The sucuss which has attended this Institution, arising from its extended connexion, and the safe and liberal principles on which it is founded, have fully equalled, if not surpassed, that of any similar es' ablishment. The Capital of the Company. subscribed by a numerous and wealthy body of Proprietors, affords ample security for all its engagements, while a rapidly-increasing Premium Fund lends additional stability to the Company, and gives an earnest of con tinued prosperity. The Company transacts business in every department of Life and Firo Assurance. in Annuities. Reversions, and Loans. LIFE DEPARTMENT. J. T. CLEMENT, Esq , Actuary. A sum far more than equal to the value of the Policies is in vested in the public securities, in the names of the Trustees, so as to be at all times available. At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the Life Policies equal to twenty-five per cent. on the sums paid, and a bonus of five per cent. was added to the Shares in addition to the payment of the annual interest. The quinquennial meeting being only just past, a favourable opportunity now offers for the commencement of new insu rances • parties now joining will be albwed to participate in the profits at the next division, ai if they had been insured for the whole period. For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a ape• eific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower rates, has been calculated, on which, as well as on the partici pating. scale, ONE-HALF THE PREMIUM MAY RE MAIN (IN INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT. FOR FIVE YEARS, thus enabling a person to assure his life for 1,0001. on the immediate paymen' of the premium for 5001. only. The following arc the annual premiums for the assurance of 16 4 0/., for the whole life, one-half of which may remain for five years by merely paying the interest annually at five per cent., and should the policy become a claim in the interim the amount due will then be deducted Age 20, without profits 1:1 1.3 0 with profits £1 18 0 30 40. 50 For short periods the premiums are considerably lower, and informationfor any ages or contingencies not usually advertised, iformato may be obtained on application to the Actuary or Secretary. ' Insurances on Lives and Joint Survivorships may likewise be effe , •ted on the most eligible terms. The strictest confidence may be depended on in all pecuniary transactions with the Office. Every accommodation will bo afforded to Insurers in cases of unavoidable delay in the payment of Premiums. A Committee of Directors, attended by a medical officer, sit at the Company's House at. London Bridge every Tuesday, from Twelve to Two o'Clock, and at the Western Branch every Friday, from Two to Three o'Clock, to grant Assurances ; but one Director is daily in attendance at each Office, to render every facility to those to whom despatch may be an object.

The following are a few of the numerous testimonials this popular work has'receivecl, and which the limits of an adver tisement will only allow of being published : ' The rage for books in all departments of Science, literature, and the arts, was, we believe, never so prevalent as at the pre sent time. The unavoidable consequence of this in, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, arid even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the. book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of, certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the few books now coming befor the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. IVe strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them, of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesitate, tion in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set down by the every-day observer as the result of common causes, such as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre- Isatisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmondry Consumption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opprobria of medi cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as any other class of affections. We do not think we go too a as we ll as physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, ' far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly moral a book —Conservative Journal.

CHRONICLE.—After an election which the Tories one and all assure us was a deliberate verdict of. the Country against the Whig Ministry, against the, free- trade budget, and in favour of Conservative principles, what possible objection can they have tcf commit them selves, by a debate and division, to the cause which, ac cording to their version of the matter, has just obtained a signal triumph ? If it be true that a decided majority of the nation prefer the measures and policy of Sir Robert Peel to those of Lord John Russell, what, possible harm can result from a proceeding, the only 'effect of which can be to place these measures and' policy on a clear, definite, and unmistakeable footiiig. And yet, that very serious detriment to their cause is apprehended by the Tories from anything which compels them to speak out and unmask, is apparent from the anger they feel at the idea of any allusion in the Speech from the Thro.ne to the great questions of commercial and finan cial policy, which from henceforth must constitute the broad line of distinction between the two great parties. It is ridiculous to affect astonishment that Ministers should think of adopting such a course. It is perfectly apparent to every man of common sense that the con duct of Sir Robert Peel has left no other alternative. To use his own favourite simile, is not the patient entitled to demand from the new physician whom he proposes to call in, some general statement of the practice he intends to pursue ? That, no such state ment was before the country at the late election is apparent enough from this fact, that upon the vital and all-important question of the Corn-laws one half of the Conservative party openly profess their hope and expectation that Sir. Robert Peel intends to do some thing ; the other half that he intends to do nothing. Is the country, in the present critical aspect of the coin mercial world and of the harvest, to be left in this state of uncertainty until February, or whenever it suits Sir R. Peel to make up his- mind ? Not upon the present advisers of the Crown will such a responsibility rest.• They, at least, have made up their minds ; they, at least, have no motive for concealment. They have no wish to prolong their official existence—no wish to avoid the ob vious consequence of the late election—no wish to try a second dissolution, or any of the absurd coups d'etat which are so. ridiculously imputed to them. But this they do wish, that the interests of the country should not be sacrced to the juggle which was played off at the lust election. - POST.—We find in the Globe of last night what we suppose we must regard as an authoritative intimation, that the questions raised in the list Parliament by the Ministerial budget will be raised once more in the pre sent Parliament by her Majesty's Speech on the opening of the session. Such an intimation was scarcely re quired. In the position which, Ministers have thought fit to assume, no other course was open to theni. They have assumed . that position with a full consciousness of all its inconveniences, and all itdisloyalty, and all its ignominy and.. shame.. .And they are not men, when matters of such slight importance as injury to the State and to the Sovereign alone are conceived, to shrink from the maintenance of their position. Mr. Baring's budget, rejected by Parliament, rejected by the people at a general election, taken for the express and avowed purpose of collecting the na tional sentiment in respect to that Budget, is now, it seems, to be—consecrated ? 1 but exposed to More certain destruction and exaggerated ignominy by being re-echoed at the dictation of disloyal and perfi dious Ministers from the Royal lips of the youthful Majesty of England.

Empire hare subject there can only be on e opinion.D AVERTISER—The wealth of the English c l e r gy ri a t t i i s on. Upon this is among the secret things that belong to the Church, for notwithstanding that we have various Parliamentary re turns, and reports of Royal Commissions, the public is almost as much in the dark as• to the real amount of the Ecclesiastical revenues, as they are of those of the Celes tial Empire. -The great bulk of the Church's reve nues is drawn from tithes ; but there arc, in addi tion, many : other sources from which it derives its wealth. The Church is in almost exclusive possession of the revenues of charitable foundations. The clergy hold the professorships, fellowships, tutorships, and mas terships of. the Universities and public schools. Immense landed property is attached to the several sees, cathe drals, and• collegiate churches. The clergy have also a,. very considerable income froth glebe lands, surplice fees, preacherships in the Royal chapels, lectureships, town assessments, Easter offeringS, rents of pews in the new churches, stipends of chapels of ease; chaplainships in the army and navy, as also to embaSsies, corporate bodies, and commercial companies ; church-rates, marriage, christening, and burial fees ; besides which they monopolise nearly all profitable offices in public institu tions, as trustees, librarians, secretaries, and so forth. It 'is no doubt within the recollection of our readers, that in consequence of the various statements that had for some years been current., relative to the in come of the beneficed clergy, and the strong feeling ultimately created in the public mind, as to the inordinate amount of that income, whether as compared with the incomes. of other professional classes, or with the services rendered by its possessors, an ecclesiastical commission was created in 1t331, the ostensible object of which was 'to institute "a full acd correct inquiry respecting the revenues and patronage belonging to the several archi episcopal and episcopal sees in England and Wales, and to all cathedral and collegate churches, and to all eccle siastical benefices, &c., with or without cure of souls, and the patrons thereof ;" but the real object of which was to make out a case for the beneficed clergy, by a series of the . most atrocious frauds, including the sup pression ,of truth, and the mis-statement of facts, ever yet brought under public notice and reprobation. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. POST.—An apprehension is expressed by our con• temporaries lest the importation of grain should be con tinued to an extent that might once more have the effect of distressing the Bank for gold. It is by some assumed that the quantity to be expected is a million quarters, which, at the average price of 50s. a quarter, would . stand the country in the sum of two millions and a half sterling. By others it is considered, in 'consequence of the constant rains we, have had, that nearly two, million quarters will have to be imported, and that orders for something like that quantity have been sent to the Con. tinent. It is known by the average returns; published of the liabilities and assets of the Bank that the amount of specie at this time in the eoffers of the corporation cannot exceed six millions, and the most prudent management on the part of the Directors is at so critical a moment declared therefore to be imperatively called for, impressed with the conviction that every quarter of wheat imported must be paid for in hard cash, and this within so short a period, that is to say immediately upon the termination of the continental harvests, that, without a most circumspect and provident Administra tion, the coffers of the Bank must inevitably be drained of their last sovereign before the end of the year. Opinions coming from writers so enlightened, and so well affected towards the institutions of the country, namely, writers whose views are identified with the masterly financial policy of the present Government, are doubtless entitled to the most respectful atten tion. They feel that the Bank of England cannot reasonably expect, after the offence given by . Lord Palmerston to the Thiers section of the French nation, to obtain any further temporary metallic accommo dation from the Bank of France. They think they have reason to fear, too, that the supplies of gold and silver from the mines of the western world will, from some unexplained cause or another, be just now less abundent than they have been; nor do we know that any well-grounded argument Can•be opposed to the general force of their conclusions. The Russian, Prussian, Aus trian, Belgian, Dutch, Neapolitan, and other loans have given occasi o n in former years for the transmission to this country of considerable sums of money for the pay ment of the Dividend Coupons falling p er i o di ca lly due. Whether these remittances are about to be suspended. as those which should come with equal regularity from Spain, Portugal, and the Spanish American States have been, or not, we aro unable positively to say,. but we rather think not. If, however, the infOr mation we receive from some of the more eminent foreign banking-houses in the City is to be be lieved, the capitalists of the Continent are, at the present time, investing co nsiderabl e sums of money in the solvent Securities circulating in the London market. This, admitting t h e f act to be as stated, willtend to diminish the acknowledged responsibilities of the Bank of England. To receive payment fur the cargoes of wheat sent to the British ports, in good and valid foreign Bonds, is at once a safe and convenient mode of exchange to resort to on the part of the shippers. The continued demand for railway material for continental purposes, seems also calculated to relieve, to a certain ex tent, the anticipated pressure upon our stores of bullion ind to the exportation of the coarser articles in, question, .t is not impossible that son* amount may be added in the shape of coals, hardware, Manchester goods, &c. Of the latter, indeed, our Contemporaries themselves allow that a plantity has gone to the Continent of late on consignment, and, though on consignment it be, the effect of such ex portations will be the same, so far as the Bank is con cerned, as if the property were shipped to order. Of the feelings by which. the directors of the Bank of France aro actuated towards the Bank of England, we have no precise means of ascertaining. It is not usual, however, for political misunderstandings between Minister and Minister to enter very deeply into the arrangements of purely commercial bodies ; so that, were the Bank of England greatly distressed for h million or two of gold, we-do not think it altogether impos sible that the Bank of France might be disposed, and even glad to advance it on the unquestionable guarantee of the dead weight annuity or Exchequer Bills. But assuming that there should -be any demur on the part of the Bank of France, it is to be recollected that there are other banks on the Con tinent abounding in treasure, even to an inconvenient excess, with which a drawing account might be opened. Some of these banks may . 13ecome candidates for the preference. An interest of three or four per cent. on their usually inactive reserves of metal would add an acceptable amount to their ordinary profits ; and upon the whole, taking things in the least encouraging point of view, we do not think there is any just cause for abso lute detZpoudency. The state of the weather•is,happily improving, and, from all accounts, little or no wheat has been laid - ; nor should we be, ustified in saying that the difficulties with which the Bank is threatened are, to our minds, anything like so imminent as those difficulties have been represented to•be.

The following statement has been sent to the Morning Post, as the case of William Duff, Esq., convicted, in conjunction with the Earl Waldegrave, of an assault on the police : Sta—l beg leave to inclose copies of a memoral and of affidavitsiot facts addressed to her Majesty, through the Secretary of State, by my brother, Mr. William Duff, now suffering imprisonment under sentence of the Court of Queen's Bench. I have to request that you will do me the favour to publish them in the co lumns of the Morning Post. My brother is believed by the world to be guilty of a most brutal assault ; of this he is antirely innocent, and the object I have in view is to .clear his character of a foul stain. The parties who really committed the offence are Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie, Baronet, and Mr. John Bell, the lately-elected Member for the borough of Thirsk, who have hitherto eluded detection and almost suspicion, and my brother has, unfortunately, from care lessness on his part, and mismanagement of his defence, been made their scapegoat. Sir W. Dixie was, accord ing to his own admission, the person who beat the police man on the head with a heavy stick, and Mr. J. Bell was the person who kicked him in the chest. I have invited them severally ky letter to come forward, take upon themselves the consequences of their own misdeeds, and clear my brother's character ; but this they have both positively refused to do. I have, therefore, no course left to me, having in view the vindication of my brother's character, than to submit the facts of the case to the judgment of the public. I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, FOLLIOT DUFF, 34th Regiment. Barracks, Gosport, August 13, 1841. IN THE QEEEN'S BENCH.-THE • REEEN AGAINST THE RIGHT HON. GEORGE EDWARD Iti..RL WALDEGRAVE AND WILLIAM DUFF, INDICTED FOR A:1 ASSAULT ON THE PROSECUTION OF CHARLES JOHN w;YATLEY. The on. Robert Grimston, of Grosvenor-sqi.. i 7tre , n the county of Middlesex, taketh oath and sr.itlis, that on the occasion of Lord Waldegrave's being taken into custody by the policeman at Hampton Wick, on the fourth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and Alrtk_ Mr. Duff repeatedly exclaimed, in the hearing of this deponent, ~ rray use -ho vuNeutx said Mr. Duff and this deponent, after Lord Waldo grave's release from the grasp of the policemen, beg ged the party to go home quietly. That the said Mr. Duff, in company with this deponent, immediately went towards home. That, in about ten minutes afterwards, this deponent and the said Mr. Duff, who had proceeded About a mile away from Kingston, were overtaken in a fly at full gallop by the party whom they had left be hind, and informed of the collision which had, in the mean time, taken place. And this deponent saith, that no blow had been struck by any one of the said party in the presence of this deponent, or to his knowledge and belief, and ytartieblarly •that the sAid..Mr. Duff did not strike or give a blow, or use any abusive language to the said policeman, or any other person there, whilst this deponent was in his company. - And that the said Mr.. Duff and this deponent were unconscious of the conflict which subsequently took place until they were informed thereof as aforesaid. • - IN THE QUEEN'S, BENCH.-THE QUEEN V. THE RIGHT HON. THE EARL OF WALDEGRAVE AND WILLIAM DUFF. William Duff, ihe defendant above-nained, being now confined as a prisoner in the Queen's Bench prisen, maketh oath and saith, that the whole of the allegations contained in the annexed petition of this deponent are true in substance and matter of fact. TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. The humble petition Qf Wm. Duff, a prisoner confined in the Qtieen's Bench Prison. MoSt humbly showeth—That your petitiOner is now nailer sentence from the Court of Queen's Bench, having been on the 3d of May last ordered to be imprisoned for the term of six months and to pay a fine of twenty pounds, and further to be imprisoned until such fine be paid, which sentence was so passed upon an indictment charging your. petitioner, jointly with the Right Hon. George Edward Earl Waldegrave, with assaulting one Charles John Wheatley, a constable of the Metropolitan Police Force, on the fifth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and forty, the statement in support of which charge is contained in the depositions on oath made by the prosecutor and witnesses before. the Magis trate, an official copy of which depositions your petitioner begs leave to refer to and to transmit with this his petition. That your petitioner is most anxious not•only not to deny any one of the facts connected with the charge upon which he stands convicted, and for which he is now suffering the sentence of the law, but also to disclose every . fact connected with the transaction which may in any degree bear and throw light upon the same, in the pe that the sentence which has hem passed upon your petitioner may be considered by your Most Gracious Majesty, and that such mitigation as the circumstances may warrant may be afforded in the pre mises. That, although your humble petitioner does not deny his association with his; co-defendant and other parties, on the evening and at the place deposed to by the pro secutor, he most positively denies any participation in, or even having been present at, the infliction of the vio lence which became the subject of this' charge; he, your petithiner, together with a friend, (the Ildn: Robert Grimston) having parted company from the Earl Wal &grave and his other companions before such violence (so proved to have taken place) did take place ; and for the purpose of proving such assertion clearly, your humble petitioner takes leave to draw your Most Gra cious Majesty's attention to the following statement of facts, viz.-- Your petitioner, together with the Earl of Walde grave, the Hon. Robert Grimston, Mr. Bell, of Thirsk, Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie, and Mr. Connolly, of the sth Dragoon Guards (being six in number), attended Epsom Races on the 4th of June 1840, and afterwards returned and dined with the said Earl Waldegrave, rt his house at Strawberry-hill, where your petitioner is obliged to admit that much wine had been taken. After dinner it was proposed to go to Kingston fair, and about eleven o'clock the whole of the said party departed toge ther in a hired carriage, called a fly, for that place ; and after having been in the town of Kingston, and as they were returning towards Strawberry-hill, the carriage stopped opposite the Swan Inn, at Hampton Wick, and the whole party got out. YOur petitioner went across the road to a house (which it has since appeared was occupied by a woman who keeps a mangle, but which fact your petitioner did not then know) to read the signboard over the said house, but your petitioner did not try to open the door of the said house, as has been erroneously supposed by the wit ness for the prosecution. At this time police sergeant Churchill came on horse back from towards Kingston-bridge, and Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie went up to him, and began a conversa• tion with him, and shortly afterwards your petitioner and the Earl Waldegrave joined the said Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie, and the said police sergeant, and cer tainly heard the said Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie, who had first began the conversation, using s ome a b us i ve language towards ' him the said police sergeant ; but your petitioner positively asserts that neither himself nor said Earl Waldegrave used any abusive or offensive lan guage whatever towards said police sergeant, nor did either of them interfere with him, except that while speak ing to him your petitioner, inadvertently and without any offensive intention, laid his hands on the bridle of the sa id police sergeant's horse, which the said police ser geant desired your petitioner not to do, and your peti tioner instanfly desisted. At this time John Wheatley (the prosecutor) came up, and sergeant Churchill directed' hi m (Wheatley) to throw his light upon your petitioner and the rest of the party, and to goo-the aeitily pad PRICE 5d look fo: the rest of the party, and to go to the said fly and look for the owner's name ; upon which said Earl Waldegrave, your petitioner, and said other parties went towards the said carriage - with the intention and for the purpose of setting off and going home ; and when the .said Charles John Wheatley attempted to look at the name on the carriage, the Earl Waldegrave pushed him aside, whereupon sergeant Churchill called to the said Charles John Wheatley, " Take them into custody," or words to that effect ; and thereupon the said Charles John Wheatley seized the Earl Waldegrave by the col lar, and after a short scutlie threw his Lordship down upon the ground. Your petitioner, thereupon. assisted, with Mr. Grim ston, in getting said Earl Waldegrave out of the hands of the said Charles John Wheatley, by opening or un clenching the hand of the saidrharles John Wheatley, who so held the said Earl Waldegrave, but no blow whatever was struck by any of the party in so disen gaging the said Earl from the policeman's grasp. That when the said Earl was so released, the policeman ad vised the whole party to go home quietly, and your pe titioner and his friend, the Hon. Robert Grimston, con sidering such advice proper, determined to follow it, and they both joined in such advice ; but finding an in disposition in the rest of the party to follow such recom mendation, your petitioner expressed his determination to leave them, and immediately went away towards Strawberry Hill on foot, together with the said Robert Grimston, and left the place entirely, your petitioner's other four friends remaining behind with the carriage, and in pa'ilvy with the policeman. Your,petitioner and Mr. Grimston having proceeded (walking leisurely) about a mile on the road between Hampton Wick and Strawberry fill, were overtaken by the said carriage, the said Earl. Mr. Connolly, and Mr. Bell being therein, and Sir Willoughby Wolston Dixie „being on the box, and by them your petitioner and his friend, the said Mr. Grir,:ton, were informed of the violence which had taken place, and the injuries which had .been inflicted on the said Charlea..John Wheatley, after your petitioner and his friend, Mr. Grimston, had left their said companions ; and but for such informat tion your petitioner would have been quite unconscious' of any violence whatever having been used towards the person of the said Charles John Wheatley, or any other person. That from the above facts it will be manifest that although your humble petitioner was present before and up to, and while the Earl of Waldegrave was collared by the prosecutor, and assisted in disengaging his Lordship from the hold of the policeman, your petitioner was not present during any part of the affray which con stituted the grave part of the charge for which he has been sentenced; and in part proof of your petitioner's statement, he takes leave humbly to refer to the deposi tions sworn by the prosecutor and witnesses before the Magistrate when first this matter was investigated, a copy of which depositions, as before stated, accompany ing this petition, and on reference to which it will be seen by the evidence of the witnesses Churchill and Wheatley that they speak of four gentlemen only, evidently im pressed with the belief that there were four only, be cause there were only four remaining when the outrage was committed, although originally there had been six persons present, including your petitioner and the Hon. Robert Grimston. It will also be found that the said Charles Churchill also speaks of Lord Waldegrave as the person who first accosted him, when in truth it was Sir Wil loughby Wolston Dixie who so accosted him, and used the offensive language he complains of. He also de scribes your petitioner to have tried to unbuckle the throat-band of his bridle, which, on his part, was a mis apprehension, your petitioner having merely placed his hand inoffensively on the bridle, and removed it on its being noticed by the said Charles Churchill ; and it will be observed further, upon reading such deposition, that the said Charles Churchill does not depose to having witnessed any act of violence, and that he did not consi der that any breach of the peace had been committed up to the time of his comrade Wheatley going to the car• riage and taking hold of one of your petitioner's compa nions ; for in such deposition he says as follows :—" The other three wished him not to hurt their friends, and I rode away to Kingston to get further assistance, as I an ticipated a breach of the peace." And upon reference to the evidence of the said Charles Wheatley, it will be seen that he also speaks of four per sons only, and lie describes the scuffle in which he re ceived the blows to have been after Sergeant Churchill had gone for assistance, for he says, " I called out for the sergeant, but he v: as not there." That such being the evidence, in which there was, in deed, scarcely any proof of your petitioner's identity, he was advised to permit the trial to proceed, it being con sidered there was no sufficient proof of his having been concerned in the outrage, and which want of proof was increased bk the fact of your petitioner having been taken into custody. and identified, as the fact was, by mistake, as Lord Waldegrave, although his Lordship was present at the time ; but your petitioner felt that it w ag- li zore respedtful to the justice of the country and more cbrt:lstent w ith • the , character of a gentleman to a dmit. such Tharticipatiovs..kc.really had had in an affair . where a 5 -,Arat p and for this reason he insisted on withdrawing rge prea which his attorney had caused in a formal manner to be pleaded to the indictment, in the hope that by represent ing to the Court how far your petitioner was really im plicated, it would have had due weight •, and with that view your petitioner made an affidavit of the facts to be laid before the Court, but he did not feel at liberty, nor did he think it necessary, to disclose the names of the gentlemen who were his companions, and for that rea son, namely, omitting to disclose the names of his com panions, it was, as your petitioner understood, that no distinction was made in the sentence passed upon your petitioner and his co=defendant, the Earl of Waldegra.ve. That your petitioner most deeply and sincerely re grets the injury that was sustained by the said Charles John Wheatley ; and although it was not inflicted by your petitioner, or in his presence, or with his privity, yet, as he had - been originally one of the party from whom the injuries were received, your petitioner would very willingly have contributed, as far as in him lay, to have made ample compensation ; but the whole matter was left by your petitioner in the hands of the legal ad visers of Lord Waldegrave, to take such steps as they s hould think prudent, your petitioner on his part not having employed any separate solicitor. That yOni4 petitioner is the more anxious to have the above facts ins.estigated, as although he will not and has not for a moment denied the ex peest of his share in the unfortunate transaction, yet he atent stands in the eyes of his relations and friends a person guilty of the whole facts alleged against the most guilty parties by the prosecutor an d his witnesses tnu ;_ and for these reasons, and the hope that somecomniai of punish ments_ra may take clac . e, your petitioner humbly at prae for further and fuller. inquiry, by which it can be made clearly to appear w guilty perpetrators of an who ,:ere petu lion the f is now suffering.—And offence for which your your petitioner shall ever pray. • SPAIN AND THE ....POPE. vNE „, CY IN MANIFESTO OF TilE SPANISH POPE. ANSWER TO THE ALLOCUTION OF H. (CONTINUED.) The prelates hesitated to interfere to check those cesses, being in doubt as to the wishes and intentions of the Holy Father, ;so that the fault of what occurred must be Justly attributed to the unworthy conduct of the ecclesiastics, and the silence of their superior pastors. These considerations, so just and of such serious conse quence, which can never be qualified but as irreligioUs and revolutionary, never had any influence on the mind of his Holiness. He produced his complaint, showing great concern at the prompt and continued executions to which the ecclesiastic's were condemned, as when taken with arms in their hands they merited no other consi deration than any other rebels. Time was thus lost in useless negotiations, without a step being made in advance in this question. Different churches of the kingdom being without Bishops, the Government lost not a mo ment in providin g for their wants, and present e d to hi s Holiness wise and virtuous ecclesiastics, which it consi dered worthy of filling the vacant situations. The cus tom in those :cases is not to defer the confirmation' of either the nominations or the expedition of the bulls, in order that the flock of Christ should not remain for toO long a time deprived of their spiritual pastor ; instead of proceeding thus, the Holy See obstinately refused to fulfil this imperious duty, sometimes by the aid of theo logical subtleties, at others' from interested views dis guised under the cloak of a benevolent concession. The first difficulty arose as to the formula of presentation, without prejudicing the question of the dynasty, which had been left to be decided by th e f ate o f arms in the Peninsula. In vain did the Government, faithful to the system of condescension which it had adopted, propose different formula in which, by the omission of the name of the priest, the difficulties were removed and the tem poral interests of the Holy Father secured. The Court of Rome rejected all these proposals, first on one pre tence and the n on another. At length it proposed a means which appeared to it the best adapted to the cir cumstances of the case. It consented to omit in the bulls all presentation, saying that the Holy Father granted this as a voluntary act of apostolic faith, finally declaring that his Holiness would make a separate official declara tion on the subject. The trap was skilfully laid, but not sufficiently so for the Government to fall into it. In vir tue of the most respectable titles established by canonical law—titles recognised in the most so lemn manner by the SovereignXontiffs at all periods —her Ma j est y found her self inconlfttibly invested with the Church patronage of her kingdom, and it would be impolitic and dishonourable for the Government of Isabella to give its consent to the positive and public violation of this right. Why, there fore, propose to guarantee it by a separate declaration, which would have the air of being a concession ? It was to avoid difficulties that the Spanish Govern ment has gone to the very limit of forbearance conarstent with its duty ; it can go no further without showing itself wanting in dignity, respect for the rights of the nation, and the prerogative of the Crown. It had come to the resolution to receive no more bulls of confirmation for a ny Bishop, unless there was an express mention made therein recognising the right of patronage of the Crown. The consequence of a continued interruption of friendly relations of a Catholic kingdom with the Sovereign Pontiff might be disastrous ; but the responsibility would rest on those who had heaped difficulty on difficulty, and refused even to come to an equitable adjustment of the subject in dispute. We have claimed at a proper time the exercise of legitimate rights, and have carried pur deference for religion and the tranquillity of the State to its utmost extent in observance of the laws of I the Monarchy . and the venerable discipline of the Church. Ilfracombe, Aug. 14, 1841. , _ _ EVENING su N. There remained nothing to f,..- part of the Government of her - '.,iajesty, answer to this effect was given tivtlie court . Of :Rome. The Nuncio received his passports, and all negotiation was at an end. As it was the Sovereign Pontiff who refused, as a Prince, to recognise her Majesty as the legitimate heiress of the Throne of her ancestors, and.also refused, in his quality of Spiritual Father of the Faithful, to suppl the wants of the Church in Spain, and, not content with this prolonged resistance, raised his voice in the Consis tory to attack the supreme authority of the State, anraz its acts, and assert his superiority over one who does no even acknowledge him as an equal, it is himself who 'ha set up a wall of separation between the two Courts, and closed the dogr to all friendly relations and every species of compromise. The violent allocution of the Hol y Father can only be regarded as a declaration of wKr against Queen Isabella 11., against the safety of th State, and against the Constitution. It is truly a mani festo in favour of the conquered and expelled Pretender; it is a scandalous excitement to schism. discord, disorder, and revolt. Thu Government of her Majesty cannot, without a breach of loyalty and honour, be silent unda this enormous attempt. It cannot refrain from employ ing for its repression all the just . means placed in its hands by reason, propriety, the discipline of the Church, and the power of a great and noble nation so shamefully insulted. FRANK PROTECTION in TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 21.—A circumstance, trifling in itself, but productive of considerable sensation amongst the diplomatic corps, has occurred within the last fort night. The facts, which appear to involve a scrioLs question, as regards the right assumed by France to the exclusive protectorate of Christian establishments - in the Ottoman Empire, are nearly as follow : A benevolent society, composed of Frank merchants and master tradesmen of all countries, supported by ,vo luntary contributions, collected here and in various -.Eu ropean cities, and aided by a most liberal donation from the Sultan himself, has been formed at Para. - This so ciety has met with so much success that it has been en abled to purchase some little property, and to creet thereon an hospital and house of refuge for sick and des titute Franks. The operations of the institution are regulated by sta tutes, and the immediate administration is confided to a t - committee, whose deeisions are, however, subject to revi sion, and reversion in the event of a general meeting being convened, and a rotest to that effect being signed by thirty members.,., isTow,•it Appears eapt,,op, socity,— considering, and considoring -Just ly,that it-had 'rettaiii.yd a sufficimt degree of importance and ex - tension not oaly to be worthy of collective'ambassndorial protection, but that it Would derive additional weight and security from such protection, determined to call a meeting for the purpose of deciding upon thehest mode of obtaining this general patronage. - Upon this the Committee, principally composed at the moment of• - French- subjects, and stimulated, as it is affirmed, by the Lazarist missionaries, took upon itseit; without consulting other members, to frame and present an address to the French Ambassador, soliciting his exclusive prOtection. This request soon received a fa vourable and— obliging reply, settinc , forth his Excel lency's satisfec lion at being enabled') to contribute to a • purpose so essentially benevolent, and so perfectly ac cordant with those ancient stipulations by which France had been invested in the sole right of protecting all the Christian establishments in the East. No sooner, however, did the members of the institu tion hear of this act of their Committee, and of Monsieur de Pontois's reply, than they loudly condemned the for mer, and forthwith convened a general meeting, at which resolutions were passed. 1. -Declaratory of their • unqualified disapprobation of the Committee having taken upon themselves to convert into a case of • individual and exclusive patronage that which the heterogeneous composition and consequent in terests of the society required to be general and collective. 2. Declaring that the proceedings - of the Coin mittee should be reversed, the Committee displaced, and that an application should be made to the whole • diplo matic corps, praying them to become the collective, as well as individual patrons of a society to which all their fellow-subjects, especially those of Austria, were contri butors to a greater or lesser amount. 3. It was resolved that a letter should be addressed to M. de Pontois, en closing copies of the statutes, and resolutions founded thereon; at •the same time, not only disclaiming all inten tion of giving the slightest offence to his Excellency, but earnestly requesting him to accord to the Society that protection, as a Member of the Collective Diplomatic Corps, which he had so obligingly p rom i se d in his indi vidual position, as representative of France. To this document, which dmibtless caused some sur prise to M. de Pontois, his. Excellency returned an im mediate reply, stating that he considered the application ofthe Committee as perfectly legal; that he looked upon that Committee as fully empowered to act as it had dune, and that -he could not consent to-withdraw or alter the character of a protection, as honourable.: to the persons claiming it as it would be agreeable to7the King of the French, whose predecessors had, for more th an t h ree cepturies, been invested with the noble mission of pro tetting Christianity within the Ottoman empire. The latter observation, if made by M. Pontois, alluded t& the convention entered into between the Grand Signor - and Francis I. in 1525 ; renewed in 1673 with Louis XIV., and again guaranteed in 1796 to the Directory, by which France was recognized by the Porte as "- sole pro tectress of Christianism in the East." M. de Pontois's reply was far, however, from satisfy ing the society; fifty of whose members, that is more than half, had r.- .1.- ~s otest. They conseilimitiy •:.-7-rroaledbtertnination, _ and at a general Meeting took measures to - forward a copy of their proceedings individually and collectively to the whole corps diplomutique. From the preponde rating number of Austrian subjeCts connected with the institution, Baron Sturmer's attention was the most pointedly called to the subject, and it is reported that a meeting of diplomatists was held at the Austrian Palace at Buytikdere, when it was resolved 'that, without en tering' into the fond de la . question, each member should assure the subjects of his respective Sove reign of his direct protection; and protest against the right of any Power to interfere with, or to attempt to assume to itself the right of according protec tion to any but the subjects of its own country, assuring the society, at the same time, that the collective body would be eager to offer its protection in any way that might be useful to the general interest of the institution. Baron Sturmer, so at least it is reported, went still fur ther, acting with the vigour that became the represen tative of a great nation. He declared that he would not recognise the right of Austrian subjects to apply for the protection of any other Sovereign, and that if any of these subjects should demand such protection, they must consider themselves as having forfeited all claim to the protection of their own Government. It is understood to be the determination of Lord Ponsonby to act in a simi lar manner, and the rest of the foreign Envoys have also expressed their disapprobation of their countrymen ap plying for protection to any other Power than the repre sentative of their own Sovereign. Thus matters rest for the present. The most unplea sant feature of this affair is to . see France again placed in an isolated position. This individuality was not e'er. , tainly of her own seeking. It resulted from the indis cretion of thoSe who, in taking a step totally opposed to the wishes and interests of the society, were not aware, perhaps, of the unpopularity and inipolicy of seeking to place an institution of this general . character under the exclusive patronage of any single Power—especially of a Power which, although it may claim rights of protection over spiritual establishments in virtue of ancient, but ex parte conventions, can have no more title to extend this supremacy to temporal institutions, than it has to claim the power of granting passports to the subjects of other • tiOnS. 5., is was 1i ,.. - nust be obs erve d a t th e same ti me th a t 3L de Pon to I.

"--°-, __ REGISTRATION of VOTERS.,- VERY IMPOBTANT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—Pray remind those who are about to make ob jections to parties on the list of Freemen of Otie3 and Boroughs of the very unportant provision in the 33d Section of the Reform Act, 2 Will. IV., C. 45 which enacts, That e very, reeTan pr liveryman shall :far erer right y voting .1 ( ' his name shall have r i4C two successive years 7;r:ln the Register of i c ) c e a en se otoiitetnejd'ofoy Voters." This is indeed important ; but has not been s z..(liciently attended to. Mind ; if a freeman be two successive years off thel Register he can never legally be put on again, nor ever e v rs ote loo a l s t a well ee trt n his-point ; the free 'aftie]r e - t be t h e : entitled to free men have been their worst enemies. I am, Sir, yours, &c. R. W. D. FAILURES IN LIVERPOOL.—We are assured that there 'is no truth in the statement which we copied from a Manchester paper, that a house had failed in Liverpool, which owed a Joint-Stock Bank 100,0001. Three or four failures have occurred in that town within the last fortnight, but the liabilities of the highest in amount do nut exceed 50,0001., and there are, it is said, assets which, if realized, will enable the parties to pay 20s. in the pound, and leave a surplus. The liabi lities of another are stated at 16,0001., and of a third, at not more than 7,000/.--( Times, of Friday.) We are sorry to have to add another failure to the above. The house held a large ,quantity of cotton, which, if forced on the market in its present state, would have caused a. serious loss. They preferred suspending for a time, and hope, ultimately, to meet all their engagementi. We may remark, chat the stock of cotton now held in Liverpool is larger than was ever before known. Its value is variously estimated at from five and a half to six and a half millions sterling.--Liverpool CHURCHISAL—The Bible must be exhausted at Trinity Church, Southport, us two lectures were deli vered there last Lord's Day on "'Tie Book of Common Prayer." A learned clergyman in Maine was accosted in the following manner by an illiterate preacher who de spised education :—" S ir, y ou have been to College, I suppose ?" " Yes Sir , " was the reply.
