It was in the veer 1773 that Mr. Burke, speaking on the Dissenter?

I wish to ms the established church of Faglehd great and powerful. I wish to see her foundatioes laid low and deep, that th e nay crush the great powers of rebel- lions darkness: I would have her bead raised up to that heaven to whieh she melded+ us.

Nothing boa driven people more into that house of seduction than the mutual hatred of Christian congregation'. The hon. gentleman would have us fight this confederacy of the powers of darkness with the rink arm of the thumb of Enetaad—wonld ham us fight not only against infidelity. but fight, at the setae time, with all other denominations except our owe. In the moment we make a front against the common enemy we have to combat with all those who are the natural friends of our cause. Strong as we me we are not equal to this.

Dr 06•14 The CHAIRMAN, in proposing • Prosperity to the Api culture] Benevolent Inetitatioo," observed that it was sufficient for him to state that the object s of the society was to provide pensions to bona Ilde farmers, their widows and unmarried orphan daughters, and to maintain and educate the orphan childree of farmers, to Mitre the toast meeting with the reception which such an institution most at all times commend. Speaking as he did to practical farmers, to men who had passed the greater part of their lives in the pursuit of agri culture, it would seem almost presumptuous as it would be untmerary for him to dilate at any great length upon the necessity which existed for an institution of this cha racter, and he could only express his surprise that in a country so eminently agricultural as Great Britain an institution for the relief of farmers in distress should not have been established till the year 1880. It was also • matter of astonishment that the establishment of such an institution was mainly owing to the exertions of a gentleman who however seams he bad shown himself in the cause of agriculture had spent the earlier portion of his life in the pursuit of commerce. (Hear, hear.) He need hardly remind his hearers of the many vicissitudes which this branch of science, for • science it had become, was liable to. He need hardly tell them of the losses which might come suddenly upon the best farmer, and reduce him from comparative affluence to comparative poverty. Seasons of unparalleled severity might come upon them when they were least reedy end fitted to receive them. They might buy the most sepia. sive instruments, they might procure the moat highly-bred oarthonea, and they might have their work does by steam, but all the most approved appliances within their reach would not avail at all times and in all seasons. Therefore he said that such an institution as the present must be a blessing to the whole agricultural community. And when he spoke of the agricultural community of this country, be could not forget that the agricultural class had been at all times one of the most respectable dames in this great empire, and one of the strongest and firmest links in the chain of society, of which this country was so remarkable a specimen. If it were possible that they could blot out the agricultural class the empire would sink into nothiegnees, and be believed there were few who would deny that this society was a Nosing to the country. (Hear, hear.) To the few who might think that there was no nexesity for sash a society he need only point to the fact that there were no less than sixty epplr cants for psestras at the January election this year. Since the histitatioa was founded, in 1860, they had had upwards of 2,000 subscribers upon their list, awl the society pos. seemed at this time an amount of 2,000/. in consols and 3,0001. in the Three per Cents., makiug in all a fund of 5,0001.

AND MADAME GOLDSCHMIDTS ORATORIO PERFORMANCIOL The second of the series of performances of sacred music, given by Mr. and Madame Goldschmidt for cha ritable purposes, took place at Exeter-hall last night. It was in aid of the funds of the Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Chest at Brompton—an institution, if we remember rightly, which has already derived great benefit from Madams Goldschmidt's benevolent exer tion. The performance of last evening consisted of The Creation, the most beautiful, if not the grandest of Oratorios ; a work whose very beauty has been disadvan tageous to it in the estimation of some modern critics, who opine that, because it is simple, melodious, and easily understood—because it is beautiful, in short, it cannot be sublime. And indeed, if, as Burke has it, obscurity is an element of the sublime, these critics may probably be in the right ; for no great musical work that we have ever heard is so uniformly clear and comprehensive as The Creation. But believing, as we do, that the works of nature may create ideas of power and gran deur when viewed under the brightest sunshine as when shrouded in clouds and darkness, we cannot feel that the sunshine, of which Haydn's masterpiece is fuller than any other musical work in existence, derogates in the least from its sublimity. It is a hymn to the goodness se well as the power of the Great Creator ; and it is in this, as it seems tons, that its exquisite and divine beauty consists. It was worthily performed on this occasion. Mr. and Madame Goldschmidt did all that could be prompted by respect for the genius of the great master. They provided a complete and excellent instrumental or chestra and a powerful chorus ; the solo performers, in addition to Madame Goldschmidt, were Mr. Sims Beeves and Signor BeUetti ; and the performance was conducted by Mr. Goldschmidt with great care and ability. Madame Goldschmidt sang magnificently. We have not for years beard her superb voice to so much advantage. It betrayed no sign of fatigue or over-exertion ; on the contrary, it was fresh, clear, and flexible ; rising easily to the highest regions of the scale, and demanding no effort in the execution of the most florid divisions which abound in the two great airs, " With verdure clad," and "On mighty pens;" and sustaining the fine holding note at the beginning of " The marvellous work," with a body of tone not to be surpassed in richness. As to her greatness of style and beauty of expression, these are quali ties over which time has no power, and are at this day remarkable as ever. We need scarcely add that she was re ceived with enthusiastic applause. Mr. Sims Reeves nag as he usually does in this oratorio, that is, very finely, though we have heard his voice in better order. In his principal air, " With native worth and honour clad," he pro duced a great effect, and was applauded accordingly. Bel lettes performance, from beginning to end, was perfect in voice, style, and expression. Though a foreigner, this accomplished artist, in English oratorio singing, has no superior. • • • The hall was crowded to excess in every part, and the heat was suffocating. Cannot something be done by way of improving the ventilation'' The third of these fine performances, on Wednesday next, is to consist of Elijah, and is to be for the benefit of the Royal Society of Musicians and the Royal Society of Female Musicians ; two excellent institutions, and well deserving of support.

The folielrieg the text of M. Viennet's letter : Parbalieg.2l, 1862. g ifareehal.—You time to recognise your nnu[essie] seitkalp, sad this last summons is accompanied by a decree which pretends to dissolve the Suprema Council of the ancient and accepted Sootch rite. I declare to you that I will not comply with your demand, and that I regard your decree as null and void. The imperial decree which nominated you Grand Master of the Grand Orient of France-- that is to say, of a masonic rite which exists only since 1772—has not subjected to you the ancient masonry which dates from 1723. Yon are not, in • word, as you pretend to be, the Graod Master of the Masonic Order in France, and you have no power to exer cise with regard to the Supreme Council over which I have the honour to preside : the independence of the lodges sub ject to me has been openly tolerated even subsequently to the decree on which )oii base your pretensions without having the right to do so. The Emperor alone bas the power to dispose of us. If his Majesty think proper to dissolve us, I will submit withou • protesting ; but as no law obliges ye to lie Masons in spite of ourselves, I, for ens, will take leave to withdraw from y ou r contra—ll am not the leas, of your dignity, Monsieur In Marimba', the very humble and very obedieut servant.
