If we may give credit to a letter from Algiers, dated the 15th of May, the ex-Bey Achmed has advanced towards the province of Constantine, and has even beaten out of Biscarrah our Schiek El Arab Ben Gannah ; but this is very improbable. The same letter informs us that Colonel Brice, having returned among the Kybeles of Collo, with too small a force, was obliged to re treat to Pbilipville, after losing in a combat 14 killed, and hav ing 50 wounded. The numbers are probably exaggerated. for it is stated that the retreat was made in good order.— Con stitutionnel. The following letter, published by the Tuolonnais, states a very serious fact :—The unhappy sufferers by the ship wreck are not Frenchmen, but the tempest has thrown them on a coast where France has planted her colours; and on this coast, which is now French, the protection of France ought to follow them. We therefore think that it will suffice to state the facts, in order to obtain their deliverance. In the course of last January an Austrian schooner, Captain Vianello, with a crew of nine men, was shipwrecked about nine leagues from this place, and were made prisoners by the Kabyles, with whom they still remain. General de Rumigny in the absence of the Governor, had sent a considerable sum to Gigelli to have them back, but on the arrival of the Go vernor of Algiers, an order was issued to get the money re turned to Algiers. We thought that General Negries would have come to Gigelli with a column to deliver those poor pri soners, who have so much to suffer; but it appears that they were forgotten.— Commerce.

Church -rate, and the proprietor, Mr. Alexander, being a member of the Society of Friends, refused to pay. A war rant was consequently obtained, and the constable and his as sistant entered the Hall, and for this rate of 4s. 2d., took acs ay no less than sixteen forms, each four feet long, which cannot be replaced for less than six shillings and sixpence a form, the rough stuff to make each being calculated at no less than 35., thus causing a loss to the proprietor of four pounds, nineteen shillings and tenpence upon this distress of four shillings and twopence !

Stock is gradually creeping up after a long inters al of depression ; and it is much to be feared that strenuous efforts are being made to endeavour to induce the idea that it bears a real instead of a lnominal value. It has been frequently sup posed, and the proceedings of former finance ministers of Spain would lead to the conclusion that such supposition is correct, that the dividend lately raid, and such as are to be paid, if the event should ever occur, were to be provided for by the sale of a quantity of over-issued Stock. This view has been corroborated by some late changes made in the Cortes, in which it was openly stated thrt the contractors had Feen put in possession of coupons to the amount of seven millions of reals, which it was conjectured had been, or were about to be converted into the new stock, and these charges remain yet officially uncontradicted. In conse quence of these reports and of some misgivings on the part of the holders, the quotations have been gradually declining, and it is thought that, the matter having now blown over, the time has arrived to create a fresh speculation, the more necessary now inasmuch as a further loan is about to be attempted; much caution on the part of the public is necessary in order to avoid purchasing these worthless documents.

The Nenagh Guardian gives the fol lowing particulars On ;Monday last James Carroll, Esq , Coroner, held an inquisition upon view of the body of Rody Kennedy, ofioughane, who was found murdered in a field con tiguous to his own house, on Sunday, the 22d instant. The cause assigned for this murder is not exactly known, but it has not arisen from the taking of land, which is well known to be the fruitful source from whence have sprung those fearful crimes of which it has been the unpleasant duty of this journal to be the chronicle. The deceased was a man of excellent character, and was much esteemed and respected by, his neighbours—as was evinced by the peasantry assembling from various parts about Cloughjordan, to pay a last sad tribute to his memory. He was a widower, and has left five young and helpless children. The Jury found the following verdict : That the deceased came by his death in consequence of wounds inflicted as above de. scribed, by some person or persons at present unknown.' We understand that seven persons have been arrested as being im plicated in the commission of this murder." Prince Esterhazy's long talked-of farewell visit to this country, takes place at the end of the ensuing month. The Earl of COventry has rallied, but his Lordship still continues in a state of great debility. The intention of 11 - moving the Earl to the family seat, Croome Hall, has been abandoned for the present. BERLIN, MAY 20.—The. King has been pleased to confer the order of the Black Eagle on his Royal Righness the Duke of Sussex. LEIGE, MAY 24 Their Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Saxe Nleiningen, with a numerous suite, arrived last night at the Hotel of the I'avilion Anglais. The English Ambassador at Brussels gave on Tuesday a grand dinner on the occasion of the birth-day of her Majesty the Queen of England. BRUSSELS, MAY 25.—0 n Friday evening the beau tiful steamer, the Bruges, arrived at Ostend, on its return from London, with 15 passengers, 17L, bales of cotton, and 5 bales of manufactures. The Bruges performed the voyage from London in fifteen hours, and we are assu red that for the future it will perform it in twelve hours. The management of the Hambledon hounds is, it is said, to be transferred to Wm. Henry Barkworth, Esq., o f Wiltshire Independent. keronttVbition SUN OFFICE Three o'Clock. We are glad to find that the Licensed Victuallers throughout the country have shown a becoming spirit in opposition to the scheme of Mr. PAKINGTON for ex tending the blessings of the New Police Act to them, and the inhabitants in general. A numerous deputa tion has been commissioned by the body to come to London for the purpose of pointing out to the Govern ment the hardships and loss of property which such an enactment would inflict on a class subjected already to more heavy burdens, and more stringent, or, rather, despotical regulations, than any other portion of the community. An application to Sir J. GRAHAM on the subject we fear would be of little use, for without exercising his own judgment, he follows the advice of the Police Commissioners, who are bent on maintaining; the military character of the new police in London, and would, no doubt, delight to see it established in every part of the kingdom. They should at once address themselves to Sir R. PEEL. Let them state their case fairly, so as to point out the injury they would sustain by the proposed measure, and their remonstrances will receive due attention. lie has no interest in harassing a body of tradesmen whom no Government can afford to treat with contempt ; and it cannot be his policy to imitate the example of the late Government who did themselves immense injury by not checking, but, on the contrary, countenan cing a set of meddling hypocritical legislators, whose only delight seemed to consist in annoying their neigh bours and interfering with the amusements and esta b!iihed habits of the people. Mr. PAKINGTON, who has this project in view, is Chairman of the Worcestershire Quarter Sessions, and not satisfied with the vast power over publicans, given by law to the Justices, is deter mined to have them still more at his mercy. He can have no other object in view. If people get drunk and create a disturbance, the Justices can inflict a fine. If landlords encourage such practices, the Justices can take away their licences. The law as it exists is sufficiently strong, and the result of his scheme would only be to confer on the police more power, to encourage informations, to make the Government hated, and to annoy the public, and more espe cially travellers, by depriving them of the usual means of obtaining shelter and refreshment. It is of no use to say an exception is to be made in their favour, for landlords would have such difficulty in ascertain ing who really were travellers, and would be subject to such annoyance, by informations, that they would be driven to the necessity of shutting up their houses al together during the proscribed hours. We confidently trust, therefore, that the publicans, not only throughout the country, but in the metropolis, will unite, and resist to the last such a wanton interference with their property and their rights as citizens. If they only.act in concert, and resolve to reject all candidates at elections who will not pledge themselves to protect their interest against such meddlers as Mr. PAKINGTON, PLUMPTRE, and Sir ANDREW AGNEW, they may rest assured there will be Ono occasion for a second deputation to London. The Duke of WELLINGTON stated, in the House of Lords last night, that he had never treated the distress of the country with levity. We never heard the illus trious Duke's definition of levity, and therefore do not understand exactly what meaning he attaches to the word. Was it treating the distress of the country with levity to assure the House of Lords that England was the only country in the world in which a poor man could Jive comfortably, provided he were industrious, and that if wretchedness prevailed, the people would find the cause in their own laziness and vice ? Was this the way in which it became a great statesman to speak of the working classes of this country, thousands of whom are perishing, not because they will not work, but because they cannot find employment. There is a painful hardihood about many of the Duke's remarks, whenever hr has occasion to treat of the distresses of the poor. He has nut only no sympathy, but he seems to have an utter contempt for them. This feeling is so strong as to blind him to the observation of the most obvious facts. It is nut the unwillingness of the people to work that causes the distress in Spitaltields, in Paisley, and in Burnley. They are idle and starving, because such statesmen as the Duke of WimtalloToN make laws which, by keeping up the price of food, render our manufacturers unable to compete with foreigners in the great markets of the world. More suffering has been inflicted upon the people of this country by legislation than by all the other causes of human misery put together. The very vices of the people have been trebled by the operation of a vicious and brutalizing system of Government. We do not, however, mean to imply that the Duke of WELLINGTON has a greater contempt for the industrious classes than the majority of the Members of the House of Lords. The great bulk of his auditors think exactly as he does, but not possessing his Grace's frankness, they take care to say nothing about the matter. They parade a little maudlin sympathy now and then to save appearances, but, in reality, they care less for the people than they do about their dogs and horses, The Madrid journals received are of the 18th inst. They state that Barcelona was in a very disturbed con dition. In fact, a rising in that quarter was momenta rily expected to take place. The Carlists are again endeavouring to kindle the flames of a civil war in the north of Spain. The conduct of the Northern Powers in not recognizing the young QUEEN, and so indirectly sanctioning these appeals of public plunderers to arms, is at once disgraceful and inhuman. _ . On the Madrid Bourse, en the 18th, three bargains were coneluded in the Three per Cents., at 21i for cash, and 22* at 60 days, f0r . 3,000,000 reals. The transac tions in the Five per Cents., 46 in number, amounted to 26,000,000 reals, and were done at 26i- for cash, 26i at 60 days, and with premium, 27a at 40 days, and 27 at 33. The French journals are still without any political news of interest. The Committee of the Chamber of Peers on the Railway Bill has voted for the adoption of that measure, as passed by the Chamber of Deputies. It is expected that the Parliamentary session of the French Chambers will close about the middle of July. The French Government has fixed the import duty on linen and linen thread at 12 per cent. The following re marks upon this augmentation of the duty is from the Commerce : We take note of the promise of M. CuninsGridaine to aug ment the duty on English linen threads and linen cloths. We are partisans neither of monopolies nor of prohibitions ; our principle is, liberty of commerce ; but we do not urge it to either despotism or dupery. The English, who ,seek to seize ,on all the markets of the world, are exceedingly anxious for commercial liberty in other nations, but they grant it to no person in return. We know what we have to expect for our wines, our silks, and other manufactured objects. The protective duties in England amount nearly to prohibi tions It is in this state of things that we lay a duty of 10 per cent. on English threads imported into France; to the detri ment of our spinning-manufacturers. We keep up in a cer tain measure a whole branch of British industry, and how does England requite us? In the face of a 10 per cent. duty on English threads in France, they put on 60 per cent. on similar articles of our manufacture. Before 1788, France furnished the English with a great part of their linen cloths, afterwards the English excluded us from their markets, by establishing the protecting duty alluded to; at a still later period spinning machines were invented, and England seized on them first. She formed immense establishments, against which the French manufacturer cannot contend, even if nothing else be considered than the first outlay in forming establishments, which have been lone since incur red b y En g land. It is in this state of things that England maintains a duty of 60 per cent., whilst ours is only Its per cent. Certainly, we shall be exceedingly moderate in establishing on English threads a duty equal to the British tariff, and we trust that, conformably to those ideas, the ordonnance of M. Cunin-Gridaine , ll raise eur duty at least to 30 per cent. on the value. There und fioubtedly, ce our linenn-manuo man of genre who can propose to us to coolly to the wealth and en . sacri . facture, the natural productio n of our soil, croachments of our rivals at the other side of the channel. A magnificent ball was on Tuesday night given by !heir Ex_ cellencies the British Ambassador and Lady Cowley, in honour of the birth-day of her Majesty the Que , en . of England, to which all the lead;ng, English residents of I alas, and the n ‘r to s st. di,tinguislaed tiheigneis were invited—the company- co ile i r i ing Russian, Austrian, Spanish, Italian, and, prestntative of the highest nobility of all the Courts of - in tact, t m e t rope. Marshal Scult, M. Guizot, and the other Ministers, the members of the various cm ps diplomatiques, and most of the gentlemen present; were in their nat:onai uniforms, which gave a brilliant variety to the scene. The dresses of the ladies were of the must rich and elegant description, displaying a gr. at pr..fusion of diamonds and jewellery, among which some of those worn by Spani.h ladies were of surpassing cost and b . rillianey, the cited of which was heightened by thou sands of wax lights, with which the extensive suite of rooms re lighted up. The most striking—almost magical coup (bell, however, was the gallery which runs round the rooms, and which was on this occasion fitted up with commodioui divans for the convenience of the dancers wishing to repose themselves, and filled with plants and flowers. From this gallery the effect produced by the garden, which was seen beautifully illuminated with variegated and Chinese lamps, was perfectly enchantiug. At the further end of the lawn was raised a triumphal arch, hung with an immense variety of coloured lamps, and bearing in the centre a crown and her Nlajesty's initials V.IL, with the Royal arms of Erg hind. The supper, which was alike remarkable for its pro fusion and elegance, was served at two o'clock in the state diaaig-saloon, which was handsomely decorated for the occa spin, and perfumed with orange-trees in full bloom. D anc i ir , , SUMMARY OF NEWSI AND Public Opinion. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN.. The Univers, a French religious paper, gives the following results of the operation hitherto of the right of search :—" The number of negroes liberated from 1828 to 1835 has been 8,312, taken in 29 slavers, and liberated by the mixed Committee sitting at Havannah , 3,193, from 10 slavers, and liberated by the Committee of Rio Janeiro, 27,686, taken in 142 vessels, and set at liberty by the Committee at Sierra Leone, bet ides those who have been liberated by the special tribunals of each contracting nation. For France alone the numbers are 525 at Martinique, 702 at Guadaloupe, 800 at Guayana (Maria), and 465 at Bourbon, making in all 41,683 negroes, whom the right of search, such as it is exercised at present, has set at liberty in the space of eight years. For ail those, whom the senti ment of human dignity has not abandoned, this is undoubtedly something." The grand fete given by Lord Cowley, at the British Em bassy on Tuesday night, to celebrate her Majesty's birthday, passed off most brilliantly, and was pronounced to be one of the most splendid entertainments ever given in the French capital. The Commerce says :—" M. Olozaga will, it is understood, soon return to his post, as Ambassador at Paris. It is pro balile, therefore, that Count Salvandy will not delay returning to Madrid, for he still preserves the title of Extraordinary Ambassador of the King to Spain." The Sentinelle de Toulon of the 22d instant states, that the Veloce steamer, which arrived on the preceding day with 18 sick, had left the squadron of Admiral Hugon at the islands of Hyeres. On the 20th the frigate Medee came in collision with the Ocean man-of-war, carried away her stern boat, and re ceived considerable injury in her rigging. Several persons were wounded on board the Ocean, and amongst others Admiral Hugon, who was struck on the head. A letter from Beyrout, April 28, in the Echo de l' Orient, states that the plague was raging at Der-el-Kamar, and that some eases had occurred at Saint Jean d'Acre, but Beyrout was, up to that period, free from the disease. The same letter informs us that Colonel Rose, the British Consul, had narrowly escaped assassination. Whilst riding on horseback he was at tacked by an Albanian, who snapped a pistol at him, but it for tunately missed fire, and the Colonel rode eff. Our accounts from Athens are of the 10th inst. They state that French influence was all powerful in Greece for the pre sent, and that Russia on the other band was actively labour ing to get up, by working on the religious fanaticism of the people, a powerful opposition to King Otho. PARLIAMENTARY. Lord Hatherton last night drew the attention of Govern ment to Sunday traffic on canals, when Lord Wharncliffe said it was intended to bring in a Bill on the subject, though not this session. Lord Kinnaird moved for a copy of the Queen's letter, and stigmatized the tariff as a precious piece of humbug. After a short debate, in which the impropriety of issuing such a letter except in cases of urgent distress, difficult to be re lieved by other means, was commented on, the letter was ordered. The Copyright Bill went through a Committee. The Lord Chancellor explained its provisions, and supported it. Lord Brougham took a different view, and was not for extending the period. Lords Cottenham and Campbell supported the Bill, as did Lord Lyttelton. There was an understanding that some clauses of the Bill should be considered on the Report. Their Lordships sat till ten o'clock. In the Commons Mr. W. Wynn moved that the Attorney- General be instructed to prosecute those • persons whom he should think had been guilty of bribery at the late election for Ipswich. Sir Thomas Wylde opposed the motion. After some debate it was withdrawn, no person on either side sup porting it. Colonel Rushbrooke afterwards moved that the writ for Ipswich be issued, and Mr. Hume moved that tke debate be adjourned for a month. After a tedious discussion the House divided on Mr. Hume's motion, which was lost by 128 to 107. The question was again put, when Mr. O'Connell moved as an amendment that a Committee be appointed to inquire into the alleged bribery at Ipswich. On a division, this motion was lost by 133 to 119, and the writ for Ipswich was ordered to be issued. The House was occupied with these subjects till a quarter before twelve, when Mr. C. Buller objected, at that hour, to proceed with his motion relative to Bridport and Mr. War.. borton's petition, in which both the Members for Bridport con curred, and the motion was put off till this day. Lord Stanley obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the better Government of Newfoundland. The Witnesses Indemnity Bill was read a second time, and the House adjourned at One o'Clock. runxac OPINXON. The Chronicle thus alludes to the ignorance of some of the members of the Cabinet, as regards the Queen's Letter But if they knew that it had been determined on that a letter was to be written, was it not monstronsly imprudent, to say nothing of the indecency of the thing, to question the existence of the letter, upon the mere chance that it might not have been written ? Why speak of the thing in such a m:nner as to beget a suspicion in the public mind that imposition might have been practised? What man of any sense would allow himself to speak lightly on such a serious subject as the over whelming distress of the people? Many persons doubted the genuineness of the letter when Cabinet Ministers spoke of it in a manner to create an impression that no such letter was in existence. They said, however little the Earl of Ripon may take to heart the distresses of the people, it is impossible, if such a letter had been determined on, but that he must have had some recollection of it, and he would not surely be such a chatterer as to express a doubt whether it had actually been issued, on the mere chance that it might not possibly have been issued. We must say that the whole proceeding evinces much disrespect towards her Majesty, and indifference as regards the distresses of the people." The Herald observes, with reference to the Queen's Letter : —" When starvation stands on the working-man's hearth, when every shilling subscribed must alleviate some pang, Lord Kinnaird, as appears by last night's debate, is desirous of knowing • why the letter should be issued just at. this parti cular time,' and adds that •he does not think it will do any permanent good,' as if—supposing for an instant that his con jecture be right—that were a reason for withholding immediate relief from starving people. Earl Fitzwilliam also doubts the efficacy of the measure proposed, and would legislate for famine by prospective, or, as his Lordship terms it, permanent assistance, when' the call for temporal aid is so imperative ! The Marquis of Lansdowne, on the other hand, believing that the letter i 3 well-timed and the result of mature delibei anon, expresses his approval of the course proposed. Who is there, we ask, unwedded to a system, who will temporise with such a question, and not at once come forward with hand and heart to follow the example already set by the Queen, the Queen Dowager, her Majesty's Ministers, and other noblemen and gentlemen, whose subscriptions are appended to the statement." The following is from the Post :—" We observe in the Whig papers a great deal of very disingenuous trash, with re ference to the observations which we offered on Wednesday morning as to the fair, common-sense state of the bribery question. We then maintained, what all persons conversant with society know to be true, that buying votes at elections is popularly regarded as no moral offence at all, and that men do not stand any worse in society on account of having been popu larly known to have bought votes at elections. Because we have stated this as a fact, our candid critics quote this part of what we have said, and this part alone, adding certain remarks of their own by which their readers are led to understand, that in stating this fact, we regarded it as a very light matter, and one to which no particular notice should be given. But the truth is, that had these critics been honest enough to state the substance of all we said, their readers would have found that we not only strongly condemned that insensibility which we re corded, but proposed that the Legislature should interfere to correct the grievous popular error which exists, and also to prevent the commission at such bribery as far as may be pos sible, and to provide a punishment for it where means of pre vention fail." The Times, alluding to the bribery and corruption practised at elections, says :—" We do not underrate the practical diffi culties of these questions ; we do not overrate the advantages to be derived from any one act of severity or of justice. We know (with Mr. Bernal) that the evil is too deeply seated in the constituencies of our great towns to be expelled by any sudden discipline or any vaunted legislative nostrum ; that among these constituencies bribery and treating, like smug gling or poaching, are not looked upon as crimes, and that it is vain to legislate when you have no public moral sense with you to back and enforce your laws. Yet we cannot but think that what bears the appearance of indifference to this great stain on the character of our voters is an important and absolute evil ; and therefore, without saying what could have been done, we must express our regret that the House of Commons should have sent out to the world what appears very much like a care less refusal to do anything at all." MONEY—TUADE—COMMERCE. _ Not less than 1,100 salmon have been caught in the Tay, near Perth, during the past week. The South-Eastern Railway was opened as far as Tunbridge yesterday, and four trains are to run daily. PUBLIC IMILPILOVEDIENTB. A new bridge was last week thrown over the piece of orna mental water leading from the inner circle in the Regent's park, across to Macclesfield-gate. Two other bridges are also in formation. The contemplated improvements which were to have taken place in Piccadilly have been postponed till the autumn, on ac count of some difficulties that have arisen relative to the parish boundaries. ECCLE SIApTICJIL. The Rev. Mr. Sibthorp, who has recently created so great a sensation by his desertion of the Church of England for that of Rome, was on Saturday last admitted to priest's orders at the Roman Catholic College at Oscott. LAV, AND POLICE. At the Surrey Sessions yesterday Samuel Rosamond was convicted of stealing from his father, a policeman in the M division, two coats, and other wearing apparel. It appeared he had been tried at the Central Criminal Court for embezzling the wages of his fellow-workmen, and sentenced to six months ' imprisonment. The Court sentenced him to be transported for seven years. The case of " Lady Galmoy," who has lately sought an allowance of alimony in the Prerogative Court, at Dublin, was determined on Tuesday last, when the Court ordered her 501. a-year, pending the suit for a divorce with Sir Thomas Staples, LL.D., commonly called Lord Galmoy. In the Common Pleas yesterday, the case of Crawshay v. Thompson came on again for hearing. ' A rule had been obtained for a new trial on the ground of misdirection, or of the verdict being against evidence; but the Court thought the question had been properly left to the Jury, who gave a verdict for the defendant, and accordingly discharged the rule. The action, it will be remembered, was brought for a supposed imi tation, by Alderman Thompson, of the initials "W. C.," stamped on the iron manufactured by the plaintiff. FINE AIa.TS.. A tine statue of King George 111., sculptured by Turnerelli for the late George IV., has been presented by Mr. Henry Pownall, of Spring Grove, to King's College, where it will Le placed in the Museum. The new bust of Alderman Lucas; which is to be executed by Mr. Behnes, the sculptor, will be placed, when finished, in the Royal Naval School, an institution of which the Alderman has long been patron. A valuable bronze cast of the far-famed shield of Achilles, the composition of Flaxman, has been presented by Messrs. Rundell, Bridge, and Co., to each of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. COURT—FASHIONABLE. The Grand Duke Gustave of Mecklemburg-Schwerin, uncle of the Duchess of Orleans, arrived in Paris yesterday. Lord Wharneliffe, Lord President of the Council, arrived in town on Wednesday from Wortley Hall, Yorkshire. The Earl of Cassilis gave a sumptuous dinner at the Cla rendon, on Wednesday, to a party of twelve. The Earl and Countess of Orkney have arrived on a visit to Sir George Warrender, at Cliefden House, and the mansion will be full of company during the Ascot races. The Earl of Seaford, and Lady Jane Grant, are shortly expected at Cliefden. Earl and Countess Ducie and family left the Clarendon yes terday for WoodchesteF Park, Gloucestershire. A grand ball was given at the British Embassy at Paris on Tuesday, in honour of the birth-day of the Queen of England. MISCELLANEOUS. Victor Hugo has presented two highly-wrought holy water founts to the church of St. Paul at Paris, at which one of his daughters lately made her first communion. The King of Prussia has conferred the order of the Black Eagle upon the Duke of Sus'ex. Lady Keane, married in 1814 to Sir Richard Keane, Bart., the brother to Lieut.-General Lord Keane, of Ghuznee, died at Cappoquin House, the family seat, near Waterford, about ten days since. Riley-house, a handsome brick.built seat, in the occupation of a gentleman named Weekes, situated at the village of Hin nock, in Devonshire, was totally destroyed on Monday last by fire. The amount of property destroyed is considerable, and, It is feared, attended with loss of life. LAW IN TELLIGENC E HOUSE OF LORDS.-(THIS DAY.) Lord Brougham, Lord Cottenham, and Lord Campbell, sat in the House of Lords to-day, to hear Sootch appeals. THE EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW UNION CANAL COMPANY V. SIR T. G. CARMICHAEL, BART. The Soucyroit-GENERAL replied to-day in this case, and Their LORDSHIPS passed judgment, reversing the decision of the Court below, with costs. THE MONKLAND AND KIRKINTILLOCH RAILWAY COMPANY V. IiIION. This case came before their Lordships upon appeal from the Court of Session. The only question in the case was, whether the respondents by the Act constituting their railway, had a right to cross the railway belonging to the appellants. The Court of Session decided that, according to the construction of the Act, the respondent had that right, and from that deci,ion the appellants came to the House of Lords by way of appeal. The arguments bad not concluded when our Evening Edition went to press. CHANCERY._(THIS DAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR satin Lincoln's Inn Hall to-day, and took appeals and appeal motions. The cases that came before the Court were of little or no interest except to the parties concerned. VICE-CHANCERY-('IHIS DAY.) Short causes and unop , posed petitions occupied his Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England the whole morning. (Before Vice-Chancellor BaucE.) His HONOUR having gone through the list of causes set down in the paper for hearing, which came before him chiefly on technical points, the Court rose shortly after 11. (Before Viee-Chancellor WIG SLAM.) MASSEY V. MOSS. His Howouß gave judgment in this cause. The sole ques tion which the Court had to decide was one of costs, namely, how the assignees of a bankrupt executor were to get their costs of being brought into Court. His Honour decided that they were only entitled to have them out of their own estate. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) The Court was engaged this morning in hearing arguments on cases in the special paper. All the proceedings were of a purely technical nature. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY,) MAGNAY AND ROGERS V. MONGER. Mr. Watson appeared for the plaintiffs; Mr. Humphrey for the defendant. This was an action brought by the plaintiffs, to recover poundage for the execution of capias ad satisfaciendum, to the amount of '216/. 17s. The defendant pleaded that the capias Has not endorsed to satisfy 2161. 175., and that the writ was not delivered to be executed in due form of law. It appeared that the writ was sent to the sheriffs' office, marked with a non est inventus, and when that is the ease it seems to be the cu s t o m in the sheriffs' office to take no active steps to execute the writ. After the writ, thus endorsed, was sent to the sheriffs, Mr. Brokenshire, the person on whom it was to be executed, came to the sheriffs' office, and delivered himzelf up, on which he was taken into custody, and when the Sheriffs made application to the defendant for the poundage, which has been from the time of Queen Elizabeth Is. for the first ]l, and 6d. lor every other It, the defendant refused to pay it, and the present action was brought in conse quence to recover 71. 18s. poundage. Some evidence having been given upon the practice of the Sheriff's officer, The LEARNED JUDGE said he did not see what question was to be lift to the Jury. Mr. HUMPHREY said that he apprehended it might be left to the Jury, to say whether the writ was delivered to be ex ecuted. . _ His LoansHir said that the plea was that it should be exe cuted in due form of law, and inquired whether there was any precedent on the case? Mr. H UMPIIREY said that he believed the question was never raised before. It was ultimately arranged that a verdict for 71. 18s. should be entered for the plaintiffs, with liberty to enter a verdict for the defendant, if the question of law was decided in his savour. INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY RE GEORGE EEPLOE. The insolvent in this case, who was an omnibus and cab pro prietor, was opposed in person by a creditor named Alder. It appeared that the insolvent had been his tenant, and hav ing gone in arrear of rent, a writ was issued, and, as is fre quently the case, the sum named was larger than that due, although the insolvent was made aware by the opposing credi tor's attorney that this was merely a matter of form. The insolvent pleaded to the action, and consequently much extra expense was imposed on theplaintiff before judgment was taken. The grounds of opposition, therefore, was for a vexatious de fence. _ _ Mr. Commissioner BOWEN said the insolvent bad been seven months in prison ; besides the fact that a larger sum than was actually due being named in the writ, took away the strict legal application of the clause against vexatious defences in this case, and on those grounds the decision of the Court was that he be discharged forthwith. IN RE WILHELM CLAUER ICLATOWSKL. Mr. Nicuom.s said he applied au behalf of Messrs. John Tutein and John Hodges, to have them appointed assignees in this case. It appeared that in the year 183 b the insolvent took the benefit of the Act, and his clients being creditors for a large amount, were appointed assig nees. Nothing was realised from the estate, but it appeared by the schedule filed under :the present petition, that there was surplus property to a large amount arising from good debts due to the estate at present, and his clients were, therefore, anxious to be appointed assignees under the present petition as well as the former one. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS inquired whether Messrs. Tutain and Hodges had become creditors since the former in solvency, and, being answered in the negative, said he could not for a moment entertain such application. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Four dirty young girls, who had the appearance of prosti tutes of the lowest order, were charged with being very riotous, creating a disturbance, and assaulting several persons, at four o'clock this morning, in Broad -street, St. Giles. The policeman, who had the young ladies in charge, nar rated, in a concise manner, the facts of the case, and, by way of a specimen of their peculiar behaviour, he favoured the worthy Magistrate with a few choice and elegantly termed expressions, for which ladies of their class are so justly celebrated, which they made use of this morning in the course of their interesting little squabble. Notwithstanding the delicate and chaste character of the expressions alluded to, we think perhaps it would be almost as well not to give publica tion to them in our columns. During the recital of these ex pressions by the policeman, the pure young creatures expressed the utmost astonishment that such neat little phrases should have fallen from their untainted lips ; nay, they even went so far as to endeavour to cast a slur upon the policeman's testi mony, the repeated ejaculation of sundry little sen tences such as by " Well; 1 never," and turning to each other, making the figure of a party about to set off in a Scotch reel, each ex claimed to the other in a confidential tone, " Did you ever ?" I never did." " Oh, dear, oh, dear," " the talse-sweating man," &c. 'The policeman having concluded his statement, spite of nu merous interruptions, the fair creatures were called upon for their defence. ....... —_____ Each one then in soft and mellifluous tones, which fell upon the ear like the echo of sweet music, wafted through the air on a calm quiet summer eve, commenced her statement :—" Oh, Lor, she war'nt near the place at hall, she was hinnocent o' the charge ; a man and a young gal yvot was wery o b f t e h on at e impressed—tt e i tywaal was the a s nearly - much tosticated was a coming along when they hinsulted her, but has she was as hinnocent as a babby, she were quite uncapable of a doing wot the Vile( man sworn that she were, and everybody as knowed her , would say the same thing on her; the man and the young 0 omen wot was a prostitoote— s h e was a prostitoote—pushed her and it her ; howsomihtdheedtvheeefre,nneescheeeossfnietayvileo; spoke to nobody-7not a bit on it, when the, police mina hup and took em all, which he's a false-swearing man ; she was as hinnocent as the child hurt-born. and there Mr. JARDINE, however, was not to be gammoned by this forabgieWr,es agreeing el nl h d e g a e vtpihenl giventhe same theirsai d m the t e h s e at y al et defence :mand sects n t ts o , eloquent defence ; the policeman was upon his oath, employed the same words. was no reason to doubt his testimony; under these circum stances, therefore, he should commit them each to the House of Correction for fourteen days. The delicate young crea t ures w h om , w e forgot to remark, had neither of them bonnet or shawl, were then removed to mingle with the common herd of prisoners. We do sincerely hope and trust that their morals may nut be tainted by coming in so close contact with the rest of the prisoners during their short visit to the House of Correction. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) John Hood, a middle-aged man of shabby' appearance, was placed at the bar, charged with the following impudent rob bery :—About nine o'clock yesterday morning, a journeyman baker, in the employ of Mr. 'William Butcher of No. 2.5, Brydges- s t reet , C oven t-garden, bread an d biscuit baker, left a bar row o f b rea d on the foot pavement, in Cambridge street, Golden-square, while he went to serve a customer, in an adj o i n i ng street. D ur ing his absence the prisoner wa s seen to go deliberately up to the barrow and take out fourteen half-qu artern loaves, wh i ch b e p l ac ed in a basket that was hang ing in f ront of the barrow, an d, s li n ging it over his shoulder, was maltin g off with it at a quick pace , wh en he was sto pp ed and give n i nto the custo d y of the police. AlActsraATE—Have you anything you wish to say? Pri soner—Nothing ; I certainly took the bread because I was h y. ungr Ild atitsTßATE—But you had no occasion to take so much of it. A Police -constable identified the prisoner as haring been convicted at the Cer.tral Criminal Court for a similar offence. He w• as fully committed.

Yesterday morning, between five and six o'clock, as Thomas Timms, one of the fire-brigadernen belonging to Watling -street Fire-engine station, was proceeding in a boat from Southwark-bridge stairs, he discovered the body of a young lady, e l egant l y att i re d, floating in the River Thames. He, with assi s t ance, got t h e b o d y i n t o the boat, and it wa s cc n veyed on shore, and afterwards to Christchurch IN orkhouse, where it lies to await a Coroner's inquest. There were no papers or other documents found on the deceased's person, so as to lead to a discovery of who she was. The body appeared to have been from five to six days in the water. KC A MBE R.

OPENING OF THE SoUTH EASTERN RAILWAY.— Yesterday morning the South-Eastern Railway was opened as far as 7 . unbridge, and the first train which left that place at a quarter before eight in the morning reached town a few mi nutes before ten. 'I he down trains were dispatched at half past nine. There were, however, but few passengers. There are to be four trains each day (except Sundays), and carriages are procured at Tunbridge to convey parties to Hastings, St. Leonard's, Tunbridge Wells, So. The state of things at Dudley, Stourbridge, and the neighbourhood, is, if possible, becoming more gloomy than ever. The colliers have refused to work at the reduction of wages proposed by their employe' s. The stocks of coal being nearly exhausted, it is believed that in a few de) s, unless the colliers resume their occupation, most of the iron works will of necessity be closed ; and the evil will of course extend spee.eily to other trades and interests. The appearance of the working classes is abject in the extreme, and the pawnbrokers' shops are now closed against them.— Worcester Journal. We are happy to hear that some good orders have been received at Kiddermister, and that a general revival of trade is anticipated to take place immediately.— Worcester Journal. AMERICAN LOANS. The following letter conveys some useful warning against I Anieriean loans reported to be forthcoming upon this market : " Sir,—The American Government having determined OA raising a loan, the greatest part of which they will ende by every plausible representation, to get negotiated in Englan 1, I . cannot avoid expressing a hope that through your valuable and widely circulating paper, a warning voice may be raised, sufficiently strong to prevent innocent Englishmen being duped by the Federal Government, as they have been by the swind ling acts of the repudiating, or non-paying States. " Knowing, by sad experience, the distress occasioned by the faithless conduct of the Mississippi State, I am the more anxious to prevent my countrymen trusting to any professions of the President of the United States, whose authority avails nothing against the wishes of a repudiating population ; and who, if the said repudiating mob wish it, would, in case of non-fulfilment of the loan terms, merely say, on being remonstrated with, that he is sorry for it, but hopes honesty may some time or other prevail.' My owircase is simply this :—Some few years ago I retired from the army, in which I spent thirty years almost constantly in a foreign clime. On arriving in England 1 found the English funds un usually high. Being anxious to invest my hard. earned savings advantageously, though not in a speculating manner, I applied to my friends, who assured me that American State bonds were negotiated by the respectable houses in London, the interest regularly paid, and considered quite as safe as other seem ities. Unfortunately 1 purchased some Mississippi bonds, signed by the Governor of State, and certified to be redeemable 1861, 1866, and 1871. " After receiving my interest, five per cent., with the greatest regularity, through the respectable agents in London, for four years and a half, I was suddenly told that no more payments were to bo made, and from that day to this I can neither get principal nor interest. The very Governor of the state, M'Nutt, who signed the bonds, became their repudi ator ; and thus I have, with numerous others, been duped, cheated, and defrauded by the Legislature and people of the Mississipi State. That the loan will be represented as more advantageous than State bonds, as to security, Congress having issued them, there is no doubt; but when we consider how general the idea of repudiating debts is become in America, and that Congress have neither proclaimed the infamy, or its abhorrence of such fraudulent acts, I cannot avoid again ex pressing a hope that (in however favourable a point of view this loan be presented to the English people by persons who will derive advantage from the commission, &c.) any persons intending to purchase into it, will consider the extreme dis tress many are now suffering from the fraud of the non-pa)ing Stater of America, and that they themselves, on becoming creditors of the United States Government, are actual:) , cre ditors of these non-paying States, who are now causing such distress in great part of England. " Romsey, May 24, 1842. "MILES." LATE FIRE AT HA.MBURGH. HAMBURGH, MAY 20.—The want of dwellings • for the workmen is still very great. The Relief Committee gives notice to-day that it has already received three hundred applicants on this subject. It is especially necessary to erect temporary wooden barracks, such as those already erected in several parts of the city, for which purpose the contributions in money from foreign countries must be first applied ; and then to procure means for those who have been brought under shelter to pursue their several occupations. SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 21.—Part of the Z'russian pioneers returned yesterday to Magdeburg, and will be followed in a few days by a second detachment. The pioneers of the guard will soon return to Berlin, and only a small detachment of those troops will remain here for some time longer, for the purpose of blowieg up the ruined buildings. We learn that a company, consisting of fourteen of our most eminent commercial houses, has been formed, for the purpose of advancing money on gold and plate. Each member gives security for 300,000 marks banco, and immediately advances 40,000 marks banco. A letter to the Editor of the Correspondent, states that the Johannum (or high school), by the judicious measures of brick ing up all the windows exposed to the fire, and by the employ ment of an engine inside the building, and a hose on the roof, by which all the timber work was kept constantly wet, was preserved. HAMBURGH, MAY 23.--The silver hitherto kept in the Bank was removed yesterday morning to the vaults• under the New Exchange, which were made ready for that purpose. 'f he Magdeburg Gazette publishes a long letter of the Chief President Fiottwell, who was sent to Hamburgh by the King of Prussia. It is dated Hamburgh, May 17. He ob serves that, though no beggars, or even unhappy persons la menting their misery and hopeless conlition are seen, yet many hundred families are dependent on • the compassion of their friends and acquaintances, who cannot hope to subsist, for the future, without powerful • aid ; that there are perhaps as many who, having hitherto been in pros perous circumstances, cannot conquer their repuignance to ma nifesting a feeling of distress and care, to which they have hitherto been strangers, and therefore faithful to the peculiar character of the citizens of Hamburgh, rather bear misery and want than accept relief offered them without delicacy. The noble and charitable zeal of the associations for affording relief cannot be sufficiently commended. M. Fiottwell observes, that the extent of the distress is so great, that a continuance of the kind exertions which have been so serviceably made, and which are received at Hamburgh with the utmost gratitude, should not relax ; and that, if it has been thought fit to forbid the sending of bread and other perish• able articles, yet money, clothing, and provisions, not liable to spoil, will be still acceptable. Our papers are full of accounts from all parts of Germany, announcing collections for the sufferers by the fire. HORRIBLE DEATH.—On Tuesday last an inquest was held` at the Snipe Tavern, Dukenfield, Cheshire, before Mr. C. Hudson, coroner, on view of the mutilated remains of James Ogden, aged 43 years. Deceased was an engineer at the Victoria Colliery, Dukenfield (worked by Messrs. Swyer and Lees), and on Monday was engaged, along with several ether men, in making some alteration in the rope which drew the coals up the shaft of the mine. For this purpose the deceased was standing near the top of the shaft, holding on by the rope, when, the rope being jerked by some unaccount able cause, he was thrown down the shaft of the mine and fell to the bottom, a depth of 345 yards In descending he came in contact with sundry pumps and pieces of timber, and on two persons descending to look for him, he was found quite dead, one side of his head being cut off, both his legs and thighs, ono arm, and part of one side also cut off, his bowels dashed out, and every bone in his body broken. A verdict of 6' Acciden. tal death was returned, and no blame attached to any party." MURDER OF A SON BY HIS FATTIER.—An in quest was held at North Collingham, Nottinghamshire, on the 23d of May instant, before Mr. P. R. Falkner, Coroner, over the body of Mr. George Haworth, who was a respectable cur rier, aged between 30 and 40 years. He lived with his father, but the latter had never spoken to him for upwards of two years. The deceased on Sunday last had put his horse into a cart, and was ready to start to Newark, when a neighbour, Mrs. Oilbert, called and requez,ted him to wait five minutes whilst she fetched a basket which she wished him to take to Newark. She was not absent more than five minutes, and, not seeing him in the yard on her return, with the cart, went into the hotise, when she found him in an inner room is a state of great suffering, and scarcely able to speak, with blood flowing profusely from one of his ears, at the back of which he had re ceived a violent blow. His father, who is a shoemaker, was sitting in the same room at his work, quite indifferent and unconcerned, and offered no assistance, and evinced no sympathy for his son. The father at first denied any knowledge of the injury, but afterwards confessed he had inflicted it with a thick bar of wood, with which the outer door of the hou s e was fas tened, but alleged that his son had provoked him to it. '1 he jury immediately returned a verdict of " Wilful murder" against the father, who was committed by the Coroner to the county gaol, to take his trial at the neat assizes.— Nottingham Journal. About one-fourth of the British Museum—the ancient seat or palace of the Dukes of Moutague—was knocked down to be sold as old building on Saturday last, for about 1,2001. This is too make room for the new front which is about to be commenced, the other new buildings in the gardens being completed. The'front, it is said, will be in the Greek style of architecture, the centre to be composed of a grand portico, :and nn the • extreme of each flank three handsome houses will be erected for the principal officers of the esta blishment. The separate line of rails for the London and Brighton Railway, by the side of the Greenwich line, is now complete; and the Brighton trains do not now traverse any portion of the Greenwich line. SHIPPING OF THE UNITED KINGDOM.—This re• turn is a statement of shipping employed in the trade of the United Kingdom for the years ending the sth January, 1841 and 1142. The trade of the year 1841 employed, accord• ing to the entries inward, 17,883 British ships, with 3,197,501 tonnage, and 172,404 men ; and 10,193 foreign ship., with 1,460,294 tonnage, and 81,295 men ; and accoreing to the en tries outwards, 17,633 British ships, with 3,292,984 tonnage, and 181,580 men; and 10,440 foreign ships, with 1,488,888 tonnage, and 81,672 men. The trade of the year 1842 em ployed, according to the entries inwards, 18,525 British ships, with 3,361,211 tonnage, and 178,696 men ; and 9,527 foreign ships, with 1,291,165 tonnage, and 73,634 men ; and according to the entries outwards, 18,464 British ships, with 3,429,279 tonnage, and 186,696 men ; and 9,786 foreign ships, with 1,336,892 tonnage, and 75,694 men. This comparison shows a slight increase. BRIGHTON, TIIURSDAY.—The General Steam Na vigation Company's packet, the Dart, Captain Cheeseman, ar rived at the pier-head at nine o'clock this morning, Laving per formed the passage from Dieppe under seven hours, She landed 42 passengers, one carriage, and two horses. Amongst the passengers were General lnnes and family, Captain Taylor, Mr. Atkins and family, Mr. Day and family, Lieut. Butler, R.N., and family, Mr. Packham and family. FOREIGN INSURANCES AT HAMBURGII.—The f"1- lowing, according to the Prussian State Gazetto, was the real amount of property insured at Hasnburgh in foreign insurance offices :-Ihe Sun Fire Office had policies out in Hamburgh to the amount of 3,300,000 marks banco (236,000/. ), of which about two-thirds will have to be paid; the I'hcenix and the Royal Exchange, it is believed, will be heavier losers than the Sun. Ihe Cologne Company had not more than about 400,000 marks banco (28,0001.) insured in Hamburgh, and the Aix-la-Chapelle and Munich Company about 700,000 marks banco. Of all the foreign companies the Gotha Bank will be the heaviest loser. Its losses, according to the most moderate estimate, will exceed 4,000,000 marks banco, or 280,0001. FUNERAL OF THE SUFFERERS BY THE PARIS RAILWAY ACCIDENT. —The sad and solemn ceremony of the interment of the remains of the twenty-five victims of the terrible event at Meudon which had not been removed from the cemetery of Mont Parnasse, was performed on Monday last, at eight in the morning, by the Cure of St. Sulpice and hi. clergy. After the service, which made a deep impression on all present, the bodies, which had been placed in separate coffins, were deposited in one grave. M. Boulay de la Menrthe, a friend of the family of the young Bouchard, one of the victims, who had gained several prizes in the course of his studies, delivered an oration on his untimely fate, and contain ing passages applicable to the whole of the sufferers, which produced a painful effect upon all the auditors. The grief of the father of this young man, who was present, became alarm ingly intense. The sister of another youth, who vas unques tionably lost in the same catastrophe, but whose remains could not be positively identified, added to the distressing scene by her lamentations, which she could not restrain. 'fhe Cure of St. Sulpice also pronounced a short discourse, in which he declared that a solemn mass would be performed on Tuesday, at seven in the morning, in his church, for the repose of the souls of the deceased. The solemnity was attended by a considerable number of persons, including the Mayors of tho 10th and 11th arrondissements, and the Cures of Meriden and Sevres. SWINDLING IN GLASGOW.—A man named John Harkins, or Harkinson, is now in custody upon charges of swindling of a more extensive kind than have occurred in Glasgow of late 3 ears. His custom has been to take a shop in some part of the city or suburbs, with the declared intention of commencing business, and after having got it stacked upon the promise of immediate payment, he sold the goods, and de camped to some other locality in the city, where he operated on a new set of dupes. Already there are upwards of twenty charges against the prisoner of having defrauded parties in Glasgow and Paisley, and it would appear from the variety of articles that have bet n supplied, that with him all was fish that, came in the net. To crown the whole, he is charged with stealing a horse. The prisoner, we believe, has been previously convicted of fraud and imposition in the Glasgow and Gorbals police-courts.-- Glasgow Chronicle. THE. CHURCH OF SCOTLAND. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The present state of the Church of Scotland, unhappily convulsed with internal dissensions, havin.g . often been animadverted on by you, perhaps t he for - lowing plain account of the claims of a great p ro p nr,- tion of its ministers may not be unacceptable to sues of your readers as are interested in the subject, and are not acquainted with the true nature of their pre' tensions. On the union of Scotland and England in 1707, the Presbyterian religion was recognised as the na tional religion of the latter kingdom ; but in 1712 the Parliament of Great Britain found it necessary, in order to put an end to the acrimonious discussions which often left parishes vacant for years, before the parishioners could agree on appointing a minister,tte restore to the Crown a private patron, their respectiv e rights, of which they had been deprived during the Commonwealth and reign of King William, whose dread of Popery made him anxious to conciliate the Presbyterians. The Church of Scotland has been governed by tit Act since 1712, to, the general satisfaction and gr esl ', benefit of the people, until 1834, when a majority t",. the General Assembly, without asking the cow ent of Parliament, assumed to themselves legislative powers, and in the most summary manner passed an -tke,.. 4. called the Veto, whose effect was to : render the ar pointment of a clergyman by the Crown or 11 patrons, null and void, in every case in which a nia? l , rity of the male heads of families in the parish, many them illiterate peasants, chose to say they would ne) receive him, without stating any reason for so deirO• Thus practically repealing the Act of Parliament 1712, as far as it regarded patrons, but taking esr cial care to retain that part of it by which the pre,sq.. tery becomes patron of a living, " jure devolute, Is , every case in which the patron does not present : minister within six months after the vacancy has t ake ' place. That part of the Act was not repealed ; hu tl was expressly provided. by . the General Assembly , r i direct opposition to their own Veto Act, that in ease , e appointments by the Presbytery, the dissent of, tuf, c ommunicants should not be received, the opinion ea the male heads of families should be disregarded, 0 ,, that the appointment of a minister should rest ente r eq with the Presbytery, without reference to them. As might have been expected, the right of General Assembly to repeal a statute of the ro'' was questioned by one of the patrons, and the Co , of Sessions gave a decision in his favour ; the Che carried the case by appeal to the House of Peers, a' after their own appeal to that Court of last resort h been given against them. The Non-Intrusion Cl' had the audacii:,kr to spurn their authority, and dec k ' themselves, in whNever they think fit to call spirit matters, superior to all control, as the vicegeren ts their spiritual Master, the true Head of the Churl, This is the present postion of the Church of Sce - 0 1 land, which imperatively ca!ls for the interferenc e _„ the Legislature. The Non-intrusion Ministers w; now in a state of rebellion against the State. t ed despise the Act of Parliament under which they ; came ministers, and have broken the compact the,!, entered into with the State when appointed to the:; livings ; and the ministers in several parishes , the north of Scotland, have lately levied butions from their poor parishioners, for the es°;, c t purpose of resisting the Government. To eu, l i c this, they summoned their parishioners to pau co worship on week days, when being assisted by t . 1 ,6 or three of these mock celebrated "pulpit dr_"",l ecclesiastics," they, after an appropriate sermon 7 % harangues from the preachers, produced a book signature, by which the poor ignorant people he t o . o themselves to pay them twopence per month, or t, shillings per annum, for the cause of the Chute" which, when signed by several members, of a is a heavy imposition, that will render it impcs 6 . l A , for them to assist the poor at the Sunday collects 2 an they have hitherto been accustomed to do. may at first appear of trifling amount; but if conts scheme is resorted to by all the Non-Intrusion. 3 11 48 sters, it will amount to a large sum, wrung fron l 4 it pittance of the poor, earned for tbe support of families, by the sweat of their brows i f re' Let us now examine the consequences likely suit if the claims of the Non-Intrusionists were granoy which, to people not familiar with the subject , not be apparent. The livings of the Church of Scotland Ina):T h e roundly estimated at about 200,0001. per annum. clergy who are Non-Intrusionists, wish t o hate the nomination to vacant livings plac e d en tirely in t he hands of the communicants. The ministers have " t o sole power of making communicants, and they c o refuse their tokens whenever they may chooseoo do so ; and this, with the dread of P li , d es censure, aided by the authority of the el n o of the Church, renders them at all flaws re " be , to obey their ministers ; and whenever their Chnrch comes vacant, they are ready to obey the PresbYteil.o% composed of the neighbouring ministers, and to e p_,, minute to the living the person most agreeable to th l ,P, If the Non-Intrusion Alinisters could, along withitn get the sararies of vacant livings, placed entire l y ' their o(vn disposal, without being respo n sib le t 1 " s earthly authority, th e y wou ld th us have the exe tv , e manageme n t o f t h e whole of the Church pro er. ; P And of the use to b e ma d e of theseprivilegest W C h d a : now an example before our eyes, in the case ; t er young clergyman, who was married to the datigil of one of the leading, and most popular S c t l Intrusion Ministers, who got the cornmunie ° o6 t of a vacant parish, in which the people were il i t y difficult to please, to appoint his son-in-law t ° t i l l living, without reference to the people. The w° f t be clergyman himself having, immediately a fter et , appointment of his son-in-law, submitted to the ' ll t he ing of his brethren, then assembled, resolutions f° t . ol , abolition of patronage, prepared for their considera te The real object of the Non-Intrusion Clergy ' s ot get the patronage and the uncontrolled manag e l e it of the secular affairs of the Church placed under t b i e own exclusive authority. They would then be i•of to give to their stns vacant livings, however unfi, t the situation, as well as to their sons-in-law, as the case above-mentioned; but they would shu t t he door for ever against every other candidate fer, sacred office, however well qualified by his te r acquirements, and piety, if not countenanced bY' ruling patty. In my humble opinion, there is a very simplec)l • in effectual way of allaying the present ferment, ` B . „cs , lowers the Church and the character of its minlr he I humbly propose that the law of 1712 shoal' the strictly enforced, carefully guarding a gainst Go y appointment to a living of any improper 4 64 ratter, although he may have been - prone u ' o if qualified to preach ; and I would further that every minister of the Church of Scotland P ° oll be again called upon to renew his compact wit h igi ti, State, and to swear to obey the laws of the " rendering unto Ccesar the things that a re Crel is l, and unto God the things that are God's." Andltel all those who declined to do so, should be 7 0 ,0 upon to resign their livings, giving up 111 t hif: glebe, and stipend; but still having then, in country of universal toleration, the free exercis e e 0 their opinions, and the liberty of disseminating t il it y among such of their followers as chose, like theisP, tors, to secede from the Established Church. ; 00 This would effectually prevent all future discusS.t on the subject of patronage, and we should then, ho l to be hoped, have one Minister instead of going 8- pri r the country instigating the p eo pl e t o res i s t the Got ill, meat, occupied as heret o f ore i n wor k s o f che i i ," 4 attending to their flocks, visiting the si c k, instro, c p pr the ignorant, and comforting the afflicted, and 1 ;0 ployed in all those Christian duties which m ade t siot i to be revered by their parishioners, as their friend gi k adviser on ordinary occasions, as well as their ritual guide.
