By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management Is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuab contribution, both to the general and p ro f ess i ona l reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

THE SUN, LoNDor,, FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 5, 1861. R.E.P0.R411 _DEMONSTRATION AT EXETER. A large and influential meeting of tho Liberals of Exeter was held on Tuesday evening at the Atheneum, the room being crowded. Mr. TREHANE presided, and before commencing the pro ceedings read two or three letters he had received excusing the absence of certain gentlemen. The first was from Mr. Divett, their member, who stated that he should have liked to have been present, but his engagements put it quite out of his power. Lord Poltimore's letter stated that he could not attend the meeting because he chi not at that moment take a sufficient active part in politics to warrant his so doing. The chairman then said two years and a month ago he occupied the position he now took, and the meeting then was crowded. Their member, Mr. Divett, was pre sent, and all the leaders of the Whig party, and hundreds of parties who attempted to get into the room were obliged to go away disappointed. They met to endeavour to pre vent the Reform Bill which the Tories had brought in from being carried, as it was not an effective one. How ever, he exceedingly regretted now that they did not take that bill, for he would rather have a half loaf than no bread at all. (Hear, hear.) If they had accepted that bill, they would have been far in advance of the position they then held. (Applause.) The Government of that day were turned out of office upon the question of reform, and the Whigs went into office upon the full understanding that they were to introduce a perfect Reform Bill. But he begged to ask them where it was. He diel not know, and he be lieved neither Lord Palmerston nor any other member of the House of Commons ever meant to bring in one. They shifted office one from another—from Lord Palmerston to Lord Derby. then from Lord Derby to Lord Palmerston; then back again, and so this state of things continued. Mr. Divett told them they would not get a reform bill, and he (the chairman) believed the Government would rather see the country excited to the greatest possible extent, than give up one iota of the power they now possessed ; and it became them as citizens and burgesses to look into the mat ter. Many of those present would be returned next Monday in the schedule of the census as tax-payers of this country, and he would tell them that the expenditure of the country Was really a frightful one. They were taxed at something like £72,000,000 or £75,000,000 per annum; that amounted every month to £6,000,000, and every week to £1,500,000, and every time they heard the clock strike, day or night, there was £lO,OOO of their money gone, spent by the Go vernment. Some two months ago a gentleman in the House of Commons moved for a special committee to look into the navy estimates, and inquire into the mode of operation adopted by the Admiralty. The report was brought up three weeks ago, and it was a startling thing that no one in this country, except those on the committee, knew what was the cost of their navy. When a commission made inqui ries into the expense of maintaining the Woolwich dock yard, it was found that in six months no less than eight thousand mistakes had occurred. It was a marvellous thing that a country like this should allow Government to spend money at the rate they were now doing ; by and bye, instead of having £72,000,000 or £75,000,000 to pay—fifty years ago they only had £52,000,000 —in a few years they would be taxed to the amount of £100,000,000. (Hear.) The expenditure of this country, he again repeated, was frightful, and it was quite time that the franchise should be more extended ; that they should have populous boroughs enfranchised where petty boroughs now existed— (applause)—and that the people should have something like an interest in the management of the affairs of the country. There was Dartmouth (a marvellously fine town) returned one member ; Totnes (my Lord Seymour's pocket borough), two; Tavistock (Lord John Russell's pocket borough), two ; and a lot of other small towns which con tained about 16.0•- 0 inhabitants were returning some six or seven members, while other large towns returned none, as for instance, Torquay, Birkenhead, and Chelsea. With reference to the qualification of voters, why should not he (the chairman), if he rented a house at Torquay at £45, have a vote as well as the man who lived at Totness and rented a house at £lO per annum? The Government had refused them a reform bill out and out, and they laughed at them—and laugh at them they would. Some gentlemen said if they could not get a bill in a bulk they would have it piecemeal, but the Government turned round and said they could not give it to them piecemeal. They told them they did not want reform, for they did not kick up a row ; if they were to get into a semi-state of revo lution they would have it ; but not like the Emperor of Russia who voluntarily emancipated his serfs—(applause) —and this taught them to respect his government for its paternal and kindly character—their Government were try- ' ing to keep them down and rob them. (Cheers.) It was high time something should be done, and that as men they should express their opinions honestly, and if they expressed them freely and in all good nature, they would let the Go. vernment know they were not their slaves, and that they would not allow them to place their hands in their pockets. The chairman then called upon Mr. JERWOOD to move the first resolution, as follows : " It having been admitted by the House of Commons and by successive Governments that a reform of our representative system was desirable and necessary, such a reform having been recommended by her Majesty in her speech from the throne, promised by her Ministers, and expected by the people, this meeting regrets that the present Government should have abandoned the measure." Mr. Jerwood said he fully concurred in the desirability of having meetings like the present, in order to make known the wishes of re formers. The chairman had made some very just stric tures upon what had and what had not been done by the Government, but he, for one, should shift some of the blame upon themselves. He was not exactly. sure that they had worked for what they wanted—that they had expressed themselves in such a way as that it was impos sible for them to be misunderstood, and he trusted that in meetings like the present in future there should be no mis take in the matter. Let them consider the question of re form in all its bearings, for it had a great many. He believed, and he had no doubt that all sincere reformers believed, that each of those parts was out of order. For instance, there was the number of voters who at present had the elective franchise. Was that as it ought to be ? (No.) If not, how should they make it ? They ought not to sit pas sively, but they should bring forward a measure that was feasible. Had all the privilege to vote who ought? (No.) He should say not—(A Voice : Not a hal f)—for there were thousands and tens of thousands outside the range of voters, who ought to possess the right fully as much as those who had it. But had they asked for it ; had they, the reformers of Exeter, petitioned and asked for it to a certain extent ? No Government would come and ask them what they wanted, and therefore it was better for them to express themselves now in an unmistakeable manner. What ought to be the qualification of voters ? Should it be an in dividual suffrage ? He was disposed to think there was no chance of getting that, however theoretically true it might be. By and bye, when education had spread, and had had its proper effect upon the individual community, would be the time to consider that question. But now there was a vast number of men duly qualified by position, literary at tainments, &c,, to have the electoral franchise which they were now shut out from. They ought to point out what they wanted, and what they wished to have. [A Voice : The ballot.] He believed that would enable the voter to vote as he liked, but then there were many sincere re formers who objected to that part of the bill. What they proposed was, that there should be an extension of some thing like electoral districts. Let them do away with their pocket boroughs; for unless they did, they could never expect to have a House of Commons that would mind as they should the - monetary affairs of the kingdom. As long as those little pocket boroughs existed they would have a corrupt, and he might almost call it a base, House of Commons. What they said was, that if these districts had not less than five thousand voters, they need not be afraid of bribery being carried on. He believed, and he said it at once, he for one would not give a straw for the ballot. (" Can't do without it 1") The question was, did they wish to do away with these rascally rotten boroughs ? As long as they were allowed to return mem bers, then government would squander away millions without giving them an account of how the money was spent. In order to have any effective reform, he was deci cidedly of opinion they must have meetings like these, at which they should distinctly express their feelings. Thoy must not blame the Government, however extravagant they were, for it was the people of England who found the tools to keep the Government corrupt. They, the re formers, had been exceedingly supine, and it was unjust to blame any Government, whatever that Government might be, if the reformers were so indifferent as not to ask for anything themselves. If they pressed for any measure and the Government did not attend to them, then they would have reason to blame them ; but as long`as they sat still and allowed the Government to go on they deserved all they got. (Laughter.) Mr. LATIMER, in seconding the resolution, said it was very much to be regretted that Mr. Locke King's bill, for giving a £lO franchise to counties, was not taken up in the spirit it should have been. There was now, he said, a bill before Parliament giving a £0 franchise to cities and boroughs, which had not been supported by the public. as it ought to have been. The £0 franchise would add to the constituency of that city no less than 700 electors ; and how many of that 700 who were now, shut out from the representation were present that evening? (Hear.) He, too, thought it was very idle to be throwing-all the blame upon the Government, who were the ministering servants of this country. (Hear, hear.) He thought they were wrong in declaring that they would have particular mea sures, for they should remember they had got their liber ties thus far by taking them bit by bit, as they could get it, always resolving that the p3wer they got to-day they would use to get more to-morrow. (Hear.) It was said that because the Government were not pursuing the ques tion of reform they were doing wrong, and they had better have Lord Derby'e Ciovernment, He Agreed with the chairman that his bill would have been better than the state they were now in, but there were many objections to it. The intention of Mr. Disraeli in bringing in that bill was rather to present a boon with one hand and withdraw it with the other. He thought while they adopted this resolution, which he had great pleasure in seconding, and which they might adopt with all their hearts, They must not forget they had a duty themselves to carry out, and that while they met there to complain of the Government they ought also to complain of themselies. Whatever they wanted they must plainly utter, and declare they would have it. (Applause.) The resolution, on being put, was cariied unanimously. Mr. NORRINGTON then moved the following resolution : " That this meeting considers a bill should be at once intro duced, having for its object a large extension of the fran chise, a fair distribution of seats, and the protection of the voters." Mr. WEBBER seconded the resolution, which was also carried, as was another adopting a petition founded upon the resolutions previously passed. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER, THURSDAY. Heretofore the only horse mentioned in the betting upon the Metropolitan Stakes was Betts, but from Danae's per formance in the. Great Northamptonshire Stakes, that ani mal has now joined her, besides being made the favourite at 9 to 2, an offer to lay 8 to 1 against Betts for the first named event meeting with no response. For the City and Suburban the only change which took place was the sup port given to Physician and Gabrielle d'Estrees, the former being backed at 100 to 8, and the latter at 20 to 1. For the Two Thousand Guinea Stakes, Diophantus, with very little outlay at 8 to 1, was placed in the front position, Ma tador was very firm, but 8 to 1 was declined, and the " of fered" division was represented by Kettledrum, Klarikoff, and Sweet Hawthorn. Considering thatmany of the sub sc'ribers had' returned from Northampton, there was but little doing. CLOSING PRICES.

The legitimist and ultramontane party pretends that the Roman question is not purely political, but essentially religious, and that it is not the rights of the Italians but the interests of the Catholic world that are at stake ; is other words, that the Pope has need of a temporal kingdom to be inde pendent in the spiritual one. Historically and doctrinally this is a radical error. There does not exist—there never has existed—a theologian who has regarded the temporal power of the Pope as a dogma, as an article of faith, as un essential part of Catholicism. " Where Peter is," said St. Augustine, " there is the church ;" and the Union, doubtless, is acquainted with the following unanimous decision of the commentators of the canon law :—" It is certain that God has founded His church, not in one place in particular, but in the person of Peter." Consequently, it is not necessary that the Pope should reside at Rome ; he might be transported to Jerusalem, to St. Helena, to Oceania, without his displacement in the least affecting the Catholic religion or the apostolic see. Some days ago, the Monde having pretended that before the French revolution nobody " had dared to deny the temporal power of the Pope," we informed it that Gelasius 1., in 493, and Nicholas 1., in 863, two great Popes and two great saints, had formally and implicitly declared that the simultaneous exercise of the royal and sacerdotal power is "an invention of the devil." We have asked how Catholics could at this day treat those who wish to strip the Pope of his temporal power as children of the devil P We have not had any answer from the Monde, and we are still waiting for one from the Union. The Popes of the first eight centuries—and they are the best, the greatest, the most illustrious for learning and sanctity—were subjects of the empire, exercised no temporal power, and could not call a rood of land their own; and Martin 1., for having wished to make himself independent, was accused of high treason, arrested, conducted to Constantinople, tried, condemned, and banished to the Crimea, where he died a year afterwards. Of two things, one—either the Popes of the first eight centuries exercised their apostolic ministry in its plenitude, and accordingly the temporal power was absolutely unnecessary to them ; or else, if the temporal inde pendence is an/ essential condition of spiritual inde pendence, the Popes for eight hundred years were in a position incompatible with the government of the universal church. For thirty years the Roman States have been occu pied by the Austrians or by the French, and at this day, without the protection of our soldiers, the Papal Government would not live twenty-four hours. Kept under the thumb, now of Austria, now of France, has the Priest-King been independent P These are the questions which we submitted to the Union, and which that journal refuses to discuss, a fact which does not withhold it from affirming that its adversaries, seeking " the popularity of numbers," play politics " without meditation and without study." We don't care to insist on the point. The Union pretends that the word "stage," which it made use of, shocks us, and adds, " let us call it, then, a platform." Since the Union takes this tone, it compels us to tell it that what revolts all the religious men in Europe, without distinction of creed, is precisely the seeing brought on a stage the religion which everyone respects in its churches and venerates on its altars. The self styled Catholic journals, according to their wont, have seized the occasion of the beautiful ceremonies of the holy week to outrage their adversaries. They have made the most touching memories an argu ment for the most detestable of causes. Religion, in their hands, becomes a matter of business, and in the forcible and expressive language of the poet, they have taken the bloody nails of the cross and hung them as a sign over their shop. ME NEW FRENCH MARSHAL. The Moniteur gives the following account of the long career of the new marshal : " Marshal Count d'Ornano is not only an old sol dier of the Empire, but he is the only officer in the world who for the long period of nearly fifty years held the grade of general of division. " He was born in 1784 at Ajaccio, and at the age of 16 entered the army as officer in the 9th Dragoons. He served in the campaign of Marengo, and afterwards went to San Domingo as aide-de camp of General Leclerc. He was subsequently one of Berthier's staff, and afterwards became commander of the battalion of Corsican rifle men. At the head of that battalion, in the battle of Austerlitz, he took several pieces of cannon, and for so doing received from the hand of the Emperor, and on the field of the battle, the Cross of Officer of the Legion of Honour. After the battle of Jena he was appointed colonel of the 25th Dragoons, and distinguished himself in the campaigns of Prussia, Poland, Spain, and Portugal. Among other things the regiment forced the passage of the Navia, captured a battery of four guns in the combat of Alba de Tormes, and made a brilliant charge in the battle of Fuentes de Onore. For this last exploit Colonel d'Ornano was made General of Brigade, and in 1812, five days before the battle of Moscow, was promoted to the grade of general of division, and appointed commander of the seven regiments which formed the cavalry of the 4th corps d'armee. In that battle he executed with 3,000 men a charge on the 10,000 horsemen of the Hetmann Platoff in such a brilliant mangier as to free the extreme left of the grand army, and to contribute greatly to the success of the day. At Malojaros jawitz, the first serious affair after Moscow, Ornano's cavalry so greatly distinguished itself that Napoleon said to Prince Eugene, commander of the 4th corps, " The honour of this day belongs entirely to you." Subsequently, at Krasnoe, a singular circumstance occurred ; the general was believed to be dead, and a funeral service was celebrated for him in presence of Count de Tascher la Pagerie, aide decamp to the Prince, and yet he revived, and proceeded to Wilna in the Emperor's own carriage. In 1813 he commanded a division of the Imperial Guard at Dresden, and gained great distinction ; and at Hanau, at the head of two divisions, he covered himself with glory, and re ceived the Grand Cross of the Order de la Reunion —a distinction rarely given, and which he now alone possesses. In 1814 the general, notwith standing his youth—only 30 years—commanded all the Imperial Guard that remained at Paris, in fantry, cavalry, and artillery, and was intrusted with the duty of protecting the city, and of watch ing over the safety of the King of Rome, and of King Joseph, Lieutenant-General of the Empire. In the battle of Paris, at the head of 6,000 soldiers, he took part in the defence of the capital. He afterwards joined Napoleon at Fontainebleau, and when the latter, seeing that his abdication in favour of his son was not accepted by the sovereigns, thought of continuing the war and of falling back behind the Loire, he gave him the command of the cavalry. The general was at FontainebleanWhen Napoleon took leave of the cavalry, but he was not at Waterloo, as he was at the time suffering from a very severe wound. Since then the general has been Inspector-General, Commander of the 4th Military Division, Grand Chancellor of the Legion of Honour, and since 1853 Governor of the In valides." The new Marshal is also a Senator, a member of the Council of the Imperial family, and a Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour.

An excellent start was effected, and instantly Queens ferry rushed to the front, followed by Fern, Robin Red• breast, and The Nigger, the others lying close up. On reaching the water jump, the leading horses got safely over. Gaslight, Borderer, and Bantry, less fortunate, fell on land ing and received a bath. After this contretemps the horses settled down in their places, the favourite still leading, and in company with Fern, The Nigger, Robin Redbreast, and Limner, carried on the running over the succeeding fences to the brow of the hill, where the field was further reduced by refusals. On clearing the cut fence on the brow Queens ferry was seen in advance, closely followed.by Fern, Robin Redbreast, Limner, The Jester, The Nigger, and Socks, Bantry following on some distance in the rear. Little or no alteration occurred in the order of running until rounding the flag in front of the Stand, where The Limner obtained the second place, Socks going on third, and Robin Red breast fourth ; then came The Jester, The Nigger, and Fern, the latter three evidently having had enough of it.

Shortly after Black Rose fol lowed suit, leaving Flora Temple in possession of the lead, which she held to the fence before the brook, which she re fused.

IcL 4D , STAMPED, SD. ROYAL NATIONAL LIFEBOAT INSTI- TUTION. Yesterday a meeting of the Royal National Life boat Institution was held at its house, John-street, Adelphi, Thos. Chapman, Esq., F.R.S., V.P., in the chair. There were also present Admiral Cator, Capt. Sir Edward Peivatt, Bart. ; Admiral Sir Thos. Herbert, K.C.8., V.P. ; Capt. De St. Croix, Alex. Bodefeur, Esq., Admiral Bullock, Colonel Palmer, and Admiral Bethune, C.B. Mr. LEWIS, the Secretary, read the minutes of the previous meeting. A reward of £l4 was voted to the crew of the Institution's lifeboat stationed at Portmadoc, for putting off on the night of the 6th ultimo, during a heavy of wind, and rescuing, after toiling hard all night, seventeen of the crew of the ship Danube, of Belfast, from New Orleans to Liverpool with cotton. The ship's masts had been eut away dur ing the awful night, and eight of her crew had abandoned her, and, with one exception, they all fortunately succeeded in reaching the shore. The poor man who lost his life was drowned in the surf while attempting to land from the boat. A reward of £l2 was also voted to the crew of the Boulmer, Northumberland, lifeboat, belonging to the institution, for putting off and saving four out of five of the crew of the Hanoverian schooner Hortensia, which, during stormy weather, thick with rain, was wrecked on Boulmer Rocks, on the night of the 27th ult. In consequence of the very heavy surf on the shore, it being low water at the time, and the night being very dark, much difficulty was experienced in getting the lifeboat afloat. Three times she was filled with heavy seas, but at last her launching Was successfully accomplished. After reaching the wreck, the master positiply refused to leave it. Shortly afterwards the vessel was driven to pieces on the rocks, and the master, who was drunk, perished, entirely through his obstinacy, not tOwever before the lifeboats crew had made two most daring and determined 4 - tempts to save his life. A reward of .£l3 was likewise given to the crew of the lifeboat of the institution at Holyhead, for putting off during the night of the 6th ult. and rescuing during a strong gale of wind the crew of four men of the schooner Elizabeth, of Bridgwater, from their boat. The vessel had driven close to the rocks, on which the heavy sea was breaking in tremendous force. Her crew had tried to escape by their own boat, but had failed from the violence of the wind and sea. They were taken on board the lifeboat and safely landed at Holyhead. Early the next morning the schooner's crew with five of the lifeboat men were put again on board the vessel, which had held on, and which was afterwards brought safely into harbour. Payments amounting to £66 were also made to the crews of the institution's lifeboats at Aberdo vay, Arklow, Ayr (in Scotland), Barmouth, Pad stow, Rhoscolyn, Whitburn, and Yarmouth, either for putting off to ships in replies to signals of distress, or for assembling during stormy weather, so as to be ready for any emergency that might arise. The silver medal of the institution was presented to Mr. James Cox,- coxswain of the Appledore, Devon, lifeboat belonging to the institution, for his general gallant services in aiding to save a number of lives from eleven different wrecks on Bideford bar. The society's silver medal was likewise given to Henry Preetnan, in testimony of his gallant services in the Whitby lifeboat, which did not belong to the National Lifeboat Institution, on the 9th February last, when he had gone off in her five times to rescue five shipwrecked crews. The silver medal of the institution was also voted to Captain A. Dower, R. N. Barron, Esq., and £4 to four other men for putting off in a fishing boat during a heavy gale of wind, and saving, at great risk of life, two out of six of the crew of the brig Susan, of Cork, which was wrecked off Bal linacoerty, on the 19th February last. The crew were seen early in the morning holding' on to the rigging while the seas broke fearfully over the vessel. The nearest lifeboat of the institution was ten miles off, and while she was being sent for by express the vessel was seen to break up, and the heartrending cries of the unfortunate sufferers in the rigging were distressing in the extreme. At this juncture a boat manned by six daring men was launched, and succeeded in rescuing two men, four others having been unhappily washed off the wreck and drowned. The institution's silver medal was likewise pre sented to Mr. H. Cooper, Chief Officer of the Coast Guard, and £3 to three other men for putting off in a small boat, and rescuing at great risk of life two men from a piece of the wrecked bark Florence Graham, of Liverpool, which, during , a heavy gale of wind, had been wrecked in Dingle Bay. Twelve of the crew had previously unhap pily perished by the capsizing of the ship's longboat in attempting to land. A reward of £6, in addition to £lO received locally, was also given to six men for putting off in a boat and rescuing at great risk of life, four out of five of the crew of brig Sir Allan I‘l‘l\Tab, of Mary port, which during a terrific gale of wind was wrecked near Courtown, on the coast of Wexford, on the 10th ult. After pulling three miles, and after a most severe and determined struggle, they succeeded in reaching the wreck and taking off the crew in a most exhausted state. One poor fellow died soon after he reached the land. A. reward of £l3 10s. was also voted to the Crew of two fishing cobles, for putting off and saving the crews, consisting of 15 men of the brigs. Gr Ices, of Seaham, and Juno, of North Shields, which were wrecked in Robin Hood's Bay during a strong gale of wind on Feb. 9. Various other pecuniary rewards were also voted for saving life from different wrecks. It was reported that the institution had lifeboats ready to be sent to Whitby, in Yorkshire, and Irvine, in Scotland, and that a benevolent gentle man had presented £315 to the institution to en able it to plant an additional lifeboat on some ex posed part of the coast. - The committee decided to form a lifeboat estab lishment at Aberystwith, in Wales. An additional lifeboat contribution to the insti• tution of £3O was announced from the Royal Thames Yacht Club. Payments amounting to £726 having been made on various lifeboat establishments the proceedings closed. THE EXHIBITION OF 1862. In anticipation of a speedy adjustment of the present strike, the labourers of Messrs. Lucas and Kelk have been actively engaged on the site of the proposed building, getting the first foundations ready. The ground, therefore, has not only been broken, but a greater part of the outline of the foundations excavated, and the concrete is now being laid beneath the bed of gravel. Owing to the enormous weights of some parts of the super structure the first foundations have to be made with unusual care and solidity. In some parts the concrete is laid to a depth of 15 feet, and over the whole area of the building the average depth will be more than three feet., If, at the meeting of the trades' union to be held this day, the strike should terminate by the men's acceptance of the proffered half-holiday, the work of laying the brick founda tion will be at once proceeded with, and probably within another month some 3,000 men will be in full employ upon the building. The cast iron por tion of the edifice will all be made at the Staveley Works, near Stafford. The order for the wrought iron has not yet been given out, but it is probable it will be executed in or near London. In the meantime the Royal Commissioners have frequent meetings, and are rapidly organising in every de tail the whole of the plan, the outlines of which as to classes have already been laid before the public. Two days ago, through Lord Cowley, they received an official letter from M. Thouvenel, stating to the commission that the Government of his Imperial Majesty had heard with sincere pleasure of the in tended international display, and that the commis sioners might feel assured that the proposal would meet with most hearty concurrence and support from all classes of manufacturers in France. Yes terday the commission met to consider as to the choice of a principal manager. This will be a most important post, since the qualifications required are that the gentleman should be of consummate ability — a good linguist, of imperturbable good temper, capable of working perpetually without any relaxa tion whatever, and, above all, accustomed to con trol an army of paid and unpaid assistants, the latter being, of course, the most difficult of the whol° team. There are only two candidates for this re sponsible post on the list at present, an d the com missioners would not be sorry to have a choice. The app li cat i ons f or space are n ow coming in from all parts of the k i ngdom, b ut i n a dilatory whole and incomplet e m a n ner . A s the larger arrange ments for the display must be based entirely on these applications, it is necessary that the various traders and manufacturers should s end them in as rapidly as possible, and aboveaaclirtehgautirl they and eyshou fo ld r state clearly the amount Of 13 1 3 e what objects. Yesterday a vestry meeting was held in th i e veqtry' room, St. Philip's, Stepney, for the eWiort-zof churchwardens. The church was very much crowded, in consequence of a notice signed by the Ocliv t I ar e d En s the Rev. M r . Bonwell, and a rumour that he intendedto make hi s appe a rance. Shortly after twelve that g t aq assembled, was received with some hissirg, c v n e t s e t r r e 3 d ., t w h h e u t t e ch p __ Eis tin is d li opnreei2G were e ie din r g e Mr. BON WELL remarked that the persous who , hissed were not either Christians or Churchmen to behave in such a way in a sacred edifice, An adjournment to the church was at once agreed to. The Rev. Mr. BoNwfia, said that he wished to explain why he had come to take the chair on that occasion. He had a right to do so ex officio. He bad always been anxious to contribute to the peace. of the parish, and the Bishop of London had in duced him to sign an agreement that if he (Mr. Penwell) would not interfere with Mr. Hills (the appeal was pendi ng e th u a ra t te his in lo c r h d a s r h g ip e) would whiie a t l i l l e e w him (Mr. Bonwell) half the fees. These fees were taken by the bishop's secretary, and kept by him, and but that eonie friend had been raised up to him he should not have been in a position to come to the church that day. He had been to Mr. Lee, and found that many of his private papers had been lost from the school-room ; and much as the people of that end of London had been maligned by the press, with reference to St. George's-in-the-East, he had always been treated with forbearance by the people there. If the Bishop of London had kept his word, and acted in accordance with the agreement, he should not have come, but his fees were kept back, and week after week he had been left without a penny in his pocket. He had been informed that some one in the parish had said it was intended to keep back the fees as long as possible, on purpose to crush him still more, and therefore he appeared there to appoint his own churchwarden to look after his interest, in some degree at all events. He could not help repeating, that the bishop had not kept his word ; an d i t was a frightful thing to knew that a Christian 'minister should be living in two palaces, like Dives, and keeping his rights away, Nth°, NVELS obliged tolie, like Lazarus, doctored by dogs and comforted by crumbs. He appointed Mr. Fitzgerald O'Brien, of , 19, Markilane, as.his churchwarden. Mr. BANTER inquired whether this-, gentleman had paid any taxes yet. I„Triless he had paid taxes, he could not be recognised as a parishioner. Mr. BONWELL said Mr. O'Brien was a house holder, and that was sufficient to satisfy the Act of Parliament. After a long discussion on thi s p o i n t it was pro posed by Mr. White that Mr. George Elmom should be the parish churchwarden. Mr. PREECE said it would be very important for the parish to know what was the exact state of its affairs. The incumbent had brought into the parish as his nominee a gentleman whose appoint ment was clearly illegal. He thought it would have been more honourable on the part of Mr. Fitz gerald O'Brien if he had faced the meeting and given some account of himself. He should like to know who Mr. O'Brien was. Mr. BONWELL said he wavithe managing clerk to a firm of solicitors in Mark-lane, and was a man of education and intelligence. Mr. BANTER said it was a great piece of effron- • tory on the part of the rev. gentleman to come there and palm off upon the parishioners a person they did not know as churchwarden. He was very happy to hear that the bishop had deprived him of his fees, and hoped he would continue to do so. Mr. BONWELL—Nobody else says so. There wants a great reformation in the Church. (Laugh. ter and clapping of hands.) Mr. PREECE again protested against the church warden named by Mr. Bonwell, and assured the rev. gentleman that the appointment would be resisted. This was not a question of Puseyism, but of morality or immorality in the Church, and he trusted that all their operations, both with regard to the church and the schools, might be so con ducted that the young of the parish might-be un sullied. He could not help thinking that it was a degrading thing to be in a sacred edifice talking te) the clergyman about his moral and spiritual duties. Ho should deeply regret if Mr. Bonwell had any further connection with the parish. The nomination of Mr. Elmore, as the parishioners' churchwarden, was then agreed to. Mr. BONWELL, in the course of a second address, loudly declaimed against the unfair manner in ' which, as he alleged, he had been treated by the bishop. If it had not been for the way in which the press had treated him, he might have been able to earn a living, which was impossible for any one to do while under its ban. During the fourteen. years he had been in the parish he had spent £9OO in the schools, and had worked more, as the late Bishop of London had told him, than all the clergy men of St. Paul's Cathedral put together. He had only come there to do that which the law allowed him, and threw himself on their generosity to treat him with fairness. The Rev. J. G. HILL (the curate in charge of the parish) reverting to the remarks made by Mr. Bonwell on the Bishop of London, said that no one who had watched the career of the Bishop of Lon feltdonconnection `thepresentthetimeproceedingshislordship's could h ave any doubt of the deep sympathy lie for a ll c l asses in his diocese, whether clergy or laity._ The parishi oners m i ght not be aware that on in well had exceeded £l,OOO. With regard to the arrangement by which Mr. Bonwell was to receive half the church fees weekly, he might remark that it was not issued from headquarters, but was the mistake of One of the servants in the solicitor's office, the arrangement being contrary to the wishes. of the bishop's legal advisers. The meeting then broke up. MURDER BY A BRAZILIAN SEAMAN. At the Liverpool Assizes, on Tuesday, before Mr. Justice Hill, Joachim Francisco; a Brazilian seaman, was indicted for the wilful murder of another foreign seaman named Francisco, in Liver pool, on the 17th of March. The crime was perpetrated in the immediate neighbourhood of a house in Carpenter's-row, which was occupied by a person named Florentine, and used as a boarding-house for foreign sailors. It was frequented chiefly by South Ame rican sailors, both Spanish and Brazilian. On the night in question both the deceased and pritioner was staying there, when the prisoner kissed a girl in the house named Mary M'Nalty. She resented the liberty, and the deceased having his 'attention called to the circumstance, spoke to the prisenet. A challenge to fight was given by the prisoner to the deceased, and the parties went out of the house for the purpose of fighting. When they got outside the prisoner took off his coat, and there, in the presence of three other Spanish sailors he made a rush at the deceased. The deceased at that time was not even in an attitude of defence, but the prisoner struck him with something in the throat. The man imme diately fell, bleeding. He was conveyed by the police to the Southern Hospital, but was dead be fore he arrived there. A wound was found in his throat, and there could be no doubt at all that the wound then inflicted by the hand of the prisoner caused the death of the man. For the defence it was urged that the offence did not amount to murder, but was manslaughter only. Not only had there been a previous quarrel, but the deceased, it appeared, had aggravated the prisoner and challenged him to go into the street and fight. His Lordship, in summing up the evidence, said the first question for thejury to consider was this— Was the death of the deceased man Francisco the: act of the prisoner, for if it was not he ought to l ja acquitted altogether ? The learned counsel for ' t he prisoner did not dispute that the prisoner did take the lifeof fo F r rtahnemcistcoo. consider Then extand most important question was, Whether thecrime amounted in law to murder, or whether it was merely manslaughter. That would be the most im portant question for them to form a judgment upon.. They would take the law from him. If two persons we nt out to fight delibe ra t e l y an d w i t h Premedi''a , as a razor or knif e , an d they d id " ti o n, each intendi ng t o use a dead l y ew v suchon, uen fight pursna nt to the premeditati on an d del ib erate intent, if on a killed the other, th ough they fought w h a t was co.11 1:11 f a i r l y as betwe en man and man , yet in law it was , murder.
