A letter has been addressed to the Archbishop of Canterbury by the Bishop of Exeter, in which, after correcting an error in his publiiihrd letter, as to there being no edition of Ballinger's "Decades" subse quent to that of 1677, in the sixteenth century, the right rev. prelate goin on thus: There is another matter on which I avail smeller this opportnaity to 'meet a great misappesbensim. I understand that it has bees said that we of my senneel, in addeemins the judicial committee, staled that the Bishop told Mr. Gotham that if he would stag be bad no istentioa to publish the questions, answers, sad eorrespendence„ thou the examination mieht ease at the point where they bed arrived. It Mr. Cliebam bad mit, teethe would plainly answer the question', and let the meter real Mere, then their lordships would probably nester have board of the reseint eosin:welly, and Mr. Gorham would of that museum Aare been re:tor of Branford Speee." Os the very day on which the learned moused was re ported to Inca sold tint, or something to the same ant, I remoastrated with him, sabering said it without my Jeanie. lions or astboriry, and matter! , to my wish, se well as to what bad really been intteded by me. Es rained as that what he bad said had been greatly misapprehended, sad very incorrectly reported to me. What was really said by me to Mr. Goyim on this Ratter will be feud in the fallowing passages at Kr. Ciorhaea's published senses of the examinotioa. Atli. 114, lemedlately before Q LXI., is what follows: "no Bisbee : I have no lassffistion is swim that say rams ke tilting whether Mr. Gorham intends to publish what he pared is this examination, and for my stating that if there he such intention, or it the intestion be not dis. Mimed, I must tontines the examination, is this: that the 'setter is not sufficiently invest'gand to enable me, in that me, to take tbe course which I may be now prepared other wise to take, without my seeming teaser* forborne to place before lir. Gorham several coneiderations which ought, in my jinigment, to be weighed and answered by him." At p. Hi is the following passage, in a letter of mine to Mr. ficwhasa : " To what you say of my avowed roams for continuing the ozaminstiou on the fourth and nikerques.t days, namely, t►at I ►ad the impression of your iaten•ioa to publish what bad passed or might pass, I answer: That 1 hoped to bring t►e examination to a close in a manner favourable to you, on your 'making (as I expected that you would make) some Neutral qualiflostion of your statement.; but that I felt it to be impossible to tat this course oa your &raining to dis claim the purp.es of publication." I now solemaly aver to your graft that I had no intention whatever of institutieg Mr. 6 rhos', unless oa a fully sa• tiefacto►y qualification of his statement. —I am, my lord archbishop, with great respect, your grace's mast dutiful and faith•ul servant, 11. EXETER. Bishopstowe, March 28, 1850. COUNCIL FOlt COLONIAL BISHOPRICS. The following special report, inspecting the ap pointment of bishop, to the colonies, has just been Issued : The condition of the church in the North American col-- sties, as regards episcopal supervision, demands immediate attention. The diocese of Quebec* extends over the whole of Lower Canada—a territory three times as large as England and Wales. Parishes er missies. (upwards of eighty in all) have b-rn establithed in every part of the country, from the Bay of Game to the Ottawa. For the last series of confirmations, the bishop was compelled to undertake four long and labs Mons j sunny', which occupied him at intervals from the beginning of 1848 to the autumn of 1849, wide, to attend to hie triennial Minutiae, two of the clergy had to travel upwards of 700 miles. The subdivision of this enormous diocese iv therefore a matter of pressing nemuity. The bishop has repeatedly recommended it, the c.ergy unanimously desire it, and the government at home his agreed to sanction the measure, an •00. as an adequate endowment can be provided. For the means of providing that endowment the present appeal 1. made. A capital sum of from 10,0001. to 12,0001., in addi tion to what may be prceurcd in the colony, it is thought might suffice. We earnestly commend this work to all mem bers of the Church of England, and we desire at the same time to remind them that the existing endowments of two of the North American bnbeprics those of Quebec and Nova /Scotia (at present paid out of the imperial treasury), are granted for the live. of the present incumbents, and will be withdrawn altogether at their d. nth or removal. Much has been accomplished within the last few years towards Madding up the Church of El./lead in our c daisies ; and, while the cost has been comparatively soul, the good done by the multiplication el clerey seed the consequent dif fusion of the blessings of Christianity has been incalcula ble. We address ourselves, therefore, with confidence to the great body of our own communion. We entreat their eo-operation in the worn to which we have put our bands. Torn who gave oonations nine years ago may, perhaps, in consideration of what ban already been effected, be induced to renew Moir contribution. We cannot, however, but observe by bow very few persons the wools fund was subscribed. Many more, we cannot doubt, will be rudy to lend their assistance now ; and those who may find it inconvenient to give in one sum all which they wish to give, may greatly promote the purpose fur whi. b the fund has beau opened ' , y annual contrihuti, ns. We are not without tokens that the Divine biessing has hitherto raced upon our undertaking. Its ecd and aim is this extension of the kingdom of our lord and Saviour, and w* ask for it the fervent prayers and the free-yid offerings of all Hie people. Signed by thaw present, J. B. CAXTVAIt.

ACCIDENT ON TUN TIIAMEB.—This morning, no accident occurred near the Essex stain-boat pier, at the bot tom of Essex street, Strand, which was nearly attended with gnat bill of life. Daring the last few weeks a great many men bate been at work on the river driving piles, and forming an enormous building, for the puroose of exhibiting the Chinese junk. The erection, which wee formed almost exclusively of timber, was upwards of 200 feet long, by shunt GO feat wide. The end nearest Ewe-greet, r well se the upper and lower tides, were nearly finieished. Whilst Use men wars proceeding mils their work this morning, a sudden gust of wind blew the whole of the lower side of the erection down. The] men who were under it and upon the ladders were thrown in tier blip confusion amongst each other, and for some few minutes were buried under the piles and boards. The Thames police and a number of watermen instantly put off to render assistance, and the parties wen all extricated, one man only b ing so seriously injured as to require surgical aid. Whilst the men were busily engsgtd collecting together the timbers, the other side of the building fell. Fortunately, no one on that occasion received any injury. It is understood that the placing of the piles at too great a distance from each other was the math of the accident. THE OPPONENTS OF SABBATH BREAKING IN BCOTLAPIII).--411 statistical friend bands us the following as the autistic* of the Sabbath desecration he observed on his return from church last Sunday a few Mantes before four o'clock, walking from the west to the east of Princes•street, Bdiaburgh :—Carriages waiting at Bev.

But, so(t° my nothing of our informant having been a few minutes too early to see the full extant of the iniquity at di* doer of Free St. George's and Sr. Thomas's) he did not pan till the doors were closed at St. John's, where there are seldom' fewer than a down carriages, sad as he forgot to take &prep at the Went Kirk, additions must be made, bringing up the camber to 70, which, allowing 62r two hone conveyances sad for ((admen, gives the total number of ma and horses at about 88! And the tdo, employed at I. set four times In the day, that is, sett.ng down mad taking up at sub of the two services; almost all of them, in fact, being virtually employed all day, and that day, as It hap pened, a bright and settled one, affording no excuse in point of weather. Bighty men and bum employed In a single street for purpose* of mere ostentation, with the cognisance and mainly for the use of the very men who embitter public and social life in Scotland by their clamours against the labour, comparatively of mall amount and unobtrusive quality, required to maintain postal communication and the means of locomotion on the highways of the comatry.—The 5041111112 P.

NawcAsrus-orox-Tymis, /discs 28,—The half yearly pascal Ise at ag at Ms shershenisre is this 03 mpany *sok plus UM albeeman, la the Assembly Rooms. M. Pumusi, Rai n &airmen se Os dkssssn, wee is the chair, and aserly three bemired shanbalden were present, amongst them several membere st parliament, and other inflasadal men. - It tom fully imputed that the director* would be able to anomie* that they had come to some terms with Mr. Hod son with respect to the company's claim upon him for the rent of the line. This expectation had induced the share , holden to assemble from all quarter*. The CHAIRMAN said the accounts which had been ordered co be circulated some days before the general meet ing had been gent to each shareholder, who would have made himself acquainted with them. As was the cue at the last meeting, the directors had no revenue account to lay bef ore the meeting, but the rental with the lessee had to be arranged and settled, end he hoped that tumid be done in a satisfactore manner. He was very glad to tell !them that since the line came again into their possession —from the Ist of 'mousey up to the 16th of the present month—the receipts had exceeded thou of the corresponding period of the last year by 1,7501., and the revenue was progressing in such a way that at the end of the present year it would be much more than in any previous year. (Cheers.) The first busi ness to come before the meeting was the signing of the register of abersholden. The Secretary, J. ADAMSON, Beq., thee lash the sepses al the direstaes as Mewl: H - A - i the last aaniveraery meatier the allmainilant van informed there were two bills before parliament, the one promoted by the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway Company, to enable this company to grant, and the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway Company to accept a per petual lease of this railway, and the other promoted by this company for the mopes of procuring parliamentary sane. Son for deviations in the line of the Alston branch, and for the relinquishment of part of that branch beyond Alston to Nenthead. These bills were produced and read and ap proved o: by the shareholders at a special meeting held far that purpose, but the latter bill only received the sanction of parliament—the bill promoted by the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Company having been thrown out in its last stage. Mr. Hudson being left individually in possession of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway on a lease for three years, from the lit July, 1848, °fired to this company two alternatives, viz., the surrender of the lease at tne end of the put year, unless it should be adopted by the York, New castle, and Berwick Railway Company, er this company, or to enter into a treaty with Mr. Iluuson for an extended term. This offer was brought before an adjourned meeting of the shareholder., held on the 7th November list, at which tt e chairman, having reported from the directors that not anj proposal had been received from the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway Company to adopt the agreement, and that influenced by a conviction that justice could not be done to the traffic of the line by a lease for a short term, and by the feeling teat it would be inexpedient to enter into any permanent agreement with a private individual, the !direc tors recommend the adoption of the first alternative of Mr. Hudson—viz., the acceptance of n surrender of the existing deed or agreement at the end of the then current year. The recommendation having been unanimously agreed to by the shareholders, immediate steps were taken to resume the management of the line on January 1, last, which was done aecortingly, and the subsequent increase in the traffic of the line, as compared with that of last year, is such in to salary the directors of the prudence of the step of re suming the line. Very serious attention has peen paid by the directors to the formation of the Alston branch ; the works are progressing, and negotiation. are and have been going on with the proprietors of the land required, many have been arranged with to the satisfaction of the directors and without the necessity of any appeal to a jury. They fully anticipate en equally satisfactory result with resin et to the rest. Their attention nu also been called to the arrange. meets necessary to be come to with the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway Company respecting the new station at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and several meetings have been held between deputations from the respective companies. It having become necessary to provide for a greater expen diture than was contemplated when tree set for the formed , * of the Alston branch and the extension of the line into the town of Newcastle was obtained, a bill has been intriduced into parliament for that turps's, and for diminishing the number of directors, and ob. tinning some further powers with respect to the arrangements for the General Station at Newcastle, which bill will, in compliance with the rules of parliament, be laid before a special meeting of sharehold ers to be convened for that purpose. The accounts of the company for the year ending the 31st December last have been carefully audited by the gentlemen entrusted by you with that duty, and, having been certified by them, were sent out by the directors for the inspection and consideration of the shareholders previous to this meeting. The directors have, hy advertisement, given notice that it is absolutely neces sary that calls remaining unpaid upon the scrip shares which are unregistered should be immediately intended to, so that they may be spared the disagreeable duty of declaring such shares forfeited; and they take this opportunity of this report being sent to each individual to call attention to this subject. It will be the anxious wish of the directors to complete the Alston Branch and the general station at New ' castle, and finally to close the capital account within as short a period u practicable. The account between the company and Mr. Hudson not having been closed, the directors are not able to recommend the amount of dividend to be deelsred, bat suggest an adjourament for twelve days, within which time they hope that the account may be closed and the balance paid The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report. Dr. COWAN seconded it, but regretted very much to find that the money had not been paid by Mr. Hudson, and that a settlement was egain'to be delayed for twelve days. (Hear.) Hs wished to know wilen it was likely the directors would be enabled to effect a settlement ? The CHAIRMAN replied that they bad in part received monies front Mr. "Indian. and that the present disappoint ment arose out of Mr. Hudson's putting otf the settlement in taut quence of the absence of Mr. Allport, who had managed the line for him, and who au then engaged on some tin portant railway business In London. Several appointments had already been made and broken , but they might depend upon Mr. Allport's meeting Mr. Hudson and the directors, in time to Lave the negotiation completed, so as to make the shareholders acquainted with the result at the adjourned meeting. Dr. COWAN commented upon the management and ac counts, proposing alterations aad amendments; and attributed the high rate at interest on their debentures to the line hay. ing pawed into Mr. Hudson's hands. The CHAIRMAN was glad to state that they had re cently been giving money at 4i per cent. (Hear.) Dr. COWAN advised the speedy completion of the Alden branch, and the central station, with the final closing of the capital account. He hoped that the money bill before par liament would not be passed until submitted to the share holders fur their approval. The CHAIRMAN assured the doctor his suggestions would be attended to, and that a special meeting would be called to consider the proposed bill before it went to the House of Lords. rho report was unanimously adopted, and the auditors and directors re-elected, Dr. Cowan advising considerable reductions in the latter. Dr. COWAN, atter some remarks, proposed the followinx resolution, " That this meeting is strongly opposed to Lord Granville's bill, or to government audit in any form what ever, convinced that it is unnecessary, expensive, and vex atious, and regarding it as an undue interference with the rights of the shareholders." (Loud applause.) Mr. I'. H. HOWARD, M.P., wished to qualify the ex pression " vexatious." Dr. COWAN said when the dividend was delayed they would find it vexatious enough. (Laughter.) Mr. HOWARD had no particular objection to the word, but he thought the resolution very strong and decided with out it. _ _ Dr. COWAN— Not more strong and decided than was necessary for the parliament of the present day. (Laughter.) O. JOHNSON begged to second the resolution, every word of it. (A laugh.) The resolution wee carried unanimously. Mr. MATTHEW BELL, M.P. gave his support to the resolution, observing that he bad geen long enough in par liament to know what parliamentary committees and govern- ment commi.sioners were, aid if they took his advice they would not allow them in icy way to interfere with the ma nagement of their affairs, (Applause.) As the repreeenta tire of that diviaion of the railway world, he should oppose this bill in the House of Commons to the utmost of his power. (Loud cheers.) A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the proceedings. MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN OF IRELAND. ..... The ninth half-yearly meeting of the above com pany was held at the terminus, in Dublin, on Thursday, tar. JOHN ENNIO, the chairman of the company, presiding. The directors' report, adopted on the occasion, contained the following statement': " In submitting to the proprietors the acoounts for the half year ending the Slit December last, the directors have the pleasure of announcing that the receipts exhibit an in crease on those of the preceding six months, while the ex penses of working have been considerably diminished; and that the rail. ay, with the rolling stock, and the canal throughout its whole extent, continue" to be maintained in the best po...ible condition. The first instalment of the government loan has been received, and the vat. &Don of the lands from liullingar to Galway is completed. Contracts have been Mad. on advan tageous terms for the timber and rails required for the whole line; and it is expected that in a very short time paremion will be obtained of ell the land under the provi dons of your special set. Tee disecton gladly embrace this opportueity of 'mentioning the aid which they have received hom the landholders along the line, many et whom have met the directors in the beet possible spirit, and thus enabled them to employ • great many men daring the winter in preparatory works. This liberal course of action has so mach forwarded the company's operations that at present 1849. 85; 141 113 463 k ao as} 711 211 1071 there are upwards of 6,000 men eniployed on the earth works, and the number mil now be increasing daily. The direct tors bare also received the positive meurance from their engineer and contractor that all the works will be easily completed in considerably less time than that contemplated by the act of pa-liament." The engineer's report stated, " The progress of your works beyond Montagu has been very satritactory. The whole of the lands in Westmeath, with ens or two trifling I xcepthne are in the contractor's hands, and he has made Rich effi cient preparations that a very large amount of work can be got through this stammer. In Roscommon and Galway also, though not legally entitled to enter, a conaiderahle portion of the land required has been ceded to u by the proprietors, and a greet deal of week has been done. There are now about isix thousand men employed, and the numbers will soon be largely augmented." The following was the revenue amount for the half year ending Deermber 81st, 1849: Railway Income.

ADMIRALTY INQURY.—PROTOsED NAVIGATION INIritoVIIKENT OP THS Roma ',EA.—Yesterday an inquiry, by direction of the Lords of the Admiralty, who exercise authority ova all tidal waters and navigable rivers, was onened at the King's Arms Hotel is Palacelard, under the Preliminary Inquiry and Local Act of 12 Vict., in con nexion with a plan proposed by the commiuioners of the river Lea for power to introduce a bill into parliament to improve the navigation of that river. and to dispose of i 4 surplus waters in the counties , of Hertford, Ream and Middlesex. Mr. W. Cubitt, C.E., the inspects, appointed by the Admiralty, explained that the object had in view in holding the court was to hear the statements of the pro moters and of those who had objections, to investigate the public and engineering merit+ of the measure, and report them to the Admiralty. There were present a large number of osillowners and landowners interested in the due main tenance of the water powers of their mills, between the mouth of the river at Limehouse, by Tottenham, and up to Hertford and Ware. Mr. Merchant, clerk to the river Lee oommissioners, cited the original act of George the - • Second for improving the navigation from 'Hert ford to Ware to the new river made by the Mayor and corporation of London, and for making the governor and company of the New River better supply London and Westminster with good and wholesome water. Their object was now to extend these privileges for the bent tit of the public. The trust held by the commiuioners was a public one, and they had no pecuniary interest in the ma:ter. Compensation was provided in the bill for all millewners and others likely to be affected, and at Waltham, where the crown property and the mills of the Ordnance were situated, it was proposed to raise the banks of the stream, so that the proper water level might be maintained. Powers were sought to borrow on the rates and tolls 195,0001, to pay off existing mortgages, and a sum of 13,0001. now owing ; also, to contract with any public waterworks company to supply water in bulk for sanitary or other purposes. The tol.s fur tonnage appear to be imposed as rates in proportion to the improvements that from time to time have been effected in the navigation. For every pleasure-boat passing between Bromley; Lock, and the Thames, a chugs of le. is to be made, and for every I not having delivered any lading, 55. Mr. Rendel, C 8., explained from the plans and sections, that the Improvements would have the effect of greatly increasing, for public purposes, the capacity of the river, and lay the foundation in the district for an effective system of drainage. They proposed to scour, deepen, divert, and enlarge the navigation, construct new locks, dock. wharfs, and culverts, and to make eight new cuts, the first commencing at Hotidestion, crossing the Eastern Counties Railway, through Roydon, to near Charl dow : the second at Carthageni Luck, and terminating at Nasing ; the third at Waltham marsh, through Cheekunt to Enfield ; fourth at Stone-bridge, terminatin.: at Totten ham ; fifth at Walthamstow ; sixth at Lea-bridge, Hackney ; seventh at Layton, and terminating at Lea-bridge; and eighth at Four-mills, Bromley, through Written& to Bow. After some explanations in reply to inquiries from parties present of a local nature, and in reply to which it was stated, that as far as possible the desired requirements would be met, Mr. Cubitt, at 3 o'clock, declared the inquiry closed, and will make his report to the Admiralty thereon. SUICIDE FROM VAUXHALL-IMMO& Yesterday morning, about six o'clock, a respectable looking man was observed to mount the parapet of Vauxhall-bridge, and pre cipitate himself into the water. The unfortunate WWI dusted with the tide towards Lambeth, where he sank, and at low water the body was found imbedded in the mud. The body is that of a gentlemanly looking man about 30. On the person was found an envelope, addressed to W. Joao, Berk, Hammersmith•bridge-road. NUTMEO PASTR.—An importation has recently taken place from Rotterdam of a parcel of paste, prepared from nutmegs, for the purpose of mixing with soup, and which, finding no description applicable thereto in the table et duties, was declared as goods manufactured not otherwise enumerated, at the ad eakwent duty of 10 per cent., which description was objected to by the officers of the revenue. who considered it to be liable to duty, as an expressed and essential oil, of Is. per lb., which rate of duty has, on loasiderrtioa of the matter, been difeetea to be charged on the article. rlirPß t:!-.
