Mr. SCOVELL thought it improper in address the bishop under present circumstances. Something more than mare stigeette was neeimery in the present obis. The Bebop of London was the father of those changes which had entered into the church of England in many paces; and now, when he found public opinion against him, he entered • mild protest —a very gentle eavmt, against those popish ceremonies which be had himself bean instrumental in introducing. Even in his recent chug. , the bishop still declare t himself La favour of the teethed° prised*, of not earned too far. Under a ll the decentness, be felt jus tified in moving an amendment, to the offset that, in tonal deration of the recent charge of the Bishop of London, the mestieg neonatally disclaimed addressing the bishop in the way proposed. (Herr, hear.) Mr. KR ' , OSTER emended the einendment. Mr. SPACIER, M.D., suggested that they were met I. take the necessary steps to oppose the present igoreesion of popery, and for this purpose ft appeared to him they were hound to avail themselves of all the modes open to them ; and in addreuing the bishop, which woe one of theme be taw noting that could composing them La any way. (Hear, hear.) Mr. J. PRESTON coceidered that the emotion had been placed on too narrow a basis. They were met today, as he understood, on the broad ground of prota nudism, and not as the repreeentaiives of diff , rent smirches, or as different section of the same church, but a. members of the one great protestant church, to defend that church, mod to protest against • grow, meet outrageous, and mod unjustifiable aggression on the protestant principles of this land. (Hoar, hoar.) He did not think the past exercise of the biskop's ialluence bad been such as to justify them to look with any degree of con fidence to him to suppress those violations of the recognised forms of protestant worship which had of late prevailed in too many of the churches in his dioosse, and for that noon, if for n, other, he should join in the amendment. A PARISHIONER suggested that the Archbishop of Canterbury, who had at all times proved himself the firm :Head of the protestant chinch, wee the proper person to address. -- Mr.BERKINS must persist in his reeolution, considering that the blau,)p of the dimes was the party to address. Mr. H. HAINES spoke strongly against the apathy of the Bishop of London, woo had been sleeping at his post when he, as a protestant bishop, ought to have been active is op posing tractarian influences, and putting a stop to the Inno vations I. the mode et celebrating public wonhip in the churches under his control. The bishop seemed to think that the income he drew from the chureh—an income lar create/ than that possessed by many sovereigns—woe given to him for his own personal benefit only, and not for the benefit of the church, or he would ha ve instituted proceed. laps against the Rev. Mr. Bennett and other clergymen who had been endeavouring to engraft upon the worship of the protestant church ell those empty forms and ceremonies which characterised the Romish worship. Condemning, hoverer, the negligence, or worse than negligence, which the bishop had so long evinced in the perform ance of his duties, he could not agree that it would be proper to insult him by passing him over and addressing the arch bishop. tie thought as the bishop had come forward at ength to defend the protestant religion against thei Dreads of popery, they should do all they could to encutrage him in his present course. Meat) There were many puts of the ate charge in which all proteetanta must agree, but the amendment condemned the whole. (Cries of "No.". Mr. BCOVELL inriustieed tact that was not his intention. Mr. RAISES—But that would be the effect it it were passed in its praint tons. (Rear:: He wu quite ot opinion that had there been nothing more than a cry ot " No p pm," the bishop would have slumbered on but the entrance of soother bishop into his diocese had aroused him to action. (Rear.) But whetter' the caste let him not want couragement to his endeavours to c srry out that which was the common object, via ,'firm and determined resistance to papal aggression. and the denunciation of the semi-popery of tractarianism. (Hear, hear.) Mr. SCOVELL would prefer to withdraw his amendment and meet th e original resolution with a direct negative. The amendment having been withdrawn the original mot.on, adopting the 'Press, was corded by 23 against 9. Toe R v. Dr. FtErcHea (preshyterian), who took occaeion to enprees his grit flesseion at the union of all !ac tions of the protestant church in defence of the crest princi• pies of christianity, moved a resolution of thanks to Lord .1. Russ.ll for his letter to the Bishop of Durham, and for the firm determination therein expres,td to vindicate and uphold the peer wive of the crown and the right, of the Protestant Church, and of the nation against the unprecedented arro gance of the Bishop of Rome. (Hear, hear.) He thought there was a charm in the name of Austell. He could not forget that in the reign of a popish king e weating a protestant mask, Charles 11., a Militia had shed his blood in defence of our proteseant institutions, and he rejoiced to find that, not withstanding the innervating influences of atistocracy, the family had not degenerated. (Hear, bear.) Mr. Braciii, M.D., seconded the motion—Agreed to. ST. BOTOLPH WITHOIIT.—The inhabitants of Sr. Botolph Without, Ableregate, and of the liberty of Glasse hoime-yard, mumbled last evening at We National Pack ington Schools, Charterhouseeiquare, in compliance with a notice signed by the minister and churchwardens, for the purpose of cnusiderioa the recent paped &Igen/nun." The Rev. W. C. F. Webber presided A lutes of resolutions e indernuatory of the eggiessiva measures of the church of Rome, together with • loyal addri se to her Majesty, were adopts 1, sad the proceedings closed with the usual Tote of thanks to the chairman. BILLINGSGATE WARD.—A general wudmote of the inhabitants of this ward, convened on a requisition aimed by 34 firms and inhabitants, and addreend to the alderman of the ward, was held yesterday at Fellowship nail, 8:.

Penens was held at the Old Vest/proems of the perish, in Oudon-square, at.d an eddreu to the Queen, tendering their sedan support of any measures which her blejesty might see fit to adopt for the purisme of preventing the attempted usurpation of her supremacy by the see of alms was unanimously carried. MEETING OF THE CLERGY IN STAF- FOUDSLIIILE. LICHtIILD, Nov. 12. A meeting of the clergy of the archdeaconry of Stafford, convened by Dr. Hodson, the archdeacon, was held in the Guildhall of this city this afternoon, the object being to consider the recent introduction of a h' by of the Roman catholic church into this country. Dr. HODSON presided, and thus were present between four and five hundred of the clergy, including the dean sad other digni. varies of the cathedral. _ . The lii;;:alailtilAN said that the reheat bull of the Bishop of Rome was of so extraordinary a character that protestant clergymen could no longer remain silent; they must, on the other hand, show that they were determined not to succumb, but to units determinedly, manfully, and perseveriagly in resisting this daring act of papal aggression, at the same time showing that, whilst they were resolved to be true to themselves, they possessed a proper spirit of for bearance, and could afford to love their bitterest enemies And whilst they pitied the delusions of the priests of the Roman catholso church let them take all proper steps to counteract their measures, at thews. time besisubieg God to pour down a spirit of repentance and enlightenment upon the Pope and his cardinals. (Applause.) He deplored the fact that too many of their own brethren in the apostolic church had shown themselves to fall into the lap of Rome; he hoped, however, that now the desiess of the Ronsish church had been brought to light, and the muk thrown aside, many who had lingered oa the threshold of H marline would return to the bosom of the tens shack. The rev. gentleman ooaladed an eloquent address by exhorting the clergy to be 'Medial in the present crisis of those man tis] prineplos—union and ((Rhea/sae. The Venerable ARCHDEACON nut toad • copy of the proposed address to her Mejsa on the subject.

It further entreated her Majesty to slop wok smarm se, without in any degree infringing nem She pls. olploe of civil and religious liberty might peolest Ram and the country from the aggressive polity Mite pop, and from the attack made thereby on the liberties of the people. The Hon. and Rev. ARTHUR TALBOT mind the adoption of the address to the crown. He meld that judging by the Papal reseript the Bishop of lefts had looked upon the English people not as hatellas, bat had regarded the island as tee land of infidelity. (Bear.) The Ceara of Rome bad cur been I. direct to the Church of Ragland; a direct hostile step W now been takes, and it was for them, es ministers of the Holy Apo.. tolls Church, to meet that aggremion by a movement equally hostile in its diameter.

Mr Humphreys again attended for the prosecution; Mr. Woutner and Mr. Oldham for the Heathers and Lily. It was stated that none of the property had been discs• med. but it 4 en; posed by the officers that the whole of it le still in the possession of the prisoners. Mr. Humphreys applied to his worship for another n aiad. He stated that he had no further evidence to offer is the ease at present, but he thought, at a (stark period be should be able to produce other evidence. Clinton, in hie cows salon, stated, that he let two men into the premises, and that Gardener was one of them. The other man alluded to by the errand boy had not been found. They were now endeavouring to apprehend that person. He thought be should be prepared to conclude the case by next week. Mr. Wontner offered no objection to a further remand, as his clients wished for a strict invemigation. lie hoped the magistrate would release hire.

A summary of the tonowing appeared in part of cur tope's-ion yesterday: DeIiHAY, TUNIDAT.—A melancholy catutropho occurred yeste-dey at the Houghton-pit, sear Newbottle, in this county, by an ezplosion of fire-demp, whereby 26 men and boys were kilted. Toe pit is the property of the Rail of Durham, and Is venuisteo by means of two shafts, an up cast and downcast one. Mr. Rutherford is the viewer, and the general condition of the mine was considered good. At the Lime at the explosion there were 150 men and boys in the pit, engaged in the Ted toe working*. Toe explosion was sudden. A loud report was heard, which reverberated through all the working*, and was soon indicated at " bank" (a tern applied to the entrance of the shalt). The air-nurses were In many places compbsely destroyed, and the direction of the current ettaaged. Tres occurred between 6 and 6 o'clock, but it was pistil before it was possible to penetrate the workings, when the noise of voices was knurl in a di. minion about 400 yards from the bottom of the shaft, which clearly showed there were some survivors of the melancholy oecurrenee. The men employed in the arduous and den genus duty of eap.oration, on learning this redoubled their exertions, notwithstanding their comparatively exhausted strength, awl, alter many deeds of hc ' point and personal daring, they succeeded in reaching • part of the mine where the atmospheric air circw lotted, and there 120 men and buys were found alive, and remised from • fate which had seemed inevitable. From the statement of one of then survivors it appears that the men were engaged at their work when they heard the notes, end they rustled simultaneously towards the shaft. bat they had not proceeded for when they met with the chokedamp, on entering which many of them tell, saes to rite no more. Oa observing this those not so for in minuet became stationery, or retreated for • few yards, where they found the air good. Tiny soon discovered that tiny were hemmed in by a body of chokedamp, to pass Dm ugh which would have been Im possible; for any of them, oar attempting to enter it bat a few yards, were overcome, and would have fallen had they not nastily retreated. On consulting together it was con sidered the safest plan to remain where they were, sad trust to the newness that would be made to reach them from the shalt by earryiag in th e air; and they did so remain ter be tween ars and six hours, maul their delivery wee ffeated. It is impassible to pourteey the condition of these poor men during this long and fearful period, or convey any adequate conception of their joy and gratitude on berg rescued from such extreme peril and restored to their anxious and mourn ing friends, who gathered round the piemouth, awaiting in silence and resignation the return of each exhausted party from the poisonous atmosphere of the workings. Twenty-six persons perished, most of them by at tempting to get through the ehoke-damp towards the shaft. Several were burnt. Some were found without heads, others without legs or arms; portions of the same body were found in different and distant place., 'Lowing the violence of the fire. It Is impossible to tell with anoint, where the Are originated, so great is the havoc made in its vicinity, end the men working near it were blown tea gnat distance. The principal portion of the sufferers are rolly boys and waggon-men. One of the freemen was in the pit at the time, end, on honing the explosion, he ran In the direction whence the noise proceeded, in order to ascertain the cause, when he met the rush of the fire, and death of leonne soon terminated his stony. His body was found • calcined mw . The event has created • deep sensation throughout the district, and thousands have visited the locality from • distance. ankles inquiries, and dwelling with painful interest on the dreadful details. A coroner's inquest has been formally opened on the bodies of the unfortunate sufferers; but the Inquiry cannot be pro. ended with until a communisation has been made to the Secretary of State for the linme Department, according to the provisions of a late act. After viewing the bodies, there fore, the coroner will give en order for their interment, and adjourn the inquest.

Yeats: ls t evening the iehabitaate of the above united es aseentoled in the sebool.roo mi of Christ's Hopi to adopt a memorial to the Queen, against papal I doWasogro; the Rey. 11110hAnL Gums, M.A., vicar and rotor, is the arr. The CHAIRMAN, in operas the preendiar, said he I reseed that whatever reeolutior might be proposed would be adopted anarrerly. The levitation' to seised was Confined to those who were opposed to papal domination, and if any purrs present wens in favour of It, they might, of course, carreae a mourn to express their sentiments. The Norio" of their mering.was • ball hoed from Rome, which was eqalvalent to an act of parliament In this 'Pantry. Use., then, wore two rival sovereigns; for it wee Impassible to drew a jest distinction between the tem poral and the spritaal power of the Pope. In getting possession of the etiaseience the Pops pot possession of the whole nos. (Hoer, bear.) That the Pope claimed supre macy was clear, frees the pastoral letter of Cardinal Wise rasa, la whir, writing to catholic', he told them that in denying the Pope's supormaey, they would cease to be natbo- Bee. The Pope's claims to supremacy could pot be 'sta b:imbed either by scripture or by history. The eland - in might be considered either as a religious or as a national one. Oa the two previous Sundays he bad 'hewn them that the Pope's supremacy could not be established by scripture, and was therefore le be rejected, and that In proportion LS this coun try had cosatenanced and favoured popery, it had sunk in the scale of asthma, and is proportion as it had thrown off hi* supremacy, it had risen in peace, honour, and prosperity. (Cheer.) They were all prone to throw the Masse of any evil spa others. He did not mean to deny that certain poems wen blameable. But was there no beam in their own eye) Let them ask the Pope himself, what had led to his act? Did he say it was the onduct of eer ier members of the Church of England ? Partly it might be; bat Ist them hear what the Pope himself said on the subject. He spoke of the removal of certain obstacles which had hitherto prevented the establishment of his supremacy. He referred to the whole state of catholicism is England. What was that? Is the beginning of this century, there were 60 popish chapels in England ; on the let of Juutary,thia year, there were 687 chapels,2l in course of erection, and 788 prima, besides those unattached; la Scotland, 93 dive's, 26 additional stations where papal ser vice was performed, and 111 priests. There were 10 is alleges In Hi gland, 1 in Scotland, 81 convent., and 11 religious houses for men; in the colonise 46 papal bishoprics; in Ire land 27. Humanly speaking this must have required • large expenditure of money. Had not the Pope, as a prince, robbed his own subjects to reconvert England: to popery ? (Hear, hear.) N Wire but a deed of the highest audio. rides could be an obstacle in the way of the exercise of the Pope's supremacy ; an 1 he could cot bat think that the Pope bed seen certain (tentacles removed. He had no wish to in troduce party polities, but he could not help observing that in Ireland there wag a college where the Pope's press had been endowed out of the national funds, Was not that a national recognition of popery ? Could the Pope, with such an act before him, think that the nation still regarded popery as idolatrous ? Must he not have thought " the nation no longer sou cause to protest against popery?" (Haar, bear.) There was another oriole to the Pope's supremacy which had been removed. The imposition of pains and pen alties against wry after the reign of Mary were inten ded by our forefathers for their own defence. Tle.y remained on the stetute book until a recent period. By the 9th aud 10th Vic: , chap. 69, they were repealed, and is particular he must mention the 13th Elizabeth, chap. 2, by which the punishments for introducing bulls were annulled, trough the act still remained Meisel, being now • misdemeanour. Here was acother obstacle which had fallen off, and he need not tell them that when a punish. aunt was removed, the crime again.t whiith it had been director' usually increased. Let them all unite to uphold their protestant f,ith and their protestant Queen. He con . c:uded by reading the memorial which had been drawn up for adoption. Mr. GILPIN, treasurer of Christ's Hospital, moved its adoption. He said he could not but feel that the interests of 'hat hospital were involved in the conduct of the Pope. lie implored them to resist this eggrerion. If they could do earthing by means of peso and amity let them do so, but at all events let them with all their hearts and souls resist this attempt. The Rev. Dr. RICE, the head mister of the hospital, said he came before them on that oecuion with a maiden speech ; for although he had been head master of that insti tution for thirty two years, he had never borer taken part in any public moment. They were all brought there by conscientious feelings in reference to themselves, their chil dren, and their country. Should popery recover its hold in this country, how could he look upon 1,500 boys issuing forth into the world without alarm? (Hear, hear.) He had bean salted by Intelligent mew, of what consequenee was the step which the Pope had taken. "He was," said they, " Vfr sr-Apostolic before, and he is now called Arch bishop of Westminster what does that matter ?" History taught them that it did matter—(hear. hear)—and that such an act was fraught with important consequences. The ours now adopted by the Pope was different from that which he usually pursued—it was openly arrogant. In his (Dr. Rice's) °pram, he had been blinded ' by the conduct of many of his brother clergymen—(hesr, bear)—who had carried their imitations and mimicries of popery to such an went as to lead the Pope and other weak-minded men to think that England had lost its sense of the value of true religion. (Hear ' hear.) He agreed with the chairman that they were not nationally innocent. Mr. WOOD objected to Rome of the phraseology in this memorial, but declared that he was as much opposed as Key one to papal domination. He deprecated the reimposition of pains and Fatuities, and would like to see any remaining restrictions on liberty of conscieuce removed from the statuto book. Popery was to be opposed, not by pains and penal ties but with the truth. Let them look out for the wretched and degraded, and bring the truth home to them. He occluded by proposing an amended memorial, in accordance with the tear of bis remarks. Mr. APPLBYARD seconded the amendment. On a show of 1. ands the original motion was carried almost unanimously, only two hands being held up in favour of the amendment. Mr. Deputy EAGLETON moved a resolution to the effect that Lord John Russell should be requested to present the memorial to her Majesty. Mr. SIBELY seconded the resolution. He said he could not but tangled the mover of the amendment, who had spoken in praise of the Bible, that had no pains and penalties ever been enforced, he would not have enjoyed the admen tape of it. (Hear, hear.) There were some persons who told them that Roman Catholics, however cruel formerly, were now bootee mild and lamb-like in their dispositious. Let those who thought so refer to the documents issued by the Pope. Is a book used by papists, Thomas A'Be:kett taught that heretics—and all present were included is that term—might lawfully be put to death, alleging, as the reason, that as a false coiner forged money, so heretics forged the faith, and disturbed the atate. He doubted whether here ties disturbed the state at present so much as Cardinal Wiseman. (Hear, hear.) He strongly censured the con duct of the Bishop of Linden. That right reverend prelate bad sp then in his recent charge of the papal church being a branch of the churn of Christ, however impure. Did they all a person who had robbed them "a bad faithful man ?" Surely bishops might to know batter. (Cheers and laughter.) The resolution was carried unanimously. A vote of thanks was given to Mr. Gilpin for the use of the room. A vote of thanks, whisk was seconded by Mr. PEICCIPa, a gentleman of the Jewish persuasion, was given to the chairman. It was resolved that the proordior should be advertised in the Times, he Daily News, the Morning Herald, and the St James's Chronicle. The meeting wound up its proceedings by giving three times throe cheers for the Quo, and one cheer for the vier. ST. STEPHEN, COLEMAN-STREET. Yesterday, a meeting of the ratepayers and in habitants of this parish wu held in the vestry room of the parish church, to take tato considered= the propriety of forwarding a memorial to the Bishop of London on the pre sent crisis of the Protestant church and other matters in re lation thereto, and to resolve on a vote of thanks to Lord John Russell for his truly patriotic letter to the Bishop of Dothan. The chair wu taken by the senior churchwarden. The CHAIRMAN believed that most of those present were aware that it we intended at the lut meeting that a memo rial eboald be agreed to, end a vote of thanks d, to Lord John Riese% at that the matter went off on a point of order, no notice having been given of those objects, No one could doubt the strides making by the Romish chnreh in this etractry—nor could they believe that the character of that =or= for intolerance had changed; it was tharetens the more incumbent to meet the attempts now makiejte keg this country under the spiritual subjection of the Y. He concluded by calling= Mr. PERKINS, who rem to move the Ant stedetion, "That an address be presented to the Ili= iit a Lendon, =peeing the plumate of the muds% at kis lord ship'. opinions,as expressed la his ream 'beim IMP. ed to the insidious movement nth* Risky et An" MS no tes on ft against the Tonnes hews et wends Ithitykatwo duced in some of our churebee, end psegied his Imahlp to use hi. endeavoun in taminedsg lielh gambit end an seriptural innovations la pith weee s ; denesseled the Romish Church he die whisk hell been given to thou of her to enbuit the established at the Reforineths, he relitmed to the of the Tractarians in men of our embswelltra ameba VI having given enoouregemeat Is the Fenn attemph at papal aereedon. Mr. W &DDINGTON mended the menaced. He was bras.d to say that the chugs meth by the inn of liessies sows vean ego—the autberltadve prepublems mode by the bishop in that charge, had been the ears et man of what had followed. But the bishop had at length sees lb serer, and was anxious to remedy the evil he had been hem mental in creating ; and all he t it:7d was, that Ms mgr W had not h not come too late. (Hear.

He hoped that, In future, wiser counsels would pre veil—that the church would have that support which the circumstances of the times required, and that thereby those palatal secossions from =saga her (amide would no longer be whammed. The Rev. Mr. CALDWALL, tutor of Stafford, seconded the adoption elate addreesto the bishop, and the archdeacon was about toput it, but his purpose was staysi by the ex. citement into which the meeting had then lapsed. This repost is necesearily a meagre one, bat it appeared that some sentences in Mr. firealey's speech had trespassed on disputed points, and fanned dissatisfaction into a home. la the midst, the Rev. Mr. BARER, rural dean of Stone, rose and read the following by way of addition to the address to the Bishop :—" That it cannot be denied that too much occasion has been g:ven to the Bishop of Rome to entertain confident expectations with regard to this country, partly by the 0011ftlet0111 already made to Roman Catholic prelates by goverement, but still more by the evident tendency towards Roman Catholic practices and doctrines in many of the minietwe and members of our own church, and which has already resulted in the uc. seion ne inconsiderable numbir to the Church of Rome and, aer;ro;e7;e earnestly pray your Lordship to take nett measures in, eonjunctien with your right reverend brethren as may serve effectually to check so dangerous an evil." The rev, gentleman was about to address the meeting, but he was assailed with a voll.y of histess, stamping of the feet, and sheen, so that he was unable to proceed for some time. Atter • stir rt time the archdeacon iaterfrend, and the storm was stayed fer a few minutia. In the interim Mr. Baker said—Allusion has been mode to our 'nuance in par. 'lament ; our enemies are to be found in oar own household. (Cheers and hisses.) The rev. gentleman went on to read an extract from a letter of Dr. Wiseman to Lord Shrews. bury, written some years since, the purport of which was to show that the people of England were ripe for conversion, as was manifested by the conduct of the clergy of the state establishment. During the reading of this extract, the con fusion and expressions of disapprobation increased ; ulti mately Archdeacon Modica interfered, and then the storm having abated, Mr. Baker said—'• I was ordained in this diocese. I have been 25 yens resident here. My family have done much for the church and I thick I ought to have a voice hers." (Applause.) The Rev. Mr. BROAD, of Newcastle, and half-a-dczen other gentlemen, seconded the amendment. The DEAN of LICHFIELD sail, that if such an addition were appended to the address to the bishop ;he feared that it would prevent many of the clergy signing it. The Rev. Mr. EABEIIt, of Burs:eto, suggested a com promise. He advised the withdrawal of Mr. Baker's motion, although (be said) he thought some of Mr. Greeley 's seuticaents rather detestable—[our reporter so understood the spesker] —and he expressed himself in favour of same concessions by churchmen to protestsut dissenters. The Rev. T. D. Atkinson, of Ragely ; the Rev. Mr. Her rho., of Stafford; the Rev, Mr. French, of Borth,; and other gentlemen, took part in the discussion. Ultimately, and with great reluctance, which was shared in by many of the reverend gentlemen present, Mr. Baker consented to withdraw his motion, on the personal solicitation of arch deacon Hodson who paintel out the necessity there was for unanimity, and for merging minor iiifferenres in such a time of trial; at the same time (he said) he thought some of the sentiments uttered by Mr. Cheney rather ill-timed. The address to the bishop was theta put and agreed to; se was also a subsequent sue, caning upon the laity to aid the clergy ie this matter. At five o'clock the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to Archdeacon Hodson, to whose personal influence was attributable the satisfactory termination of the pro. medial/a. MEETLNG OF THE CLERGY AT EXETER. A meeting of the clergy of the Archdeaconry of Exeter took place yesterday, to the Cotlege•ball, convened by the Archdeacon upon requisition, " To deliberate upon what measures shall be taken by them with referknce to the late unprecedented aggrenion by the Bishop of Rome on the rights and liberties of the English Church." At I o'clock Archdeacon J. M. STIVIZNII took the chair. The Rev. Chancellor HARINGTON said,l submit to you a memorial to the effect : 'That the branch of Ct rist'a Holy Catholic Church in Britain wu under the jurisdiction of her own metropolitan, and independent of the See of Rome for flea centuries prior to the uhnion of Saint Audit. " That this independence was urged by the British bishops In their interview with Saint Austin, alt a ground for rotas ing to submit to the usumel supremacy of " That the 6:11 canon of the 0-naval Council of Nice, and the Sib canon of the General Council of Ephesus, demon strate that the claim of authority over tho British church advanced by the Bishops of Rome, is opposed to the de -1 the church, as laid down in the second of her acamunical councils; the Synod of Ephesus enacting, against the aggression of the Bishop of Antioch, upou the province of Cyprus, that the rights which have heretofore, and from the bi ginning belonged to each Romish see, be pre served to it pure and without mtraint, etcording to the custom which has prevailed of old.' "That the papal thraldom, under which the church of England laboured, more or less from the ith to the 16th cen turywas the result of this assumed supremacy of Rome. Tat the Reformation was the means of restoring to the church of England her ancient privilege+, doctrines, disci plias, and government, and of rilieviog her from the multi. rude of errors and the false pretensions of Rome. " That the reformed church of England is, and claims to be, a branch of the church catholic ' in which the pure word of God is preached, and the sacraments duly administered,' by men validly ordained, and thus deriving their commission and authority by an uninterrupted succession from the apostles —a position held by many eminent romaniate, and by the church of Rome herself, at the period of the refor mation. "'That, claiming to be • branch of the holy catholic church, she protests, in the name of the universal church, against the violation of one of its plainest and recognised rules, as laid down in her four general eouncile, ' that there ought to be but one metropoli an in each province, and one bishop in each diocese'—a rule enforced by the council of Carthage (Ain 251) which repudiated the appointment of Roved= to the see of Rome, styled the usurper of the see against the lawful Bishop Cornelius, and ctudemned hint as an adulterer, and • foreigner, and an ambitions usurper of another titan's chair,' who hat been regnlsrly ordained before him—a rule, also, which was conrituted one of the terms of union between the bishop and the Romish clergy at the Council of Hertford, under Theodore, viz., that 'no bishop shall lila else any authority in the diocese et another.' " That the division of the realm of England, by the Pope, into 13 sees, under a metropolitan, and the intention of Popish bishops is sees already filled by English bishops, is not only • direct act of schism, • transgression of a recog nised catholic rule, an insult to the Anglican branch of the church, and en indirect infringement of her independence, bat is also designed to supplant the doctrine, worship, disci pline, and government of the Rsformed Church, within tress, the Quest's dominions, and to lead to the re-intro. auction of all the errors and corruptions from which by God's mercy, this church and realm were delivered at the Rs °rotation. " That the coronation oath binds the Snereign to main tain, to the utmost of hie power, the laws of Ood and that profemion of the Gospel, and the protestant reformed reli gion, established by law, and to preserve to the bishops and clergy of this realm and to the 'thatch committed to their Wars, all such rights sad privileges ea by law do, or shall, appertain sato them or any ot them. " That by Statute 6th of Anne, *lisp.

" That whereas in the language of Lord Kenyon, on the Coronation Oath, it cannot well peas observation that the old system of laws, to the purpose of the present Inquiry, was to be guarded against the possible introduction of rupiah influeasts—and, to adopt the language of the sense distin guished writer, 'so far or regards the sovereign it is guarded by the oath he takes.' " Your petitioners devoutly pray that your Majesty, taking these premises into your royal omaideration, will adopt such =emerge as say couatersetithe Papal encrotriskment devised by Pops Piss ...bed, whist as eltisens and churchmen, we strenuously denounce tam amain.. tame act of aggression upon your Majesty's undoubted prerogative of supeestesy, as Supreme Head of the Church in thew realms, we oleo feel ourselves palled moan, as priests and discuses( the ekerek of Christ, established in this laud, to express our deekted protest spinet the peculiar and distinstive doctrine, and premiers of the ithaech of Rome, as contrary to Gods word and manifestly seeding to the subvenioa ot that pease and happiness, truth and Julio', religion and piety, wake, under your Melostre auspices, we now happily enjoy."

WILLIAM HANSON, Maycr." THE BISHOP OF CHESTER. The fo!fowingTetice --- Biellop Of Cheeter ; e reply to the 'memorial adareseed to him last week by 90 of the clergy of Liverpool and its neighbourhood, headed by the Vene rable Arm:ideation Brooks: Chester, 9 h November, 1850. My dear Archdeacon,—l beg to acknow . .'edge the receipt of an address signed by yourself and a very numerous body of the clergy of Liverpool and its neighbourhood in relation to the recent panel edict: The mild spirit of toleration iu t' is country hns given to the members of the Roman catholic churns' the free swots', of their religious kith ; and so far as real ects the imams,' form of government within their own ennenumen, Lars would probably be no desire on the part of others to interfere with it As lone as the Pope was contented to provide site the episcopal superintendence of the congregations of Raman catholic& in this country by means of vicars spostolic, in tae mode hitherto practised, the proceeding might be regarded as intrinsically confined within the pale of the Rontish church. But the recent edict front the papal see advances a loftier pretension. It makes a putiticn of the realms of England into nerecreated dioceses, over vnich Melvin are appointed to exercise spiritual government. This is apporently in tended u a demonstration retchiag beyond the scanty num bers of the Roman catholic communion, and &fleeting to cover with its it ilurnee the whole realm. It treats our es . . tabliahed church as a nullity, and pretenda tOtaipoeaess ion .— of the country as a spiritual waste. Such pretenaloos will be met with &mons, and reduced to their pro;:er level. We may conti /en'l, rely that, 60 far as the occasion may require, our government and legislature will take effectual care that the royal supremacy and the notional independence shall not suffer richer detriment or indignity. We need not entertain any fear for the covsiquencer. The church of England, appealing to the inspired volume of Scripture as the standard of its faith, will not row relapse into the error, which at the Reformation it renounced, or again b :se to the yoke of spiritual usurpation from which it was thin freed. The Bible is in the hinds of our people. It is in the Bible, God's word, not in papal bitten sent from Rome, that they will look for the rule of their obedience and toe foundation of their trust. The part especially pertaining to ourselves is to labour that, throrgh the blessing of God's grace, we may be feithfol ministers of that word, in its simpl'eity, Pe parity, its truth ; • exerting individually all our efforts, in our respective spheres of duty, in the public services et divine worship, in the pastoral visitation of the people, In the re gions education of the children of the poor ; acting nib union and concert among ourselves ; marking plainly and uncom promisinitly the broad line that separates the churches of England and Rome from each other; upholding erenti ously the supremary of the Queen and the principles of the Protestant faith ; yet still pre,. tying the spirit of Chi istien charity towards those who's pretensions it is our duty to mist. It you and the rest of the clergy shell join in a declaration expressing your devoted loyalty to our gracious Queen, and your zeal for the maintenance of the Royal supremacy, and of the rights of the established church, you will have my cordial sympathy. I beg you will aunts the clergy of my affiectionete regard ; and I remain always truly your!, J. CRAUTiIi. The Venerable Archdeacon Brooks. CARDINAL WISENAN.—The announcement in yes terday's paper of the sudden and unexpected arrival of Car dinal Wiseman in the metropolis occasioned considerable in• area among catholic. and protestant', and at an curly hour • large number of respectably attired persons, of both persuasions, assembled round St. George's Chapel, in the expectation of catching a glimpse ot the newly meted arch ' bishop, and many, anticipating that he would officiate during the early morning service, entered the edifice ; but they were doomed to disappointment, as the cardinal not only did not attend the service, but had not arrived at his temporary residence up to the departure of those who were induced by curiosity to attend. Ezactly et 11 o'clock, hotenvir, a private carriage, drawn by a pair of grays, was driven to she entrance of the clergyman's residence attached to St. Cleorse's Chapel, from which the cardinal alighted, attended by his chaplain, who carried a small leather portmanteau and a large packet of letters. His eminence, who appeared in excellent health, was enveloped in a large blue cloak, and had • superbly ti.:aind Roman missal in his hand. WESLEYAN NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION.—Yesterday his Honour Master Kindersley was engaged from II o'clock till 4 In going into the proof of creditors claims against this estate, as brought in by Mr. Goodchap, the official manager, and for pitying off the liabilities, which are cwaiderable.
