EA lea Ammo" 2 L 711•• LONDON, PirEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14. Tniu is quite a race for the proceeds of the Thanksgiving Collection to be made in the churches of this Metropolis to-morrow. First and foremost in the field is the Pastoral Aid Society; it claims the oblations of that day because of the additional religious assistance it gave the afflicted daring the late plague, to the exhaustion of its ordi nary income. This society is, however, a low church bodily ; it offends high church prejudices in two essential particulars; it is not episcopally end it administers religious instruction at I . l7 lll lms e ti of lay teachers, who are not, of course, blessed with Apostolical succession ; hence its name is never men tioned by ecclesiastics of the opposite faction ; its very existence is ignored in their churches ; they will neither preach nor collect for its funds. The very notion, then, of the Pastoral Aid Society monopolising or getting any considerable portion of Thursday's collection is enough to create a clerical riot in the diocese of London; and, as our ecclesiastical peace is confided to thesafe keeping of the astute Dr. BLOMFIELD, that right reverend prelate turn issued a Pastoral letter in favour of another society; and strange to say, it is not even a Church society Here is a change ! Talk of radicalism, and Welker vile inns, after this! A Bishop promoting a sudsy not episcopally administered; reign funds /se an institution not even in the hands of the clergy; ex citing his "dear and reverend brethren" to make over church collections to a body whence dissent and dissenters are not barred and bolted ; and, worse than all, poritivelyadvocating its claims on the grounds of its objects being in accordance with the principles " Political Economy!" Tempera mutants', et nos issitansw is iths. Blessed be time and its influences at " Casein JAMES, by Providence, Divine Lord Bishop of London I" Political economy has at lam received the Episcopal Benediction. Dr. WHATELY may now hold up his bead. A skilful man is Dr. Btomrier.o ; wise and saga chum in this world's ways ; " of earth, earthy,' he at once recognised a great point of attraction that the Pastoral Aid Society possessed for the charitable ; in an instant he saw, that it bad played cut the best cord; so, not forgetting the game of his youth, he has overtrumped it. Lord ABEL/EYE name is to the cha ritable in this metropolis "a tower of strength;" it will draw hundreds of pounds when properly adver tised in the newspapers, just as Hrou hilinthifs will attract thousands of persons to Exeter Hall when duly placarded in the streets. Now the Pastoral Aid Society is one of Lord ASHLEY'S pet societies; he is its pnmate, its bench of bishops, its alPhst sod omega; through its iastrnmentality he exercises an snout of ecclesiastical patrcaage such on Freaks might Nigh hr, and Load Chan ellen Gary. To find this society a 'claimant lbw Ilseeney's oblations was than a mountain in our Dlesseee'e path. More it any ordinary bishop, any =elate, would have quailed and despaired ; he have seen in it a low church triumph, without the peesibility of its beipg averted. Not BO ear Shep herd; crook in hand he parries the advance, he tares aside the approaching victory of Evangelioanism ; We is, bodily, imperially, on Lord Assize , Dr. BLow now sa6 the noble lord up,to be guilty of an Trilbies), against himself. For Lord ASULST, sa all the world knows, has another pet society, and this is " 'l'hs Society for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Classes r and up it is placed by Dr. Btoxriximo incom petition with the low church claims of the Pastoral Aid Society—Lord Ammar against Lord Asian—Lord ASHLEY and a Church charity, against Lord ASHLEY and a general charity. Who, after this, will deny that Bishop BLoarisua is a skilful man? Moat characteristic, too, is the Pastoral Letter in which the high-church bishop overtrumps the low church society. Take a passage : we shall be chargeable with great folly and want of fore sight as poUtical econosisia, sad guilty, I verily believe, et I great sinfulness as a Christitui people, if we neglect to profit by the fleetly bought experience of the paht, sad to take prompt and energetic measures for improving the 'outdid= of the labouring daises, by removing the worst, at least, of those evils, which at once render them an as posy to disease and death, ad plan them at a hopeless diraaaa from the chorales Wailing sad ministry. I emslated L lt my &armor letter, that pima iiaseeresd misesysoi =a. are far the meet part inassessible to the teethes sad maw latices of the gospel. Not the shadow of a doubt, not a scintilla of seepticism has our Bishop on the argument arising eat of the political economy view of the question ; on it he speaks decisively, authoritatively, yes, even dereibeally ; but an the duty of a Christian poop* he, prelate of the church though he be, with caution, with reeerve, even with !mita he " believes," be is not quite certain. He teals that'be is impregnable as a political economist; be tears that he may be tripped up OS a divine. Yet this is the man who, some few years ago, took upon himself to shut the gates of Heaven against dissenters ! l'be times certainly are changing, and very quickly too. For now we have tho metropolitan bishop connecting Political Economy with Christianity, and appealing with certainty to the pockets of churchmen on the former ground, with hesitation on the latter. It is to be hoped that Dr. BLOYFIELD, having now acted on the Paulician recommendation, " proved all things, will hold fast by that which is good." Cautious and politic End stealthy is, however, the episcopal recommendation of this non-church society; be ism not put it inward plainly or positively ; be edemas it alternatively, or, as Corporal Trim would =se:lathe flank. The passage is a fine specimen of 1 dexterity : I would not be understood to prescribe the channel through which the collections should be so applied ; but I would suggest that where the funds so raised ere meaner dent for carrying out a local scheme for that purpose, they may be safely intrusted to " The Society for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Classes," without fear of misap plication or waste. Much good has been already effected by that society, is setting en example of what may be dose towards providing the poor with decent and commodious habitations, by an outlay which will ultimately . be repaid with interest, both In a social and a pecuniary point of view. Its a remarkable and encouraging fact that is the dwellings and lodging houses belonging to the society them was not nee ease of cholera, and two only of diarrhoea, which speedily yielded to medical treatment. He would not for the world, not even for the pri macy itself, dictate to his clergy ; that is not his ha bit; but he recommends, he entreats, and (moat powerful of all arguments, he thinks, to ecclesiastics) be points out the pecuniary profits of turning over the ssllections to this society. Anything. the wicked will say, to baulk the claims of the Pastoral Aid Society. The Pastoral Letter, besides stamping episcopal salt ..... mit/ on political economy, places on record the belief in the sufficiency of human interven e angst such plagues as the cholera : BWesgerem the unvarying tenor of the reports undo by We eml inspectors, and of other persons who have weedsul tbe peeress of that fatal disease, I do not hesitate to dashes my belief that by far the greater number of those whielmws Sallee victims to the pestilence minht, ander God's biesslog, have been saved from death, had timely and *Hee • meontrea been taken for cleansing and ventilating their dwdbge, preventing their overcrowded state, and draining tlas 4111111116 mad alleys in which they are situate. _ Here the natural strong sense of Dr. BLOMFIELD got the.mastery over his professional bias in favour at sue supernatural. But what will his friends, who shout out blasphemy" ,to any layman who has pro pounded this view say to their diocesan, bigotry only knows. There ts, notwithstanding a long life of ecclesiastical prejudice a strong dash of hu manity in Bishop BLOMYIELD yet, which is almost productive of melancholy. Ahl what a man he might have been, had the church and its wealth not wrecked his fine mind ! Another and a better CHAD WICK. These societies are tot, however, the only competi tors for Thursday's collections. Divers are the small charities that pray for a portion ; hospitals, whose funds are exhausted; cholera homes, whose funds are yet to be raised ; societies, whose orphan infante are still unborn, are all scampering after Lord ASHLEY'S greater institutions. Between such clamorous and ravenous claimants, it is—Heaven be praised !—not our duty to de cide ; there is, doubtless, much good: to be done by them all. Bat we can hardly think that these centralised bodies, excellent as their objects and designs may be, ought, on inch an occasion as to-morrow presents, to supersede altogether local claims and parochial wants. In every parish and ecclesiastical district, there are necessities to be relieved, large enough to exhaust all that will be given to-morrow ; and the best of all charitable objects on so solemn a Thanksgiving will be one which begins nearer home than Exeter-hall. Toe Board of Health, we are gratified to hear, is deliberating on a meteors of unitary regulation having special reference to the graveyards of the me tropolis. It is specifimlly, as well as generally, the duty of the commissioners to submit to parliament • bill upon th , s important subject, for parliament spe cially committed to the board the task of reporting upon this as upon other branches of sanitary regula tion. The inquiries which have been instituted with a view to this measure leave little room for doubt as to what the measure ought to be. Restriction must be put upon intramural intermentsof whatevercharacter. The exhalations from the vaults of our churches are quite as pestilential and injurious to health as the vapours of the hemmed-in burial-grounds. And it would be of no avail to close the grounds in which the dead have been accumulated, unless stringent preventive measures were also taken against a recurrence of the evils of which there has been so much reason to com plain. Indeed the only good argument which has been urged against the sanitary measures reoentlyenforced by the Board of Health has been that they have driven fumes from the older churchyards to others in Reich bourhoods almost equally crowded, and only by a few degrees less pestilential and oboe:ions. Thus, during the prevalence of cholera, the churchyard of St. Mary, Newington, was closed ; but the numbers who died front amongst the 80,000 inhabitants of that enormous parish, were mostly carried for interment to the dis trict church of St. Peter, Walwortb, around which a population has arisen quite as dense as that around the mother church. The Board of Health, therefore, would not be doing its duty did it not propose mat stringent measures for regulating interments in the new grounds as well as for enforcing the closing of those which are already ascertained - to be filled to overflowing with the mouldering remains of perish able humanity. The interment of the dead has, of late years, be. a matter of speculation by public companies. It will be the duty of the Board of Health to guard spinet the possible abuse of the powers which - honest bas committed to thou who have engaged in these commercial ventures. Under ordinary circum stances, the force of competition would be the best and the most natural protection of the public in regard to these as to other speculations. But there se eashierationi which render it peculiarly desirable to webfoot cemeteries to some sort of control. The inter/mace with eitareirynels will naturally in vest them with additinnd yablia duties; and the test essallbel to their .segues—the situation of these essetwise la when% daily beaming lees re mote—reembes it nest nessesary that they Swill be 'objected regelstioe which their own piste sets of parliament are far, at present, fres eahreieg.

Probably the most difficult task which the Board of Health have to pedant is to provide, oe to cause to be provided, places of interment which shall be sufficiently remote from the metropolis to prevent annoyance to the inhabitant*, and yet sufficiently within reach to avoid inconvenience and expense. The sterner difficulties which would have formerly presented themselves to extramural interments are now no doubt removed by the facilities of Intercourse. Nor do we doubt for a moment that the railway companies will provide the accommodation that is necessary, along what are now the high roads out of London, for the passage of the dead as well as for the passage of the living. Bat there is a public prejudice to be iufluenced upon this subject or rather a public mind to mould and shape. To teach the public to avail themselves of the advantages which the railroads may open out to them for these purposes, will probably be lee' east than any other part of the task which the Board of Health propose to themselves to perform. Some alarm may be exprened or felt at the idea of extra expenses which such arrangements may in• volve. We believe, however, that it is capable of proof that there can be no mode of preparing funeral obsequies more extravagant than that which is the present practice. If there is one thing more than another the payment for which is disproportionate to the setvice rendered, it is that which relate, to the funeral obsequies of oar dead. By every rank in life the evil se strongly felt. The peer and the pea sant are alike victims to the extortions of the under taker. Among the rich this carrion crow of humanity— This sable man that lives apse the dead— is noted for the boldness of the charges in his bill. He knows he is amenable to no law. The items of hie account cannot be questioned. The excellence of his articles—over which the long dank grass has begun to grow—are beyond the possibility of cavil. And as for the paraphernalia—the order which was given for " a plain, respectable funeral," com prehends, according to undertakers' interpretation, " mutes" and "feathers," "cloaks" and " coaobes," not forgetting the use of that most costly article, " the best black silk velvet pall" It is of no avail that you order everything to be " plain ;" what can be mu& plain than the mourning coach and fuer, as the under taker provides it ? And yet, as we all know, the " plainest funeral in this way entails an expense of from 601. to 1001. . . As for the funeral of the poor, it is so disgrace ful as to be dear at any price. At the busiest hoar of the day you meet it in the busiest street of Lon don, splashing through the mud, the undertaker with his rusty trousers turned up, and his hst cock. d jauntily wide, lounging along in front, and calcula•- leg, as he goes, when those who have engaged to pay him for the job will be able to cash up. The widow and the children that follow after, poor souls, what privations have they not entailed upon them ' selves, what pinchinas must they not daily undergo in order to satisfy this two-legged jackal? Talk of the ecutcheon set up over the door of the noble, what ecutcheon is there half so saddening as the hoggarc looks of the poor man's widow from whom the under. taker is extracting every week et least the value of three days' labour in payment for his " services?" The sympathies of every clue of the public will be with the Board of Health in their efforts to open out to the people of London opportunities which are not at present afforded of interring the bodies of the dead. If " vetted interests" are affected—they are " vested interests " which do not deserve a moment's consideration. For our parts we should like to know the house of call at which the undertakers may appoint a meeting to get up a petition foe protec tion" or to pray for "compensation." GERMANY. BERLIN, Nov. 10. The Second Chamber has continued its discussion of the church and state question. Several long speeches "ere made in favour either of orthodox or of free Christianity. The one side declared that the state ought to have • certain declared religion, and the other that the individual alone could be religious. There was nothing of importance in the debate. Yesterday evening several other clubs were die- solved, one of them before a word even was uttered, in,rely because a German flag hung above tie. tribune. Very early in the morning ieuuse examina tions were instituted at several of the cafes, in order to prevent all preparations for honouring the memory of Robert Blum. A workman was arrested in his own dwelling because he had hanging of his window portraits of several democratic notabi lities, which he refused to take down. They were torn down by the police officials. A bookbinder was arrested and retained in prison until the evening be cause he had announced in his shop-windows that pic tures of Waldeck in hie dungeon, and of Kinkel in the House of Correction, were far s ale in his shop. This is the true celebration of the birthday of the Branden- burg ministry. UNITED STATES. In our yesterday's impression we announced the arrival of the American mail at Liverpool. The following additional particulars of the information were brought by this packet : The speakership in the new House of Assembly had begun to be discussed in the United States. Va rious rapers were speculating upon the chances of Mr. Winthrop ; Mr. Cobb, of GA:orgia ; Mr. Linn Boyd, of Kentucky ; Mr. M'Lzne, of Maryland, and others. The New York Herald thus disposes of the gossip of Weahington place-hunters: Wean interned from Washington, that among the latest rumours in that extraordinary village, it is rumoured that Mr. Meredith is to go to Banta ; that probably George Brans, of Maine, will be called to the Treasury uepartment, and that some other cabinet changes are expected to De made on er shortly after the meetag of Congress. Very likely. It is also reported that Mr. Collamer has got Wed of Major Hobble, his flat assistant in the General Pat entee, and that the Major is to go on the lit of November. This is the thing which plays the deuce with the whig party —they have so many starveling offtoe-hunters to feed, that the locofecos, from the worst to the very best, must give way, and have to be turned adrift. It is this swarm of gad-flies that has stopilled the cabinet, and rendered it melee.. It is to be hoped, however, that Collamer will retain at least one capable man in his department. As for the cabinet, the more you change it, and the sooner, the better. The state elections were still in program, and their results were anxiously looked for. In two weeks from t h e date of our latest despatches they would be concluded in nine of the sovereign states of the union —New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Delaware, Mississippi, Louisiana, Illincie, Michigan, and Wis consin. The policy of General Taylor's cabinet and the personnel of the administration at Washing ton would to a certain extent be adjadicatict on by the people at these elections, and hence the import ance attributed to them.

EXTRAORDINARY OCCURRENCE AT CLAY GATE wean Eurna.—Slisoe Sunday morning last a great sensa tion has been occasioned in the villages of Esher and Thames Oaten, and the surrounding neighbourhood, by the dis covery of the dead body of a man in a pond at Clay Gate, with his throat cut in two places, and his legs tied together. That a murder has been committed was and continues to be the belief of many people; bat the following are the facts, so far as could be collected by the reporter, of this strange affair. On Sunday morning, about half-past nine o'clock, a farmer's labourer was creasing • field in which there is a deep pond, when he observed the upper part of a man's body floating on the surface, and almost at the same ti me discovered an open clasp knife, with the blade covered with blood, lying on the gram, within • few feet of the pond. The labourer went immediately to the Old Griffin, • public house half • mile distant, and, having obtained assistance, the body was got out, sad it was then that the fact was made apparent that the deceased's legs were tied together with a silk handkerchief and very tightly, as also that there was • deep incised wound on each side of his throat immediately below the neckerchief. Upon comparing the knife found on the margin of the pond, it was evident that that was the instrument with which the wounds were inflicted. The body was afterwards taken to the Old Griffin, and examined by Ilr. Watts, a surgeon, who will, it is presumed, give his opinion ea to the manner of the death at the inquest. The deceased appesrs to be about 30 years of sie, five feet five in height, of dark complexion, and wearing large whiskers; he was dressed in a blue pilot coat, black buttons, cotton cord trousers, black vest, blue cep, black silk necker c hi e f, s and half boot, not nailed. There was no money or property of any description found upon deceased's person ; he was a stranger to this neighbourhood, but it appears he had been seen near the spot late on the_previoue evening. Information has bean sent to Kr. W. Carter, the coroner for Bart Bung. MR. CHARLES DICKErisNS, OF PUBLIC ire i. cuiriu.

By the Niagara wo hare received intelligence from the West Indies twelve days later than the date, brought by the last mail packet t) Southampton. The most important piece of information is the pass ing of a tariff bill by the Jamaica legislature. The. news was brought to New York by the steam ship Crescent City, which left Chagres on the 17th ut October, reached Jamaica on the 19th, and sailed thence on the 20th. The latest dates from Panama are the 14th Oct. At that time the city and the isthmus generally was healthy. The steamer Panama had sailed on the 91 for San Francisco, taking all the passengers then at Panama. The Crescent City brought no news from California. JAMAICA. Tna NEW TARIFP.—The bill for re-enacting the import duties, which had been three weeks in abey ance, was read a third time in the House et Assembly and passed on the 19th of October. It received the governor's assent on the afternoon of the 20th, and i• consequently now the law of the land. It contains a clause giving retrospective effect to the act, and or daining that the dues shall be levied on all goods landed since the sth of October. Some alterations have been made in the tariff: the duty on pork has been raised from 16s. to 20s. per barrel; manufactured tobacco is subjected to a somewhat higher rate than formerly, while the dnty on the unman u fact ured article is reduced. The ad valorem duty on dry goods has been raised to 4 per cent. ; no drawback allowed. We have not received a copy of the tariff as it ultimately passed; but the Kingston Intelligencer of the 20 , h Oat. publishes the following comparative table of the rates in the bill as it passed the second reading, and those under Unexpired act: Proreeddul Duty under under New Bill.

Tau Rtors.—The Jarnaiiabespakh of the 20th of October publishes the following rauml of Trinidad news :—lt appears to come down to a later period than the intelligence received by the last West India packet, but as no date is given this cannot be posi tively affirmed. It leads however to the inference that at the time of the latest advices the public I temper in Trinidad was still unsettled. Law and ender have been for the last two days in abeyance. government house has been pelt. d by a mob; its windows broken, and stones and brickbats burled at the council whilst assembled in the discharge of its legislative duty. The police, in exerting themselves to maintain order, have been stoned, cruelly beaten, and overpowered, so ea to necessitate the calling out of the military The military have also been stoned, and forced to fire is self-defence. Two deaths and one or two gun shot wounds have been the consequence. The go vernment buildings have been converted into a temporary barrack, and are at this moment occupied by the 88th, by the company of the 2nd West India Regiment stationed here, by the artillery detachment, and by the men of her Majesty's sloop Scorpion, now in harbour. Upwards of 300 special constables have been sworn in, and a volunteer horse patrol formed, l at least seventy strong. On the other hand the mob, Sadie, the force in town ton strong for them, has . e sent off a portion of their numbers to the eastward, to burn and lay waste the sugar estates in that direc tion. The m-gale-houses of Dinsley, Mscoys, and El Dorado estates have been already tired and burnt to the ground. Such is the state of things at the moment we write. The immediate and ostensible object originally brought forward as the cause of the outbreak was the regulations recently passed for the government of the Royal Gaol of Port of Spain. HAYTI. The Jamaica Journal of 20th October publishes lists of the ministers appointed, and of the princes and nobles created by " Faustin the First," Emperor of Hayti, late President Soulcuque. CANADA. Oar dates by the Niagara are from Montreal to the 27th and from Toronto to the 24th of October. The future seat of government having been settled for the present, the departments were already en route for Toronto. It is stated that the meeting of the Executive Council, at which it was resolved -o make Toronto the seat of government, was held at Drum , moadville, a village near Niagara. Only six ministers are understood to have been present, and of these two voted for Toronto, two for Kingston, and two for Montreal ; Lord Elgin deciding by his cabling vote in favour of Toronto. His lordship is r: porte dto have assigned as his reason that Lady Elgin had expressed a determination never to enter Montreal atter th unmanly treatment she herself, as well as her husband, had expe'ienced there. There is also a re port that Lord Elgin had written to Commissary General Felder, to withhold the government adver tisements from the (tory) Courier and Herald, on ac orn:it of their annexationi•t priuciples, but that that officer had refused to obey. Turee of the Lower Canada members of the minis try— Messrs. Viger, Vache, and Leslie—hied resigned and no has than eigh'een French members of the legislature are said to have threatened to go into opposition. Annexation did not app:ar to be making mach way. An attempt to get up an annexation meeting at Quebec had proved a failure. The partisans of the movement calculated upon an increase of adherents, in consequence of the selection of Toronto for the seat of government, in Kingston, Ilamilton, and Bytown, each of which had laid claim to that honour. The league had ben called together, to meet at Toronto on the Ist Nt.v.mber next, to take into con sideration matters of importance. The plan proposed to be pursued by the league was as follows :—Every branch of the league, in all the constituencies in Canada, is to agitate in its respective location, so as to induce its repreiientative is the provincial parlia ment to vets for the introduction of a bill Bather:sing the assembling together of the people of Canada, by means of delegates, in convention, for the purpose of determining on what changes in the constitution are necessiry ; and having dune so, a measure in accord ance with their views is to be brought into parlia ment, and, when carried, sent home for considi ration to England. It is for this purpose that the conven tion ot delegates ot the British American league was to meet. A union of the North American provinces will also be considered. Lord Elgin was in the neighbourhood of the Falls, leading a retired and domestic life. The rumour of his going home ere long had been renewed. A report was in circulation that the tranefer of the beat of government to Toronto was intended to be merely a temporary arrangement, that at the end of the present parliamentary term (a year and a half hence) Quebec was to become the capital of Canada, and that orders had already been issued to procure estimates for the erection of parliamentary bushings in that city. The Ifalifax Morning Chronicle says that the Canadian government have decided to hold parliameLts alternately at Toronto and Quebec. SUGGESTIONS TO IHE GOVERNMENT TO THE EDITOU Ur THE DAILY HEWS.

Suspicious CABE.—A circumstance occurred lid week, at Hamilton, which has occasioned a very mithl feeling there. It appears that a private in the 26th regiment now stationed at Perth, recently obtained a pass, or far lough, to see his friends at Hamilton. After spending ale days with them he departed from the town on th e evang of Tuesday last , with the intention of paying a visit to ha Oster, who resides at Wishawtown, which Is distant Out live miles from Hamilton. Since that evening, bowie nothing whatever has been heard of the soldier, whose use is Barr; end this mystnriou• disappearance Is rendered 02 more painful to his friends, from the circumstance, that a man attired in the uniform of the 26th regiment, ea seen in Hamilton the following day. This unifies is strongly suspected to have been that worn by Bun but the disappearance of the latter not being known at the time of the stranger's appearance in town, little latent* comparatively, was called to the individual. Some panic' however, conceived such strong suspicion of the man, ths 4 he was followed by them for a short distance out of tem. with the intention of stopping and quest-lonia, him ' • but the fellow, on mining that he was pursued, took to his huh and succeeded in making his escape in the direction of Gke gow, where, it is thought, he has taken refuge. The dor; lar and somewhat mysterious disappearance of Barr coops' with the dress and aspect of the man who was pureed. 1 01 the whole circumstances a very peculiar and ouspiesog2 character. We have no doubt the authorities here will their best to apprehend the suspected individual, as thee seems every reason to believe that he can throw some 80 on the matter.—North British Maid.
