The affair of Edward Murray as approaching a de cisive conclusion. His Holiness is to look over the rieAL elo. or summary of the evidence and trial, in a day or two, and when that formality is gone through his sovereign tint will be pronounced. Ile has already urn the petition forwarded through the consul by the British residents in Home, and has returned it to Cardinal Antonelli, with orders for it to be brought to him kmin, together with the rise ret to. His eminence meanwhile is to ascertain the respectability of the parties who signed the petition, and has applied for that purpose to Mr. Petri., who will be able to satisfy the cardinal fully in the matter, as he is personally acquainted with almost all the subscribers. The instructions nx, Ivey from the foreign office inculcate the necessity of using every exertion to save the prisoner's life, and no doubt Mr. Peter, as well as Signor Ercole, who has born appointed to the office of pro-consular agent during the absence of Mr. Freeborn, will act op to the spirit of their orders. The lintish consul at .tneona has not yet received permi.sion from Home to see Murray alone, which is a tact that reflects no great credit upon the Papal government and tribunals, as, if everything had been carried on fairly, there could be no possible objec tion. now that the trial is concluded and sentence passed, to allow the prisoner to hold free converse with a fellow-countryman. Whatever the opinion a the public regarding Edward Murray may be at Ancona, or elsewhere, there is no doubt that all agree in one sentiment of admiration at the energetic demonstration of the Itrai,h government, and the humane patriotism of those members of the legislation who rushed at once to the the succour of a countryman in distress, a:though humble and afar oft: Musts sensation had been produced in Rome by an athuipt on the part of a Neapolitan footman to-poi son the French ambassador and his family, all of shuns had a narrow escape.

It is probably known to many of our readers that the forms and ceromonies adopted by the Vicar of T•w sboreham in the celebration of divine service at the psr•h church partake so l►rgely of those commonly deemed that a very considerable number—we believe the rat majority—of the respectable parishioner have for moo years past felt compelled to discontinue their attend as« at the parish church, and have established a tree thumb in Shoreham, where, under the ministry of the Itev. T. E. (rood, protestant service is performed substan tally according to the forms of the Church of England— Mat is, of the protestant section of that church. Amongst the prote•tants thus driven from their perish cholli toes Mr. W alma% Clayton, a wealthy and h.! inhabitant of Shoreham, who fur fifty years had been tci ~ f the most earnest and hearty adherents of the Beta -1,. died Church, and was a constant attendant at his pariah riurth so long as really protestant services were celebrated Suleequently Mr. Clayton has become an active raNsorter of the Free Church, being one of the trustees and a ,!.urchwarden. frOicsd;;;ilay, the 16th of June, Mr. Clayton died, at a rip old age, and universally respected, and bin family amorally desired that be should be buried in the burial tr,und of the pariah church, according Mlle usual ceremo ef the Church of Etialonil. To this, the emnmatt ri g ht "sun parishioner, it became rumoured that Mr. W haeler, he Vicar of Shoreham, objected. Iles ground of objection *4 said to be that the late Mr. Clayton had never of late est• add the pari•lehureli, but worshipped in a seeemice fhipel." To the infinite theiguit of the people of Shoreham ass nuderatood that Mr. Wheeler intended to refuse to permit the body to be taken into the church in the nasal way, and the friends of the deceased obtained legal advice intim :mint.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. BEDYOIIIO.—On Tuesday evening another large !pea air ineetiag of electors and others assembled on the rket Hill, tolear Mr. Annoy. The principal topic of ' his address was the aristocratic system of intimidation and influence at elections, as illustrated by the canvass of his opponent, Mr. Whitbread. Contradictions were attempted by some of Mr. Whitbread's committee, who were present, and to whets by the intervention of Mr. Avidity a fair hear. ing was mewed, but in vain. Mr. Ansley gave the details of some very gross cases of intimidation and nillueuce, with the names of all parties concerned and his statement was confirmed by some of the electors present. The hon. gentle man detrunced vehemently, and amidst loud applause, the conduct of Mr. Whitbread and his committee in employing such arts, and in declining to hold public meeting or give eaplanstious of their sentiments on public topics. MANCHESTER. The committee of Meuse. Bright and Li•hson have published the result of their canvass. At one of the larpst committee meetings, perhaps, ever held at an election, there being nearly 1,400 persons present, Mr. Wilson, who took the chair, gave the following very satis factory statement. He said the gross number of voters upon the register was 13,021. From this they must deduct 286, who had been ascertained to be dead, leaving 13,635. They must also deduct 411 for permits who had removed and had not been seen, and WS for those who, though they had ant removed, hod not been seen by the movement, making a total of 1,146 unseen, and leaving available for the purposes of the analysis a total of 12,4141) electors. Out of these 12,489 the sitting members hail 7010 pledges, and somewhere about 800 were favourable. He wouli not answer for all these 900 being turned into actual votes ; bat, if they took one-half of these as being likely to vote for the present members, that would make the result of their canvass up to this time 7,400 votes. In this he hail taken the duplicates on both sides, as he knew how fallacious were calculations roundel upon any other basis. Ile could nut answer fur the ' , ledges on the other side, but the num ber of positive pledges for Messrs. Loch and Denman re turned in the course of the canvass was 2,963. however, giving to the new candidates all who would not pledge, I numbering 6,53, all the doubtfuls, numbering 4:42 , and all who said they would not vote, it would only bring up the num ber of their supporters to 4,520, against 7,400, which were taken fur the .itting members. (Applause.) Ile would not pledge himself to the actual numbers as now given, but he dared engage that when the declaration was made at four o'clock on the day of the poll, the prop rtions would be wry nearly as he had stated. (Cheers.) Ile said this, because at every other election in Manchester he had men the results of the census made up in the confidential com mittee, and at this time as much attention had been be stowed upon acrutiuising the canvass as had ever been done before. At all former elections they had had the same confident assurances put forth, that the opposing candidate was sure to win, while on every occa sion a majority had been polled in favour of the candidates whom the (fiends of the present members had supported. In their former elections, too, they had had to fight against well organised committees, and against men who were respectable candidates, with reputation, such as their present opponents could not claim. The chairman of the various sutecommittees afterwanls reported sepa rately the result of the canvass in their respective wards, all confirmatory of the general statement above given. Mr. Bright and Mr. Gibson briefly addressed the meeting,which was one of the most enthusiastic ever witnemed. Sount LANCAaltlltE.—fbere 6 rood reason for believing (says a correspondent) that the requisition which wee put Ginn to induce Sir Thomas Ilesketh, Bart., and one of the sons of the Earl of Ellesmere, to stand fur the southern division of the county has been withdrawn. CRICKLIDE.—To the Editor of the Express.— Sir, —Yon are of course aware that we have a Ire. trado candidate started bore in opposition to one, at least, of the present protectionist members for our very ancient and far famed borough; but you are not, perhaps, equally aware that a certain " lady," the relict of a certain great lawyer, and who resides at " the great house" in our neighbour hood, has just sent '• her Factotum" to her tradesmen here, with a polite intimation that they will be expected to give their votes at the coming election to the protectionist can didates; if they do not, they will be employed by her no longer. If our immaculate legislators can punish "my lord " for secret bribery and corruption, why do they not set about making a law to punish " my lady" for open coer cion and intimidation ?—lam, sir, yours, Ike., RUSTICI:S.— J um, 22- MAIDSTONE-1t affords us the highest satisfaction (says the .South Eastern Gautte) to be able to state, from facts that have come to our knowledge, that a proposition that the conservative party should withdraw one of their candid►tes, on condition that the liberal party should re frain from starting a second free-trader, has so far received the sanction of the leading members of both patties, as to enable us to speak of the srrangement as substantially effected, although it will not have been formally ratified till after we have pone to press. Mr. Fector Laurie retires, land Mr. Whatman s seat, and that of Mr. G. Dodd, are now secure. The extraordinary enthusiasm of the Maid , stone people in favour of free trade, and the indisposition (in the present greatly altered state of the law) of the eon ! servative party to risk a recurrence to the means of neutra -1 lising the popular feeling which have been heretofore re sorted to have naturally led to this nault. Mr. Dodd hay ing at this election declared himself a convert to free-trade, although previously a protectionist, the mum of free trade has thus gained two votes in Maidstone. The determined patriotism and firm integrity of the working classes have mainly brought this about, and we believe the spirited ex ample of the honest men of Maidstone will not fad to stamp Late the exertions and strengthen the confidence of those who are struggling for free trade in every other consti tuency. PROPONED CENTRAL CITY TERMINUS. Lost evening Mr. Charles Pearson delivered the first of "two familiar lectures" on his proposed people's highway and Central City 'terminus, at the London Me cheeks' Institution, Southampton- buildings,Chanisery-iane. Mr. l'earson commenced his lecture by observing that he had long felt the necessity et equansing the means of tom munication between the great highways of the metropolis. The city of London might be called the centre of a large circle, and it could not be doubted that as the passengers by the thoroughfares which led to that centre increased, so would increase the crowded state of the streets. Great sad important changes had taken place of late years is the political and moral and social influences of our country ; and he was so fully impressed with this fact, that he had re fleeted on the manner in which, by reason of these changes, he could employ the remainder of his days in being useful to his generation. Now, amongst the evils he desired to remedy woe the overcrowded state of the streets by day; but there was another consideration of paramount importance, vie., the fatal and fearful—he would not say the overerawdMg, nor even the oveteramming, but the overerushing of the dwellings of the poor by night. lie had the honour to serve the corporation of the City of London. It was the meet wealthy city of the most wealthy country in the world, and he might inform his auditors that in a large portion of the City the land was valued for building purposes at from 51,0001. to 250,0001. per square acre. Why was this? Because the City of London was the " habitat " of the great commercial and monetary establishments of the country, and they would find that the importance and value of property were mare particularly felt in the great arterial channels of circulation. The sani tary improvements and reforms which had lately been effected had been of absorbing interest to the country, but the public mind had not yet been routed to the necessity of sowing those seeds of improvement which must prove of the highest utility to the nation. It was admitted that the habitations of the poor were overcrowded; but he had examined the decennial census which had lately appeared, and he had tonne, upon comparing the population with the houses throughout the country, that the houses had been slightly gaining upon the population, whereas, in the metropolis the reverse had taken plate—there the popula tion had been gaining upon the number of houses. In the City of London the population had increased 33 per cent. as compared with the houses, and the rate of mortality had increased in the same ratio in those localities where over crowding was known to exist. He had obtained the re turns from the Inland Revenue °Moe during the last 15 years, and he found from these returns that the over crowding of the streets had ineremed ten per cent. per an num—that was to say, 150 per cent. in lb years. What were the causes of this ? The peorle of England, sines railways earns into fashion, had changed their character sad habits. Those inhabitants of the metropolis who were formerly stationery were now locomotive, and the same ob servation applied to residents in the country, muses of whom now visited London who never attempted the jour ney before. His object in the project new before them WIN to supply a remedy fur those defects which the over crowded state of the metropolis (owing to the causes he alluded to) had produced; and this he proposed to do by converting a site which was now wholly unproductive into a source of benefit and profit. Ills project was to bring into Forringdon-street by a trunk railway all the great northern lines that might choose to come there, and then to estab lish one grand centre of communication between the City of London and some of the most important towns in England. This would, doubtless, involve the necessity of removing • certain amount of property, but it must be borne in mind that it was property of • very inferior kind, and the govern ment had already advanced to the corporation serious sums of money to dear the roads and improve the thoroughfare. He proposed to make • street of 100 feet wide from Hol born valley to the Caledonian-road, and thus to afurd to the people the meats ol breathing freely and relieving themselves from the noxious influences of an overcrowded eosdition. If the railways he had mentioned did not see fit to aid him in the undertaking he could do without them, for he was quit. sstisfied that there was • larger amount of profit to be made out of the scheme without any connexion with railways than from any project which lied been started ' during his recollection, it the public would only support him.—Mr. Pearson proceeded to point out the many ed. vantages that must accrue from the succeuful accomplish , meat of his object, and illustrated by means of models, maps, and diagrams, the practical manner in which his pro ject might be carried out with infinite advantage to the • public. 'the lecture was listened to with much attention, and was received with considerable epplause.

The Bishop of Rochester, Mr. Baron Parke, and Dr. Loshington having taken their seats, Mr. Cowling resumed for the respondent'. lie coma saeneed by retinues to sthe suppressors& of offices by the dean and chapter. The first two of suppressed were, he said, those of deacon awl sub-deacon. These two officers were to be laymen, and were to read the divine service; they were termed gospellers." No mach officers had existed sine. the time of Chitties the Beeond. The duties were now performed by • clergyman, and the dean and chapter very properly declined to till them up. As to the offices of butler, porter, cook, and sub-cook, they were all attendants on the common hall, which had long ceased to exist, and which no person had expressed a wish to revise. With regard to the bedesmen, Mr. Whiston's conduct wee both inexplicable and inexcusable. He mast have known that under the charter and statutes the dean met chapter 'had no power to appoint them, the appointment resting entirely with the crown. Mr. Whist.. complained that the dean and chapter had discontinued the payment of 201. towards the relief of the poor, and 201. towards the wainteumes of the highways. The regulations with regard to the poor and the highways had been entirely changed since the statutes were teamed ; and so far from the pay ment of 401. having been discontinued, many hundreds were now paid in other forms. Mr. Whiston alleged that • sum of 531. Os. Sd. ought to be expended annually in repairs. He admitted the obligation; but, in point of fact, no less than 20,0001. had been spent in repairs during the last 211 years. The next point was the alleged neglect of the school. It was true that Mr. Warner, the previous master, was unsuccessful; but the dean and chapter adopted every means in their power to remedy the evil. They pen sioned off Mr. Warner, and took great pains to apponit a good outcome. One gentleman presented testimonials stronger than those of other candidates, and that gentle man was Mr. Whiaton himself. Mr. Wkiffion was appointed ; the stipend of the office was increased ; his brother-in-law was made his widest, also et an increased misty. As to the four University scholars, the specific Payment of 51. a year to each was all that could fairly be insisted upon. It appeared from the "Lila of Kirke White" that he lived at college, without private resources, and was actually in the receipt of money arising from his college pursuits. Ile contended that all Mr. Whiston's charges were untounded. His pamphlet was not a calm production designed to convince the dean and chapter that they bad bee• mistaken, and to lead them into the right path, but an attack wholly unwarranted by the facto. The scope and aim of the pamphlet were to consign to infamy seven men who were his superiors, and who were members of the same cathedral as himself. Where was there any provocation for his conduct ? Was it in his receiving a house which he did not require of the value of 401. a ear?y Or was it in his having the privilege of taking boarders, 30 or 40 of whom he had at the time when he entered on his office ? If there could be any doubt as to the propriety of charac terising Mr. Whiston's offence as gravies delictuen, it was whether the expression should not rather be gratrimanuni delictum. What might have been the rank had other perms connected with the cathedral imitated the example thus set them/ Looking at the case in all its bearings, the court would, he trusted, come to the conclusion that the dean and chapter would have shrunk from their duty it they had not dismissed Mr. Whiston ; and be submitted, therefore, that the decision of the dean and chapter must be affirmed. Mr. Whitton then replied. He said they had now heard the defence of the Deers and Chapter—a defence not impro vieed, but prepared in the most careful m . The Deao and Chapter bad had an opportunity of saying everything that they could say against himself, his conduct, and his pamphlet, and they had not attempted to contradict or to gainsay a single substantive fact which he had alleged. He stood before the court uninjured in character, unda maged by all the charges which he should new proceed to dispel. He should commence by taking a brief survey of the chief incidents connected with and subsequent to his second dismissal. Notwithstanding what Mr. Cowling bad said of him, he had reason to believe, that if he would have apologised, he might have been reinstated in his office. His application to Vice-Chancellor Wignun was refused only on the ground that that court was not • proper one to take cognisance of the trust ; the judge distinctly tie that he ought to have been heard by the Dean and Chapter. The Dean and Chapter shirked a trial of the ca., on its merits before a jury. They preferred to try the question themselves, and served him with& citation, to show them thathehadUotdone what they had previously found him guilty of doing. Acting under high advice, he put in a protest. It was unfair in Dr. Addams to represent that act uan attempt to avoid the trial of the merits. His feeling was, that he would not have a fair trial before those who were at once his accusers and his judges. The question was, were the Dean and Chapter acting in a judicial wacky ? The issuing of the citation on appeal was a judicial act; by that he was summoned to show cause why he should not suffer penalty and deprivation; and he was ultimately dismissed on the ground that he had been guilty of the charges alleged against him. He then refereed to the statutes of the cathedral for the purpose of showing that the common seal of the chapter had been improperly need to summon him. It was a well-established principle of law that where persons acted under a power they must comply with the directions of that power ; and the Dean and Chapter had gate in opposition to that principle. The authorities all went to show that both judge and defen dant must be present in every judicial proceeding; and to this requisition the citation was opposed. He then adverted to the charges made against him by . Dr. Addams of wilful misstatement; and referred to a visitation made by Archbishop Parker to the cathedral in 1560, for the pur pose of showing that it elicited facts far worse than; any which he had published in his pamphlet. Under such circumstances he ought not to have been accused of mala fides in suppression. [I he rev. gentleman here handed up to the bench a paper containing, as he said, a statement of matters suppressed in the first edition of his pamphlet, observing that he purposely abstained from reading them in court.] As regarded the exhibitioners, he had in vain endeavoured to Ascertain what had been Paid to them for the last thirty years; out, from a later which he held in his hand, it clearly appeared that a petson who as B.A. was entitled to 61. a year received only 61., and that, when he became M.A. and was en titled to receive 61. 13e, he intnally received only 61. Three letters were written by him to the Dean and Chapter and ultimately he got the proper amount. The dean and chapter had originally assigned to them 2201. a year, and the boys and students 801. The proportion was therefore at first llto 1 ; whereas at present it was 6,600 to 1. He was accused of being a false, @mullions, malignant, and vituperative man for pointing out such abuses. There was another accusation against him of a still more serious char acter, and which if true would have made it impossible for him to sit there that morning. Dr. Addams hod accused hint of having falsified and forged a data for the purpose of founding on that falsification and forgery a charge against the De in and Chapter. On what did it rest? Absolutely on nothing Mat a miecopying of 20 as 26. Was it likely that he should have been guilty of such conduct when the ori ginal was in the hands of the Dean and Chapter? He was proceeding to refer to the documents in his own defence, when Mr. Baron Parke intimated that he was convinced that there was no intentional miecopying. Mr. Whiston continued—As tegardisd the number of minor canons, the statute esprsetlf stated that there should be six for ever • and it was no to the late Archbishop of ' Canterbury to say hod *a authority to limit the number to three. It was said that he bad ac cused the dean and chapter of having offices for their own emolument. Ile= ITT re: What he said was simply this, that these dim had been and were suppressed, not" for," but " to " the profit of the dean and Chapter. The learned counsel (Dr. Adios)asid they lost by turning four minor canons bite an.. Now, what were the facia ? Previously to the redaction, the minor canons rejoiced in the muallsoat salary of 301. a year • but by act of pediment, the salary was ;aimed to 150/. • year alai a house. Four minor canons at 301. • year amounted to 1201. a year, and four houses for them at 401. • year added to 1201. made • total of 2801. The single canon substituted for the four received, therefore, 901. a year lees than would have been paid to fort minor canons. It was not to he forgotten that livings were requised by the minor canons; and he believed that, since the new arrangement was effected, a elm acme of the tenons had been appointed to a living of 8001. • year. In 1838 Dr. Griffiths, representing the Dean and Chapter of Rochester, s urged upon the Eeelesiastical Coin miesioners that the suppression of the great canaries was wrong in principle and subvenive of the interests of the church ; while, only six months before, they had themselves suppressed three minor ethonries. He then dwelt on the obligation of the chapter to distribute all the funds at their disposal for the several objects provided for, and the impropriety of their keeping a surplus for their own benefit. 11e nest proceeded to speak of the fines, the antiquity of which, he observed, could not be denied, and endeavoured to show by references that they were not de signed to augment the incomes of tho chapter. In the sta tutes of the Rochester Cathedral there was no mention of fines ; but there were provisions with regard to the letting of farms which in spirit were opposed to the taking of fined by the chapter. The present system of renewal every seven years was prohibited in spirit, if not is terms. In the case of a hospital which he had endowed Archbishop Whitgift ordered that all fines should be ex pended in • certain specified manner, in order, as he said, to afford good security against the encroachments of the master, and his turning the revenues more to his own profit than that of the poor. As respected the bedesmen, what he (Mr. Whiston) asserted wed, that it was the duty of the chapter to recommend the crown to mako the appointments, 401. a year was the amount expended ; and if that MOM had been inverted at ai per cent., and allowed to accumulate from 1800 up to the present time. it would now amount to 6,2301. 125.8 d. Ile had no intention to accuse the chapter of wilfully suppressing the offices ; all he meant to say that they were suppreered. Mr. Baron l'arke said the appellant now admitted that he was incorrect in accusing the dean and chapter of having suppressed the offices. Mr. Whistoi said he still maintained that it was the duty of the chapter to report to the crown that the offices were vacant Dr. Luahington obeerved that he found nothing in the mentaa with regard to the application of the money in Cu. bedekmon were not appointed. Mr. Whikton thought the eotnmon table aught to be kept up for the love, in imitation of Eton. A soma= table WA. a very plea•ant thing, as no doubt hi. lordship (Aaron Parke) remembered in connexion with Trinity. Now in order to jnktify hie di•misrol, the Dean - and Chapter must prove that he had eonimittvd not m rely a libel, but a malicious libel. 1)s. Ai4lllol asked the court to cousida of whom the chapter consisted, some of them being octopi narians. Well, on that subject he had nothing to remark. He must say, however, that if it would be so painful to them to restore him, they should have eonsidered that before they dismissed him. Lord Justice Brun remarked on a recent 1101111.11634 that if it were disagreeable to trustees to continue • present matter, they had an alternative ; and considering that according to a calculation which he made last night, the present members of the chapter and their relations had received altogether, in the shape of dividends and incomes from church Brims, no less than 200,000 i. from the cathe dral church of ltocheigee,be could not but feel that if it would be so very disagreeable to them to have hint near them, they might adopt a certain alternative. Supposing another muter to be put in his place, and the boys to be restored to their lust rights, as it was intimated that they were to be, would any one deny that the alteration would have taken place by his means and agenc y ? With w h a t f ee li ngs would the boys regard another master occupying the place of one who had gained for them their rights ? lle could not help n *king the omission of Dr. Addams to refer to tho fact that Henry VIII. ordained that these boys were to be maintained out of the cathedral revenues. He took his stand upon this plain position, that, irrespective of rent charges, it was the founder's intention that the boys should be maintained out el the revenues ; and the neglect of the chapter to carry out this intention was aggravated by the fact that they had, from lime to time, when their own in terest was considered, ezpressed great reverence fur the wishes of the founder. He then referred at some length to the question of repairing the cathedral, for which pee ped* 531.65. waa set apart by Henry VIII.; and cited the cases s.f other cathedrals to make out the obligation to apply that amount. He then proceeded to argue, at some length, that the Dean and Chapter had beneditted by the suppresaion of various °Meet. Dr. Lushington ohm. mod that there could not be a clearer Proposition, than that if the revenue of the Dean and Chapter was burdened with certain legal charges, end some of those charges were evaded, the Dean end Chap ter benefited to that extent. Mr. Whist= said that was all he had contended in his pamphlet. Mt. &roe Parke inquired whether the suppression of the minor canonries wise not subsequent to the issuing of the report of the Ecclmiartical Commissioners in which sech a course was recommended. Mr. Whims replied that it preceded the report. The total receipts of the cathedral, on en average of 7 years, were 7,0441. 16s. 811.; the average amount of the stipends and salaries in the same period was 7971 13s. ; the total ex penses of the establishment were 1,6321. 18s. • and it was clear that if the expenditure had been increase d by the pay ment of stipends to liedesmen, and by lapesd payments io exhibitioners and others, the surplus divided amongst the members of the chapter would have been so much less. lie would now address himself to the question of libel. In order to make out that he was amenable to the law of libel, it was necessary to show that be had written fora malicious ransom ; Btarkie, the late Chief Justice Tindal, Mr. Baron Parke, and Lord Campbell, had all made übservations to that effect. Ile maintained that if his charges were in the main false, the chapter ought to have proceeded against him by criminal in di ctment. He was even subject to emlesiastical censure, and might have been ordered to do penance. The rev. gentleman then entered into an elaborate argument for the purpose of proving that the 'revue delietust, the commission of which was the sole ground en which the router was removable, was not ap plicable to the offence of which he was accused ; quoting authoritita to show that the expressions had reference to crimes of the gravest character. Alter quoting an extract from his speech in 1848, to show bow conciliatory was his spirit at that period, and how little ground there was for charging him with malevo lent feelings, the rev. gentleman continued thus : My lords, I will not dwell upon what the chapter plead as their excuse—the invariable practice of their predecessors ; for, only 32 years ago, said the Bishop of London, very many of the cathedral statutes are uoturiously disregarded, although every dean and canon has taken a solemn oath to keep all and every of them. 8o said the late Lord Melbourne,—" It is scarcely worth while to preserve bodies to perform duties which they have not performed for 300 yearn, while only a few months ago but one voice was heard in the Commons of England against a measure con ceived and accepted in the spirit of the Bishop of Exeter's declaration—that if the parties who are now members of cathedral bodies shrink from tho performance of the duties assigned to them, he should be very glad to abolish those institutions altogether." And, if this be so,—if in stitutious founded with such care fortified with such bulwarks—confided to such guardians—provided with mesa, so ample—furnished with resources so abundant— and placed in positions so commanding, have proved net the strongest citadels of our Zion, not the most impreg nable fortresses of oar church, but her open weakness and her uncovered shame, until her very friends have been fain to well the cry of her foes, and have almost said, " Down with them, even to the ground." My lords, if this be so—and who can deny it ?—would the founders, and. if not the founders, will you—l do not say dismiss —I will not my punish me, hut even breathe upon me the most subdued whisper of the faintest censure, fur en deavours--hearty, sincere, and honest as they have been —to avert a catastrophe so melancholy, to prevent an ever throw so humiliating and ignommious, by making those institutions faithfully and truly whet their founders had de clared they meant them to be. My Lords, those founders would not, and you cannot condemn me, except for an inordi nate crime—a very grievous immorality. They would not and you cannot climates me, except for au aggravated delin quency—a gross violation of moral integrity ; and I repeat Imps that my martian; in integrity, haveen kept up in sincerity, as they are eves now sustained by the conscious new of that juntas which gives strength irresistible to the feeblest, and amour impenetrable to the most unprotected, while it unlocks the steel and unnerves the arm, and daunts the heart of him where conscience with injustice is cor rupted. Bear with me then, my lords, if now at the last I say that cheerfally have I spurned delight, gladly and con fidently have I lived laborious days in the task (I use the words of one of the most eloquent of living men) of trying to save from the operations of time and the worst injuries of an interested malversetion some of those monumental which yet remain to us of the genuine glory of our slices tors—trophies which they won in a pious and innocent warfare, and left to commemorate triumphs unmingled with sorrow, unpolluted by blood, and gained over the worst enemies of the human race—ignorance and her r ro geny, vice. To labour in such a cause I feel indeed a privilege, to toil is such a task I count indeed an honour ; to succeed will in truth be • triumph unalloyed with any feeling of wrong, unsullied by any act of dishonour. untannehed by any word of deceit, untruth, or shame. Refuse me not, if you have any regard for the credit of our national justice; refuse me not, I say, that equity which is granted to the meanest criminal who elects to be tried by God and his consul ; remembering, in the words of a great writer, As the man who attacks a flourishing establish- ' merit writes with a halter round his neck, few will be found to attempt alterations, but men of more spirit than pru dence, of more sincerity than caution, of warm, eager, im petuous temper; so that if we are to wait for improvement till the cool, the calm, the discreet part of mankind begin, till church governors solicit, or ministers of state propose it, I will venture to pronounce that without His interposition, with whom nothing is impossible, we may remain as we are till the renovation of all things." My lords, I have done ; may your judgment be such as the universal acclaimer Eng ' land will at once ratify, and that still small voice which whispers in me unseen, tribunal of your own hearts never condemn, and I have no fear or misgiving ea to what that judgment a ill be. The Bishop of Rochester—We will consider what judg ment we will give. ROYAL SOUTH LONDON FLORICULTURAL SOCIETY.

I had availed myself of my letters of tweulerisation, and WWI iiii a simple priest. I never saw that woman before to-day. (The paper purporting to be a receipt for money that was paid to the image in the church. et St. Pietro the woman was here produced.) I knew that paper; tko tilling up is my writing. It was an institution coimeeted with au image In the church of Mt. Peter the Martyr, to raise money. I did not receive the mom y for the image ; but there was one specially charged to do so. Persons came to write their names, hut they did not enter Into the sacristy ; they stayed at the door. I never had intereoutse with that women in the sacristy or anywhere. I was never address e d by the mother of tier. woman when walking in peewee stun. I was never hetere the police respecting Any charge by the Pennines. 1 had a fr.enu at that time, the Duke of Leman,. When I cline out from the Dominican ems, ~t the brethren began to make war ; hence th. y vread dee Res against me. I made no account of this, as is my custom. But my friends, irritated at such proceedings, tried in leery way to subvert and destroy such charges. Q. Hid the duke go to the mike about it ? Sir A. E. Cockhurn objected to the question. Extunintitiun resumed—l was never before the police myself. My friends intereo-ed. I knew a tailor of the name of Ouramoni at Corfu. His wife lived with her nei ther nest dour to me. It was two houses. I never emu witted adultery with her. Ir, member one e venire I se se pawing before the house of the wife of Oarantnni's meth. r. Oaraniones wife was at the door, and called ow. She asked me to answer certain questions. She beget, to a. k these questions, when we were surprised by her h05t1.... The quest.ione were hut begun. I believe she meant to ask me if 1 hod beard any noise in her house on a former night. 1 believe she alluded to certain screams or elks that, ,:e facto, 1 had Mani. Garamoni came up and to gee to in veigh furiously i.L'll;ll , t his wife. I was at the dour of the house. It eimeared to me that he pus h ed me inside the house. I made a step within the door. I reproved him for his bed conduct towards his wife. Then I made way with my i hands arid got out. That was the only occasion on which I was in the house. I never met her n Any piece. Some days after I heard that Cierarnoni spoke against me through the city. I went to the secretary of the Lord High Commissiouer, Mr. Fraser, to complain of it. While I at Corfu I had two persons in my service, named Caraboni, a man and hie wife. They remained in my service all the time 1 remained at Corte and Zante. They did not go to Zante with me, but went there some weeks alter I had guno. I knew a Mr. Reynolds of Z into. I did ditty tit a chapel there ;he was one of my congregat'on I lived near him Ilia house did nut look into mine, but mine looked into his ; my house was higher than his, and I could see his house only from two of my upper windows. I think it would have been necessary to put the person out of my window to have been seen Iron Mr. li.lnulth's window. I never committed any indecency with Caraboni's wife. Mr. hi ?wilds, after en event that happened between us, did ionise to me relative to the persons in my service. I had atineebly and charitably given some slight reproof to Mr. Reynolds, because he at that time was in the habit of drinking a little too much in the evening, and being drunk. The Rest time he received my reeroef, I thought, with resignation ; the second time he became • little displeased, and begun to absent himself from the congregation ; and after a certain time he ceased to come to the chapel altogether. I wait to pay him a visit to reconcile him—to make friends with him again, and then he, assuming an altogether serious tone, began to reprove me about my servants, He said they had lace, Were coming to wee persena not of good morals. I answered that I should be satisfied if they behaved well while in my service. I begged him to tell me if he had anything to say against them at that time. Re mother that he spoke in favour of them, only he would have wished that I, according to his will, should have sent them away. He had never before that time said anything to me about sending them away. Caraboni lived in the house with his wife; they had &child. Carritioniei wife never slept with me, nor dined with me. I never told Mr. Reynolds when there were tern covers on the table that poor Albina was acing to dine with me. I never walked arm in arm with Caraboni's wife in the streets. I never went with her to hear the band play, nor did I ever go to hear it play alone. After Mr. Reynolds left I continued to preach in the chapel, and my congregation increased very much. I continued to do duty in the chapel six or seven months after Mr. Reynolds lett—so long as I remained in Zante. I coutinued to do duty io the chapel up to the last moment of remaining in Zante, and my congre gation increased up to the time of my leaving. (The mot: er of l'rincipe was here brought into court.) II never saw that woman before, and do not know her at all. Caraboni and his wife left my service when I left Zante. When I was at the college at Malta, there were two priests called Leonini and Zees:hare who had been converted from the Romish church. An accusation was made against them while I was iu London—and their faults, if they were guilty of any, were committed before I went there. The accuser was an Armenian prost to whom, according to my judgment, no faith should have been given. I was charged by the council of the Malta College in London to male in quiries relative to these charges, although I had advieell the secretary not to instite , e pre:meetings ,against these ac cused person*, In:cameo I knew very well the character of the accuser; and therefore I believe that no credit should be given to the accusation. I investigated the matter with Mr. Hadfield on my return to Males—the result to which I arrived was that there was not coy credit to be given to the charges alleged. Neither Mr. Hadfield nor any other person found that the charge* were proved. The iuquinc a of Mr. Hadfield and myself, I thought, were finished; but it came to my knowledge afterwards that the inquiries of Mr. Hadfield were continued secretly. I complained of this to him, and to the Vice.principal. The principal said he had been charged by the committee to thoroughly investigate it. I sent Zaccharis on a mission. Before I sent him 1 communicated to Mr. Hadfield that Signor Zaccharis was going into Sicily charged with a mis 'ion. 1 did not semi him away for the purpose of sti fl ing the charges against him. I was not implicated in the thanes against Leonini and Zaccharis. They were in Malta, and I was in London, at the time. Whilst at Malta I was not accused of acts of fornication nod immora lity. I never preached against the laws of chastity and morality. I believe iu the truths of the Christian religion. I have never beau an infidel. There never woe a time in which I did not believe in the truths of Christianity or th. divine mission of our Saviour. After my merriage mot my escape from the Castle of St. Angelo, I came to this country with my wife. In 1847 1 livedat N 0.3. St. James's-street, at the houses of a Miss Lambert. I never took liberties with the servant there. I lodged at 20, Northumberland-street, when I came to London with my wife. I lived afterwards in Shattesbury-terrace. I had a servant called Harriet Harris. I never conducted myself indecently towards her. I never attempted to seduce her. I had a servant called Jane, too, of that name. I recollect the Jane that followed Harriet Harris. I think she lived six months with me. I never behaved indecently to her, or attempted to seduce her. I remember Sarah, who Same from the House of Mercy, at Windsor, I never had criminal intercourse with her. I never attempted it in any way. I was in the prisons of the Inquisition on two occa sions. There was a proceeding in the Court of the Inquisi tion against me. It was the first time that I was there in 1641. I was questioned by the Inquisition every day with regard to my teachiag in the school, in the pulpit, and in the confessional. There was no other charge whatever brought against sue. The Inquisition is not a tribunal competent to deal with humeral crimes. I was never charged to my face ter knowledge at the Inquisition with immsral conduct. I never knew of any charge of immo rality having been prefeered against me at the Inquisition. I never made confession to the Inquisition of my having had carnal connexion with various women in Viterbo and elsewhere. (The judgment of the Court of the Inquisition was here put into the witness', hands, and he read it.] I have never hear , ' of these charges before. 1 never made any confession to the Inquisition, and throw myself on their mercy, as stated in that document. Patsy, at the first they might have asked me it I was content Id throw myself on their mercy, and, upon that euppasi:ion, I should have answered, yes; and teen the Chancellor of the Inquisition would have naturally written that I threw myself upon their mercy. I believe the first words inehat itneutneet may be admitted, but net the lust. I slid not ask not to tk. chastised, if I merited it. On the contrary, I should desire that severe troteedings shield he instituted against me in such way as justice demanded. " I shall receive with resignation whatever orders or elisposi tines mey emanate from the I nine have said that, hut I cannot admit the rest : "And even should there be wanting any tesson to peewee with greater rigour, !et my c sestession be eultieient to punish me In the manner in which the Holy Inquisition may think best." Thew words I diet not use. As to the that part of the doeumrsit, that would apply to the charge against nee toes hing. I never had any charge. submitted to me rte. 11l fl meting women or anythiug that sort as etated in a part of that &icemen*. _ _ By the Court—The only charge ogaitt.t me was Co to any teaching.

This reconciliation, according to the secret in ateucti• ris girt n, emsisted in that I Phuuld write and pub lish some hook in foveae of the Reinert catholic church. I must correct an observation I made, not haring sufficiently reflected when 1 made it. My incarceration at the Ingest sition took place in 1441. and after my being set at liberty, I remained a certain time in Ramie, and afterwards 1 went, as 1 said, into the country in the n. ighbuurhood of Rome.
