Vi r e condemn °la ,y as no better th an P opery ; b u t if its ' Qnl erit he that it evades the Thirty-nine Articles, and disregards the statutes of the Uni versity, the people at large will think it an honourable faith. We have seen nothing yet so calculated to raise it in general estimation as the censure of the University because it is a depar ture from the statutes of Oxford. There is, however, one matter of great import ance connected with this heresy. It is said that one Bishop at Least has embraced it. That it has its seat at Oxford is unquestioned ; and that those who teach it have also the formation of the minds and theology of a large portion of the junior clergy is undoubted. Being men of learn ing, piety, and zeal, they have great influence over the young priests; and we, .therefore, readily believe that the heresy has already tainted a great number of the clergy. The Church is not only rent into factions, it is corrupted by heresy. But while a large body of the priesthood have, according to several Bishops, and according to the heads of houses, fallen away from the true orthodox Church, the clergy as a body, with all the persons they can influence, are getting up petitions to the Legislature for the extension of the Church. The Legislature and the public will now, however, require to know whether. Puseyism is to be extended at the expense of the the State, or the true orthodox faith. Is the public money to be given, at the solicitation of Oxford, to teach the errors which Oxford de nounces? Curiously enough, the very post which brings us the anathema of the heads of houses against. Puseyism, brings us also a peti tion for Church Extension, agreed to at a Con vocation of the University of Oxford, holden on Friday last. On the one hand, the University denounces the errors of a large body of the priesthood; and, on the other, it prays the State ti advance funds to propagate them over the laud. , He proposed then to reduce the duty upon all those articles to from 'l2 to 15 per cent. ad valorem.' As fish constituted the principal supply of fa-d for the Negro population, it was in th e hi g h es t d egree un j ust to limit that supply to one single, and frequently a very narrow market." Is not wheat-corn the staple food of our people ? Is there no reason in the growing skill of fo reign countries for pacing our country on a foot ing with the manufacturing countries of the Conti nent? Is there not in the present starving condi tion of our people an all-sufficient reason for placing them on a more liberal footing with regard to the supply ofprovisions? And is it not, to use the language of Mr. LABOUCHERE, " in the highest degree unjust to limit their supply to one single, and frequently a very narrow, market ?" We are at a loss to conceive how any gentleman who urges these reasons for making a Cabinet measure of some petty alterations in colonial duties, can refuse to make a Cabinet measure of the repeal of the Corn-laws and the timber duties. We cannot understand how Mr. LA BOUCHERE, if such be . his opinions, can, with any peace, •or with any satisfaction to his own con science, consent to remain a member of a Cabi net which proposes no similar measure to redress the much greater wrongs ofthe people of Enoa,nd. Either the Cabinet should not have allowed Mr. LABOUC,HERE to bring forward his measure rela tive to -the Colonies, or it must, as we believe and hope it will, propose measures founded on the same pri;:ciples, b u t more extensive and sweeping, for the suff er i ng p e op l e of England. In another part of our Journal will be found the Report of 'a meeting held at Salford for the revision of the _tariff. Like the meeting at Liver pool, it was attended by both Whigs and Torivi, and the resolutions were passed unanimously. The Ministers are sure of their Own friends throughout the' country, and when they see their opponents coming forward to petition for the re vision of the tariff, they will surely take heart, and, after Easter, propose a large and liberal measure. Some of the statements of this petition, consi dering whence they come, and considering the prevalence of dissensions in the Church, are very remarkable. At present the Church of England is undoubtedly the richest Christian Church in the world. The University of Oxford has more funds at its command for teaching reli gion than any known University; and the result of all these advantages possessed by the University and the Church, according to the petition of the University, is " that irreligion and ignorance, de moralisation and disunion, have very exten sively increased in England and Wales." In spite, however, of all this irreligion, im morality, and demoralisation existing with our enormous Church Establishment, the only re medy which the Convocation of Oxford can de vise is more Church, and of course more l'u- We direct the attention of our readers to the proceedings of a select few of the Middlesex, Magi:Lutes to obtain for nr. Sergeant ADAMS and his successors, as Chairmen of the Middlesex Sessions, 4000/. a year out of the county rate. The notice of the Bill, which intimates the in tention to apply to Parliament for powers to en able the Justices to break up the establishment of the New Prison, sell the site and inaterials thereof, and apply the proceeds - in aid of the county rates, appears to have totally escaped the recollection of these worthy Justices in their pe tition, and in the Bill which they have applied for, and which is now in progress, under the pa ternal care of Col. WOOD, Member for Brecon, and Sir JAMES DUKE, Member for Boston. seyism. The Convocation - says, " The only safe, ade quate; and constitutional remedy for the growing evil is the expansion of the National Church, in full proportion to the spiritual wants of the whole community." But what guarantee, let us ask, can the Convocation give us that the expansion of the Church will not increase the evil corn ined of? It may multiply PuseyitesandPopery. The want of religion exists in conjunction with a well-endowed Church, and may be traced to that as its cause. The same result was in fact pro duced in France before the Revolution, in Spain, in Italy, and in Portugal. Germany and Scot land were saved from it by destroying the gigan tic Papal Church. The hollow pretences of the priesthood, and their empty forms, disgust men with what they call religion. Their greediness, grasping after wealth in all possible ways, and even appropriating to themselves the funds des tined for the poor, have spread greediness amongst the people. They have pandered to the vices of the rich and the great, and have scourged only the poor and the humble. To their bad example, the salt of the earth Laving lost its savour, may be traced the demo ralisation and corruption of which they com plain; and yet they would have the Legislature expand the C4urch and increase the mischief. Experience supplies no guarantee of success from the theory they advocate, and they ought to supply some proof of its goodness before they have the boldness to make such applications. The Convocation, however, tells the House of Commons with great fervour, as if it had been admitted to the council of the ALMIGHTY, and was commissioned to bear His mandate to princes and lawgivers, that it must comply with the prayers of the Convocation, or the nation will be visited with anarchy. TORQUEM A DA, the Grand Inquisitor, would scarcely use different language from this, — Your petitioners, therefore, with all humility, but with the utmost earnestness, pray your Honourable House to direct your early and mos' serious attention to the spiritual destitu tion of England and Wales, in order to take the most prompt and effectual measures for its relief, to secure the country, under Divine Providence, from the fatal effects of vice, anarchy, and irreligion, and seek His favour, by whom alone princes reign and kingdcms are preserved. • If the House of Commons, therefore, does not endow more priests, the nation will be plunged into anarchy. So these impudent men try to threaten the RepreSentatives of the nation out of the public funds to enrich themselves. Such proceedings, , combined with the heresy which prevails in the Church, supply much food for reflection. Impudence and inutility seem to go hand in hand. Like the landlords, whom we can well spare, they have the hn pudence to tell this great nation—the millions of ingenious and skilful men, who sup ply each other's wants, who form each 'an indispensable part in a great natural system of combination, by- which the whole are sub sisted, which is not, in fact, confined to any poli tical boundaries, but extends across the Atlantic, the cotton-grower of Carolina being as much a part of it as the spinner of Manchester and the weaver of Carlisle—these Puseyites and anti- Puseyites, who cannot agree amongst themselves, have the astounding impudence to tell the Legis lature, and to threaten it, that this wonderful system, which no man ever contrived, though men exercise it, will fall into vice, anarchy, and irreligion, unless their wealth and numbers, al ready astoundingly great, be increased. Con sidering how little these men know of what is good either for society or themselves, and con sidering the present quarrels amongst them selves, which ought to teach them humility, this petition of the Convocation of the University of 'Oxford is as great a piece of impudence as ever . fell under our notice. If Mr. NEWMAN, who by his letter seems imbued with the humble spirit of a Christian„ could teach the Convocation a little modesty, he would confer a great benefit on its members and on society. Madrid Papers to the 10th inst., have reached us. There was a report that four bankers of that city had offered to lend the Government ninety millions of reals, but the conditions were not made public. Senor RAMON CALATRAVA has been nominated Under-Secretary of the Finance department. The Funds were heavy. The Fives were down to 274 for cash. Belgian and German Papers of the latest dates have reached us this morning. The follow ing extracts from them will be found interesting: BRUSSELS, MARCH 14.—The pleadings in the affair of D'Herbigny and Buckeljau were closed yesterday afternoon. The Jury, after twenty minutes' consideration, declared F. C. Bucke.jau guilty of having, by publishing in the Messager de Gard, an article headed " Conduct of the Orangists," publicly and maliciously attacked the constitutional authority of the King and the constitutional rights of his dynasty. The public prosecutor required the app'ication of the pe nalty pronounced by Act 3 of the Decree of the 20th of July, 1831, respecting the Press (i. e., imprisonment for not less than six months her more than three years). The Court con demned Mr. Buckeljau to two years' imprisonment and the costs. It seems that he int;nds to appeal to the Court of Cas saticn. The discussion in tie Senate in opposition to Ministers this afternoon assumed a new and grave character.. Twelve senators, upon motion, formed themseiv,s into a Secret Committee, in which was read the draft of an address to the King, praying him " to modify or change the present Cabinet, which had not the confidence of the Chambers. ' At the desire of the Minis ter of Justice the discussion upon this address was postponed till to-morrow, and it is probable that at the opening of the sitting to-morrow an ordinance will be read for the dissolution of the two Chambers. This afternoon, at a general meeting of the shareholders of the Belgian Bank, it was unanimously decided to raise the ca pital of that estabishment from twenty to thirty millions. The Cologne Gazette contains a letter from Biberick, of the 10th of March, which says—"l am able to announce to you on positive information that news has arrived tO•day by express, that the German Diet has decided that the Government of Hesse Darmstadt must remove the stone barrier which it hes mad? in the Rhine, and must commence the work to-day or to morrow." Vitextia Mute's S.—The A rc hd u k e F er di nand, returning from Syria: by way of Trieste and Venice, arrived h ere ester day afternoon f l uite pri va t e l y , and received a rnest joyful - u el come from the Imperial family. The public are looking for an opportunity to manifest the interest they feel in the hou of the young Prince,. who is in the enjoyment of perfect health.

We have received the whole of the Paris Journals of Tuesday. On that day Baron Mou- NIER read the report of the Commission on the Fortifications' Bill in the Chamber of Peers. • The Dukes of ORLEANS and NEMOURS were pre sent, and a large assemblage of the Peerage. The reading of the report produced the liveliest sensation, and we certainly do not wonder at it. It commenced by stating that in the opinion of the majority of the Commission the plan of sur rounding Paris with impregnable fortresses was absurd and impossible. That no walls would enable Paris to stand a siege, and that the proper place for defending France was on the frontier. The plan of fortifying Paris, proposed by the De puties, the Commission were persuaded would be injurious to France in a commercial and poli tical point of view. Neither free trade rior free institutions were compatible with bastions and towers, which were everywhere - disappearing be fore the march of modern civilisation and the authority of the law. The Commission had therefore rejected the continuous line of walls, with ramparts and bastions; but, in conformity with the wish of the Chamber of Deputies, which required some works to be undertaken, recommended the following_ amendment of the 2d article of the Bill: Art. H. The works shall consist, 1. Of works casemated and gorged, and supported by St. Denis, Charenton, the heights of Ivry, and Mount Valerien. 2. Of an enceinte de surete (protecting wall), embracing the two banks of the Seine. A Correspondent has suggested that in the comparison we yesterday drew between the du ties levied on corn at home and the Colonies, we did injustice to our cause. We took the price of corn at New York and the price of wheat in England as the basis of our estimate of the rela tive amount of the duty in the Colonies and in England; but we ought, he says, to have taken either the price of flour in the Colonies; which is nearer 30s. than 20s. the barrel, or the price of wheat on the Continent, which is at least 30 per cent. lower than here. We believe our Corre spondent is correct, and his estimate would ag gravate the difference we yesterday pointed out from 20 to 30 per cent., making the case to that amount, more than we stated, unfavourable to England. Now that our attention is again called to the subject we shall beg leave to give a prominent place to the reasons Mr. LABOUCHERE assigned for reducing the provision duties in the Colonies, and, at the same time, to ask our readers if these reasons do not apply with at least equal force to England : " He now came to a far more important class of duties—a class far more affecting the interests of the West Indies—the specific duties laid upon particular articles. As he had before stated the duties imposed at present upon beef, pork, shingles, and foreign articles of that description amounted to ,a duty varying from 20 to 40 per cent. ad valorem; in many in stances it was 40 per cent. When they comider that some of these articles were the food of the colony; that others such as staves, wei e absolutely necessary to conduct their only manu facture, that of sugar ; they must see that these duties were perfectly immoderate and oppressive, especialy if they consi dered that steps are now being taken for placing these colonies on a footing with the East Indies. As he had upon a former occasion urged upon the House the propriety of doing justice to the Ea s t Indies by doing away with the duties which were injurious to them, so now he felt bound to urge upon the House the propriety of putting the West Indies upon a more liberal footing with regard to the supply of provisions. He proposed, therefore, to reduce all these duties very much ; at the same ti:ne, he did not deal with them in the same way as Le would have done if he had been imposing them for the ih st time ; he would in such a case have proposed them much lower, but as they had already been established, he thought it was their duty to be cautious of the interests now engaged. The adoption of this amendment the Noble Reporter stated would effect a saving to the country of forty-five millions of francs. When the report was read there was quite a hubbub among the Peers. The courtiers were up in arms against it. Nevertheless it was or dered to be printed, and to be taken into con sideration on Tuesday next. Immediately after wards the following Peers inscribed their names to speak against the Amendment of the. Corn- T: iScion COIGN V, Rossi, ST. SVION, BEATr, MASI:WA TrAitno tT, C0t7;•:311.k, and PELET ; and in favour of the Amendment, MOLE, D'ALTOU, SHEE, NOAILLES, CASTEL-. THE SUN, LONDO:'--sr, THUIVMAY, MARCH N. 1 41 LAINE, DE FEZENZAC, VIENNET, GUATIER, DUPIN, and D'HARCOURT. The conversation in the House of Commons on the 12th inst., relative to the Eastern Question, occupy a prominent place in the Paris Papers of Tuesday. A sum mary of what they say on the subject will be found in another part of The Sun. REPRESENTATIVE REFOR2I.—The proposition of NM. Maa g in and P ages to reduce the number of pa id f unct i onar i es in the Chamber of Deputies was submitted to the bureaux on Tuesday. Its discussion was authorized, and we shall there fore have an important debate on this first step to electoral re form. 141. Thiers, in his bureau, supported M. Mauguin's motion. M. Duchatel, the Minister of the Interior, spoke s'rongly against the proposed diminution. Three bureaux au thorized the discusaun of the motion, six opposed it, but, as three bureaux suffice to enable a proposition to be debated at a public sitting, it will come before the Chamber .in due course. M. Mauguin's plan excludes Prefects, Sub-Prefects, Receivers- General of Finances, General Officers (Military and Naval) in active service, Magistrates who arc Judges of the superior Courts, and the Under -Secretaries of the various Ministeries, &c. The motion will meet with the decided opposition of the Government. COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH HOLLAND.—The Constitu -1 tionnel states, that serious objections are raised in the commis sion of the Cha m b er to the Treaty of Commerce with Hol land. The principal art:cle of this Treaty 't:tpens the Rhine to Colonial produce, and makes Rotterdam the great cotton market for Mulhausen and the east of France, instead of Havie as hitherto. H avre an d i ts i nterests are .strongly opposed to this change. Railroads alone can make Havre compete with Rotterdam. TARSUS.—The most perfect tranquillity prevails in the districts of Tarsus and Adana. The Turkish troops sent from Anatolia to garrison this town have arrived. It is about a month since the English resident at Tarsus has taken possession of his post. He was brought by an English sloop of war, which, after landing him, his suite and baggage, immediately sailed. The new Governor of the province of Tarsus ( Habib Bey) is seventy years of age. He is a sworn foe to Mehemet Ali. The Augsburgh Gazette has a letter from Athens, stating that M. Mavrocordao has been recalled from London to take the office of President of the Council, and that M.

By a Royal decision of the 13th inst., Rear-Admiral Laine was invested with the commend of the French naval forces in Algeria, in the room of Rear-Admiral Baron de Bougainville. Letters from Toulon, of the 10th iost., state that reinforce ments daily arrived in that h ar b our , a n d that upwards of 4,000 men were then wait* to be embarked for Algeria. The Scipion ship of the lice had already sailed with 953, and the Didon frigate with 590. Five sail cf the line were to convey the rest to Algiers between the 15th and 20th. There were then 44 armed vessels of all sizes lying in the roads and har bour of Toulon. Letters from Frankfort of the 12th of March contain the follow.ng passages : Lcttcrs from Strasburg of the Sth of March state that the garriscn of that city, as w(llas those of the other cities in the department of the Lower Rhine, are going decidedly to be re d.iced to the peace establishment. Orders, which have been received from Paris, leave no doubt on this 'point, - and it is hoped that in consequence Germany will nut delay to begin to disarm."— Gazatte de France. A letter from Valparaiso, of the sth of December, brings news of the fate of the Dclpl}ine merchantman, Captain Coisy, which left Havre a year ago, and had not since been heard of. It appeared that she was wrecked on the 10th aJune,lB4o, on the island 6f Campana, 140 leagues south of Chiloe. Fortu nately the whole c.ew, consisting of twenty persons, including four passengers, succeeded in saving theinselves in the ship's boa . t, and securing some provitions from the Delphine to sub sisenpon in that desert island ; they saved also some parts of the hull and sails to make a shed to shelter them. On the 10th of October the Captain, his mate, and five sailors arrived at San Carlos in a boat belonging to an Ame rican, which had happily arrived at the same island on the 17th of September. Captain Coisy left San Carlos again on the 31st of October with a vessel large enough to contain twenty persons, to go and fetch his unfortunate companions. He took provisions for two months, hoping that they may have been able to prolong their exis'ence in the melancholy abode by gathering shell-fish and by hunting. The brother of M. Zea Bermudez passed through Mar seilles on the 11th instant c.n his way to Paris. He is Cham berlain to Queen Christina, and is said to be the bearer of despatches from the Palace.—Le Commerce.

Later on in the day, the empty bag is brought beck by the dog, to meet the Farms mail to Derby; but, in consequence of the guard not getting off his seat, it is necessary to send a Person with the beg, who can throw it upon the mail while it is go i ng .

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT THE NINE ELMS STATION, VAUXHALL. (FCRTIIER FARTICULARS.) The account of the loss sustained by the Company, it apjeirs, has ben greatly exaggerated, According to a rough estimate made 3esterday n.iag, it does not ex ceed 12,0001., of which nearly 8,0001. is insured. The workshops of the engineers and engine-men have been completely pt:ed, every particle of timber beirg reduced to ashes, and nearly the whole of the caluah!e machinery used in the repair of the engines rendered useleva. hive gt t abroad that nine engines have been de stroyed, hut such is not the fact ; the whole number a'. the station, excepting, two without wheels, having been rr move4 at tJle commencement of the Cre, and as the build. ing in which they arty usually deposited has escaped the flames, they are replaced in the same manner as bcfcrc the fire, and remain uninjured. The preservation cf this part cf the building, as it is only separated from those consumed by a party wall, is quite miraculous. Indeed, the preservation of the carriage dc partrnent at the other end, which is only distant about 15 fee', and of the brewery on the Battersea sL'e, is equally astonishing. Had there been tl_e slightest wind, they could not possibly have escarel destruction, and, in all probability, the whole statisn would have been reduced to ashes. The loss, unfortunately, is not confined to the Railway and In7ura%ce Companies, but the poor workmen will also Lel it severely, Upwards of 160 men, chi:fly em ployed by t';e Company in the engineering department, will be thrown out of employment for a time.

THE SLEEPING BISHOP. NARROW ESCAPE OF THE BISHOP OP EXETER.--,, ire are happy to state that the above Right Reverend Pre late has received no injury from the accident whi c h b e t e l him when attending divine service in a fashionable chapel, in the keighbourhood of Regent-street, on Sunday last. The Right Reverend Prelate, exhausted with his devo tions, had fallen asleep during the sermon, and in this state of oblivi on l ean t against the door of his pew, which gave way, when his Lordship narrowly escaped being thrown head foremost into the aisle. Luckily, however, he received so little injury as to be able to attend on Monday in his place in the House of Lords; but we would suggest to the proprietors of this chapel that they should provide more lively preachers, or stronger fastenings to their pew-doors, when the Bishop of Exeter honours their chapel by reposing in it during divine service."—Morning .

BUDE LIGHT. TO THE EDI7'OR OF THE SUN. perceived in cue cf your Papers of l rat eeek an article, on the authority of an anonymous corr 'spondent, ridiculing the idea of any saving to the public by the Bode Light, and denying that the House of Gammons is now lighted wlth it at 12.. per night, I think it an act of justice towards yourself, as well as to your readers, to state, that having been professiocally engaged there, I have had an opportunity of ascertaining that the sum in question is that row p4id for this light in that portion of the House alluded to by your corms pondeet. As regards the previous expense of lighting, to which he also retcr=, I have no other source of information except that which I find in u lettc,r from Sir Frederick 'French to Lord Duneannon, (laud the 3d of March, 1838, nod printed by order of the House, which I have: just cbtained from the Parliarnettory Paper-olliee, from which I send you the foliowing extract : Sir Free.eriel.., in preying the great economy of wax canelcs, ccmpared with the attempts previously matte to light the Douse with: common coal gas, says—" If the lu•tres were ceee fixed, the total cost of lighting them would be but 61. 10s. for each night of cloven while the expense of gas for the same numberof 161. c al doc document d s ifT er o i r , c e n s ee to of p l r o o l , . o p t c h r e ni g g r h e t a . : hourshou lt r . s, thweo ou ffil d be economy of wax over another mode of lighting, it must a lso prove its great expense compared ter the Budo Light. Your correspondent likewise states that five or six rneu arc new employed in attending to tais light, at an carcase of 20s or 30s. per night, which is also an error, as I have ascertained that there is only one man employed in the body of the House, and a boy attend ing to the lights in the lobbies, libtarl, and other apart ments, as it is not likely that a greater number of per sons would be required to attend to the four lights in the body of the House than had 1 - e-!en previously re quired to light and exfnguish the 0 40 candles contained in Sir Frederick Trench's lustres.
