The Albjon Hall, where the Revising Barrister, Launcelot Shadwell, Es ‘i held his court, was crowded by parties claiming in right of qualifications in the parishes of Chiswick, Fulham, Hammersmith, Kensington, and Chelsea. Mr. Thomas Alley Jones and Mr. B. Maclure appeared for the Conservatives, and were accompanied by Mr. Maclure, the surveyor, in the interest of that party. Mr. W. H. James attended for the Liberals. SWEAR NOT AT ALL.—Mr. James Ingram Loch hart, of Fulham, understood to he a literary man, appeared to support the claim of his brother to be placed on the register. The question havin g been raised by the Conservatives as to the nature of the qualification of the absent brother, Mr. Lockhart inquired of the Barrister whether, if he objected to take an oath, he (the Barrister) had power to compel him ? BARRISTER—What is your objection to swear ? Mr. Lockhart—l don't choose to do so. Suppose I am a member of the Society of Friends, would you compel me to swear? BARRISTER—NO. ATE you "a Friend ?" Mr. Lockhart—No ; but Christ says " Swear not at all; and acting on that advice, I'll not take an oath Mr. Jones has here objected unnecessarily, and I must say he makes himself very obnoxious iu this parish. biz. Jones—Will you swear to your brother's qualification ? Mr. Lockhart—l tell you I'll not swear at all.—(Laughter.) 13AuursTua—What demonination of Christians are you of, Mr. Lockhart ? Mr. Lockhart—l belong to a body of Christians who object to swearing, and I will not be sworn ; as a good Christian, following out Christ's maxims, I object to swear. Mr. James here read an extract from the Aboliti,,a of unnecessary Oathi - Act, which lays down, that in the case of Quakers, evidence might be taken on "af firmation ;" but he was not aware that it applied to any other sect. \ RETISING BARRISTER—I am aware that Quakers are allowed to give their evidence on affirmation, and I believe that that form is also extended to Moravians ; but I cannot understand why Mr. Lockhart objects to be sworn. Mr. Lockhart—l am not singular in this opinion. There are several members of the House of Lords who hold o the same opinion. Ihnitrs TEß —House of Lords ! That may be ; but c y aa o lv u leed cannotupon to m convincek oath.me Mr. Lockhart— ye that you have any warrant in Sc ripture for your objection; on the contrary, we h Old Testame n t ;of i b n u st t ances where persbns have been Lockhart—you m or r it u y le i rOf t f ilae i th. th y I defy yy you find to find any such au such instances in the New, and as I am a Christian, that is 111 r. Jones—But you would be sworn at the Old Bailey. Mr. James—But we are not yet at the Old Bailey, thank God.—(Hear, hear, from a lot of overseers, and laughter in the body of the hall.) The BARRISTER—Then as you are not prepared to swear to your brother's qualification, I cannot hear any parole evidence. The n ame must be expunged. Name expunged accordi ng l y . Mu. GOODRUGH AND HIS UMBRELLA. --11l the new claim list the name of Mr. Geor ge 13.111 was obj ec t e d to by Mr. Goodhugh, the Conservative objector. A Voice—Who is this Mr. Goodhugh ? Is he the man who is said to make his appearance with an " umbrella," and then to fade away at the vanishing point, as in a parachute ? Mr. James could not say; he had never seen him. Why did he not come into court ? He (Mr. James) thought if this notorious objector, whom he believed no man ever saw, should nor, now come forward to prove the notices, that Mr. Jones ought to be called upon to prove that he had the authority of that person to object, or else to prove the hand-writing to the notices. A long controversy ensued, as to the existence or non-existence of Mr. Goodhugh and his " umbrella," but without anything being proven as to the fact one way or the other, and the Revising Barrister, after bearing the arguments, declared Mr. Ball not entitled to be placed on the register, the qualifica tion out of which he claimed not being sufficient in law to give him the elective franchise. Mr. James protested against the proceeding, and was of opinion that the Revisingßarrister ought to ex€rcise his authority, and compel Goodhugh to come into court. The Barrister sat from ten up to half-past seven o'clock, and gut through much basin( ; but, unable to complete the revision of all the parishes io the polling district, he adjourned his court to Kensing ton, at the Vestry-halt of which, on Friday next, the revision of that parish will be proceeded with. CONFLICT BETWEEN A BURGLAR AND A POLICEMAN AT HIGHGATE. One of the most desperate single-handed midnight encounters which has been known for many years, of a similar nature, occurred late on Saturday night last, between a police constable of the S division, at Highgate, and a professional housebreaker, which had well nigh ended in murder or homicide, and may Sod terminate in the death of the burglar. The fol lowing particulars were collected at the University Collage Hospital, where he is now lying, and it is to be regretted that the constable's name was not left there, as his conduct reflects the highest credit upon him. It appears that about half-past ten o'clock the con stable (233 S) was proceeding quietly along the road, near lligbgate, having been only a short time on his beat, when he saw a tall, powerful-looking man approaching him, carrying a bundle, and t ry i ng to avoid him, as if in haste. This excited the constable's suspicions, who stopped him and required to know what he had, at the same time discovering a g un under his arm ; the answer given not being satisfac tory, the officer desired him to proceed to the police stmion, which the other demurred to, w i t h impreca tions, and end eavoure d to pass On ; hut the officer seized the property arid th e man, the latt er in turn laying hold of th e policeman, and sweari n g that if not permitted to go unmolested the constable's days were numbered. A fi g ma naging to disarm him of his gu n, but being, at the same time, prevented himself from givin . g . a a ny l alarm. ad vantage on either side, They fought and wrestled for d s cslder in b u e ch time, ht commenced, the policeman frequently rolling about thetiiroath,e withouturglar, getting hold of the constablea'sttern made the most deter winedpts to gouge (Yet his eyes, and inhu the constable was enabled to get his at this j u nctur o e, us6, braUarnnbs into the sockets.

It hassince been ascertained that the articles were ac tually the produce of a robbery which had been com mitted at a gentleman's house in the neighbourhood that very evening. On looking to both the policeman and the robber, it was discovered that they were con siderably beaten, the former having suffered exten sively about the eyes by the brutal attempt at gouging. He has been placed under the care of the divisional surgeon, whilst his antagonist was imme diately conveyed, in the custody of two constables, to University College Hospital, one of whom remained with him ; and he will be removed, if practicable, to the infirmary of the House of Detention, Clerken well, until they can both app ear b efore the meg i a " trate. He has given his name about 40 years of age, and says he came from Nan chester a few days ago. It i s thought by the po li ce that he is one of the gang rec e ntly known as the " Northern Banditti," consistin of seven armed desperadoes, three of whom were as C.

He is very ill—dangerously so—from the blo ws of the policeman's st a ff a b out th e head. Telegraphic mes sages have, it is said, been forwarded to the north to ascertain his identity. The I\letropolitan Police Commissioners were apprised of the event early yes terday m orn i ng b y a mou nted express.

To persons, therefore, of limited incomes, or whose incomes are dependent on contingent circumstances, and who, from fear of being unable at some future time to continue their annual premiums, have hitherto neglected to avail themselves of the benefits of Life Assur ance, the advantages of this institution over any other is too obvious to require comment, Every description of ordinary Life Assurance business transacted. Policies from 101. to 5,0001., on every known principle of Life As surance. Policies not void on account of suicide. " Diseased" lives, and lives " declined" by other offices, accepted.

The Bank of India is established for the purpose of carrying on the general business of banking and exchange in India, China, the Mauritius, Ceylon, Singapore, and other eastern possessions of the British empire ; for receiving deposits and making remittances ; for granting cash credits and making advances upon approved securi • ties ; for issuing circular notes payable in Europe, Egypt, the prin cipal stations on the Overland routes to India, and at the different establishments of the bank ; for granting local drafts and credits ; and for all other legitmate banking business. The large capital of the Bank of India will render it a safe medium of deposits and investment for the Indian community, whilst the sources of profit to he derived from the extended operations of .the bank, by means of its different agencies, and the high rate of in terest obtainable in India, will ensure a large and pt ofltable return upon the capital invested, and will, it is confidently expected, justify the allowance of a moderate rate of interest to the depositors. The great success which has attended the operations of the exist ing s anking establishments in this country, connected with the East Indies, and of the well-conducted I cal banks in the different Pre sidenciec, and the encouragement given to the employment of capital in similar undertakings by the extension of commerce and railways, has led to the formation of the Bank of India. The extension of banking facilities necessary to meet the growing requirements of the mercantile community and of the large civil and military establishments of India, and the development of the sources of wealth of that country which must arise from its improved internal communication by the railways projected and now in progress there, will open an extensive and profitable field for the operations of the Bank at its different branches. The objections which were formerly entertained to the manage ment in England of banking establishments connected with countries so distant as India have been removed, by the rapid means of inter course now existing between these two countries. The certainty and rapidity of this communication will be further increased by the new lines of railway now in progress on the conti nent of Europe and in Egypt, and by the agency of the electric and sub-marine telegraphs about to be established by powerful companies already in operation. Arr4angements are in progress to secure to this Company the co operation and support of some of the largest native merchants of India, which wilt extend the operations of the Bank amongst that class of the Indian community. Application will be made to her Majesty's Government and to the Government of India for charters of incorporation to limit the lia bility of the Shareholders, and power will be taken to increase the capital of the Company to 2,000,000/. sterling, in which event the new shares will, in the first instance, be offered for distribution amongst the existing Shareholders, and such other parties as, from their local connexions and other circumstances, may be considered likely to extend the business of the Bank. The arrangements for the constitution of this Company are now nearly completed, and full prospectuses, with the names of the Board of Directors, will be pablished in a few days.

The Antwerp and Rotterdam Railway will be the great connect ing link between the lines of France, Belgium, and Germany at one end, and of Holland at the other, and will form a direct intercom munication with the railways of Central and Southern Europe for the inhabitants of Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and the Hague. It is proposed to effect this national benefit by means of a railway from the Government station at Antwerp to the Meuse at Rodevart, a length of about thirty-five miles, in connexion with a steam-boat service from thence to Rotterdam, a distance of about sixteen miles, until a railway—for which surveys are in progress-4s decided upon. In the interval, the steam-boat service is wholly in an inland or river navigation, passengers and goods will be transferred at a railway wharf he deep water, at Rodevart, so that the journey between Ant werp and Rotterdam will be easily and comfortably accomplished in about three hours, instead of occupying ten hours as at present—the fares beta! less than half the present cost. The district to be traversed by this line comprises the best of the Polders of Belgium and llolland, which are of a remarkable richness and fertility. Its dense population enjoys a high condition of wealth and comfort. Whilst the numbers per square mile in Belgium, Eng land, and France, are respectively—Belgium, 382; Great Britain, 231 ; France, 170 ; the Census of the inhabitants located ou the three hundred and sixty square miles adjacent to this line gives a total of 291,730 persons, or about 840 per square mile—more than double the general average of Belgium. The branch to Breda, in length about fourteen miles, will secure the traffic from Bois le-Due, Tilbourg, and a large range of fertile country, from which the o:d and main roads converge towards and unite at Breda. _ _ - This line has long been considered one of the most important and profitable sections of the Dutch and Belgian systems of railway, and has been the object of protracted negotiations between the two Go vernments. The concession for the portion of the line in Holland, which is about three-fourths of the whole, was signed by the King of Holland on the 21st July last. For the five leagues of the line in the Kingdom of Belgum, a convention has been signed by the Minister of Public Works, which only awaits the meeting of the Legislative Chambers to receive a formal ratificatlon. A convention between the two kingdoms, to establish this line of communication, has re ceived the Royal assent in both countries, and was formally ex changed on the 4th of last month (see the " Moniteur Beige" of the 14th August, 1852.) The Concession is for ninety years, and the tariff for passengers and goods is similar to that of the Belgian State Railways. This Company is based upon a contract already concluded with a responsib e contractor, Mr. George Wythes, of Reigate, by which he undertakes to purchase the land, and construct the bridges, works of art and stations for a double line ; and to execute the earthworks for, and lay down and complete, a single line of rails ; as well as to provide all the rolling stock, plant, and workshops. Provision is also made for the payment, by the contractor, of all preliminary and incidental expenses, including the cost of the concession, and also of interest, half-yearly, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, upon the capital called up, until the opening of the line, which is expected to take place in less than two years from the date of the concession. The whole outlay of capital will thus be covered by the contract price of 500,0001., or about 10,0001. per mile, for which fixed sun' the shareholders will become possessed of a line of railway with most fa.voura'sle gradients and curves, complete and ready for opening. As regards the prospects of traffic, it may be observed that the average gross receipts of the Belgian state railways for the year 1850, as published in the Government statistieal returns, amounted to 1,710/. per mile, which in this case, would give a profit of up wards of 10 per cent. on the guaranteed cost of 10,000/. per mile. It is apparent, however, that the receipts on this line may be ex pected to exceed the average of the 360 miles of Belgian State rail ways. First, because the local population in the district traversed is more than twice as dense as the general average of Belgium, and iu a condition of greater prosperity. Second, because the line forms a direct prolongation of the railway from Brussels to Antwerp, which is probably the most productive section of railway in Europe —pro ducing an average receipt of about 6,0001 . per mile per annum. Third, because this line, from its position , must command the greater part of the through traffic between Holland , Belgium, France, the South of Europe—the extent of which may be judged of from the fact that the value of the merchandise transported to and fro be tween Belgium and Holland amounted in She year 1850 to a value of 4,429,9891., which was in great part received at, and sent from, Antwerp. These statements are based upon the annual publication of the details of foreign commerce, made by the Belgian Minister of Finance. Under the form of a " Societe Anonyme," the Shareholder's liability is limited to his "holding." The capital will be represented by 50,000 shares cf 101. each, of which 20,000 shares are already taken in Holland, Belgium, and France. By the terms of the statutes of the " Societe," the certificates of the shares will be issued " to bearer." Applications for Prospectuses and Shares may be made to Messrs. Hutchinson and Sons, 39, Lothbury, and to Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, 68, Old Broad-street, and any further information may be obtained at the Company's Offices, No. 16, Cannon-street, City.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care will, in every instance, meet with that delicate consideration and inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

Morrison— Gentlemen,—Having read a letter from Captain Langley, of the trading-vessel Joseph, of this port, who lately arrived at Hull from Riga, I transmit to you a copy, which you will feel to be your duty to publish to all the world. _ _ _ '; Dear Friend,—Respecting the universal ineCiellie of the British College of Health, which you so fortunately provided me with at Sunderland, I have every reason to believe, and Indeed I am con vinced, that they were the means of preserving nIY own life as well as some hundreds more at Riga, a great mSAY Which I was an eye witness te. " On my arrival at Riga, I commenced taking the pills as a pre ventive or preparation for attack, to stay its violence if assailed; by which means a free passage through the body prevented the in fectious air from producing that fatal cramp ha the stomach and limbs which has caused the death of thematic's. On the 28tii of May, however, I was most violently seized with that dreadful dis order, and for the first four hours was ins deplorable state ; but, thank Clod, from the precautions I had used, the noxious air had passed through my body, with very slight attacks of the cramp, and a few strong doses of the Universals semn restored me to health. All my men, except one (who was too timid to take the Pills with sufficient strength, tram the fear of being too violently purged, who died in a few hours), took th e Pill! night and morning, and were saved. " To satisfy the poor fellow who died, IT got kiln Borns medicine on shore, but it took no effect in the least, as he ceased to exist soon after, first becoming cold as a lump of ice, and of a dark blue co lour. I cannot think the cholera infections are contagious front the touch as none of us were affected from handling the corpse. " I left Riga on the Bth of June, and got down to Bauldra the same day, all well, but on the 10th the mate and a boy were both taken ill with this dreadful disease, and for six days were in a dis tressing state; but with a close and powerful application of the Pills were restored to full health. " I am happy to say I have every reason to believe that this me dicine alone is all-sufficient to stop the ravages of this dreadful evil, but that its powers are best applied at an early stage. or as a prepa rative. " The value of the medicine Was in the hthe,st estimation at Riga, and great lamentations were made at the scanty supply that could be obtained from me and the rest of the vessels who had sup plies from you. Had I had 10•/. worth more I could have sold them all, even to the French electors that were them" The whole of the letters th a t h ave c o m e to Sunderland from those vessels which had supplies o f th e me di c i nes out, of their efficacy. speak with raptures I am, Gentlemen, your humble servant, MICHAEL GARDNER, Captain of the brig iChOmpson, Bishop Wearmonth, Aug. 1, 1831, now residing No. 18, Lawrence street, Sunderland.

About sixty yar d s of massive brickwork, four feet thick and between thirty a n d forty feet high, gave way and fell with a tremendous cras h on the line of railway. Various out-buildings fell at the same time. Mr. Brunel and several of the directors had been on the line only a short time before Although the damage is extensive, it is believed that it will not cause the postponement of the opening of the line. Fortunat e ly, no persons were injured, as the slip was anticipated some hours previously. GREAT EXHIBITION, 1851.••..C1TY OF LONDON COMMITTEE.— We understand that the committee have coa vened a meeting at the London Tavern, to be held on Friday, the Ist of October, at twelve o'clock ',precisely, for the dis tribution of the medals, certificates, and juries' reports, con , nected with that section of the Groat Exhibition. SPIRIT Of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM TEE MORNING PAP," HERALD.—In our article on OFTHIS proceedings of the Bi s h op of Exeter, we the ought to have stated th e f act, that,,ar, Saturday perhaps Prynne ll' on denied having received th e girl in Mr. had question for con fession ; but we were led away from the consideration of that point by the language of the his Bishop in judgment, in which he assumes as true the fact that Mr. Prynne did actually re ce i ve the as confession, which , Mr. Prynne in one place " solemnly assures" the Bishop he never did receive, although certainly another place he admits that he h a d once ashort in conversation with the girl on " the subj ec t of con firmation and holy communion." P u tti ng aside : however, for the present the point, whether or not the scenes, as described by the girls, really did pass at confession with Mr. Prynne; let us inquire to what extent at confession, according to his own showing, Mr. Prynne admits that he will go, at the same time remembering that it is that same extent which the Bishop justifies and approves. " I beg to assure your Lordship," says Mr. Prynne in his written address to the Bishop, " that I never put any such questions to any one in my life as are suggested in the statement, or anything like such questions. I should deem it as corrupting to do so as lam sure your Lordship would." So far so good. We have nothing to find fault with in this general and positive-denial. But then comes th 9 qualification —" I put questions," he says, " under the circum stances which I have already stated to your Lord-• ship—viz., in order to assist a person to make a com plete confession of sins, which they have upon their conscience, but have a difficulty in naming, or in order, sometimes, where they seem ignorant, to bring more fully home to their conscience the degree of their * "On the seventh commandment, I trust I have been most cautious not to suggest evil to the penitent, but judicious questions." Here, then, we have a deli berate explanation by Mr. Prynne, addressed to his diocesan, of the ordinary rules by which he is guided at confession. From that explanation we learn that the seventh com mandment is a subject-matter of confession, and that :although he has been " most cautious not do suggest evil," he has, nevertheless, suggested " judi cious questions." Now, we should really be glad if Mr. Prynne would explain what possible " questions," on such a subject, he imagines can be " judi cious" without some admixture of " evil." But the preceding part of his explanation throws a pretty strong light upon the nature of these " questions. They are put, he says, "in order to assist a person to make a complete confession of sins which they have a difficulty in naming." Now what can these sins be which those who come to confession " have a difficulty in naming" but sins of sensual impurity, which the apostle says " ought not so much as to be named amongst you ?" Mr. Prynne, therefore, admits that he encourages " the penitent" (accord ing to the avowed practice of the Popish Church) to make to him, in gross terms, filthy sensual reve lations, which one man ought to be ashamed to make to another, but which this middle-aged clergy man of the Church of England entices females to make to him, even when they have " a difficulty in naming them," under the foul and wretched pretence of enabling them to relieve their consciences by con fession. We do not think that we ever in our lives read a more revolting statement than this explanation of Mr. Prynne's. That a Romanist priest should be guilty of such loathsome proceedings is so far excu sable, that it is inculcated on him as a duty by the anti-Christian Church of which he has the misfortune to be a minister; but that a clergyman of our Pro testant Church should thus undisguisedly confess to practices so sinful and disgusting, betrays an obli quity in his moral sense, and an indifference to the first principles of the pure religion of Jesus Christ, which fill the mind with mingled feelings of awe and indignation. Would that we could stop here. But, alas ! alas ! this disgusting conduct is actually com mended by one of the prelates of our Church. The man who avows it is singled out by his Bishop for his special countenance and favour ! The Bishop says that " he acquits Mr. Prynne of holding doctrine not in accordance with the Church of England !" The Bishop, moreover, avers that it is a fitting employ ment for a clergyman of his diocese to sit and listen to a young girt of twelve years old, detailing " hor rors" of the most extreme impurity ; and if perchance she has any modesty left, and she experiences some " difficulty in naming," by the right names, the filthy actions of which she has been guilty, or if perchance " she seemed ignorant" bow to do so with correctness, then the Bishop approves of this clergyman putting such questions to her as shall remove her " difficulty" and inform her " ignorance," so that she may " make a complete confession of her sins." " I must say," said this Right Reverend Father in God, Henry, Lord Bishop of Exeter, " I must say, from all that has .been produced to-day, I entirely acquit Mr. Prynne, even of indiscretion in receiving confession. Such is the language of the Bishop of Exeter ! We dare not trust ourselves to comment on it. POST.—An inquiry has recently been held at Plymouth, by the Bishop of Exeter, into the conduct of a clergyman, charged with having received certain confessions in a manner repugnant to the principles of the Church of England. It would be desirable, if possible, to exclude questions of religious controversy from the daily papers. But we live in an age when the Church is passing through a severe ordeal—in an age, too, when the press is enlisted on every side of every subject. It is, therefore, not possible, greatly as we desire it, to avoid at all times the discussion of theological questions. 'This must be our apology for offering a few remarks upon the case of the Rev. G. R. Prynne. That gentlemen has, it appears, been in the habit of receiving to confession certain persons in his district, and amongst them some young persons con nected with Miss Sellon's establishment at Eldad. This coming to the ears of certain parties not of the same theological principles as Mr. Prynne, an inquiry is set on foot among some of the young persons who had gone to confession. The consequence is, that two or three clergymen at Plymouth, well known as the leaders of every kind of opposition to the Bishop and to High Church principles in general, lodged with the Bishop a formal complaint against Mr. Prynne, which resolved itself into these four charges :- 1. The confessional is within the church. 2. That the confession is carried on secretly, not as in Roman Catholic churches, where the parties may be seen by the passers-by. 3. That (at least in the case of the girls belonging to the Orphans' Home) it is periodically and compulsively carried en. 4. That this compulsive and periodical system is enforced upon very young children, i. e., from twelve years of age. These charges, the Bishop decided, did not bring Mr. Prynne within the operation of any spiritual or temporal law ; and he therefore adopted a purely , extra-judicial course. He fixed a day for the ac cusers and accused to appear face to face befor him in the presence cf a select number of clergy and laity, and seven reporters for the press. The reason of such an arrangement is not very obvious. It surely rested with the Bishop, as Bishop, to investigate a charge against a presbyter without holding a meeting for the purpose, and that, too, under circumstances which made it utterly impossible to come to a correct con clusion on the matter. We remember a previous •occasion when the same Bishop held a similar meeting to investigate charges against the management of Miss Sellon's institution, and nothing could bemore unsatisfactory than the termination of that inquiry. Not that it prejudiced Miss Sellon or her cause in the least, but it left the matter in as much obscurity as at first, with the additional disadvantage, th at reports got circulated amongst the public, and w en t v ery llnutrin a- the round of the papers, which from their her and vaguity could never be authenti ca ll y in itself,i dieted ; and thus a cause, good, probably was injured by unskilful treatment. So, pre sent case, a statement has gone forth through thero ha u gpapers which does not clear up a s i ngle difficulty l the in volved in the inquiry. The Bishop ac quitted Mr. Prynne of all blam-e has, indeed, t going to find fault with the Bishop'sanodpiwneiona.re.rßonumot it is very clear that that opinion derived sources independent of Mr. Pr n w ne as 's own reply to the charges, and therefore extremely Y unsatisfactory to those who, from the irregular manner in which the pro ceedings of the meeting were conducted, are debarred from all chance of formin g a fair conclusio n on the sub ject. We have, therefore, much fault to find, first, with the constitution of the meeting, and, secondly, with the course of its proceedings. For the first, it is very clear that Mr. Hatchard, an d the clergymen who acted with hi m , conce i ve d that they had at last caught a High Churchman tripping, and with that bitterness which they a l wa ys manifest t owards their Bishop whenever they have a chance, they resolved upon a public agitati o n in Plymouth on the question of auri cular confession, which w as enforced, so they said, by Mr. Prynne, under circumstances even more objec tionable than in the practice of the Roman Church. As a preliminary, they forward a formal complaint to the Bishop, and when the Bishop proposes a com- Paratively private investigation, Mr. Hatchard and Mr. Childs most loudly complain, demanding that every particular should be published and the meeting be a thoroughly open one. It was the old cry over again, "The public must be eatisfied." The absur- [PRICE SD. dity of " satisfying the public" as to the views and teaching of any particular clergyman on confession is transparent to every one but a bigoted Low Churchman. The public, qua public, have no right to trouble themselves about the matter. It is a Churchman's question. But that large section of the public whose feet never cross the portal of our churches, who know little and care less about the Church's principles and teaching, what have they to do with such a complaint as that made to the Bishop ? We are quite aware that, in obe dience to the Apostolic injunction, " Against a Pres byter receive not an accusation but before two or th ree witnesses," the Bishop could not deal with the comp l a i n t without the help of his clergy, but surely that is no ground for a meeting constituted l ike t h at of which we now speak. It is neither private nor public. It is suffi c i e ntly public to stimulate curiosity and make known the charges, while it is so p rivate a s to withh o ld the evidence on which the truth of the complaints depend. Had the Bish o p resolutel y main tained his right to investigate the ch a r g es with the assistan ce Of such clergy as he chose t o call to his councils, and denied the right of "the public" to be ~ satisfied on g " a question which concerns Churchmen tain extent, and th n only, we with his Lordshi ' But by the meet ing he appointed, and determination. inviting reporters, especially by he conceded a supposedn public toe cer presume that d no fault could have been found claim of the which alone could g , s - - acknow ledged claim.

After such examination, m o may think fit, and will then proceed e t rvations as they be allowed to cross-examine those witnesses, and will Bishop will ask such additional questions es, and the think fit. as he shall ruliflatatlttderd,nZ " Mr. Prynne will then state his case, and make a n comment on the evidence which he may think fit. If h e produces witnesses, he will examine them, and af ter . wards the accusers may cross-examine. " A reply will be allowed to those who make the charges. " If either the accusers or the accused prefer con ducting the case by any friend, being a clergyman, they may do so." But it never appears to have occurred to the Bishop that he could not enforce this method. Probably he trusted to the good sense and good feeling of those who were labouring so assiduously to put him in an unhappy position with " the public." If he did, it appears that he trusted to a broken reed. Mr. Hatchard and his friends had also a plan, and they resolved not to accommodate theirs to that of the Bishop. His Lordship wished to take each case singly, and decide it on its merits. Mr. Hatchard and Mr. Childs opposed this, desiring to lump the cases together, and come to a conclusion upon them jointly. The consequence was, that a de sultory ill-managed inquiry took the place of the reasonable plan proposed by the Bishop. Several per ' sons were examined, and several certificates put in. At length time wore on—the day closed with nothing substantial effected. Mr. Prynne produced a written defence, which does not appear to have been ever opened. The Bishop then pronounced a judgment acquitting Mr. Prynne of all blame, to the chagrin of his accusers. Now, can anything be more unsatisfac tory than such an inquiry and such a result P It was said—" The confessional is within the Church." This was disproved, but it was admitted that there was a room used sometimes as a confessional, so that the charge substantially remains. And it has undoubtedly the great disadvantage, that the room used is not public as in Roman Catholic churches. While it is admitted that Mr. Prynne did receive persons so young as twelve years to confession, it yet does not appear that it was either periodically or by compulsion. So that, after all, the simple fact is, that Mr. Prynne received young persons to confession, and that, too, in a cer tain room in the church. The questions then arising are—Ought Mr. Prynne to receive confessions at all ? and next, if that be granted—ls there anything in the circumstances of these confessions to inculpate Mr. Prynne ? As to the first of these, we may accept the Bishop's exposition as satisfactory. There are, un doubtedly, cases in which a clergyman may receive confessions. As to the second, it would have been more satisfactory had the Bishop been equally lumi nous in an exposition of the proper mode and place of receiving them. We should then have had better grounds for believing that Mr. Prynne is free from blame. Either the whole should have been made public, or none at all. At least the outline of Mr. Prynne's defence should have been given. At present it leaves the impression that this is just one more case where principles, really right, are brought into con tempt through the indiscretion of those intrusted with their administration. IRELAND. THE MURDER OF ME. RYAN. DUBLIN, MONDAY.—Oa Thursday last the Sheriff of Tipperary, accompanied by a strong force of police, executed a babere upon three farms on the estate of the late Mr. Ryan. These farms were occupied by parties who are str o ngly suspected of having been concerned in the assassination of that gentleman. Hacket, the holder of one of them , hag been full y committed for trial. Two of the farm-bathes were at once levelled to the ground, but the third, which is of a more substantial character, was left standing, for the use of a constable. There was a large concourse of persons present, but they did not express any sym pathy with the fate of the murdered landlord, nor the ejected tenants. THE MURDER OF THE SOLDIER AT FERMOY. The coroner's jury at Fermoy has returned a ver dict of wilful murder against some persons unknown. According to the evidence it does not appear that the fight which arose between the two soldiers and the country people had any connexion whatever with the memory of the Six-mile-bridge affair. It was the result of a drunken quarrel, which arose in a petty public-house. STATE OF LEITRIM.--TILE ELECTIONS. The Sligo Journal states that the county of Lei trim is relapsing into a state of sad disorder. On Tuesday night, in a district extending over twelve miles in length, all the haycocks were tossed about in the most wanton manner, and a great many of them set on fire. The same night the pound•keeper's house, near Manorhamilton, was broken into and his firesarms carried off. The centre of the mischief is the land called Glenfarn, and the sufferers the re spectable farmers who voted for Mr. Montgomery The magistrates will, we trust, meet at once, and have the district proclaimed. This is exa c tl y the class of outrages which a proclamation can put down. EMIGRATION TO AUSTRALIA. There is quite a rage for emigration to Australia amongst the more effluent classes. Traders of an classes are making preparations fora voyage to th e golden land. The Gover nment is giving the move ment great encouragement. On Thursday lot' ac cording to the Limeri c k papers, the mayor of the N. city, accompanied by C aptain Ellis, R. , Govern mentll emigration agent, attended at the Town-hall the ' to select from th e numerous list (o°°tainin names of 1,000 applicants) 100 el i g ible candidates, especially fe ma l es, whom they wou ld . recommend to the commi ss i oners of colonial emigr ation as worthy of a fre e passage to Austral i a .

The crops are now completely saved. All the accounts from the country agree in representing the produce as above the ordinary average. The potatoes are holding pretty well in many parts ; but, generally speaking, the crop is regarded as a failure. The Tipperary Guardian says : Never, within the memory of man, has the weather been more favourable for harvest operations than during the present season. For the last month we have bash visited Lightly by a sharp frost, followed in the day by bright sunshine. Wheat, in almost every instance, i s safe in the stack-yard; but oats, a greater extent of which have been sown this year than on former occasions, arc rather late. The reports respecting the P otato are conflicting; but we trust, as we heretofore said, that two thirds will be safe." The Limerick Chronicle says : " The weather continues most satisfactory for complet ing the harvest.
