THOMAS, Sec., 200, Euston-road, N.W. 7HE IRISH-CHU.RCH. - , A - spedial general meeting of the Fellows of Sio n College was held 'yesterday in the hall of the Col- London-walt-;—the Principal, the Rev. W. ROgers; rector of St. Botolph, Bishopsgate, in the chair—for the purpose of considering the resolutions of Mr. Gladstone on the Irish Church, now before Parliament. The meeting was largely and influen tially attended by clergymen, the great majority present being the rectors and vicars of the City and metropolitan parishes. The CHAIRMAN said he had called the meeting on a requisition presented to him by 12 of the Fellows of the College. The Rev. Mr. LEE, rector of Stepney, said, as one who had taken an active part in getting up the requisition, he would take npon himself to open the discussion. Their object was not to praise or con demn the Irish Church, but to consider certain re solutions respecting it now before Parliament, the object of which was its disestablishment and disen dowment. He approached the question as a Liberal in politics. He had always been a consistent sup porter of Mr. Gladstone, had always voted for him at the University election, and thought the University had sustained a great loss in reject ing him ; but he strongly opposed his present policy. He objected to the Irish Church being made the stepping stone to power of one party in place of another. He considered Mr. Gladstone's resolutions as destructive. They destroyed without providing any plan for reconstruction. It was a proposal for confiscation and robbery which edu cated Liberalism ought to reject. He begged leave to move the following resolution :—" Thaf au humble address be presented to her Majesty, pray ing that the revenue of the Irish Established Church may be retained for spiritual uses, and that her Majesty will be pleased to exercise her patronage as heretofore until Parliament has sanctioned a bill providing for the satisfactory appropriation of the above revenues." The Rev. W. SCOTT, rector of St. Olave's, seconded the resolution, and in doing so he con demned the conduct of Mr. Disraeli in asserting that there was a conspiracy existing against the Irish Church between the Ritualists and the Ronianists. The Rev. Dr. WORTHINGTON said there could be no question about the object of the Liberal party. Having obtained the disestablishment and disen dowment of the Irish Church they would then at tack the Church of England. He, therefore, felt bound to do all he could to support the Church in Ireland against the mongrel majority of the House of Commons. The Rev. B. COWIE, of St. Lawrence, Jewry, said the resolution before the meeting was too in definite. He should like to see a resolution ex pressly in favour of retaining the Established Church in Ireland. Although belonging to the High Church party, he was a firm upholder of the principle of Church establishments. He was afraid there was an intention to offer a bribe to the Irish landlords to induce them to agree to the spoliation of the Church. The Rev. W. MITCHELL agreed with the pre vious speaker. He strongly condemned the con duct of the Roman Catholii clergy. He moved the following amendment :—" That petitions be sent, under the College seal, to her Majesty and to both Houses of Parliament, praying them not to sanction the disestablishment of the Irish Church." The Rev. Mr. SINDON, of St. Paul's, Old-street, seconded the amendment. The Rev. W. H. MILMAN, of St. Faith's, could not agree with either of the resolutions before the meeting. - The Tory party did not support the Church of Ireland because of the good it did, but because it was an old institution. He was opposed to the existence of the Established Church in Ireland simply because it was impossible for it to perform the duties of an Established Church by attending to the religious wants of the poor of the State. The poor in Ireland were, as a mass, opposed to the teachings of the Irish Church. He defended Mr. Gladstone from the attacks that had been made upon him, and strongly condemned the attempts making in some quarters to resuscitate the dead horse of "No Popery I" It was an un worthy appeal to the prejudices of the people. All their efforts could not save the Irish Church ; it was doomed to fall from its own weakness. The Rev. Mr. KIRBY thought they should not dmtroy the Church in Ireland, but reform it where abuses could be proved to exist. The Rev. Mr. COKE, of Bethnal-green, said he was prepared to vote for the amendment, but at the same time considered there was a great reformation required in the Irish Church. If this reformation were not effected, he should be prepared to vote for its disestablishment. He condemned the attacks which some of the speakers had made upon the Roman Catholic clergy. The Rev. Mr. CUMMINGS did not cpusider the abolition of the Irish Church would do any good to Ireland. The Rev. Mr. BARDSLEY said the statistics which had been published respecting the Ir ish Church were all of them untrue. lie looked upon the Church in Ireland as a missionary Church, de serving their support. The Rev. Mr. M'GATCIIEN, of Bethnal-green, thought the disestablishment of the Irish Church would prove one of the greatest blessings for real Protestantism, and therefore he was prepared to §upport its abolition. //J PLIICF 4cl. STAMPED sd. The CHAIRMAN then put the question to the vote, when the amendment of the Rev. W. Mit chell was carried by a large majority. A committee was then appointed to prepare the petitions, and after a protracted sitting of over three hours the meeting concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. BIRM INGHAM. TUESDAY EVENING, 10 30 p.m. A meeting►, convened by the Mayor, was held in the Town-hall here to-night, to consider the pro priety of petitioning Parliament in fivour of Mr. Gladstone's. resilutions. The meeting held last Thursday night, at which resolutions were passed against the proposed disestablishment of the Irish Church, served to stimulate the enthusksm, and an hour or more before the doors of the hall were to be opened a dense mass surrounded the building, three times the number that could by any possibility be squeezed into the place. The Mayor (Mr. Thomas Avery) arrived at 7, and in 10 minutes after the doors were opened the place was crammed in every part. Such a meeting has not been seen here since the Papal aggression meeting many years ago. The chief requisitionists, and those opposed to the object they had in view, met the Mayor iu a Com mittee-room of the hall, and the order of proceed ing was arranged. When the Mayor entered the hall be was greeted with cheers ; but the adverse factions as they took their places right and left of his worship were received with cheers or groans, which were not even partially subdued for many minutes. Those opposed to "disestablishment" sent forth volleys of Kentish fire, and the vast mob on the floor of the Hall swayed forward in wave like form in spite of the lines of policemen placed to stein the tide. The excitement was. tremendous. The Mayor easily obtained a hearing. He begged for fair play for all the speakers, and explained that he had convened the meeting in compliance with a requisition signed by many hundreds. Mr. J. JAFFRAY, J.P., moved the following re solution :—" That this meeting, believing that the maintenance of the Irish Church as an Establish ment is unjust to the Irish people, a source of dis affection, and therefore an obstacle to the advance ment of the Protestant religion, heartily approves of the resolutions submitted to the House of Com mons by Mr. Gladstone for its disestablishment." Mr. GEORGE DAWSON seconded the resolution. Mr. SAMPSON LLOYD then came forward, and was received with deafening uproar. His admirers in the body of the hall and the galleries did their best, and the Mayor appealed to the spirit of fairness of the assembly ; but not a word that Mr. Lloyd said was heard beyond the reporters, though he spoke fully 20 minutes. He moved the following amend ment :—" That, while anxious to carry out any reform calculated to increase the efficiency of the Protestant Church in Ireland, this meeting is op posed to its disestablishment or disendowment." Mr. SEBASTIAN EVANS, M.A., seconded the amendment. All the while he, too, was speaking, the groans were deafening, loiidly intermingled with Kentish fire. At 10 minutes before 10 o'clock, when Mr. Evans sat down, the excitement in the hall had very greatly increased. There were several other speakers set down to address the meeting, but these were " withdrawn," and the Mayor rose to put the amendment. A very large number of hands was held up in favour of it, but on a show being taken the result was unmistakably the other way. The resolution approving Mr. Gladstone's proposi tion was then carried by a very great majority, cer tainly not less than three to one. Ou this result the cheering was tremendous. It was unsubdued for many minutes. A petition to Parliament embodying the spirit of the rosolution was adopted. Among the clergy on the platform against the " disestablishtnent " were the Hon. and Rev. G. F. Yorke, M.A., rural dean ; the Rev. Dr. Wilkinson, the rector, and the Rev. Dr. Burgess. The Veil. Archdeacm Sandford was with the supporters of Mr. Gladstone's resolutions. CARLISLE. A crowded meeting was held in Carlisle on Mon day night in the largest ball in the City, for the purpose of petitioning in favour of the disestablish meat of the Irish Church and supporting Mr. Glad stone's resolutions. Captain Ferguson, of Morton, presided. lie read a letter from Mr. Edmund Potter, M.P., regretting that he could not be pre-. sent, but saying that his constituents might rely upon his supporting Mr. Gladstone upon.this and other important measures which must quickly fol low. Sir Wilfrid Lawson, of Brayton, formerly M.P. for Carlisle, addressed the meeting at great length, and said he rejoiced in believing that the majority of 60 was the forerunner of a policy of re ligious equality in this country. Resolutions were passed in favour of the objects of the meeting, and a petition to Parliament was adopted. The proceed ings were almost unanimous, only one opposition speech being made. The further correspondence from Abyssinia just pub lished deals chiefly with the question " What will Theodore do ?" The interrogation having been made to the chief, Waldo Yasous (who, it may be mentioned, led Colonel Phayre to make the mistake about the roads), he answered that the Negus would surely fight. He had as many soldiers as the hairs of his head, quite 100,000 men, who would kill themselves sooner than run away. There is a general concurrence in advising the Commander-in-Chief to look out for surprises. On the 16th of March an alarm was given in order to test the quickness of the men. Most of them had an idea that it was real, and, rushing from their breakfasts, were ready for service in nine or ten minutes. The 4th Regiment was ready in two minutes and a half, and close indeed must have been the enemy to have effectually surprised the camp. With regard to other matters, they may be thus summed up. The roads are wretchedly bad ; the scenery is exceedingly beautiful ; the natives are more thievish as the troops go further into the country; the chiefs around are jealous of each other, but stand in awe of us ; Theodore displays some nervousness, but promise of plunder has raised both the courage and the spirits of his troops ; the number of these latter is uncertain; our army is in the best possible spirits. The only map of Magdala in existence is in the hands of Herr von Heuglin, a German explorer, for many years the friend of Theodore. This map dates from 1862. It is stated that the rock on which Magdala stands rises per pendicularly to a height of 4,000 feet above the level of the sinTounaing valleys. There is but one way up, and this is so narrow and steep that in some parts it may be defended by a single man. To starve out the garrison is rendered impossible by the extent of the plateau on which the castle is built, including a vast area of arable land and meadows ; to attack it with artillery would be equally impracticable, as no balls can reach it from below, and the nearest heights are some hours distant. Besides, there is not much of a castle to be attacked at all, the mountain of itself being considered an impregnable fortress. With these advantages on his side, Theodore, Dr. Schweinfurth (the German Abyssinian tra veller) thinks, will quietly keep to his rock, waiting for the English to be surprised by the rainy season.

The Telegraph gives the following account Of - ea affair :—" A. painful state of excitement was created on Tuesday night by a rumour that an attempt had been . made by Fenians to set Buckingham Palace on fire. Improbable as the story may appear, it was nevertheless founded upon an incident of a startling character. Her Majesty is not at present residing at the palace, and no more than the usual number of soldiers are on duty there, while the park is in the charge of the customary number of police. Between eight and mine o'clock in the evening the attention of the .police on duty near the Palace was attracted by the appearance of two suspicious -looking men. They loitered about the ground in front of the building, passing and repassing re peatedly. One of the men had a basket in his hand, which, judging by the manner in which it was carried, must ha ve contained something heavy. Both men were of the striking Irish-American type, made familiar to the En;lisli during the recent Fenian disturbances both in this country- and in Ireland. As it was quite dark, and' the men could only be examined closely when near the lamps, considerable difficulty existed in arriving at a definite conclusion respecting them. But their appearance was so far suspicious that it was wisely deternihie*l to arrest. them. This was done in a most suc cessful manner. The men, who seemed astonished on being seized, resisted violently, but were soon overpowered, and eventually lodged in cells at the King-street Police-station. An examination of the basket which one of them carried fully justified the suspicions which had been excited, as it was found to contain a large quantity of Greek fire in a jar or bottle. Sir Richard Mayne and one of the commissioners of police were at once communicated with, and the men were closely questioned. . They, however, resolutely r efused to give any account os . themselves, so that at present the police are without their names. The authorities at Scotland-yard attach great importance to this arrest. There is little doubt in the minds of the police but that the intention of the two men was to set fire to the Palace." The Post has this prominent paragraph, introduced by the side-heading " Seizure of Greek Fire:"—" On Tuesday night, while Police•s2rgeants Langley and Campbell were on duty in the neighbourhood of St. James's Park, they met three suspicious-looking men, whom they followed and stopped near Buckingham Palace. After a desperate struggle two of the men were apprehended. They were carrying a basket containing jars of Greek fire. The men —who are known to be Fenians—were taken to King• street station, and will be examined at the police-court to• day. Mr. Secretary Hardy, who was in the House of Commons at the time, was sent for and put in possession of the particulars." The Daily .News has the following :—" Rumours that an attempt had been made to fire Buckingham Palace were current on Tuesday night, and were the subject of conversation in the neighbourhood of the House of Com mons. As the result of special inquiries instituted at a late hour, we learn that the report was not entirely destitute of foundation, and it is said to be the opinion of the police that such an attempt was con templated. It seems that between eight and nine o'clock a constable in plain clothes was walking along the mall in St. James's Park, when his attention was drawn to two suspicious•looking men proceeding in the direction of the Palace. They carried a large hamper, and from their manner he thought something was wrong. He accordingly followed them, and on near ing the Palace they halted for a time, and, after looking about, turned off in the direction of Buckingham gate. He then accosted and questioned them, but could elicit no satisfactory reply. Ultimately both men were taken to the King-street station, and the constable having made his statement, the inspector on duty put the usual questions to the prisoners, neither of whom would give his name or any account of himself. They were dressed in the garb of labourers. The hamper, on being opened, was found to contain several tin cases of what is known as Greek fire,' the smell from which occasioned some alarm at the station whilst it was being inspected. The men, as a matter of course, were safely lodged in the cells." The Star has a longer account than any of its contem- poraries. From it we take the following facts :—" At an early hour on Tuesday morning information was received by the authorities at Scotland-yard that during the after noon a quantity of Greek fire would be conveyed from the City side to the neighbourhood of Pimlico. Accordingly, plain-clothes officers were stationed in that part of Pimlico which is close to Buckingham Palace, having orders to stop and . question all suspicious -looking persons who might be seen conveying any mysterious bundles • or packages in the direction of Pimlico. Several of those officers extended their ground of observa tion along and around the palace railings,watching parties coming from the direction of the Mall, as well as from Birdcage-walk. Sergeant Langley and Constable M`Don. dell were of the party, and about half-past eight in the evening they saw three men of the labouring class carryinr - , or wither dragging, along a large and apparently heavy hamper close to the Palace on the Pimlico side. The lights at this portion of the park near the Palace, unlike the more dangerous parts, are very numerous, and the officers had full ..,pportunity - of watching the movements of the• three men. • The latter laid down the hamper frequently, changed sides, talked, looked up at the Palace, then went on, and then laid the hamper down again. All this helped to make up the minds of Langley and 11193onnell that all was far from being right ; and probably having the dearly-bought lesson taught by Clerkenwell—that delays are dangerous— before their eyes, they at once went up to the men and asked them their names, business, and destination. Unsatisfactory replies were given, and, after a little parley, the officers seized the men—M`Donnell taking one, and Langley two. A fierce struggle ensued ; the men attacked the police with desperate violence, and the latter as desperately held their prisoners. Sergeant Langley knocked down one of the men with a blow, which had the effect of giving him a chance of escape, which be was not slow to profit by, and scampered off as fast as his legs could carry him. The other two men were secured and with assistance brought to King-street Police-station, Westminster. The, hamper was also brought to the station. It was found to be cased with tin, waterproof, and nearly filled with water. In the water were two large jars or bottles, containing what upon examination proved to be Greek fire; The prisoners when at the station refused to give their names or any account of themselves. They are poorly-clad Irish labourers. No charge was entered against them on the charge -sheet, pending instructions from Sir Richard Mayne." REFORMATOI?Y AND REFUGE UNION. Exeter Hall has been filled to overflowing upon the occasion of this Union holding its anniversary. Every inch of space on platform, galleries, and vestibules was economised, and shortly after seven o'clock the doors of the hall were closed, there being no room for numbers attempting to gain admission. The Earl of Shaftesbury presided, and amongst , those present were Sir T. F. Buxton, M.P., Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P., Sir Charles Fox, Mr. G. Hanbury. Mr. Macgregor (Rob Roy), Rev. J. B. Owen, Rev. Dr. Osborne, &c. The first part of the evening was devoted to the musical efforts of 700 children, who sang a number of pieces with great spirit, and elicited two or three genuine encores. These children were con nected with the various refuges and homes of London, and their clean and orderly appearance excited general admira tion. The shoeblack brigades were in their red uniform, as were also some of the children from the Home for Little Boys. The little girls from the various homes were prettily dressed, and as their " books of the words" were in covers of different colours, the platform presented gay appearance. When several musical pieces had been sung a public meeting was commenced by the audience joining with the children in singing the Old Hundredth Psalm. The Rev. J. B. Owen then offered prayer, after which a brief report was presented of the objects of the Reformatory Union and its present position. The Union was formed in 1856 to assist the various institutions established throughout the kingdom for the benefit of juvenile delinquents, vagrant and destitute children, and the outcast and homeless poor. In 1858 a female mission was established, which now employs six missionaries, and has been the means of rescuing upwards of 2,300 young women. There are 291 institu tions connected with the Union, and 22,564 inmates. The Union has made grants to refuges, &C., amounting to £13,160 ; grants for emigration, £2,167 ; grants to penitentiaries, &c., £ 2,654.
