That invinuation Iv:. false; the 'sitters On which Mr. Turnbull ha. IWIL'A engages' were chiefly political, and his duties were Dot to write a history, hut to compile au ahstmet of documents laid before I. m. The Protestant Alliance, the Religious Tract Society, and the Scotch Reformation Society took sham Without aserilaining the astute of Mr. Turnbull's dutica. the Protestant Alliance called upon its (fiends to p talon against his appintatent. It quoted • passage free a hook be had written twenty years ago, as a squib on l'useyisaa, awl when be was • protestant, u a sample of his poisitit ominion. The Tract Societe sent to year lon Islii to. and cin , ilatrsil in draft wiping some of its membersa statement that an important paper had lavii missing since Mr. Turnbull's appointment. That statement was Wm. No copy of the (biro, male against I 'WWI seat to Mr. Turnbull, and as the memorial against hint was circulated with the mark of '• private soil confidential." it is presumed that his accuser. it-irol he should have no °pion ty of refuting them until is • I isni ssil was pri s •uris I I snowed by the incessant attacks CAI his honour, and fearing that the public servies would suffer if des. , redit were thrown es He officers, Mr. Turnbull tender.' bin re•igantion. Under ordinary circumstance* we s boold not think of iaterfering with the public appoint ment...if the country. Rut we feel that a chivalrous sense of duty ha, hurried Mr. Turnbull Mb. an • it, whose come quencis, if it he toostrictly interpreted, may mat discredit •• our whole nation awl the protestant religion. It 6 not true that the patios at large believe a catholic to he un tru.tworthr aceotaat .4 his faith.

But we believe they will ha quite mounted if your lordship will caret that Mr. Taratiall be regarded as aa Aker who has ile smsdal a rourt.m.irtiah will roafroot hint with his sc. OMR and peat hive a fair Ashland so favour." Loud PaCiedormn said—This is a matter which I lam had under my attention for a considerable time. First of all let ins say, that it doss not appear to me to he a matter which fails within the category in which Lard Nonnanby lira clamed it. It does ant seem to me 1.. be a question respeding the examine of men from eermin apisantinente oo account of their religions °mamas. I had represestations mole tome last year which led me te commusicate with the Master of the Rolls, and I had an answer from him. The objection to Mr. Turnbull, as I understand it, is mote, sot on the ground that ea a catholic he is unfit to be employed by the gore. meat, but that being • man of high personal besour soil great ability soil attainments, he happens, as convert,. very often are, to be a man also of may extreme cribbers ; in fact- eliorot a fanatic. It was thoegkt, there fore, that be yeas sot • pen.wi who was likely to being to the lartirular dirty upon which he was employed that calm primmest sad impartial view which are ea. rotaal M the abstracting and compiling of dom. meats belonging to • period when daemons's of religious opinion conoeeted with historical events were miry strong. I concur in that opinion. I think it was an unfortunate aelectioo. It would nut have been difficult to find in the circle of literary men some other person who would he equally competed to perform the duty ; and, although I do not in the least doubt that Mr. Tarnbull most faithfully abstracted everything which he was ordered to abstract, yet I mast say that his position was not altogether that which • man holding very store; opinions —strong opinions, I say, because his pub. lobed works prove that they are strong—it was not • position is which a man of that frame of mind aunt of those opinions would feel himself comfortable. When he had to abstract documents relating t., religious differences and controversies of former ;enrol.. it must have been effnineli the gran to record them if they were uofavourabls to the tenets to which he so strongly clung. At the same time, I must observe that Sir John Notedly elated be was satisfied that Mr. Turnbull was • it person awl woold &his duty properly, and he raid that unless I desired that be should be dismissed he should not think of putting the matter into any other hands. Of course I did not feel that there was suf. "clot pound fur that. Well, then mine Mr. Tomball's resignation. I think that Mr. Turnbull acted es • man bosom ought to act under such eircurostionses. Hs midge& hit, that however unjust might be the imputations egoist him, still, u there was a strong feeling among a large din of the people Hut he was pesionsing a duty for which he was not (It, it was best to maps from attack and get out of a place in which tbe confidence d • large portion of the community was denied to him. He very honourably resigned. The emoluments of the office were very small indessl. It was not a perma nent office, the employment was merely temporary. Well, then, whoa it was put to me the other day—what should be done!—l thought it woe only acting fairly by Mr. Turnbull to accept ha resignation. I think he acted quits rightly In resigning instead of continuing to be a target to be shot at. I think, too, the acceptance of his resignation was fair to him and fair to the public. The only mode in which anyone could ascertain whether or not his duties were performed fairly, washy comparing the abstracts which he made with the original documents. That is a kbevir very few persons would undertake, though anyone might try to ascertain by one or two specimens what was the general character of Mr. Torsbull's work ; yet it is quite clew that in the perfonneace of the duties entrusted to him, lie must be more or lean liable to imputations, sad I felt that having regard to the public interest and to Mr. Tom bull's particular situation, as he had tendered his malgen boa, it was my duty to accept it. The Marquis of N.ARMAMBY mid it was with extreme re :rot he had beard the opinions expressed by his loedehip. Hu lordship had stated that at some previous tiros Mr. Tumbril' expressed strong opinions. If that were a sufficient grouted fur accepting his resignation, it woeld open the door to any religiona society objecting to the sppuintniest of any man to • particular office on se. rent of his religious origami& The question was one not "f ^Plains& bust of good faith, awl the good faith of Mr. Terahaff was proved by the weer in which he had per formed his duties. He (the sold* marquis) believed {he Pniediee naiad Mr. Tarnbull would not have pro ceeded so far if the premier lad "ppnsed it. As to Sir Joins Hominy, be had recommended that Mr. Turnbuirs "'iguana should not be aoceplai.

Professor Psalms said that was written twenty year, ago, and wee part of a squib on the Puseyites. Lord PA LIMINTON —Well. nevertheless, I see, even from the preface to Mr. Turnbull's work, that be is a man of very strong feelings. His lordship having intimated that be thought Mr. Turnbull's duty had been almost serum !dished, The Marquis of NoRVANBT wid that waq • mistake. Mr. Turnbull had only completed the reijo of Henry VI., and ho had to go on to the Revolution. Captain ducts oloerved that M. t;iiirot, a pmtestaut, way employed by the French government many years ago to prepare documents, and though his appointment gave offence to many of the Ultramontane party it waa not :ancclled. Mr. FOLICARD did not are how Mr. Panizzi could retain his °Mee after what Lord Palmerston had said. That gen tleman was a Roman catholic, and be had the custody of valuable historical MSS. in the British Museum. The same remark would apply to Mr. Atlee, private secretary to Lord Cowley. Lord PALwriorrox —There are degrees of opinion. It does not follow that every Roman catholic would not com mand public confidence. Mr. JAS. MARTIN/.AU thought it a peculiar hardship that a presumption against a man on accouut of his religions opinions should be allowed to outweigh the fact that he had produced a work io which he had exhibited literary juatice, and perfect fidelity. Lord PALM 1:11ST. Of Rai.' it Wa.4 not the mere fact of Mr. Turnbull's being a catholic. The charge made against him was that of beiug fauatical. A moderate catholic might be just as competest to do the work as a protestant. The Marquis of NOMMAYMY mid he could assure his lord. ship that his decision would not put an end to the metro ver.y. The deputation then withdrew. LAW INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Wore Mr. Comminioner Enos.) IN RE DAWNS AND 11101;1111T0 —THE sIittRZOITCII RANK.

He petitioned the court titular the ar rangerneut chives in October last, when he attri buted hit failure to losses incurred in carrying on the Relipiee, and other publications. His interest in the Sportiog Life, it seem., ha, been disposed of to a secured creditor. His pommel not being satisfactory, the matter was turned Into bankruptcy. The liabilities are 7,5791. ; assail returned at about 4,000/. This was the first sitting under the bankruptcy. Mr. Wa.

Mrs Connell came forward and said her husband was a areas man, and she was afraid to take it away. Mr. Carrie—Nonsense. I will not take that excuse. I shell pameh you fur receiving these rugs knowing them to be stolen ; that is what it is, you know. Perhaps I nury deal with both of you. The constable mast go and fetch the rug. The officer left the court, Mrs Connell being detained. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and begged for mercy. Mr. 'orris-1 shall send you to Feitham fur thr e e years, which may be the saving of yuu. On the retain of the officer with the rug, Margaret Cou ncil WAS charged as receiver. Mr. Spencer repeated that part of his evidetoe which affected her, and said the rugs were worth 9s.

MEXICO. TO THE EDITOR OF THE EXIMZ9I4. Silt,—ln the absence hitherto of any official ac count of the final struggle between the liberals and the church faction in Mexico, and the future intentions of the dominant party, I trust that you will consider the annexed document, received from his Excellency the Secretary of Foreign Affain, of sufficient importance to entitle it to a place in your journal, and by its publicity in the Et press you will materially waist all whose interests depend cm the prosperity of that republic.—l am, lee., JAMES L. HART, Mexican Consul. London, Feb. 18. (Translated Copy.) " Office of the Minister of State for Foreign Affain, Palacio Nacional, Jan. 15, 1861. " Dear Sir, —The revolution is finished. After the defeat at Masques, and the taking of Guadalajara, the constitu- Mosel army, under the command of his Excellency Don Jesus Genzalez.Ortega, marched upon the capital of the republic, where the rebel baud, making a supreme effort, conoeutrated the greatest jaasible force, and even succeeded la surprising the brigade which, as part of the vanguard, wee in Toluca, nailer the command of his Excellency Don Felipe Berriozahal, who wail wounded and made prisoner, jeently with Messrs. Degollado and Feriae. " Inspirited by this triumph, their chief, Miramon, deter mined to advance with a force of 7,000 men and 40 pieces of artillery, and give battle to the army expected from the in terior. Ou the 21st both armies came in sight of each other, and on the morning of the =ad that of the re actionaryearty was completely routed, leaving in the hands of our victorious army all their troops, train, and even mosey. Miranion and Marquez arrived alone at Mexico. The city contained about 2,000 men io garrison, which made any &Agee impossible. A junta determined to surrender the place to Sur. Deviled.) and the Spanish ambassador, the French minister, sad General Ayestaran, went out to con fer about its capitulation. In the meanwhile it was thought that Miran:ion, with part of the garrison, would wait at Puebla the result of the conference, but the strong consti tutional force had obstructed all the outlets from Mexico, and the result of the conference being that they were un able to give the guarantees demanded by the reactionary chief, he and others of his moat famous accomplices eva coated the city, taking with them some thousand men, who, being pursue-I and disbanded, left in the hands of their pur suers their small train of artillery, consisting of two light piecee. " The 2.lth, in the midst of the most complete jubilee, Sor. Gonzalez Ortega entered the capital, and on the 27th the small sorrumin of Puebla pronounced in our favour. "The revolution is completely terminated, and gloriously, without prejudicial influences, and what is more, without disorder, without violence, and without revenge, common to all revolutions, and no crime has been committed to im pair so splendid a triumph. ' The supreme government promptly called to the capital is arranging at present to act firmly with strict stice, and to advance in the way of reform. From this day forward the law, and only the law, will be th e grand principle by which the public liberty and independence, and the future destinies of the Mexican nation, will be upheld ; that nation which has known Low to conquer, palm by palm, the rights represented by the constitution. " I have now informed you of all that has passed, and from your patriotism it is expected that you will give the greatest publicity ; endeavouring to rectify the public mind abroad, and convince everyone that at last Mexico has achieved a real and durable peace.—l beg to assure you of my appreciating, Ice. —ln the absence of the Minister, " ;free Di Dios MUMS, Secretary. " To the Mexican Consul, Dos James L. Hart, dc., Loudon." Some malversations are reported to have been discovered on the part of one of the officiate of the East and West India docks, but they are believed (says the 7.4.) to refer to past transactions, which will not alter the present or future pecuniary position of the company. Noticing the special services at Westminster Abbey, the Post observes that on Sunday evening last, DO sooner had the last notes of the musical part of the service died away than " upwards of • hundred per sons, undeniably of the upper classes, rose and left the abbey, producing • noise end confusion which rendered the first ten minutes of the rev. gentleman's dis course inaudible to three.quarters of his audience?' The Post aids:—" What • degradation; what • baneful exam ple ; how unworthy the actors, the place, and the occasion. Cannot thesis pereceu forego a little amusement (for under such circumstances they can come only for amusement) just for one day in the week! Can they not liberally take tickets for Exeter Hall, if they must needs get up an en thomisian for Heade' and Haydn, instead of filching a little music gratis at the expense of disturbing the more serious thoughts of those who have no other opportunity for their devotions r. A letter from Mexico *aye :—" A moat melan choly occurrence has just taken place at Tasco, by which Mr. Bodmer, her Majesty's vice-consul at that place, has fallen a victim to the brutality of some troops under the order of Vicazio. While endeavouring to save a prisoner whom these demons were torturing, he was shot through the lungs, and expired • few hours afterwards. He was much and deservedly respected, and leaves • widow with four or five children to deplore his loss."

A RASH LEAP.—On Saturday last, a private of one of the regiments in garrison at Dover, with the view of escaping from a picket in close pursuit of him, madly jumped from the cliff beyond Arcbcliff Fort, a height of nearly 100 feet. On being picked up, he was found to be alive, and was promptly removed to the Military Respite!, but the injuries received preclude hope of hie ultimata euvery.—Maidotone Journal.

The wenn ' ties held by the company have been valued at the market price on the Slat Demmber, ma This exhibits them wider au unfavourable aspect, inasmuch as there is an apparent lose of 2,6541. 10,. Ad., but, being upon a valuation merely, this: does not indicate a loss either actual or antici pated. The company having been Wituldisheal only six months from the date of the accounts now rendere d the directots do not recommend the payment of sa y dividend. but they are happy to be able to say that the business of the company is steadily extending, and affords good ground of hope that the prospects with which it started will be amply realised. Surprise is expressed at the silence observed in this document with regard to the losses which are understood to have been incurred, particularly iu the Liverpool branch, since the date to which it is made up. It is said that unanimity has not pre vailed at the board upon the question of the publi cation of the report in its present form. Apart front the 7,8161. which figures as preliminary ex penses, exception is also taken to the heavy 811111- 11,4 - AV.—which has been consumed in six months in the coat of management, including director,' re muneration, at London, Liverpool, and Manchester.
