A ',tun/root CURATE IN TUE CHURCII or Rutty —The Rev. Arthur G. Marshall, late curate at Bt. Machias's Church, in Liverpool, last week wrote two letters to his Incumbent, the it... Pnilip Mains, one dated January a, and the other Imam) 4, in the former of which he Meted that the views he held were Incuegistent with the spirit of the Church of England, and that, therefore, he could no longer hold the office of a clergyman, or receive swages" which be could not oaterienliously earn; and la the latter informing Mr. limns that since the preceding day he bad become " • Catholic." Mr. Heine, in reply, after reviewing the various dogmas of the Church of Rome, adds It is impossible, utterly impossible, that you could have arrived at the truth of all them separate doc trines in forty-eight hnurs—tbe only ...adagios that I can, therefore, route to is the you bars been in heart for a long time what you are now openly —a Rotuieh MU 31alitklarig;.— ' fht: re. marriageir taken Pre la items, according to the rites of the Korn catholic dr* a the Marcia and Marchionew of Sligo. Dr. Calla having delornitad to carry out the decline of the W es til k l a lltnelee to the very letter, all efforte to procure a bre this Court of Rome proved abortive, and way shear te reveal the marriage from taking place was thrown la tile way by the church authorities at hoer and arr. The lady, however, remained drat, and eventually the evessay we. solarised by a Pruteetent clergyman. The decree helm rue praeUally set et nought, it doulelen strait Dr. Casa sad hie abettors that the next step on the pen of the merest would be a total secedes far the church. Hence, probably, the re ported pod akin of Maisignor Talbot in the adjustment fifths delicate dlkedty. " The lapel prohibition of mixed =T" says the Oodles Nail, having puns forth in oe conditios was tatimated on which the atrictrins of the law might be relaxed—namely, that the whole tinnily of the next and of all fwure generetions should be given over 'to the en twin tutelage of Rowe. Had the MairqMs of Sligo submitted to that modest stipulation ha would have Grand no ob.tecle that a 101. note could nut remove in the allegation of kindred which wee set up optima his proposed marriage with the lady on whom he bad placed his affection., for her ' , later had been united, uy episcopal hands, but a ohort time befure, to a gentleman who stood premarly in the nave ratios. Triable lord, however, was firm, and the young lady, with a spirit and intelligrece which refl ected the highest reedit upon her bringing up, disregarded the flimsy pretext, and gave her head as freely an it had been asked, without sbandoeing principle on her aide, or requiring • bees shoe gation of ism his.'

It le quits certaie, however, that there were many other tomes injured than tame whoa ✓ows hove already become known ; and it treneptred as &etudes', in the course of inquiry, that there were people to the London Hospital, Mile Bad-road, who ware injured by the fell of the *tureen.

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 10, 1859. &woes in the some simple, charming style she nar rates the adventures and exploits of some children of the settlers who had lost their way. Scarcely a summer passes over the colonists in Canada without losses of children from the families of colonists from a similar cause. Many thus lost have perished in the wilderness. Happily our young Crusoes are soon discovered and led back, but not till they had seen much of forest scenery, and had been put to many shifts, here told with great animation, and with a view to impress on the young the natu ral resources of the colony. The Canadian Crums has now reached a second edition, and is likely long to retain its hold upon the young. After all, no writers CAA surpass the ladies in the art of instructing or charm ing youth. The Canadian Crumes is anothet illustration of this most ancient truth. _ . Youth requires, however, something more for its mental food than fiction, or tales of adventure or foreign travel, or past history. There is no teaching like that which takes us to the grave of the great and gifted. There are no lessons Wm those we learn when we study the secret of their success, and no moralist can suggest more as to the vanity of the busy dream we call late than can the voice that comes to us from the tomb. Mr. Grinsted, in his Relies of Genius, is aware of this. He viiits the last homes of poets, painter, sad player., and adds a few unpre tending biographical notes. A few engravings ac easapany the letter press. The list of worthies ben commented on is numerous—and, in some respects, too comprehensive ; but the volume is very readable, and is very prettily got up, and, on the whole, we doubt not will prove an acceptable present at this season of the year. REFORMATORIES AND PLACES OF REFUGE. The sudden and remarkable impulse which has been recently given to the public sympathy with re spect to institutions like the above is a fact that cannot be got over, and it is a most remarkable one. We know that economists, especially those of the (Jradgrind school, have a great deal to say against both Reformatories and Refuges, and especially the latter; but the universal public are, after all, seldom wrong ; and the manner in which, during the Christmas week, they have poured in their donations to such of those institutions as were specially pointed out to them, proves beyond question their opinion to be that Reformatories for the frail and Refuges for the destitute are matters which ought to find place amongst the institutions of a humane and civilised nation. With respect to Reformatories it is often urged, and with much plausibility, by those self-complacent philosophers whose metier it is to talk while other people are acting, that such institutions are a premium upon juvenile crime, inasmuch as that for children who have fallen away they provide a home and a shelter, while those who have not as yet strayed from the paths of rectitude are left to their destiny of desti tution and the streets. The answer to this is, that juvenile delinquency is a great and appalling fact; that it existed before reformatories were thought of; that it daily increases, from causes with'whicli reformatories have nothing to do; and that if the latter should have any effect in checking or dimi nishing the gross amount of youthful demoralisa tion, they will have achieved an amount of positive good quite sufficient to counterbalance any set off that may be shown of problematical evil. The truth is that Reformatories, which happily are daily be coming more and more general, are the effect, and not the cause of the melancholy moral condition of our poorer youthful population. Humane people could not walk through our streets by day or by night without noticing that every noisome corner festered with ragged children, whose obvious alternative must be to steal or starve, nor could they take up a newspaper without having their attention attracted by a police report in which the principal figure was " A miserable child, whose head scarcely reached the dock," and whose biography, when elicited by the benevolent interrogatories of the magistrate, might generally be summed up in a few but expressive words, such as " No father, no mother, lives in the stints;" or, "Bad father, worse mother, trained and coerced into thieving by parental authority." And these were not isolated cases, only disfiguring the police report* by single instances or at long intervals. They turned up daily, in scores, nay in hundreds, leading to the inevitable conclusion that the land was in danger of being speedily over run by a moral pestilence. What was to be done? The disciples of Malthus might tell us that such children ought not to be there, but there they were. They could not be written off the account like a bad debt in a merchant's ledger, nor could we, in imita tion of our neighbours in revolutionary times, insti tute a Noyade and send them all to the bottom of the Thames. The English mind, although not deeply philosophical, is happily very practical while the English heart is generally admitted to be " in the right place" after all. Accordingly, English people whe had leisure from their own affairs, and who rightly deemed that they owed that leisure to their country, busied their heads, opened their hearts, and relaxed their puree strings, the result being the establishment of the Reformatories already so flourishing, and which have become so numerous aa to necessitate the formation of a Central Union, to which all might tarn for advice and asesiatanoe, and which should give the benefits of consolidation and extension to the good work. Against the nightly Refuge the economists have a stronger case, but the advocates and supporters of those institutions have, as we think, a still stronger defence. When we hear the storm howl, the rain beat against the window panes, see the snow, and feel the frost, our thoughts and hearts, if we have any, involuntarily tarn to the poor child, or the fragile emaciated adult, whom we have seen huddled up at the workhouse gate, with their naked shoulders quivering in the cold, and their faces puckered up in the ghastly wrinkles of hunger. It is of no use tell ing us that by finding for such outcasts a temporary shelter we are encouraging idleness, and defrauding the lodging-house-keeper, to whew "twopenny rope " they most have applied if we had not found them a lodging; or that we were only establishing so many rendezvous for thieves, from which they can sally out in the morning like giants refreshed to their daily game of plunder. Thieves are seldom desti tute, for they are strong and unscrupulous, and like beasts of prey know how to provide themselves with food. They are an organisation and a frater nity, they have their stock purse, and their haunts, far removed from the ken of either the philanthro pist or the policeman, and they will shun with the instinctive cunning of their class all places which are known to be under the supervision of honest men. Here, however, we must repudiate an argu ment in favour of places of refuge which has been put forward by one of oar contemporaries, namely, that they might be made subservient to purposes of detection, by collecting together the vagrant popula tion of the streets, and thus offering opportunities for acquiring intimate knowledge of their ways and faces, with greater facilities for future recognition. If our nightly refuges are to be so many traps set to catch and brand thieves, their purpose will be defeated altogether. Like the Poor-law Commissioners, the promoters of the nightly Refuge have only to do with one fact, which is that of destitution. They find the homeless wanderer shivering in the streets, they know that if let there, even for a few hours, he must t erish, and that even though he be &thief, our law is not so Draconic as to ordain that even a thief should die of cold and hunger. Let us hope then that there may be no intelligence between the Refuges and Scotland-yard, but that the promoters of the former will deem their mission achieved when they have given a night's shelter to the half.naked starving claimant, without inquiry as to his moral character, or " marking" him for the convenience of the Police.

Young England has ample reaaon to rtjoios that its lot has been cask in these latter days. Thirty years back it was not an espy task to "nourish a louth sublime elf& the fairy tales of science, auktlee4 ong moats of time." When knowledge became popularised—when wisdom lifted up her voice in the streets—when mankind seemed to have started in earnest in the career of social profuse, sensible people came to think that the best plan was to begin with the young, and to leave the obstinate and the prejudiced to be quietly dealt with by that real re former and innovator, lime. The result is that a literature of great merit has sprung up, devoted exclusively to the young. The world's annals are ransacked for illustrations of the great and good, the noble and the true. The latest discoveries of science are laid under contribution. The engraver lends his aid ; nay, even the writer of fiction, scorning the robust intellect, condescends to lead the way into the realm of faery : Among tha lonely shades of things, The .hadoery forms of mountains bars, And streams, and bower., and Indio, fair, The shades of palace s and kings." For some weeks there has been a gradual accumu lation of this kind of literature upon our shelves. We owe a debt to the publishers and the public which we will now proceed to pay. The Boy's Book of Modern Travel and Adven ture, with eight illustrations by William Newby, must certainly be moat acceptable to every well regulated juvenile mind. It contains some good stones of travel from our latest travellers. The reader sails as far as Spitzbergen with Lordnufferin, experiences the terrors of a sou'-wester in the At lantic while on board the Agamemnon laying down the telegraphic cable ; wanders in the priniceval forests or enormous prairies of America ; finds his way into Japan ' • traverses the Chinese empire with the Abbe Hu e ; has terrible encounters with pirates in the Indian seas ; with Mr. Layard discovery winged bulls and lions at Nineveh voyage!) in Nile boats with Bayard Taylor ; goes lion-hunting with Dr. Livingstone, Gordon Cumming, and Jules Ger rard ; is told all about savages and Spanish bull fights and the Mexican war and British adventures in Asia ; goes harpooning whales and shooting eider ducks ; and finally is frozen up with Dr. Kane and his merry men. The charm of the book is its fresh ness and variety. The sketches are short, well written, and excellent in tone and spirit. The Kangaroo Hunters requires condensation ; otherwise it contains enough or adventure to satisfy the most hungry youth. The story is that the Rev. M. Maybaro, an English rector, seemingly singu larly unfitted to rough it, resitfus his English living, and accepts a missionary appointment in India. He and his family land in Australia, and thence proceed to India—a roundabout way, for which there appears to have been no cause, and which has an unfortunate result. At Melbourne they embark in a ship bound fur Calcutta ; but the captain is • drunkard, and the crew consist of runaway convicts. And we are not surprised when we learn that the ship ia burnt, and that there is great loss of life. The Mayburns are saved, and the lads build canoes, regain the main land, find their perilous way through the bush, fight with the natives and the kangaroo.., till they make their way to • friend who h coma out from Eng land with them, and who msrries the sister. The tale after all is very slight ; nor does that matter much, as the chief aim of the author evidently is as much as possible to put before the young the princi pal characteristics of Australian scenery and life, and in this point of view she has been very suc cessful. Nature's Sehool, or Lessons in the Garden and the Field, is the history of twelve months in the lite of a little orphan, passed under the watchful care of a sensible and truly religious old lady. The writer endeavours to show the importance of early habits, early lessons, and consistent conduct. No child, she maintains, is too young to learn—no child is too young to be taught obedience, truthfulness, and diligence, for even a child is " known by his d oings whether his work be pure, and whether it be right." Perhaps it may be objected that we have in the story a little too much didactic theology and not quite enough of incident; but religious parents will be glad to give such a book to their children, and its influence on the youthful mind cannot but be good. It is impossible to impress on boys and girls too strongly those religious principles which shall guide and fortify them in their path through life. The world comes quite soon enough with its witchery. As long es possible let the teaching of home be bright, and pure, and devout. A Child's Warfare is written in a similarly re ligious spirit, but the story is more animated, the incidents are more varied, and the style is more attractive. al Child's Warfare possesses great literary merit. Beechwood-hall, a fine old monition situated near a very retired and picturesque village about four miles from the sea, on the eastern coast of England, is the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie, their only son Harold,and three little girls. Harold, the eldest child, a remarkably handsome, sprightly boy, with dark eyes and impetuous spirit, is always getting into scrapes and forgetting all his good resolves. The latter are all in vain till he meets with an alarming accident, and becomes seriously ill. A change for the better is then eff. cted, and we leave him on his way to Rugby with great hopes for his future career. dynes Hopelimns Schools and Holidays is more especially a book for little girls. Mrs. Hopetoun is the widow of a surgeon living on a very limited in come, and with difficulty bringing up her four children. A rich uncle turns up, and Agues and her sister are sent to a fashionable school near Lon don, and experience all the dangers and temptations to which young ladies in such places are exposed, partly from her own fault and partly from the fault of others. The rich uncle dies, and again the for tunes of the family are overcast. However, the Bar dukes estate proves to be a valuable property, and great I. the joy of Agnes and the rest of the family. A more gracefully written story it is imposaible to desire. Some of our writers for the young have gone very far back, and have tried to reproduce old Roglish life, when our fathers were wrestling with the Roman or fighting the Hasp, or gallantly crusading in the Holy Land. Days of Old consists of three stories from English history, written with all that sympathy with what is strong and true, and sterling, in olden time, which is becoming a charac teristic of us moderns, and in that bewitching style which compels the a , tention of the reader, and leaves the critic nothing to find fault with or r: Trail. an English lady, and sister of Mims Agate Strickland, devotes herself to the die teat land when she has found a home. Her Backwoods of Canada is a book that has long been held in high estimation. la the Comulims (Stamped Id. Additional) [ '4% OPENCE. . they will attract to us all the destitution of the rural districts in a flood; but this objection, whatever force it might have had some time since, is becoming weaker and weaker every day. We are happy to find, from one of the pamphlets just published by the Central Union, that all the greet towns are rapidly imitating the example of London, and that to look after the juvenile delinquency and destitu tion of their own neighbourhoods is beginning to be ranked by our provincial friends amongst the fore most of their municipal duties. Let us not then be deterred from the good work of establishing Reforma tories and Houses of Refuge by the cold calculations of the economist, or the still colder reasoning of the philosopher. Let us not be ashamed to re member that the heart has a place in the human physiology as well as the head, and that its impulses may sometimes be taken as a guide, as well as the more frigid dic tates of reason. And even when following the latter, let us not confuse effect with cause, far Reformato ries and Refuges have to deal with effects, which effects are direful facts that cannot be got rid of by the most ingenious reasoning in the world. We shall now take a passing glance at the list of Reformatories and Refuges in the metropolis which has just been published by the Reformatory Union, and we shall do so with a double view—first, in order that the economists need not be alarmed lest they should speedily abeerh all the vegrawy of tie king dom ; and, secondly, that the golden harvest which is daily pouring with such concentrated abundance into the coffers of one or two may be more impar tially distributed, and thereby made more univer sally beneficial in its results. It appears that within the metropolitan districts there are in all 33 institu tions coming under the denomination of Reformato ries or Refuges, 18 for males and 15 for females, and that they have accommodation for males 1,017, females 731, in all, 1,748—a mere drop in the ocean of our vagrancy and delinquency, but speak ing trumpet-tongued in favour of further develop ment. Ot tbese,l4—namely Britannia-court, Brook street, Bryan-street, Field-lane, Grotto-passage, Maida-hill, Bt. Giles'', and St. George's (for males), and Albert -street, Dolphin's-court, " Elizabeth Fry's," Female Refuge and Cripples' Home, Refuge for the Destitute, Bt. Giles's and St.George'e Training Refuge, are "Refugee," either temporary or permanent ; three are the homes of the highly successful " Shoeblack Brigades," and the remainder are Reformatories for juvenile criminals, or incorrigible" children, who may be sent there and ;paid for by their parents. The oldest of all the refuges is the Refuge for the Destitute at the Manor-house, Dalton, which was founded so far back as 1806. It was originally intended for both sexes, but in 1849 it was appro priated exclusively to females; but the importance of such institutions is evidenced by the gross number reclaimed sirce the foundation being no less than 8,100. The Field-lane Refuge has already received prominent notice in the columns of a contemporary, but it is to be hoped that its claims on the charity of the public will not be allowed altogether to eclipse those of kindred institutions. It would be, of course, impossible to enumerate in detail all the Refuges and Reformatories in London, but there is one of the latter which, although only founded in 1832, has already risen, mainly through the exertions of one benevolent gentleman, Mr. George L. Bowyer, to a high degree of importance and efficiency. Commencing with only six inmates in a hired house, it rose within the last year to the dignity of a large separate establishment, accommodating its 100 boys, who on their release from prison are taken in here, reformed, and ultimately enabled to earn an honest livelihood. It is curious to observe in the case of this, as of nearly all is kindred institutions, that they all started with the very smallest begin nings, that the zeal of *is single individual, generally speaking, set them going, and that the public by their support at once recognised their necessity and usefulness. The same may be said of the nightly Refugee, which only require further extension to have their advantage more generally felt, and which it is to be hoped may before long be established in every parish in the metropolis. Now that the pub lic attention is thoroughly awakened it is to be hoped that charity will flow in an equitable stream to all the charities above enumerated, and that the advantages which have been proved to result from the existing Reformatories and Refuges may stimu late the more general establishment of other institu tions of a similar description. PRISON ACCOMMODATION IN MIDDRIUYIL Oa Saturday, at the Mar) lebone vestry, Mr. Churchwarden TATZILMZR presiding, a question, relative to a threatened imposition of 413,000/. upon the ratepeyere of Middlesex by the county magistrates, for prison purposes, was brought under the notice of the board for consideration. Mr. D'IrIANCIER, PAU, moved—" That the proposed ex. pendlture by the county justices of the pesos for Middlesex of the sum of 38,0001. for the enlargement of the Middlesex House of Correction appears to be unnecessary, in conse quence of the number of prisoners having grottly de creased." Mr. lrlffsnger observed that, in July, 1867, the county megistrates, in consequence of an increase of pri soners, resolved upon an outlay of 48,0001. for providing increased accommodation in the goal. The prison at pre sent accommodated 1,398, but the alterations would have made room fur GOO menu. Although the money was voted for the alterations, the carrying out of the plans was delayed, until in October hut, owing to the gradual decrease of priwiners since December, 1857, the visiting jut tires reported that there was no necessity for the bogs de creased scovmmodation that had been resolved upon, at the same time attking leave to build 300 erparate new cells for carrying out the solitary system in the gaol, the oust of which would be 38,0001. To this proposed new outlay he (Mr. D'lffanger) dieetored, as her did not consider it called for, with a dare.* of prisoners to the extent of 600 below the number generally contained Is the gaol, this demesne being attributable to increased labour, cheapness of provi sions, and the requirement of men in the militia; and looking to the present boavy burdens on the ratepayer., the threatened (usher increase of tsxation during the present year, the probable coat of 200,0001. for a new county lunatic raylum in the course of s few yeare, and the musty debt having been increasing during the lest tett years until it was now above half a million, he trusted the magistrates of the Marylebone division would do their utmost to prevent the threatened outlay end that, as a body, the magistrates would not agres to it. (Hsar.). Mr. SMART seconded the motion. Mr. Skov ouvox (magistrate) pointed out that the pro posed expenditure appeared to be not for enlarging the prison, but for the purpose of adopting the separate ' , totem in the gaol. He used the words "separate system," as that WWI what was now intended, and not the system of solitary con finement; and it ...steed to be a qunnion with the magis trates whether or not it would be advieable to adopt the sepa rate system, which had worked so well in other prisons. Mr. WILLIAMS. M.P. (Lambeth), observed that the wor thy magistrate was guile right as to the intention of the county justices. The Secretary of State for the Home De portment had urged the magistrates throughout the United Kingdom to adopt the silent or separate system ; and by the proposed expenditure of 38,0001. it was iottioded to erect 318 new cells in the Bliddlests House of Correction, fur carryiog out this system of punishment, the dormitory system having proved very objectionable. Tee resolutior esa edupted nem. eon , and it we. resolved to seek the aupport of the hlaryieenes division of county megistralos thereon, as sloe the co-operation of the several metropolitan parishes.

On Saturday the half-yearly general meeting of the members of the College of Preceptors was held at their elfin*, 42, Quits-equate, Bloomsbury ; Dr. lierritaer a, of Cheltenham, In the chair. The general report for the half.)aar stated in sub stance that the council had been placed in a by no maim easy or satisfactory position, but at the same Bum they felt no cause fordeepondeney. Nevertheless, facts and cir cumstances bad amen since the meeting in Midsummer which showed that energetic efforts were reqaired to meet the present condition of afire. A mien had arrived, out of which it was believed that the institution might be established on a satisfactory bads if mutual aid was *forded by the council and the general body of members. As regarded finance, It was stated that many members had failed In paying their sub scriptions. A select committee, which had been appointed to examine into the affair, of the institution, had brought to light the existence of • large amount of debt, but owing to the mead= which prevailed in the office, and the state of the books, it wee difficult to ascertain what their annual con dition was. The average amount of subewiptions in the last three years had amounted to 1601. per annum. Some had since come in, but not in such amount as to give • fair ann ua l income whic h could only be derived from subscriione, and could n oti depend on donations ;in fact annual sithenttioaa were essential to the maintenance of the corporation. Not lase than 3001. a year was necessary for keeping up the house now occupied in Quemi.equare ; and taking the expenses connected with the amatory, printing, advertising, &c.. • sum of not leas than 6001. per annum was required to meet the expenses of the institution. With reference to Adel changes, they lied to report that ltir,Joba Pada, 120/11feretary, who had held th at Ace from the Ira ema blishotent of the college, had resigned. Having received his salary up to Christmas, on 27th November, from the he had discontinued his attendance at the office.

As regarded the revision of the bye latex the committee sad the dues honorary secretaries bed taken great pains so to deal with them as to render them harmonious with the charter,with the objects of the profession which the college represented, end the interests of the college itself. The usual Christmas exa minations of pupils had taken piece, • large number had been examined in that house in which the meeting was assembled, of whom a considerable proportion bad peened, and received certificates.

MIL I. 4. MUTH, 11. P., ON P. 111110 Alf. Mr. J. A. Smith, the liberal member for Chiches ter, addressed a crowded meeting of his constituents to the Council-chamber, on Friday night, at 8 o'clock. Mr. Adams, who had been called to the chair, having explained that the honourable member attended to give en account of his stewardship, and also his opinions upon the public ques tions of the day, Mr. Bxtrn came forward, and we. received with loud cheers. He wished his constituents to know that be was in favour of a very large extension of the suffrage—(cheer,)—of vote by ballot—(great cheering)—but if Na Birmingham gentlemen, when they talked of • more equal apportionment of members to population, meant electord district., be did not agree with them—(hear, hear)—beceuse he did not be lieve that such an apportionment would be acceptable to the mess of the people of Eogland—(hear, hear)—and he condi • dered that old arrangements and old associations poemseed great importance. Then, with regard to the preeent govern ment, he could not forget that, as a party, they had °posed the whole of the reforms which he had enumerated. (Hear, beer.) Still, he did not forget the great obligations which the country owed them, nor the fact that Lord Derby, when • • member of Lord Grey's government, proposed slave emancipation. He had merely stated an un deniable fact ; and there was en old proverb that "Necessity makes tui acquainted with very queer bedfellows"—(langliter) —and when he saw Mr. Bright and Mr. Hanky going to getter, be confessed he didn't like it, as it wee • strange amalgamation which filled him with something like sus picion. (Renewed laughter.) But, at the same time, he should look at measures and not men—(cheere)—and it Lord Derby's government propoeed a reTorm bill which he believed to be honestly framed for the purples of introducing those changes and those alterations which time heel rendered de (treble and necessary, he should give them his support — (cheer.)—and he believed if they did this they would also receive the support of the people of England. (Cheers.) If, on the other hand, they introduced a [sesame so onooestitu- Clonal and wrong ma would transfer power from the boroughs to the counties and give the Utter supreme influence, be ahoiald, of course, most determinedly oppose them. (Cheers.) He hoped, however, that they would not be so nowise. The hon. gentleman resumed his seat amidst loud cheering. A vote of thanks to Mr. Smith for his able and intereeticg address terminated the proceedings. MR. TITI MP., UN PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. Mr. Tite, M.P., addressed a numerous meeting of his constituents at the Guildhall, Bath, on Thursdayevening. The hon. gentleman, having reviewed the leading event of the lest oession of parliament, came to the question of par liamentary reform. He sincerely hoped that they would not only have a large measure of teform, but an honest and sincere one; that the legislature would not eel to do that which would turn to the advantage of nty .A ; but that they would do that which was honest. above and fair to all parties.

A public meeting baying been called at Stroud for next week to hoer the statements of the members on the political questions of the day, Mr. Script, ham issued an address to the constituency, in which be Nays he does not avail himself of this opportunity of addremong the electors because in "the present misty awl uncertain state of the political atmoephere he has nothing &finite or positive to elate to them." On the "abject of reform Mr. &rope bays " With regard to reform there are certainly mazy pennons at present not possessed of the parliamentary tram:Mae, who from their intelligence and education may be safely and ed vantsgeonsly entrusted with it. It i.e also undeniable that some localities wow., more, some less than their just pro pinion of the entire repro...mated:. I think a favourable opportunity Is now afforded fur the correclon of thew anomie hos. Moreover, I have .Itrayg beau of opinion that the voter should be protected in the conscientious exercise of his suffrage. While, however, I am a parliamentary reformer to this extent I may say that I shall not be found to support any extreme and bazerdons change in the machi nery of our repreeentative eyetem, which in its prwent form has throughout the long tune during which your continued kindness has enabled me to assist in its working been pro ductive of so much beneficial legislation, and I believe moved quite es fast in the path of progress no public opinion would permit. Moreover the contrast exhibited duriog the name period by other tountries in which fundamental institutional changes have been attempted with results fatal to all liberty. does not encourage ne to risk a continuance of the blessings we have been all along enjoying by any rash experiments of that kind ; and I shall deeply regret it, as some persons an ticipate, a year or two are to be spent in the agitation of such proposals which might be much better employed urn measures of practical Improvement, the only true object and aid of paritamemtary representation." In conclusion he ex presses continued confidence in the late ministry. On Friday night a public meeting was held at the Guildhall, Bats, "to petition perliament for justice to dissenters in the matter of school trues, the principle of religious liberty having been endangered by the decisions of the Lords Itatices in the Ihnisster cur, in which it wee derided that • honest men of the pertsh' were mg eligible unless members of the church of Escland."
