Vengeance, 84, Captain Sir a Blackwood, Bart., has been taken over to the moorings formerly used by the St. Vincent, when flagship, off Gosport. In these times, when earlessness or inattention is so much complained of in the transport of emigrants, it is a great gratification to meet stith testimonials to British Tailors engaged in the service, and the fol lowing letters, token from the South Australian Re gister and the Sydney Morning Herald, must prove alike gratifying to the friends of the emigrants and to the commander. If such testimonials were more frequent we should have less need of them, as they would do much to allay the fears of those about to embark, who often dread the voyage more than their introduction to a distant land : tion of the Poor. They are also admirably adapted for Elementary Classes in Superior Schools, and for the p4rposes of Rome Instructin and Self Improvement. Each Catechism contains 64 pages, strongly s'-itched in neat stiff cover. • The premises are a short distance from the Greenhithe PiPr, where bolts call to and from London frequently in the day, and only half-a-mile from the Northfleet Station. _ . .

CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Englanf.„ and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/.—making together 7001., which have been paid. This,is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1949, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. Bd.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums.. Since the c..mmencereent of the Company to the Ist of June last, assuran-es were effected to the extent of 110,9721..125 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums - 3,732/. 1 ls. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9501. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. I Id. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. I Is. 10d. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the hot four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent 1.1 France, Monsieur de I'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con• siderab'e amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prospects. TO PARENTS and GUARDIANS.—A portion of the- extensive Premises in Regent-street, occupied by Messrs.

SOUTH-EASTERN.—This company's line from Ash ford to Hastings and St. Leonard's, of 28 miles, com pleting the coast communication throughout Kent, is now ready for opening, awl the necessary notices have been given for its inspection by the Government officer, who will go over it in a few days. It has been eighteen months under construction, and has cost about 560,0001., or at the rate of 20,0001. per mile for the double line of way. The distance from Ashford to Rye is about 16 miles, and the cost from Rye to St. Leonard's has been 252,0001. Towards Lydham-hill and Hastings the works have been of a heavy cha racter. To avoid deep cuttings Mr. Barlow, the en gineer, has lengthened the tunnels, of which there are four, of a total length of 3,685 yards, the Ore tunnel being 1,380 yards; Mount-pleasant, 220 yards ; Hastings, 765 yards; St. Leonard's, 1,320 yards. The opening of the line, together with that now nearly finished, between Tunbridge-wells and Hastings, which will complete the South-Eastern Railway aye tem, is looked forward to as an important step towards closing the capital account of the company. MAUYPORT AND CARLISLE.—Toe meeting called to receive the report of the committee of investigation on the affairs of this company has been postponed until the middle of next month to give further time for inquiry. HEREFORD AND GLOUCESTER.—A numerous meet ing of merchants and others interested in the P sta bl i Ann en tof railway communication between Here ford and Gloucester, via Ro• , s, has just been held at Hereford ; Mr. Prosser, M.P., in the chair. A letter was read from Mr. Saunders, the secretary of the Great Western Railway, stating that the subject was one of great interest to the company. It was stated as the result of an interview with Mr. Brunel that a single line from Hereford to Gloucesterwould cost 250,0001.; that 100.000/. could be raised from the contractors, 50,0001. by debentures, and 100,0001. in shares. It was resolved, on the motion of the Hon. A. Clive, that the Great Western Railway directors be informed that a requisition for establishing a com pany and carrying out the railway had been pre sented to the High Sheriff by:the principal landowners and capitalists of Hereford, and that the directors of the Great Western be requested to state whether they are willing to cede all their rights and interests in the line to such company, and to give it any and what pecuniary assistance, and that a simil-r communica tion be made to the directors of the Gloucester and Forest of Dean Railway.

SIR WILLIAM PARKER'S FLEET.—We have letters from the squadron dated Port Mahon, Minorca, Oct. 10, where the ships were in quarantine. When they received pratique they were to proceed on a cruise to Sardinia, Sicily, and the coast of Italy. There is no mention of any sickness in the fleet. The Admiral had his family on board the fllgship Queen, 110, and it was said he intended giving a ball before he left the island. The Scourge steam-sloop, Commander Lord F. Kerr, was just leaving for Malta, and expected back with a mail for the fleet. THE CHOLERA AND THE BaLLEßornos.---Letters from the Bellerophon, 78, Captain Baynes, C. 8., state that she was to leave Gibraltar on the 10th for Devonport. She had had 86 cases of cholera on board since she left Malta, nine of which proved fatal. Among the number of victims was the master, Mr. G. C. Dowers (1833). At our last dates the cholera had entirely left the ship, and she was quite healthy. Binshee steam packet, Master - Commander Srnithett, arrived at Davonport on Tuesday after noon, from Holyhead, and went into harbour. Birkenhead steam-transport, Master-Commander Aylen, is all ready for sea, and at Portsmouth; she was to have sailed yesterday, but, in consequence of the barometer falling very much, and the unsettled state of the weather, she will not go until to-day. She has 450 tons of coal on board, 450 tons of provisiona, and an immense number of packages for the officers of the African squadron. Blonde frigate, fitting for a hulk, in room of the old Topaze, has been taken into the angle dock at Portsmouth. Cambrian, 40, Commodore James 11. Plumridge, is ordered to be paid off, at Devonport, on her arrival from the East Indies ' without any of her internal fit ments being disturbed. Camel lighter, Faben master, from Devonport, sailed on Tuesday for Exmouth, to bring down the furniture of Rear -Admiral Moresby, C. 8., for em barkation in the Portland. Geyser steam-sloop, Commander Tatham, will leave Woolwich for the Brazils station about the latter end of next week. Hercules store•sbip, Master Commander Fulton, will sail from Greenbithe, on Saturday, for Gibraltar and Malta. _ Iphigema, old frigate, has been towed from Wool wich to Deptford , to be broken up. Lightning steam-tender, Master-Commander Pa ley, arrived at Portsmouth, from Plymouth, yester day, on her way to Woolwich. Sampson steam-frigate, at Devouport, having had The tramways in itie dockyard, contracted to be executed this season, are now completed, and will greatly facilitate the conveyance of heavy timber and other articles to and from the various parts of the yard when required. It is intended to build a set of new steaming-tanks for the -timber required to be bent for shipbuilding purposes. The spot selected for the purpose is to the eastward of the slip on which the Agamemnon, 84, is building. The Buzzard steam-sloop has taken her guns, shot, and shell on board, and is very ntsrly ready as an advanced war steamer or for commission. The engines, of 560-horse power, intended to be put on board the Leopard steani-frigate after she is launched at Deptford, on the sth of November, have been made by Messrs. Seaward and Co., of the City Canal Iron-works, at Limehouse. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—In the course of the remarks we have felt called upon to make on the- Papal decrees which affect to restore the Romish hierarchy in this country we have not touched upon any point of theological difference; we have not entered upon any discussion of matters of faith; we have not even adverted to the ritual observances or forms of worship of our Roman Catholic fellow-countrymen ; and we are not more disposed than we were before this outrage to share in the blatant intolerance of Exeter-hall. Those sacred subjects are fit matter for controversy elsewhere than in public meetings and the daily press. We apply ourselves to this subject, not as theologians, or even exclusively as Protestants, but as politicians and as Englishmen ; and we confidently affirm that, all questions of faith and morality being reserved, the line of argument which we have endeevoured-to follow is not less applicable to English Roman Catholics than to Protestants, unless the former are prepared to sacrifice their rights and liberties as citizens of this country and subjects of the British Crown to the indefinite assumption of what is called spiritual authority. We comprehend, though we do not acknowledge, the principle of the Romish ' Church, that the Pope for the time being is the standard of faith, and we shall not here inquire how impure the faith which is measured by that standard may have become ; but the best and greatest Catholic writers have drawn a broad and just distinction between this rule of faith and the actual administration of ecclesiastical affairs or the actual exercise of unlimited and irresponsible spiritual power in the relations of private lite and society by the Court of Rome. It may be perfectly consistent with the insatiable ambition of the Papal See to claim that power, but to adinitlit to itsfull extent, and to'bail the instruments by which it is to be exercised in this country, is to denationalize the Roman Catholic body, to Italianize that branch of the people of England, and to renounce with inconceivab:e servility principles which are the birthright of every Englishman in fa vour of a foreign despoti,na. By the elements of the British Constitution, and by those ancient habits of a free people which are more deeply rooted even than Our laws, every statute under which we live, every authority we obey, every act of those authorities to which we submit, is based on the assent of, the nation through its representatives, and controlled by the several institutions of the realm. The poorest subject in this land would protest against the im position of any other authority; he recognizes the will of the country to which he belongs in the laws that bind him; and he would spurn the idea of sub mission to a foreign Potentate, absolute and irrespon sible, yet affecting his greatest interests. Yet such a power, clothed in the universal and indefinite shape of spiritual dominion, is that of Popery ; and the policy of Pius IX. is manifestly and essentially to trample on the rights of every national church, to concentrate the direct administration of the whole Roman Catholic Church throughout the world in the heeds of his own ministers and emisiaries, and to exert by means of a sulject clergy a power debasing to the laity, insulting to the temporal authorities of the country, and dan gerous to the peace and advancement of the nation at large. The Papal brief of the 24th of September which re-establishes the Retnish hierarchy in England expressly declares that "all constitutions, privileges, and customs of the church in England are abolished, whatever be their antiquity, and the new bishops are invested with full episcopal power." So that even from the point of view which an English Romanist may be expected to take of this matter, the decision of the Pope is an au aacious and revolutionary interference with rights freedom, ve d r om the , minds and even and their heir consciences national independence, long anterior to the Reformati on itself and it is no thing short of the establishm en t o f a di c t a t ors hip by Rome of that m guided portion of our cou n t rymen w h o can f orsa k e their at the foot of a strange altar and at the bidding of a s vt than it h i e s e inn carried this to country, greater foreign priest.

Cullen has been speedily followed by the inauguration of a Na tional Council or Synod, which calls itself "the most so lemn and important ass em bl y t h at h as been held by the Irish Church since th e d ays a h e r glorious apostle, St. Patrick." We h a d no t the advantag e of knowing until this occasi on that St. Pat rick was one of the apo s tl es; an d in another part of the Syuodical Add ress (p. 15) we observe that these Hibernian prelat e s speak of " the pre cincts of the domestic circle where nothing undefiled should be permitted to enter ;" but with these except tions there is not a trace of nati o nal charac ter in t h e labours of the Synod. It met to ratify, or rather to obey, the injunctions of Cardinal Franzoni and the Propaganda, and it determined a question of high im portance to the education of the people of Ireland by the slavish declaration, "All cont roversy is , now at an end—the judge (i. e. th e P ope ) _has spoke n —the ques tion is decided (sic)." I n o ther words , the Queen's Ministers and the Parliament of the Ueited Kingdom, having framed le g i s l a ti ve measures to im p rov e the education of the people of Ireland, the Pope's Mini s t e r anti the Pope's Synod deliberately meet in Ireland, under orders from Rome, to defame and defeat them ; and they condemn, not only the measures of a Pro testant Government, but the acts of Flee own mo s t s r patriotic and enlightened prelates. e may not un • fairly take the conduct of the powerful hie rarchy of' Ireland as an exponent of . h Romish t e course to be pursued under the sam e authority by the less powerful but newly restored Romish hie rarchy of England. In both countries the vio lence of th e ir language and the arrogance of their policy have undoubtedly increased , with the itn• portance of the titular distinctions and the o s t ens ibl e position th e y h a v e a ssumed. For t h e mere purpo ses of the mini s try cf the priesthood it m ty be of little moment whether the altar be served by a humble vicar or a purple prelate; but for the objects of spiritual domination and governmen t, these seditious synods, these fictitious dioceses, an d these d indefinite episcopal powers are avowedly dioceses, , ie to carry on a potfiothnios of the the lib e rties and the faith more active warfare a pretensions, marked . as they of the people of England. It may be that w e can afford to laugh at such are by gross ignorance of the i t s r t u et been_ a p , i s r u i t m can be put forward at a ll rte assumption in which na tion ; but it deserves some not i ce . f il e t _ these preten sionsthey are now presented to us. Er Pope, that this country has. Ja minarescued from heathenism and restored to the sup re macy cyof the Papal hierarchy, reposes on the two ro ost o en monst rous fictions we remember to have met w i t h like the in the annals of Rome. The Church of England, e Greek Church, has for centuries thrown off her al le giance to the head acknowirdeed by the Latin Church; but when did of rsecons Rome before claim the sherightng the dio ceses of a country which could onititutiy regard with consistency, not as h eathen, but as. sch i smatic i? The position of the:Rousish clergy in th is country until the late extraordinary e dict of the Vatican was prec i sely that which befitt ed their condition. They were here in the light of sojourners in a land which ceased to belong to them ; their connexion was strictly with their own flocks, not with the country ; their commis sion,t- such as it was , embrac an their ed no more h po sitive duties ; and the station they held without con testation, was not an invasion or a defiance of the clergy of England. This' judicious moderation has been thrown aside, and without any change in the actual relations of this country to Rome a most significant change has been arbitrarily effected in the style and position of the Romish priesthood in this country. For the first time since the triumph of Protestant principles the Pope has ventured to erect in England, not a point of faith or a rule of conduct, but what must be regarded, if itbe anything, as a form of government ; and this is done.by the of ry men who are stated without contradiction to have suppressed the prayer for the Queen in the Boarish chapels of the London district. It is evident that these transactions are tainted with a treason able hostility to our national institutions; and though it may be contended by legal for malists that there is no statute to compel a Christian congregation to pray for their Sovereign or to pro hibit a spurious title, it will be not the less generally admitted that these acts constitute a moral breach of allegiance to the Crown and to the country. DAILY NEWS.—There is a much more im portant question to be asked than that of whether the Pope has wronged or ineulted us by the appointinent of a Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster. It is this, —whether the numbers of Roman Catholics are really increasing in this kingdom in such a propor tion as to warrant fresh steps on the part of the Pope in order to provide for their spiritual teaching, en couragement, and necessities. 1 - The answer to this -=and we make it with regret and shame—is, that the numbers of. the Roman Catholics in this country are increasing. And we think that the first efforts of public inquiry and of resentment ought to be di rected to this great fact and to its causes, for it is quite useless our anathemising an enemy beyond our reach abroad, for events or evils brought on by our own ladies, injustice er stupidity-at home. The great examples of defection to the Roman Catholic Church have notoriously been furnished by the universities. It is from them, our privileged schools of theology, that have proceeded the theories and the views which have precipitated men into Popery. And leading minds flatting taken this course, the novelty and attractive excitement attending it have dragged after them great numbers of the younger clergy, just issued from the universities. And these it is, com plete Roman Catholics in their hearts, though still wearing the semblance and the robe of Protestantism externally, who are employed in making converts amongst their congregations to Catholicism, under the express sanction of too many of our enormously paid hierarchy. The fact is, the country is in progress of being sold to Rome by the very institutions and the very guardians which the State has appointed, and privileged, and endowed; and the first inquiry should be into these institutions. It has been their pingui tude, their monopoly, their overbred distaste and aversion for all that is popular in religion, that has produced the opposite extreme ; and that opposite ex treme turns out to be Popery. Had the universities, instead of being kept up solely to produce dilettante ism—had they been thrown open to the middle classes, their sterling good sense and thorough national feeling would have acted as an effectual anti dote to the revival of superannuated phantas'es. But as long as these colleges are mere seminaries or resi dences for the wealthy classes, and for those who aim at becoming clergymen, or beneficed clergy av n, under the patronage of those classes, it is impossible that England should have a truly national church or a genuinely popular clergy. Tne breaches by which Romanism has forced its way into the Protestant cita• del are two. One of them we have just described, as having been effected in the universitias themselves and in our very schools of theology. The other breach has been made by the wedge which Irish p sus perism forms, and which is gradually advancing its way amongst our working population, and from them into the class above it. It is a rule, we believe, that the classes at the summit of our social fabric die off, tend are replaced gradually from those from below. Feudal law and practice have done their utmost to counteract and arrest the progress of this upward movement. But its failure has been tco evident. What now constitutes the lower class will'prohably in a century later constitute the middle one. Now one of the great substrata of our population is Irish. Their few demands, their pliable tempers, their robust constitutions, tit them for a vast extent of rough and unskilled work in all our towns, conglomerations. They are prolific, despite of misfortune ; some are pru dent, save money and rise. These have come to form large congregations in the midst of the Anglo Saxon race. We may boast of having subdued Ireland, and ex tirpated Catholicism. The boast is idle. For what was subdued and said to be extirpated is raising its head, taking its revenge, and subduing and extirpating in its turn, not with Cromwell cannon, but with the more powerful weapons of peace progress. If, then, we are seriously to set about resistance to Ronianistn, vn l i mi tntd he g e imanagement, more them atns tfinori popular ns R o ot we must repair the two great breaches by which it has entered. We must look to the condition of Ire land, and not leave to the Irish the terrible advantages of ignorance and destitution. For those it is that enable the Irish to undersell with their labour, and underwork by their perseverance the Anglo-Saxon race in our great cities. We have hitherto complained merely of that influx of Irish, which has augmented the poor rates of English unions. These, however, are but trivial effects of this invasion, compared with the more important moral and religious conquests. At the same time we must look to the universities. Even before the late Tractarian move ment, the effect of the narrowing of the universities was manifestly to narrow the Church itself, and confine it more and more to the Church of the well born and well connscted classes. If the middle and the lower class, especially in towns, gradually escaped from it, we must attribute it chiefly to the narrowness of university ideas. Yet it is the aversion entertained towards the schism, which the university Church thus created, that has driven the new clergy to the assumption of an au thority and influence which cannot be established, as i s seen , without falling back upon the religious tenets of the dark ages. We demand, however, no theological inquest. We merely say 'that the uni versities, constituted as rotten boroughs, as aristo cratic and close seats of learning, have produced cer- Englishmen, and re•organize Church patronage in siu t v a loenl i nend n glteear f ltf r ahietiels i rl i et s tporra . orkpaeairns F enoedhg re generate or re-establish that Anglican Church, w - hich, but r ha 3 o n ' : y e o uv o u ‘ foreignoen ever, u v opewr oee mani fest signs of decay. Toe precautions which it is im perativer or pontiff. As a political journal, we must avoid the consideration of dogmas, or disquisitions into theo logy. The only point f Catholicism that we need object is not even its spiritual authority, but its tem poral doings ; and to these it behoves Government and Parliament especially to attend. The Roman Catholic Church,even in its palmy, ascendant and well-endowed state, is powerfully possessed of the means of attracting, property to itself. These means of absorption are a hun dred times greater, and a thousand times more greedily and perseveringly used, in a country and a condition where that church is poor. Already, indesd, the Roman Catholic establishment is in possession of large estates and property of different kinds. The great duty of the vicar-general, or the legate, which ever it is, whom the Pope sends us, in the person of Cardinal Wiseman, is to augment and administer this property ; and we understand that his Eminence has formed a council in Westminster for this very purpose. It is a well-known lid that the late Mr. Taylor, in whose cemetery at Weybridge are deposited the re mains of Louis Philippe, was induced on hie death bed, on his bed of sickness, to disinherit his son and leave his large property of nigh 3,0001. a year to this very Dr. or Cardinal Wiseman. It is therefore not merely our consciences that we have to defend against the Papal legate, but our purses, the fortunes of English families, the independent condition of the land, and of the population upon it. Cardinal Wise man is now a foreign prince; his a lle g iance and his duty bind him to a foreign state far more than to that of England, as he has proved in his prohibition to his curates to pray for our Queen ; and yet this f ,reign prince is coming amongst us to exercise large temporal authority, in the interest, not of England, but of an Italian sovereignty. ITlitherto, we must say, the Roman Catholic prelates who have borne sway over their flecks, and who by the quiet increase of these flocks have proved themselves no unfaithful ' pastors to their church, have still exercised their jurisdiction and their influence without exciting jea lousy, or hostility, or fear, or cause of complaint. They were content with the natural propagandism of circumstances. They held the gates of the fold open, and received the sheep, which the more ignorant and arrogant Protestant pastors estranged. But this is now to cease. We are to have open rivalry. Church is to vie with church, crozier with crozier. And the episcopal choirs of Wolsey and of Crantner are to meet and have a collision in the broad thoroughfare:, of life. Such is the decree of Pope PILIF, or the de termination of his advisers. It behoves the people and the Parliament, and the courts of law, to see to it. Let those who would affect singularity with sue-: cess, first determine to be very virtuous, and they will be sure to be very singular.— Eliza Cook's Journal. PosiMASTERS AND RAILWAYS —The revenue officers have raised an objection to the custom of postmasters sending vehicles for hire On the arrival Of trains at railway termini and stations. Dear Sir,—The destination of some of the passen gers in this ship having arrived, we beg leave to ex press our warmest acknowledgments for the extreme kindness, consideration, and attention which you, as her commander, have shown on all occasions in pro moting, to your utmost power, the comfort and hap piness of ourselves, and of- every individual in the ship. Although our tribute to your professional abi lity cannot be very valuable, yet we cannot refrain from joining in that which is awarded to you bymore competent judges, and which places your name in a very prominent and honourable position amongst British sailors. Facts, however, as regards the pre sent voyage, will speak for themselves. Under your matured skill and judgment, and hating had to con tend againit difficulties which had been cast in your way by the negligence of the charterer, you have safely brought us from England to this port in the short space of eighty-six days--a time in which, we believe ships of far superior pretensions have failed in making the voyage. Whilst we feel deeply grateful to that-Providence who rules all things, and allows the skill of man to avail, we may be permitted to bear this testimony to the persevering skill and energy which have marked your conduct on all occasions, and which, under Pro vidence, have resulted in our prosperous voyage. We feel, also, that we should not omit, on this occasion, to acknowledge the attention and civility we have re ceived from all the officers of the ship. With very sincere feelings of regard and esteem, and cordial wishes for your future welfare, We beg to remain, Yours very faithfully and sincerely, Emma Banks, Harriett Bennett, Elizabeth Tripp, M. A. Scraggs, W. U. Tripp and family, Thomas A. Boulton, T. C. S. Tyrrell, Harvie E. Coombe, R. Cruttenden, H. D. Cruttenden, D. Scraggs, F. Acret, Thomas Luscombe, James Shutter. To Captain J. W. Hurst, Samuel Boddington. On board the Samuel Boddington, Sydney, 6th May, 1850. Dear Sir,—Having now arrived at our final port of destination, we, the passengers of your ship, again beg to offer you a continuation of those sentiments which were freely offered you in the port of Adelaide: your remarkably quick passage of eighty-six days from England to that port we feel conscious was achieved principally by your unwearied attention and watchfulness, and which have also been fully carried out to this port. Your great kindness and urbanity of nanners on all occasions have not only confirmed our former opinions, but likewise of those passengers who have had the happiness and pleasure of sailing with you from the ports of Adelaide and Melbourne. Words will not convey the feeling of respect which we all entertain towards you, but trust you will ac cept our sincere wiblies for your future health and happiness, and that every success may attend you during your pilgrimage through life is the heartfelt and sincere wish of Yours, very faithfully, Thomas A. Boulton, John DAy, Hannah Day, Annie E. Osborne, William Osborne, Jos. Hibbert Hopkins, Margaret M. J. Morris, Mary A. Morison, John Nisbitt, William Campbell, Frederick Acret, Charles Lister. To Captain J. W. Hurst, of the Samuel Boddington. A MODERN EXCOMMUNICATION. About a week since the walls of Warrington were pretty freely covered by placards ;resembling those usually issued for the apprehension of a runaway thief, and having at the top the ,word " Caution," in large capitals ; the name of the Rev. Richard Greenall, the clergyman of the neighbouring village of Stret ton, appearing in full length at the foot of the docu ment. For a copy we are indebted to a correspon dent, who has likewise furnished us with the follow ing particulars of the circumstances out of which the placard seems to have originated : It appears that, some time ago, a poor man, of the name of John Cooper, a farm-labourer of Appleton, and one of Mr. Greenall's parishioners, had the mis fortune to lose his wife, who left behind her an infant family of three children. On her death•bed, this poor woman made a request that, if her husband should ever marry again, he would marry her sister. Ever since Mrs. Cooper's death, the sister referred to conducted the widow's humble . establishment, and acted as a mother to the orphans, until the commence ment of the present month, whea Cooper and his de ceased wife's sister, in compliance with the dying re quest already stated, went over to the parish church at Warrington, and were there married. Almost immediately afterwards, the reverend gentleman, the clergyman of Stretton, became cognizant of the fact of the marriage, whereupon he issued and caused to be circulated a placard, commencing thus : " Caution.—Whereas John Cooper, of Appleton, by false representation of his place of residence, has entered into marriage, at the parish church of Var rington, with the sister of his late wife, which mar riage is by the laws of the land null and void. Any offspring arising therefrom will be base-born and illegitimate." The placard then proceeds to give " warning" that no two persons can be married out of their own pa rish ; and that persons making false representations as to their place of abode will . subject themselves to the penalties of perjury, &e. Oa the above production, stigmatizing ignomi niously, as it affects to do, two humble, honest, well behaved persons (as we understand these two people unquestionably are) because they have enterei into a solemn contract enjoined by a dying woman, and net contrary to the laws of nature, Or of nature's God, we see no necessity to offer any comment of our . own• Those who read the simple statement of facts will farm their own judgment and make their own comments. Bat we may as well hike tbis opportunity of mentioning that, so far from marriages of this description being un known occurrences in the Rev. Mr. Greenall's neigh. bourhood, w e have just learned that Mr. Sleigh, the bar rister, w hose name has been so long before the public as the untiring advocate of the legal;zation of marriage wiih a deceased wife's sister, has recently been to War rington, where he ascertained the preselit or recent existence of upwards of twenty- five eases of mar riage with wives' sisters in Warrington and the im mediate neighbourhood. \%'e are further told that Mr. Sleigh, who is at present making a rapid tour through England for the purpose of obtaining statis tical information on this important subject, has dis covered during the last three weeks about two hun dred cases of actual marriage with wives' sisters in the county of Lancaster and West Riding of York shire, many of which have taken place within the last year, and that gentleman declares it to be his belief that they exist to an extent little imagined, more par ticularly amongst the poorer classes of ecciety. With these facts staring us in the face; with proof of the most convincing nature that persons in all classes of society, and of all religious denominations, continue, despite the statute of William the Fourth, to enter into these forbidden marriages, without suffering the least in their social status; nay, receiving the encouragement and approbation of the great bulk of the good and virtuous of the community, we can hardly imagine the Legislature will any longer hesitate to repeal a law of which the Rev. Mr. Dale, one of the canons of St. Paul's, London, and vicar of a populous metropolitan dis trict, forcibly remarks, " So far as my parochial ex perience extends, the prohibition of marriage with a deceased wife's sister operates far more to the pro motion than to the prevention of crime. Were the e p v r o e h r i e h : e t i r c i , fi n e s e founded y o n u od rather Scripture, w t h e oug h t an ula n a t ; s b v u h t a t c s u a n e h n o s t a n s e e e t e t h n e , e is xp e e b d s i e e r n l c .e y d of e n a l law,y by w t h h i c e h , s e h r a u v p i u ng lou n s o , evaded by the wealthy, and defied or disregarded by the poor." And of which the Hon. and Rev. Mon tague Villiers says, " I am decidedly of opinion that the repeal of the present law, while it may partially, and very partially, affect the habits of society among the upper classes, will remove a barrier to marriage which now exists, but which I do not believe God ever set up. It will prevent much immorality among the poor, relieve many a burdened conscience, and tend to the increase of happiness amongst large num bers cf our fellow -countrymen." We are happy to hear that the petition now in Lniovpeerrpautoivl,e,praaysing well for a t s h e mischievous, repeal of the tat m ut a e ni signatures of several of our highest functionaries, eminent bankers , an d merchants. s j w e h s i t c lY h i "prohibits these marriages, has already received the municipal MANSION llousE.—The Lord Mayor entertained on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings A selection of his pub lic and privet() friends. blankets, bombazins, bonnets (straw), &c., cambrics, camlets, cane-workers, canvass, cards, carvers' and gilders' work, chains, anchors, &c., cisterns, clay goods, coaches, manufactures in coal, coffee pots, collar makers, combs, copper nails, crape, china, &c., cricket Lusts and stumps, desks, door plate and springs, drapery, ebony, fans, feathers or feather ornaments, files, fish hooks, fishing rods, flags, flannel and baize, flooreloth, ornamental flooring, founding metals, fur riers, fustians, gauzes, gauze wire cloth, gildings, gilt jewellery, gingham, gold and silver thread, hosiery, India rubber manufactures, inkstands, iron bedsteads, japanning furniture, japanning leather, japantling lace braid, coach lace, gold and silverlace, Leghorn bats, macintoshes, maps and charts, marquees and tents., wool mats, morocco, morocco cases, paper, parasols, parch ment, pasteboard, ornamental' pavement, pearl setting and works, pencil cases, steel pens, pins and needles, rocking horses, rope making, woolle n rugs (not hearth), sailcloth, satin, sealing wax, sewing silks, shirts, shoe mercery, spurs, straw hats, table, covers, table knives, tea trays, tea urns, tents and marquees, terracotta, thread, tin wares, toys, transparent travelling cases, tresses, brass and metal turnery, ivory turnery, wood turnery, vapour baths, wadding, walking sticks, waterproof cloths, wearing apparel, whips, writing desks.

Each Commissioner in the de partment which he represents was requested to visit and induce the eminent producers of the various arti cles named in the list of deficiencies to prepare articles for exhibition. • • • It was stated that machinery is adequately repre sented in all its branches, the deficiencies being very few in number. As it was the last meeting of the Commissioners previous to the final closing of the lists, a very strong opinion was manifested that there was a necessity for immediate and energetic action to insure the efficient representation of the manufactures of this country. The accounts as to the progress of the Jhibition throughout the country were stated to be very gra tifying. (From the Court Circular.)

ANCIENT LORD MATORai' SnowP.—The pageant of 1617 set forth "The Tryutnphs of Honor and Industry," and might be taken for a foreshadowing of what is to happen in Issl. In the course of it, Industry declared the joy she diffuses to the world, and introduced the " pageant - of several nations" to honour the mayor, wherein ti;:ured an English man, Frenchman, Irishman, Spaniard, Turk, Jew, Dane, Polander, Barbarian, and Russian. Several years fate' wards too, amongst other curious devices., a figure Was set up at Foster•lane, habited in the manner and fashion of savers! nations which trade with Europe, and was made to say, — "Although my shape may seem ridiculous, Unsuitable, rude, and incongruous, Contenine me not; there's nothing that I wear About me but some relation bear To the customes of those countreys with whom You traffique in all parts of Chthteudome." This was the Industrial Exhibition of 165 E The majority of the pageants were fanciful rather than instructive, but still had thought and skill hi them, and skilful Mechanists an 1 carvers to execute. Inigo Jones did not think it beneath him to apply his inventive powers in the preparation of s imilar devices for the Co u r t. " Invented and fash ioned , with the ground and special( structure of the whole worke, by our kingdoines most Artiull and Ingenious Architect, Innigo Jones," appears in varied words on the title-p2ge of several pageants. " In these things," says Samuel Danie I,who wrote the words for one in IGIO, as Ben Jonson had done before, " wherein the only life consists in show, the arty and invention of the architeet gives the greatest grace, and :c•isnoet iavor mice ."
