RACECOURSE, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, 4 O'CLOCK. awls, The " Great St. Leger," after a series of fluctuations, mys tifications, and scratchings almost without parallel, has at length been brought to an issue, but under circum stances that sadly lessened its attractions to those whose interest in it lacked the impulse of speculation. We al- luded to • a change of weather in our last ; it became more decided as the night7advancod, and the promise of the morning was wretchedly unfavourable ; the rain fell steadily, and the prospects of the " grand day" were of the gloomiest description. This, beyond doubt, had an effect upon the attendance; still those already on the spot, and vast num bers who came by the night train from London, York, Liver pool, Manchester, Birmingham, and other distant places, and the: thousands at Sheffield, whom no weather can daunt, were not to be disappointed, and the streets, long before midday, were almost blocked up. Of equipages of a higher class the display was far from " imposing," unless we take the word with the signification attached by those who may be ancient enough to remember the golden days of the turf there were several unpretending carriages and pair, and a few " fours," but of " display," in its true meaning, the less said the better. However, this and the badness of the weather until midday, may have detracted from the " grandness" of the day, it by no means warrants an inference of failure or flatness ; on the contrary, the assemblage was immense, re minding us of Doncaster in its palmy days, and it must have gratified those who have been so active in purging the turf from its impurities, and making it again worthy of patronage and support from the higher classes, that the proportion of the aristocracy of both sexes exhibited a very large increase. Anything like a perfect list of the visitors is out of the ques tion ; we can now only make a selection, reserving a more comprehensive " Court Circular" for a future day:-- His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge.

Business recommenced -between ten and eleven o'clock this morning, and in_the midst of an almost impenetrable crowd was kept up with "more cry than wool" for a couple of hours. The most important item in the proceed ings was a declaration by Mr. Gully that Old England would not start. This was a thunderbolt to those who but ten minutes before had invested at 15 and 16 to 1. It was also stated that Red Robin would not ran, but no official an nouncement was made. The prices of the favourites varied in some particulars from those last quoted. Miss Sarah was backed at 9to 4, Mentor at 9to 2, Weatherbit at 6 and 7 to 1 (plenty of layers), Pantasa at 10 to 1, The Baron at 12 to 1, The Pasha at 10 to 1, Annandale at 12 to% Duc-an- Durras at 1,000 to 30, and Fitzallan at 25 to 1. By one o'clock the room was closed, and the scene shifted to the race-course. Fortunately the weather had now cleared up, and, to the delight of the thousands congre gated on the ground, has been fine up to the closing of our express. The Municipal and Selling Stakes got over, the bell rang for saddling for the only event that possessed any interest — the St. Leger.

The horses were started by Lord George Bentinck (the jockies having previously drawn lots for stations), and after being paraded up the course to the end of the rails and back to the post, were got off in beautiful order at the first at tempt. After the first fifty yards Twig took a lead of several lengths, and with Chertsey and Pantasa in his wake, and Miss Sarah, The Pacha, and Weatherbit laid up with the latter, made running at a tremendous pace to the mile -post; here his followers closed with him, and before he reached the Red House he was beaten. Chertsey, Pantasa, Miss Sarah, The Pacha, and The Baron went on in a cluster into the straight course, where Chertsey gave way, and The Baron took a slight lead, and increasing it up the distance he reached the chair a gallant and very clever winner by a length ; Miss Sarah beating Pantasa by half a length.

Accounts have been received direct from Rio to the 11th July. Political matters were quiet, and the Budget was expected to be passed by the Senate. Exchange 24% to 25. There are not any arrivals of the least importance an nounced in the City this morning. The half-yearly General Court of the Proprietors of Bank Stock, held this morning, was of some interest, but rather thinly attended. The usual dividend was announced, though some of the Pproprietors thought it ought to be higher. The project, some time in embryo, of establishing a Branch of the Bank of England at the West-end of the town, was casually, and we may say rather guardedly referred to. The subject still remains for the decision of the Court of Directors. The Governor (Mr. B. Heath) was most explicit as to the details of the affairs of the Corporation, and certainly most satisfac tory they were ; as, after paying the half-year's dividend, which will take' 494,5091. odd, the balance of undivided pro fits amounted, on the 31st August last, to 3,094,371.115. 4d. The income-tax, amounting to 14,8241. 3s. 4c1., is included in the same sum as the balance, or rest. And, after all deductions on account of both items, there was added to the rest a sum of 15,363/. 14s. Bd. Well, indeed, may the Proprietors be thankful for such good ma nagement, especially as our old friend Mr. Clark quaintly observed, considering the low rate of interest that money has borne for a long time past. It will be seen that the market value of Bank Stock has been fully supported to-day. The Branch Banks of the Corporation are paying very well. Not much business was transacted in the Consol market this morning. For the Account the quotations are flat, and at 98% and 98A, and for Money at 98% 5 ; for Long An nuities, from 11 to 11% ' • and for Exchequ er -bill s , f rom 46 5 . to 48s. premium. Bank Stock for the Account has been done at 213%, and India Bonds at 625. premium. The only prices for the Foreign Stock to-day have been in Old Danish, at 90 ; in Mexican Deferred, at 17% 1 ; in Spanish,lat;27%; in the Three per Cents., at 38% ;in Belgian Four-and-a-Half pe r C en t s ., at 10%; in the Dutch Two-and-a. Half per Cents., at 61; and in tho Four per Cents., at 98%. The markets look rather heavy. The Railway Share Market has not been very animated to-day, but business to a good extent has been effected. The settlement can scarcely be said to be entirely over yet, such is the amount of speculation and of real business that has been entered upon. The principal alterations have been a slight fall in Birmingham a n d Oxford Junction—in Bristol and Exeter from 85 to 83—a rise in Goole and Doncaster to 6.. The Great Westerns have receded from 170 to 163, the Half Shares from 96 to 92%; the London and Birmingham opened at 222%, and are now 221; the Midlands are lower, so are the Newcastle and Darlington Junction.

(Before Mr. Under Sheriff Bußcnt.u..) WHITTENBURY V. WESTROPP. This was an action for goods sold and delivered and work and labour done. The claim was 191.25. The defendant pleaded that he never was indebted beyond the sum of 61.25., to which he had a set off. Mr. CHARNOCK stated the case. The plaintiff was for merly a baker in the Whitechapel-road, and the defendant purchased hisbusine,ss,'after which he engaged the plaintiff to superintend some repairs, for which he charged 21. a week ; the rest of the account was for a mainsail, &c. for a smack, a trough, and other things. He (the Learned Counsel) re gretted that the offer he had made to refer the matter to some competent person, and that defendant should make an apology for some expressions he had used against the plaintiff on which an action had been brought, had been refused. The plaintiff would take 121. and an apology. Mr. Hmvxmrs, for the defendant, proposed that all matters should be referred unconditionally, and an apology to be made on either side ifdeemed proper by the referee this pro posal, however, was rejected. Several witnesses were called, and the main evidence was as to the value of the sails and their sale to the defendant. In cross-examination two of the plaintiff's sons, who had given their evidence in a very evasive manner, admitted that the plaintiff had deposited the sails with the defendant as security for flour supplied to him. Other witnesses spoke to other admissions of their being left with defendant for 151. A further sum of 101., claimed for money paid for defen dant, was abandoned. The jury retired for some time, and then gave a verdict for plaintiff. In consequence of the vacation in this Court the list was very heavy. Mr. HEATON said he was engaged in the last case but four, and as there did not appear to be any chance of its coming on, he wished to know wheth er th e L earne d U n d er -Sh er iff would not fix upon a certain number to be taken this sitting ? In other Courts the Marshal limited the number, but here great inconvenience arose through so many cases being set down which could not possibly be heard, although a great number of persons were kept in waiting. The UNDER-SITERIFF said that sometimes they got through twenty or thirty cases in the day. Those to-day, however, appeared to be heavy; he would, therefore, not take any beyond No. 17. The above case lasted nearly three hours. The Learned Under-Sheriff said it could have been settled out of Court by any competent person in half an hour. CRIMINAL COURT.--(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the COMMON-SERGEANT.) Charles Maynard, aged 47, described in the calendar as an agent, on being placed at the bar on a charge of felony, for receiving a desk stolen from the Great Western Railway Company's station, and on another charge for bigamy, pleaded Not Guilty to the former charge, but Guilty to the charge of bigamy. The COMMON-SERGEANT stated he would not sentence him on the charge of bigamy until he had been tried on the charge of felony. ROBBING LODGINGS.—James Matthews and Mary Anne Thomas, respectable-looking people, pleaded Guilty to the charge of stealing a quantity of goods. It appeared that the Prisoners removed the property at various times, and pawned the various articles afterwards. The prisoners were sentenced to be imprisoned for six months. STEALING rno3r A SHIP.— George TVebb, aged 15, appren tice, was indicted for stealing sixteen sovereigns and other moneys from the captain of the vessel in which he served. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, that having occasion to leave the vessel, he found on his return that the prisoner had absconded. He immediately went to the mother of the priSoner, where he found him ; and on charg ing him with the robbery, he replied he had not taken all the money from the desk. As the prisoner was strongly recommended to mercy by the prosecutor and jury, it being his first offence, the sentence was limited to three months' imprisonment in the House of Correction, with hard labour. (Before Mr. Justice Wicarriumt and Mr. Justice ERLE.) MANSLAUGHTER.—James Hawkins, aged 37, surgeon, was indicted for having feloniously caused the death of Mary Anne Crowder, by wilful neglect on his part in attending her in childbirth, in his capacity of accoucheur. Mr. O'Brien appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Clark son defended the prisoner. Catharine Thornton deposed that she lived with the de ceased Mary Ann Crowder. On the 30th of July last de ceased was taken ill, and the prisoner was sent for to attend her. He arrived a little after nine in the evening. About half-past eleven deceased was delivered of a living child. Between four and five the following morning deceased com plained of a severe pain in her stomach. This Hawkins ac counted for by natural causes. She continued to get worse until eight o'clock, when she was delivered of a second child. She shortly afterwards sunk, and died at a quarter past six in the evening. Cross-exaniined by Mr. CLARKSON—He had always heard deceased speak in the highest terms of Mr. Hawkins' care and skill. Mr. Bartlett and Mr. Thorne, two other surgeons, were called in. Deceased was assisted in the delivery of her second child by Mr. Thorne. Elizabeth Smith, midwife, examined—She was called in on the morning of the 31st July to attend deceased. She was then very ill. Deceased said to Hawkins, " I'm sure you have murdered me, for I know there is another child." Nicholas Crowder—Was husband of deceased. He went for Mr. Hawkins at eleven o'clock on the 30th July. Upon finding deceased so ill he implored him to send for further assistance, but he replied that twenty doctors could be of no further use to her. After the delivery of the second child he reproached Hawkins with his want of skill, but he left with out further reply. Michael Balt'lett, surgeon, of 24, Hatton-garden—He was called in about nine o'clock on the 30th of July last. He found the deceased very ill, and one of her intestines very much inflamed. He then went for Mr. Thorne, and upon returning, found a third surgeon, a Mr. Gibson, there. Upon Mr. Thorne examining the woman he found the existence of a second child in the womb. There was no difficulty gene rally in ascertaining whether a second child remainsin the womb. It was always the surgeon's duty to ascertain that fact. The second child was delivered by means of instru ments. If these instruments had not been used the deceased would have died undelivered. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKsoN—There was a rupture of the vagina. This might have been occasioned by the birth of the first child. In his opinion it was imprudent to use in struments to accelerate a second delivery under such circum stances. He had heard of a late case in which a first-rate practitioner was unable to detect the discovery of a second child. He understood Mr. Hawkins to be a very skilful man, and had sought his assistance in cases of necessity himself John Thorne, surgeon, Mill-street, Pentonville, examined —Between nine and ten in the morning of the 31st July be arrived at the house of the deceased, and found her in a very prostrate condition. He examined her, and found the pre sence of a second child. He immediately informed the other surgeons of the fact. He delivered the child at once. He had attended the post mortem examination. The parts were much swelled, torn, and otherwise injured. Tho deceased, in his opinion, had died from these injuries. There was not in any instance the slightest difficulty in ascertaining the exist ence of a second child after the delivery of the first. John Gibson, surgeon, of Holborn-hill—Had a tt en d e d de ceased on the lst of July. He deposed to the same facts as proved by Mr. Bartlett and Mr. Thorne. Dr. Davies stated he had made a post mortem examination on the body of the deceased. He described at length, and with great minuteness, the appearance which the womb and the intestines presented after death. The latter protruded through a rent in the vagina, and the whole presented a lacerated appearance. He dno doubt that the de ceased died from the effect of the injuries in question. In his opinion these appearances,were not produced by . nature. It must have taken considerable force to produce the injuries as he found them on the post mortem examination. This was the case for the prosecution. At the desire of Mr. Justice INTIOTITMAN the witness, Ca therine Thornton was recalled, who proved in detail the man ner in which the prisoner Hawkins delivered deceased of her first child. Mr. CLARKSON' here submitted to the Court that there was no evidence to show that the deceased had come by her death by any negligence or want of skill on the part of the prisoner, but solely arose from natural causes. Mr. Justice WIGHTIVIAN was of opinion that thatwas a case for the jury. Mr. CLArucsoN accordingly addressed the jury for the de fence. He urged the want of evidence on the part of the prosecution, to substantiate the present charge, and called se'ieral witnesses, who proved that Mr. Hawkins' conduct on the melancholy occasion in question had been marked with all the skill of a careful practitioner. A number of ladies, w h om the prisoner had attended at their confinements, spoke in the highest terms of his uniform skill, care, and attention. One of these, a Frenchwoman, being unable to speak Eng lish, and their b e i ng no professional interpreter present, Signor Pino, a Moor, from Tangiers, who was seated on the bench, and who seemed to take a great interest in the proceedings of the Court, politely volunteered his services. Mr. O'BRIEN replied on the part of the prosecution, after which Mr. Justice IVlcinTatAN summed up the evidence, and the jury returned a vervict of Not Guilty. The verdict was received with marks of great approbatio by the friends of the prisoner assembled in the Court ; an the prisoner left the dock surrounded by his friends. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

G:orye.King, aged nine years, was charged as follows : Mrs. Veincan, a widow with a large family, living in Rath bone-place, stated that the prisoner was in the habit of pla3 ing with her children ; he was the son of a poor widow living in the neighbourhood. On Friday last he came crying to witness, and said he could not help doing so, as he was so very hungry, and that his mother had no food to give. She in consequence took him into her place, and gave him vic tuals, but while there it appeared he broke open the lock of a drawer with a fork, and stole a silk pocket-handkerchief of the value of between 4s. and ss. On Sunday afternoon last, during her absence from home, the prisoner managed to enter her apartment by forcing open the window, and carried off four silk handkerchiefs, a sheet, and other property; ho also regaled himself in the place by eating up a pound of moist sugar. Since then he had kept out of the way, but last evening the police succeeded in apprehending him. Mr. HARDWICK asked the prisoner what he had done with the stolen property.—He replied that he had pledged it at different pawnbrokers in the neighbourhood of St. Giles's, and had sold the duplicates afterwards. He was put up to " do the job" by another boy. A constable said the prisoner had committed several rob beries in the neighbourhood. He was remanded until Saturday next, in order to allow time to trace the property. LERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) John Welch was charged with assaulting a man, named Connor. Police-constable, 22 G—There is no complainant. Mr. GREENWOOD—Why ? Police -constable—I believe they have settled it. Mr, GREENWOOD—Why ? Policeman—l believe the pri soner gave the complainant something. Mr. GREENWOOD—This really must not be tolerated. Let the complainant be brought in. The complainant and his wife came into Court, when, upon being interrogated by the magistrate, they admitted having abandoned the charge, the prisoner promising to give them. some drink at a public-house near the Court. Mr. GREENWOOD--Are you in the habit of doing these things 2—The complainant said he had done so before. Mr. GREENWOOD said it was a scandalous thing to com promise an offence upon such terms ; and the parties might as well know that they subjected themselves to two years' imprisonment for so doing. John Wilson was charged with the following misconduct at the house of Mr. James Livey, a colleeshop-keeper, resid ing in 68, High-street, Camden-town. The prisoner went into the coffee-shop on the previous evening, and as his conduct was not decorous, Mr. Livey told him to walk out ; he refused, and when Mr. Livey insisted upon his doing so struck him on the head, and, stooping down, attempted to throw him head over heels. A police man came in, and he was apprehended. The prisoner was, in default of fine, sentenced to five days' mprisonment. REGISTRATION COURTS. (THIS DAY.) CITY OF LONDON. The REVISING BARRISTER this day decided that he had the power of correcting any errors in the description given of a claimant. This decision will have the effect of placing upon the register a great number of livery-men who were supposed to be disqualified. BANK OF ENGLAND. (TMS DAY.) _ _ _ A general Court of Proprietors of the Bank of England was held this day in the Bank parlour. The attendance of Proprietors was not numerous. The chair was taken by the Governor, Mr. Heath, at twelve o'clock precisely. The SECRETARY read the advertisement convening the meeting. The GOVERNOR said he had much pleasure in meeting the Proprietors on the present occasion, and he was happy to say, that the Directors, after a careful examination of the Bank accounts, felt justified in recommending to the Court of Proprietors that a dividend of three and a half per cent. on the capital stock of the Company should be declared, deducting therefrom 7d. in the pound for the income-tax. The accounts, as the:Proprietors would see were now made up differently from the system on which they had heretofore been kept. Instead of calculating by anticipation, as to what the real and profitable results might be, they were now settled from ascertained data, and as the Bank books showed them to be on the 28th,of February, and the 31st of August, respectively. The state of the accounts for the last half year were in a high degree satisfactory. After paying a dividend of 3% per cent., and after deducting the income-tax, which amounted to 14,824/. 3s. 4d., there would be carried to the Rest a balance of 15,353/. 14s. and Bd., which would make the total amount of the Rest 3,094,378/. lls. 4d. In making this announce ment he begged to remind the Court of Proprietors that nothing was carried to their account thatewas not absolutely realized. A PROPRIETOR said that, after the satifactory statement which was made in March last, and the flourishing condition of the Bank since that time, he had been in hopes—and he was not the only one that indulged in the expectation—that they should this day have a dividend of 4 per cent.—(Hear, hear.) The GOVERNOR said that it would be very satisfactory to the Directors if they could announce a dividend of 4, or even per cent. But it should be recollected that the price of money in the market was very low. He thought the Pro prietors might concur in the satisfaction of the Directors that they were able to state such a result. Mr. CLARKE ( a Proprietor) said that although it would be more agreeable to the Proprietors to receive a larger dividend, they should bear in mind that the Directors were the best judges of what might conducive to the interests of the Com pany. Leaving everything to their discretion, he was sure that the Directors would act best for the interests of the Com pany in giving them a small dividend.— (Hear and a laugh. ) In answer to a Proprietor, The GOVERNOR said .that the idea of a western branch in the metropolis had been spoken of, but nothing determinate had been resolved on. The Hon. Gentleman made some fur ther observations, but in so low a tone that their purport could not be collected by the reporters. The Court then rose. DUTCH AND FLANDERS MAIL. DIE HAGUE, SErr. 15.—The disease which has attacked the potatoes in a great part of the kingdom has attracted the attention of the Government. It has induced an inquiry into the causes and the character of the disease, and the means of preventing a rise in the prices of articles ("subsistence. The Stoats Courant published a royal ordinance, dated the 14th of September, stating the measures taken by the Govern ment for the importation of articles of food : " We, William IL, &c.'ef,c., seeing Article 2 of the law of 9th June, 1845 ; . _ _ " Having taken into consideration the unfavourable pros pect of the crop of potatoes, which are one of the principal articles of food for the most numerous class ; and that the general interest, as well as that of the commerce and manu factures of the country, requires that we should prevent by all possible means a rise in the price of provisions ; " Having likewise taken into consideration that in thin respect the Government should take no other measures than such as may tend to encourage as much as possible the im portation of provisions for the working classes ; " On the report of our Minister of Finance, of the 9th of September, 1845, Having consulted with our Minister of the Interior, with advice of our Council of State, " Have decreed and decree—. " ArL 1. From the 15th of_ September, the import duties on the following articles are :-- "Potatoes, 5 cents. per 10 mudi. " Barley, 1 cent. per 1001bs. " Rice, 1 cent. per 1001bs. " Beans, Peas, and Lentils, 10 cents per last. " Groats and Pearl Barley, 3 florins per 1001bs. "Flour, 5 florins per 1001bs. " This scale is fixed on all parcels of these articles, which shall be declared on importation on and after the 15th of September. Art. 2. We shall propose to the States General in the next session the necessary measures to give legal validity to the regulations of Article 1 of the present decree, and also to fix till the Ist of June, 1846, or later if it shall be judged necessary, the import duty on Rye and Buck Wheat, at the rate fixed for the present month of September, of 15 cents per mudd,' and o n Wheat and Rye, for the same period, at 25 and 10 cents per mudd on the minimum of the duties fixed on these kinds of grain, by the law of 29th De.. .cember, 1834. " Our Minister of Finance is charged with the executions of the present decree, which is to be inserted in the bulletus of the law, and copies sent to our Minister of the Interior and to the Council of State." ( • Mudd is about four English bushels. This reduction its the duties is very considerable. By the tariff now suspendcd they are on potatoes 5 cents. per mudd ; on barley and ricer 30 cents. per 1001bs. ; on beans 7% florins per last ; on, groats, &c., 10 flubs jper 100Ibs. ; on wheat, rye, and flour 20 florins per 1001bs, and on potato-flourlo florins per 1001bs. The Staats Courant has a very long article on the subject ; it states that the produce in 1843 was 14,662,571 muddy, and. in 1844, 13,552,030 muddy ; and that from the return already made, it seems probable that two-thirds, if no 4 three-fourths, of the crop are spoiled by the disease. It is believed that the crops of rye, wheat, barley, buck.. wheat, beans, and peas, will, on the. whole, not fall short of those of last year.

Inuit% yllll, LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1345. But few days have elapsed since we announced the aposta tizing of the Rev. Mr. WARD from the Church of England to the Romish Church—and, as we yesterday announced, " rumour is busy with her thousand tongues" in indicating new desertions: from the Protestant fold to the congregation of Catholicism. We have no desire to lock the gates upon those who wish to leave us. Our wish is, on the contrary, to open them wide for all intending renegades. We say to them, "Depart in peace, if conscientious convic tions call you. Return no more, if conscientious convic tions do not prompt you." In the meantime the flock of the Church is far better without these erratic stragglers. Their example can only mislead, their presence can but dis quiet those among whom they have been reared. But what to say to the pastors who have taught them these habits, or driven them to this; necessity of abandoning their fellows, we know not. All that is apparent to us is— that they are indeed false shepherds, who have be trayed their trust, but whether only from foolishness, or with motives and designs more questionable, we wil: not take upon ourselves to determine. The new Puseyite controversy which has arisen between the parishioners of New Shoreham, near Brighton, and their vicar, has just been followed by a remonstrance from the former to their diocesan, the Bishop of CHICHESTER. The conduct of the Bishops, who are ",pro-Puseyites," is, in our apprehension, more dangerous and less honest than the con duct of ministers who are, avowedly, Puseyites. The latter are, at least, intelligible and straightforward in their avowals of doctrine and opinions. Even Mr. WARD himself spoke out honestly, at least, albeit very tardily. He avowed himself, from the ill - A, a convert to the Tractarian sequel and This was a very natural ma. fined convert tunately, commenced—openly, if mated. The Bishop of EXETER adopted a. iiiThrent course. He twisted and twirled the question of Puseyite innovations with all the casuistry of which he is so accomplished a master until it was most difficult to get at what his own view of it really was. But though, like CA TILINE, unrivalled in the dangerous art " simulare et dissimulare,"—he could not long dissemble his own nature when stimulated by the opposition and sar casm which his coquetting with the Scarlet Lady did not fail to provke. He got exasperated. This was natural enough in a prelate of his easy temper When exasperated he gave full vent to his prepossessions for Puseyism on the one hand, and for theological denunciations on the other. This was not only natural, but a necessity of his temperament. But the scolding bishop did not conclude as Mr. WARD did, by making submission to and throwing himself into the arms of the Church of Rome. He had from ten to twelve thousand good reasons for every year against any such excessive sacrifice to impulse ; and he has retired, for' awhile at any rate, from the Pusey controversy, vanquished and compelled to notify the fact of his being restrained by the superior authorities of the Church to his own clergy; But we are sorry to be compelled to infer from the very able letter of Mr. Churchwarden CLAYTON to the Bishop of CHICHESTER, which we yesterday published, that the see of that ancient city is filled by a determined fol lower of HENRY of EXETER. The former, with all the bland amiability of the latter, seems to have taken offence with the parishioners of New Shoreham for addressing their re spectful remonstrances to him against the introduction by their new vicar, a Mr. WHEELER, of the Tractarian school's innovations of ceremonial and ritual. The case of Mr. WHEELER'S Puseyism was so flagrant, that the Right Reverend Prelate could not but rebuke him. But to compensate the vicar, his Lordship has thought proper to vapulate his querulous congregation, by significantly quoting to them certain passages in condemnation of "strife and vain glory." The parishioners, through their churchwarden, very reasonably assume that this gentle hint is intended for themselves—a caustic rebuke for having presumed to im peach either the discretion or the orthodoxy of their pastor. This letter, with the signature of the churchwarden, is most honourable to them as Christians and Protestants. As pole mical controversialists it reflects upon them signal credit. They express their sentiments with a moderation and a firmness, a felicity of expression and a vigour of illustration that are worthy of TAYLOR or BAXTER, the racy JORTIN or the acute BUTLER. Having so recently printed Mr. CLAYTON'S epistle to the Bishop, we do not here more in detail refer to it; but it deserves to be long remembered as a model of the temper, tone, and even the language, of which certain right reverend correspondents might study with advantage. But we cannot abstain from asking what it is that this infatuated affection for the distasteful Popish re vivals (we will, for the sake of the argument, call them by no harsher name) proposes to accomplish? Is it the introduction of forms which they conceive to be es sentials ? The answer is, that the Protestant laity of this country regard them as theatrical and empty mummeries. Do the Puseyites change their ground, and urge that those forms are in themselves indifferent, but proper to the due and decorous celebration of Divine worship ? Will they persist in upholding them when they find that the observance of these forms disgusts the frequenters and assistants at that worship itself? Are they mad enough to cling to a prescribed pantomime of religious action, which has no more reference to the holy and imperishable, the spiritual and intellectual truths of Christianity than the old dramatic "mysteries" and pageants of the Roman Church in this country in the dark and middle ages ;—to cling to outward ceremonials like :those of the irretrievable and guilty cost of making vacant the Protestant temple itself ? Of withdrawing, for the sake of their human inventions, the true worshippers of the living GOD and the REDEEMER from the simple altars at which they were received into the Chris tian community, of which their fathers, for many past gene rations, had also been members ? In sober truth, the guilt of all this pertinacious wilfulness, exemplified in the mis chiefs it has already worked, and is so fatally calculated still to produce, in the defection of Protestant Christians from the pure faith and unpolluted worship of their ancestors, is one of the most grave offences against the cause of Divine Truth which the history of heresies has recorded for centuries past. ,ransition, fairly, if lamentably , t Accounts from Switzerland state that the deliberations of the Grand Council of Berne had been brought to a conclusion. On the 12th instant M. NEUHAUS summed up the proceedings in a speech of two hours duration. The proposition of the Executive Council was at last adopted dy a large majority, it being voted by 138 to 42, that the Grand Council approved of the principles developed in the report, or, in other words, approves of the policy of the majority of the Executive Coun cil, which has been protested against by the minority. The intelligence brought by the Dutch mail is important, and exhibits in a striking light the paternal character of the Government. A scarcity of provisions is apprehended in Holland from the failure of the potato crop and the cold, late harvest, and the KING, resolvedto provide in time against such a calamity, has, therefore, issued a royal decree reducing the import duties on flour, rice, beans, potatoes, and other neces sary articles of food. This Order in Council, which comes into operation immediately, announces that measures will be proposed in the ensuing session of the States General for the purpose of continuing till June, 1846, the minimum duty on wheat duty, barley, &0., aa tbatorminod by the law or Dec. 29, 1845. We have no wish to raise unnecessary alarm, but the ahnost universal failure of the potato crop in this country as well as the continent, and the present unfa vourable weather, and the doubtful quality of the new crops cannot fail to have their effects on prices. Holland is within a few hours sail of England, high prices in that country of course must be felt here, and the question arises—will our Government imitate the good example and issue au Order of Council in time to guard against the danger ? Madrid journals of the 10th have been received. They are occupied chiefly with the proceedings of the court-martial, the excitement caused by the conduct of the authorities in regard to the late outbreak, and absurd rumours of an inva sion from General ESPARTERO. Some of them state that English gold bad been plentifully distribUted among the in surgents, as well as 'the soldiers, and one of them (the Es panol) publishes a report that the ea-REGENT is about to leave England in a vessel-of-war, wich is to be followed by a steamer, carrying 25,600 stand of arms. " This news," says that journal, "is communicated to us from Lisbon, and is considered authentic." The Gazette states the real cause of the dissatisfaction excited by the new tax in these words :—" From the bad system in the collection which has hitherto been adopted, many have been able to avoid payment, and as they can no longer do so under the new arrangement, they have become dissatisfied." The capital was quiet, but considerable anxiety prevailed respecting the fate of the prisoners, whose conduct was under investigation before the court. martial. On the 10th some business was done on the Bourse, at the following prices :—Three per Cents., 32% Cash; Fives, 22% for Account. Certain of the Paris journals, from want of other topics, have been compelled to take their text from some articles in two London journals, respecting the visit of the QUEEN to Eu. According to one of these papers it was anything but a friendly visit. It was based on intrigue, and our simple minded QUEEN was inveigled to the Court of LOUIS PHI LIPPE solely for the purpose of giving her consent to the marriage of the Duke DE MONTPENSIER to the sister of the Queen of SPAIN. Two of the Freneh papers gravely reply to this charge, and one of them, the France, declares that such a marriage is impossible. " Spain," it says, "is now out of all diplomatic course with the Powers on the banks of the Rhine, and can only return into it by one means—that of a marriage between ISABELLA. and CHARLES VI. On this depends all her futu rity—on this depends her lasting tranquillity. All other combinations must fail. England may be ready to promote the interests of the Prince of Comma, and France those of the Duke DE MONTPENSIER; but Spain will never allow her destiny to be disposed of without her consent, and she has a horror of foreigners. Neither the Prince of COBURG nor the Duke DE MONTPENSIER will meet with any sympathy in Spain. The marriages of these Princes will have no other effect than that of uniting all parties against them, of hasten ing on the catastrophe, and they will go only to serve as escorts to the two Princesses, when the storm of revolution shall drive them precipitately out of their country." The papers contain the following accounts from Eu :—" On Sunday morning, between eleven and twelve, the KING, accompanied by Generals ATHALDT, GOURGAUD, and FRIANT, and the Prefect of the Seine Inferieure, took a walk in the town of Eu, and stopped on the place to see the National Guard, who had assembled for a religious ceremony at the church, file off. At two o'clock his MAJESTY left the Chateau a second time, accompanied by the Mayor and Deputy-Mayor of Eu, the Commandant of the National Guard, and some members of the Tribunal of Commerce, and took a walk near the mills of Mr. PACEHAM, but in consequence of the un favourable state of the weather, his MAJESTY returned to the Chateau by three o'clock." We subjoin additional extracts from the papers : " The Guetteur de St. Quentin states that the health of Prince Louis Napoleon is visibly declining. He is said to suffer severely from rheumatism. . Marshal Bugeaud arrived on the I Ith inst. at Toulouse from Soult berg, and that evening received the officers of the garrison, and on the following evening went to the theatre. On the 13th he left for Excideuil. The Emancipation of Toulouse states that the Governor- General announced that he should soon return to Algeria. " The Chargé d'Affaires of France at Hamburgh has just informed the Minister of Foreign Affairs that the last arrangements of the Government of Saxony relative to the navigation of the Elbe, having given rise to many remonstrances from the principal merchants and traders of Dresden, a society of capitalists, amongst whom are several Frenchmen, have funned a project for a railroad from Magde burgh to Wittenbergh, connected with the Hamburgh and Berlin Railroads. The Burgomaster of Magdeburgh is at the head of the Company, which has a capital of 4,500,000 thalers (16,195,000 f.) It is expected that this railroad will be opened at the end of next year. " A Lyons journal gives some details of the state of the fortifications of ithat city. The forts of Vitriolerie and Charpenees are almost fin shed. The bastioned wall between the fort of Loyasse and the barrier St. Georges will be finished in a few months. The heights of St. Foy have been strongly occupied, and a citadel of great strength is being constructed there. Montessuy has been also much strengthened. The second line of the same defence from the Rhbne to the Saone has been added to by the construction of formidable bastions along the old wall of the Croix-Rouses. A f,rt of large di mensions has been elevated on the heights of La Duchere. The whole of the works will be finished in 15 years, and will cost 50,000,000 f. " The Nouvelliste of Marseilles, publishes the following from Ve nice, Sept. 4.
