There's Papers for instanoe—my honourable friend if he will allow me to call him so—him as belongs to Smith's bookstall. Why he no more dares to be up to our Refreshmenting games, than he dares to jump atop of a locomotive with her steam at full pressure, and cut away upon her alone, driving himself, at mail speed. Papers, he'd get his head punched at every com partment, first second and third, the whole length of a train, if he was to ventur to imitate my demeanour. It's the same with the porters, the same with the guards, the same with the ticket cleriui, the same the whole way up to the secretary, traffic manager, or very chairman. There ain't a one among 'em on the nobly independent footing we are. Did you ever catch one of them, when you wanted any thing of him, making a system of surveying y ou w a n t ed a transparent medium composed of your head and body ? I should hope not. You should see our Bandolining-room at Mugby Junction. It's led to, by the door behind the counter which you'll notice usually stands ajar, and it's the room where Our Missis and our young ladies Bandolines their hair. You should see 'em at it, betwixt trains, Bandolining away, as if they was anointing themselves for the combat. When you're telegraphed, you should see their noses all a going up with scorn, as if it was a part of the working of the same Cooke and Wheat stone electrical machinery. You should bear Our Millais give the word " Here comes the Beast to be Fed !" and then you should see 'em indignantly skipping across the Line, from the lip to the Down, or Wicer Warsaw, and begin to pitch the stale pastry into the plates, and chuck the sawdust sangwiches under the glass covers, and get out the—ha ha ha !—the Sherry-0 my eye, my eye !—for your Refreshment. It's only in the Isle of the Brave and Land of the Free (by which of course I mean to say Britannia) that Refresh menting is so effective, so 'olerome, so consitutional, a check upon the public. There was a foreigner, _which having politely, with his hat off. beseeched our young ladies and Our Missis for " a leetel gloss Koff prandee," and having had the Line surveyed through him by all and no other acknowledgment, was a proceeding at last to help himself , as seems to be the custom in his own country, when Our Misses with her hair almost a coming un•Bandolined with rage, and her eyes omitting sparks, dew at him, cotched the decanter out of his hand, and said : " Put it down ! I won't allow that!" The foreigner turned pale, stepped back with his arms stretched out in front of him, his hands clasped, and his shoulders riz, and exclaimed :"A h ! Is it possi ble this ! That these distlaincous females and this ferocious old woman are placed here by the administration, not only to (=poison the voyagers, but to affront them ! Great Heaven ! How arrives it? The English people. Or is he then a slave? Or idiot ?" Another time, a men y wideawake American gent had tried the sawdust and spit it out, and had tried the Sherry and spit that out, and Si tried in vain to sustain exhausted natur upon Butter-Scotch, mid had been rather extm Bande• lined and Line-surveyed through, when as the bell was ringing and he paid Our Missis, he says, very loud and good-tempered : I tell Yew what 'tie, ma'arm. I la'af. Theer ! 1 Leaf. I Dew. I oughter ha' seen most things, for I hail from the Unlimited side of the Atlantic Ocean, and I halve travelled right slick over the Limited, head on through Jet-rusalemin and the East, and likeways France and Italy, Europe Ohl World, and am now upon the track to the Chief Europian ; but such an Institution as Yew, and Yewer young ladies, and Yewer fixin's solid and liquid, afore the glorious Tama!

THE MISERIES OF MARRIED ,SOLDIERS. —Although it is most expedient to prevent soldiers from marrying women of diarep'itable character , yet marriage is sanc tioned on far too small a scale ; and even those who are married with leave have to undergo very great privations, owing to insufficient barrack arrangements, and the fre quent changes of quarters. In one barrack iu the writer's neighbourhood there have been four regiments in less than three years ; and a regiment in the same district is said to have been removed live times in two years. Such instances are numerous. We will take the case of a steady soldier in either of those regiments, will assume that he is married, and probably has at least one child. His wife is respectable and industrious, but of what avail is her in dustry? She may strive to the utmort to obtain work, but what chance has she, a stranger, of com peting in the labour market with resident work women? If she even contrives to preserve her self-re spect, she is doomed to compulsory idleness, and a state or semi-starvation. After a few more months of this degrading life, the route comes ' the regiment marches, and the same kind of life has to be repeated at another station. At what personal sacrifice and privation must those poor people be able to pay the wife's journey to the new station? And for those unable to do so, what must be the fate ? The answer is a short one—the workhouse. The soldier eagerly looks forward to the expiration of his limited service, and carries to his own village a bitter sense that his best years have been utterly wasted. The expense incurred by the nation on account of the move- I went of troops in the United Kingdom is 60,000/. per annum ; of which at least half might well be saved, and the duty be performed more efficiently. Military Mal thueieus might very probably obje...t to part of the fore going statement, and say that " soldiers have no business to marry." To such the writer would answer that, from his own experience, extending over many years, those men who are respectably married invariably give thee least trouble, and that tho time is past when any men an be treated as outcasts from society.—Arucmillan's Magazine for December. TRAt:TARIANS ON THEIR TRAVELS. —The moat good-natured and simple of the French clergy do not always spare themselves a bit of quiet fun at the expense of the traveling Anglicans. There is an amusing anecdote of the Archbishop of —, who was entertaining a party of true tarians, among whom was *Scotch " bishop, travelling under the simple name of Doctor The archbishop asked one of the party, whom be had known before, whether Doctor was a relative of the Scotch "bishop" in question. The guest was disconcerted, and thought it better to throw himself on the mercy of his host. ' Mon seigneur," he said, " I will tell you the truth. This is the bishop,' but he wishes to maintain the strictest incognito. " Soge iranquille I" said the archbishop ; " I assure you that I will not treat him in any way as a bishop." And he kept his word. It was either on the same or another like occasion that, when the petite* effect came in after dinner, there being a large party of canons and other eccle siastics to meet the strangers, who of course helped them selves first, one of the canons, when asked by the arch bishop what liqueur he would take, replied, "Mend , Mon seigneur, je vale communieravec omMessienrs—sa eseocOar —ru Noah (Boma oatholis).

After the examination of Admiral Persano, before the commission of the Senate to-day, the accused was placed under arrest and confined in the Senate-house. Commander Arton leaves to-morrow for Paris, to replace, ad interim, the Chevalier di Nigra, Italian Ambassador at the French court, who has obtained leave of absence on account of a domestic affliction. The Minister of Finance has issued a circular settling the dealt/ of the payment of the half yearly interest on Italian Rentee due in January. The Italie of this evening says :—" News received this morning from Rome increases the apprehen sions which have prevailed that the clerical party will provoke disturbances in order to determine the Pope to adopt resolutions of an extreme cha racter." FLORENCE, Dec. 2. The Minister of War has appointed a commission to examine the questions of military recruitment, organization, and tactics. General Fleury has left for Venice. HUNGARY. PESTII, DEc. I. To-day, in the Lower House of the Hungarian Diet, the debate was commenced upon the address to the Emperor in reply to the Imperial Rescript. M. Tisza made a speech in support of the draught submitted by him to the house. Other speakers of the Left opposed any compromise [ with the government's policy of delay, which, they declared, placed in jeopardy the existence of the monarchy. Baron Eotvos spoke in favour of the address proposed by M. Deak. M. Honvath, in a speech which was very well received by the house, urged that in the interest of the Hungarian nation a compromise should be effected with the government. He also expressed the hope that a compromise would be facilitated by the knowledge that the monarchy and the reigning dynasty would find in a loyal Hungary their firmest support. At the conclusion of his speech M. Honvath was congratulated by many members of the Deak party. The debate will be resumed on Monday. The adoption of M. Deak's address is considered certain.

The Viceroy, in his speech at the opening of the Egyptian Chamber, reminded the delegates that his grandfather had put an end to the disorder which prevailed in Egypt, restored public security, and founded institutions which assure to the country a prosperous future. "My father," he added, " continued the work which had thus been begun, aiming at the creation of an order of things in harmony with the state of modern society. Since my accession the constant object of my thoughts has been the development of public prosperity. I often thought of establishing a representative council to consider all important questions of an exclusively internal character. Such an institution possesses great advantages, con stituting a safeguard and a protection of all interests. I have great satisfaction in now open ing this council, and thank Providence for having permitted me to perform so solemn an act. I con fide in your wisdom and in your patriotic senti ments. ➢lay God assist our efforts. In Him let us place our trust." CROATIA. AGRAM, DEC. i.

These Saturday musical entertainments generally present some feature of *sail novelty or intereet, in addi tion to the invariable excellence in the orchestral per formanoe of recognised classical works. Three week' sines we spoke of the production here of some of the charming incidental music with which Franz Schubert enriolied the dull German drama of Bommunde, and on Saturday last Mr. Mane, the active conductor and director of these con certs, brought forward two more interesting novelties by the same composer—the versatility and produstiveness of whoa, genius have only been fully recognised within the lad few years. Until recently Schubert was only known to the general musical publics as a composer of " Lieder ;" and of the four or five hundred songs which he left only some dozen or so were widely popular, although very many more are of equal, or nearly equal, merit. Numerous, however, as are these vocal pieces of Schubert, his instrumental works are in themselves of such extent and importance as to place him, not only in point of imaginative genius, but also in fertility, among those phenomena of art history who have achieved, in a brief span of mortal life, results which would seem to demand a career of twice the length for their fulfilment.

THE MEDITERRANEAN. Our Malta correspondent, writing on the 26th November, says :—" Her Majesty's despatch vessel Psyche, 2, Lieut.-Commander Sir F. Blackwood, Bart., having been admitted to pratique on Saturday last, leaves today for Marseilles, conveying Captain W. It. Mends, C. 8., the Admiralty director of transports, who returns to England from Egypt. After disembarking Captain Mends at Mar seilles the Psyche will remain at that port, at the disposal of Sir Henry Storks, Governor of Malta, who is expected at Marseilles on the 10th proximo. The rigour of the quarantine measures adopted some time ago by the local government is being greatly relaxed, owing to the disap pearance of the cholera from the towns visited by it. The quarantine on arrivals from British porta, except London and Liverpool, and from Marseilles, was abolished a week or two ago, and now the government has also re moved the quarantine on arrivals from Leghorn and Genoa, and reduced that on vessels arriving from other ports on the Italian continent to five days. The full term (21 days) of the quarantine imposed on arrivals from Sicily is still in force, as the cholera in that island does not yet show any sign of abatement. Sir Victor Houlton, K.C.NLG., chief secretary to this government, returned to Malta on Friday night from Marseilles, in the Penin sular and Oriental Company's packet China. Colonel G. It Kennedy, commanding the Royal tArtillery Brigade in this island, and Colonel J. Gubbins, deputy adjutant general, also returned to Malta by the same packet, from their summer leave of absence." WOOLWICH, DEC. 2._ The Waterwitch hydraulic steam vessel and the Viper, double screw gunboat, are now in a forward state of completion, and are ordered to be got ready for commis sion with all despatch.

Madam,—We are charged to present you with the medal struck in honour of the great man whose name you bear, at the desire of upwards of 40,000 French citi zens, who wish to manifest their sympathy for the American Union by a tribute of respect to the memory of one at its purest and most iihmbiewi representathee. If France possessed the liberties that America enjoys it is I not by thousands but by millions that the admirers of Lin• coin would be counted.* Pray, accept Madame, the homage of our profound respect, The members of the committee:—Albert,aneien membre du geevernement provisoire ; Arego (Etienne), ancien re prieentaat du people ; Sarni (J.), profeeseur i l'Acadrimie de Geneve; Blanc (Louis), ancien membre du gouvisneinemt provhlarre ; Chants homme de ',titer; elhattffoor- Keetner (Victor), ancien representant du people; Delord (Taxile), reclacteur de l'Avenir National; Despois (Eugene), prefesseur libre ; Greppo, ancien representant du people ; Hugo (Victor), ancien representant du people ; Joigneaux (Pierre), ancien representant du people ; Kneip (Louis), ouvrier en pianos ; Laurent-Pichat (L.), homme de lettree ; Littre, membre de Phistitut ; Mangin (Victor), redacteur en chef du Phare de /a Loire; Michelet (J.), membre de l'lnstitat ; Pelletsn (Eugene), depute de la Seine ; Qulnet (Edgar), ancien representant du people ; Schieicher (Victor), ancien sons-secretaire d'etat au minister° de Is marine, ancien representant ; Thomas (A), ancien directeur du National. In presenting the above letter and medal, M. Albert (the member of the provisional government of 1848), addressed Mr. Bigelow as follows : We thank you, air, for having taken upon yourself to transmit to Mrs. Lincoln the gold medal which French citizens desire to present to her. This medal is a homage rendered to the illustrious President for whom she mourns, a testimony of admiration for the man who im mortalised himself in the service of the great republic of the United States, and a thank offering due to him from all defenders of liberal and democratic ideas throughout the world. We are happy to think, sir, that Mrs. Lincoln will receive this medal from your hand, and we beg you to accept the expression of our warm sympathy for the great nation which you have the honour to represent. Mr. Bigelow warmly thanked the committee for their sympathy with the American republic. Father Hyacinthe, the Carmelite monk, is a candidate for the very chair in the Academie Franeaise which was once occupied by Voltaire, and is now vacant by the decease of Baron de Barante, the author of " Lea Duca de Bourgogne." Among his competitors are Theophile Gautier, Jules Janin (who ought to have been elected long ago), Henri Martin, Victor Sardou, the successful dramatist, and M. Bouilhet, whose new piece was played before the court at Compii3gno last week. Apropos of M. de Barante, the biographical notices of him contain a good anecdote. After the revolution of 1830 he was sent as ambassador to the court of St. Peter's burg. The Czar, who detested Louis Philippe and the principles he represented, was anxious to say something civil to M. de Barante which should at the same time be sarcastic towards his sovereign. He happily accomplished his object by saying, when M. do Baranto presented his credentials, " I am happy to receive the representative of the Dukes of Burgundy"—an allusion to the late academician's principal title to literary fame. The news that Admiral Persano, after being ca_ amined by the committee of the Italian Senate, was ordered under arrest, provokes the following observations from the Patric : Without wishing to prejudge the grave and lamentable trial now pending, we must say that putting together all the accounts we have seen of the battle of Lissa, and after reading a recent article in the Revue des Druz Mondo, which is very severe upon Admiral Persano, we have come to the conclusion that he was incapable and unlucky, but not a traitor. Admiral Persano will scarcely thank the French semi-official journal for volunteering such an apology. ' [lt is known that the prefects throughout France were instructed to throw every difficulty in the way of the sub scription, short of absolutely interdicting it, which would have been odious.] GORDON RAMSAY AGAlN.—Quite a scene was created in our office yesterday by the notorious Gordon Ramsay, who, in a state of inebriation, sought to bring us to account for opinions which, from time to time, we have found it necessary to express in reference to his share in " the hellish saturnalia of Martial Law." He first de manded a copy of the Jon; nal of a back date, and was told that there was not one to be had ; he thereupon became violent both in manner and speech, and used language both offensive and indecent to Mr. Robert Jordon, who happened to be the party addressed. He was ordered out of the place, but he positively refused to go and shortly after assaulted Mr. Jordon, who, in return, struck him with a ruler. We are afraid the hero of llorant Bay got the worst of it. With consi derable difficulty he was removed to some plaoe in the neighbourhood, whence he was conducted to the railway terminus, and despatched to Spanish Town. He swears to murder some one in our office. It would, perhaps, not be the first murder that he has committed, and it is not improbable that he will be haunted by the blood upon his hands until he does commit himself again, and then meets his just retribution. No wonder he talks lightly of mur dering, seeing that he can only count upon a jury with fellow-feeling enough to ensure his acquittal.—Morsing Journal (Kingston, Jamaica), Nov. 10. THE WEST INDIA STEAMER SEINE.—MORE YELLOW FEVER. Our Southampton correspondent, writing on Saturday, says :—" The Seine arrived here this morning with the West Indian, Mexican, New Zealand, and Australian mails. She left St. Thomas late, having been kept waiting there for the intercolouial steamers. She was delayed also on her pas. sage home by continual and strong head winds. The yellow fever broke out on board the Seine at St. Thomas on the 9th ult., immediately after which she left the harbour, and remained outside until the 14th, when she took her depar ture for England. In consequence of this precaution only two persons belonging to the Seine died. When she ar rived here eight persons who had been ill were recovering. No passenger or officer had been attacked. The Seine wa telegraphed off Hurst at about half-past eight o'clock this morning, and she arrived at her moorings at half-past 10. In consequence of her foul bill of health and the invalids on board she was ordered to hoist the yellow flag, and to await the orders of the Privy Council. She was guarded by her Majesty's gunboat Pheasant. The Seine's nails, consisting of about 100 bags and boxes, were transhipped on board a steam tug, out in the river, and after the mails had been exposed for half an hour to the poisonous fumes arising from nitric acid being placed in contact with pieces of copper metal, they were landed, and despatched to London by special train. The specie was transhipped and fumigated in the same manner at a later period of the day." " Southampton, Sunday.—The Seine left here for the Motberbank to perform quarantine at daylight to-day. She was guarded down the river by her Majesty's gunboat Pheasant." It is expected that Mr. John Stuart Mill will deliver his inaugural address as Lord Rector of the versity of St. Andrew's en the Ist of Feb. nest. BIRMINGHAM AND MIDLAND COUNTIES AGPJCU&TUBAL^ BBOW BERMINGMAII, SATURDAY Evirinno. The " private view " of this exhibition of " fat settle, sheep, roots, corn, and implements," takes place on Monday. That announcement, as copied from the printed circular, sets forth what this show usually is, but this i l i tut ,.... to shorn of half of l the Pri tinal vy vy not stracti M% contained therein ; and in the central bay sheep and poultry take the oleos of the bovine breeds. The council hare done their best to meet the difficulty im posed upon them, somewhat irrational though it be, and, the cattle apart, the exhibition features or considerable wisest to the "fancyin agricultural pur suits. The classes for sheep are admirably filled, bat the Shropshire* are much the strongest as a clams, and are without exception good. So far as relate* to She Downs and Leicester' which have heretofore been sent to this exhibition, the animals in the hall today show no improvement. In the class for fat withers (Leicester') the first and second prizes were awarded to Mr. G. S. Fol jambe, of Osberton-hall, Notts; the third lirize was given to Mr. George Wahnsley, of Eudston, Bridlington. For long-woolled fat sheep, other than Leicesters, the first and third prizes were awarded to Mr. John Wignson, of Bickerton-court, Herefordshire ; the second to Mr. West, of Green Hill Farm, Oxfordshire. In class 29, for South and other Down sheep, the first prize was awarded to the Karl of Radnor, the second to Lord Sondes, and the third to Lord Walsingham. In clans 30, for Down sheep ex ceeding twenty-two month, old, the first prize was ob tained by Lord Walaingham ; the assn d by the Earl of Radnor. The prize (211.), given by Mr. Edwin Yates, the ex-mayor of Birminsham, for the best pen of fine fat wethen (Shropshire), was awarded to Mr. Henry Smith, of Sutton Maddock, near ShiffnaL The first prize fora pen of three fat withers (Shropshire) was awarded to Mr. Thomas Nock, of Sutton Maddock ; the second to Mr. May, of Elford-park, Taniworth ; the third to Lord Willoughby de Broke. The first prize for fat withers exceeding 22 months old was awarded to Mr. Joseph Black, Brewood, Sta ff ordshire, who also obtained Messrs. Mapplebeck and Lowe's prize of five snipes. In class 35, the first prize forOxfordshire Downs was given to the Duke of Marlborough ; the second to Mr. Nathaniel Stags., Adderbury. In clans 36, the cross-bred sheep. the first prize was awarded to Mr. Overham, of Burnham Market ; the second to Mr. Stilgoe, of Adderisnry.

For Southdown ewes the first prize was awarded to Lord Sondes ; the second to the Duke of Marlborough ; and for Shropshire ewes, the first prize to Mr. Beach, of the Hatton. near Dudley - the second to Mr. Wilkes, of Long Norto n , near Shiffnall. Mr. Davenport Bromley's prize of ten guineas for the best pen of long-woolled sheep was awarded to Mr. John Wigmore, of Bickerton-court, Herefordshire. Mr. Newdegate's cup, value ten guineas, for the best pen of Shropshire' was awarded to Mr. Thomas Nock, of Sutton Maddock, who obtained the first prize in class 32, and to whom also was awarded the Linen drapers' prize of fifteen guineas. The Earl of Radnor, the first prize holder in class 29 (fat wethers), obtained the second prize of ten guineas offered by the Birmingham linendrapers. The show of pigs is below the average ; of poultry there is the usual magnificent display. The show of roots is less attractive than in former years, but is good for the season. The private view of the dog show takes place on Monday. This exhibition is larger than ever it has been. There is a fine entry of spoiling dogs and " bulls." Italian greyhounds and Dlenheims stand pre eminent. All the arrangements at Curzon-hall are perfect. THE FENIAN MOVEMENT. APPREHINSION OP BEAD-CENTRE STEPHENS' SECRET.%RY. The government has for a considerable time past been in possession of information with regard to some of the leading Yemeni, and what wero regarded by them as the proper steps to be taken under the circumstances have been adopted. Detectives in the employ of the Irish autho rities have been looking about London, and yesterday (Sa turday), says the Sunday /Jun tie, an important capture was made in the Strand. About half-past I o'clock Head Con stable Meagher, of the Irish constabulary, was patrolling the Strand in company of Inspector Williamson, of Scot land-yard, when, on passing Savoy-st re et, they saw the secretary of the head-centre of the Irish rebellion, Stephen J. Meany, and immediately took him into custody under a warrant issued fur his apprehension by the Lord-Liente nant of Ireland. The warrant charges him with the crime of treason, in having conspired, with divers other persons, to levy war against her Majesty the queen. He was a once conveyed to How-strett an& locked up. Sir Thomas Henry, the chief magistrate, was communicated with, and, having consulted the acts of parliament bearing on the subject, arrived at the opinion that there was no necessity to bring the prisoner before an English magistrate, but that the Irish officer, armed with the warrant, could at once convey him to Dub lin. In the evening Head-constable Meagher removed the prisoner in a cab from Low-street to the North Western station at Euston-square, to route for Holyhead and Dub in which latter place the prisoner will be examined on the charge on Monday morning. When apprehended the prisoner did not deny the charge. Several documents of an important nature in connection with the Fenian movement were forted on Meany's person. The Scotland yard detectives feel confident that Stephens is not far from London. We regret to learn that accounts have reached the authorities of bud feeling on the part of the large Irish population in Liverpool and Glasgow in con nection with the Fenian movement. it is riot improbable that two infantry regiments from Aldershot will be moved to these localities in the course of the week. Salookri News of Saturday says:—" Three Fenian arrests were made on Friday in Dublin, one being ap parently of some importance. Some additional arrests are reported from Cork and Limerick, but, with these ex ceptions, there are no items of Fenian intelligence to-day. The alarm on the subject seems to have somewhat sub sided, owing, no doubt, to the very ample precautionary measures which have Leen taken by the authorities. The - Cork journals announce that on Monday rie:.t a meeting of the deputy-lieutenants and magistrate.* of the county will be held on the summons of Lord lennoy, lieutenant of the county, fur the purpose of €Olllllll6l ing what steps should be taken for the preservation of the peace in Cork. It will be remembered that a similar meeting was held in Cork last autumn, which was also cuirveried by Lord Fennoy, and that it was then the first authoritative declaration of the existenee of 1111 organised treasonable conspiracy was made. That meeting was quickly followed by the sup prresion of the Irish People, and the au-rest or the principal members of its staff. We hope the present meeting will be followed by loyal demonstration in our chief cities." At Cork on Saturday a considerable number of Irish Ame ricans were landing, and scattering through the country. The military and the police forces are receiving augmenta tion. Further arrests have been made in adjoining corm. ties. Limerick is proclaimed. 14,00 percussion cape have been seized on Dundalk quays, brought by a steamer in a box from Liverpool, labelled "hardware." Fresh arrests Lave also been n u de in Dublin, and in Limerick city and Bruff. We learn by telegraph that eighteen emigrants from America were arrested on board the Liverpool steamer Electric, at Belfast, on Saturday, but were discharged by the resident magistrate, nothing treasonable being found upon them. THE BISHOP OF LONDON'S CHARGE. —The Bishop of London's quadrennial charge to his clergy has just been issued. The present aspect of ritualism is very copiously dealt with. His lordship says that " matters cannot re main much longer as they are," and points to legislation as th4best means of settling the questions at issue. "It is competent to the church (says the bishop) to alter its ritual o ifi r ain to b e igu xp o lain u. ;,, an s yt o h d in i t in mat ita ters ndes oonce of rai w r :brie whichdetail of our services but which do not touch the doctrine, he sees no difficulty in legislation so as to define more pre cisely those two clauses in the Act of Uniformity respecting the discretionary powers of bishops "to take order for the settlement of doubts, and respecting the ornaments of the church and the ministers thereof," the ambiguity of which has led to so much difficulty and confusion in the late ritualistic dissensions : and his lord ship adds, " my opinion is clear that though legislation could not settle all difficulties, yet without an authorita tive explanation of these clauses, passed by parliament and accepted by convocation, we shall always be liable to misunderstandings dangerous to the church's peace." The bishop, of course, treats upon a great variety of other subjects, such as-1. The final judgment of the Privy Council upon " Essays and Reviews," land its effects as regards the doctrines of "Inspire , tion," " Imputed Righteousness," and " Eternal Punishment ; ! 2. The yearning of hearts in the church more than formerly for union with other Christian bodies ; ;i. The necessity of earnestness on the part of the clergy in their work amongst the poor, and in guiding and fortifying the rising generation of the middle classes against the peculiar and subtle temptations and infidelity which now abound ; 4. The work accomplished during the 1 last three years by his lordship's " fund for building churches, schools, ea."; ii. The value of Sunday-school in struction and proper organisation and training of the teachers ; and finally, " the Sisters of Mercy in the church of England," whose labours he greatly praises, and whose greater usefulness will be manifested when they drop the peculiarities to which maoy of " them excellent women now adhere somewhat tenaciously." As the bishop's health prevented the oral delivery of the charge, his lord ship has sent copies to each of his clergy. RITUALISM IN THE CHURCH. —The following protest is being circulated in the diocese of London ; it has already received numerous signatures :—" We, the under signed, being clergymen in the diocese of London, desire to make our public and emphatic protest against the intro duction, under cover of an elaborate ritualinn ' of some of the fundamental and most pernicious errors of the church of Rome into the protestant and reformed church of this realm.
