We cannot doubt your demi disapprobation of the disingenuousness of such 'deduct. Eves supposing the doctrines of our church to be as unsound as we firmly behove them to be the reverse, still it is directly opposed to the fleet obvious principles of manlier for persons to continue professed members of the church, and perhaps enjoying its emoluseents,while assailing those doctrines. With respect to the publication in gum bos, we have not hitherto deemed it necessary to take any public step, considering that the writers were I. Eogleh dioceses, and that the respective diocesaos would be likely to take such measures, either by ecclesiastical censure or otherwise, as the owe might appear to them to all for ; and we believe that it is but very roundly that the matter has obtained any considerable notoriety in this portion of the church. But now' that this publication is obtaining much circulation, we feel it necessary to call your attention to it, with • view to your putting your clew specially on their guard against the possible inroads of erroneous and strange doctrines as this new farm. As to the best mode of your doing this, your owe judgmeut sad knowledge at the cw• cunistanose in each loadity will he a sufficient guide.

E. CHALON, ILA., AND J. J. CHALON, ILA. • • - Now that the lent of the brothers Chalon is no more, and that the productions of them over-rated artiste, offered according to the will of the departed to Use National ilallery, have been very properly declioed, they will be sold at Messrs . Christie and Manson s, on Monday next and four following days, and may be viewed to-day, to-morrow, and Saturday. It may excite surp r i se th a t th e sale shouts be arranged to extend over des days, but the "lots" Dumber upwards of 1,200, each comprising from 100 to evilly WO items. Besides the innumerable productions in every con ceived style—miniature sketches of all kinds, water ' colour drawings, studies, and finished paintings in oil of the two Chairs there is • very large collection of the emirs of the famous Sketching Society, besides books, engravings, and books of prints. If fecundity were the only criterion of an artist, then would the Chalons, and especially the eider, be placed in the first oink, second only perhaps to Turner himself. It is, how ever, difficult to imagine at this time of day what peculiar chum could be discovered in the water-colour drawings of the veteran sketcher Alfred Chalon. Vet these flimsy meretricious productions were idolized by the depraved taste of defunct fashion, they were immeosly popular when en graved, and upon them • reputation was founded which secured the full academic diploma. It is true that this was in the early days of the Academy, and also of water colour drawing. One thing is nevertheless quite certain, namely, that Alfred Chalon, R.A., never could draw a head. There is always something Chinese, angular uLd incorrect about the general proportions and coutour r well as individual fearer aotwithstaad ing that the artist attempted so little character or individuality. A French smartness, which passed for elegance, is the chief merit diacoverable—ll indeed such a quality 4110111VANI to he so considered. The Berm brother, J. J. Chaim, though likewise incapable el finish, was • far better artist. He has left several large landscapes, which have fine qualities, in some instances even nearly approaching Turner in his early style. In subject, they are alternately simple and natural, striking or impresaire, Moder and romantic in feeling. They vary from simple rustic scenes, sea prom, and architecture, to poetical composition. The colour is generally rich and glowing, and merlon/11y, doubtless very beautiful. With many technical defects, the ~ipaito is nevertheless always bold and effective and the shadows juicy. Landscape was dec idedly this painter's/err Coquestionably, however, the roost interesting portion of the sale will be • very large collection of the works of the famous Sketching Society. These sketches range from the earliest days of the society, and bear the names of several aaidemicans deemed and almost forgotten, but they also include beautiful examples of Leslie, Sir Edwin Lanclaeer, Stanfield, Ward, wins. and the Chalons themselves, who were roost felicitous in this department. The Royal Amilemecians during • long period adopted the custom of meeting alternately at each other's house for the purpose of sketching • given impromptu subject in a stated time, the sketches so executed remaining the property of the member at whose bones the meeting took place. In this way (for the moat part), in a long course of years, the elder Chalon be came posesseed of this remarkably rich rid interesting eollection.

PORTRAIT OF GARIBALDI.—AT. Jones Barker has executed a full length portrait of " Garibaldi in hie Island Honie,Caparra," which is now lobe seen at Messrs.

He incidentally re viewed the history of the museum, attributing its success to Be adherence to a definitive plan, as at first de termined on, instead of pursuing desultory studies. He alluded to the architectural tomes of the past year, in cluding the designs for the Foreign.offloe, and also to the main subjects of the future—notably the Exhibition of 1862. With regard to the prizes which the council of the Architectural Museum had decided on giving, he said that the names of the art.workmen had been sent in together with their specimens. This had not, of course, affected the decisions of the judge. ; but in future the rule of anonymity would be adopted. He was happy to inform the meeting that the museum had a handsome balance at its bankers. Mr. Hope expressed regret at the unavoidable absence of the Duke of Bucelinich, the Bishop of Oxford, Lord Overstone, Sir Francis Scott, and other gen tlemen who took a lively interest in the objects of the mu seum, and who had written letters expressive of that in terest, as well sent sorrow at not being able to attend. The prizes were then given to the successful competitors. For modelling in clay there were three prizes, of the re srmetive amounts of 51. lie., 31. 30., and 2/. 2a., the second being offered by Mr. 8. C. Hall. The subject prescribed was • model for a vesicashaped, or circular medallion of the late Duke of Wellington, en closed in • border, and executed entirely in high relief. Eleven specimens were sent in ; sod the following is the order in winch the successful competitors stood : James Allen, Warwick ; John Hatchets, London ; and Henry Owes Hill, Stamford. Prizes of 51. ss. and 3/. 3s. were offered for metal work, the subject being • key, either medieval or renaissance in style, hammered, pierced. or punched (not filed), and with an ornamental handle. It is somewhat remarkable, and not agreeably so, that these two prime should have been reserved, for want of may competition among our artificers in iron or steel. On the other hand, wood carving was well represented, although only three specimens bad been re ceived. The subject called for was a carved oak panel for one side of the binding of • church Bible, and two prizes were tendered, of 31. 3e. and 21. 2., the wood being given by Mr. S. C. Hall. The first prize was gained by Henry Reynolds, London ; the second by B. L. Bolton. Binning. Ire ; and an additional prize of 1/. Is. was awarded to the third competitor, J. Seymour, Taunton. A single prise of 3/. le. was offered by the council for the moat meritorious cartoon for a canopy head for painted glass, supposed to support a figure ; and We prise was gained by J. J. Laing. Edinburgh, out of seven competi tors ; but so nearly equal in merit was thought to be the design it G. Bedding, Bristol, that an additional prize was awarded is this case also. _ _ The polychromatic theory of architectural historians is held by several gentlemen connected with this museum ; and we were not surprised, therefore, to find that, on the Beeleeinlogical Society offering, through the council, a prise for colouring a cast of • group of figures from the great hollow moulding I. the arch of the Porte Rouge. Notre Dame, of Paris, Mr. Beresfonl Hope had offered 31. 3s. in one or more extra prizes. It was specified that the cast should, in its manse, of chromatic treatment, be regarded as forming a pert of an architectural composi tion, and not as cabinet picture. The winner of the prise in this class was W. J. Sinikin, Loudon ; hut the specimen submitted by E. 0. P. Harrison, Loodoo, was prouounced to be almost equally good. To this second competitor, there- fore, the extra prise was gives in one amount. After the distribution, Weenie wen delivered by Earl Powys, Mr. Ferguson, and Br. B. C. Ball.

This morning his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Commander-in-Chief, who had been expected at this prruon for several days past, arrived at the Chatham. station from the Horse Guards, for the purpose of holding• review of the troops now quartered at this station. His Royal Highnese,who was accompanied by Map an -Geoeral the Hon. Sir James Yorke Scarlett, E.C.8., Ad t-General, and Major-General Sir Richard Abney, Quarter. nester-General, and attended by Colonel C. Tyrwhitt, his aide-de-camp, and some other odious, reached Chatham. station at a few minutes after 11 o'clock. whore Major- General Eyre, the commandant of the garrison, and the whole of the principal officers were in attendance to receive him. The troops on the ground included the companies of Royal and Imam Engineers, both of which have been recently amalgamated, the three battalions of infantry, comprising the 4th King's Own, 7th Royal Fusiliers, 19th, 20th, 23rd Royal Welsh Fusiliers, 24th, 31at, 36th, 43rd Light Infant ry , 51st Light In fantry, 52nd Light Infantry, 730., 774 h, 77th, 814, 83rd, 91 sad 4 th Regiments, and the Chatham division of Royal Light Infantry, the entire force number. lag helves"' 5,000 and 6,000 bayonets. Before proceeding to ailing.; where the troops were a ll drawn up, his Roma Highness and staff rode through Chatham barracks to Brampton barrack; occupied by the corps of Royal Engi neers, and inspected the memorial arch, which has been raised to the memory of those officers and men of the Royal Engineers who fell in the Crimea, the foundation stone of which was laid by the Duke of Cambridge on the let March, 1860. His Royal Highness also went over the new ranges of buildings erected at Brampton barracks for the officers and men of the Royal Engineers, both of which are now just completed. These include a large lecture theatre, laboratory school, class-rooms, and photograph rooms, together with other departments for carrying on the instruction of the officers and men belong ing to the scientific portion of the army. Before leaving Brampton barracks his Royal Highness par took of luncheon in the officers' mess-room, where he re mained • short time. The Duke of Cambridge, accompanied by the other distinguished officers, after leaving the Engi neers barracks proceeded to the field-works of the Royal Engineers, and atterwaels to the convict prison, where he was received by Captain Powell, the governor. TIM Lox Dm, IRISH RIPL7II, —On T uesday evening the members of this corps assembled in strong force at the Floral Hall, Covent-garden , for the purpose of being in. spaded by the Marquis of Donegan. The ceremony was interesting,very and get the men. galleries being ere over crowded 100 mozwitaliniadfix present besides the band. The roll of the regiment now amounts to over 600 men. The Marquis of Donegan arrived about half.past seven o'clock, when he was saluted by the wipe with repeated rounds of applause. The noble marquis having walked through the ranks and carefully examined each man, be next put the regiment through some movements, which they went through in good style ; after which be delivered an address, in the course of which he urged the tweaky of constant attend ance at drill. In 000d111.1011, he expressed his belief that, with the assistance of officers and privates, there existed little doubt but that the London Irish would rank among the first, and be second to no corps. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge had honoured the Benevolent So. ciety of St. Patrick by promising to preside at the festival dinner in aid of the funds of that society on Saturday, the 16th instant, and tie regiment will provide a guard of honour to attend on his royal highness on that occasion.

There appears at present little probability that the tarn-out amongst the power-loom weavers at Bolton will soon be ended, and there is every probability of a turn out amongst the operative spinners and other branches of the factory hands. On Tuesday a large public meeting of power-loom weavers was held in the Market-place ; James a i d llw r Oss , ; ... sresiding. Thomas Evans, a delegate from Rochdale, the meeting, and urged them to stand firm, at the same time stating there was no probability of the question being settled.—The Chairman said that to avert the evil now pending steps had been taken to establish co-operative weaving sheds, and urged all to assist in carrying out so de sirable so object. —James Ashton moved, and William Cliff seconded, a resolution, which was unanimously carried, pledging the meeting to adhere to the Bolton standard believing it to be only a fair remuneration for their labour. An address has also been issued by the Power-loom Weavers' Association, appealing to the public for Aid iu resisting the attempt to reduce their wages, and "to defend the labour of the loom from the avariciousness of the manufacturers of this district." The operative spinners and self-acting Waders having received notice for a reduction of 5 per cent., have held a meeting on the subject. The general opinion is, from the divided opinion amongst the employers as to the neeessity for a reduction, that a turn-out will take place. During Monday and Tuesday the whole of the operative weavers of Blackburn, with a very trifling exception, re bared to their looms, in pursuance of a resolution adopted at the meeting of last Thursday night. There are not at the present time more than 500 weavers unemployed. In Blackburn and the surrounding distrkt a remai liable change for the better has eccerred, The whole of the weavers of Moot Harwood and pert of those at Church, Richton, and Lower and Over Darwin, have returned to their looms. The gnat bulk, however, of the Derwen operatives are still out.

The anniversary anniversary dinner of the Marine Society took place at the London Tavern yesterday night. The chief object of this society is to provide for the equipment, maintenance, and instruction of poor sod destitute Ws" be trained for the Royal Navy, her Majesty's Indian nifYY, the merchant service, or the fisheries.

F. Thempooa, mater of the Groefire Com pany. The company was not very numerous. After the customary loyal toasts the noble and gallant MAMMAS proposed that of the " Army and Navy." He alluded to the important question lately raised about the best kind of ships for our navy. The - application of iron plates was quxte a novelty, but he would express hie own decided conviction that ships ought to be plated with Ira, to resist the fire of heavy artillery. The next question wen, could ships be constructed to any iron plates, sod yet capable of being navigated in bated monies. He should my there could be no doubt of it ; he was confi dant that an sron-pkted ship could be made to float as well as a wooden one, so long as the water w.cs kept out. It depended on the construction of the ship, and whether that gave floor enough to °any the weight. It door enough were given, there would be floating power to c irry the weight required, outside or inside. Another great question then arose. We bad constructed • powerful navy of wood, and now we were suddenly cal upon to cease the conotrustios of wooden ships, and commence building iron- Oated ships. What then was to become of the existing stock ho. trade? Was it all to be lost? He (Lord Hardwicke) would IsYr-No, not a tit of it should be lest. The lam ships we had were constructed to carry a certain weight, having two or three decks: Me would at ow* proceed to raze all those slips, and put the iron plates on their sides, to the same descant of weight as they had borne on their , ' upper decks, and so be would reader then" efficient frigates. But he would nut spend another shilling on • . wooden ship, if he could control the Admiralty expend& ture ; for depend upon it, all the money so spent would be thrown away. It was a great and sudden revolution, but henceforth there would be an end of the usefulness of wooden men.of-war as instruments for the defense of our . country. lf, however, the course which he recommended , were to be taken, we should in two years have a fleet iron meals of such tremendous magnitude and power that no nation would be able to cope with ws at as. and every new ship to be constructed hereafter should be , : as imp as might be convenient for the purpose for which It was designed. The country which should take this new • eyes= flee in hand, and which should vigorously carry it, into eteentiou, would enjoy for ten years to come the pm-eminence at sea. Admiral Bownts, 0.8., who acknowledged the toast, re.. marked that from the esample of this aociety . we might see the advantage of taking growing boys, awl truning them for the nit , by which system, in • few yeah, many of young men would be added to the service, who would do better than the sort of persons now obtained by offering high bounties—persons whom it was too often ne afterwards to get rid of. The navy might be sup plied by su training boys, with greater eeoucauy and better effect. At this period of the festivities, the bor t in their sailor drew, having come to tows from the society's school on board the Venus frigate at Woolwich, were marched into the room, to the sound of fife and drum ; they were ranged all round the tables, obedient to the boatswain's whistle, and gave three tolerable cheers. After this the Chairman proposed the toast of " Prosperity to the Marine Society." He alluded to its origin and formation in the year 1756, when the Duke of Bolton soeght the assistance of Sir John Fielding, the police magistrate, to man the Barfieur, a line-of-battle ship, which ht a grace had been appointed to command ; and by his co-operation, with the benevolent aid of Mr. Jonas Hanway and Mr. Walker, of Lincoln's-mail, an institution ens set on foot to enable destitute boy. to be prepared for the naval service. Since the society was chartered, a hundred years a.to, it had sup plied no lees than 95,000 boys to the Revel Navy and the merchant marine. The Admiralty had been induced to give the use of a government ship for their training wheal. Besides the education of ohil&en for the sea, this society had a trait fund for the relief of the widows of captains and lieutenants, and another sum of money, producing 5001. a year, applied to fitting oat poor girls and boys and plating them out to proper trades. Such were the objects and operations of the society, which certainly deserved public support as much as the other charities of Loudest, and he strongly recommended it to the liberality of his fellow-countrymen, as a beneficent in stitution, connected with the most important national interests. The tout was very cordially responded to, sad a list of new subeeriptions was read. The health of Lord Bardwicke was proposed by the Earl of Romney, and duly acknowledged. The musical entertainmeete, conducted by Kr. (lenge, included "Toes Tough," sung by Mr. Burger, sad other appropriate performances. THE MIRES AFFAIR. The Monikur contains the following report to the Emperor from the Minister of Justico, cower:gag the a ff air of : " Paris, March 4. " Sire,—A judicial act with which public attention is greatly occupied has recently taken place. On the requi sitions of the Procureur-Imperialof the Tribunal of First Instance of Paris, the Milker Mires has been arrested. This measure, which was called for by the gravity of the charges against him, and the importance of the interests compro mised, has made a peat sensation. It has given ries to several judgments in the courts of law, and, as always happens in such cases, calumny has endea voured to increase its proportions. The rumour pre vaiht that by acts of suspicious generosity, Mirds has been able to create fur himself protectors suffi ciently powerful to save him- -if the accusations against him should be verified—front the chastisement of justice ; that third parties, whom their situations not only inter dicted from touching gains which caunot be avowed, but even from engaging in the legitimate operations of com merce and manufactures, clandestinely associated them selves to his destiny ; that the evil is so general, and so peat that the government, at the risk of mein the guilty, has 'resolved to smother the affair, preferring rather to avoid a scandal of which the results are incalculable, than to expose the sores created by corrvptiun. These assertions implicate in such a way the honour of justice and of the government, that I think it necessary to point them out immediately to your Majesty • but I do so, not bemuse I feel the necessity Of defending the magistracy against suspicions of connivance or weak nem, for the public conscience disavows such an insult on them. Everybody in Frame—friends, enemies, and in different—knows and proclaims that no consideration turns aside the magistrate front his duty; that before him, as before the law, all citizens are equal ; and that, though be exercises with moderation and reserve his redoubt able ministry, the guilty never escape his action, entertain ing as he does the salutary idea that if the necessities of re mession are at times painful, the impunity of recognised faults is a dishonour fur justice and a danger for society. But what cannot be tolerated is that an upright government should be accusal of the design of acting a veil over acts which are subjected to the severities of the penal code. I would confine myself, if public opinion had need be reassured against such suppositions, to repeating the terms in which your Majesty at the moment the prosecution commenced traced the conduct of the magistracy. ' I desire that in this sad affair justice shall probe things to the bottom reso lately, and without any personal considerations. Suspicion now floats over everybody, and the innocent are consequently I compromised in a general accusation which does not desig nate the guilty. It is iudispensablethat light Abell be thrown on the affair.' Sire, the magistrates are acting inconformity with your intentions. The investigation is being made with • scrupulous care, and with patience which no obstacles dis concert. All the accounts, all the papers are subjected to a severe examination. Nothing will escape the investigatioos of justice, and light will be thrown on the affair. If, con trary to my expectations, the aocteations which party spirit has raised, and which are spread by inconsiderate sod malignant persons, do not fall before the investigations com menced, justice will not fail in its minion.—l am, &c., " INLIANGLX.. RBP.RESIINTATION OF BODMIN. Considerable excitement was created at Bodmin on Tuesday by the announcement that ou, of the members for the borough, the Hon. Edward Fioderick Leveson Gower, had resigned his seat 'tad accepted an invitation to be nominated for Ssitherlandshire, which constituency is now vacant by the succession of his relative, the Marquis of Sta ff ord, to the dukedom of Sutherland. During the course of the sfternooa Mr. Edward W. Cox, of the Western Circuit, and recorder of Falmouth, Penryn, and Holston, telegraphed to Bodntin that be would be a candi date for the vacant seat. Mr. Con unsuccessfully contested Tewkesbury ma • moderate conservative in 1857, bat he obtained only 25 votes on that occasion. Hs has also, we believe, offered himself to the electors of Taunton, in which town he has been a resident. It was rumoured in Bodmin on Tuesday night that Mr. John 'l remayne, of Hellion, who appeared as • candidate at the last general election, but retired without going to the poll, would come forward. The fact that Mr. Tre mayne--whoes father was for many yenrs representative in the conservative interest for the Eastern Division of Corn wall, has recently allied himself to the family of Lord Vivian, who is a whig, will, it is thought, give him • fair . chance of being returned. The electors favourable to the return of this gentleman believe that there is little doubt of his complying with a memorial that may be presented to him to contest the seat, inasmuch as at the last election he dressed that he would try his fortune on another occasion. The Hon. Captain Vivian, who unsuccessfully contested Truro at the last general election, and who also put out an address to the electors of Bodmin, is likewise spoken of as a candidate. There is certain to be no lack of applicants for the vacant place, Bodmin being one of thee boroughs of con venient size which are always looked upon with favour by the aspirant to parliamentary honours.
