OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, The Times declares that now the case of Governor Eyre is sent up for history, it is not a matter for justices, lawyers, and juries, but for politicians, including in that name every educated person in this country for a good many ages to come. In fact, the trial has only begun, and will acver end. Governor Eyre will be always in court, for 'lot even the stern functionary who relieves the worst 2riminals from their penalties and pains will stay the ;nterminahle pleadings for and against him. In the )pinion of the Times ho is not to be envied even for his present and, as one sincerely hopes, final escape from his , egal persecutors. Two years in a healthy gaol, or the pay r. of a thousand pounds, are a trifle compared with a posi tion by the side of Nero, Colonel Kirk, Judge Jeffreys, Claverhouse, the Duke of Cumberland, and similar netorieties in books for the young and religious periodi- But this is the real burden of political life, and e7.ielly of power, in that autocratic form happily so rare under a constitutional Government. Woe to the man obliged to act on his own responsibility, perhaps on the advice, suggestion, and information of the unknown, the sheltered, the dishonest, or the incompetent ! Those in power feel most of all that power is not made for man. It is they that make history, and history reviews them as saucy children do the doings of their fathers. An insurrection suppressed with a Lalance of some five hundred lives to set against less than a score white victims, with a multitude of gro tesquely cruel incidents, absurd extravagances, and trials almost worse than the momentary acts of vengeance or alarm, will always occupy a prominent place in our annals. It will always be canvassed freely and passionately. Messrs. Mill, Buxton, and their friends ought to be content v.-ith this. The best judges of political offenders, however, are political men, and our statesmen at home have already acquitted, or at least absolved, Mr. Eyre. His real indemnity is not the Colonial Act of which Mr. Justice Blackburn does not appear to think much, but the thanks and compli meats of his employers at home. It is quite possible they have their own private opinions about his qualifications for office ; and it is possible they migtit hesitate to employ him again ; but we have very little doubt they feel also that, perhaps, they owe to him the safety of Jamaica, and the prevention of a hideous and unparalleled catastrophe. 2a!s. The Post wants to know what Grant will prove as President. He has taken particular care never to allow his political opinions to be known. He never makes rail lie speeches, and in private he invariably resists every attempt to draw him into the field of political discussion. " Whenever," said one of the chiefs of the Republican party, who some time since sought to obtain from the General some expression of opinion respecting the course pursued by the President, " whenever I talk politics to General Grant, he always talks horses." And by this constant habit of " talking horses" Grant has probably secured that unprecedented unanimity on the part both of Democrats and Republicans in nominat ing him for the Presidency. No one can say what he will turn out when he obtains the supreme power. He may be a second Johnson or a second Lincoln. His early associa tions were Democratic. Shortly after the beginning of the war he was violently " anti-abolitionist," and went se far as to declare to the troops under his command that if they were told that in the event of their being successful slavery would be abolished, they would be justified in laying down their arms and returning to their homes. The Daily .Are?rs commences a leader on the defence which has been set up for Murphy, with some remarks on Calcraf t and the character given to him by his pastor. It suggests that the rev. writer of this character has been hoaxed, and the whiteheaded old cordwainer whom he takes to be Calcraft, knows nothing more about public strangling than his minister, and has no idea that he has been taken for the common hangman. Quite by accident, this odd defence of a man whom nobody had attacked has-been immediately followed by a vindication offered on behalf of a very different public character. Mr. Murphy, the lecturer, has no other connection with Calcraft than that he is in a fair way of cutting out for him a good amount of work. Dr. Hugh M`Neile says that he knows nothing of Murphy, and will not answer for him ; but the Rev. S. Walker, rector of St. Mary-le-Port, Bristol, knows him, and in the columns of the Times deprecates hasty judgment against him. Mr. Walker, hov. - ever, seems to forget the scene at Dukin field, in which Murphy produced a revolver, telling the people he was a queer lad. All this is condoned—nay more, is extolled, for Mr. Walker is quite sure that he could not do Murphy's work so well as he does—because Murphy " not only desires to warn his brother Protes tants against the errors and designs of the Church of Rome, but to lead sinners to the Saviour." He is much more likely to lead well-intentioned, but weak and fo.na- Ccal people to crime and the gaol, perhaps to the gallows. It is truly shucking to find Murphy defended by men publicly appointed to teach the religion of Christ and of Paul. But for this there is a cause which we need not seek far to discover. Meanwhile, Murphy's acts speak for themselves. The Standard expresses a high opinion of the way in which the Boundary Commission did what they were appointed to do. They discharged with great ability and p(Tfect fairness - the duties entrusted to them by Parlia ment. Their instructions were to inerase the limits of all boroughs by including in them all districts which, belonging practically to the town, ought to be included in it for the purpose of parliamentary registration. No one denies that these instructions have been fully adhered to. But the changes resolved upon in principle by Par liament, and left to be carried out in detail by a com mission, because Parliament could not trust itself with such a work, have proved disagreeable to a number of short-sighted Radical politicians, who, in pre sence of the vast revolution just accomplished, are filled with anguish at the thought that a part of a great town should cease to exercise its improper influence in a county. The party might lose, and therefore the recommendations of the commissioners, which could only fairly be assailed on the ground of incompetency and un fairness, were objected to, and referred to 'a select com mittee, which has taken upon itself, after the smallest possible inquiry, upon the most insufficient information, and in direct disregard of the Act of Parliament, to recom mend that the conclusions of the commissioners should, in all important cases, be upset. Unfortunately, we cannot hope that the House will show itself more mindful of the public interest, and more careful of its own honour, than its committee. The Telegraph, judging from the various brochures which are published on the vexed topic of the Government acquisition of the telegraphs, thinks it would appear that some of the directors at least are determined to make a good fight for continued existence, even if the shareholders should remain perversely supine. We bear little as yet of the views and feelings of the shareholders, who are wisely waiting to see whether or not they can make a good thing out of the proposed transfer. But heir representatives in the board-room are not so reticent. The Electric and International Telegraph Company directors rush into print with a haste and fehemence to be paralleled by nothing short of the odium theologicum. A. pamphlet, professedly under their aus pices, was issued some weeks ago, and a second has since :appeared, the latter signed by no less a personage than the Hon. Robert Grimston, chairman. It is a notable production, slashing, passionate, one-sided, tremen dously vigorous in its language, conspicuously weak in its arguments. No mercy is shewn to oppo nents ; the Post Office authorities get it hot and strong. We look in vain, however, throughout the long tirade for any satisfactory rejoinder to the overwhelm ing arguments adduced in favour of the Government proposal. An interview is mentioned between the Chan cellor of the Exchequer and Mr. Grimston, in which the very outspoken chairman, without waiting to hear parti culars, denounced the plan as " pure and simple confisca tion." But it is absurd to use such language in reference to a plan which would not make the proprietors sell against their will, and which, in any dispute as to the value, would permit them to obtain the decision of an independent arbiter. Further, the pleas put forward by Hr. Grimston, if they prove 'anything, prove too much for his purpose. He defends the companies for what they have done within the last fifteen years in the way of extending ope rations and reducing rates. Well, all that must have involved either a loss or a profit. If a loss, whence have come those new profits of 14 or 15 per cent. which have been earned, and which the honourable chairman himself ber.,ted were "much safer than your Three per Cent. 'Consols, Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer?" If a profit, what is the value of all those denunciations of cheap and uniform rates, and extended facilities, as impracticable, 'and sure to result in loss, with which the pamphlets are stalled? Have the existing rates and accommodation pre• cis.,Ay reached the limit where profit is earned, and will a farther progress in the same direction not yield similar results ? What the companies have to do is to prove that, to a void less, reduction of tarifi must stop abort affits present p ):11t ; that the wide and elaborate organisation of the Post o.lice cannot overtake public wants much faster than the ex perimental etTort3 of a private company, which looks first to its own gains and limits its operations accordingly ; that the large amount annually disbursed in dividends is not ;equivalent to facilities retarded or rates unnecessarily high ; and, finally, that what has succeeded in Vio most prosperous and compact of the industrial States of the Continent, in the most enterprising of our ,•own trans-oceanic possessions, is in some mysterious way unsuited for this country. Until those points are affirmed, such matters as the wrongs of the post-office employes, or air accasional slip of the pen on the part of an official, are mere irrelevancies, which may give pungency to vitupera tion, but throw no light on the point at issue. One memorial from a chamber of commerce, representing the Juterests of the many , i s wort h any number of such pamphlets, echoing the prejudices of the few. THE HORSE SHOW. The Times gives the following brief and graphic account of the visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to the Horse Show at the Agricultural Hall :—" The Prince and Princess of Wales honoured the Horse Show with a visit yesterday, and a full hall welcomed them with many rounds of cheers. Their Royal Highnesses were accompanied by the Crown Prince of Denmark and Prince Christian, and attending on them were Lady Westmoreland, Lady Macclesfield, and Lady Suffield, Lord Hamilton, M.P., and Colonel Kingscote, M.P., The Royal party drove within the hall shortly before five o'clock ; they were received by Mr. Clayden, Mr. Shut tleworth, Mr. Leeds, Mr. Giblett, and Mr. Comfort, and were conducted to a private box overlooking the ring, where Mr. Sidney, the secretary, directed the entertainment during the hour and a half their Royal Highnesses stayed. First the prize horses were paraded, nmmencing with the harness pairs and the stallions ; and when the qualities of Rapid Roan and Fire-away Shales had been exhibited, the ring was given up to a remarkable trotter, named Telegraph, driven in a fragile carriage known as an American machine.' Next the park hacks and ladies' horses passed in review, and among them an old greycharger, named Napier, attracted every eye by the execution of a kind of goose-step before the Royal box. Then the hunters appeared, headed by Lady Derwent, the winner of the gold medal ; the fences were set up, and a scene of the greatest animation ensued. Some twenty horsemen and a quartette of horsewomen occupied the ring, and at times they were all in motion together. Heedless of danger, they flew round the enclosure in hot pursuit of one another ; at the same moment a lady would raise a cheer by a well•managed leap, and a groom a shout of laughter by an awkward tumble over his horse's head; flying hats were common even among the ladies, and every now and then a horse and his rider would fall crashing through a fence. But presently the whole party were grouped in a centre, while a wonderful little piebald pony, ridden by an equally wonderful little boy;frisked and curvetted round the ring with the spirit of a king's charger. Though less than twelve hands high, he answered to his rider's shrill heigho,' flew over the fence at a bound, and turned to prance before the Royal box, while his rider acknowledged the special commendation of the Princess. For the moment ' little Hawkes of _Brampton' was the hero of the day. The Royal party left the hall at . • a quarter-past six." LAW AND POLICE. CuAncus OF MISCONDUCT BY A CORONEII.—In the Lord Chalicelior's Court charges brought by Sir Chas. Anderson, Bart., and others against Mr. Charles Henry Holgate, coroner of the Parts of Lindsey, in Lincolnshire, have been heard. It seems that the justices were so dissatisfied with the conduct of the gentleman in question, that a committee was appointed to report as to the accuracy of some rumours that were heard. The committee reported to the effect that Mr. Holgate's conduct when applied to for the purpose of or when holding an inquest had been indecent and improper, that he had excluded medical wit nesses on certain occasions, and that he bad behaved improperly with regard to pecuniary transactions, viz., in taking receipts from witnesses and neglecting to pay them, &c. In one of the affidavits the deponent stated that the coroner was accustomed to smoke a short pipe at inquests, and hail refused to hold an inquiry as to the death of an old woman, aged 80, when applied to by the police, and on that particular occasion he made use of the words, " It is time the old devil was dead, unless she thought she was going to live for ever." In the affidavit filed by Mr. Holgate he denied gene rally most of the accusations, but admitted smoking a short pipe at inquests. After hearing the arguments the Lord Chancellor delivered a long and lucid judgment, concluding with saying that he had no alternative but to direct that a writ of de coranatore exonerando should be is. ued. PAroRTANT TO SHAREHOLDERS. — In the same court the Lord Chancellor decided the case of Kent v. the Freehold Land and Lrickmaking Company. The plaintiff,Mr. Kent, applied for 100 shares in the company, which had been established very shortly before, on the 7th of November, 18C5, and paid a deposit. They Were allotted to him on the 16th of November, and he received the certificate for them on the 3rd of January, 1866. In February and in May in that year calls were made of £1 a share, and paid by him. On the 2nd of April he received a quarter's dividend of £6 14s. 11d. A second quarter's dividend became due on the 16th of May, but was never paid. On the 13th of August he received notice of a third call, but having in the meantime, as he alleged, discovered grow misrepresentations in the prospectus, on the faith of which he had applied for his shares, he did not pay it ; and on the Bth of October, an action having been com menced against him, he filed a bill against the company, the directors, and the promoter, to have the register of the company rectified by removing his name. lle charged, among other things, that the prospectus con tained fraudulent misrepresentations as to the price at which the property which the company was to work had been sold, the proportion of capital subscribed by the directors, and the number of shares taken by the vendor of the property. The Lord Chancellor said that he could not distinguish the case from that decided by the House of Lords, in re Overend, Gurney, and Co., and the bill would therefore he dismissed. JUDGES AND THEIR PRIVILEGES.—In the Court of Ex chequer, the important question of " Can a judge be sued for slander uttered in his judicial capacity ?" was decided. Mr. Scott, an accountant and scrivener, brought an action in which he claimed £2,000 damages against Mr. J. S tansfeld, the well-known county court judge of one of the districts of Yorkshire. The words were made use of when a judg ment was delivered, and were these : " You are a harpy, preying on the vitals of the poor." The defendant relied on the 15th and 16th Vic., cap. 54, sec. 6, and 9th and 10th Vic., cap. 95, sec. 138 ; but the plaintiff, in his replication thereto, set forth that the words were made use of maliciously and with• out cause. The Lord Chief Baron, in his judgment, said that the court were of opinion that no action could be maintained against a county court judge for language spoken by him in the hearing of a case, even if it were spoken as alleged in the replication. THE CHARGES AGAINST A CHURCH CLERGYMAN.— The case of Moss v. the Rev. Joshua Charles Edwards, rector of Ingoldswell, Lincolnshire, has been proceeded with, and is now complete, with 01: e ception of the judgment. The defendant, who is charged with immoral conduct with two young women, conductbd his own case, and called the females in question, who denied that anything imprA , '" had occurred. TIIE CIIARGE AGAINST A RAILWAY SEEM NRY.—At the Mansion House, Edward Bannister Ca ow was charged on remand with forging six cheques. It will be remembered that the prisoner was secretary to the Ellam Valley Railway Company, and absconded, and the next time lie was heard of was in \Vhitecross-street prison. After he had been absent a short time it was discovered that six cheques were missing from the cheque-book. Evidence was given that the accused, on the same day that two of the cheques were drawn, had changed some banknotes for a large amount for some of less value. The prisoner was again remanded. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST POLICEMEN.-At the Gates head Police-court, Police-constable Wilson, stationed at Ryton, and Police-constable Young, stationed at Craw crook, were charged with a very serious offence. A pit man was sent to prison for two months for stabbing Wilson ; but their superintendent has since discovered that they committed perjury, and has made a charge against them. The case was adjourned for a week. EMBEZZLMIENT.-At the Portsmouth Borough Police court, on Wednesday, Mr. Henry Hollingsworth, the late secretary to the Southsea Pier Company, was committed for trial on a charge of embezzlement. Bail (himself in £5OO and two sureties of £250 each) was accepted. OUTBREAK OF A NEW CATTLE PLAGUE.—A very subtle and terribly fatal disease is now raging among the cattle in some portions of Illinois. Over one hundred head have fallen victims to it within the past few days. It usually kills in a few hours. No premonitory warnings are given, and although all the skill in the possession of ordinary practitioners has been brought to bear upon it, it yields to no remedy or treatment, and is fatal in every instance. Its name and nature have not yet been de termined. BULLION. —The computed real value of the regis _ tered imports of gold and silver bullion and specie into the United Kingdom from various countries during 1867 was £23,821,047. Of this sum £61,446 came from Russia, £216,682 from the Manse Towns, £37,143 frOm Holland, £23,338 from Belgium, £1,338,462 from France, £341.,244 from Portugal, Azores, and Madeira, £26,751 from Spain and Canaries, £89,078 from Gibraltar, £54,312fr0m Malta, £52,328 from Turkey, £106,388 from Egypt, £149,430 from the W est Coast of Africa, £22,425 from British possessions in Africa, £205,328 from British India, £5,801,720 from Australia, £2,335 from British Columbia, £148,718 from the British North American Provinces, £7,840,862 from Mexico, South. America (except Brazil), and West Indies, £688,141 from Brazil, £6,408,006 from the United States, and £66,005 from other countries. By a comparison of imports during the past nine years, it appears that those of gold reached their maximum in 1866 and their minimum in 1861, and that the largest imports of silver occurred in 1859, and the smallest in 1861. THE SUN, LOIND N THURSDAY EVOING, JUNE 4, 1863, ARCHBISHOP MANNING Al BRADFORD. Archbishop Manning assisted at the opening of a large Catholic school at Bradford on Friday. The building is situated in Grafton-street, Manchester road, where there are a vast number of Catholics, and, until a chapel is built upon the same site, will be used for purposes of worship. It is a substan tial erection of stone, and is 100 feet in length by 32 feet in width. There are two stories, and it is the second one that is to be used as the chapel. The school has cost about £2,000. A debt of about £9OO rests upon the building ; but it is due to the congregation of St. Mary's chapel, who have promoted the work, to state that, although they are for the most part composed of the labouring classes, they have been able, in the course of two years and a half, to pay for the site, which is an extensive one, care having been taken that it should be large enough to afford room for a house far the resident priest as well as for the school and con templated chapel. In addition they have con tributed the amount which has been obtained for the erection of the school, and they are convinced that their efforts in this direction have not been made too soon, from the fact that already there are 250 children under tuition in the new building. The ceremony of opening was exceedingly im pressive. In the morning High Mass was sung by Canon Browne, of St. Anne's, Leeds, the Rev. W. B. Scrutor acting as deacon, and the Rev. T. Loughran as sub-deacon. The Archbishop of `Westminster and the Bishop of Beverley assisted pontifically. The attendants at the throne of his Grace were the Rev. J. Illingworth and the Rev. A. Riddell, and Canon Motler (St. Mary's, Brad ford), whilst at the throne of the Bishop the at tendants were Canon Walshaw (Sheffield), and the Rev. Philip Vavasour. A large number of clergy occupied seats in the sanctuary. The music selected was from Righini's Grand Imperial Mass, and was caresully sung under the leadership of Mr. Stephen Scholey, the Bradford " Society of Classical Har monists " taking the instrumental parts. After the first Gospel, the Archbishop preached from the words in the first chapter of the Acts—" Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you ; and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost parts of the earth." Having described the circumstances under which this promise was made, he said there was a peculiar fit ness in such thoughts on such a day as that. alley were met together to open one more of those lowly sanctuaries of the holy Catholic Church in England, in the midst of a country in which the glories of the holy Catholic Church of other days stood, ruined indeed, but in majesty and splendour speaking the vastness and power and grandeur of the times that were gone by. The Catholic Church of to-day did not clothe itself in the splendour and the symmetry and the magnitude of days that were past. It as sembled in guest chambers—in upper rooms such as that. Its beginnings were in humility, and, in the eyes of men, iu weakness, but in the sight of God in power—in the same power which our Lord pro mised to bis Apostles when he was parted from them—in that power which descended upon them on the day of Pentecost. And there was another reason why such thoughts were fitting to them. They were ke,eping the octave of the great Apostle of England, Saint Augustine. Some twelve hun dred and more years ago, when England had once again been flooded with Paganism—when the light of faith which once burned brightly was ex tinguished by the inundation of idolatry and un belief—from the side of the Pontiff, the Vicar of Jesus Christ, St. Gregory, the great in name and great in deeds, Saint Augustine came, the Evange list and the Apostle of Saxon England. The light which he kindled had never been extinguished From that hour to this the light of the faith of Jesus Christ had burned in every land, and its radiance had spread from sea to sea. The witness of the Apostles had been here. For a thousand long - years in its brightness and its power, and afterwards in darkness, the light shone—pent up it might be, in secret places, under the earth, in the mountain side, in the lowly dwellings of the city, its splendour veiled, and its majesty overcast, but. burning still bright and unchangeable as in the beginning. Why was it that for more than twelve hundred years the Catholic Church and the Catholic faith in England, from St. Augustine until now, had in the midst of persecution stood steadfast, immutable, unimperish- able—the same always—never varying in jot or in tittle? Why was it that round about that unity of the Church and of the faith there were shifting, varying, fleeting, dissolving, and vanishing forms of Christian opinion and ofreligious thought ? It all pointed to one truth—that there was a divine rule of faith ; that that divine rule of faith was vital to the perpetuity of truth ; that those who adhered to it were inevitably united to the truth, whilst those who departed from it inevitably and by a necessary law lost hold of that truth and forfeited the light of faith. Let him, therefore, set clearly before them what that rule of faith was on which the Catholic Church and her children rested ; and also what was that rule of faith, if he might so speak, which later days had tried to sub stitute in its stead, and in trying to substitute which bad failed to retain the faith. In one word the rule of faith in the Catholic Church was the Word of God. That Word of God was in part written and in part revealed. That which was unwritten was before that which was written, and was the in terpretation of that which was written afterwards. The Catholic Church retained the whole of that revelation of God, whether written or unwritten, with a jealousy and a zeal for truth which had never changed. More than this, it had retained it not only by a human jealousy and a human zeal for the truth of God, but by Divine assistanc3 and guidance it had, secured the traditions and in heritance of truth as they were from the beginning and would be to the end. On the other hand, those who had rejected this rule of faith and who believed that the written Word of God, or Holy Scriptures, was the full, complete, and only rule of faith, had entered upon a path so devious, so wandering, and so dark,—and had placed their feet upon an incline so slippery and so perilous—that three hundred years had sufficed to show the hn possibility of such a rule. In the first place, the Apostles, illuminated by the Holy Ghost, were sent into the world to teach the revelation of Jesus Christ, and wherever they went that truth, harmo nious in all its parts, perfectly definite and certain, excluding all possibility of error, clear and intelli gible in every detail, was preached by them to the world. The nations of the world became disciples, and as they believed they were baptized ; they learned what they called a creed—the summary of truth which constituted the necessary faith of a Christian man. This, then, was the first founda tion of their faith, and the faith which was then declared to the world was incorporated, registered, and recorded, and made permanent before as yet so much as a Gospel or epistle was written. What was the Church itself but that one universal and indivisible body, the in-dwelling of the holy Spirit, of which the Saviour spoke when he said, "There is one body and one spirit," &c. That one visible Church spread throughout the world in fulfilment of our Lord's promise, given at the time of llis ascension. When the Apostles went to their rest their witness was perpetuated by the remanent testimony of the Church that they had founded. More than this, the Sacraments which the Church administered were more or less pregnant with revealed truths ; some of th. in contained many doctrines. For example, baptism taught original sin ; for why else should infants be baptised. It likewise taught them regeneration by the holy Ghost. Again, the sacrament of the altar taught them the incarnation of God. In the Blessed Sacrament the Body and Blood of Christ were present, and, therefore, the Godhead and manhood in one person full and perfect. In the sacrament of penance they were shown the power of absolving sin, the power of the Holy Ghost in absolution ; and in the sacrament of order the authority and organisation of the whole Church were set forth. And so with all their sacraments : they contained a multitude of truths. Whereso ever the Apostles went they administered these sacraments from the beginning ; and, therefore, the trutlis - of,thefaith were incorporated:and7em• , bodied in the Church. The same thing was shown in the worship of the Church—in the adoration that they paid to the ever-Blessed Trinity in all that they did. In this day many people believed that the New Testament was a book which came full and complete, and that from it men derived every benefit. The religion of Jesus Christ was never derived from the Scriptures of the New Tes tament. It was not the source or fountain from which that religion Rowed. The religion of Jesus Christ was in existence before the New Testament. It was preached in all the world, believed in all the world, incorporated, embodied, and manifested in all the world, before as yet a letter of these Scrip tural books was written. The Spirit of God preached orally in the beginning ; and it wrote afterwards, and that which was written was the record and the recognition of that which had been preached, but no new article of faith was added. When it was written it was addressed to those who had received the faith, for the purpose of remind ing them of that which they had received already. For ten years there was no Gospel ; for twenty years there were but two ; for more years there were but three ; and for sixty years the last had not been written. The Scriptures were written some twenty years, perhaps, after our Lord's ascension, and were written to the Church, per haps in Greece or in Rome, or to an individual. They were local mainly—personal—and they re cognised and pointed out that original faith already delivered and already believed. Now the Catholic Church, as its rule of faith, rested upon the Word of God in all its amplitude, not only upon that which was written, but upon that which was re vealed beforehand. The whole broad bases of Christendom, from the day of Pentecost, was the foundation of the Catholic Church, and the Scrip tures that were written afterwards were interpreted in the light of that illumination, and not only in that light, but by the facts of the Church itself. For instance, from the time of Arius down till now there had been disputations as to the doctrine of the Holy Trinity—as to whether or not the New Testament proved that in one Godhead were three persons. Those who separated the book from the illumination of the universal Church read its texts in the twilight and mistook the meaning of its utterances ; but those who opened the page of the book in the light of the day of Pentecost knew this, that before the book was written every Christian soul was baptised in the name of the Holy Trinity ; and belief in the Holy Trinity was incorporated in the worship of the universal Church. Again, in this day there were controver sies, as there had been for three hundred years, as to whether or not the priests of the Church of God had the power of sacrifice, as to whether or not there were bishops over them, as to whether or not the Church was a unity which could not be divided—as to whether the law of unity was a divine law and a divine obligation. All those who took their texts apart from this . unwritten tradi tion, and this illumination of which he had been speaking, mistook and could not put together those scattered truths of that Church which to those who knew the original were perfectly familiar. Those who knew that before as yet that book was written there was one body in all the world, mani fested by a perfect unity—a unity so indissoluble that separation from it was schism, and schism mortal sin—knew that in that body there were everywhere grades of order, priests ministering at the altar, and above them the order of the apostles, with power over the mystical body, with power to absolve, to guide, to govern, to consecrate the Blessed Sacrament at the altar, and to ordain others to do the same. This was a fact of Christian history, and this fact was an interpretation of Holy Scripture. The Church was not only the interpreter of that book, but was the interpreta tion of it itself. The faith in all its fulness was committed to the custody of the Apostles and their successors. Inspired with the Holy Ghost, the Apostles afterwards wrote the Scriptures and com mitted them to the custody of the one Catholic Church, which preserved them, and ha I preserved them from the beginning—both the faith which came first and the Scriptures which came aLer - wards. The testimony of the one Catholic Church, considered as a human and historical witness, gave the most luminous and certain testimony of the truth taught in the beginning, and in a divine sense, it was the infallible, unerring witness of God himself. In conclusion, his Grace denied that the Roman Catholic Church had introduced new doctrines into the worship of God, but submitted that it retained the faith in its purity and accord ing to its primitive and original doctrines, and that there did not exist in the world any Church so scriptural as the Holy Catholic and Roman Church. After the High Mass, the clergy and many of the congregation sat down to luncheon in the Victor is Hotel. The Archbishop was in the chair, and in proposing the first toast—the health of Pope Pius IX.—reminded his hearers that his Holiness had just entered on his 77th year. The l'ope's life had been prolonged in a manner beyond all their expectations. His Pontificate of now more than twenty years had been full of events, which were the most marked in history. He had more than once quoted some words that had been used by his Holiness when, three or four years ago, he was first officially informed that the French army would be withdrawn from Rome after a period of two years. His answer was—" A great deal of water will run down the Tiber to the sea before two years are over." That majesty and confidence which his Holiness had exhibited had been more than justified by the events. (Cheers.) The waves of revolution raging against the walls of Rome had been cast back ley no other than a divine hand. (Cheers.) He had been much ridiculed by the public newspapers for declaring that the Temporal Power of the Pope would not fail ; but he would tell them on what his confidence was founded. It had b3en prophesied that when once the French bayonets were withdrawn the Temporal Power of the Pope would fall. He had affirmed that it was not the French bayonets that sustained the Tem poral Power, and he had been asked in return — Why, then, did the foreign bayonets rem tin at Rome ? Was it not by the will of the French Emperor ? He had answered that may be, but the French Emperor could not withdraw them, and that because the French nation would not permit ir. (Cheers.) And why was it that the French nation would not permit it ? Because the French nation was a Catholic nation, and its will was sup ported by the unanimous will of Catholic Christen dom. (Cheers.) It had appeared to him that that will had another source and support than in any human agency, and he had felt, therefore, no difficulty in making the counter prophecy, which he had done, to the bold prediction of those who told them that the Temporal Power of the Pope was to fall. Last November they had a very fair sample of what the strength of that Temporal Power was as against the power of revolution. The present age had been said very truly to be an age of revolution. Beginning with the Revolution iu France in 1789, the world had been inundated, wave upon wave, with a succession of revolutions ; but this tide of revolution had never reached its highest till it came to the walls of Rome. It reached the great breakwater, and it had been cast back—(cheers) e —and he thought the Pontificate of Pius IX. had been signally—in the eyes even of the world—that barrier which had turned back the inundation of revolution from the civil order of Europe. (Cheers.) The life of the Holy Father had been prolonged beyond the ordinary measures of men ; but it appeared to him that it had not yet reached its term, for his -Pontificate had not yet cempleted its work. He believed that the General Council which Pius IX. was about to de clare would mark an epoch in a reaction against the anti-Christian revolution in Europe. (The toast :,was drunk with unbounded enthusiasm.) The Archb'shop afterwards proposed " The Queen and the royal family." Her Majesty, he remarked, ascended the throne at a perilous time in our his tory, but lie believed it might be said that her reign hal restored the sentiment of personal and affectionate loyalty amongst her subjects. (Cheers.) The period when England legislated for itself was over ; its days of narrow and restricted laws were gone. When England united itself with Scotland it lost its identity. and became Great Britain, and when Great Britain united itself with Ireland it ascended to a higher unity. (Cheers.) The statutes of the constitution were like the raiment of a child. What was fitted for its younger days was unfit for these ; —the stature, and the limbs, and the bulk of Great Britain and Ireland de manded another clothing. (Loud cheers.) There were days when restricted laws in matters of re ligion were possible—he would not say whether they were ever just. The days had come when these laws were not only unjust, but were impos - sible. (Cheers.) The reign of Queen Victoria would, he believed, be written in history with this note attached to it—which would be its glory— that its glory was the period of the perfect religious equality of all her subjects. (Cheers.) He ap plied this most emphatically to Ireland, because he felt that England had little to ask for, and in the name of justice she demanded it. (Loud cheers.) Canon Maier proposed the health of the Chair man, and the Archbishop, in reply, took occasion to remark that all over Britain so much kindness and amity was now being extended towards Catho lics as to make it their bounden duty to exercise the greatest degree of charity of which they were capable. He proposed the health of the Bishop of the Diocese, and afterwards that of Canon Motler. Canon Motler, in the course of his acknowledgment, made the announcement that whereas little more than forty years ago there were not above six or seven Catholics in Bradford, there were now two churches, having each congre gations numbering some two thousand souls. Those churches were St. Mary's and St. Patrick's, and their success was an earnest of what was in tended to be done at St. Joseph's. (Cheers.) The company shortly afterwards broke up. THE REPUPLICAN SENATORS WHO ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE VOTED AGAINST TILE IMPEACHMENT CHARGES. (From the Anglo-American Tims.) The way in which the extreme Radicals have treated the Republican Senators who announced their intention of voting against the Impeachment Charges will not tend to the elevation of the ex treme section in the opinion of the people. Trum bull was paid $5,000 for arguing the constitution ality of the Reconstruction Laws in the M'Ardle case before the Supreme Court, so says a corre spondent of the New York Tribune ; adding, that Republicans should ask to-night (May 11) what the guerdon is for defending the President in the Impeachment Trial. The Illinois Delegation in Congress held that night an informal meeting, and concluded that Mr. Trumbull, the prince of be trayers, had more than all else helped to defeat Im peachment, and that were his term to expire next March instead of five years hence, he would take a different view. William Pitt Fessenden was de feated in his attempt to secure the Presidency of the, Senate when Andrew- John - eon succeeded the mur dered Lincoln, and he is not therefore supposed to be warm in his friendship towards Mr. Wade, the successful candidate. The correspondent declares Fessenden gave his opinion to Andrew Johnson on Impeachment before he gave it to the Senate, and A. J. handed it over to the correspondent of a New York Democratic journal, in whose co lumns it might be found that morning. A prominent member from Illinois told the corres pondent he believed the State would buy the pistol with which Senator Lane, of Kansas, shot himself, and give it to Trumbull upon his first appearance there. Mr. Fessenden defends himself with great skill. He argues out the rights of Mr. Johnson under the Tenure-of-Offide Act, and the status of the President, showing that he is not merely acting President, that he did not appoint Mr. Stanton, and that even under the provisions of the Civil Tenure Act he held the authority to remove that Secretary. He deals briefly with the charges of conspiracy and abuse of Congress, and after alluding to the imperative duty of each Senator to vote conscientiously, he thus proceeds :—" In the words of Lord Eldon upon the trial of the Queen, I take no notice of what is passing out of doors, because I am supposed constitutionally nct to be acquainted with it.' And again, it is the duty of those on whom a ju licial task is imposed to meet reproach and not court popularity.' The people have not heard the evidence as we have heard it. The re sponsibility is not upon dim, but upon ns. They have not taken an oath to do impartial justice according to the Constitution and the laws. I have taken that oath. • I cannot render judgment upon their conviction, nor can they transfer to themselves my punishment if I violate my oath. I should consider myself undeserving the confidence that the just and intelligent people imposed upon me in this great responsibility, and unworthy a place among ho nourable men, if for any fear of public repro bation, and for the sake of securing public favour, I should disregard the conviction of my judgment and conscience. The consequences which may follow, either from conviction or acquittal, are not for me with my convictions to consider. The future is in the hands of Him who made and governed the universe, and the fear that He will not govern it wisely and well would not excuse me for a violation of his law." Senator Grimes has been bullied into a para lytic stroke, and is very ill indeed. It was thought that he would not be able to vote, and it w as proposed that Senators Howard, who is also ill, an d Wade should pair against him, two to one being she requisite proportion. During the 13th Mr. Grimes was labouring under great excitement. He expressed his surprise, having been read out of the party by the Chronicle, that any Republican should speak to him, and commented bitterly upon the course the friends of Impeachment had taken, and he defied the sentiment of his State (Iowa). But those who know him best declare that he has keenly felt the loss of old friends. " Old Grimes is dead, that bad old man," is now the parody of the song. This is the style of the New York Tribune in reference to these gentlemen :—" Everyone of the re creant lackeys who now knuckle and cringe before the President's superior courage knew when they passed the Tenure-of-Office Bill over the President's veto exactly all that they now know of the Presdent's argu ments except his pluck. They thought then that the law was constitutional. The votes of Grimes, Fessenden, Henderson, Trumbull, and the rest are so recorded at least four times. Trumbull aspired to be the champion of this law in its constitutional aspects. We do not know what the legal definition of such a course would be, but to us it looks like what the lawyers would define a perjury." Sena tor Henderson has had to withstand a fright ful pressure. The Representatives of Missouri, urged by the citizens, and backed by his colleague, Senator Drake, have applied the screw with such effect, that at one time Mr. Henderson, tussling to Mr. Pile, of St. Louis, said, " What you want is the conviction of the President, I suppose, and if you can obtain it without my resignation it will satisfy you. I will examine the eleventh Ar ticle again, and if I cannot vote for it I will resign." The Senator's interview with the Mis souri members of Congress was published, and this annoyed him so much that in Washington they said he intended to violate his compact. A telegraphic correspondence passed on Wednesday, the 13th, between the Senator and his St. Louis constituents, which we give in full, as it helps to explain the vote which we now know to have been finally cast against the charges :—" St. Louis, May 13.—T0 Hon. J. B. Headers on.—There is intense excitement here. A meeting is called for to-mor row night. Can your friends hope that you will vote for the eleventh Article? If so, all will be well.—E. W. Fox." " Washington, D.C., May 13. —To E. 11. Fox, St. Louis, Mo.—Say to my friends that I am sworn to do impartial justice, according to the law and the evidence, and I will try to do it like an honest man.—J. B. HENDERSON." To de clare his position more fully, Mr. Henderson, on Wednesday, sent the following letter to the Mis souri delegation that called on him a few days ago to request him to withhold his vote, if he intended to cast it for the acquittal of the President : " Washington, May 13, 18G8.—Gentlemen,—On yesterday morning, being assured by you that my position on the Impeachment question was not only antagonistic to the unanimous voice of the Union party of our State, but that it would be likely to produce civil war and Woodshed therein if it should result. in the acquittal of the President, I was understood to say, under the cir cumstances, that rather than have such results fol low, I would tender my resignation as Senator, and let some other person as my successor execute what you suppose to be the voice of the party that sent me here, and which has so generously sustained me since I came. Again, last evening, I stated to you that I was willing to accept your views as truly re presenting and reflecting the wishes of our party, and that I thought it my duty to resign if I found it impossible, on a full examination of the case, to carry out that will on some one of the Articles of Impeachment. I agreed to let you know my con clusions on the subject to-day, in order that you might consult further, if you thought proper, and advise with the governor in regard to my successor. Since that time I have seriously reflected over the whole matter, and have come to the conclu sion that, having been sworn to try this case on the principles of impartial justice, and to render a verdict according to the law and the evidence, I cannot shrink or divide that responsibility with others. It is for the House to find Articles of Impeachment; It is for the Senate to try them. If I resign before the vote, it strikes me I have come short of the obligations of my oath, and as you are pleased to place this matter on purely political grounds, you will permit me to say that my resig nation can be of no possible service to you in that respect. A proper sense of delicacy would prevent my successor from voting, he not having heard the case, and you are aware that voting in the negative and declining to vote will be practically the same. Should he forego delicacy and even secure convic tion by his vote, the manner of securing it will de feat every conceivable advantage to be derived. I . have, therefore, resolved to stand by the obligations of my oath, honestly discharge my duty, as it is given me to know it ; and appealing to Heaven for the rectitude of 'my intentions, I am determined to follow the dictates of my conscience, and trust to a generous and upright people for the vindication of my conduct.--Your friend, JOHN B. HENDERSON." These are the four outspoken Republican Senators who announcel their intention of voting against the charges. Trumbull's term expires in 1873 ; Fessenden's in 1871 ; Grimes's in 1871, and Hen derson's in 1869. The other Republican Senators supposed to be committed to a vote against the charges are Senator Jos. S. Fowler, of Tennessee i whose term expires in 1781, and Van Winkle, of West Virginia, whose term ends in 1869. His col league, Wartnian I. Willey, whose term expires in 1871, would, it is thought, vote against the second Article, and on the 11th Article Frelinghuyseu, whose term ends in 1869, and Edmund G. Ross, of Kansas, whose term ends in 1871, would, it was conjectured, go with the Democrats. But Fowler was known at Washington to be opposed to Im peachment as a whole. All these Senators are com pared with Burr, Arnold, au .1 Davis, and " trai tor" is a mild word for some of the stump speak 3r3 and violent papers to use. Indeed we fear that most disgraceful means have been taken to terrify Senators into throwing aside all considerations which militate against party dictation, even to the threat of assassination. The degree of pressure in a more legitimate way may be judged by the following despatch sent broadcast over the country, signed as it is by General Schenck, of Ohio, chairman of the Republican Congressional Committee: — Washington, D.C., May 12, 18G8. Great danger to the peace of the country and the Re publican cause if Impeachment fails. Sand to your Sena tors before Saturday, public opinion by resolution, letters, and delegations. ROBERT C. SCHENCK, Chairman. These Senators, according to the Managers, are in imagination either suspended on a " gibbet of ever lasting obloquy," or making their way home " on a long and dark track of infamy." THE FREE-7 RARE HO VEMENT IIV AMERICA. Now that Impeachment is dead and all but burie 1, and Reconstruction in a fair way to be ac complished, the great question arising into promi nence in the United States is Protection versus Free Trade. Hitherto the subject has lain outside the two parties, but it is of sufficient magnitude in itself to divide the nation, and the rallying cries are even now beginning to be heard around the stan dards of Free Trade and Protection. On the 12th May a meeting was held in New York to advocate the principle of taxation for revenue only, under the presidency of Dr. Francis Lieber: Dr. Leavitt, Dr. J. P. Thompson, General J. S. Schultz, William B. Scott, Edward Atkinson, Amasa Walker, Prof. A. L. Perry, and others spoke. Mr. Atkinson is connected with the cotton manufacturing interest, and his speech was supposed to indicate the opinion of New England, and from these circumstances it derived a peculiar interest. He was very severe upon the movement to increase the present exces sive revenue duties, and the drift of his remarks may be gathered from the following propositions with which his address closed :—" Ist. We should de feat any attempt to raise the rates of duty. 21. We should reform our currency anti take positive measures toward specie payment, for I do not be lieve it is safe or practicable to attempt any per manent settlement of the tariff until we are on a specie basis. 3d. We should first adjust the tariff upon moderate rates upon many articles. In fix ing those rates we should adjust them to the point at which they will yield the most revenue. 4th. We should then follow the example of England by constantly enlarging the free list, as circumstances will allow, until we come to a simple and effective system of taxation somewhat similar to that of England, but with such variations as our dif ferent circumstances and conditions require." The Free-traders are divided into two schools ; the one advocating an immediate change in the Cus toms' laws of the nation ; the other, a progressive change ; but both were fully represented at this meeting, and thoroughly harmonized to defeat the endeavours of the ultra-Protectionists to increase the whole line of duties, and to secure the appoint ment of a Secretary to the Treasury who favours unlimited expansion. Among the resolutions passed the most significant are the following:—" Resolved, That extravagant duties injure manufactures by inducing home competition ; that any industry is best established by regular and natural methods. Resolved, That in the revision of the tariff, now imperatively demanded, regard should be bad only to the necessity of the Government for revenue, and that in such revision all legislation intended to foster special interests should be avoided. Resolved, That a return to specie payments is most important, both to commerce and manufactures." The change of sentiment in New England on Protection was even more strikingly indicated, strangely enough, in a debate in Congress on the 7th May, when the resolution was brought forward instructing the President to send war-vessels to the St. Lawrence to protect the interests of American fishermen. Mr. Pike, Republican of Maine, moved the resolution, and in reply to the remarks which followed described the decay of American shipping, attributing it to the high tariff on all materials entering into ship-building, and to high taxes generally. He complained that Congress had removed the taxation from rich manu facturers and had failed to relieve the humbler in terests of the country. Mr. Myers (Republican), from Philadelphia, interrupting him, Mr. Pike de clined to yield, saying he was familiar from his boy hood with the argument the gentleman desir3d to make ; he had used that tariff argument himself ever since he had learned to t ilk in public. He had been a " Protectionist" in his day, and had tried to persuade the people that if the rich were protected the rich would protect the poor, and that if the rich manufacturers were protected commu nities of poor men would grow up around the manu facturers, who would receive the dribble of protectio❑ that filtered through their rich employers. He was getting somewhat over that notion—(laughter)-- was getting cured of that idea. 11 had come to think there ought to be a reform in the revenue laws, and, instead of a higher tariff, there ought to be a reasonable- tariff founded on reasonable principles. The decay of American shipping was caused by the tariff. It cost two dollars in an American port to build a vessel, where it cost one dollar in an English port. It cost 100,000 dollars to set a thousand-ton ship afloat in New York, and but 50,000 dollars in Liverpool, for which the high rates of duties was doubtless the reason. Mr. Miller (Republican), of Pennsylvania, inquired whether Mr. Pike was in favour of free trade in building vessels. Mr. Pike replied that he had stated his proposition clearly. We must have the articles that go into ships free of duty, or we cannot build ships. If it be an object to have ships in this country, you must allow shipbuilders to have their materials free. Mr. Eldridge (Demo crat), of Wisconsin, said he understood Mr. Pike, the gentleman from Maine, to be talking very much like a Western man, and to be expresing himself in favour of free trade ; but he wished to inquire whether, if free trade were good fur the people of New England in building ships, it was pot also good for the labouring masses of the West in regard to the articles on which they lived and with which they were clothed. Mr. Pike declined to go into a general tariff discussion. Mr. Kelly (Republican), of Philadelphia, asked whether history did not prove that every nation, from Phoenicia and the Hanseatic League to England in her decadence, which had risen to commercial prosperity and depended on trade rather than on the development of land and material resources, had not marched to decline from the day of the establishment of commer cial ascendancy. Mr. Pike said that nations rise and fall, and there were various reasons for their fall ; but his only comment was that the United States in the meridian of her power was yielding control of the sea. Mr. Myers said that since the inland revenue taxes on manufactures . had been taken off one manufacturing firm in Philadelphia had increased its working force by 200 persons. He was in favour of imposing taxes where taxes should be impOsed, and of removing them where they should be removed. Mr. Pile (Republican), of Missouri, said that he did not understand Mr. Pike to be in favour of free trade, but only that he had changed his opinion as to the propriety of a very high protective tariff, which was generally entertained by New England some years ago. In welcoming Mr. Pike to the Western plat form on the tariff question, he did not wish to be understood as endorsing the idea advanced by Mr. Eldridge that the West is in favour of free trade. So far as he understood it, the West was in favour of reasonable protection to the manufacturing in terests—a revenue tariff, and not a high protective tariff. These are the straws which show the direc tion of the tide. The Hon. Ben. Wade was defeated in Cut nomination for the Vice-Presidency, and we believe his succession in case of Andrew Johnson's deposition had no small effect on the Impeachment verdict, as he was known strongly to favour the ultra-Protectionists, whose grand parade of prohi bition duties on the advent of their acting Presi dent at once alarmed the numberless citizens who think the tariff . already too high. The coming battle is the Battle of Free Trade. PROPOSED 31 SSAC 11 USE TTS MUSEUM Professor Agassiz offers Massachusetts the oppor tunity of establishing a museum, which, he says, will place science in America fifty years in advance of the Old World. He addressed the Legislature on the occasion of their visit to his Museum of Comparative Zoology at Cambridge, near Boston, setting forth the details of his plan, on which no museum has yet been founded, and for which, though an effort is being made to remodel the British Museum on a similar scheme borrowed from one of his reports to the Legislature—neither in America nor in Europe can the material be com manded by any single institution. His own collection is immense, and has within late years been vastly increased principally by his Brazilian tour. Various specithens are boxed up, so placed as to be impossible to inspect for lack of room. These are his words— "lf we can obtain the means to complete this wing of the main building, it is my purpose to have a room imme diately connected with the main entrance, which shall present a synoptic arrangement of the contents of the museum—a condensed representation of all the leading groups of the animal kingdom in their natural relations, perfectly legible to the intelligent observer. Ono side of this room shall be devoted to the illustration of the class of mammalia to which we ourselves belong. By the side of the complete animal shall be its skeleton, to explain its na tural s..ructure ; its fossil representative, to tell something of its history tu the past ages ; its embryo, to illustrate the story of its growth. Next shall come the birds, illustrated in the same ways, and in such juxtaposition to the preceding groups as shall explain their natural r. la lions. Next the reptiles, and then the fishes, all being so labelled and so arranged that it shall be understood by every intelligent visitor why these groups are placed to gether, what relation they bear to each other in the living world as it at present exists, what relation they have borne to each other in past ages, what further relation they hold and have ever held to each other in the daily problem of their growth and development. On another wall of the same room I would have the insect world in its history and growth ; on another the molluscs in their order of succession, growth, and present relation ; on the fourth, the radiates, or corals, sea-urchins, star-fishes, the like. . . . With labels, perhaps with some written explanations, and with further illustrations, in drawing, I should hope to make this entrance-room ex plain the general purpose and scheme of the museum. . • Having thus laid down the general sketch in this entrance room, I would have four rooms separately devoted to these classes singly—one for the vertebrates and mamma lia, birds, reptiles, and fishes, one for the molluscs, one for the articulates, and one for the radiates. Here my o' l should be to show the fulness, richness, diversity, endless variety, and complications of forms belonging to each of these types, each presenting a totally different series of ideas and a wonderful wealth of impressions. Nor is this all. Every part of the world has different representatives, and their geographical distribution is established accord ing to certain laws. Our Museum should explain this : it should have its local area, its zoological premises, to speak; in scientific terms, where the inhabitants of different conti nents should be brought together in their natural juxtaposi tion, showing how animal life is scattered over the surface of the earth. In the next place, the succession of animals in their introduction upon our planet should be illustrated. There should be a room devoted, for instance, to the 0 - fillet animals of the coal period; and then to those of the tertiary periods more immediately preceding our own geo graphical era. Aud, finally, there should be a room de' voted to embryological series, showing the problem of lift! to-day, as wonderful in its ever-renewed miracles 01 growth and development as in its relation to past ages' We would thus have the history of organic life from every point of view in which it has been studied, and our museum would bo what every museum should be, a diagram of crea tion, so*far as it is understood in the present condition of our science." The Finance Committee of the Massachusetts Legislature has reported in favour of making the appropriation for the Museum. We are glad to see that our recent suggestion as to the feasibility of introducing into New York Family Club Houses, on the plan of the Belgrave mansions in Londool bids fair to be put to a practical test. Tho World of the 9th inst. contains a plan and detailed description of such e building, which seems to meet every requirement of eco no my, elegance, and comfort. The average rental of the varl ous apartments is estimated at $2,000 per annum, which seems to us moderate enough, considering the importance , as is judiciously suggested in the paper, of erecting the pioneer building in elegant style, and in a fashionable quarter, to secure the countenance and support of a class without whose example their poor, but superior, neigh bours could never be brought to the ignominy of over a " store." The plan suggested combines s9me of the features of the co-operative system, with many of the Ad vantages of club and hotel life; and we hope that a suffi cient amount of enterprise and capital may be found to give it a trial. We believe it is in successful operation l e London, and we see no re ason t o d ou bt a t l eas t a u ale -- A success here.—Round Table. Births.
