SEniors CoNEL%nimtioss.—This morning, at early hour, a fire happened in one of the spacious private residenees, numbered 3, Montpelier-row, Blackheath, the property of a lady named Webb, but sublet to se reral lodgers. The fire was first perceived by a policeman of the It division, who lust no time in arousing the several occu pant•, who fortunately succeeded in effecting a retreat. The engines of the parish quickly attended, as well as an other belonging to the dockyard at Deptford. These powerful machines were instantly set to work ; but in spite of the exertions of tho police, &c., the work of destruction cantiuucil, and in lees than a quark r of an hour after the commencement of the conflagration the entire buililiier presented one immense sheet of flame, the lent etion of which could be seen from every part of London. This caused the engines of the brigade at Southwark-bridge road station, as well sus that of the West of England Com pany, to he takun out in search of the scene of danger. After travelling some distance, a mounted express was met, who gave to the firemen information of the exact spot the lames were then ragiag. The engines were then driven with greater spent onwards, and, on reaching Blackheath hill, an occurrence took place which was nearly attended with fatal consequences to Mr. Deputy Barrow, of the West of England office. The men, it appears, were in the act of getting oft the engine to ease the horses up the hill, when Barrow was thrown down by his foot catching the wheel, and before he could be extricated the fore-wheel passed over his left foot and the hind-wheel over his thigh. The horses were immediately stopped, and the ladders taken of the engine, in order to carry him to the police-station, but for tunately he was found to be only seriously bruised, no bones having been fractured. Upon reaching the tire, the firemen set to work in an indefatigable manner, but they were unable to suhdue the flames until the premises in which the diaistcr commenced were gutted, and serious da mage done, by fire, water, and removal, to Nee. 2 and 4 in the same row, belonging to Mr. Gilbert. Mrs. Webb was insured in the Sun Fire-office, but Mr. Gdlh rt was uninsured. The cause of the fire was un known.—At a late hour last night a fire of a very serious character happened in the premises of Mr. Wheeler, a jamuuser, No. 8, Newton-street, llolboin. It originated in the manufactory, and speedily extended to three of the drying stoves, which were burned out, the roof destroyed, sod several hundred pounds worth of stock in trade con sumed. The engines of the parish, Brigade, and West of England attended, and the firemen eventually got the flames extinguished. The loss will fall on the Sun Fire office. SUICIDE OF A STOCKBROKER.— A painful ton was created yesterday forenoon in the Stock Exchange by the shocking death of Mr. Ingle Budge, a stockbroker, who committed suicide at the counting-house of Mr. Routh, also a member of the Stock Exchange, in Throg mortowstreet. Late last evening Mr. W. Payne, the City coroner, held an inquest on the body of the unfortunate gentleman, at Mr. Routh's office, before a jury of nineteen inhabitants of the ward, when the following facts were ' adduced. The deceased was • young member of the Ex change, having only been connected with it some four or five years. He was very highly respected in the City for hi. upright and business-like conduct. Mr. Routh, in con sequente of beir.g intimately acquainted with the deceased, had allowed him permission to transact his business at his counting-house, No. 32, Throgmorton.street, he not having en office of his own. On Mr. Routh reaching his counting-house yesterday morning at eleven o'clock, he beard from his clerk that the deceased was in the private room, where he had been about • quarter of an hour. Mr. Routh at once proceeded to the apartment, and found the deceased lying on the floor of the water-closet attached to the rount. lie immediately called in assistance , and sent for Mr. Ch a nce, a surgeon in the neighbourhood, who pro /yawed the unfortunate man to be dead. A wine glass was found on the table containing the remains of prussic acid. A brief examination of the body b the medical gentleman sufficed to show that the d had perished from the , ttf‘ets of that poison. On his person was found • loaded pistol and a knife. Some letters also were discovered. They were examined by the coroner, and one ran nearly to the following effi et ; dated Sept. 29th, 1351, addressed to Mr. Forst e r :—" D ea r Sir, — W hen you have received this I shall have erase d to live. I have never done lay good to myself or any one else about me. I knew this must come a long while. I hope some will take pity on my poor wife and children ; du what you can for those helpless creatures • I dare not think of their unhappy condition. I have had the means et death in my possession now more then two weeks." The letter then cute. red into some business transactions, showing the state of his affairs, and which it mad lie untie es,siry to give. It concluded by imploring his friends not to term his littlo ones, and wishing them good bye. *a. signed " Ingle nudge." Mr. Sewell, surgeon, dr Vinehurelastreet, and other gentlemen who were se guaiiited with the deceased, spoke of his disordered state of mind, from which it would seem that he laboured under the mpremion that he would never be able to do any good for himself and family, and that he would always be un fortunate. Yesterday being settling day at the Stock Exchange, he found himself not in • position to meet certain demands, his account at his banker's being consi derably short of the sum required, bet which could base been readily averted by application to the committee, who would doubtless have extricated him from his difficulties. He was seen on 'Change about 10 o'clock, sad it is per that the dread of meeting his difikultios induced hem to commit the melancholy act. After some Illwarke, the jury returned a verdict of "Temporary 'weeny." He iti• kit a widow and two children.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION The near approach of the closing day only increases the anxiety of the public to visit the Crystal Palace. Yesterday's was another enormous gathering, and would have been still greater but for the threatening aspect of the weather in the early part of the day. The great mass of the visitors aro }till country people, and the manner in which they crowd round the moat familiar objects proves them to be in the majority of cases visitors for the day only. The preparations for the final close go on with un abated vigour, and we believe that the ceremonial will take place in the quietest possible manner, without any musical " effects" vocal or instrumental, notwithstanding the strong hints daily thrown out by a morning contemporary. The public will and must take a final leave of the building on Saturday, the 11th of October, when, it will comfort our contemporary to know, any spontaneous burst of harmony will not be pro hibited by the executive committee, but it must be provided by the public, and not by the royal commissioners. On the Wednesday following Prince Albert will attend, when the report of the jurors will be read by Lord Causing. To this his royal highness will respond in a short speech, and in 10 minutes after the workmen will be admitted, and commence the removal of the goods, and the preparations for the dismantling of the Palace. On this occasion the only persons admitted will be the exhibitors, and perhaps one or two friends each, by ticket, the public, ticket holders and all, being entirely excluded. This announcement we make on the highest authority. The suggestion for removing the Crystal Palace bodily to Battersea fields has created a good deal of amusement among the habitu.4, especially those who are at all acquainted with the winter aspect of thel locality in question. The Palace is already by no means impervious et top, and if it were placed in a situation where two or three feet of extra water might safely be calculated on at every spring tide during winter, its public utility in a sanitary point of view would become more than problematical. If it is to be taken down to be rebuilt elsewhere, and to be made a retreat fur poor invalids, in whch they may take air and exercise, undeterred by the chilling blasts and damps of winter, some site must be chesen above, not below hieh • water mark. The police returns yesterday were 69,316. Receipts at the doors, 3,3031. 4s.

The line of communication between the two coasts was fully esta blished on Sunday evening, about live o'clock, and the eke tric wire after three days had been consumed instretching it across the straits, was brought up on the French coast at immgato about three miles below Calais, whence it was car ried underground to the telegraph station of the Great North ern or France Railway at Calais. Electric currents were passed from coast to coast, and messages sent the same evening, bat on Mon lay a series of experiments were tried with the most satisfactory result, and as the same results were achieved to-day the great enterprise may now be regarded as actually finished and complete. Early on Monday morning congratulatory messages to the President of the French Republic were sent direct from England to Paris, also to the King of Prussia and the Emperor of Austria, at Berlin and Vienna, and messages were also transmitted to London from the principal cities in Europe, who were included in the continental system of telegraph.c communication. During the whole of Monday, the town of Calais presented the appearance of a fete, and numbers of the inhabitants crowded on the ramparts, watching with interest and wonder the various experiments which were tried with the submarine wires. In the evening an enter tainment was given at the Hotel de Vile, to those English gentlemen, promoters of the undertaking, who were on the spot, and had assisted in its completion. These were Sir James Carmichael, Mr. Crampton, C.E., Mr. Wollaston, and Mr. Tatham, of the Gutta Percha Com pany, M. Mayer, the Mayor of Calais, presided; and, is addition to the English guests, there were present MX. Legros Devot, Representatir du Pcuple ; De Hamel, COMt eillor of State and Member of the Academy of St. Peter , - burg ; Dupont, Vice-Consul of Russia ; and M. Bonham, British Consul; together with the principal inhabitants of Calais, and the officers of the garrison. During the whole of the proceedings, the utmost harmony prevailed; and after dinner, the English gentlemen were conducted over the museum of the town, where it was determined that a portion of the electric coil should in future be placed, in juxtaposition with the balloon of the celebrated aeronaut, Blanchard, who, in 1791, made his first supra-marine voyage from Dover to Calais. INAUGURAL DINNER OF THE SHED ELECT. Yesterday, according to the hospitable custom of the City of London, the sheriffs elect of London and Middle sex for the ensuing year, Messrs. Cottcrell and Swift, enter tained a numerous circle of their friends at Cordwaincrs' Hall, of which company Mr. Cotterell, the senior sheriff, is a past master and diszinguished member. Upwards of 270 noblemen and gentlemen sat down to a banquet replete with every delicacy of the season ; and an abundance of the choicest wines contributed to the conviviality of the evening. A musical party, under the direction of Mr. Genge, sang several popular songs and glees, and Mr. Harker officiated as toastmaster. According to custom, at sheriffs' dinners, there was a double presidency, the sheriffs in turn announcing the toasts of the evening to the guests, among whom we noticed the Lord Chief Baron, Lord Erskine, Mr. Justice Telenet', Mr. Duncan Dunbar, the extensive shipowner; Mr. Roney, late secretary to the Eastern Counties Railway ; and an un usually strong muster of the notabilities of the corporation. The Lord Mayor was not present. On the removal of the cloth, Mr. Sheriff-elect COTTERELL gavo " the Queen," which was drunk with the usual loyal enthusiasm. Mr. Sheriff-eleet SWIFT gave ' Prince Albert, and the rest of the Royal Family," taking occasion to eulogise, in appropriate terms, the share which his royal highness had had in promoting the Great Exhibition of the Indutry of all Nations, a service which had endeared him not only to the people of this country, but to all the civilised peoples of the world. The toast was received with the loudest demonstrations of applause. The next toast was " the Army and Navy," given by Mr. Sheriff Cotterell, to which Major Hamilton responded ,• which was followed by the health of the present Lord Mayor, accompanied by an expression of regret at his una voidable absence. Mr. Sheriff-elect SWIFT then gave, " the Lord Mayor elect." Mr. Alderman HUNTER returned thank', expressing his firm intention to discharge the ardufftt's duties of his mayoralty with firmness and impartiality. Mr. Sheriff COTTEIIELL gave " The Judges." The Lord CHIEF BARON in returning thanks ex pressed the grant piano, he felt in finding himself seated at the festive bead of the citizens of London. The citizens of London was historically connected with the liberties of the country,tloy bad protectedithose liberties on every occa sion witharbritnefloserego, and the predecessors of the great ORM' Willen cassias they were that day celebrating lad by *air Inman sewed those privileges which the chinas at present enjoyed. (Loud cheers.) He (tho Lord Chief Baron) felt the graben pleasure in doing " suit and service" to the City elandiaf, on the easy terms of be ing present at so magniticestan entertainment. (Cheers.) Ile begged in conclus i on, to propose the health of the Sheriffs Elect,Messrs. Cotterell aal Swift. (Loud chem.) The objects of the toast severally returned thanks, pro mising their best exertions towards the proper fulfilment of the duties of their office. The health of the Under-Sheriffs having been given by Mr. Cottcrell, and most warmly received by the company, Mr. MILLA.RD, in returning thanks, referred to the fact of se worthy sheriff elect being a past master of the Cordwainers' company. His (Mr. )lillarirs) father had been clerk to that company when the father of the worthy sheriff elect was master; and he (Mr. Millard) himself had been born in Cordwainers" Hall, and hoped to spend his life in the service of the company. The many kin dn esses he had THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1, 1851. received at their hands only increased his anxiety to remain in their service. (Loud cheers.) The other toasts on the list having been disposed of, the 1 company separated. GREAT LOSS OF LIFE AND SHIPPING LN THE HEAVY GALES• [ The heavy north-easterly gale which set in on Thursday evening, and continued without the least inter mission for nearly 48 hours, led to the most calamitous loss of life and property. In addition to the sad events detailed in this journal on Monday, Lloyds' agents report upwards of 100 vessels stranded, and the number which foundered with all hands was painfully numerous. On no part of the coast was the mischief greater than in the vicinity of the entrance of the Humber. With the slight south-westerly breeze in the early part of Thursday, the coasters were wending their way ckea under the land. Suddealy the wind veered to the north cut, and speedily increased almost to a hurricane, ear tirely preventing many of the ill-fated vessels beating of the coast. Many of them were driven ashore and dashed to pieces, while those who managed to run were carried up as far as the Yarmouth Roads before they could be brought to. The sea on this range of coast was strewed with portions of wreck and cargo, too clearly showing the disastrous results of the storm. Several coasters appear to have been blown over and to have gone down with every soul on board, without the slightest chance presenting itself of saving the unhappy creatures. During the height of the gale on Friday, a brig, which h supposed to be the Venus, of Arundel, was seen to founded I about ten miles north of the Dudgeon, and every one be. longing to her met with a watery grave. About the same period a large-sized craft was seen by the Favourite, of Shields, to go down • short distance frost Cro mer, with all on hoard. A third one was seen to meet with a similar fate in the neighbourhood of Boston Deeps. The master of the Ann and Eliza beth, from Newcastle, since arrived at Gravesend, reports seeing a brig disappear on that part of the coast. ' Her bowsprit, bulwarks, and sails, were carried away. Her name could not be distinguished, but the letter T was seen on her stern. She was believed to have belonged to Blythe. The City of Hamburg steamer, on her last voyage from Laudon to Newcastle, was obliged to put into Bridling ton, in consequence of the formidable character of the weather. She sighted a French brig in great distress °tithe Humber. The state of the sea entirely prevented assist tancu being rendered her, and from the quantity of wreck, and certain description of cargo which had subsequently been seen floating about, there is too much reason to believe that she was unable t %collier the gale. In one instance there was an extraordinary preservation of life. The brig St. Catherine, bound to Hull, on entering the Humber bay, was bloats over. The crew contrived to chug to the side of the hull, stud so continued for nearly 2t hours when with one ex ception they were taken olf, althoug h suffering from exposure ;wit want of loud. A lamentable casualty took place on the Lemuuc Shoal, while the gale was raging with all its might, on Friday night. The brig Seven Brothers., Mr. Alexander Sibbatd, master, of South Shields, was driven on the sand and immediately capsized. The master and four of the crew took to the Jolly boat, but unfortu nately, before the wife of the master, who was on board, and the remainder of the crew (eight) could be taken off, the wreck gut adrift, and every one on board, it is supposed, perished. As it was, those in the boat had a narrow escape. Without a sail or an oar, they were buffetted about inaby hours, when at last they were picked up by the Whin, pilot cutter, and landed near Yarmouth. A sloop, called the Madeira, for Goole, had its muster and boy washed over board. She then foundered, the wife of the master perish ing with her. The above forms but a brief notice of the disasters on this portion of the coast. Numerous vessels were either cast ashore or wrecked on the neighbouring shoals. Higher up the Channel the gale was almost as destruc tive. We have already detailed a melancholy list of casual , ties on the Yorkshire coast, especially in the vicinity of Whitby and Redcar. Amongst the many additional dia gram resulting from the storm, the Triton, of Newcastle, h reported to have been wrecked near the Kettleness, and her crew to have perished. Sonic of the bodies have been washed ashore. Bridlington also furnishes an additional list of losses. Several serious wrecks occurred near Hartle pool, and at Shields no tidings have been gleaned of the sables which have been misting from that port since the commencement of the gales. The Northumbrian line of coast also suffered from the fury of the wind. On Holy Island a schooner, culled the 'Margaret, for Sunderland, from Cromarty, was wrecked; and off Bamborough Castle, the Margaret and Ann tram Newcastle met with a similar fate. Abreast of the lama. eel Head, while the gale was blowing with all its violence, a brig, since ascertained to hove beets the Falcon of Aber deen, foundered with all hands. The body of the master, Mr. Smith, his trunk, and some of the vessels ' papers, have been cost ashore. She was laden with wheat, and is sup posed to have been from Stettin. About the same time, a sloop was observed to go down in deep water off Newton, and it is said that all belonging to her perished. Yarmouth and its adjacent ports on the eastern coast communicate a disastrous accuuutof casualties. Indeed, but for the roads for the former, which appeared to have afforded much refuge to the numerous vessels which were beating back from the northward, the disasters might have been of a far more numetuus and calamitous character. The lugger men as usual displayed much zeal in going out in the tempestuous sea and saving life and property. Several fine vessels, through the assistance rendered them, were after much difficulty brought safely in shore. The vicinity of kilreish was nigh being the scene of a most shocking shipwreck. The Owen Glendower, a fine yacht of nearly 130 tons burden, the property of Mr. Wil liam Moore of Waterford, and which had on board, in addition to its owner, /dm Moare, Mrs. Massey, Miss Llewellyn, and a crew of eleven men, was caught in the gale in making for the Galway bay, and when almost a perfect wreck, as reported, was observed off Arran Island by a Russian barque which had left Galway a day or so previously with emigrants few New York. The master, Mr. Hein, after going as near the wreck as possible, had the boats lowered, and after much difficulty and peril suceeedea in preserving all who we , -e on board. The yacht had been in the most danger ous position for u pw a rds of 30 hours, and the sufrings o fef those on board may probably he imagined. . rugs o made a most magnificent donation to the captain of the barque for the promptitude and humanity he had displayed in rescuing them from the wreck. The later accounts from the respective ports describe the gale to have moderated considerably, but it is more than probable that many other casualties resulting from the storm are get to be made known. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY AND THE 31ETROPOLITAN CHURCH UNION. The following_ letter has been addressed to the secretaries of the Metropolitan Church Union: " Gentlemen, —Having received a circular requesting the akildere of clergymen to a protest against certain exprer sisannasade use of by his grace the archbishop of Cantus boa is a letter to a simagnusg Romanist on the subject of orders, 1 beg that you will permit me to ,= 8 : reasons for refusing my countenance to such a la SO Int place, it appears to me, to say the least, lisle =say, masi:saly—to take advantage publicly Is I •Issimff wbisk WM tritely intended fur n parliaalsr sad Is am, sad &decay marked ' pri vate.' "That letter was addressed to one professing himself to be a convert from dissent to the established church—one whose mind was said to be disturbed by reason of certain proceedings with respect to foreign pastors,' to such ad e gree, that a return to dissent was contemplated. But before taking such a step, he solicited counsel from the archbishop and received a private note in reply, not encouraging his return to a communion where episcopal ordination is held to be useless, but on the centrary, endeavouring to retain him in one where, for ages, it has been practised sad revered. In whatever way that letter might have been written, whether hurriedly from the pressure of business, ur with that earnest spirit of charity which would be ' all things to all men that it might gain some,' be that as it may, I con tend that the very fact of its swing been declared pri vate ' ought to have rendered red and utterly pre cluded criticism. " Much has been said and written of late years regard ing the respect and reverence duo to our superiors in the sacred ministry, and surely an open attack upon the highest dignitary of our church—one, moreover, of the most exem plary of men, cannot fail to show to the world that either all this parade of reverence has been a farce, or that we have, at least, derived but little benefit from it. " Let us also recollect, gentlemen, that the archbishop's confidence has been cruelly abused by an intriguing mem ber of that corrupt and unscrupulous church, which, though fur a time has been depressed, is now eneleavoutiug by every possible means to regain its elasticity, and is em ploying its subtle agents in almost all parts of the world. Noiselessly, stealthily, and serpent-like do these emissaries of the Vatican labour in their dark vocation, the effects of whose labours arc discovered only_ by the convulsions of evil which they produce, as is strikingly evinced in the in stance now under consideration. When we bear in mind that our venerable primate has been the victim of such a confederacy of evil, surely he ought rather to have been sus tained by our sympathy titan pained by our animadversions That every human being is liable to err, and that none are faultless, would be aeknowledged, I venture to believe, by no man sooner than the archbishop himself, and well would it have been, had his grace taken measures for ascertaining, say, through the mealuin of the clergyman of the parish, who this profeweally earnest and lowly-minded person— William Fraucis Cawthorn—really was, before he ventured on any private communication with ham. But, true it is, that ' to the pure all thinsts ore pure.' " One thing, gentlemen, is most certain—that the said William Francis Gawthorn rejoices in tho evil spirit to which his shameless deceit has given rise—the very spirit which popery desires to see amongst us, that of dissension and bitterness. Oh! that the members of our purer com munion would hear in laded the words of our exalted Read, a huuse divided against itself cinema stand!' and, instead of ,taking an al eztni view of the conduct of our clergy, would rather cover with a mantle of charity and christian love, what they think to be worthy of blame. Surely, this coutinnal system of unholy warfare which seems to have become of late almost habitual to us, each man being jealous or suspicious of his neighbour's views or actions, must be most repugnant to the mind of our Divine :darter, and most injurious to the cause of true religion. "That the whole of this proceeding has been an on. blushing effort of the adherents of the papacy to cause dis ' union amongst us, must be at once evident to every one acquainted with the facts of the case. Instead, then, of contending amongst ourselves would it not be a far wiser parse to remember that we have to deal with the foe front without—a foe crafty, subtle, dexterous—well practised is all the arts of intrigue, and which aims at the entire do structiou of our spiritual Zion. And ought not such cir cumstances as these to cause us to evince a disposition to compose our own differences, and to join our forces in ono united and compact array, so that we may ha able cactus' ally to resist the inroads of popery, if not altogether to sup press that pernicious superstition, which, whether reli giously or politically considered, is the very bane of Chris tendom. " As regards the divine doctrine of the apostolic succes sion, it may with comfort be asserted that it is a great and glorious fact, and, as a fact, is independent of men's minds and opinions. A tact it is that it has been most carefully preserved in our beloved church of England, and that fact could not be altered were all men so regardless of its truth as to believe the contrary. It is, gentlemen, a great reality, which is very distasteful to the Itouniuist, simply because it is an axe at the root of the papal supremacy ; for if all bishops be successors of the apostles, then arc they the Bishop of Rome's equals ; and then the monopoly of grant ing mission to all bishops is wrested from the sovereign pontiff, because the Word of God declares that Timothy and Titus derived their mission, nut from St. Peter, but from St. Paul. The truth is, the doctrine of the apostolic succession and the authority of bishops in the church of God, builded upon that succession, are against papal tyranny, and therefore Rome is against them. This suffi ciently accounts for the language of that celebrated bul wark of the papacy, Cardinal /kllarmiue, who wrote as follows : " Bishops are not properly the successors of tho apostle!, because the apostles were not ordinary but extraordinary pastors, such as from the nature of their delegation could have no slICC0110111: " That this same doctrine should be opposed by the advo cates of parity as well as by the advocates of papal supre macy, is in no degree marvellous, since it teaches the great scripture truth, that schism, whether tricked out in the gaudy frippery of Romish tinsel, its gilded mitres, em broidered vestments, and all the pomp and circumstance which decoy the simple ; or whether in the person of the deluded followers of Emanuel Swedenborg, whatever guise it wears, is still the same blot on christian unity,—the same foul excrescence on the heavenly vine.—l am, gentle men, yours most respectfully, JAMES BONWELL, " Incumbent of St. Philip's, Stepney.

It was generally supposed that as the warrant had not been executed lust night, it would not perhaps be so. However, this morning, on the assembling of the court, Mr. Itamshay st.ted that he had signed the warrant last night. Mr. Lewinles intimated that Mr. Whitty was at his office, and thereupon Mr. Stone, the superior officer of the court, proceeded at once to enforce it. It having been announced that Mr. Whitty would leave the railway station for Lancaster Castle at one o'clock, • great concourse of respectable persons assembled at Ow Lime-street station at that hour to witness his departure. On making his appearance in the custody of Mr. Stone, high bailiff of the County Court, and several assistants, Mr. Whitty was warmly greeted with hearty cheers, shaking of hands, and every demonstration of sympathy calculated to encourage and cheer him. lie appeared to be in good spirits, and received the cordial demonstrations of his friends with the utmost goad humour and satisfaction. At half-past one the train started amidst loud cheers. This afternoon, one of the most numerous meetings of magistrates that ever assembled in Liverpool took place In the grand jury room of the Assize Courts. Although the circular calling the meeting had been issued only three hours, there were between 30 and 40 gentlemen holding her Majesty's commission of the peace in attendance at the meeting. The subject was well known to be the extraor dinary conduct of the judge of the county court, but in the present stage of proceedings it was not deemed expedient to admit the representatives of the press. We have, how ever ascertained, from a source that is entitled to the most implicit credence, that the presence of Dr. M'lntyre and two other entineut physicians had been specially secured, from which the opinion generally entertained as to the proper course to be pursued may be more easily con jectured than safely predicated. Indeed, charity itself suggests such an opinion. At toe meeting of the court this morning, The Judge, on taking his sent, said it was desirable to make a few observations in reference to the disgraceful occurrences which had taken place in the court. They must be extremely vexing to himself, and offimsive to every one. He had now found it necessary . to give direct orders to the officers that every man who interfered in an improper manner with the proceedings of the court should be treated by him with the most severe punish ment. He had now come to the conclusion that it was necessary to have the matter decided whether the court was to be treated with proper respect, or be insulted and rendered anything but respectable by the filthy comments and insults of the town, lie would try whether the law or the slanderer and the libeller shauld prevail. That question he was prepared to try, and he would urge that trial to its utmost limits—depend upon that. He hoped by that course to secure that respect due to the officers of the court and the judge of it. In the course of the proceedings on the preceding day he had occasion to say that the course pursued was necessarily such as to excite the minds of ignorant persons against the judge, and against the court, and he had a painful proof of it that morning. He held in his hand a letter threatening him with assassination. It was a painful proof of the natural tendency and consequence of such proceedings as were on the previous day the subject of inquiry. He held in his hand a letter threatening him with assassination on this very day; but he would tell the dirty slanderer, if present there, that he feared him not. The usual business was then proceeded with. Irewicu.—Tho count for tho revision of the borough list of electors was held on Wednesday last, before C. Evans, Esq., barrister, at the Town Hall, Ipswich. Mr. Lawrence appeared for the liberals; Mr. Clabon, in the absence of Mr. Pownall, for the conservatives.

Sis,—l am directed by the committee of the " London Union on Church Matters", to forward to you for publication the enclosed correspondence. 1 regret that it was impossible to publish it earlier, but the committee of the uaiuu did not meet this afternoon.-1 nm, Sir, &c., WM. T. YOUNG. "1, Lancaster-place, 23rd Sept., 18.51. "My Lord,—l have been requested by the committee of the London Union on Church Matters,' ut a meeting over which I was unespectedly called to preside this afternoon, to invite moat respectfully your lordship's attention to the use made in the various Romanist and dissenting organs of a letter recently published, and bearing the name of our highest ecclesiastical authority. " The fact which is assamed to be established by that I letter, viz., the concurrence of all the bishops but one or two, and the vast majority of the clergy, in the belief that the absence of episcopal ordination constitutes no disqualiti cation fur the due administering of Christ's ordinances in the catholic church, is one which, uncontradicted, causes the greatest perplexity and disquiet to many members of our communion. " That your lordship's personal sentiments are misinter preted in this publication we are ourselves convinced ; for we find a complete refutation of the sentiment imputed to you in the following extract from your Lent Sermons of 1842, p. 60: Our present position is this:— "'Our blessed Lord gave to his apostles a general commis sion to build his church ; and a promise of the Holy Spirit to guide them in all things necessary for the due execution of their all-important task ; as well as an assurance of his own continued presence with the ministry, even to the end of the world. Under that authority, and with the certainty of that guidance, the holy apostles did proceed to construct the church, according to a certain form of polity, which, so being of apostolical origin and authority, was observed by the universal church in all its branches for many ages so that it was never even thought of that any persons should claim authority to minister the word and sacraments, who had not been ordained by a bishop. The doctrine of an apostolical succession in the ministry is asserted by the presbyterian divines, as well as by . ourselves only they maintain that the ministerial commission has descended through a succession of presbyters; we, that it has come down to us through a line of bishops ; and that we have the testimony of all history on our side, 1 think has been already proved.' , 11 e are persuaded thata public reference to this passage, as a true expression of the doctrine of the church of Eng land on the subject of episcopal ordination, would be a great means of re-assuring many doubting and tit %wilding minds, and we therefore would earnestly request your lordship's sanction to our making use of the above extract fur tho pur pose,.as containing a sufficient disavowal of an imputation so injurious to the church. " I have the honour to be, with the highest respect, my lord, your lordship's most obedient and humble servant, (Signed) Wm. H. I'dttt, Chairman. "The Right Hon. Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of London." " Fulham, Sept. 25,1841. "My dear Dr. Mill, —My three sermons on the church are of course publici jurist; and, as I retain unchanged the opinions expressed in them, I can have no objection to your referring to any part of them.

I take this opportunity of stating that an account which aptcared In the ChurcA and Seale Cia:ette of my haring inMecil at the ceremony of laying the first stone of the French church in St. Martin's-le-Grand is wholly un true. Neither was I present on that occasion, nor did I ever allude to it. The writer probably confounded that ceremony with the consecration of the French episcopal church, of which the lice. J.

TAYLOR rose to move —" That the resolution I of the commissioners at their meeting, held on the ltith inst.—' that in laying the 24-inch main, which the court have given the Great Central Gas Consumers Company permiss on to do, from the west c nd of Cheapsidc to the east end of Leadenhall-street, that the work must he executed between the hours of seven o'clock in the evening and eight o'clock in the morning, under the direction of the surveyor of this court '—be rescinded, that company not having complied with the requirements of the 131 th section eat the City of London Sewers Act, 1848, or with the same require ments contained in the 30th section of their own act. - ' The previous question was carried after some discussion, not more than three members having held up their hands against it. Mr. WIIITESIDE then rose to propose the following resolution That so much of the resolution of the com missioners passed at their meeting on the 16th inst., in re ference to the Great Central Gas Consumers' Company, as restricts the time for laying down their main from the west-end of Cheapsidc to the east-end of Leadenhall-street, to between the hours of 7 o'clock in the evening and S o'clock in the morning, be rescinded, and that it may be completed with the utmost despatch, the said company be allowed to execute such work by clay as well as by night under the direction of the surveyor." lie was convinced it would be advantageous to the public to allow the com pany to proceed with the work with the greatest rapidity, and it was quite evident that they would lay the pipes more securely and effectively by day than by night. The conse quence of this permission would be that the inconvenience which in such a thoroughfare must arise from the obstruc tion, would be of comparatively very short duration. Mr. HALL, of Dishopsgate, seconded the motion, which was ultimately negatived. THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY. Yesterday, an adjourned meeting in this matter, in which a large number of persons are interested, was held in Vice-Chancellor Turner's Court, before his Honour the Master in Chancery Iluntohry, to receive affidavits and depositions, to satisfy the court that the order absolute to wind up the affairs of the undertaking had been obtained by the solicitors and parties concerned, with the sanction and authority of Mr. Feargus O'Connor, M.l'., who was present during the proceedings, occupying, with some of the directors and others connected witlt the defunct scheme, the bench allotted to solicitors, the Master at the last meeting having intimated that he would not appoint an official manager until all the circumstances connected with the transaction were fully explained ; and that unless this were satisfactorily done, there might be reasons fur rescind- Mg the order. The following counsel were present:—Mr. Bagshawe, Mr. Roxburgh, Mr. Win. James, Mr. Chichester, Mr. De Gee, Mr. Sweet, Mr. Rogers, Mr. A. Hill, and numerous solicitors. The proceedings were commenced by Mr. Drake, the chief clerk, reading the following resolutions," handed in to the court, passed at a meeting of the land members of the Leicester Branch of the National Land Company, on the 27th of September, and which, in their literatim form, if they do nothing more, go to illustrate the fact that " the echoolinaster" is not yet universally abroad. " We, being members of the Leicester Branch of the National Land Company hereby declare, that fur a con siderable time past wo have viewed with suspitiou ' the I acts of the solicitor and directors on whom devolved the management of the company's affair's and being fully con vinced that the majority of our feller members hat e long since ceased to repose trust in these men, we cannot refrain from expressing our entice disaproval of Mer conduct with regard to thier appointment of an official mancuer in winding up of our affairs ' • wo therfuro earnestly hop that the Master in Chancery will not be induced to gratify thier sinster motive by the selection of thier nomine, one whomo we sincerely belive would be icapable of nfording satisfaction to the poor men, who have been induced to embark thier hard earned pence in the project. We, after due consideration, feel confidence that Mr. 'lhoinas l'rice, having is prior kno lidge of the misdeeds of the directors, and from his well known business habits, his qualification of the highest order, his uniform uprightness and 'mutuality, is emenently cal culated for the office of official manger; and having the uter meet confidence in that gentellinan, we hereby respectfully pray that Master liumplay will be plumed to apoint Mr. l'rice to assist his Honour in winding up the company. Proposed by . William Lapworth ; seconded by James Clarke; carried unianimotie.'—W tus.n GREENE, chir man ; *f MINUS NEWTON, secretary." Itiemlutions were also read, forwarded from a meeting of the Bristol branch shareholders, in favour of the same can didate for the official managership, and denying that be cause he had been manager of the Land and !.about Bank in connexion with the Land Company, he was "ineligible" to be appointed official manager to wind up the affairs of the latter company. Mr. Sweet then proceeded to read the affidavits filed with the court since the last meeting. The affidavit of Mr. W. I'. Roberts, solicitor, of Man chester, set forth that he was solicitor on behalf of the company, appointed by the g. neral body of shareholders, and had been so from the company', formation. Mr. Feargus O'Connor, M.P., late of Notting-hill. terrace, was one of the promoters, and eliaitinan mid manager of the company, and as such always gave deponent the necessary instructions for transacting the general legal business of the company, either directly, or through Mr. Chinery, of ltubert--street, Arlelphi, who was formerly denent's managing clerk, and Was now his London agent. Mr. o Feargus O'Connor, as such general manager having failed to get the company Reno:L atently registered as a joint stock company, by the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench, in Trinity Term,lS.so, instructed deponent in July of that year, as his solicitor, to apply to parliament for au act to wind up the company, to do al that was necessary to obtain such act, and to wind up its affairs as soon us possible. Steps were taken for this, but in consequence of the lateness of the session, Mr. Feargus O'Connor informed deponent that lie had been assured by members and officers of the House of Commons that the bill could not be got through all its stages before the SeS4Oll closed, and instructed him to suspend further proceedings until November, when Mr. Feargus O'Connor again instructed deponent to do all that was necessary for renewing the application to parliament in the last session. Notices were given, arid the bill was pre pared and introduced into the Rouse of Commons upon the petition of Feargus O'Connor and other directors of the company, representing the general body of share holders ; and during its progress through both houses de ponent was constantly in communication with Mr. O'Con nor, personally or by letter, or through his agent, on the subject of the progress of the bill and the company gene. rally, and Mr. O'Connor attended the standing order curn mittee of the House of Commons, and gave evidence in support of the preamble, and was constantly in attend ance in the House of Commons during its progress, i.ud was fully aware of its passing the house, and of its intro. duction and progress through the Lords, but at the time it went into committee, and shortly before its third reading and passing, Mr. O'Connor left England fur the conti nent without communicating with deponent or his agent. Deponent was consequently unable to cummunicate with Mr. O'Connor further upon the business and state of the company, but considered that ho had full per functory instructions so soon as the act of parliament was obtained to procure the necessary order for winding up the company without delay, in the name of Mr. O'Connor, notwithstanding the absence of the latter, and deponent's inability to communicate with him as general manager, after having ghee in that capacity the fullest instructions to deponent to wind up the company in his name. Had he not done so lie would have neglected his duty, and deponent was bound to present the petition to the court in the name of Mr. Feargus O'Connor, to show the earnest desire of that gentleman, so often expressed during the progress of the bill in parliament, to fulfil his promise to the House of Commons to have the company wound up, and its assets realised and distributed, as the law would not allow the association to exist as a company. Deponent was not aware that Mr. O'Connor knew that the act of parliament hail passed, or that an order had been obtained to wind up the company, although the order had been obtained by witness nominally in Mr. O'Connor's name, which was prominently mentioned in the act of parliament. An affidavit was also read iu confirmation of the above statements, from Mr. Chinery, the London agent for Mr. Roberts. The affidavit of Mr. Feargus O'Connor, of Colliam-house, Hillingdon, set forth that gentleman's recognition and ap proval of all the proceedings that had been taken in the matter in his name by Mr. Roberts, as solicitor to the com pany. His absence on the Continent since July last was caused by ill-health. Mr. Sweet then contended that the facts contained in the affidavits that had been read were strictly consonant with each other, and that the parties had not any intention of misleading the court. It was possible that Mr. Roberts, on the first starting of the company, might have been Mr. O'Connor's private solicitor; and Mr. O'Connor, finding that he belonged to a class of men in this country whose political opinions coincided with his own, arid finding him fit in all other respects, might, with the sanction of the share holders, appoint Mr. Roberta solicitor to the company for its formation, and Mr. O'Connor alone being the recog nised actor, with the responsibility of everything being done in his name, but in all his private affairs, on the com pany being formed, employing another solicitor. Mr. Roberts had not, as had been alleged, any private connexion in Lis capacity as solicitor with Mr. O'Connor. Owing to some alleged illegalities in the constitution of the company, all matters were dune in Mr. O'Connor's name, mid there was nothing more in it than in a common ease of trying to evade the revenue laws, in which there was nothing heinous. In ender to avoid the liability to penalties by carrying on the Land and Labour Bank in connexion with the Land Coin , piny, in order to avoid the forfeiture of the estates, every thing was done in Mr. O'Connor's name by Mr. Roberts, as his solicitor, and that was what was meant on "priv'ate's 'pension, by saying that Mr. Roberts acted as his sslicitor. His Honour the Master —Am I to understand from your abghfutreatthedobeubnteli; benefit of eethemlrvrasdtiwonscomeet—Othap.t the ban company? fthathat there w reia as n c o ar t ri th ed e s o l n i the company got no benefit from it. (Laughter.) Mr.lataes—lt was clearly ascertained that the land com pany could not be bankers, and Mr. O'Connor was then registered as the proprietor. It was his private bank, and not the shareholders' bank. The Master—Did Mr. O'Connor ever intend to claim any intermediate benefit arising from the conduct of the bank? Mr. Sweet—No I believe not. Mr. James — M r. O'Connor being advise! by 3lr. Sweet, u counsel for the company, that he must be the sole han ker, it was carried on in his name. Mr. Sweet li..lievetl it would be found that the bank was Mr. O'Connor's and not the company's. Mr. Chinery—The bank was established contrary to Mr. O'Connor's wish. Mr. Sweet—Some of the witnesses, in the ]louse of Com mons, stated that the bank was essential to the success Of the scheme and theory of the land company, and that the money without it woul I not come in fist enough. Mr. Price was paid his salary out of the deposits of the bank. Mr. James—Mr. Priee's engagement was a personal one with Mr. O'Connor, and his payment was also personal. The Master—Probably Mr. O'Connor held a letter of in demnification from the shareholders for whose interest he did this. Mr. Roxhurgh.—The deposits were paid into the hank, and the salary of Mr. Price and other clerks was paid out of them, and so Mr. Price had been manager of the Land and Labour Bank for five years, at 5001. a year, the com pany would be 2.5001. the worse for Mr. Price. Mr. James.—The Bank is 3,0001. the better for Mr.Pricc. (Laughter.) The Bank began with a deffiit of 6,000/.. and ended, under Mr. Price's management, with a deficit of ouly 3,0001. Mr. Roxburgh.—And no profits throughout. (Laugh ter.) The banking profits were purely visionary. Mr. Sweet.—The profits were made by lending money to the National Land Company and receiving interests. (Cries of " Not so.") Mr. James protested against these unauthentic assertions, and denied their correctness. Mr. Sweet submitted it was of great importance that the question raised, as between Mr. Roberts and Mr.O'Connor, should be set right. Mr. James urged that the connexion he formerly asserted to subsist uctween Mr. Roberts and Mr. O'Connor was still so, and that Mr. Roberts was Mr. O'Connor's solicitor. as it suited, and according to the emergency of the moment. Mr. O'Connor.—No, no. Mr. Bagshaw (addressing the Master).—Mr. O'Connor wishes me to inform you that Mr. Roberts never was his solicitor; and that he knew nothing of the proposal of lir. Amycr or Mr. Price. Thu Muster said it still appeared to him that ho was right in requiring the further evidence that had been given re specting the authority received front Mr. O'Connor to pre sent the petition for winding up the cowpony in his name. The atfidai its were not inconsistent one with another, but the original affidavits were defective in not having stated that the petition was presented with Mr. O'Connor's sanction. Unquestionably, on a review of all the facts, it would have been far better and far more correct for the parties to hate stated that the petition had been presented and the order obtained " nominally " for Mr. O'Connor, and in his name, in consequence oi the manner in which his name appeared in the act of parliament. It would have been better to have stated that the order was obtained under Mr. O'Connor's general uothority, but the original affidavits made no averment of this. The affidavit, however, of Mr. O'Connor confirmed the fact of a general delegation of authority. With respect to the connexion that might be supp.sed to subsist between Mr. O'Connor and Mr. Roberts, in the capacity of solicitor, ho confessed that lie did not quite understand it. Witit reference to the appointment of either an interim manager or of two official managers to wind up the company's affairs, it was a paint to which he would give particular attention IL was not, on tire present occasion, prepared to COMIC to a candy4on, but would take time to consider, and notify it by public advertisement.

(Fries the Meal Itepirt.) The health of London is much better than it was in the two previous week., when the deaths of 1,028 and 1.097 persons were register, I. The deaths of 908 persons were recorded in the week ending Satunlay, Sept. 27; 470 were miles, and 480 were females; 190 were of the age of 60 and upwards, 460 were children under the age of 10, and 308 were men and women in the middle period of life. The decrease in the mortality is general over the lice divisions of London. 141 persons died in the public institutions: G 9 in workhouses, 8 in military and naval asylum, ' 08 in hos pitals, 3 in lunatic asylums, 2 in military and naval hos pitals, and lin prison. Small-pox and typhus have de clined, but they were the causes of 13 and 46 deaths. Of the small-pox victims 11 had not been vaccinated ;2, it is stated, had been vaccinated. 39 children and 2 adults died of scarlatina, which is prevailing in many districts. 7 persons died of erysipe:as, 8 woman in childbirth and of mettle the following fever. Consumption was fatal to 12:1 persons ; 100 of the 308 deaths at the age between 15 and 60 were referred to this constant cause which bereaves hu many parents of their children, so many children of their parents. Violence, typhus, heart disease bronchitis, and cancer are the diseases next in the order Of fatality at the same period of life. Diarrlmai is declining ; the deaths in the 0 tett weeks were 174, 192, 101, 97, and 91 in number. The deaths from cholera in the same weeks were 28. 17, 17, 7, 9. Half of the cases were of intro than three days duration. It has been mentioned beft.re, that half the fatal cares of the epidemic cholera terminate in 21 hours after the first striking symptoms have appeared. Another singular difference is shown in the annexed table. The population of London on the north side of the Thames in 18.51 was 1,748,090, on the south side of the Thames, 610,540; numbers nearly in tho proportion of 3to 1. Yet the numbers of deaths from cholera iu the year 1849 on both sides of the river was nearly equal, 7,003 and 7,137. In the recent summer cholera the deaths have been distributed more equally, and in the proportion of the population.
