Bellot, the French naval officer who accompanied the expedition to the Arctic Seas in search of Sir John Franklin:— " London Oct. 13, 1852. _ _ , " Monsieur le Ministre,—l have the honour to in form you of the arrival at Aberdeen of the schooner Prince Albert, with 18 men, which was sent last year in search of Sir John Franklin. Our exertions have been fruitless, as might be foreseen from the result of the expeditions undertaken in 1850 and 1851 by ni vessels deepetched from England and the United States. The circumstances of our navigation through the ice did not permit us until recently to ascertain in what direction and how far our predecessors had advanced. If we have not found the solution of a search so replete with interest, we are enabled "at least to give a satisfactory account of those we have left behind us engaged in so perilous en enterprie " Having encountered the ice on the 23d of June, 1851, we reached on the 10th of July the Danish es tablishment of Uppernavick, on the western coast of Greenland, where we procured a sledge drawn by Esquimaur dogs. The whalers we met ore the Bth dh b ie n l blowing piecesi sa i l ng 12th informed us that three t om b s, b ear i ng names and dates, and other unequivoc a l proo f s of perma nent residency, indicated that Beechy I s l an d , in Bar row's Straits, had been one of the wint er efuarters of t S h i a r n J 2 o 11 0 nd F ay r s an w k e lin en f d r e o a m vo l u B r 4 ed s , t i o n l c B o 44 u . notut it During nwgmh theore American ships of war, to ascend northward alon g t h e eastern coast of Baffin's Bay, opening for our se l ves a "On several occasions the vessel was hemmed in by immense fields of ice several leagues in extent, but our light schooner, rising above it, escaped without open pnf a e s di s nc a e g a d i r e c t ing e a n p a ss ag e t h d ro a u t g thehowt others vesselht eh e r s ice, s y t B sometimes aawi ng gunpowder.wedge theb b e t y wi crowding r o e no wr t injury. Everything beside was ready, and provisions constantly stored on the deck, in the event of the vessel being broken to pieces by the ice. The wind, which no doubt had not blown from the north as much as usual, had left the extremity of Baffin's Bay en tirely blocked up. Numerous icebergs, or mountains of ice, from 100 to 150 feet in height, surrounded us on all sides, and it was with difficulty we extri- cated ourselves from that dangerous neighbourhood. Having left, the Zit deg. 41.5! N. lat,, we succeeded at lasi in crossing the principal mass. More to the south, on the 2d of September, we reached the entrance of Barrow's Straits, endeavouring to pene trate westward where we expected to meet the Eng: lish squadron. Fresh obstacles obstructed our passage, and the interval was employed in visiting the eastern coast of Prince Regent's Inlet. It was also of the highest importance to call in at Leopold's Harbour, where we might obtain the information we required. "In the evening of the Bth Mr. Kennedy, with a boat and four men, left the vessel, then distant a few miles from the coast. During the night northern winds and the current drove us southward, and at break of day we found ourselves 20 miles further, forced along by the ice, which thus separated us from the boat we had entirely lost sight of. We were accordingly obliged to take refuge in Batty's Bay. The next day I endeavoured to repair by land with three men to Leopold Harbour, not knowing whether Mr. Kennedy had been able to reach it ; but the quantity of snow compelled us to return on board after three days' painful exertions, sometimes with , snow up to our knees, and having once employed fourteen hours in walking five miles. It was quite impossible to proceed thither by sea. The ice formed every day a - crust sufficiently . ' thick to stop us, but not strong enough to allow us to quit our boats. The fate of our commander, moreover, was then decided, for we knew that if he had reached Leopold Harbour he had there found shelter, and an ample supply of provisions, left by Sir James Ross in 1849. In the first days of October I made a second attempt with a sledge, but our impatience directed us more than our prudence, and the ice giving way again baffled our hopes. A third attempt was made with a boat, which we drew 50 or 60 miles on the ice along the coast, and on the 17th of October we had the good fortune of again meeting our travelling companions in good health, and having only suffered on our account, for they did not know what had become of us. " The rest of the year was employed in securing the vessel in her winter quarters, surrounding it with a thick snow wall, building on the ice with snow workshops and stores for our provisions, and prepar ing for our winter excursions sledges, mocassins, clothes, and snow shoes. " A detachment of four men, of whom I was one, under the orders of Zelr.liennedy, repaired on the sth of January to the spot where the Fury was wrecked in 1825. The sun disappeared from the 30th of October to the 15th of February, and it wasprinci- pally by moonlight that our short excursion was accomplished. The result of the visit was the dis covery of a great quantity of provisions, carefully landed there by Sir Edward Parry amid the perils of a shipwreck. We also ascertained that nobody had visited those shores since 1849: Towards the end of February we £gain left the vessel for the same coast, carrying► cur provisions by small quantities in the direction we intended to traverse, and amidst the incidents inseparable from n temperature whicb, on the 14th of March, fell to 44 deg. (centigrade) below the freezing point. ‘b The interminable delays of a journey along a coast lined with ice, end where we were often obliged to open a passage for our sledges with axes through the snow, prevented us reaching Brentford Bay before the 6th of April. Eight men, commanded by an officer, then returned to the vessel, while Mr. Kennedy, four men, and myself continued our journey in two Indian sledges drawn by five horses. Having found a pas. sage to the west at the bottom of that bay, we pro ceeded in the same direction to the 100th degree of western longitude (from Greenwich), travelling over plains of snow so uniform that it was only by digging holes we knew that we were on land, and not on th e ice of the Polar Sea. We ascended then to the north and east, in the direction of Cape Walker, to which we attached the greater importance as we considered it to have been the point of departure of Sir John Franklin for the unknown regions of the north. It had been for some time found impossible to travel by day, on account of the reverberation of the light on thcsa eternal snows. After each of our marches we built a hut with snow, which offers the surest and most comfortable shelter against the rigour of the climate. On the 24th of April, the thermome ter rose to the freezing point, and we were then sufficiently inured to cold to sleep in the open air, which we repeated as often as possible, in order to save time. On the 15th of May, we at last reached Leopold Harbour , ha vin g crossed Cape Walker to the east. Scurvy had for some time shown itself among us, and we sto pp ed there tol avail our. selves of the means of combating the examined Cresswell ductor had, during o ur absence, Bay ; and, on our return to the vessel, on the 31 st of May, we found that th e scurvy bad also attacked the tof our men. The doctor him self , and the noble Hepburn, form er companionres of Sir John Franklin, ma ady. The were among the sick. " Thanks to the intelligent care of our surgeon, we quickly recovered, and at the end of July we com menced sawing a passage through the ice for our vessel, cuar remained a a v in ai e l d ab l f e or On the 6th of August she was at last released from her prison, not having had an inch of water under her keel during the winter. On the 18th of the same month we met, in the Bay of the Erebus, the North Star, one of the fine vessels sent by the English Government at the beginning of this year. The commodore, Sir Ed ward Belcher, with a steamer, bad four days before ascended northwards to Wellington Channel, while two others were proceeeing westward in the direction_ P ehraa have l e which pra i a e it of Melville Island.

It is impossible not to per ceive in the act the same feeling of kindness which actuated him, as well as the officers and crew of the Prince Albert , d • during the entire journey. May Ibe permitted, M Its Ministre, to direct your attention to that fact ? 1 could have easily forgotten that I WWI the first and only representative of the French nation in an arctic vtin , er, but for the unremitting attention, and the marked respect of my shipmates, which I must attribute to my quality of French officer. " The reception I experienced from Lady Franklin, and from the Lords of the Admiralty, will render me ever proud of that period of nos career ; an d may I add to those testimonials the certainty of having re sponded to your exp t d s ctations M. le Ministre, and becomingly upheld by my con uct the honour of our navy ?

The circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the expression of Dr. Glover's opinion in favour of Pale Ale, compels Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS to connect this remarkable dis tribution of a calumny with other insidious attacks upon their firm which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy and unneighbotirly jealousy. Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in reply, deem it their best course to adopt the same line of conduct as in the case of the similar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so indignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. They pub lish, therefore, without abridgment, the letter they received from Dr. Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a letter the more valuable because it was not intended for publication, and is an unpre meditated evidence of that learned Chemist's just appreciation of Pale Ala. DR. GLOVER TO MR. ALLSOPP. " Newcastle-on-Tyne, April 11. " was not my intention, in writing the hasty note to ' The Lancet,' to cast any reflections upon, or to implicate in any way, respectable brewers of pale ale. " When I first saw the statement about the alleged use of strych nine in bittering ale, I looked upon the assertion as incredible, both on account of the price of the drug and the symptoms it would create ; bat on experiment, I found that strychnine possesses such wonderful bitterness, the: it might perhaps be used as AN ADJUVANT at least by UNPRINCIPLED PERSONS. In short, my object was simply to show that the thing was not altogether so ,impossible as it ap peared at first sight to be. " My opinion is, that hops should not enjoy the exclusive privilege of being used for bitteriug beer ; but I do not pretend to discuss the pulril. yr ILII prat:Mal yrieti. " I know there are bitters which might be used beneficially, in a medical point of view. " With regard to analysing your beer, my time is taken up, so far as analysing and chemistry are concerned, with two kinds o( in quirles—lst, those which are purely scientific ; and 2d, those which are profitable. If you wish me, in the latter capacity, to analyse and report on your beer, I, of course, can have no objection. " I have to prepare for an absence of three or four days to-morrow, and so beg you to excuse me replying to the letter of Mr. Bottingen, for which I am much obliged. " Yours, &c.. "P.. M. GLOVER. (Signed) " H Allsopp, Esq. - " P.S. I presume you will hardly expect me to write to The Lancet.' However, I shall be at home on Thursday evening, and most assuredly I have no desire to say anything which could weaken the confidence of the public in your beer. But that I am not now in the habit of drinking Bitter Beer, I should be glad to show my confidence by drinking plenty of it." Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS beg to refer to the letter of Mr. HENRY ALLSOPP on this subject, in the " Monthly Journal of Medical Science " for October, in the concluding paragraph of which it is said— " I inserted Dr. Glover's good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer as an incidental testimonial'—no more. I never called it ' a cer tificate,' nor did I apply to him, or any other medical gentleman, for one. lam not responsible that such a construction has been placed upon the off-hand expressions of good opinion which have been sent to me from all quarters." Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in conclusion, wish to draw the attention of the public and the trade to the fact, that, by this dis ingenuous system of attack and the perversions of facts gratui tously adopted, they are unwillingly drawn into that publicity the courting of which is made an accusation against them. Burton-on-Trent, Oct. 8, 1852. tion and propagation of this blasphemous buffoonery. If we allude to such matters at all, it is not without adequate cause. Let those who would leave us for a stricter communion with the Roman Church clearly see what they will gain by the exchange. In another portion, then, of our columns this day will be found a report of a discourse delivered on Wednesday of last week by the Rev. Mr. Northcote, a seceder from the Church of England. This gentleman, it appears, has satisfied himself completely of the truth of a story which for its utter and rank absurdity even exceeds the folly of the Holy Coat at Treves, or the winking Madonna, or Lord Shrewsbury's Addolorata and Estatica. Let us give him the credit of being de ceived himself. If we may judge by the tenour of his discourse, he has a natural tendency to consume what poor arryat used to call "flap-doodle," and flap-doodle is the meat on which fools are fed. It is right that every vision should be attested by a mira cle ; the miracle in this instance is, that auy man with a beard to his chin could stand up and utter delibe- rately as truth to an audience of Englishmen the following nonsensical story : In the month of September, 1846, a little peasant boy about 11 years of age, and a little girl about 15, who had been engaged in keeping cows on a spur of the Alps, near Grenoble, came home and informed their master that they had had a wonderful vision of the Virgin Mary in the course of the day. The children had fallen asleep, and, on awaking, perceived that their cows had strayed. They soon found them • but, on turning their eyes in the direction in which they were, were dazzled by an extraordinary light. The occurrence took place at noon, or thereabouts, for only an hour had elapsed since the children had finished their humble 'dinner. The light they saw " was more glori fied than the sun, of a different colour ; something more red about it than was to be seen about the sun at noonday." The light must have been somewhat powerful to have produced such an effect at such a time, and must, we should have supposed—miracles excepted—have been perceived by some one other than themselves, even in that lonely region. There is no suoh confirmatory testimony; but no matter. The children were terrified, and the girl dropped the stick which she held in her hand; whereupon the boy— the Paladin of 11 years old—said, " Pick up your stick again, for if it offers to do you any harm, I will give it a good blow." That is, the boy was to give the •• light' a good blow ; a famciao Oticloocurat, Vin cennes he will make one of these days. "By this time the brightness was no longer so indistinct," it had just been described as more glorified than the sun at noon day, and the children perceived in the midst of it a lady sitting on some stones at the head of a fountain then dry. The very same spot had been described a few lines before as one which contained a stream of water where the cows had been made to drink ; but no matter. The lady now came forward and stood, one child in one hand, and one in the other, and informed them that she had an important ccmmunication to make to hem. The wrath of her Son was heavy against France for three reasons in especial, and she could not much longer hope to stay his vengeful arm. The first of these reasons was: the desecration of the Sab bath—no very uncommon occurrence in Roman Ca tholic countries for the last 1,000 years, nor at the present day, as all travellers on the continent can tes tify. The second reason that had caused this majestic lady to descend from her region of celestial glory was that the French waggoners and ploughboys were sadly given to cursing and swearing. The third little matter which required amendment, was that the days of fasting and abstinence were not observed as they should be. lade ire—for these reasons the Virgin Mary had descended to Grenoble to give the little cowherd and his mate the benefit of a timely hint. The consequences, if this warning were neglected, would be dreadful—first the pommes de-terre were to fall a sacrifice—then the corn—finally, the grapes and walnuts. Then there was to be a pestilence, whish would be especially fatal to little children. There are one or two singular circumstances connect ed with this interview which deserve especial mention. It appears the Virgin Mary began her discourse in French. How could the children, who only under stood their own patois, recognize any language but their own jargon for French or anything else ? " In the course of her conversation with the children she began it in French, but when she came to speak of the potatoes they did not know what she was talk ing about." Whence then the interpretation of the prefatory matter ? Surely it was somewhat clumsy in so divine a being to mystify these wretched chil dren by talking to them in a language they did not understand ? To be sure. if the Virgin went over the whole ground again in the Grenoble patois, it would be possible that the children should thus have been enabled to bring away her whole message. Such an hypothesis, however, would cast a sad reflec tion upon the management of the divine Ambassa dress—unless we suppose that the French is the lan guage ordinarily in use among beatified spirits, as among diplomatists, and that she forgot herself for the moment; or, if the children had some faint know ledge of the French language, it seems strange that they should have broken down at the phrase " pom mes-de-terre." Be this, however, as it may, there is another circumstance in the narrative to which we would more particularly allude. At a certain point of the Virgin's discourse the boy perceived her lips to move, but could hear no sound. At another certain point the same phenomenon was repeated with this difference, that this time the girl could hear no sound. Now, when the interview was concluded and the children came to compare notes, it appeared that a mysterious secret had been communicated to the girl first, and then another to the boy. What these secrets are we know not. The Virgin's orders were, that the children were not on any account to disclose what she bad said to them, but they have been talked over into communicating their secrets to the Pope in writing. The Pope, it appears, on reading the communications was much affected, and remarked that it was a great grief for France, although the other countries of Europe deserved the punishment as well. Perhaps the communication contained Rachel's verses of the other day. We must refer our readers to another portion of our columns, in which they will find Mr. Northcote's speech at length. The whole story has received the sanction of the Bishop of the dice-se and of the Roman Catholic clergy. A church is being built upon the mountain, to which the coun try-folk resort us to a holy place, and of course mira cles are performed in great abundance. After our this cxperi-nce of the crowds that resorted to see the nestv of 1_14,1y Coat at Treves, we must not pretend to Iy imes, before in these laity. and at our own doors'; but such a story as s o h w e n ck t Ftl at any outbreak of human folly even in our gives the reader but a poor opinion of the ho• wretched imposture and such r i ' s the French clergy, or of the intelligence of the French lait Wht ri this subject was spoken of But there would post o u umns, it was hinted that the wle,le tn it n is posed that the French Of courase'l be motive doubt the true interpretation. : h its a mere scheme for obtaining enough, even if we sup money ; most general way, to ei d ergy st m re e n r g e t ly h t w o is t h h e e d, fa in ith th o e f their divin efolle be ing wers s . steps down belef fonntain whenever she s wanted to bear direct or great thing when a indirect testimony truth of a pertieuler form of to the tri fling with the patience of any man un derstanding to mako such folly th ordinary e aubjtot of It of would be serious argument. Whether the wretched chil dren were deceived by a got-up apparition or whtfeer they really brought home a cock and-bull story which took with the country side and was subsequently improved by the praeAts, matters but little. If the Virgin Mary had wished to break Frenchmen of the habit of profane swearing, she would have put her purpose in execution before the middle of the nineteenth century. CIIRONICLE.—Csto has bsen called one of the antipodes, because " trod Clepo'site to the present world." It would seem, therefore, that. it is only by a Cato, or by one like him, that general consent can be safely resisted. Public opinion may, however, be defied not only by the most heroic virtue, but also by that perfection of selfishness which approaches the sublime. In the present day we must admit that the clergy—especially the dignitaries of the Church —afford more and larger specimens of one sort of the heroic than other caste of modern society. The Six Clerks in Chancery were, no doubt, exalted cha racters; but Archdeacon Hale and Croft, Messrs. Prebendaries Moore and Prettyman, and the Right Hon. and Rev. the Master of St. Cross Hospital, tar exceed any lay pretenders to the great virtue of con tempt of the world. But it is not enough that Arch deacons and Canons should, as Bacon says, " tread opposite to the present world," for it seems as though every branch of our cathedral establishments should, and we fear justly ,expose itself to popular indigna tion. The Deans must now have their turn at a job; and a recent case illustrates the rule, that Chapters must exhaust the cycle of Church abuses.

Great Chart has, of course, no reason s C on h . art A — ifii to complain, but St. Dionis has substantial reason; and, judging from a document which we printed yesterday, it bas also a tongue to set forth its griev ances. Perhaps, as St. Dionis has never been blessed with the pleasant presence of Dr. Fellow during the 21 years of his incumbency, the wise Deans thought the city parishioners were so used to non-residence that, like the eels, they rather liked skinning. Pro bably Drs. Lyall and Pellew argued that, as there was no good residence house on St. Dionis, so it was of the nature of an ecclesiastical economy, or fixed dispensation, that Backchurch must go rectorless till rectors should be no more ; and that therefore—seeing that the rector must, from this great, and invincible, and canonical necessity of the case, be non-resident — it mattered little to the parish whether the said rector were blind, or paralytic, or fatuous into the bargain. Renee the exchange. The assumption is, that as St. Dionis has not had, so it cannot, must not, shall not have a resident rector. This is the Decanal FUNERAL OF THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. The arrangements contemplated in connexion with th's soletnn act of reverence for the memory of the Great Duke have ungone a slight modification. It was in tended that on the night previous to the interment the body should be removed to the :Horse Guards, art lbp t erk i ec a eon t et j t ihu h i ens e y iu tahH n ekpe e eoo r nis a bwnsp l uni tiidratt p eaihad r arlt o el t c dtthawi e hli procession ht i i ttc o vahhh n itiAe wN s plntA h :: eits u rhymon l i hnir. he formed at that poiut.

Tee military escort of the funeral will consist of detach ments from every regiment in the service—of three bat talions of the Guards, 84 pensioners, representing the age to which the Duke had attained, the 331 Foot, the Rifle Brigade, six squadrons of cavalry, and 17 guns. The artillery will head the procession, but it is intended that the tiring should be at the Tower, which is suffi ciently near for the purpose, and is the more appro priate from the Duke haying been Constable. Deputa tions of 100 men, with their proper complements of officers, will also attend on the occasion from each of the five continental armies in which the Duke held the rank of field•marshal; end thus, in addition to a complete representation of the military force •f this country, there rein be assembled on the occasion types of those of Russia, Austria, Prussia, Spain, and Portugal. It is net believed that more than forty equipages will be required in theprocession, which will be mainly conducted on foot. Both st St. Paul's and at Chelsea Hospital the preparations for de approaching ceremonial are in rapid process of execition. The hall of the hospital has been completely cleared, preliminary to the arrangements for the lying in lhatedditional fasilltieascquired for ingress and egress are also being providedd - foie The great work of fitting up the cathedral is likewise progressing satis factorily, and it is expected that, irrespective of the pro cession, at least 10,000 persons will be accommodated with seats in the interior. There is no doubt that the c op d'ceil of the gigantic edifice, brilliantly illuminated fram end to end, and with the light of day completely excluded, will be inexpressibly grand. Several imper fect trials of the effect produced have already been made, and with the most striking results. It is to be hoped that the attention which has recently" been attracted a mong us to the subject of artistic design will not be thrown away on the approaching occasion, and that a national act of homage to departed greatness may not be disfigured by vulgar and tasteless devices. The funeral car in which Nelson was conveyed to St. Paul's combined in its structure the forms of a tourpost bedstead, a ship, a Greek altar, a hearse, and half-a-dozen other incon gruities. What will foreigners think of us, and what can we think of ourselves, if, after so many years of in creased civilization, we evince our sorrow as a people by a repetition of such extravagant and ludicrous absur dities ? ATROCIOUS MURDERS IN STAFFORD SHIRE. One of the most tragical murders which has been committed in Staffordshire for many years, was perpe trated early on Monday morning, near the county town, S . taffo b r y d. The place where it occurred is situate about three miles from Stafford on the road toWolverhampton, down a narrow and secluded lane. The house was occu piedan aged couple named Blackband, who, in addi ipbdei idea an wasot f h e m ounrdefirri fire, and knowledge at hn Lion to the land and buildings adjoining, were also the owners of several fields of land. Naturally of a penu rious turn , . and imagining the safest place for his wealth to . bo on his own person, he invariably carried about with and whichw woman m anf induced o r pur pose ur him a large quantity of gold, and it is supposed to have person or persons to conceive and perpetrate the horrid pose of p ossessing their wealth. About 8 o'clock, a.m., information was sent to Stafford that a cottage at Moss engines were immediately dis patched to extinguish the devouring element. On breaking open the door of the house, the fire was discovered to have originated in ono of the bedrooms, but th e smoke and flames prevented any one from ascending the staircase. Ladders were immediately procured and holes made in the roof of the building, and the fire engines having subsequently arrived, the flames were extinguished. On ascending the stairs, the old man and woman were discovered at the further end of the room on a bedstcai, still burning. Upon examina tion,been cloven with some heavy weapon, the frontal bone it was discovered that the head of Blackband bad being completely smashed, and the back of the head opened. The body was reduced almost to a cinder with the exception of the head and one of the legs. Across the bottom of the bed lay the burnt trunk of his wife's body, ar coo, and lees being entirely gone. She had re ceived a heavy blow over the right eye. For many years the old couple, through infirmities, had slept apart in different rooms in the house. The stairs to the old man's rcom ascending from the house-place, and those to his wife's bed room at a distant part of the dwelling from the pantry. At ;lie bottom of the pantry stairs is a large pool of blood ; and it is supposed that, after the murderer had dispatched the old man, he pro ceeded to the other part of the house, where his second victim was descending the stairs, when he immediately dealt the fatal blow which deprived her of life. Having committed this twofold deed of guilt, he of her husband, and placing her on his bed, have set fire must have carried her through the house to the bedroom to the clothes, intending to destroy every vestige . or mark which would tend to his detection by burning the house and all that it contained, and thus lead to the sup position that the fire was one of accident. The deg, which was kept in the house, was found in the well . op positeedoofldthmisanfast doubt, previously deprived it of the power of making any alarm. The murder must have been perpetrated the door, a heavy blow on the head hav i ng, no after daylight. At half-past seven o'clock a gentleman passed the house, when there was no si g n of fire, but he observed a man walki n g throu g h the ad j oinin g field, as if leaving the house. No clue, however, has at present arisen as to whom t he g uilt of this barbarous transaction attaches ; but it is supposed that the murderer could not baits co mpleted the deed without having marks of bleed upon some parts of his body or clothes, which may lead I to his apprehension. argument. Now, here is an exact illustration of what, at the outset, we called the antipodean cha racter of Deans and Chapters. "They tread opposite to the rest of mankind." An abuse, in these days, is, elsewhere ' a thing to be rectified—not to be continued as an abuse bectaupo isaa beital Tilk is the rule in matters of State---the Church takes the antipodean view. The rest of the world will feel that, supposing it were beyond the bounds of clerical pos sibility to secure a resident rector to Dionis, the question might still be fairly asked—must the parson of St. Dionis live at Canterbury, and need he be suffering from paralysis? Is it not possible to rele gate the parish priest o f F enc h urc h-street, say to Finsbury-circus ?—end i s a man in fair health wholly unattainable ? A ga i n, i t wi ll be demanded, if unhappily the D ean of C anter b u ry is disabled from attending to th e concerns of h i s own Cathedral— of the city of C an t er b ury —of i ts e d uca ti on al an d charitable instituti ons and establ i s b men t s — o f Con vocation—of liter a t ure, in which he shone—why, in addition to this sa d h eap of incapacities, should Dr. Lyall wantonly add the impossibility of doing justice to a cure of souls in the city of London ? Was it not enough, involuntarily, to neglect his deanery ? Why, voluntarily and of design aforethought, plan and resolve to neglect poor St. Dionis ? So of Dr. Pellew. Is not the Deanery of Norwich enough to satisfy the craving for usefulness which agitates the soul of the late rector of St. Dionis ? Is the town of Norwich an exact pattern of a Christian city ? In order to do his duty in the precincts of his own cathedral, and to strengthen him in reclaiming the vicious and neglected capital of East England, must the Dean of Norwich loiter his summer hours in the sylvan solitudes of the Weald of Kent ? St. Dionis, as of late administered, did not, anyhow, pledge Dean Pellew to be absent from his deanery—Great Chart does. Is the patronage of the Dean and Chapter of Canterbury intended to swell the coffers either of the Dean of Norwich, or of an incapacitated Dean of Canterbury ? Is there no London curate who would accept St. Dionis, even without a rectory ? Must the souls of Fenchurch-street, Lime-street, and Philpot lane be fixed as a perpetual appanage to whatever of , " non-resid ence , plural;sm, and the infirmities of age ' —to use the words of the parishioners—occurs among the memb ers or f r i en d s o f th e Chapter of Canterbury ? I F inally, is there not one member of that splendid foundation who will protest against this scandal ? And these are the Capitular Establishments which we, and other defenders of the Church, are called upon to uphole, and, in their hour of peril, to resist any attacks upon. But a Royal Commission is issued to inquire into these establishments, into their reve nues, into th e i r pre f ermen t, and into the mode of dis posing of e ith er . A n d th e clerical members of this Commission are Dignitaries, and Dignitaries alone —not a p ar i s h pr i es t a mongst them. Dean Lyall and Dean Pellew, or such as them are to be nominated Royal Commissioners to inquire into the capitular disposal of preferment—the Deans of Canterbury and Norwich devising a scheme to prevent semi•simoniactil exchange of benefices! In another quarter we are glad to note at least some, though a tardy and reluctant, concession to public opi n i on . M r . Whiston is reinstated i n the mastership of the Rochester Cathedral Sch oo l. N o t that such a tardy act is anything like justice on the part of the visitor. It is a concession extorted by the force of the times—not a free-will atonement for wrong done. All that the appeal at last turned upon was the most trumpery point of technical chicane— not publication were in whether the h ma e i n fa t c r t u s of true—not 01twWhehtihsetronhtais appeal for and moral hisrig right—not o s t ch w o h la e r t s h ar was hi founded thaton equity members and departments of a capitular body should share in the changes consequent upon the altered value of money —but upon the dry question, whether Mr. Whiston's mode of stating circumstances am o unted, in the lan guags of a certain constitution , to a formal gravius delictum. On this worthless issue Mr. Whi st „ has been deprived of his office for more than three years. But at last he is reinstated, and the public will form a very simple estimate of his case. If Mr. Whiston's facts were true, he ought never to have been sus pended ; if they were false, he ought not to have been restored. It is a question of matter, not manner. The Bishop of Rochester has deprived his final sen• tence of the solemnity of au act of justice, and what ought to hove been conceded to an honest appeal has been surrendered with that awkwardness which would have been "unjust still" --only the Commitision was looming in the future. However, we must yield to the Bishop of Rochester what the Deans of Canter bury and Norwich are inseu ible of —some apprecia tion of, if not respect lbr, public opinion. THE POST-OFFICE IN CALIFORNIA —There are no let ter carriers, and the inhabitants have to call at the Post office for their letters. When a mail arrives there is a great confusion of people, numbering from two to five thousand, waiting their turn in six rows of from six to eight hundred each.

Tho Duke of Northumberland lett the Admiralty yes terday afternoon, en route to Portsmouth by the South Coast Railway. His Grace stopped last night at Arun del Castle. and would arrive at Portsmouth to-day. Ic has been positively decided by the Admiralty that the screw three-decker Royal Albert, 120, on the stocks at Woolwich shall be converted into a screw ship; and for this purpose her stern will he immediately pulled down and I,nghthened about 32 feet, in order to get the proper after run for the screw propeller. This is a very proper arrangement, for thereby we shall have at least a ship equal to the French screw ships of the line, which now outnumber our list, It has also been most wisely determined to build the Marlborough, 110, at Portsmouth as a screw ship, and to name her the Windsor Castle. The Hannibal, 90, at Deptford, also is to be a screw ship. We trust these and others now convertible will at once be proceeded with; they cannot be pushed on too rapidly. PORTSMOUTH, 'OcT. 25. The Sharpshooter, 8, iron steam brigantine, Lieute nant Commander Ptrisb, is manned with the exception of three leading stokers and one seaman, and all able good men. The paragraph which has been inserted in several daily and weekly papers, stating she was only half manned after three weeks' commission, and could not get men, is therefore erroneous. She will be ready for the Brazils at the end of the month. The Fearless steam surveying vessel, Captain Bullock, put in here this afternoon for a supply of coals. The Ganges, from Sydney, 4th of June, with straight in gold and wool, passed this port for London in the night, and sent in heavy mails this noon by a pilot boat. The appointment of assistant-master-attendant at Portsmouth Dockyard has been given at once to Mr. James Tonkin (1832), of the Waterloo, 120, flag-ship at Sheerness, vice Davy deceased; Mr. J. C. Barlow (1835), late in command of the Mega3ra, screw troop ship, has been re-appointed to the Waterloo. Surgeons Dr. William Bobertson (1833), to Leander, 50, Portsmouth, and James G. Buchanan (1846), to Impregnable, flag-ship, at Darronport. Clerk J. B. Burl Act has been appointed to the Ajax, 58, screw guard-ship. SHEERNESS, OCT. 25, 8 sm. By a private letter from Greenock, dated the 22d inst., we are informed that her Majesty's steam-vessel Cy clops, commanded pro tem. by Lieutenant Seacombe, of the Horatio, screw steam guard-ship, arrived at that port, on the 12th instant, having towed the Blazer from Gravesend in six days. The whole of the boilers (four in number) intended for the Duke of Wellington, are not made, nor the engines for that ship ready, and it will be the end of the present month ere any portion of the machinery will be embarked in the Blazer. This vessel at one time can only stow one boiler and a part of the machinery ; hence she will have to make four trips from Greenock to Portsmouth. Under the moat favourable conditions of wind and weather, it is calcu lated that the Cyclops will occupy ten days in towing the Blazer the distance between these ports. The end of the present year will consequently have nearly ar rived before the whole machinery for the " great Duke" has reached its destination. The committee appointed to devise the best plan for adapting the Royal Albert to screw propulsion have re commended that she should be lengthened stcrnways 35 feet, and furnished with engines of the actual power of 1,000 horses. Should this proposition be acted on, the Royal Albert will be upwards of 4,000 tons burthen, and consequently much larger than the Duke of Wel- lington. The following ciroular relative to the future payment of the seamen, &c., in the royal navy_ has very recently been issued to all commanders-in-chief, captains, com manders, and commanding officers of Her Majesty's ships and vessels : " Whereas, by an act recently passed, of the 15th and 16th Victoria, chap. 46, it is directed that so mach of the 18th section of the 2d George IV., chap. 20, which enacted that there shall always be left six mouths' wages of the seamen, marines, and boys of the fleet in arrear and unpaid,' shall be repealed ; and whereas it is the intention of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, not only to carry the provisions of the first mentioned act into effect immediately after the time prescribed by the said act—viz., on the Ist of Oct. next, but also, as soon as practicable afterwards, to es tablish such an amount of monthly pay' as together with the monthly payment of allotment to the wives and relatives of seamen, and the value of clothing, to bacco, and other articles taken up by the seamen out of the public stores fcr their own use, shall, upon an aver age, as near as may be, leave only one month's gross pay in hand for casualties; it is hereby directed, in the first place, that after the 30th inst. the commanding of• fieers of her Majesty's ships in any port where there h an establishment of pay clerks (or destined to arrive at any one of such ports), shall, instead of waiting until there be twelve months' wages due to the sea men es heretofore cause the pay books of the ships unthr their command to be made up in the manner heretofore done, according to the existing regulations, but without retaining six months' pay in hand. One month will h 3 allowed for completing every book, in order that the moneys paid monthly—the monthly allotments—and all other charges incurred during the period for which the pay books shall be made out, shall be set off thereon, and the balance up to the end of the pay book paid to the seamen on such day after the termination of the month allowed for making up and examining the pay books as the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty may fix.—By command of their lordships, Sept., 1852." !, A " AUGUSTUS STAFFORD.

Clerk.—John Binmoro Burlace (1846), to the Ajax, 58, screw-steam flag-ship at Cork. The Driver stearn•sloop is ordered to be made ready for sea in every respect at this port, and to have her guns, shot, shell, and powder on board, when she will be taken to Sheerness and kept as an advanced war steamer at that pert. THE ARMY. Captain the Hon. St. George Foley is appointed as- I s , is o t r a e ri zt t7 r, i d li e ta c r e y as s e e d c . retary for Ireland, vice Hon. Major CAVALRY FIELD-DAY.—The Ist Dragoon Guards, 4th (Royal Irish) Dragoon Guards, 11th Hussars, and the 11, )yal Horse Artillery, assembled on Saturday in the Pcenix rack, Dublin, and were reviewed by the Earl of Cardigan. The troops went through their different evolutions in a manner that elicited the commendation of the noble earl, and reflected the highest credit on their discipline. The equipage of the Earl end Countess of Eglinton, Sir Edward Blakeney, and others, were pre sent at the review. We regret to announce the death of William Hunt, Esq., of 10 80ih R,giment, who died at sea on a voyage to England upon sick leave. This gallant officer never recovered the injury he had received at Rangoon, where his lamented father, captain and paymaster of the 80;11, fell from fever. Lieut. Hunt was so eeteemed by his brother officers that they have ordered a monument to be erected to his memory in Thomas's Church Dublin. Captain Carew's troop. King's Dragoon Guards, has arrived in Carlow, from Dublin. THE LATE EDIFICE IN HYDE PARK. The whole of the materials of the old building have now been removed from Hyde Park, the last column having been carried away on Tuesday, and nothing now remains but to level over the surface again, and eradi cate . ..he last traces of the gorgeous crystal vision of 1852. This is already in progr ess, and the Cr y stal Palace has left not even a trace b ehind. The removal of the mate rials to Sydenham wa s contracted fur b y Messrs. Young husband and Son, of Ne w Gerard's Hall, who employed 300 horses and carts in t he work. The y c o mmenced operations on the 91 h August, and the time employed was 91 days, exclusive of Sundays, in the course of which they conveyed to Sydenham, a quantity of glass, timber, and iron, amounting in weight to between 17,000 and 18,000 tone. It is understood that the offers of large sums made by several parties for a monopoly of the "pickings" to be found beneath the boards of the Crystal Palace, were all refused by the contractors, Messrs. Fox and Henderson, who generously gave permission to the labourers em ployed upon the " spot to appropriate to themselvesupon any in removing the planks of which the flo or was composed, ht " treasure trove which they might chance to li g and in turning up the turf below. The findings have been quite a godsend to some of the men upon the work d s. Coins of copper, silver, and gold; crotchet-purees,tsutrunesci rings, &c., with civet and gold headed canes, hav e _cortunate up daily, and the other day a poor man or 8/. It would seem from this that all the treasure lost last year in the Great Exhibition did not fall into the hands of the light• fi egered gentry, though many of them enough to stumble on a purse containing as w m as uch as . 7 . 1. doubtless made a harvest of the spoils, but that a large portion of it slipped through those provoking boards, which, as our readers will doubtless remember, s t oo d just wide enough to swallow up any stray shillings or which might drop fro m their hands, but were, si xpouees unhappily, just too narrow to afford the loser a chance of recovery. ____ _ ---- - - TIIE MURDE R OF AIL MANIFOLD. — The Leinste r Express g i ve s the following additional particulars rein.• tivo to this most wrocious tuurder:—`• It appears that Mr, ideals was the purchaser of the M o untpleasant Pro perty, under the Encumbered Est a t es Court, his bro• ther d wife hav in g been the previous wner. c h a se -money not having been lodged till o after .Tho pur- November, Mrs. Morris claimed the rentdue up to th a t d a t e , and the cons( quence was that the tenant r y re f use d t o ac knowledge her brother-in.l aw as their landlord. In Fir mance, however, of an order of the Commissioners, the land was forthwith cleared of the defaulters, and thus Morris. delivered up to Mr. Mr. Manifold was the per son who carr i e d the evictions into effect, and in that we believe lies the 1 chief cause of his unpopularity and sub aequent saelaucho 7 death." PARRICIDE AT SHEFFIELD. Since the last Midsummer assize the town of Sheffield has been the scene of an appalling number of the blackest crimes. There have been two instances of cool premedi tated murder, besides several homicides of a less heinous character. Another death has occurred this week, which has led to the apprehension of a young man on the charge of having slain his own father. The name of the deceased was Francis Brice. He was about 54 years of age. He resided in a dingy court in Coalpit-lane, and obtained a livelihood by vending firewood. Ho had a son residing with him—a violent-tempered young fel low, named Richard Brice, who has scarcely attained his majority. He works at Mr. Patrick's sawmill in Bond lane. He is a young man of most dissipated habits, and being of a very irascible temper ho seldom went home tipsy without creating a disturbance with his family. On Saturday night he was out drinking till past midnight, and when he went home he began to chastizo his sister because of some opprobrious epithets that some few hours before she had applied to a young woman with whom he keeps company. The father and mother inter posed, and a great disturbance ensued; but it was an inci dent to which the neighbours were so accustomed, as coming from that particular family, that they took no notice of it. The mother sunk down upon the floor in a fit, and the young man, having now less opposition to contend with, was able to indulge his violence to greater purpose. Some hard fighting ensued. The father having been struck at least once with great violence by the son, and seeing no hope of quelling his rage. ran out of the court and ihouted fur a watchman. The next moment he dropped senseless, and one of his daughter's having run to his assistance he expired in her lap di , rectly afterwards. The watchman came and took the young man into custody. The circumstances of the esdam case (ru will y b ) e invest igatedby the coroner, probably this know wnai builtttihnh g ih e PROFESSOR BLACLIR. Last week, Professor Blackie was entertained to dinner in the Hall of the Royal Hotel, by about one hundred of our loading citizens, anxious to testify their respect for h is public and private character and professional eminence, on the occa sion of his translation from the chair of H uman i ty . in Marischal College and University, to the chair of Greek in the University of Edinburgh.
