in church _property, hypocritical church-goers, ignorant theologians, peddlers of lies and deceivers of the people. • • • • T.he doctrine of the Church of England can never be destroyed, and if the present form of church government is found by experience to be useful, then let it he retained ; some government there must be, and no one will find fault with any Government When the Church stands on its own merits, and is not supported by the force and terrors of the law, and defiled by the odious corruption of wealth extorted from a re luctant people. The Church of England in America is supported by voluntary contributions, and is much more powerful, much more respected, and much more popular, than when it stood by the support of the law. The clergy Rherc do their duty, the people respect them, the Gospel is preached faithfully, and the arandalous scenes of our most corrupt establishment are entirely unknown. No Christian who seriously takes these things into consideration, can wish for a - continuance of the present evil system but all those who have been speculating in church preferment-- all those who have been buying Church livings for them selves or their families—all those who look to the votes of the Bishops and the influence of the clergy as Convenient helps to the scheme of Government--all those, whose hollow religion will stand detected when the State hypo crisy is at end—all those whose understandings have been deceived by the false doctrine of the Priestzs, and who know not what Christ's real church means—will stand amas e d and confounded at the ruin of their idol, and with loud acclamations will cry out, g Alas, alas! that great city Babylon, that nighty city; for in our hour is her judg ment come !' They, however, who know the value of the new spiritual church, the free Jerusalem, the mother of all the elect, will laugh at the notion of any Act of Parliament, or any violence of men touching her sanctuary." The number of men ie this country who think like Mr. Beverley with regard to the Church, has prodigiously increased of late.-3/OrnirtE Chronicle, The election for Cambridgeshire commences on Thursday, and we earnestly entreat the friends of Reform to reflect on the importance of a victory which, with active management and adequate pe cuniary sacrifices, must be their own. The Anti- Reformers are loudly proclaiming in the face of the nation, which has almost unanimously given the lie to their statements, that the great body of the people care little about Reform,—that. at the late general election their votes were gained by a surprise prac tised on their good faith, or a delusion imposed on their understandings, and that a reaction has begun to take place which promises to bring them back to their former indifference, or even to create an an tipathy to the proposed change. The proof, indeed., which the boroughmongers offer in support of these extraordinary assertions, is but slender and 'equivo cal, and the country is every where rising to over. whelm. it with the irresistible testimony of its meet ings arid petitions. But, however insigniacant the instance and doubtful the experiment to which they appeal, they ought not to be allowed to repeat it. When they cite the case of Dorset, they ought tot to be permitted to add that of Cambridgeshire. Yet, unless the Reformers bestir themselves, this dis grace and misfortune may be fastened on their glo rious cause. The boroughmongers, who cannot show their faces at public meetings to oppose Reform, either in town, county, city, or borough,—who are afraid even to conspire against it by holc.and.corner petitions,—who never have ventured openly to resist it by their speeches or their votes, except in certain privileged assemblies at Westminster, where they happen to be judges in their own cause,—these Sae boroughmengers, we say, expect, by the strength of ri popular delusion, or the weight of a joint-stock purse, to effect a triumph on the Cambridgeshir e hustings. We have heard, on good authority, that one Noble Lord has come down with 10,0001., as a contribution to the stock-purse of corruption, arid that other rich Anti-Reformers are following the example. Another Noble Lord has left town for Cambridge, to organize a Committee, and to make preparations for a judicious distribution of the fund to be placed at its disposal. Other agents of the borough faction are clubbing their little contribu tions of wit and their extensive means of rivi !e p tion to act on th e b o d y of the agricultural freeholders. They are endeavouring to represent Reform qs the enemy of the farmer,--to persuade him that a formed Parliament would instantly abolish ',f ee c ut ,, laws, arid that th e a b o li t i on o f the ee - i- e l aws vrould as i nfallibly lead to the linln e= l :talo 'ruin or the agri cultural interekt, The" stick at no fal-ehood or ex aggeration to their t p 4 tirpos es,—and were it necessary, ;' 1 order to gain rote, to say that wider u'he' a Reforried Parlarner:t grass would tot grow or / r i at would not ;pen, the tibstfAl delusion would ..Je attempted.

They cannot, indeed, have access to the minds, of those ignorant and misguided freeholders %%dna may vote against Reform because they are as siircy4 that Reform will destroy their agricultural rpm/verity, but they can afford the means of bring , . !iag to the poll honest and intelligent elect-err ; whose suffrages will overpower those of their deluded an .tagonists. A small contribution —say 11. or IN.— :from each zealous Refotmer of a few of the large towns—such as Leeds, Birmingham, Manchester, and, Glasgow—which are to receive their due share of representation by the Bill, would go far to over throw the last strong hold of the borough faction, and to destroy even the pretext for saying that any re-action has taken place, Let the enemy be com bated partly with their evvri 'er'.:.apons,—let money be collected to accomplish. ti:hatever money may be 'honestly employed to 4.ect at a county election. It is the battle of the P.,eformers, —it is the battle of all England that is to be fought in Cambridgeshire, and the cause o'aght not to suffer for the w a nt of funds, which. - we hope will he as abundantly sup plied, as ' zealously and honestly employed. But we must "again repeat, that if any thing is to be done, the re is no time to be lost. On Thursday next the 'election begins, and the delay of a few days may be thre .ruin cause.—Times. ite.'',:ed by one of the Evening Papers, that the Bishop of London was to have preached a sermon yesterday at the church of St. Awne, Westminster, "but that his Lordship was induced to decline the performance of that becoming duty. We are obliged, and it gives us pain to add, that the cause of his Lordship's change of intention was no other than a communication to him from the parishioners, that if thefLord Bishop should be resolved to preach, the yathole congregation would quit the church at the :moment of his ascending the pulpit. Such a proof „,af public antipathy towards the entire " order," 'whose conduct in the House of Lords was so con spicuous on the second reading of the Reform 13111, is without example in modern history, and is worth A whole library of comments. The Bishop of London .did not vote against the Bill, but then he did not vote for it ; and- the nation will not be served by halves. There are few, if any, among the Bishops themselves, who regret more sincerely than we have done for some time past, the obloquy—amounting even to detestation —Into which their order has un happily fallen throughout the United Kingdom. It is not, indeed, for the sake of the Bishops individually that such concern can or ought to be felt. However respectable they may be as private persons,—and we believe that, with half a dozen exceptions, they all, Irish as well as English,deserve to be 30 considered it is only because they haveiby their mean and selfish character as politicians,estranged a large portion of the people from the Church - itself, that welkdisposed and sober-minded meri regard - the disgrace and danger which threaten them with, any sentiment 'of sorrow or alarm. The Bishops themselves roust indeed be affected by other feelings in addition to those which their conduct has excited in the breasts of the l a i ty of their own establishment: they have keen sell reproach to pray upon them, and to aggravate the pangs of mortified cupidity and ambition. They counted it for a moral certainty, as did Lord Howe and other household personages, that there needed no more than a majority of Peers against the second reading of the Bill, to ensure the resignation of the Whig Ministers, and the return to power of that p ar ty which had always looked upon. Bishops to be essential coadjutors of the Tory policy, fit channels of convenient patronage, and worthy to be made sharers in the profits of that mode of government to the recognized operation and ends of which they lent a willing support. We are quite sure that the prudery which has been observed by most of our public men its speaking of the temporalities of the Church has been of prodigious injury to the cause of the Protestant religion. They have talked (and really seemed afraid of expressing themselves other wise) about the outward and visible organization of the Church, as if it had been established for rctgious• purposes merely, to promote the spirit of Christia nity, and the salvation of souls. Now this has given rise to most mischievous error among the igno rant,and among those who were net ignorant to a no lest shameful hypocrisy the fatter vice being made subservient to a system of sordid worldieeminded ness and rapacity, which has infinitely tended to the degradation of the clerical character, and to the corruption both of public and private morals amongst all orders of Englishmen. Reverence for Cod, and love of our neighbour, and the study of Christian truth, and the practice of those virtues which were enjoined and exemplified by its author, have not, in the nature of things, the slightest connection with Bishoprics of 10,000/. a year, with Deans and Chap ters, with pluralists, or with patronage of such enor mous value as, by becoming an object of desire to the aristoreacy, to necessitate its own flagrant and constant abuse. With such things religion can have Ino alliance; a n d y e t it he s e ver b een, w h en suc h abominations es these were complained of by the people, that a hue-and-cry has been raised at once, of the Church being in danger,—ef the Protestant religion being in danger i and then we had the ac customed yells about anarchy, infidelity, atheism, and all the rest of it, We state calmly and firmly, that this mode of defending a church on the score of its sanctity or awfulness to edification being consti tete& by its riches, is base hypocrisy, and barbarous wickedness, and has an infallible tendency to de grade all our notions of true religion—of that reli gion which was preached by Christ and his Apostles. It ought long ago, and in truth and honesty, to have been admitted, that the fctlpbral church of this country was a political establishment more than a religion' one—designed and calculated infinitely MOM for retaining men in their obedience to the monarchy of England, than for snaking them par takeri of the kingdom of Heaven. All the religious establishments of eittropean and of Asiatic monarchies have had precisely the same view,—namely, the ser vice of mere political interests ; and their poWer over tt e minds, through the selfish pessient of men, has been invariably turned to worldly and unspiritual jects. in followe, then, that however timid the na tions or their Governments may have been as to the free discussion of temporal eights and advantages claimed by what was Balled '` the Church," owing, in a peat measure, to the successful industry with which ehurehmen had inculcated upon the bulk of mankind the identity between the Christian church and her worldly endowments, it is, neneethelees, a subject undoubtedly within the pale of free and open deliberation, how far the Chu rc h o f E ng l an d , as al eeadyteestructed, has answered t he polff cal ends of its institution, or may have beep rendered pernici ously <subservient to purposes of an indefensible cha racterie and therefore whether, and to what 'extent, its poisessions and privileges might not, with advan tage, be placed upon e. less torreptible footing: The Bishops notoriously derive the renewal of their privi lege of legislating fir or against the country, from a much condemned ekercise of favour shown them by the Minister of Charles 11,, against the advise if his colleagues, There is no divine right, or sacred pre- . ecription, in their power as lawmakers. But there is in that political appendage to their station meal- eulable mischief to their sacerdotal purity, and to the interest; of the Protestant national church. We de, Sc friends to the religion of the Churth of Eng land, and to its recovered hold twin the affections of • the people, pray that the *hole bench of bishops, —.exeepting only, perhaps (for that point seems still questionable), the two Archbishops of Canterbury and York,—may, in the sherteet possible period, be excluded frees the I-louse of Peers, and sent back to their respective dioceses, where their learning,— and many of them are learned,-- - -may be employed in the useful instrection both of their clergy and their Pocks, and where their revenue, which we hope will be continued to them on a liberal scale, may afford them free exercise for the virtues of hose pitality and cf charity. Dean Coict, founder of St. Paul's School, a divine whose sentiments with regard to the duties of a Bishop will not be repue dieted be our heads of the Church as those, at least, of anenfidel or a Whig retorter, speaks plainly to the consciences of all Christian clergymen, what ought to be the employment of the worldly faculties wherewith Providence (neer have - blessed them. This friend of Erasmese and of Sir Thomas More, peached tt 'sermon before the convocation of the clergy in the year 1511-320 years ago,—wherein he taught them wisely, and boldly, how they ought to act if they would gain just honour to their ministry, and such an influence over the hearts of their congregations as might attach weight to their spiritual counsels. We make no apology for insert ing a few brief extracts from this disinterested and upright admonition, beseeching the successors of those to whom the excellent author delivered it, that they will lay it well to heart. " This reformation and restoring the church's estate must needs begin of you our fathers, and so follow in us your Priests, and in all the Clergy. " Let the canons be rehearsed, which command that be nefices of the Church be given only to those that are wor thy ; and that promotions be made by the iig h t balance of virtue, nor by nearest kindred, or carnal affection, or ac ception of persons : whereby it happened' now-a-days that boys, and fools, and ill-livers, do reign and rule in the Church, instead of old men, and wise, and good. • s .s* • " Above all things let the canons be rehearsed, that ap pertain to you, my Reverend Fathers and Lord Bishops ; laws concerning your just and canonical election in the chapters of your churches, calling upon the Holy Ghost . for because those canons are not obeyed now-a-days (but prelates are chosen oftentimes more by the favour of men, than by the grace of God), hence truly it comes to pass, that we have not seldom Bishops who have little spiritu ality in them, men rather worldly than heavenly, savouring .more of the spirit of this world than the spirit of Christ " Let the - canons be rehearsed of the residence of Bishops in their dioceses, which command that they look diligently to the health of souls, that they sow the word of God, that they thew themselves in their churches, at least on great holydays ; that they officiate in their own per sons, and do s icrifice for their people ; that they bear the causes and matters of poor men ; that they sustain father less children and widows, and exercise themselves in works of virtue. _ _ " Let the canons be rehe treed, concerning the right be stowing of the patrimony of Christ ; the canons, which command that the goods of the church he spent—not in costly building, not in sumptuous apparel and pomps, not in feasting and banqueting, not in excess and wantonness, not in enriching of kinsfolk, not in keeping of hounds ; but in things profitable and necessary for the church. For when St. Augustine, the monk, (once Bishop of Eng land), asked Pope Gregory how the Bishops and Prelates in England should spend their goods, which were the offer ings of faithful people, the said Pope answered (and his answer is put into the decrees, xii. 2) That the goods of the Bishops ought to he divided into four parts; whereof one part ought to be for the Bishop and his household, another to his poorer clergymen, the third to repair and uphold his tenements, the fourth to the poor people. " Let the canons be rehearsed (yea, and that often times), which take away the filthiness and corruption of your courts, which take away those daily new-found crafts for lucre ; which effectually pull away this foul covetous ness, which is the spring-of all the evils that we feel, the fountain of all iniquity. a When these canons are rehearsed .(aud such others as concern us, and. the correction of our manners), nothing * l7 l butl a a u c t k h i o rl y a d t t w e .t r h , e t il s a a t m o e n cbee (seeingput i in w e x e e h c a u v t i e on a ‘ w vi ii th i law) we live according to the law. For which things, with all due reverence, I call chiefly upon you, fathers (for this execution of the canons, and observing of the consti tutions), must needs begin at you, that ye may teach us priests,to follow you by lively examplea ; or else truly it will be said of you, They lay grievous burdens upon other men's backs, but they themselves will not es much as touch them with their little finger.' Matt. xxiii. 4. " For indeed if yoii keep the laWs, and first reform your own lives to the rules of the canon laws, then shall ye give us light, (in which we may see what is to be done oh our part),—that is to say, the light of your good eiample: and we seeing our fathers to keep the laws, will gladly follow their steps. " The clergy and spiritual men being thus once re formed in the church, we may then with a just order pro ceed to the reformation of the laity's part ; which truly will be very easily done, If we be fii.st reforhied our. For the body follows the soul ; and such as the rulers in the city be, such are the inhabitants. Where fore, if priests that have the charge of souls be good, the people will straight be good too. Our goodness will teach them far more clearly and effectually to be good, than all other teachings and rreathinge whatsoever : our goodness shall compel them into the right way, truly more Powerfully than all your suspensions, excommunications, and cursings. " Wherefore, if ?,'e will have the lay-people to live after your wish end will, first live ye yourselves after the will of God; and so, trust me, ye shall effect in them whatso ever ye would. " Ye would he obeyed by them ; and it is fit :ye should (for these are the wards of St. Paul to the lay people, them that have rule over you, and submit your selves ;' lleb. xiii. 17); but if you will have this obe dience, first do you perform within yourselves that, which is the reason and cause why they ought to obey you, which the said St. Paul ter..theth (and it follows in the text)_ vie. Takes ye heed diligently, as those that must give a reckoning for their souls ; and they will obey you. • I* " Ye would reap their carnal things; and gather tithes and offerings s'ithoUt contention ; and it is very fit (for St. Paul writing to the Romans saith, ' It is their duty to minister unto yon in carnal things,' Rom. itv. 27); but you ought first to sow your spiritual things, and then ye shall reap plentifully their carnal things ; for truly that man is very hard and unjust, who will reap where he never did sow, and desires to gather where be never scat tered."— Timm Bogle of the Anti-Reform Journals are endeavour ing to raise what may be justly described as a very puling sort of sympathy on bilhalf df tail Motive and one or two other persons, whose active oppo sition to the great measure of Reform has at length caused their dismissal. It is true, indeed i that the Ministers are very Muth to blame upon this sub ject; but it is a blame of a Very opposite nature to that which their oOtiottk'nts theist With. 'the real blame attaching to them is that, with a forbear ance amounting to little short of pusillanimity, they have suffered thettselves tb be bearded and opposed by the heads as well as the Underlings of various departments ; who haVe treated them throughout, according to the correct expression of a contem porary, as if, instead of being the permanent Minis ters of the Crow n; th e y we r e only ' 6 warming pans" for their peedeCesiOrS till their return to office. To such an exent has this been carried, that we could ourselves name twenty instances in which the oceupii3rs bt places of considerable emolument have openly, and without disguise (some, as in the case of the late Dorchester election), enlisted thethselVeS in the ranks of the opponents of Ministers, and have actually un furled the banner of Anti-Reform" in the very face and in the teeth of that Sovereign and his Mini sters whose bread they have at the sanie tiiiie the meanness to eat; and we are confident it would not be too much to say that the unfortunate restit of the Reform All is to 4 cettiiin dekree Ovring to this forbearance and apparent pusillanimity we are speaking of. It is surely mere than high time that such a system should cease. Its mlsthit'vons effects are too apparent to sanction its continuance for a moment longer I and if nnblenieri grai l gentlemen are not on the o ne h an d hi g h- m i n de u enough to spurn places at the price of principle, or, as we stated the other day, sufficiently prudent " to sip their porridge and hold their tongues," Ministers are imperatively Called dpbh bit all that is due to their Ring and country, as well as to themselves, not to let dismissals stop here, but to send every orb r. to the right about ' who sets himself in arruy against them, either upon the Reform question or any other. This is what the late Ministers would haVe thine. The Duke of Wellington, we will venture to say, would have suffered no open mu tineer to have continued in his camp —no, not even were his excuse that it was a mere " mistake." — Morning Herald. 'Vhatevermay be the result of the Reform question, as regards England—whether the people here will submit to any curtailment of the provisions of the Bill, or allow themselves to be finally tricked out of it altogether by Bishops and borouglimongering Peers, and Scotch Tory Lords, who have long fed their families and relations, and dependents, out of the public purse—it appears to us as evident as the sun at noon-day that the people of Scotland will never submit to the one or to the other—that they will have their Bill passed, and passed without cur tailment, or join the people of Ireland in demanding a repeal of the Union ! These people have ne Bishops among them—they have no love for them, and they will riot submit to have the question of their freedom or vassalage decided by them. At the time of the Reformation, the people of Scotland saw that if they retained Bishops among them, for whose existence in the form in which they then appeared among them, and in which they still exist in this country, they could find no scriptural foundation—they would have no safety against the return of a Catholic yoke, Catholic rites, and a Catholic religion, all of which they abhorred; and they, therefore, swept from among them the last vestige of their order—esta blished a community of rights and privileges, not only among themselves, but with the consent, or rather under the guidance, of the Reformers, among the Clergy themselves. It cost them much blood, much treasure—many years of civil discord—arid many hard-fought battles with the enemies of civil and religious freedom, before they attained this glo rious triumph over state and priestcraft :—they had the Sovereign against them—they had the Bishops against them—they had many even of a feudal No bility against them ;—but they triumphed over all— the standard of the Covenant beat down the banner of state and priest slavery, and from that moment to the present they have enjoyed a degree of religious freedom, and religious personal independence, as well as a sound Church government, which is un known in any other part of the world, and of the blessings of which they are as truly sensible as they charitably deplore the bondage in which we are held. That these things are known to our readers we cannot doubt, and we mention them simply for the purpose of asking whether a people, enjoying a truly republican government in their religions con cerns, arid who fought so hard for the freedom of conscience, are likely to give up their civil freedom without a struggle ? Whether they will submit to be dictated to by Bishops and boroughmongering Peers ? No. The days of the Covenant are still remembered among them—the armour worn by their ancestors when fighting for religious freedom is still to be found in many an humble dwelling—and if need be again, the solemn League and Covenant will be once more renewed—and the trusty weapons which cleared the country of foreigners and the enemies of civil freedom, be once more put on to beat down the enemies of their civil liberties.— Mor ?ling Advertiser. We beg to refer our readers to the great Birming ham meeting, held on Thursday —.a meeting not of the Political Union, or composed of the working classes, but of the merchants, manufacturers, and clergy--of men possessing a stake in the country, and in every respect capable of giving a sound opi nion of its affairs. And what did they say or do ? Why, they declared, in no measured terms, the bitter disappointment which they had sustained at the defeat of the Reform Bill by the House of Peers —they also declared their unbounded confi dence in the King and his Ministers—they re solved "that no measure of Parliamentary Reform, in which the great principles of disfranchisement, enfranchisement, and right of voting, are confined within more restricted limits than those recognised by the late Reform Bill, will satisfy the just claims and expectations of the people, or restore the true principles of the British Constitu i lion"--and, finally, they passed a resolution to ' the effect that " the systematic opposition of nearly the whole CorpOratien of Lords Spiritual to the constitutional rights of the people—of those who voted against the Bill and those who absented themselves—their rooted attachment to corrupt and corrupting institutions, and political disregard to the first principles of that holy religion of which they claim to be pre-eminently the Mi nisters—have justly deprived them of the national respect and confidence; and will, ultimately, be the means of depriving them of their legislative func tions." Now, my Lords Bishops, what do you think of this resolution ? In former times ye would have raised a cry of the Church being in danger, had even an approach been made to lan.; gunge of this sort—ye wduld have called on the temporal power to interfere, and intioctrit men would haVe been imprisoned because they spoke the truth :—but, thank Heaven, these times are gone by—the war-whoop that " the Church is in dan ger" will call forth but a petty band for her protection ; for in truth the Churchthe cause of religiouis in no danger---itis you only, the ministers and overseers of the Church, and not the rellgioh of the Church, which is in dangerand ye will call in vain for effectual help and support on those who were formerly your shield-bearers when the people raged against your enormous exactidng, and most un-apostolic revenues and habits. Ye have rent the veil of the Temple in twain—and its inmost recesses ate now as well known to the humblest of your flocks as they were formerly carefully con cealed from them: Would to Heaven that, instead of astonishing, dismaying, disgusting, and convert ing re(erence into contempt, and affection into hatred, they had been as pure as ye would have had your flocks to believe ! Towards the regular, and subordinatt, and Working clergy of the Church there is no feeling in the public rnind but that of tli4 respect which ought to be paid to them. They have not intermeddled to thwart the just desires of t lie people, and they will ; we hope, continue to minister to the temporal and spiritual comforts of the people, with pleasure and satisfaction to themselves, and benefit to all who attend on their ministrations. Generally peaking the; are pious and worthy men —labourers in the vineyard worthy of mote than their hire—instant in season and out of season, and neither tutning to the left or to the right in order to benefit their temporal condition: Long may they continue to be distinguished by every Christian virtue, and to prove themselves examples as well as preceptors of the divine religion which they profess But with the Bishopsit is done 8a far as regards their temporal power=they may find " a place of repentance"-but there neither is, or can be, any " saving grace" to them from the people. Their day of ilkstatted power, !loth to the Church and to the State, is fast drawing to a close ; and when questioned on their fatal vote on the Reform Bill, they may well employ the larrgnage of the Roman poet, when speaking of a very diffetent subject, " Infandum, Regina, jubea renovare dolorem." —Morning Advertiser: The allies of our revcrlotiotiary Ministers, finding it somewhat !dd hazardous to proceed further in their murderous attacks upon the persons of the Pere of the realm s or in setting fire to their castles,: are endeavouring to bet: rid of the bile which their defeat has excited, and at once to flatter and sup port their friends in the Administration, by direct ing etety species of invective, calumny, and intuit against the Prelates of the Church of England. This is very wise and very manly no doubt, and precisely the kind of conduct which was to be ex pected from Reformers of the Ministerial kidney when they found, moderate men as they are, that they could not have every thing exactly their own way, and that their patrons in power could not go so far as to assure them of entire impunity in cutting throats or burning houses in revenge of their disappointment. We hare no intension e'er thinly of undertaking the defence of the Bishops against such assailants as have yet attacked them. This we feel would be to degrade alike the Episcopal Bench and ourselves. But it may be worth while to mention one or two particulars which the reforming friends of Earl Grey and Lord Brougham constantly omit, and which are manifestly essential to any accurate or even rational estimate of the conduct and motives of the Prelacy with respect to the late Bill, not for the purpose of vindicating the latter, who assuredly need no vindi cation from us, but in order to shew how very small a portion of reflection or good sense is required to constitute that paragon of political perfection in our day, a zealous thorough-going Reformer, according to the Bill. The Bishops are, it so happens, the only class of persons who voted, in either House of Parliament, upon the Bill, with respect to whom it can be demonstrated that in opposing it they were entirely free from any personal, sordid, or cor rupt motives. There is no doubt that other men were actuated by motives equally pure with those which must have'governed the conduct of the Bishops; but the purity of motive can, we repeat, in the case of no other class of persons be so conclusively and unde niably established. The first personal interest of every Bishop who has not yet attained to the highest and the richest see is to stand well with the Adminis tration of the day, and to this he has no interest whatever of a selfish nature to oppose. While the discussion of the Bill was in progress reports of the dangerous illness of the Bishop of Durham, and of some other of the Prelates of England and Ireland, in possession of the wealthiest sees, were indus triously promulgated. Why was this ? To seduce the Bishops to vote in favour of the Bill and against their conscientious conviction. Of this there can be no doubt. Did the corrupt temptation prevail ? We triumphantly refer to the division. And why should the Bishops have opposed the Minister who was likely to have the power of rewarding their subserviency in a manner so magnificent? Was it that the Bill destroyed borough property ? Which of the Bishops, we demand, has any property of this description ? Was it that the Bill was calculated to diminish any unjust or unconstitutional power of the Aristocracy ? The Bishops are for the most part aged men, and for the most part can transmit no place in the Aristocracy to their descsndants. \Vas it that the Bill destroyed numerous corporations, or divested them of their privileges ? What have the Bishops to do with those corporations or their privileges any further than as they may consider them conducive to the public welfare ? Was it that the Bill might probably lead the way to a Reform in the Church ? What, if they be selfish or corrupt men, is the Church to them provided their life interests be protected ? And how could they so well secure that as by obeying the will of the Minister, and yielding to the clamour of the people ? If the Bishops regard the Bill as hostile to the interests of the Church, it was their duty to oppose it. If they regarded it as hostile to the public welfare, it was their duty to oppose it. In the one or the other, or of both these opinions, they may have been mistaken ; but there is no class of men who have taken a part in the question, on either side, who are so completely armed as the Prelates of the Church of England against the imputation of personal or corrupt motives. The Bishops are abused and reviled by the Reformers, then, merely because they have presumed to form and to act upon an opinion of their own, rather I than borrow their opinions from the class of persons who attempt assassination in the streets, who raise co nflagrations in the country, and, when they dare no longer pursue these very intellectual methods of proving themselves to be in the right, enter into con p• a cies to disturb the public services of religion in the parish churches of the metropolis. That the motives of the Bishops were pure and virtuous no man of common sense can for a moment doubt. That their judgment was also correct as to the cha racter and tendency of the Bill, the partisans of that measure are labouring, if proof were wanting, to supply it day after day in the greatest abundance. The Bishop of London (who gave no vote upon the measure) was to have preached yesterday at St. Ann's, Soho, in aid of the rands of a valuable local charity, and the Reformers, the allies of his Majesty's Ministers, of that and the neighbouring parishes, enter into a conspiracy to get possession of the church, to exclude the regulat. laborers, ahcl to insult the prelate, the temple, and t h at p ower to the service of which both are dedicated, by an abrupt and tumultuous departure at a given signal. The Ministerial Evening Papers of Saturday announce this intended exploit not only without any mark of reprobation;, but with undisguised satisfaction, and delight. Who can doubt, after this, that the jUdg= ment of the Bishops was correct ? Can that have been a measure worthy of their support of which so large a proportion of the advocates take pains to prove themselves the furious and determined ene- Mies of all religion ?—Morning Post. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. The Lord Mayor, upon going into the Justice. room on Saturday, was handed the following elegant epistle To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor of London, &c, &c. " 117 v Lord,—While dentoraliiing themes are lifted on the giddy pinnacle di fotttine.while even the excess of depravation can find an asylum—shall the iealotis adherent Of pure morality and mental improvement, driven on the verge of the tomb by his ardour for British ascendancy And by sickness, be denied pity ? 0, my Lord, I can give to you unequivocal proofs of my sincerity. It is not pos- Sible but the Chief Magistrate of the Metropolis cf the World will, even in equity, brit particularly of his gene rous feelings, either gr int a pass to bring me to Belfast, or yield a shilling or two and a pair of old shoes to lead Me on my sorrowful path, so far as the dry ground termi. hates. I am friendless, pennyle,s, strengthless, and home less, though influenced by my own glowing zeal and the enthusiasm of my heart to believe that I should find every Briton breathe thoee general and generous feelings which should ever distinguish the sons of fair Britannia. Will put Lordship condescend to hear a few words of an ex perimental conversation with me? I wait your Lordship's command in the ante-chamber. J. J." The Lortix MAYOR having desired that the writer of the letter should make his appearance, a man about 35 years of age, every article of whose dress was in a most poetical condition, entered from the paupers' room, to which his warm imagination had applied the more graceful epithet. Pr►y (said the LoRD MAYOR) how does it happen that such a master of language as you, are in such a woful plight ? Applicant—That is, my Lord, an ordination of Providence. I have tried my hand at all concerns, and done nothing. Providence must have had some motive for producing me, but it is the most hidden and mysterious motive in exist ence.—( Laughter.) The LOUD MAYOR—What business have you been engaged in ? Applicant—" Teaching the young idea how to shoot" in Ireland—(Laughter)— but it was hungry work; I worked all day, and had no substantial food to support me ; for though I used to cut the meat for the boys, I was obliged to shave it for myself,—(Loud laughter.) The mis tress had a sharp eye, and hated waste; ard she knew to the weight of a grain what quantity I sent down to keep life moving in me.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—They act more liberally in England. Applicant—That, my Lord, was the identical circumstance that made me direct my steps here. Go (says every one) to the Mansion-house, and see what a difference there is. —( Great laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—You mistake me, my friend. I mean the keepers of schools. You will have a better chance of good treatment here in your profes sion. Applicant—l hope so, my Lord. But I was as sured that the schoolmaster was abroad every where in England ; and, by the virtue of my oath, I have never seen a man since I landed on your shlres that ever yet appeared to have met him.—(Laughter.) Where's the use in instructing the obstinate and the brutal ? I sent a play, a tragedy, to Drury-lane Theatre, and they promised to bring it out before the public, but it was obliged to yield its place to the dragons, tigers, and polecats, although there was not a line in it that was not the height of morality and virtue.—(Laughter.) A gentleman, who was present, said that he be lieved the tragedy would have been brought out, were it not for the engagement of Mons. Martin and his domestics. Applicant—They wanted me to introduce the natives of the woods and wilds, and desolate places, but I told them I did not understand the language, and so they employed one of the link-boys, and they allow him the privilege of driving the two trades— incendiary and dramatist.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—WeII, I regret to see you in such a condition. Your habits, I am afraid, must he rather uneconomical, or you would not be so ragged. However, you shall have a few shillings and something to corer you, and I will send you home. Applicant—Most respectfully I thank you my Lord Mayor; and if ever you come to Irelatid, and happen to be in the same condition that I am, you shall command my services. —(Loud laughter.) GUILDHALL. As the Board of Health have pointeLl out, as being the most liable to that fearful disease, the cholera morbus, the very class of persons with which our prisons and police-offices are filled daily, namely, " the poor, ill-fed, and unhealthy part of the popu lation, and especially those who have been addicted to drinking spirituous liquors, and indulgence in irregular habits," many expect that when the air becomes pregnant with the infectious matter, the disorder will first exhibit itself among the descrip tion of persons who frequent our police-offices and prisons. Saturday, there being about seventy per sons in this office at the same time, crowded toge ther below the bar, Mr. Alderman GARRATT said, that as the Government had deemed it now neces sary to call on the Magistracy to use their utmost exertions to point out and warn the public against the danger of contagion, and as prisons and police offices appeared, from observations that had been made, to be places of imminent risk, he considered it his duty to caution all persons who really had no business to transact there against remaining in the room. He did not touch the question that they might lawfully be present, but he merely threw it out for their consideration, as many of them, per haps, have not yet heard of the important document which had been issued by the Government, and were not aware how near the danger was considered. lie might add, however, that unnecessary alarm should be guarded against, as it might so influence the bodily health as to predispose the party to infec tion, and he thought every person who came there without fear would probably go away harmless. In the course of a few minutes several persons took the hint and retired. MA.RLB OR O U Glb STREET. iliichael Kelly, residing in Leicester-street, Re gent-street, was charged with violently assaulting a young widow of respectable appearance. The case was of an extraordinary character. The widow stated that she had been spending the evening at her brothel's, where she had partaken freely of liquor. On her coming out into the air she became insensible, and on her recovery from her stupor she was alarmed on finding herself in bed with the pri soner. She instantly jumped up, and endeavoured to leave the house, but was prevented by the pri soner. A violent struggle ensued, during which he forced away an iron window-bar, which the com plainant had caught hold of, and attempted to throw her on the bed. Her screams brought up the land lord, when the prisoner threatened to murder him if be attempted to enter. Two policemen, how ever, were called in, and the prisoner conveyed to the station-house. The prisoner, in defence, said, that she had con sented to accompany him for money; but the com plainant declared most solemnly that she had no money with her, which was confirmed, and that her character hitherto would bear the strictest in vestigation. The Magistrate observed, that, under the cir cumstances, it would be impossible to entertain the principal charge; but that he should fine the prisoner 3/. for the brutal assault. In default of payment, he was committed for six weeks to hard labour. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. LONrION MARKETS.
