest against that, which is denied to them being conceded to the Roman Catholics. We pro- test against any protection from proselytism being granted to the Popish Church of Ireland, which is refused to the Church of England What, in the name of common sense, is Catholicism, that it should, thus be hallowed and protected from party- warfare-— that, while every other creed in ttie land lna. y be safely assailed, an attack upon it is, to be regarded as a state offence ? Where is the evidence of its truth, — what are those who profess it,— and vVbcre ar< it'the benefits that it yields to the empire? Away tb& r with this wretched < Sant against prose- lytism in Ireland, unless it be inijendeil to act upon it here, ? lnd thereby to , destroy; inquiry and dis- cussion ! i If the people of Ireland refuse the School: and the Scriptures, let them : - they have a right to do it;— but the Protestants have as much right to offer, these, as they have to--; re fuse them. The Roman Catholic Church is the grand cause which makes Ireland what, it is. Its grinding tyranny makes the people barbarians, and its in safialiJeselfishness and ambition make them rebels It has only to speak, and Ireland will be instructed enlightened, reformeil, and tranquillized, and re^ conciled with Great Britain. Were it to concede that injts discipjine, which would at once remove the_, disabi! ities, it would. still posses a far greater share of privilege, authority, and power, than any otjjex . corporation in the laud, civil or religions, but this it obstinately refuses. It must be indei pendent . of, and above, the government; lo . stand on an equality with our other bodies, is beneath its scorn, it must be lawless. To administer to its aggrandizement, and to preserve its appalling des pot ism, the weal of both Ireland and Great Britain must be sacrificed Its clergy call themsel ves minis ters of religion, they blasphemously usurp the attri butes of God, and still, instead of combining i attempts, to instruct and reform the people, they resist them with all their might— instead of teach . ing religion, they teach wickedness— instead promoting* peace and harmony, they promote war and animosity. They are at this moment standing in the Hi" U tank of political faction, addressing the most false, seditious, and inflammatory statements to then* ollowers, and leading the people to tumult and crime. Well may such men wish to suppress the New Testament; for no contrast could possibly be moTTT^ ti- iking than that which may be found betiyeen their words aud conduct, and those whicl - are recorded of Jesus Christ.

SotiVet'se| shire.- i- A Cone spor. dent, not quite so much the victim of a Jesuit's coils in this vicinity as he is thought to he, has informed us, that this announcement of* nine pro. selyles at Sheptou Mallett, is a mere invention of the enemy, to counterbalance, with a miracle, the assertion of Alderman Veuables, at a Bible Society Meeting in Loudon, of the conversion of one Catholic lo ' Pro I est a nf ism'.—— iiri at ol J on mat. At the Aggregate Meeting of ihe Roman Catho- lics, oil ihe 2d inst. a Sir. Shiel got up and made a Most inflammatory speech, which we have shortly noticed , in our 4th page.— All Ihe pith of Mr. Shicl's speech has been very ' careful! i/ copied by the Radical prints of Ibis country ; and, as a prin cipal point in it, ( here is one laic which refers lo a poor man having,' at Ihe risk of his life, saved several persons' from being drowned. The tale goes on lo say,' that Ibis deserving individual's case was represent, rdT. t'o Mr. Peel, then the Irish' Secretary, and as tbe jet of I\ lr. Shicl's statement, it adds, before ihe case cojild beiioiiced, Mr. Peel's attendant inquired, in Mr. Peel's name, Whether the man who bad acted thus humanely was a Pro. lestant ? Mr. Shiel staled that in order lo obtain any favour or reward a man must he a Protestant. To those who know any thing of Mr. Peel il must be unnecessary to say ihat snch a lale as we have ad verted lo is a falsehood. It is, therefore, a strik- ing proof of barefaced villainy and impudence in those who, while they re- print such a lale, and endeavour lo give it a blacker colouring by bringing Mr. Peel himself, instead of his attendant ( ns was Ihe original slory) in contact wilh Ihe narrator of the pretended dialogue oil the occasion, term those persons " ignorant copiers" who adopt a different view lo themselves of ( lie present proceedings of the Roman Catholics — The JVaterforil Mail, a paper published ou the spot where the poor man saved Ihe lives in question, has issued a statement, which at once proves that this deserving individual was liberally rewarded by the Government, and now occupies a very large farm. The. whole dia- logue hatched up and related by Mr. Shiel, is a " pure FABRICATION."— So much for " ignorant copiers." A PROTESTANT BIBLE!— HOW much the Roman Catholics dread Ihe circulation of Ihe Protestant Bible may be learnt from the last treatise published by Ihe present titular Roman Catholic Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin. He tells us, that a Protestant Bible having been left at ihe dwelling of a peasant iu his diocese, Ihe man became dreadfully alarmed at Ihe presence of snch a dangerous inmate, and, when night Came, he took it up with a pair of tongs, not wishing to pollute his hands with its touch, and went and buried il in his garden .'.'— Aud what comment docs the Roman Catholic' Bishop make on this fact ? Why, he says—" I admire his zeal; nav, I admire il highly ; and if ever 1 meet him, I will reward him for it !.'" The Catholics can now no longer he called party they liave resolved themselves into a faction — a religious and political faction of the wors character. The conduct of. their clergy, allowing for difference; of^ circumstances, is even worse than that of the . clergy of Spain— the principles an deeds of their lay- leaders, allowing for diHeren of means and power, were never' surpassed enormity hy those of any despot that ever disgraced a sceptre. What would be the consequence of in trodueiitig a tremendous faction like this into ou political arena ? Let it he remembered, that the ferocious mobs which put down hy brute force the Bible, Missionary, and School Meetings iu Ireland, were beaded by the leaders of' the Association and the Clergy. Are these people to be numbere among,. our rulers, and to be united with those wh have olir liberties in their keeping > Are our Bibl Missionary, and School Meetings to be suppressed ? — Are our lower orders to be deprived of the Scrip- tures ? — Are our clergy to be subjected to insult and violence in the discharge of their duty ?— Is our right of opinion lo betaken away?— Are we to be prohibited from reading any thing save what tbe Caiholies- Htn^ y^- peenHt ?— And . are we to be made the slaves and minions of a despotic, unprincipled Popish hierarchy ? If not, keep those from Parli i- meut and the ministry, who are openly straining every nerve to bring all this upon ns. Some of the Paris journals sympathise with the Irish Catholics, and strenuously encourage the Association to perseverance in their proceeding's. IHSofcUancoufi Sntclltgencf.

PrtoFiTS OF BRKEDING— It creates no little urprise with foreigners and people unacquainted ith the subject, why England has become so famous for its breed of horses. Whether it be owing to the temperature of the climate, or the excellence of its pastures, is a question which may be discussed at some future period ; but certain it that the sale of horses has become a most mportant article of commerce with foreign states, and one of the strongest pillars of that national superiority w hich we so pre- eminently enjoy over other nations. In former ages, Arabia was so • euowued for its breed, that they were, deemed exclusively the property of Emperors, Kings, and people of high degree— a sort of luxury from vVhitfh the middle classes were completely shut out; but Arabia must now yield the palm to Yorkshire; and even other countries, such as America, France, Spain,. and Russia, striving which shall be foremost in point of improvement, are at an immeasurable distance behind us. At a late meeting, Glasgow, for promoting subscriptions for a monument to the hite James Watt, a speaker observed, that 44 every station, every profession was open to merit. We once had a primate of England who was the son of a butcher; we now have a Lord Chancellor who is the son of a coal- dealer; and a Secretary of Stale who is the son of a linen- printer." At Chelmsford Assizes, on Wednesday last, Charles Clarke was indicted for feloniously killing and slaying Thomas Young, at Great ChishaH, on 19th of October last ; and John Burrows and Jesse Fowler were indicted as accessaries to the same felony and manslaughter. It appeared in evidence that the prisoners, the deceased, and several other men, labourers in husbandry, had met on the night of the iOth of October, at a public- house in Great Civishall, to spend their harvest money. Between one and two : n the morning they left the house, in a state of ntoxication, for the purpose of returning to their respective homes. In their way home, some of the party began to play rough tricks upon each other, such as jostling and slapping one another's faces. The deceased did not appear to have taken any part hi this sport, but the prisoner Clarke challenged him to fight, and pushed him into a ditch. Goaded by this act of aggression, he was prevailed upon to fight. Clarkp and he stripped, and the other pri- soners immediately became seconds. About eight or nine rounds took place, and in the last the deceased fell insensibly on the gTound. He was taken home in that state, and died next day. Upon opening the head and examining the body, it appeared that a blood- vessel, had been ruptured iu the former, and that in the latter one of t he shoulder- bones had been broken, aud on the back were marks apparently proceeding from kicks, which he was supposed to have received whilst on the ground. The prisoner Burrows, who was the deceased's second, had endeavoured to prevail upon the la tie not to tight. An excellent character was also given to him by the parish- officers, as a sober, industrious, and well- conducted man. Mr. Justice Burrough, in summing up the case to the jury, said it appeared to him' that the affray which terminated so fatally was what is called a fair fight. At all events, it was not like any of those c- ises which had of late disgraced the country — he meant prize- fights ; in which hev was sorry to observe men were pitted against each other to fight for a purse, in the presence of thousands of spec- tators, amongst whom were persons whose stations, fortunes, and education, he would have supposed would incline them to more honourable and gentle, manly amusements. For his own part, he heartily wished that some example vvoutd be made of per sous actively engaged in, or by their countenance encouraging, such disgraceful contests. Should case ever come under his judicial notice when death was the result, he thought it his duty to declare, that he should carry the law to its utmost extent. By a late Act of Parliament ( 3d Geo. IV. c. 38), Judges were empowered to sentence offend- ers guilty of manslaughter to transportation for life. The degrading practice which had now be- come so prevalent, rendered it necessary to make a severe example, for the purpose of checking it; and his Lordship had come to the resolution, iu com- mon with the other Judges, to inflict the severest penalties upon offenders of this description. He was happy, however, to say, that it was very much owing to the good conduct of the magistracy in most counties of England, that this barbarous spe. cies of exhibition bad been considerably abated There were, however, he lamented, certain excep- tions, which had a contrary tendency. In his opinion, 4ny magistrate, ' who, either bv his open countenance, or passive tolerance, in any respect contributed to the encouragement of such scenes, was unfit for his station in the commission.

MUR!> E » .— The following particulars of nn atrocious murder, near Kingswood llill, Gloucester- shire, ou the- ilia lit of Saturday, ihe - 27111. tilt, are copied From tbe Gloucester Journal:— A large party had been drinking iu a public- house, cuffed the' Tennis Court, near Wnrmley ; imd amongst them was Isaac Garden or G. iriloll, 11 labouring man, and a man named Caiuts. There had beeusoiue previous quarrel between these two, and the dispute being now renewed, high words ensued between Gordon and Caines, and the friends of the latter, About ten o'clock Gordon left the house in company with one Prmten. They had not gone far when Gordon was knocked down by some one. lie then returned lo Hie house, where lie proposed staying till all ttie party was gone home, as lie was afraid lie should be murdered by some of them. All the party went away about eleven o'clock, and then Gordon' wished the landlord good night, left the house, aud the landlord and his family prepared lo go ( 0 bed, but were slum laruted by Beiijainiu Briltain coming to the house for, a ligh', as lie hail found a man in the rood either dead or drunk. Having piocured a light, they went to the s'pol, about ( 30 or 70 yards frouf the public- house, w here the unfortunate Gordon was discovered lying ou the road ou his face, and quite dead. He had received a desperate blow on the back- of his head, the bone of w hich was beaten in ou the bruin, and which must have iiMaiitly deprived him of life, and he had also been slabbed iu ihe forehead in. two peaces. A clasp knife was found open close to the body, With the point broken off. On . Tuesday week, au inquest was held on thrbudv, before W. j. Ellis, Esq. and a very- respectable Jury, w lreii,- after a long examination of many witnesses, ihe Jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder agtiinst some person of persons unknown. The pole with which it is sup-* posed the unforiunnteSnan was murdered, was dis- covered in the morning pushed through the hedge, close to where the body was found, And was proved to have been d. Sed at the public .. house . as- a clothes- post, and , to have been taken up out of the garden. Caines and six others were taken into custody, and underwent several examinations before ( lie Magis- trates. On Wednesday last they were brought up for final examination at the Sessions Room, at Lawiord's Gate. The Magistrates present ' were, Gabriel' Gold- ney, Jos. Parker, John Haythorne, Henry Brooke^ Stephen Cave, and John Savage, Esquires; wi - after a full investigation of all the cireuui> tances of the case from the testimony of nearly twenty viru nesses, Mark Whiting, . fames ( aities alias Ihtsh^ Isaac Brit ton, Robert England i Samuel Peacock, Francis Brittonf and Thomas iVihuot, were fully committed rf> the. County Gaol to take their trials for the murder at the next Assizes. It is but justice to observe, that the Magistrates have been indefatigable iii their exertiousto discover and bring 1U justice the perpetrators of this inhuman murder. POACHERS.— A most daring outrage was com^ mitted on Wednesday night week by poachers in a wood belonging to the Duke of Norfolk, at Lopham, About midnight one of the keepers heard ihe' report of guns, and immediately went with two others in pursuit, of the intruders. They came up with four men, who we're all armed, nnd with horrid impre- cations threatened to shoot, the first person who should approach tliein The keepers called on them to lay'down their guns and decide the combat with less dead I y weapons ; but this the'v refused-. to do, and when the head- keeper was w ithin two or three yards of thein, one of the poachers fired, and wounded him slightly iu the shoulder. He instantly fired in return, and shot the villain behind, sous to prevent his escape; but the others made off ( after one of ihem pulled his trigger, which fortu uately missed fire), leaving their wounded confe- derate aud two guns, The gamekeeper's wound. ife doing very well, but the poacher is at present uAi- able to he femoved. Two of the others were ap- prehended on Friday uighf, and on Monday fully committed to Nwrwieh Castle. The name of the man who was shot is Gill, the others taken are Jdjul Mutter and Josepii King, Tbe fourth, named Hay ward, is still at larg>, and a reward is offered for his apprehension. The Robbery at the Stratford Manke understand that Messrs. Oldaker and Co. have re- covered the greater part of the notes, & c. of whitili they were robbed. It appears that Soon after the " robbery, tHey deceived a letter from London, in which they w'ere informed that the property would be restored if " a proper consideration'* were given for it; rf kind of negbciation was in consequence carried on, and the parties having come to an under- standing, the Rank received on Saturday last a parcel, containing ihe fnncipal part of the slbleii property.'—- The persons who committed this rob- bery were no donbt practised London thieves* it is supposed that three were concerned; they en- tered the Bank by taking a pannel out of the door, aud while engaged inside, supplied the place of the pannel by a piece of thin board, painted to imitate the door ; they found the keys of the various boxes, & c. so that it was unnecessary to force any locks,. There is a strong suspicion that a person residing in ihe neighbourhood was concerned itv planning the robbery,. No one slept in the B. wik, wtsidi the pluuderev. 8 were uo doubt aware of.

Well may Mr. O'Connell, in his address totiie* 4 Louder classes of the Irish people," remind them of their 44 excel- lent and matchless clergy," and inculcate moSt implicit obedience to their advice, w hich u they are nud to respect and obey." This " excellent and matchless clergy" are doing the work of the Associ- every corner of Iielaud. Nine- tenths of the subscriptions are transmitted through the hands of parish priests.

Here is a criterion f the feeling that has been excited ; and it is worth while to remark, as a closing observation, that these enormous contributions of above one thousand pounds per week, are levied and cheerfully paid in a country which, only two years ago, when famine was upon it, came whining and supplicating to English hu- manity for the means to purchase food. What sudden influx of wealth has since burst upon them, that they can now pour into the coders of the Asso- ciation those thousands which, in the summer and autumn of 18- 22, would have mitigated the horrors of disease aud famine ? Does perspective rebellion touch their hearts more nearly than present hunger and approaching death? Could the wailiugs of famished and famishing children— of dying parents nnd drooping kindred — he heard with more than stoical apathy, while the appeal of demagogues is found irresistible? Sin, Some Roman Catholics having of late revised the calumny so often exploded, that the Clergy of the Church of England are uot regularly ordained ; perhaps the following Note attached to a Sermon preached in this town a few years ago, which briefly stales the argument, may serve to assist some of your readers iu forming a correct opinioA Upon the subject. Your's, & c. A LAYMAN. Shrewsbury, Dec. 8. " The claim of the Church of England to be a sound branch of the Catholic Church rests upon . lie orthodoxy of her faith, and the apostolical antiquity of her discipline, of which last the validity of the orders of her clergv forms the chief part:— and as this is a point against which our great adversary directs, and has long directed, her principal attack ; asserting that the English clergy have no just title to exercise the offices of the priesthood, and thus perveriing the ignorant and unwary; it will not. be foreign to the purpose of this discourse, to state, with all possible brevity, the real state of the case.; extracted chiefly from Le Courayer's celebrated treatises ou this subject. u The validity of the orders of our clergy depends upon the validity of Parker's consecration as arch- bishop ; than which no historical fact whatever rests on a firmer basis of proof. He was consecrated in the first year of Queen Elizabeth's reign by fou bishops, two of whom had been consecrated in the reign of Henry VIII. by bishops of the Roman communion, and the other two in the reign of Edward Vf. by Archbishop Cranmer, who was himself consecrated by bishops of the same com- munion. No link, therefore, is wanting in his canonical descent. The story of his being conse- crated by Scory alone, at a tavern iu Cheapside, was never heard of for half a century after th- event: and is not once hinted at by Dr. Harding the eager and zealous antagonist of Bishop Jewel,, or by Sanders, who scrupled no calumny to vilify our Reformation. The merit of the invention appears to rest with one Champneys, who probably thought that all the persons present at the ceremony had Rnnk into the grave, when he announced it in his book lie Vocatione Minist, : but the life of the Earl of Nottingham, who was present at Parker's conse oration, was protracted beyond the age of man, as if on purpose to confute the tale, and vindicate the authority of the record which attests the regular consecration of the first primate of the English Reformation. 44 One cavil yet remains : the record of the con- secration of Barlow, one of the consecrators o Parker, cannot be found : and hence our adversaries Would infer that he is no bishop. But no suspicion was ever more groundless. Barlow was translated successively to no fewer than three Sees : he did homage to* Henry VIII. on the restitution of his temporalities, a ceremony which necessarily pre supposes consecration, and constantly sate iu a! parliaments, which he never could have done unless he had beeu consecrated. The loss of a record in tliose unsettled times can excite no surprize : and in effect, the consecration of Gardiner, and several others whom no one denies to have been bishops rests upon no firmer ground than that of Barlow since their records are equally lost. If, however the episcopal character of Barlow were ever so doubtful, it is of no real importance to the question, since the remaining three constitute the canonical number for performing the office of consecration — Sermon In} Rev.

An Aggregate Meeting of the Roman Catholics took place in Dublin on Thursday week, and was numerously attended. A long discussion took place, or rather a series of violent harangues were delivered ' by Mr. Hugh O'Connor, Mr. Shiel, and that " mi- racle of a man" Mr. O'Connell, as his friend Mr. O'Gorma'n calls him. . Mr. O'Connor began by asserting that Catholic Emancipation was their sole object, and concluded bv an attack on the Bank of Ireland. Mr. Shiel levelled his shafts at the Castle aud the Corporation, and at Lord Eldon, and that in terms not the most delicate ; speaking of Lord Eldon, lie said, 44 he thanked. God he was not immortal— and what philosophy cannot do may yet he effected bv gout and rheum!" Mr. O'Conneli followed, and commenced by congratulating his auditors that they were really to he emancipated at last. He indulged iu coarse invectives against the English Press and Protestants generally ; and in the course of his intemperate harangue threatened the British G verunient. The Roman Catholics, he said, 44 offered Parliament their seven millions — they may be quired— the nations of Europe were augmenting their forces." The insinuation is obvious enough; and God forbid that England should ever need the assistance of any of her subjects over whom Mr. O'Cotinell possesses influence ; for let this Gentleman assert he will that the Roman Catholic Association has no other object than to procure emancipation, no man of common sense who has watched its proceeding!* Will believe it. More tlum one of its members have openly avowed, that they will not be satisfied with anything legs than a repeal Of the Union, while the conduct of others clearly proves that the extinction of Protestantism in Ireland is looked forward to as at no great distance. The Orator who opened the proceedings ( a Mr Fitzsiiivmo'us) 1, in alluding to the Imperial Legisla- ture, took good care not to employ a term which might seem to recognize its authority iti Ireland ii derogation of the Assembly in Capel- stieet. H always called it the 44 ENGLISH Parliament," a mode of speaking quite intelligible to those who had been taught by their Priests that % 4 The Association" con- stitutes 44 The Domestic Government of Ireland." While t) ie Association is proceeding in a manner which must alarm even the friends to Catholic eman- cipation1, the Priests are stimulating ' lie people t< acts of intolerance and bigotry. It is asserted in an Irish Paper, that at a confirmation in the county of Waterford, Si a Roman Catholic Bishop addressed the congregation ( consisting of many thousands), nd iff the most earnest terms exhorted every one ho heard him to abstain for the future as much as possible front holding any communication with their Heretic neighbours." He also observed, 44 that for many years they bird been obliged to be under a mpfimenr to the Protestant clergy for permission to bury in their ehiTreh- yards ; but that, thank God, measures were now rn progress which would secure hem burying- places of their own, without their being compelled to mingle the ashes of their relatives with those of Heretics 7 /" the numerous perversions of the original text, and the horrible notes which have been attached to the Rhemish and Douay Bibles, have drawn down on them the universal censure of all tlt- e Reformed People of Europe; but the People of Great Britain are particularly interested in the following note, for the first time published in the city of Dublin. In no other edition does it appear than that of Coyne, printed so lately as the year 1816, nnd approved of by the Most Reverend Dr. Troy, R. C. A. D. as the title page expresses it, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin. In the first epistle of Peter, 2d chap, and 13th verse, the original text is thus translated, 44 Be ye subject therefore to every Human Creature for God's sake : whether it he to the King as excell- ing." In O'Reilly's edition also, published in Dub- lin in 1794, the translation is precisely ihe same; but that edition, though it has notes on several other passages, has not any note on this, which proves that this note must have been recently composed, and that there must also have been some peculiar motive for its publication. The note runs thus, So is the Greek? but the Protestants, in favour of temporal laws made against the Catholic religion, translate it very falsely thus, ' To all manner of Ordinances of Man themselves boldly rejecting ecclesiastical decrees as Men' ordinances;— and again, ' To the. King as excelling.' Some simple heretics, and others also not Unlearned, at the beginning, for want of better places, would have proved by this, that the King was head of the Church, and above all spiritual rulers; and to make it sound better that way, they falsely translated it, 4 To the King, as t. o the Chief Head; in the Bible of the year 1652. But it is evident that He calletli the King the preceSlent, or more excellent in respect of his viceregents, whom He calleth Dukes or Governors that are at his appointment: and not in respect of. Popes, Bishops, or Priests, as they have the rule of men's souls: who could not in that charge be under such Kings or Emperors, as the Apostle speaketh of; no more' than the Kings or Emperors then could be the heads of the Church, being heathen men and no'members of it, much less the chief members. See a notable place in St. Ignatius Epist. ad Smyrnenses where He exhorteth them first to honour God, next the Bishop, and then the King. This is an invincible demonstration that this text maketh not for any spiritual claim of Earthly Kings, because it giveth no more to any Prince than may or ought to be done and granted to a heathen magistrate. Neither is there any thing in all the New Testament that prove th the Prince to be head or chief Governor of the church in spiritual or ecclesiastical causes, more than it proveth any heathen emperor of Rome to have been; for they were bound in temporal things to obey the heathens, being lawful kings, to be subject to them for consciences, to keep their temporal laws, to pay them tribute, to pray for them, and to do alt other natural duties; and more DO Scriptures bind us to do to Christian kings!.!' all clear before us, we saw them blending gradually ith the clouds, which had already taken their high ations close to the mountain's summit. - As the lit increased, ' a gradual tone and appearance of security seemed to accompany it on the earth. The ' owlingof the wolves, and the barking of the shep. erds' dogs, which had kept concert during the ght^ now- gave place to the hum of insects. The eagles, sure of their way, came two or three of them mating down through the aii\ j aud seemed to pierce ith keen gaze the deepest recesses of the vale. The ild flowers opened their bosoms and freely shared their fragrant scents with the breeze, that kissed them as it passed upwards. All nature began to robe itsself lor the Coming ceremony. The grey clouds assutfted a variety of tinges of inany brilliant colours. The peaks arising here and there above them shone in roseate hues: and the snow heaps that lay on their granite beds were covered with'a deep blush of blended crimson and purple. I bur- ied breathlessly forward, for I feared I should b ate. I found that nature was foo quick for, me. I We have already adverted to the similarity views and principles between the Catholic Assoc ntion of 1824, and the Catholic Committee of 1793 That we were not wrong in the parallel we . drew, shown by what took place when a Mr. Devereux, of the county of Wexford, was proposed, on Wednes- day, the 1st iust. as a member• of the Association Mr. Conway, who proposed him, said, 44 he was hap- py to find one of the surviving delegates of 1793 coming among them." But Mr. O'Connell settled the poTrit at once. The motion, he said, was perfectly superfluous— 44 a delegate of 1793 wan a member a. a . matter of course/" So much for identity o objects, and for the consequences that may he antici paled. We know what followed the incendiary labours of 1793— we may easily predict what wi follow the same labours in 1824. The Cathol' Committee of that day professed, as the Cathol Association now does, that they were only seeking just and legal rights by constitutional means. Is th This long note first published by Coyne, and approved by the Most Reverend Dr. Troy, deserves serious consideration in a political rather than a religious point of view. However, let us first consi der if in the latter. Anthony Purver, a Quaker, an erudite Hebiajist and excellent - Greek scholar, has translated the above verse thus— 44 Be subject there- fore to every human magistrate for the Lord's sake, whet he r to the King as being' above,"— the Gree word used by • the Apostle literally means 44 ove ruling," and every Protestant can read this passa; in his Bible published by authority, and see the evi. dent meaning of the Apostle by the general context In a political point of view is it not evident to every Protestant, that the forge where such notes can be fabricated, should not be suppoited by the funds of a Protestant State? The Duke of Newcastle, by his Protest published against the hill relative to in diligence to an individual Roman Catholic Peer, th. Hereditary Earl Marshal of England, plainly shew the line to be pursued by a Protestant Legislator relative to all Popish Claims.— The Papists pretend that they are a persecuted sect, and are not allowed liberty of conscience. This is a false statement, and diffusely published ih foreign states, to excite odium against t'fte British Government. In Spain, both Old and New, no other religion than the Romish can be tolerated by their laws, in Great Britain Popi s an " their Priests have denounced all intermarriages be tweeri their community and Protestants under tli severest penalties of the Church ; and have exten sively circulated ds d prophecy, that in the yea, 1825, no Protestant shall be left, alive. In brief,— the notes of the Rhemish and Douay Bibles, th rebellions of 1798,* 1803, 1822 « - recent publications present transactions in every part of Ireland, end future threats, leave no doubt that Popes aud thei Synods have long aimed at the recovery of power i the United Empire. The sufferings of Priest MoT rissy, just now published, demonstrate to a eeitain'ty that a modified PapaI Inquisition actually exists i Great Britain, to which all Priests of the Romis church are parties, aud all Roman Catholics sub servient. No Popish assertion to the contrary should be credited, nor should the Protestant people of these realms suffer themselves to be duped by those advo cates of a Popish church, whose hierarchy hav> taken a decided though remote aim, and have formed a fixed determination to acquire if possible their long lost supremacy, and will make ever effort which invention and ill will can employ subvert the Protestant Constitution. Another Bible discussion bri3 taken place at Easky, in the county of Sligo. Mr. Murray, missionary to the Irish Evangelical Society, argued " u support of the right of mankind to read the Scriptures, and exeicise their judgments in in tCrpreting its contents, and quoted about 40' pas- ages of Scripture. The Rev. Mr Hughes, parish priest of Crossmolina, argued against the reading of the Scriptures, and the use of private judgment in their interpretation, that it rendered the con- ersion of persons to the Roman Catholic Church almost impossible. Two opposite speakers follow- ed, and concluded Tuesday's proceedings.— On Wednesday the Rev. William Urwiek, in a speech > f three hours and thirty- live minutes, spoke in favour of the universal right of mankind to read he Bible, it being the sole test of truth in religion, he right of private judgment, and the fallacy of he claims of the Church of Rome to be the depository and interpreter of the Word of God. The Rev. Mr. Lyon, parish priest of Bailina, ex patiated for three hours upon tradition, and the virtues, sufferings, and zeal of the Catholic priest- hood. The meeting then adjourned. THE FlfHENBES. I: aw the horizon covered with the yellow streaks, on whose steps the snri treads so quickly. His daZzlin beams were fast piercing up the skies, and the west of Heaven was glowing in all the splendid mixture of bright colours which it catches from reflection I hastened on still faster. I had taken the lead of my companions. I did not look at all before me, until enveloped by thick mists, and losing all sight of the beautiful panorama around me, I found that we were actually in the clouds. 44 A pang of disappointment was my first sensation, hilt I did not pause in my career. I heard Claude and Moinard calling to me that, I was mounting too high from the path, but 1 replied that I would soon rejoin them. They paused, and 1 rushed on. hoped still to find an opening through the vapour to catch a glimpse of the world below me, blazing in af" he splendour of the fully risen luminary. The mist told me that my hopes were vain, and that the mo- ment was past, for they were all at once illuminated with a sudden rush of brightness, that gave to every particle of which it were composed a silver brilliancy, and seemed to throw a glow of warmth into the atmosphere. A few minutes more led to the confines of this bright veil. The pointed peaks of th mountain began to appear— then the blue heaven above— and in another step or two, I had passed the outward edge of the mist. I looked round and felt a thrill of awe shoot through me, as I gazed on the solemnity of- the scene. As far as the eve could penetrate the apparently boundless extent, a wid> ocean of thick clouds alone was visible below me, and the spotlesss vault of heaven above. Not the slightest sign of earth, or of man, was within view. The heavy mass of congregated vapours, in their millions of involuted folds, brought at once to my ' nd the notion of the universal deluge, when the world of waters swept majestically along, crushing and burving all trace of animal and vegetable exist- ence. I imagined the last of living victims flying from the coming flood, and hurrying his tottering steps to the summit of the highest hill. I retreated ' nvolnntarily upwards— and could have fled in the midst of my abstraction, had not the out- bursting of the glorious sun given a new and splendid character to this wonderful scene. He rushed up rapidly from the mass of clouds into the clear blue heaven. He threw no beams round him. Nothing existed as a ground- work to throw them out into shadow, or mark their palpable touch. He was a ball of single and intolerable splendour. My gaze was instantane- ous, and had nearly blinded me. 1 covered my eyes for a moment, and when I looked again the whole ocean of clouds was as a multitude of wreaths of snow, enwrapped one over the other in folds of dazzling whiteness. The scene was too splendid and too sublime for my continued gaze. I turned in search of relief, and caught, to the southward, the wide extended chain of mountains spreading | o the right and left, and lost in the imperfect light t^ f their far distant limits. 4< f Barren and desolate as they looked, there was still something in them which spoke of a nature that was not strange to me. They were palpable realities that recalled me to the world, and brought home to me associations of humanity. I looked oil them in all their venerable magnitude of form and extent, enthroned on earth, and covered with the glow of heaven. In all tiny Reverence for their mightiness, I was never so impressed with it as now." nlJU PRESS.— In our last Journal, we staled that we had unquestionable authority for saying that the accounts in the Papers relative to Eauntleroy's behaviour in prison, and at the place of execution, were wholly fabrications.-— We are enabled now to confirm this on the authority of the Rev. Mr. Springett, a Minister of the Established Church, who in a Letter published in an Evening Paper, in reference to various paragraphs relative to Fauntleroy's Conduct in his last hours, which appeared in the Momivt) Chronicle of the 29th and 30th ( which last was the day of execution), declares— 44 EVF.

The Leeds Mercury Sdys— i6 The columns of our paper serve every week to convey an idea of the very extensive transference of property which is taking place in this county, particularly in the West Riding.— Such is the spirit of enterprise in Leeds, that as much land has been recently sold for building purposes in the immediate neighbour- hood as would form another town nearly as large as that we at present inhabit. Last Saturday, 50,000 yards of building ground, the property of John'Wilson, Esq. on the south bank of the Aire, near the Buckram House, was bought by Mr Joseph Green. On the morning of the same day, 26,000 yards of land, situate between Camproad and Sheepsear lane, were sold at a price which it is said realized to the owner, on a purchase made only a few years ago, £ 6000. And in the course of the present week, 20,000 yards of building ground, on the Elmwood estate, and 30,000 yards of building ground, in Park- lane, have been offered for sale by auction, but neither of them sold. A small allotment was also offered in Albion street, for which £ 2 a yard was bid, but it was bought in by direction of the owner, for 50 percent, above that sura. Within these few days, an estate, con- sisting of not more than 600 yards, at ihe west side of Albion- street, has been sold, with the buildings upon it, for £ 6000, being about £ 10 the square yard." Dr. Elihu Tudor, who was a Lieutenant in the army of General Wolfe, in the celebrated battle on the Heights of Abraham, in 1750, is now living at East Windsor* Connecticut, at the advanced age of 94 years. He is supposed to be the only sur- viving Officer of General Wolfe's army in Europe or America. He continues to receive a pension from the British Government.

Oppose wrong Principles steadily, and wrong Practices will be put down speedily. Wherever the sacred Scriptures have been re- ceived, a set of men have penetrated wicked enough to try and pervert their meaning, and avaricious enough to attempt establishing their own peculiar aggrandizement by Holy Writ, though they totally forsake its precepts in the pursuit. Every Govern- ment must of necessity have a Head or supreme Governor; but Ilie Bishop of Rome is not to be ihe supreme head over every State on the globe. Men calling themselves companions of Jesus indeed would inculcate such a principle, and Popes have dared to designate themselves not only the Head of the Church Universal, but also have arrogated to themselves the appellation of Christ's Vicars on . rth. But how different is the practice of Popes from the doctrines of Christ. He preached peace and food will to all men, while they fulminate destruction to all men who dare oppose their su- premacy, and have decreed extermination against all Christians who differ from them in doctrinal points and modes of worship. Popes created the order of Jesuits for the peculiar support of the Papacy, and Jesuits in return have endeavoured to increase the Pope's authority, thereby to forward their own ambitious views. Will men, who have dared to pervert the Holy Scriptures, hesitate to subvert civil Governments? Will men who have belied their GOD, and slandered the Apostles, feel any scruple of conscience at planning treason against States, and massacres against millions? Ought not all enlightened mankind to combine to drive such monsters from human society? and ought not an united effort to be made by all States lo reform the principles of such an evil disposed hierarchy ? To falsify facts is with the Romish hierarchy but a trifle, and under the influence of that hierarchy, that portion of the British population which blindly sub- mits to the Pope's jurisdiction have been persuaded that their rights are infringed, and themselves per- secuted for conscience sake !! These false assertions are published on the Continent, where the credulous ami uninformed, who obey the same religious juris- diction, commiserate their supposed grievances, and are ready to support their cause by any effort which may be deemed applicable. In the British Empire it appears the Roman Catholics to a man have united to demand from Government a participation of power in the State, and, presuming on their numbers, threaten to subvert the Government if their demand be denied. Overt acts have proved this, and the following quotation from a Book deemed by the Romanises incontrovertible, puts their final intention out of all doubt. Before transcribing this particular note from the Douay Bible, it must be observed that 44 1 had stood, early that morning, by the edge a chasm in the direction they spoke of, the most appalling I ever beheld ; one formed, as I . thought in a moment of Heaven's deadliest wrath against th world ; looking as if the ireful stroke of a thousan concent rated thunderbolts had split the whole body of the mountain from its summit to its roofs, and torn open, and scattered down to the vale the huge rock that lay buried deepest in its heart. In my breath less curiosity to look over the chasm, I had lain down on my face, and crept cautiously along to its vast and broken edge. With one hand twined iu the roots of a thick tuft of rhododendron, and the other grasping a jagged piece of granite that stood out over the yawning depth, t cautiously gazed down into it. Shivered fragments of rock of immense magnitude, wrenched as it were from their hold in the earth, first caught my view. Some appeared in the very act of falling down, as they hung- balanced in the ocean of the air by a slight isthmus of clay and stone, which seemed waiting the first storm- gust to sever it across. Other enormous masses toppled over the abyss, from projecting ledges of earth, not a hundredth part the size of the crags they support- ed. A few wild flowers and shrubs, dangling- from the irregular sides, gave a horrid air of animation to the scene, and looked like living victims suspended over the chasm. One solitary pine tree with broken branches and withered stem, bung out over the side. Its roots were bare, all but three or four fibres, by which it seemed to cling tremblingly to the cliff where it had been self- planted, as if conscious that the next shower of rain would wash away its scanty bed of earth and precipitate it down below; The whole perpendicular face of tiiis gulf was seared and shivered by the lightnings of countless ages, and innumerable storms. Not a living thing was in sight, but two or three eagles that floated through the sky far beneath me. The clouds rolled away thousands of feet below, and hid the tops of many a le-. ser hill— for I was then on one of the highest points of the Pyrenees. Every thing further down was lost to me, in the solid mist that seemed settled in the shelter of the ravine. I looked up and saw nothing but the thick haze of dawn, for the sun had not appeared Over the farthest edge of the horizon. I had ascended the Pic du Midi to behold its glorious rising. I viewed, instead of it, this scene of har rowing desolation; I shrank back from the precipice, recovered my feet, and hurried off down the smooth eastern side of the mountain, in the direction of that valley, w here night brought me into contact with the adventure which led to this digression." SUN RISE IN THE PYRENEES. 44 It was then the month of August, no matter in what year; the night had been misty, which 1 knew was rather a reason to loo ft for a bright morning. The smooth even path as we went along, and the deep conversation into which we entered, beguiled our route; so that 1 was somewhat surprised on casting my looks toward the east, as we issued from a ravine about half way up the mountain's side, to find that the dawn was beginning to break. I stopped for a moment to take breath, for our ascent had been very rapid. I gazed around me, and was pleased to see the mists rising gradually upwards, and leaving the bottom of the valleys clear. I dis- tinguished the little river which had narrowed as we mounted towards its source, and the still smaller streamlets that trickled down towards it, like skeins of silvery tissue hanging on the heathy mantle which covered the mountain. A fresh breeze came from the eastward heralding the rising sun, and I marked appearing above the horizon those prelusive beams which he sends out, as avant- couriers, to. clear his path along the ways of heaven. Remembering- my disappointment of the preceding morning, on the top of the Pic du Midi, I was resolved to be in time at the summit of Arbizan, to see the first burst of the day- god as he shewed his splendent face to my portion of the world. I gave therefore the hint to my guides, and we pushed quickly on. My com- panions, though more accustomed to the scene than I was, seemed to participate in my anxiety. We all abandoned for a while the subject which had lately given such an interest to our conversation ; and paid, in silence, our homage to the sovereign whose levee we were hurrying to attend. The vapours kept pace with us at first; they mounted beside us for a while, but soon outstripped our progress; and as they left A SKETCH From the Staffordshire Iron Works. Imagine yourself, on a dark night, floundering over the rugged region of the collieries, nearly suffocated with smoke, and winding your way with eel- like dexterity between heap's of coals, ashes, and yawning pit, mouths, till you arrive at a deep hollow, in which are two lofty kilns or furnaces, vomiting fire and smoke, and surrounded at short distances with hills of burning coal. Descending cautiously, for danger lurks in every step, to the foot of the building, you are introduced to a huge shed, resembling a cavern, the entrance to which is faintly illuminated by a quantity of burning Coals in an open grate, raised high in air, while all within is darkness visible. The ground is covered with a deep bed of sand, in which is formed a channel for the melted ore to run into, extending from the base of the furnace to the mouth of the cavern, and three or four feet in width. At the appointed time, whilst all around is dark and dis- mal, a communication with the bottom of the furnace is opened, and the liquid fire flows slowly and majestically into the channel prepared for it. No sketch of fancy— no fervour of imagination— can depict the brilliancy of the scene that now presents itself. The glowing- metal, remaining in its fluid state for nearly an hour, appears an undulating lake of fire of inconceivable brightness, and kin- dling as it rolls along considerable portions of the sand, which, rising from either side of the channel, hover over it with playful and rapid motion, in sparks of vivid blue. The iron thus produced is termed PIG- IRON, which, after passing through another and similar process in the fining furnace, becomes PLATE IRON, in which state it is conveyed to the mill. Here it is again heated to nearly a fluid state, and welded in large masses beneath a hammer of three tons weight : it is then, while red hot, formed into bars or hoops of various dimensions, by being drawn between a succession of revolving cylinders, aud returned with surprising dexterity by the workmen, from the larger to the smaller rollers. This part of the process is so rapid, that it has the appearance of magic, the whole of the immense machinery being impelled by steam. Thick bars of iron are thus rolled, in a few seconds, into thin plates of six times their original length ; which, twisting themselves into various foldings as they issue from the rollers, appear at a distance like red- hot snakes The whole of this scene is exceedingly imposing — the multitude and variety of the apparently self- moving machinery— the moving principle unseen — the masses of red- hot metal passing to and fro — the showers of blazing particles of iron thrown off by the hammer— the snake. like appearance of the writhing bars, and the shadowy f irms of the half seen workmen, who 44 seem not like th' inhabitants o' the earth," contribute to form a spectacle of great sublimity and magnificence, and awaken in the mind ideas of something supernatural. Etna and Vesuvius, with their roaring fires and flowing lava, are present to the imagination, and the story of Vulcan and his Cyclops, forging thunder and lightning, appears no longer a fiction. JW^ eeilanmss EnteUijjsncc* NEW LINE OF ROAD BETWEEN OXFORD AND LONDON.— A Meeting of the Sub- Commit teC, appointed to take Mr. Telford's opinion upon 17 miles of a proposed new line of road between Oxford and London, to avoid Stoken- church and Dashwood Hills, was held at the Star Inn, in this city, on Saturday, the 27th ult. the Earl of Abing don iu the chair.

Reynard disdained the cover, and, crossing the turnpike road, bore away for Wharton, did not enter the gorse, but held his course gallantly over the fields for Handley, closely pursued by the whole pack, and the few sportsmen who happened to be out. The fox passed Handley gorse without going into it, and made straight for Bolesworth, from thence to Barnhill, and through the cover there, with a burning scent to Peckforton ; here the hunting became rather cool, and as the hounds were about to run through some choice covers belonging to the Cheshire Fox Hounds, they were called off, after a sharp burst of about eight miles without * check. We may here remark, that the well- known HEREDITARY knowledge of Captain Puleston in the breeding and management of hounds has raised the Chester Harriers to a pitch of excel- lence equalled by few, and probably not surpassed by any in the kingdom ; their steadiness, command, or what sportsmen call handiness in the field, is very conspicuous. As an instance of this we may remark, that some days since they were running a hare in full chace near the river side, when puss took the river, followed by the whole pack, into the grounds of Earl Grosvenor, near his park; Capt. Puleston, fearful of intruding upon the pre-* serves of this noble and liberal patron of the Chester Harriers, instantly hallooed the hounds back, when every dog promptly obeyed his call, and returned over the Dee. Capt. Puleston has too good sporting blood in his veins to allow his Harriers to hunt BAG FOXES; we know that several have been brought to him, but his decided answer was, 44 the Chester Harriers shall never hunt a bag fox while they are under my command." This is as it should be, but if Harriers come occasionally on the drag of a fox, it is impossible to prevent their following it, since it cannot be known, unless he should happen to be viewed away.— Chester Chronicle.

FASHION.— The following is the conclusion of a long article, describing Ihe London fashions foi* the month of December, contained iu a neiv monthly work, called The World of Fashion and Continental Feuillelons.— The ball dresses at pre- sent, are very simple; puckerings of gauze, and rimmingsof blond, with white satin roleaux, form the chief ornaments, whether the dress is of tulle, richly figured gauze, or soft white satin; this last article is most in favour, but it is expected lhat coloured gauzes and crepes will be much patronized by the votaries of Terpsichore. The bodies for bal! dresses are beautiful; some are of white satin, with tulle let in across the bust in Brandenbnrghs, each row of tulle edged round with pearls : corsages of coloured satin are also ornamented in the same manner; while some are- entirely of tulle, and are ornamented across the bust with straps of white satin, with correspondent sleeves, short and full. The favourite colours are the rose of Japan, slate, Vermillion, fire colour, amber, aud pink. A lady, very elegantly dressed, arrived at an Hotel in this town, some time since, and sending for the landlord, asked him, as if in confidence, whether he knew of any reputable tradesman who could supply her with a quantity of genuine French silks. The man thought the application very singular; he, however, went to a tradesman, who sent a person to wait on the lady with an assort- ment of British rfoorlx, with winch he was intro- duced to her with all requisite form and mystery, Ihe silks being concealed in folds round h: s body. After the lady hail chosen as many of the con- traband goods ( as she supposed them) as she thought proper, nothing remained to be done but to mcasui- e and pay for them. The admeasure- ment, as the Fseudo smuggler pretended, was a subject of considerable difficulty, as it was im- possible for him to carry such an instrument as a yard stick about him without being detected; he, however* went and got one, measured the goods, and received the money. The lady early the nex t morning set off on her return lo town, and it is supposed, under all the circumstances, lhat she intended, had the siik proved of French manufac- ture, to have laid an information against the parties, but having since ascertained lhat, though she paid an extravagant price for them, they were not smuggled, she is content lo submit to the mposition — Brighton Gazette.

METHODISTS— We understand that all the local Preachers in the Methodist Society, at Bever- ley, resigned their office, a^ preachers and members of that Society, a fe w days agi j 011 the ground of one of their body having, as they conceived, been unjustly treated by the Conference Preachers, for publishing Observations on the System of Me- thodism ; a work in which he advocates the plan of establishing a bouse of representatives, whose con- sent must be obtained before any law of preachers can be binding on Ihe people, iu imitation of our excellent Constitution ; aud he also favours a gradual return of Methodism to its primitive sim- plicity, in becoming auxiliary to the Established Church, as Mr. Wesley always intended it sh - uki be. It is understood that they intend to invite over some of the travelling preachers in the Church Methodist Society of Ireland to assist them. There are already about 13,000 Church Methodists in Ireland, whose plan of proceedings has obtained, we are informed, the sanction of the Bishops of Waterford and Cork. We understand, from good authority, that several persons of consequence in this country are friendly to their proceedings.— York Herald. ANOTHER SPRING GUN ACCIDENT IN SUF- FOLK!!!— On Wednesday last, as William Bray, the gamekeeper of Sir George Wombwell, of Stowlangtoft, in Suffolk, was going bis round, a hawk passed over him, which he shot at and killed ; and, going- to pick it up, he came in contact with the wire of a spring gun, when part of its contents' was lodged in his leg and ancle. A surgeon, was sent for, who extracted some of the shot, and hopes are entertained that he will be able in a few weeks to resume his situation, and his gun again.— Essex Herald. A gentleman of Henley- on- Thames offered a farmer, when at that market, a dinner and a buttle of wine, if he would bring him a grain of wheat ou the following market day, and double the quantity each week until that day twelvemonth.
