Our monsoon is considered by the weather-wise to lie quite at an end ; and the concluding spectacle, which is termed the elephantas, is note anxiously looked for as bringing a supplementary dose of water to the lamentably deficient supply which the rain has afforded.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUS. Sire—Allow me as one of the directors of the Ana'lo-Californian Company, to say one word with refeaance to the attack on the company by the writer of the City article of to-day's Times. Not to dwell on the obvious unfairness of its commentary on a reply to his charges which he refuses to insert, I proceed at once to the pith of his remarks. HH says—" To pre vent the possibility of the company feeling injured by the suppression of their chairman's letter, it may be , well to remind the public in a few words of the pre cise statements made by the Times, and to add that he has omitted to contradict any one of them." He then enumerates the statements to which (as he says) no allusion was made in the suppressed docu ment. Charge the first i, that letters addressed to the directors have been returned by the Post-office. This chArge, if it have any foundation in fact, mint have arisen from a misdirection on the part of the writers of the letters in question. To insinuate that the directors of a company would give to the public a wrong address, an address where communications would never reach theta, carries with it its own re faattian. Charge the second is, that the company's bathers, ~I.essra. Spooner, Att,vood, and Co., diia vowed their countxion with the company. Here, again, the inference sought to be drawn would argue en approach to insanity on the part of the managers. The simple explanation is, that the money of the company was entered not in the name of the com pany, but in that of Messrs. Chevin and Williams, and I suppose the Messrs. Spooner and Attwood would nut decline to vouch for this fact. It is untrue that the Times has received no explanation on this head. The explanation now given was given at the time the charge was first made, but then, as now, they refuse to convict themselves in their own co lumns. Charge the third is, that Mr. Palmer, the accredited agent of the company, was found on Sir Henry Huntley's arrival to be an ideal personage, " neither the eminent engineer nor the mines had ever been heard of." But, as the suppressed reply stated, the letters of Mr. Palmer and the original agreement he drew up, both of which are in exis tence, demonstrate the absurdity of the imputation. Sir Henry Huntley is known to many, as an Eng lish officer and a gentleman. He will soon. be in England, and then the world may judge between the company and its interested assailants. It is not very surprising that the Times should decline to insert so decisive a refutation of its " statements" as that now given ; but it might appear strange that it should gratuitously repeat those absurd yet injurious attacks did we not know the slightest flaw, the faintest error, is fatal to the pretensions of men ambitious of the prestige of infallibility, and it is to the consciousness of this that I can alone attribute this desperate tenacity of falsehood. Trusting that in courtesy you will insert these brief observations for which you are in no way re sponsible, and which are simply to warn the public of the real acts of the case, I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, CAVENDISH STUART RUMBOLD, Bart., Chairman. _ P.S.- - 1 moreover entrust to you a copy of the letter which the Times would not insert, notwith standing that the editor sent word by one of his officials on the evening of the 25th that orders had been o.yen,for it to be printed, and,,if, you can find room in your columns for'it;:t4i,o ai)in 4 will Much e nhance the gratitude-of myself' COlleigileg for so handsome a vindication of truth and justice. TO THE EDITOR ;OF , .THE TIMES. Sir,—The directors of this company claim, as a matter of justice to: the, shareholders and to, them selves, the insertion of this letter, correcting certain mis-statements (avowed and implied) in the article upon this company which appeared in your columns of the 23d inst. The account (22d inst.) of this company, written by your correspondent at San Francisco, seemed to the directors written (apart from a few inaccuracies) in a truthful and impartial spirit—and the few observations made by him, tending to throw a degree of suspicion upon some matters, they believed to have been so made with the legitimate object of calling the atten tion of the public to them. They have, therefore, read with no inconsiderable surprise the attack made on the company, in the article of the 23d instant, asserting, or implying matters so materially at vari ance with the contents of your own correspondent's letter, published the day before, and insinuating a charge against Sir Henry Huntley, in the teeth of a letter inserted in another column of the same paper, written by the directors, and stating that the com munications between the directors of the company and Mr. Palmer, were in the possession of Sir H. Huntley for certain purposes there mentioned, and therefore showing to any impartial person that Sir Henry had at least satisfied himself before his departure of the bona fides of those with whom he was acting, as well as of the authenticity of the published reports of Mr. Palmer. After referring to the announce ment of the receipt of the reports from Mr. Palmer (which reports, as before stated, are now in the possession of Sir Henry Huntley), and to the arrangement made with Sir Henry, you, in your attack of the 23.1 inst., observe that " the company have lately been advertising that they have received most flattering dispatches from him (Sir H. Huntley). It now appears, however, that no such person as Air. Palmer or Captain Tremaine was known, and that the locality of the mines, of which the London directors had issued a lithographic draw ing, was equally undiseoverable." You, Sir, and the public may judge from the following extract from a dispatch written by Sir Henry Huntley, and received by the provisional directors of this company on the 7th instant, whether the directors were or were not justified in stating that they had received flattering dispatches from Sir H. Huntley. After referring to the Mariposa Company he writes as follows :—" An in terview between the directory and myself was for this morning arranged. I read before them your letters to me ; informed them fillly'of all that, had occurred, and of your punctuality in fulfilling all engagements with myself and those employed with me; the result of which is, that you will receive with this an inti mation of readiness to amalgamate your company with theirs upon terms to be decided upon hereafter ; you will also receive a certificate, showing them to be a legally formed company ; and a certificate of the amount and quality of gold produced from a certain weight of quartz rock. I should recommend your serious consideration of the proposals of the company, which are herewith sent; for of the ample remu neration to shareholders, there can be no question." In corroboration of the above, your own corre spondent at San Francisco (after referring to the terms of the proposed amalgamation), says ; " Their undertaking is not .at all Quixotic, in my opinion. If properly managed, and they can keep their men together, they will undoubtedly make money. They have overcome the greatest difficulty which besets undertakings of this sort, namely, get ting their men to the mines I think the company was not lucky to get the (Tremaine's) land." Sir Henry Huntley has expressed an opinion in ac cordance with the last observation of your correspon dent. In your attack of yesterday (after referring to the Palmer defalcation) you remark—" Under these circumstances, Sir Henry hes permitted the miners to hire themselves to another company, the Mariposa, who coolly propose to amalgamate with his London friends upon receiving the sum of one hundred thou - sand pounds fur conceding them that privilege. As the amount thus rrquired would merely purchase the right for the nine Cornish miners to work in a parti cular spot, without furnishing the slightest guarantee that the proceeds of their labour shall be handed over by them to their employers, the nature of the offer and the present condition of the shareholders may be easily appreciated." Why your writer should have made the above quoted gratuitous assertions, or why you should try to lead persons to believe that Sir H. Huntley would not take the necessary precautions for ensuring a fair share of the pi ofits of the mines to the shareholders of this company, in the event of an amalgamation with the Mariposa Company, the directors are at a total loss to conceive. Tbey must, however, leave the following ex tract from Sir H. Huntley's dispatch before re ferred to, and from another received yesterday, to prove the value and truthfulness of those assertions. He says—"l have now to inform you that, with a view to your amalgamating with this (the Mariposa) company, I have engaged to carry the miners with me to the Mariposa Mine belonging to them. The men are wiling to go, and will receive each from this (Mariposa) company 100 dollars per month, a sum which you must have added to their wages had they commenced upon the Calaveres ; this receipt does not deprive them of the wages egreed to be paid by your company. I thought it advantageous to retain that tie upon them. . . Last week they proceeded to the mine of the company upon the Mariposa. The main provisions of the treaty (with the Mariposa Company) are as follows :—" The mine is valued at 200,0001. The stock to he divided in 2,000 shares of 1001. each. London to have 1,000 shares upon pay ment of 100,0001. to the Mariposa Company, but may a pay l d ll ma a attend eecni:dnsvaunim ctii , no, a l.le n so d tfm h te a h e n • e e t i a n proportionately less in terest in the mine. . . . I believe I have only to ample te remuneration Mariposa Mine (whichthe lease of which, I may observe, is held under Colonel I:t,nrte•timtailnitty, and ), and my certainty of the legality, sub ntegrity, of the Mariposa Mining Company." Your correspondent at San Francisco says • " The Mariposa Company made a proposal to Sir . Henry's Company that the two should amalgamate, on condition, amongst other things, that the London Company should put in 100,0001., and that then they should start equal at.d share profits half to each." Whence, then, your gratuitous insinuation on this point ? The directors may remark that, on the 14th inst., they issued a report to the shareholders of this com piny announcing the reporiei seet over by Mr. Pal mer to have been "gres3 exaggerations if nut fabri cations." As this appeared Lore the letter of your co rr e spondent at Sid i Francisco, it proves there was no concealment of this fact on their part. The lithographic drawing, which you state to have been issued by the directors in this country, was made from. a sketch by Mr. Palmer and sent over by him with his report. With respect to any proof which the directors have the power of affording you that the company in this country has been duped by Mr. Palmer, they can only repeat what they have before stated, namely, that the communications received from Mr. Palmer are in Sir H. Huntley's possession, and cannot be produced till his return, which is expected the middle of November. Mr. Massy Dawson, however, who is the bearer of this letter to you, and a provisional di rector of this company, takes with him an agreement signed by Mr. Palmer previous to his departure, the attesting witness to which shill, if required, wait upon you to satisfy you of the execution of the do cument by Mr. Palms r, and an original letter from Sir Henry, from Leamington, acknowledging the re ceipt of Mr. Palmer's first report. He will also show you the original dispatches (in the first of which he acknowledges the receipt of Mr. Palmer's second letter) received from Sir 11. Huntley, and from which the above quotations are made. In addition to the miners who went out with Sir Henry Huntley others were afterwards dispatched to join him, carrying with them large quantities of min ing tools and implements. The total number thus sent out amounts to nearly thirty. The provisional directors desire to add that as this company is not yet completely registered, every arrangement made since the provisional registration of the company (including the negotiation pending between Sir H. Huntley and the Mariposa Company) is merely preliminary. They do not base the success of this company upon an amalgamation with the Mariposa Company. They have no hesitation in asserting, that as soon as this company is completely registered (and this will be as soon as the legal formalities now/ in progress will allow) they will conclusively show that the prelimi nary arrangements made by them afford the elements of a most successful enterprise.. The company has neither debts nor liabilities, and has a balance in hand more than sufficient to meet any immediate requisi tions. The provisional directors are merely desirous at the present moment of upholding the credit of this com pany, and (as connected with it) vindicating their own honour. To this end they only require fair play; and they submit it to the public, and to your sense of jus tice, Sir, whether the permitting an unknown writer to attack them in your columns with assertions con tradicted by your own correspondent at San Fran cisco, and with injuricus insinuations founded upon those assertions, is giving them fair play. Your own correspondent says, " I am bound in justice to all parties to add, that from all I can see and learn, the company (the Anglo-Californian) has per formed all its engagements to the Cornish miners with fidelity. Money is placed here, and bills of lading for a further supply have arrived, coming forward to provide for their wants and pay for their passage into the interior." Ex uno disce °mum If in the only cases that you really know anything about facts, namely, that referred to by your corre spohdent in California, -and that iuthe absence• debtf, or claims upon the cumpanYt lkystkadosuven ; k : others in this country, you find the provisional di rectors have acted bona fide--ivhy, we ask, should you charge, or insinuate that they have acted mala fide in other cases, with respect to which you have no better -evidence than the .statement of a -writer imyour journal ?—I am, Sir, your obedient servant, CAVENDISH STUART RUALROLD, Bart., Chairman. Anglo-Californian Gold Mining and Dredging Company's offices, Oct. 25, 1850. SUGAR REFINING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The question of sager refining, which has lately been discussed in your columns, is of so much importance in every point of view to the public, that I venture to hope you will insert the following re marks :—An assertion has been hazarded respecting the effect of sulphate, or sulphite of lead, on the human constitution, which I think is not borne out by analogy ; viz., that because the sulphate of lead is insoluble in ordinary circumstances, i. e. in water, therefore it is so, andconsequently innocuous, whenin troduced into the stomach. It is, however, quite cer tain that the power of the stomach in assimilating substances are very unlimited, and to any physiologist who knows the structure of the digestive organs and their operation, specifically adapted to entangle and appropriate matter subjected to their action, it would appear a hazardous experiment to continue for a length of time the daily use of a substance well known to accumulate in the system, and to be slow, insidious, and poisonous in its effects. These effects are well known to plumbers to be incident to the manipula tion of metallic lead (insoluble under ordinary circum stances) to which their vocation subjects them. During the alterations at WiLidsor C astle, on e of the work men employed there assured me that not less than five of his fellow-workmen, plumbers, (HO of the effects of lead. It is also known that type-setters have suffered severely from the effects of lead. The argument of insolubility is not worth a straw. Calo mel, magnesia, chalk, sulphur, these are all insoluble, yet no one doubts their effects. The remark by Mr. Braude, in the report on the lead process, viz., "the objects attained by the lead process are not equally attainable by otherperfectly unobjectionable methods," is only to be accounted for by supposing that the Messrs. Oxland's process for refining sugar by the acetate of alumina has not come under Mr. Brande's notice. It accomplishes everything, and more than the lead process professes to do. It dispenses entirely with blood and animal charcoal, both well known to be great destroyers of sugar, a s well as cumbrous and uncertain in their action. The cost does not ex ceed 4s. per ton of sugar; and, entirely innocuous, attains every object. It combines the proteine com pounds and the colouring m a tt er , an d they are pre cipitated with it, and filtered off in combination. As a consequence of the sugar b e i ng f ree d from th e se c hemically injurious compounds, the crystallizing power of the sugar is greatly increased, and tram seven to,ten per cent. more of crystallized sugar is ob tained. Fuel, time, labour, and space for machinery are greatly economised, and the process is so simple that it cannot be missed by any ordinary workman. I have seen sugar refined by t hi s process , w hi c h is first r i ate i▪ n colour, cr y s t a l, an d solidity, b ut, even if inferior n colour, who w ou ld not pre f er it ? The pri▪ nciple has been acknowleged by chemists of the greatest eminence. I have seen the practical working of it, and believe it to be an absolutely per fect process, from its si m pli c i ty, i ts eco nomy in every respect, and its full attainm en t o f eve ry object desired in this great national manufacture. The subject deserves i nvest i gat i on , a nd invites it, as being of the last import ance t o the public, the re finer, and to the West Indi a proprietor. I 3m M , ED Sir, &c., ICO.CHEMICUS.

CHAIB 4N Said,,o ,overe' all awgre c the nLufe of the iiihje'bfWell'broligliiii6iWitoirether. It was qne, he confessed, which had occupied their , attention for some time. There were few who pulii have.failed to perceive that, the,tendency Of the Court ,ef*ofne e of late years was . to"intriade ppon this courts try,"upon whiCh the first open act of that tendenCy had a most important bearing. It was, therefore, with great satisfaction that he consented to call them to gether cu that occasion, feeling assured that they would all unite in doing what in them lay to express to those in authority the feelings of the clergy of the city of London on a subject important to every one, whether layman or clerk.—(Hear.) But how im portant to those who look forward to the results it was calculated to produce--those to whom God had been pleased to intrust the spiritual welfare of the in habitants of the metropolitan city of London.— (Hear, hear.) He only trusted that there might be no sign of division amongst them on that great occasion. First, they should all remember that this occasion was a purely religious one. It was a religious feeling which had called them there. He hoped they would abstain from all allusions cal culated to introduce political bias into their discus sion, and he trusted they might be enabled to agree upon some such protest as would enable them to ex press their feelings upon the religious part of the question without touching upon the other. If the law, as it now stood, permitted this assumption of power which had just been put forth by the Bishop of Rome, that assumption was entirely contrary to the spirit of the law ; and therefore, if it were true that, according to the letter of the law, this invasion were admissible, they should be firm themselves, and strenuous in encouraging others, in joining in an unanimous address to the fountain head of power, imploring that the Legislature would put its absolute unto upon this proceeding.—(flear, hear.) The Rev. Mr. .Wrx, who was very imperfectly heard, suggested that as they were all fellows of SiOtr College de yore, they should act in their proper ca pacity only to carry out the purpose for which the meeting was summoned; namely, to 'address their diocesan only, following the good examples sot by the clergy of Westminster, and the inhabitants of St. George's, Hanover-square. The Rev. Mr. MURRAY suggested that, as they were assembled to address the Bishop, they could only adopt that course at present. It would be competent for them at a future Meeting to address the British Crown or both Houses of Parliament. The Rev. Dr. M'Cann said that the present was a time of danger, and they were bound to do their best to avert it. He did not mean that it was a time of danger to Christ's truth, or to any of the Christian truths separately ; for whatever any power on earth might do, they knew that the true Church was founded on a rock, and would come forth unharmed from any attacks which might be made upon it. He did conceive it a time of great danger both to the Monarch of England and the liberties of our people. —(Hear, hear.) He thought so because it was an assumption of power on the part of the Bishop: of Rome, and there has been for some years an appear ance in this country of favouring that assumption to the detriment of the lawful Church of this realm. Princes had been overturned from their thrones when they had given support to the errors and superstitions of the Bishop of Rome. They had seen in France a family driven from the throne soon after an attack on a defenceless Queen upon whom they attempted to force the errors ot the Popish' vstem. He believed that Popery was a false religion —false because it opposed God' s t ru th s , an d because was an (l becau seforth he r e , had d p r that o te st against feeling Papal a e p a t r l e m d i ld f t or st the prosperity of the natio n . Ile hoped they it brought down the curse of th e Al m i g hty upon it ; a b w n l o edd u as sumption, and unite with their brethren to uphold the truth as they had received it from their forefathers— , to maintain it inviolate, and hand it down to their children, thus upholding the throne and bringing a blessing upon the prosperity of the English Church and nation.—(Cheers.) It was not his intention to say more than this, and he only wished to see the memorial (which had already been submitted to Archdeacon Hale) carried unanimously by the as sembly. The address which he had to propose was as follows : "TO THE RIGHT HON. AND RIGHT REV. THE BISHOP OF LONDON. "My Lord,—We approach your Lordship with senti ments of sincere respect and affection. "Having heard with indignation and concern of the recent aggression of the Bishop of Rome in appointing, by an assumed authority, a Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, and in assigning, under a Papal bull, cer tain districts of this country to the spiritual jurisdiction cf clergy entitled ' Bishops of the Romish Church:. we feel it our duty to declare our resolution, with God's help and blessing, to co - operate , as far a s we are able, in guarding the rights and privileges of our native chuteh from the assaults of foreign and usurped dominion. "They call to mind the fact that t he faith of Christ, in its purity of doctrine and wor shi p , bad been planted and established in the realm of Britain some centuries before the mission from the Roma n See, in the time of Pope Gregory, had set foot upon our shares. Wedknow, vi hen the Church of Rome had , by its unscriptural corru pted the primitive faith, with what joy the call to the Reformationrel was received in this land, and at how great price our igious free in and idolatrous practices, dom was eindiceted and recovered by our Protestant forefathers; and we believe and trust that there exists in 'tshisPro the laity as well as the clergy. of our communion such a t en te d t t h je c e Q pi u e ee o n t in all its integrity and purity, as effectually to resist this novel and presumptuous movement, which appears to us hearty desire for the maintenance of the Christian truth Majesty t a o nd be th n e ot l testant kingdom, and a bold attempt to undermine and eventually destroy, our Constitution in Church ' and State. " Th a t your Lordship will be pleased, under the blessing and guidance of the head of the Church, to offer your powerful aid and counsel in the present con juncture. hawinlgullepasretlhaatensaenclaeffrgroyn, We c annot conclude this memorial without request ing to offer to your Lordships our best and warmest thanks for the dignified and uncompromising Christian tone of your reply to our brethren at Westminster. " And we ever pray, &c." He would observe, in order to carry out his former sta t e ments, that the Bishop of Rome - had usurped the prerogative of our Sovereign in appointing spiritual dignitaries in this land. It was equally is fact that he had invaded the jurisdiction cf the Primate of All England and other prelates. They had seen the pas toral letter of the Cardinal Archbishop of Westmin• ster, and observed the expression " we govern:' as if he had received his jurisdiction from the Primate 01 England. He thought that by that act the law of England was invaded. By it had been done, in de fiance of the laws of England, that which no Popish Sovereign in the world would submit to. Was there any Popish country, Austria or any other, into which they found that a Papal bull could come without being first submitted to the Ministers of the Sovereign ? In the same letter was nu attack upon the religion of their country, which was spoken of as being in total darkness for three centuries, while we had the glorious light of the Reformation, and the country had become greater and 'more glorious, and more prosperous, than any empire that ever existed of which they had read, in the whole history of the world. It was an attack upon the clergy and free dom of the country, because, if the Papal dominion succeeded, they had only to look forward to the same bodily tyranny under which so many martyrs perished in the flames,—(Cheers.) The Rev. T. 11. HORNE seconded the motion. The Rev. T. B. MURRAY sail that, as one of the clergy, and as a fellow of Sion College, he had signed the general requisition to Archdeacon Hale, and therefore he might be justified in saying a few words upon the motion then before them. They must all regret the absence of the Venerable Archdeacon, and the cause of his inability to take part in the proceed ings of the day. They had arrived at a crisis in the Church ef England, which ought to mi.ve every one who had an attachment to that Church to bestir him self in its defence.—(Cheers.) The circumstance under which the recent appointment, or he should ra ther say attempted appointment, was made must ex cite them all as followers of the religion of this coun try, and as patriots, to defend the Church of England as far as possible in this conjuncture.—(Hear.) What was this measure but one which children might call absurd ; but which, unless it was averted, they would live to deplore ? It was an attempt to overturn the principles of the Church of this country, as well as an attack upon the Queen.—(Cheers) And those who followed the tenets of that Church which had been handed down to them from their forefathers would certainly do their best to defend its precepts and the principles acknowledged in this country. The clergy of London, as well as the clergy throughout the country, must now follow the agitation that had been commenced for upholding the Christian truths in their purity and integrity. The people, rich and poor, old and young, had the Papal attempt placed before them, and they would no longer be deceived by the attempts of a church which sought to destroy their best rights. • He should be glad to see all men with the Bible open before them in a good, plain, and honest version. The people were already aware of the value of the Book of Common Prayer in its de vout and spiritual form of words, yet couched in language which the, people could understand. They were too well aware of the principles of their religion to adhere to a church which, by its ceremonies, in duced its votaries to pay homage to the creature which was due only to the Creator, and which, on other points, was equally calculated to mislead them. On these grounds, as well as OR those of patriotism, and he might add humanity, it was their duty to be up and stirring. They should remember the price at which their religious freedom was vindicated and re covered at the time of the Reformation, and those who knew that the Church of Engiand was, in its heart and principles, opposed to Popery and Romanistn, would never suffer that the country should be burdened with that which had been once happily re moved from them--that which their forefathers were not able and not willing to bear. And whatever partiality might . in -the 4iresent day be evinced to tenets difft4ing from theit:o*n AbOrios;quld not tolerate this aggression. It was not, however, their part to precipitate tho frightful struggle that must ensue in the case of these two conflicting principles - 4L being' brought into opposition.' Let them endeav - our iii uphold the Churcirof•Eugland.its that purity which had been handed to them, and not permit it to be over run by doctrines which were strange to this land. He had not touched upon the insult which had been put upon the Queen by this step of a misguided man —(Loud cheers)—probablY taken in consequence of certain insinuations respecting England which had been breathed into his ear, but which had no founda tion in fact, for he (Mr. Murray) believed that Eng land was truly Protestant at its heart's core. They must see that these measures were aimed at the throne, which it was their duty, as loyal subjects as well as clergymen, to endeavour by all means to keep secure and safe, while its antagonists tottered to their fall. On these grounds he heartily concurred in the subject of the memorial, and he did most thoroughly believe that England would still maintain her position, not as the creature of a foreign dominion, but in that glo rious situation in which Providence bad placed her, assigning to her the guardianship of Christianity amongst the nations of the earth.—(Loud cheers.) • The Rev. Dr. CROLT said that he should be very unwilling to see anything like division or disunion in a meeting of that description, where all were united in one common feeling. He thought the present ad dress premature, as the Bishop of London was to hold his visitation in two days, and to memorialise him just now would look somewhat like dictation. The Bishop would give them his advice unasked. They knew what his opinions were already, and he (Dr. Croly) felt some anxiety in thinking that the address was not addressed to the proper quarter. As to the -opinions and sentiments contained in that address, there could be no difference of opinion ; but that ad dress ought to have been to the highest power in the, realm. There had already been an address to the Bishop, and that was quite sufficient in anticipation, as his opinions were already declared. In reference to the subject before them, he would read one or two do cuments bearing upon it—the one was the rough draught of an address to her Majesty, which he had that morning prepared ; the other referred to the oaths taken by the Sovereign on coronation. The Rev. Gen tleman then read the form of address which he pro posed, and proceeded. The Pope had usurped the supremacy of England, Scotland, and Ireland in the middle of the sixteenth century. That supremacy was abolished in. the seventeenth century by the Ist of William and Mary. After abjuring the doctrine that excommunicated princes might be deposed and murdered, which doctrine he justly pronounced damnable, that oath proceeded to say, " I do declare that no foreign prince, power, or potentate, bath or ought to have any jurisdiction, power, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical, or civil, within this realm. So help me God." By the Act 31st of George 111., a Papist might hold office by taking the al'uring oath with reference to the civil and temporal office of the Pope. The supremacy or head of the Church was given to the king in 1534, and confirmed in 1538, by the 26th of Henry VIII. The oath was as follows :—" I do swear that I will defend to the utmost of my power the settlement of property within this realm as established by law, and I do hereby disclaim, disown, and solemnly abjure any intention to subvert the present Church Establishment as established by law within these realms, and I do solemnly swear that I never will exercise any privilege to which I am or may become entitled, to disturb or weaken the Protestant religion or Protestant Govern ment in the United Kingdom." At the ceremony of the coronation the monarch, after having the two pre vious questions of governing according to the law and causing the law and j ustice in mercy to be executed inall judgments, was asked by the Archbishop the following question, which was of much greater length than any of the former :—" Will you, to the utmost of your power, maintain the laws of God, the true profession of the Gospel of the Protestant reformed religion, as established by law; and will you maintain and per form inviolably the settlement of the united churches of England and Ireland, and the territories thereunto belonging; and will you preserve unto the clergy and bishops of England and Ireland, and to the united church and all the territories under their charge, all rights and privileges which, by law, do and shall ap pertain to them or any of them ?" The monarch an swers, "All this I promise to do ;" on which the mo narch proceeds to the altar, and there, receiving the Bible, makes oath, holding his hand upon the book, " The things which I have here promised I will per form ; so help . me God." The book then was kissed and the oath signed. After this he would mention a fact showing the value of the oath administered to Roman Catholics. Four years after the oath was prescribed the Government of the country was cast out by a combination of Roman Catholic Members of Parliament on a question relating to the confiscation of the whole of the property of the church of Ireland, and afterwards upon ano ther measure (Lord Stanley's), by which ten of the bishoprics were extinguished. One-fourth of the whole episcopal body extinguished. As to the act by which the present agitation was brought for ward in this country, he rejoiced at it. It had brought matters to a head, and there could be no possible disunion or discrepancy of opinion respecting the recent partition of this realm. It showed that it was impossible to rely upon the word of Rome — (Loud cheers) —that they could make no compact with Rome.— (Renewed cheers.) It showed that while dealing with us as a nation they had regarded us as in a state of heathen barbariasm, abandoned by the Gospel. As far as they (the clergy present) were personally concerned, their ordination letters would not be worth a straw. Rome regarded them as out of the pale of Christianity any further than claiming the right to exercise its power over us. Englishmen were regarded as rebellious subjects of Rome, andof course as persons upon whom the whole power of Rome should be exerted. But if the question were to be con sidered in any degree as serious he would indeed con fess that it must only be regarded as an act of divine power for the purpose of awakening the Protestant Church of England to its duties interests, and necessities. Had this measure not been adopted the Church of Roma might have gone on seducing them, a nd for years en croaching upon the Church of England ; but now war was declared, and that in a manner as r idiculous hf and offensive offensive as possible. from the stat e of things w it was declared. Was it by the Pope, the w the world—a potentate di stin g uished by his ability • and energy, when kings held his stirrup and led his horse, as it was formerly ? No, it was a feeble man —a beggar upon the face of the earth—(Hear)—a man living upon the alms of a degraded nation—the lowest of all Sovereigree endeaveurieg to subjugate the most powerful of all empires.—(Hear, hear.) It would be quite enough for them to rise as one man in indignation, which was the proper feeling, rather than condescend to enter into argument with such a being. It was a foul shame that the Pope—that worshipper of idols—(Great applause)—that miserable dependent upon the pawer and alms of a beggarly nation—that the Pope, a man of nothing, should come and invade these realms by his menials, for all men in the Popish service were menials, and should say that England had returned to its ecclesiastical order, from which it had hitherto been wandering in darkness. This came from a man who was himself dependent upon the sound of the French drum, whose power was based upon the presence of foreigners in Rome. Was it thus that the great Church and people of England, ennobled by so many illustrious recollections, powerful by its hold upon the affections of the people, by its iminage ineut, conduct, and discipline, the geetleness of its administration, and the dignity of his offices---(Hear, hear)—was it this great Church which was to be decked out as a victim for the altar of the Pope—a sacrifice by its own want of caution ?—(Cheers.) What they required was not to go to any inferior quarter. He had much respect for the Bishop, but he advised them to go straightforward to the queen I as the body of the clergy of London, and at once present their memorial to her Majesty. He would take the liberty of suggesting that the memorial he had read, although it might not be adopted at that meeting, might be adopted at some future one, as it was, in his opinion, the just course for them to adopt under the present emergency.—(Cheers.) The Rev. B. H. RUDDOCK said, that it was the duty of the clergy of the city of London to be as united in the defence of their privileges as their brethren of Westminster. If the Roman Bishop had been bold enough to parcel out Southwark and West minster, why should he not parcel out London and Finsbury ? He did not agree with the Rev. Dr. Croly upon one point, for he would express his wish and desire to approach the Bishop ; although, what his advice upon the matter would be it was not diffi cult to anticipate. The attack and insult which had been offered to them seemed to him to be the result of a perfect infatuation. The Bithop of London himself observed in his address to the clergy of Westminster that it was not merely a mistake hut absolutely a false step. It seemed like an infatuation in a person who bad been hurled from his throne by his own subjects—(Hear)—and sought safety in flight, before being reinstated on that throne, to turn round and parcel out the dominions of a Protestant Sovereign— the dominions of the greatest Protestant Power in Europe. He believed that such steps were the signs of desperation.—(Hear, hear.) In conclusion, he would urge them to remain staunch supporters of " the faith transmitted to them, and in which they bad been reared. The Rev. Dr. WORTHINGTON said the address laid before them by Dr. Croly was worthy of future consideration—it would be the basis of a subsequent memorial ; but on the present occasion let them not exhibit the faintest appearance of difference of send , ment, as as it would cause their enemies to believe that the English Church was not capable of union or co-Operation. Several gentlemen of higher powers than his own had pointed out to them various facts conhOtpci Nyity, -- t4f:Cliulh of Rome, and he would venture to mention a 'ew. the 'first was, illeit the Protestant ' hiStoilaii 'Raiskih' had ISieneee 'that the asserted early dominion of.the see of Rome over the eastern and western Churches was a lie. As to the right. of appointing bishops .in a foreign country, Philip 11., even iu his most bigoted days, had al ways refused that right to the Pope, and neither in France nor Germany had such a power been ad mitted. Even the remarks made by the Papal see upon the conditions and conduct of James 1., showed a tendency to require a degrading subjection to it. It was requisite that it should be fully under stood that the power of Rome, as asserted, was illegal and unconstitutional, and was based upon depravity and falsehood. Could they prove the assertion that the early British Church—British or Anglo-Saxon— was ever under the dominion of the Romish see ? Further, with respect to the penalty of pramunire, which had been characterised by the Romish see as an excrabile statutum, that statute enacting who should obey any dictate from Rome or elsewhere, or do any act affecting the, jurisdiction of the Crown, in this realm, should be put out of the King's protection, their lands and goods confiscated fur the King's use, and themselves dealt with as the King, in his Council, should advise. The Magna Charta provided, also, distinctly for the liberty of the Church, and provided against its undue infringement by any power what soever. If they agreed to this memorial, he hoped that it would give warning to those formerly of the English Church who had lapsed to Rome, and those who A ere said to be in a state t f transition. It would make them turn to one-thing or the other—either to the Church of Rome or to the Church of England. lie trusted that their proceedings of that day would have a beneficial effect in inducing both clergy and laity to join and resist this act of aggression. The Rev. Mr. HARDING supported the proposition for an address to the Bishop, as it stated the grounds upon which the founded their objection to this inno vation from Rome. They were, however, privileged to address the Throne subsequently, if they should so determine. The Rev. Mr. Hones then addressed the meeting briefly, and after a few words from Dr. RUSSELL, The CHAIRMAN put the question, when the address was agreed to nem. con. It was afterwards agreed that a future meeting should take place to consider the propriety of pre senting an address to her Majesty. The meeting then thanked the chairman, and se parated. - THE LATE FIRE IN MARK-LANE.-RECOVERY OF SOME THOUSAND POUNDS WORTH Or• PROPERTY. Six weeks had yesterday elapsed from the time the great fire in Mark-lane commenced, and during the whole of that period between 30 and 40 men have been employed in cooling the ruins and collecting together the salvage, but of such magni tude is the former, that it is expected another three weeks will be required to get the articles still remaining out. The amount of bristles already recovered is enormous; it is com puted that from 24 to 25 tons have been taken out and safely housed in one of, Messrs. Gooch and Cousins' wool-ware houses. Some of thesa articles were worth from 12s. to 16s. per lb. 'lt is expected that what have already been saved will realize from 3,5001. to 4,0001. An iron press has been extricated, of immense weight, and many parts were com pletely fused. Many of the trophies sent over to this country for the friends of the officers who fell under Lord Gough, have been totally destroyed. The amount of iron and steel work got out of the ruins it is expected will weigh 45 tons. Ten tons of horse hair have also been got out very little damaged. and from two to three tons of bitter aloes, and 60 tons of jute. As much as 6901. has been realised up to the present time by the sale of some of the most cumbersome articles taken out. A vast quantity of goods of every description, however, still remain beneath the surface of th• ruins. . _ _ ' • EXHIBITION or 1851.—The time having expired roi receiving applications for space in the building from local committees, no further applications can be received by the I:xecutive'Committee. Yesterday the lists of intending ex hibitors were closed. There was a great rush of applicants at the last moment, as we anticipated; and the amount of • space demanded in some quarters has been nearly doubled within this week ; but, inasmuch as the full and authentic lists will be drawn up forthwith, we refrain from giving fur ther random and piece-meal accounts of the promised con tributions. It will be, however, absolutely necessary to re ceive applications from one or two' localities, the products of which will not be found in the lists. Unless many applica tions for space have been made within the last fortnight, under the section of raw materials, the Exhibition will, we apprehend, be deficient in British minerals and vegetable products. We hazard this opinion with the view of draw ing the attention of those whose industry has not yet found adequate representation, to the necessity of bestirring them selves. WINDSOR, THURSDAY.—.Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert and Royal Family will arrive here on I riday (this day) to luncheon. The royal party and suite will travel by the South-Western line of railway to Basing stoke, and thence by the Reading branch to Windsor, on the Great Western line. Several of the royal vans, with lug gage, arrived here yesterday. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, who came to Frogmore ou the 18th mat.. is enjoying excellent health, and takes her usual carriage airings when the weather is favourable. The Royal Duchess drove as far as Claremont last week. The Prince of Wales's birthday will be celebrated at the Castle on the 9th proximo. Her Majesty's private band, which has not played before the Court since the death of Sir Robert Peel, has received orders to meet for rehearsal at the Castle to-day. Mr. Mor ton, from the Opera House, has been appointed oboe player, in the room of the late Mr. Florke. Between two and three h un d r ed workmen are engaged at the Castle, preparing for her Majesty's reception. ACCIDENT TO MR. CHARLES MATHEWS AT THE LYCZUM TfinaTEE.—Last night an accident occurred to Mr. Charles Mathews, the lessee of the Lyceum Theatre, during the performance of the new comedy, My Heart's Idol, which it is expectsd will prevent him from fulfilling his pro fessional duties for some time. In the first scene Mr. Mathews fences with Mr. Vining, and during one of the thrusts given by the latter gentleman, the point of his sword unfortunately passed through the palm of Mr. Mathews' left hand. That gentleman immediately left the stage, and the audience were not aware that the accident had happened until Mr. Roxby, the stage manager, approached the foot lights, and craved their indulgence for a few moments, as Mr. Mathews had met with an accident. The curtain was dropped, and the orchestra performed several pieces, bat the audience becoming impatient, Mr. Roxby came forward and announced that the comedy could not be performed, and that he was then waiting for the arrival of the company for the last piece. The performances were resumed after a delay of about an hour. On making in q uiries at the stage-door, it was found that Mr. Mathews was suffering acutethe pain wound, and that Dr. Jones, his medi cal adviser, had dressed which was of a most serious c haracter. It is announced that t h e theatre will be close d this evening in consequence. THE IMPROVEMENTS IN CHANCERY-LANE.- - At a local meeting held last evening it was stated, that after all the exertions that had been made, and the highly liberal concessions offered by Mr. Steel, matters still remained in state quo, and that unless the benchers of Lincoln's Inn take up the matter immediately this most dangerous thorough fare will be continued for many years to come, The dryads and hamadryads of the woods and forests will not move in the matter, nor will Lord Radnor ; hence the continuance of a nuisance fraught with every raiscliiet and. paxger to this _ most crowded highway, IL _---,
