SUGGESTING THAT THE ER RORS OF THE CHURCH OF ROME" ARE NOT THE ONLY " ERRORS" WHICH RE QUIRE " A PUBLIC RECANTATION." BY H. E. HEAD, A.M., RECTOR OF FENITON, DEVON. " Thou hypocrite, first cast cut the beam out of thine own eye ; and then thou shalt see clearly" Matt. vii. 5. Rectory, Fenitoa, 19th April, 1 841. My Lord ,—The very singular scene which took place the other day in the Chapel Royal at Whitehall,—is what procures ine the honour of addressin g your Lordship. Some think i t " interesting." Others may think it ominous—with equal or with more propriety. All must agree that it is extraordinary. For my part, I have sear c h e d the whole Pcaver BrAlk without being able to find any such form as the follostirg " Then the Bishop taking each of the penitents (three Roman Catholic Clergymen) by the right hand, said to him,— " I Charles James Bishop of London do upon this thy solemn profession and ear Lest request, receive thee into the ho!y com munion of the Cliur , h of England, in the came t the Father and ot the Son, and of the Holy Gh o st." - , This extraordinary ceremony may de; ive additional light— or darkness—from the following extracts from the British Critic— " We observe then that the essence of the doctrine concern ing the ' one only Catholic and Apostolic Chun h ' lit s in this ; —that it is the representative of our absent Lord, rr a some thing divinely interposed between the soul and God, or a visi ble body with invisible privileges. All its sub , :rdinate cha racteristics flow from this descriptor. Does it impose a creed, or impose rites and ceremonies, or change ordinances, or remit and retain sins, or rebuke or punish, or accept off Tings, or send out ministers, or invest its ministers with authority, or accept of reverence, or devotion in their persons ?—all this is because it is Christ's visible presence. It stands for Christ. Can it convey the power of the Spirit? does grace attend its acts ? 'can it touch, or bathe, or seal, or lay on hands ? can it use material things for spiritual purposes? are its temples holy ?—all this comes of its being, so far, what Christ was on earth. Is it a ruler, prophet, priest, intercessor, teacher ? It has titles such as these, in its measure, as being the repre sentative and instrument ot him who is unseen. Does it claim a palace and a throne, an altar and a doctor's chair, the gold, frankincense, and myrrh of the rich and wise, an universal empire and a never-ending succession ?—all this is so, because it is what Christ is. All the offices, names, honours, powers,, which it claims, depend upon the determination of the si m pl e „ question, Has Christ, or has he not, left a representative be.. hind him? Now if he has, then all is easy and intelligible ; this is what Churchmen maintain ; they welcome the news and they recognise in the Church's acts but the fulfilment of the high trust committed to her."—Brtish Critic, Ng, Ivi.„ p. 431. bought in jt on ly to country, ;ny itself, ' d to him , ,bject Wag in ot her!, to *P i l l ling 0 ir crime!. extended LONDON, _MONDAY, APRIL 26, 1841.

Fixttires very moderate.• • and the circumstances under which it was agreed to were de tailed, the convention would be approved of by Government.-, (Hear.) Such, he was proud to say, was the fact ; and he received a highly complimentary despatch from Lord Palmerston and Lord Minto, for the manner in which he had acted.— He had the satisfaction of being sent to Alexandria, to see the treaty carried into effect, and he must say Mehemet Ali ap peared to have acted with the best faith in the matter; it was his duty to say that he believed the Pa•.ha was honest and straightfor ward in his conduct—that from the beginning he acted with the most perfect sincerity. He surrendered the Sultan's ships, he vic tualled the fleet, he paid it off as far as he could, for he had not money enough to dolt entirely ; he ordered his army to evacuate Syr:a, and pat the country in a positian to obey the Sultan. But the Porte was ill-advised in the matter, and he was sorry to say did not meet him with the like good faith. Their corn. mander had secret instructions to examine into the strength of the army of the Pacha, and if it were found weak to attack him, and if strong to let him alone. A brother officer of his (Commodore Napier's) named Stuart, and Colonel Mitchell protested against the act of the Porte, and fortunately it was not carried into effect. Sytia was evacuated, Mehe met Ali retired into his country, and certainly had a right to expect justice at the hands of the Sultan and of the foreign Powers leagued against him —( Cheers). He was sorry that after all, however, the Eastern question was not settled. After Mehemet Ali had behaved in the most honourable manner, terms had been sent him which it was impossible he could accept. One of those terms was that the Porte should have the power of determining which of his sons should succeed him, after his death, to rule the Egyptians, and the next was, to have the power of taking away the officers commanding his troops and ap pointing their own. Mehemet Ali did him (Commodore Napier) the honour of consulting him on this point, and it was certainly a delicate question for him to advise in, but he certainly must say that he could not advise him or any man to accept such terms.—(Loud cheers, and cries of " Certainly not"). In conclnsion, he observed, that the order sent out to him by the British ' Government was to carry on the war with as little loss of blood as possible—( Loud cheers)—and seeing that by means of that convention he should most effectually obey that order, he could not but think that he had acted right. —(Renewed cheering.) The accept. ance of that convention, in the first place, in part might have saved the lives of 10,000 human beings.—(Hear, hear.) He again thanked the company for the honour done him, and re. sumed his seat amidst loud cheers. Apply it No. 8, Albion-place; Kill's Cross. i not b e ,merica as aberration GODALNJING, SURREY.

The Policies are Indefeasible and Indisputable, unless they have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentations. • --Any important mistake, or even an unintentional omission, in communicating information, in answer to the numerous questions put by other Companies, has the effect of annulling the policy, and forfeiting the premiums—thus rendering it in general a matter of uncertainty (until the claim comes to be made) whether the policy be of any value. The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Assurance Company, determined to obviate whas they consider injustice to the assured, satisfy themselves upon the various questions proposed by them before they enter into the contract of assurance, and frame their po licies in such terms as to preclude all future questions as to their validity, and thus render them indefeasible and indisput able nonuments of future debt against the Company. The po licies of this Company may, therefore, be regarded as certain available future funds, and as unimpeachab e and negotiable documents for pecuniary transactions. One-half of the Premiums may remain Unpaid for Seven Years, affording a greater facility for Loan Transactions and Family Provisions than any other plan which has been sug gested—allowing a Policy to be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice—and entitling the Assured at a future period, when loss of health may prevent him from obtaining a New Assurance, to continue a Policy . for double the amount of the sum for which he has paid Premiums. Parties may be assured either upon the participating or non participating plan ' • the former are entitled to the whole of the profits upon that branch of the business, and the latter are as. sured foi the lowest premiums compatible with perfect security.

FEAVEIt'S INFALLIBLE EMBROCA TION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, &c., &c . Public attention is requested to the following Letter addressed by Thomas Schofield, Esq., to the Editor of the " Morning Chronicle" : Sta,—As I am sure you will be happy to promulgate any thing that will benefit your fellow-creatures, I confidently send you the following statement of an extraordinary cure from a violent attack of that dreadful malady the Gout, which I have obtained by mere accident, feeling assured you will give it publicity in your widely-circulated paper. I was attacked with it for the thi'd time on Saturday night, the 31st of May last, and suffered the most dreadful agony till the following Wednesday, when I war recommended to apply to a Mr. Feaver, woollen warehouseman, Friday -street, Ch eapside, for a bottle of Embrocation for the Gout—a remedy discovered by his father, and by which, I was told, he had cured himself. At that moment my sufferings would have induced me to apply anything ; I therefore obtained a bottle of this Embrocal ion, for which I paid 6s. 6d., and applied it immedi a t e l y; an d t o my delight and astonisment, in one hour the intense pain ceased, in two days I could walk, and at the end of one week the gout had entirely left me. I have no doubt but for this remedy I should have had at least six weeks of suffering, as 1 had in former attacks. I am induced to take this step solely for the benefit of the thousands who are victims to this distressing disease (and for w hi c h, until now, it has been said there was no cure) that they may know where to obtain the same relief. Of Mr. Feaver, the proprietor, I know nothing, having seen h'm but once, when I called to thank him for the benefit he had been tl e means of conferring on me ; and finding he had never made this invaluable discovery publicly known, I rssolved at once to make known my cure to you, and I trust through you to my fellow-sufferers. It is much to be regretted that Mr. Feaver does not imme diately publish it. It cannot fail to prove beneficial in a large degree to himself, while at the same time it would be con ferring a great blessing on thousands of our suffering brethren. However, I feel myself bound to give publicity to my own case in every possible way ; and I consider, by inserting this in your columns, you will he doing a much greater good than usually results from whole pages of matter contained in some of our daily journals.

The times of which I speak were has intellectual and sentimental than the present. We bad few parsons and no bishops, and the British flag flying more frequently than the performance of Divine service, denoted its being Sunday. Yet • even in those days there was a certain reverence, or deference attached to the day, and it was never wantonly marked by any such revolting exhibition as that with which the community have been recently in sulted. • In India the natives all differed from us in religion, mani.ers, and customs, and the slightest interference with any of tle c was punished with the utmost severity, while any premeditated insult to their religious observances incurred the penalty of removal from the service. Lord Cardigan appears t,) have placed himself in the last- ncntioned predicament, and I presume that the British public is equally entitled with that of India to have its religious feelings and observances respected.

COLLISION AND LOSS OF LIFE OFF SCAR- Bonovon.—On Friday afternoon, the following was received in the City from Scarborough, relating to a fatal and most disastrous collision between two vessels; which took place in the North Sea, near that seaport, on the morning of Mon day last. From the account received, it appears that the vessels in question were the bri; Ann Jane, belonging to the port of London, and the French sloop (a remarkablyfine sailing craft) the Jeune Flavie, of Dunkirk. The latter was maimed with six crew—the master, mate, three seamen, and a cabin-boy. Her cargo consisted of coals, and she was on the passage from Sunderland, which place she left early on Sunday, for Dunkirk. At about a quarter before two o'clock on Monday morning, when within three miles of Flambo rough Head (a long mass of projecting chalk cliffs to the south of Sea. borough harbo ur ), th e d re w observed a brig, which proved to be ihe Ann J ane , on h er vo y age from London to Noah Shields, bearing down upon them. They shouted to the brig to alter her course, but the wind and the roar of the sea drowned their cries. The Jeune Flavie was im mediately put about for the westward, in the hope that the brig would go astern of her, and thus prevent a collision, but, unfortunately, it was too late —the brig was close upon them, and in the next moment both vessels came in contact with terrible violence. The excitement and confusion that ensued on both vessels cannot be described. In less than two minutes 'after .the sloop Jeune Flavie went down head foremost, and e those on board of the brig exp ec t e d every minute that their vessel would go down also. The master of the sloop and three seamen saved themselves by cli ng i ng h o ld o f the shiv ere d rig ging of the brig, but the remainder disappeared with the vessel and perished. The bowsprit of the Ann Jane was carried away by the collision, and her stem was completely driven in ; in fact, to such a magnitude that the water flowed into the vessel, and it was but with the greatest exertion that she was prevented from sinkin g . Tho<e on board assert that the sloop was not perceived until s h e was completely under the ship's boes, and it was then impossible to have avoided the collision. The sloop and cargo are valued at 1,5001. ELEMENTS OF EUCLID ; a new edition bY William Rutherford, F. R. A. S., one of the Masters of the Military Academy at Woolwich.—.« Men who have been genuine benefactors of their kind become more and more honoured and i evereneed.aceording as their memory grows older. Every season presents us with " Shakespeare" in a new costume, and notwithstanding the supeii,r claims of the dramatist, in all points of fancy, wit, and humour, the author of plane and solid geometry is one of his most pow. erful rivals for public favour. Some thousands of years may be counted from the period when Eue id flourished, yet are his inestimable works studied as diligently, and revised, and re-edited, and corrected, and republished, with as much enthusiasm, as if they were but recently imported into Eng land. Amongst the many editions that have been produced in the English language, that of Simson, has acquired the most extensive circulation, and taken the deepest r oo t i n our mathematical schools. At this fact we have often expressed surprise, because his labours were certainly much exposed to criticism , f rom the tediousness of his v very although emhfeeuoncgyths . a y teachers Mr.rs Ruther- however, ford has at length supplied a remedy for the disease, and language, and even the want of any vis consequentits in were s h e i vs awareewr several work and of Las his so complainedld demonstrations. extensively, ofhese For by a very laborious, and very carefulsrevision of Simson's prolix language and incautious mode of demonstration, has left little more to be desired in an edition of Euclid in. tended for schools. He has also very properly included the books on solid geometry, and added an admirable se lection of deducibles, or questions for exercise, most va luable in practising the pupil in the knowledge of the pro positions which he has previously learned, We do not hesitate to say, that we are unacquainted with any edition of Simson's 'Euclid more carefully revised, more correctly printed, more convenient for academic objects, and offered to the public at a cost so moderate. . We approve of that taste, judgment, and courage which have secured the edi tor from the quackery of presenting us with either symboli cal or hieroglyphical Euclid's, inventions and gibberish, calculated to disgust the tyro with one of the noblest exer cises in which the mind can be engaged, .and to turn it from the pursuit for ever."--East India Telegraph , — London : Printed for Thomas Tegg, Cheapside.

It had been announced that Commodore Napier would leave Liverpool by the two o'clock ti ain on Wednesday, and might be expected to, arrive here about half-past three. A number of our townsmen who took an interest in the matter accordingly began to assemble at the Liverpool road station soon after three o'clock, and about twenty minutes afterwards the mayor arrived there in his carriage, accompanied by a second carriage, in which was Mr. nestle, of the Branch Bank of England, Colonel Wemyss, and sir Charles Shaw. Sir Thomas Potter, Knight, followed in a carriage, act ompanied by David Ains worth, the boroughreeve, and C. J. S. Walker, Esq. Another carriage contained Alderman Murray, and his father, George Murray, Esq. The train arrived almost exactly at the time expected, and a considerable number of ladies and gentlemen having assembled at the station by that time, the event was communicated to the crowd assembled in Liverpool-road, and who had not been allovied to enter the station, by three hearty cheers. The Commodore was assisted from the train by the Mayor, who immediately escorted him to his own carriage. He was accompanied from Liverpool by ,Sir Thomas Ussher, to whom a seat was given in Sir Thomas Potter's carriage, and by Captain Bradley and Lieutenant Johnstone, who were ac commodated with seats in the other carriages, and in this manner the company left the station on their way to the Tewn-hall. The carriages arrived at the town-hall about a quarter before four o'clock, where a large concourse of people, amounting to some thousands, had assembled. On the Commodore alighting three hearty rounds of cheers were given. The gallant officer was immediately conducted, f o llow e d b y hi s suite, to the ho roughreeve's room, where he was introduced to the town council and others who had been admitted to the room. Hav ing bowed politely to the company Sir Charles took his seat on the right hand of the Mayor, William Neild, Esq., amidst the cheers of the company. The Mavois then addressed him as follows :—Sir Charles, on behalf of the Town Council I have the honour of presenting to you an address agreed to by them yesterday ; and I perhaps cannot do justice to them better than to allow them to speak in their own language. I will therefore do myself the honour of reading the address that was voted to you yesterday. The MA volt then read the address, which was followed by loud cheers. Commodore NAPIER immediately rose, and was greeted with renewed cheering-111r. Mayor and Gentlemen, he said, I beg to return you my very sincere thanks for the honour you have done me on my arrival in Manchester.—(Applause.) I can assure you, if I have been able to perform any services for this country, I have been very well rewarded in the way I have been treated, not only in Liverpool, but in Manchester. I be lieve, Gentlemen, it is hardly necessa r y'f or me ) o say that if it had not been for our rapid successes in Syria, a war with France was inevitable.—(Applause.) I believe the success we met with there, both by sea and land, was the means of ousting the French ministry, and bringing in Marshal Soult—your old acquaintance—( cheers)—who was also received in the most kind manner when at Manchester, as well as when he was at Birmingham: and I feel perfectly certain that we owe a great deal to the manner in which Marshal Soult was re ceived in the different towns through which he passed for the peace we at present enj. , y. —( Applause.) There is only ne thing which I regret in the whole business that has gone on in Syria, and that was the manner in which Mehemet Ali was treated after he had signed the treaty. I happened to be in Egypt at the time, and I think he acted in the most straightforward manner. He sent in his submission to the Sultan. He gave up his fleet. He evacuated Syria. He provisioned the fleet, and paid the fleet. But lam sorry to say, there was no good faith on the part of the Porte, for orders were given to attack Mehemet Ali if they found him weak, and if strong to let him alone.—( Cheers. ) And then the Porte has proposed terms which it is perfectly impossible for him to accept.—(Hear, hear.) Therefore the eastern question is still open, and unless a change has taken place in Turkey, when the new Ministry came in, God knows to what it will lead.—( Applause. ) Gentlemen, I again thank you for the honour you have done me. lam quite unprepared, as you may suppose, coming here in the way I have done, to make a long speech. —( Applause). I beg, Mr. Mayor, to return you my best thanks for the honour you have done me.—(Cheers). The Commodore then resumed his seat, and another round of cheering was given. The MAYOR informed the company that Sir Charles was about to retire to the York Hotel, from whence he would ad dress the persons assembled outside. The company then quitted the room. Sir Charles took the arm of the Mayor and walked to the York Hotel, where a num ber of officers belonging to the regiments stationed in and near Manchester were introduced to him by Colonel Wemyss. There being a great number of persons in waiting before the hotel, the gallant officer, before taking any refreshment, ad vanced to the window, where he was received with a most enthusiastic burst of cheering, and briefly addressed the mul titudes, and thanked them for their kindness. THE DINNER. The dinner took place in the central compartment of thelarge room of the Town-hall, which had been handsomely fitted up for the occasion. The partition at the west-end of the room was sur mounted by the model of a sloop in the centre, with an anchor and cable suspended below, and on either side the words " St. Jean d'Acre," in gold letters; that on the east end by a beautiful model of a man of war, intended to represent " The Powerful," with the words on either side, " Saide" and " Sidon." On the wall immediately behind the chair over the windows fronting to King-street, were the crest and motto of the Commodore, admirably designed and executed in gas, by Messrs. W. Bran ford and Son. The crest consists simply of a hand bearing a crescent, and; the motto, " Ready, aye Ready." The company comprised about 120 gentlemen. W. Neild, Esq., the Mayor, presided, and on his right were Commoder Sir Charles Napier, IC. C. 8., Sir C. Shaw, K. T.S., Sir Thomas Ussher, Major Westenra, sth Dragoons ; Jos. Jackson, Esq., Captain Napier, Major Power, H. Newbery, Esq , and J. M'Laren, Esq. On the left were Colonel Wemyss, Sir Thomas Potter, Knt., Col. Custane, 10th Regiment ; Adam Roxburgh, Esq., one of the constables ; Major Bell, R. A., Captain Bradley, R.N.. James Watts, Esq., N. Slater, Esq., H. Wadkin, Esq., T. Bateman, Esq., and Captain Sleigh. Edward Brooks, Esq., the borough. reeve, occupied the vice-chair. On the guest of the evening entering the room, the fine band of the 10th Infantry, stationed in an ante-room at the west-end,struck up" See the conquering hero comes," the whole of the company rising at the same time and cheering loudly. On the cloth being withdrawn, " Non nobis Domine" was performed by a company of singers engaged for the occasion. After the usual loyal toasts, The CHAIRMAN said the subject of the next toast was, in fact, the subject of the evening.—(Loud cheers, the whole company rising.) It must be gratifying to every gentleman in the room that such a distinguished honour had been con ferred upon Manchester, in havin g it in theirpower to wel come to his native shore, and to welcome to their festive board, the distinguished individual who had now done them the honour of gracing that board on an occasion which had placed his name in indelible characters in the annals of his country. —(Cheers.) After briefly adverting to the operations of the British forces on the coast of Syria, he proposed the health of theirillustrious guest, Commodore Sir Charles Napier.— (Loud cheers. ) Commodore Sir CHARLES NAPIER then rose amidst very loud cheering, and said—When he had the honour of visiting Manchester some three or four years ago, with that brave and distinguished warrior, Marshal S'oult—( Loud cheers)—whom they, as well as the people of Liverpool and Birmingham, received, though once their enemy, with the utmost kind ness and distinction, he little thought that in the course of a few years afterwards he himeelf should be here again, after fighting his country's battles, to be received in the same kind and handsome manner, He begged most heartily to thank them for the kindness and honour they had, he must say, for any services he had rendered his country, almost undeservedly—(No, no)—paid him. He had been placed, when in Egypt, in a very peculiar position. He WU in the Mediterranean when the war begun : the general officer who came out to take Command of the fleet arrived there in extremely bad health, and the consequence was that the com mand of the operations, both of the army and navy, devolved upon himself.—(Applause,) At that time we were threatened with a war with France ; in fact, they hardly knew that at any moment the French might pot appear off Alexandria accom panied by an Egyptianileet of twenty sail of the line. Under these circumstances, when they arrived on the coast of Syria, there was very little - time to lose, for though, when they landed at D'Jouni, they were but ill-prepared in numbers to oppose the enemy, who were posted on almost all sides —east, west, and south—still it was necessary that something sho u ld b e done. The Admiral left him to 'follow out his own plan of operations, and in that plan he followed the example of an ila lustrious warrior in the Peninsular war, he meant the Duke of Wellington—(Tremendous cheering)—under whom he ( Com modore Sir Charles Napier) had the honour to serve in that war.__( Great cheering.) The Noble Duke, as they knew, when he landed in Portugal, was opposed by very superior forces ; but he fortified himself on the heights of Torres Vedras, and it was from behind the lines of that formidable fortifleation he went forth to meet the enemy.—( Applause.) In like manner he (Sir Charles Napier), though in a more humble way, fortified himself at D'Jou n i.—( Appl ause . ) They' were there in a country with which they were perfectly utia,u (painted, full of dangerous and unknown passes, and the first part Of their time was necessarily taken up to acquainting them selves, as far as possible, with these particulars. The men op posed to them at this time, 'under Solyman Pacha, could not have been less than frDm 50,000 to 60,000 in number, but as he did not seem inclined to make an attack on there, they lAes, gam to et impatient, and they detemined, as he weuld not come to them, they would go to him. —(Laughter and cheers.) Their first efforts were necessarily limited by the small force at command, consisting of only about 400 }ponies, and about as many Turks; but, nevertheless they• were successful, for the sight of the rod coats was nearly enough of itself to alarm them, Hear, hear.) It was something new for the Turks to fight in a regular army, and on the first occasion of being engaged but little dependence could be placed upon them ; but the second time they were brought into action on the heights of Syria, he must do them the justice to say he never saw men behave better. The Commodore proceeded to describe the measures taken for the capture of Deyrout, with the brilliant affair en the heights of Ornschoyouen, where he found himself suddenly sipposed to the enemy in an a 'prepay unassailable position, the movement by which he was enabled to attack him in front and rear at the same mo ment, and in the course of half art hour entirely rout his f orces, a measure which led to the entire evacuation of the whole of Lebanon, amidst loud cheers. He next described the attack supposed impregnabl e for hours, w ith h ardly on Acre, by which that till ththeannsut ice treat, was subjugated in less any loss, He now canto (he said) to the subj ec t o f hi s nego tiations, which they, the, men of Manchester, had thought perJiro to do him the honour of complimentin g hi m upon,— ( pp ) He was sent off to Alexandria With six sail Alause. of the line. It was then the end of th e season ; winter was coming op — they had a very small force—there were about 10,000 Turkish men for the defence Of the whole of Sy ria, with Jerusalem, Joppa, anti the important fortress of Acre, M e h eme t Ali mustered between 50,000 and 60,000 troops. Delays were always d angerous —(Laughter)—and so he took en himself what was truly a great responsibility, for he was des titute of instructions or advice from the government at home, or from his superior officer, and proposed to Mehemet Ali ' e " D '''"" (C h e orl a t ) After three or four days' discussion —not like the usual discussions in such cases—(Laughter)—terms were settled, and i n f our d ays peace was m ade and an agree ment signed.—( Ch eers . ) He was quite aware that it was dangerous ground he had taken ; it was poaching up on t h e grounds, in fact, o f th e diplomatist—(Lallglit.?r)-1311t, never theless, he attempted it, and the attentnt succeeded. When his despatches arrived at Constantinople, c ommun i cat i ng these fa c t s , th e f our am b ass adors became alarmed ; they began to think their trade was at an end I they protested against the terms of the convention he had obtained ; it was pro tested against by the English minister, and upset by the autho rities in Syria—denounced as hasty and unauthorised by the commander-in-chief, and abandoned without reflection. These were fearful odds against him truly; but still he felt confident that he (Commodore Napier) had taken a clear view of the subject, and he felt that, when the news arrived in England, A charge has been brought against Mr. Walter for prose cuting some men on the Times a few years ago for combina tion, and one man, named Malcolm Craig, he allowed to die in prison, rather than let him out on the score of ill-health. rh's the Tories attempted to refute, by stating that Mr. Walter behaved with the greatest kindness towards the men, and letters were produced from the last remaining survivor of those who were imprisoned, and from others of Mr. Walter's workmen, who gave him the highest character. At seven o'clock this evening, as the post closed, Mr. Lar pent addressed the electors from the windows of the Exchange Rooms, and created a great sensation. The contest, it is hought, will be one of the severest on record. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sza,—A paragraph, extracted from your invaluable paper of Wednesday, appears in the Nottingham Review of this day, containing the following statement, that "some of the leaders of the violent section o f the Chartists are Irishmen—will they forget the language and conduct of the Times, and support Mr. Walter, merely to spite the Whigs ?" Now, Sir, injustice to my fellow-countrymen resident in Nottingham, and lest it might be supposed they are insensible to the injuries that may be inflicted on their native land by the return of Mr. Walter, I am proud to state, that every man possessing the franchise (with one mongrel exception) will give their decided support to Mr. Lar pent. Nor do any of them forget the epithets that have been applied by the Times to their respected pastors, or the ground less calumnies and unmeasured abuse, that emanates daily, through the medium of that " base weathercock," against their country and religion. I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, JAMES CALLAHAN, Nottingham, April 23, Ib4l. 26, Carlton-street. [We thought the Irish had too much spirit to kiss the foot that trampled upon them.] BRIGHTON, APRIL 23. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,--With respect to the rates of increase of letters in your Paper yesterday, it seems to me that you would do much service by showing your r ea d ers w h a t are the increased ev4se duties on paper consequent on the great increase of letter, and also by endeavouring to ascertain what the average of revenue may be from the money•order system. It would be highly important before the budget comes out, when a reduction of duties may reasonably be anticipated, to lead the public mind to understand what is the operation of reduced charges. confidently anticipate that in a little time, and with increased facilities for the public, there will be no loss even in postage revenue. This is well worth putting before the public. YOUR CONSTANT READER, AND A STEADY FRIEND TO PENNY POSTAGE. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DURHAM RACES-a-Tx u a snAT.

STRANGE SUICIDES.--During the past week an unprecedented number of suicides have come under the cognizance of Mr. Wakley, the Coroner for the western divi sion of Middlesex; it is stated as seven within two days. Some of these eases were of a most extraordinary character. One was on the body of a respectable tradesman, who hung himself to the r a il o f his bedstead, because his wife kept him knocking at the street-door too lung before she let him in, at a late hour in the evening. Another was on the body of a drover, who cut his throat in consequence of some of his companions re fusing to treat him to half a pint of beer. Another was on the body of:a lady, who strangled herself with her nightcap strings so tightly that the blood gushed trom her mouth and nostrils ; she was of a most amiable disposition, but had been induced to commit the crime of self-destruction in consequence, it is sup posed, of a delusion that she had an inclination to murder her husband and child. The fourth was on the body of a man, who hung himself to a tree in Hornsey-wood, because he had failed in obtaining the situation of gamekeeper to a gentleman in the country The fifth was on a lady, who ripped her throat completely up with a pair of scissors; her reason for doing so was not assigned, but it is singular to relate, that after she had committed the act a woman was called in, to whom she gave a loin of lamb that was lying on the table before her , inquiring of the femal e if her husband would not like it for dinner; she exPlred in two minutes after. Another was on the body of a gentleman, who was alarmed by hearing the curtains of his bed rattle, and, under a delusion that some one was going to murder him, jumped out-of bed, ran to the window on the se cond floor, and leaped into the area. Many other cases quite as singular have since been held by the same Coroner. DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE ON BLAcKFatAasißition E. —On Friday night,between seven and eight a middle-aged f,male was ooserved by police-constable 371 to mount the parapet of the north-east side of Black fr:ars-bridge, and before he could reach her, she pr ec i p i tate d herself from it into the Thames. Some men who were on the pier instantly put off to her rescue, and succeeded in gaining her apparently lifeless body, and oonveyed it to t h e G laz i ers Aries (receiving-house), Water-lane, where she was promptly attended by Mr, Hutchinson, surgeon of Farringdon-street. In the course of an hour she was so far recovered as to he be enabled to state that her name was Ann Baines, and that she resided at Cow-cross, Smithfield, but had no relatives or friends in London. " All the great and broad principles on which she may be considered Babylon, may be retorted on us. Does the essence of Antichrist lie in interposing m-dia between the soul and its God? We interpose baptism. In imposing a creed? We have articles for the clergy and creeds for ad men. In paying rever ence to things of time and place ? We honour the coosecrated elements, take off our hats in churches, and oliaerve days and seasons. In forms and ceremonies? We have a. service book, We have bishops, priests, and deacons, In claiming an ins perium in imperio? Stith was the Convecation—such elec tive chapters. In the high state of prelacy ? Our bishops have palaces, and sit amongst princes. In supporting religion by temporal sanctions? We are established. In the mixture of good and bad? We are national. In the discipline of the body? We fast. England does not differ, then, from Rome in principles, but in question of fact, of degree , of practice ; and whereas Antichrist differs f rom ( h r i st, as darkness from light, if one of the two churches is Antichrist, the other muse . be also."—British Critic, No. lvi., p. 429. " But further, it is a very impressive and touching fact, that he hintself has told us that his Church shoul I have to bear the same reproach with him, If they have called the master or the house Beelzebub, how much snore shall they call them of his household?" " Antichrist, then, 'is almost foretold to ee the title which its representatives and servants should bear. The imputatiota of it may be almost called one of the notes of the Church. We say deliberately Antichrist,' Babylon,' Mother of Harlots,' Beast'—these titles given to the Church by the world are as much a note of her being Christ's Church as her real inward sanctity is. Rome must not monopolise these titles ; liome has them not alone ; we share them with Rome;, it is our privilege to share them i Anglo-Catholics inherit them from the Roman family, from their common Lord and Saviour. Rome must not appropriate them. The early Church had them. We take it as a clear mark that- we are, the Chursh, and Rome the Church, and both the swam Church, because in these titles we are joint heirs of the Church of St. Cornelius and St. Augustin. Heretics have generally taken hi g h groun d, considered therwelies sai n t s , called the Church by foul an d f r i g h t f ul names; it is their very wont to speak, not agai ns t t h e S on of Alan, fo r h e i s away, but against those who represent him during his axse noe ."_ British Critic, No. lvi., p. 418. The British Critic claims for your Lordship, and for suc h as your Lordship, a threefold privilege—first, of sitting among the princes of this world —secondly, of interposing. .yourselves and your doctrines between the souls of men and the divine Saviour—thirdly, of bearing reproach for the sake of Christ_ so that the deep indignation esspressed against your Lordships by men who see that you ',refer what your apologist calls " gold and frankincense," to scriptural truth—is to be esteemed a badge of honour a.uti a mark of divine favour. 'To these three privileges, your Lordship seems inclined to add a fourth—that of favouring the Church of England with a form of your own —your own composing or adopting—no matter which. The Tract writers who so mee4ly lay down or take up their pens at the veto or command of a Bishop,—those Clergymen also w its according to your Lordship's testimony are to he brought to subscribe and believe a' most anything at the requi sition of an Archdeacon mid a powerful p asty,—these and a ll such tractable c h aracters may devoutly believe that even self contradiction in your Lordship must be right. But what do. the writers in tins Record say to these things ? Truly they scorn to be of tne same opinion. They make a great outcry apiuit " Puseyism." They write tedious essays to prove thM when Clergymen assert " This child is regenerate," those Clergymen do not mean what they say. They combat the Oxford Tract Writers with every Weapon— except the Bible. They make long quotations Irons Cranmer, Ridley, Latimer, Hooper, Phdput, Bradford, and Rogers, from v hose testimony they derive boldness to assert the, ideanity of the Pope with the Antichrist of the Scriptures. hey denounce, in their magnanimous confessions, the Church of Rome as a painted Jezebel, and a Church foredoomed to de struction. But as for those heresies which seek to dart their poison into the very roots of their own establishment—they; leave them as they find them. And the recent scene in White hall chapel, which, under a thin disguise, may serve to pave the way for ninny a covert act of coalition with the Church of Rome itself-Lseems, in their estimation and language, "a, highly interesting service." Millstones, my dear fellow-subjects, cannot be broken by a feather. Crocodiles cannot be killed by a rotten stick. A blazing fire cannot be quenched by a handful of straw. it be numbing frost cannot be counteracted by a farthing tandle. And the cool, conceited, papalizing overtures of dr.: British Critic and his Right Rev. supporters, cannot be checked by arguments based upon the crude conjectures of Martyrs and homilists concerning prophecies which they never understood. Your Lordship's apologist, the British Critic, has sufficiently evinced that the Bishop of Rome is not a greater hypocrite than the Bishop of London ; and that consequently, those Roman Catholic Clergymen, when they renounced with no small pomp and parade, the jurisdiction of the Pope in order to acknowledge that of your lordship—quarrelled with cue im pintos, in order to shake hands with another. Your lordship's friend the critic has proved thus mu c h. The c r iti c is also quite right in treating the notion that " Antichrist" means the Prelate of Rome as a mere protestant blunder. He has, how ever, omitted to inform the public what Scripture really does reveal concerning Antichrist, which is this— If there be truth hi the Jewish Prophets, Antichrist will prove to be a man, a king, another Pharoah, more stout, fierce,, and powerful than his predecessori or prototypes (as being more under the immediate inspiration of small) who shall ap pear on the earth at no very distant time, arid signalize himself by influencing the nations of the earth to oppose the holy will of the Almighty. 1 John, 2, 18. Js. 11, 4. 2'l Ness, 2, IL, Dan. 8,23. Dan. 7, 11. Rev. xiii. 2, 18. Possibly this individual, while yet unknown, and an infant, may be brought to the font of the Church of England. Shall we the Clergy do well in thanking the Almighty that. it bath pleased him to regenerate this infant with his holy Spirit? Will he also be bound to believe and to do all those things which his godfathers and his godmothers may have undertaken fur him ? Wilt thou play with him as with a bird ? What I mean to say is this. The predictions concerning Antichrist do not indeed confer upon us the privilege of curs ing the church of Rome, Nevertheless they warn us not to be reckless in aseribing "regeneration" to we know not whom. But to return to your Lordship's form of prayer. It is ob jectionable, my Lord, in every point of view. Sad solemn grasulations accompanied by an invocatio n o f the Eternal Trinity, addressed to two or three Portuguese gentlemen, merely because they take it into theiraeads to turn from one church to another,—is contra r y to tre twentieth chathpter of Exok:us, in which it is w r itt en "T hou shalt not take name of the Lord thy God in vain." But whether, your Lordship' s f orm of prayer be objectionable or nut, your Lordship had no .right whatever to introduce it into the Ohapel R o y a l at Uhitehall. In so doing, you have made an innovation, my Lord, in the Church'of England, which is the less excusab l e, as your Lordship is a decided opponent of those wh o w i sh to reform the rituals and modify the laws of subscription, severest terms which language can afford, and h threatened t with A Minister of a country parish is publicly censured in the in Service. On B e a o t T s i m s a lo s m e e rv u deprivation and excommunication , scriptural and pernicious of Baptismal be pee'. of his own witted to foist upon the nation arubric " hieillyinteresting service," considered in connection This On what principle of jus e t x 4e ire s s li s s i l o l n a s with your lordship's un willin g ness to correct the c hurch rituals a bate the rigour of clerical subscription, signifies that. h make a parade of being a Protestant bishop, th a n, and to you had tat er do your duty as a Protestant bishop in ridding your own church of serious error; that you prefer the penknife of Jehoiaki m to the hammer of Bezekiah,—unholy innovation to moderate reform ; and that your Lordship's orthodoxy is evinced / Dort by hostility to the t..hurch of Rome than by the love of truth, It is true these Popish Priests have renounced some of the grosser superstitions of their own Church. But whatever they have renounced, it is far from clear that th e y h ave renounced the vital h e principles of Popery. In the offici a l report of this. transactionpublic is informed that these R oman Catholic: Priests are " at the same time desirous not t o b e separated t from the Communion of the Catholic Chu rc h of Christ. " The decided ambiguity, my Lord, of this phrase (which forms a position fit for advance or retreat), renders it extremely ob jectionable in an official report of ecclesiastical transactions. It has been used by the worst of men for the worst of purposes. Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester, caused John Roge rs to be burnt alive for the sake of " the Catholic Church of Christ." It has been perverted by good men, who, like Peter, have not. known what counsellor has influenced some of their opinions. Under cover of " the Catholic Church of Christ," Tract-wri ters, Reviewers, Critics, and Clergymen, have taught doc trines which contain the essentials of Popery. The term " the Catholic Church of Christ" conveys to the minds of mul titudes within 'the pale of the Church Establishment such no tions as the following —that Episcopal baptism only is valid— that therefore the baptism of Roman Catholics is infinitely preferable to that of Dissenters—that , therefore, on the present o ccas i on, b apt i sm ma y be dispensed with— and that baptism is a " medium interposed between the soul and God." These concessions ( which are congenial as: well to spi r it ua l p eer s as to penitent priests) are implied i n th e forms of p r ay er which, under the sanction of your Lordsh i p, has been denominated "A public recantation of the errors o f the Church of Rome." These concessions are not, it is true, openly expresse d in that form of prayer, but they are co vert l y insinuated. They are overlaid by an invocation of the eternal name, but they strike at the root of true religi o n. I have the honour to be, my Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant, HENRY ERSKINE HEAD, To the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of London.
