" A trial of con thierable interest to Life Assurance Offices and the public was concluded yesterday in the Court of Exchequer. The Eagle Company held a policy for an assurance of 5391. in the Albion Company as security for as advance, the payment of which policy was now disputed. by the Albion, on the ground that at the time it was effected the fact of the assured party having been a man of in temperate habits was concealed from the office. The chief evidence turtle I upon the q.O setter' as to the degree of intemperance that had been exhibited,.amt the result was, that a verdict was given against the resisting Milo!, not only fir the amount of the policy, hut also for 401. interest from. the date when it became due. - The circumstance of the action being brought by one office against another presents a striking illustratl on of the uncertainty which may attach to all po licies under the present system, and shows that the only mode by which absolute security can be obtained by the public must tie in the general adoption. by Assurance Offices of the plan of protening them selves in every by due inquiries before the ermtins f each po licy, and of aftorwards assuming the full responsibility or the com pleteness of sty 11 inquiries by holding themselves precluded from raising any fat , ire question. In the present case two offices are found to be dim ne trically opposed in their opinions as tc what can properly invalh lane a claim, and yet the public arc expected to be able to guare th.mnselves against such contingences. Similar cases have occurred b efore, and even if they were snore rare, they would seriously injure the progress of life assurance.

The journey being one of considerable difficulty much delay must necessarily transpire ere any relief can be rendered the wreck. Very trying weather has since set in, and the last accounts speak of her loss. With reference to the unfortunate circumstance of the yacht running ashore, the fact cannot he concealed that there appears to have been some want ofjudgment on the part of those on board of her. It is, however, said that the navigation of the Baltic at this period of the year, with a northerly wind, is attended with much difficulty, and that no fewer than from eight to ten vessels have been recently lost on or near the spot where this cliiastfous occurrence took pine.

Lat id—one for 5001. and the other tor 2601.—making together 7001., whi eh have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is c 'ip•ecially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life off ices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of 'Eaves assured between the Ist of June, 1: , 49, and the 31st of vi ay, 185 0, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months p receding.

Off the Cape of Good dope the Fury experienced one whole day's heavy w eather from the westward, but received no damage. On the 20th of September s'n , 3 fell in with the barque Victory, of Liverpool hound to the Cape, and to tried over to her the Cape mail, thus obviating the n ecessity of going in.

Nov. 14, passed the Engli ish schooner Rapid, of Ips wich, 22 days from Denit I, with raisins and almonds, for Bristol. In crossing the north-et let trades, the Fury, like the Cambrian and the Ma finer, recently arrived, has experienced unusual wind la, but not from the same quarter, the Fury being able to lay north-by-east, with topmast studdingsails. set, and having the wind frequently as far aft as sou tb-east. The Fury has brought h came Captain Moore, Royal Marines, and several seamen and marines invalided from the flip-ship Hosting a; two invalids, seamen, died on the home passage. The Fury has been 470 hours under steam; she sailed from Singapore wit 400 tons coal on board, has coaled nowhere aince, (Ina had four tons remaining on arrival. While on the East Ind station, where she was chiefly engaged, the Fury b.as been in active employ ment, having steamed and .sailed upwards of 70,000 miles during her conunissiott (20th July, 1847). The crew of the Fury have been healthy through out, and has had scarcely my change of officers, and no courts-martial or courts of inquiry. After coaling in Ilatneaze, she proceeds to Portsea. _ _ Her Majesty's ship Hastings, 72, Rear-Admiral Charles J. Austen, Commander-in-Chief, Captain Francis W. Austen, was at Penang, which she was to lave in the beginning of October for Hong-Kong. Her Majesty's brig Conteut, 12, Commander Hon. J. Spencer, arrived at Singapore on the 27th of July. She took two slavers on her passage out from England. Her Majesty's steam-vessel Sphynx, 6, Commander C. Shadwell, sailed from Singapore on the 11th of August for Siam, where she was to join the Nemesis steam-ship, when Sir Jammu Brook, the Raja, in tended to make an effort to restore to its former foot ing the trade between the inhabitants of the Western World and the Siamese, which had recently dimi nished almost to extinction, in consequence of the in• fringement by the latter of former treaties. The Americans have been treating with'them for the same purpose, and it is stated that the Siamese authorities, in answer to their proposals, said ;that they knew of no such nation as the Americams, and did not believe that such a nation existed, and thist they could only speak through the English. This opinion is supposed to have been confirmed in the rnirssls of the Ministe rial authorities at Siam, from the ci'rcumstance of the pfficial American documents having had attached to theca seals of comparatively insign;ificant appearance compared to those which had bee; - 1 previously pre sented from the same nation.

The powder is to be taken out here and put into store at the Royal Arsenal for safety, and she will then proceed to Black wall to have her new boilers put on board in the East India Docks.

The Fury steam•sloop, Captain Willcox, arrived to day at Portsmouth from China and the East Indies. This vessel performed valuable service against the pirates in the Chinese seas. DANGERS OF CHANNEL NAVIGATION. SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 18.—A very important do cument bar just been published, compiled by Mr. J. Young, of the Underwriters' room at Lloyd's, giving a list of wrecks and casualties to shipping which have been officially reported to have occurred between Dun geness and London during a period of 18 months, from January 1849 to June 1850, inclusive. To each casualty is affixed the extent of damage sus tained, such estimate of damage being derived from official documents at Lloyd's, or estimated as nearly as could be ascertained. Although the total extent is impossible to be arrived at with anything like !preci sion, from the fact that numerous vessels w:tii all on board are annually cast away upon the Goodwin and adjacent sands, yet the result arrived at by Mr. Young's valuable pamphlet is, that during the 18 months in question the amount of property destroyed by known wrecks and casualties, is between 400,0001. and 500,0001, besides the sacrifice of a great number of lives. The object of the compiler of this list is to show the enormous annual destruc tion of property occasioned by the dangers of navigation between the Isle of Wight and the Thames, and which would be avoided by home ward-bound ships discharging in the Southampton docks, besides the saving that would be effected in the rate of insurance ' time occupied between the island and London, and the extra cost of wages, provisions, and incidental expenses. It is a remarkable fact that few wrecks ever take place in that part of the British Channel to the southward of the Wight, but that the real dangers of the voyage commence after passing the back of the island to proceed to the Thames. To the document alluded to is subjoiced an abstract of the loss of shipping and of life, between the Isle of Wight and London, for the seven years from 1837 to 1843 inclusive, by which it appears that during that p , riod 499 vessels lost anchors and cables, were par tially dismasted by bad weather or being run foul of, or sustained other damage ; 560 vessels took the ground, but were got off again; '260 vessels entirely wrecked or foundered, of which the crews and passen gers were saved; 56 vessels were totally lost, with all or several of tho crews or passengers; the total number of casualties being 1;375. Amongst the ships lost in 1842 and 1843 were those splendid Indiamen, the Reliance and the Conqueror, nearly every soul on board of which, amounting to little short of 200, perished. In the latter year the ship gurhampouter, with emigrants from London for New South Wales, was, a few hours after leaving the Thames, utterly wrecked near Margate, on which occasion the people on board had a hairbreadth escape with their lives, losing all the property they had. The loss of the Amphitrite is also too recent to be forgotten ; she was riding at anchor in the Downs, was driven out by violent weather, and totally wrecked near Bou logne; she had on board nearly 200 female convicts, bound to Australia, all of whom, with the whole of the crew, were drowned, and the vessel scattered in fragments on the shore. During the first six months of 1850 it appears that no less than eight vessels have been lost between London and the Wight, with all on board ; and the number of lives so sacrificed is estimated at little short of 500. StoSl.Ann' SouSneTeEtAhalltl-tYheA splendid steam- We regret liU yacht called the Peterhoff, which • was built in this country a few months since, expressly for the Em peror of Russia, and which excited so much admira tion while lying in the river, has . been entirely lost on her passage out to St. Petersbur of which appeared in our paper of (a short d account Peterhoff was of iron construction, builtyeeter. )lll.The by Mr. are, of Black wall, from whose yard the Fairy, her Abjesty's yacht, was launched. She was nearly den, and was fitted with -' en b ines of 140- horse power. Her internal arrangements wereof the character, and no expense was spared in equipping . her for the service of the Emperor. The b tra r ns b mission o the unfortunate yacht to Sr. Pe , ters u . g was en trusted to an eminent firm on Cornhill, who took every care to supply her with an efficient crew. A master mariner, Mr. James Boniland, who had been employed in the Baltic for the last twenty-four years, was appointed to take crew being selected from men who bad been trading in that sea. Some five or six weeks ago she took her departure from the Thames, having on board, in addition to her crew, Mr. George Rennie, the engineer, and Mr. Waterman, jun., who designed the yacht, and who, we understand, was charged with its delivery to the Emperor, with Mr. Eschappar and one or two other gentlemen. She reached Copenhagen in safety, and having taken on board two ladies attached to the e mbassy there for conveyance to Revel, she resumed her trip on the 22d ult. Having proceeded by Bornholm, and sighting the Arohimede, one of the Prussian Government steamers, which had gone ashore a f e w days previously on the island, and Gottlend, she pursued a north-east course up the Baltic. They then experienced very severe weather. At times the wind blew almost a perfect hurricane from the northward, which had the effect of driving down with much force the waters from Bothnia and the Gulf of Finland—a circum stance which would tend to render the navigation of the Peterhoff more than ordinarily difficult. From all the accounts received the yacht seems to have laboured tremendously. The crew, however, suc ceeded in keeping her head to sea, but CO heavy was the swell that it broke over on to her deck, and the greatest difficulty was experienced in preventing the fires from being extinguished. The exact course she was pursuing at this period (the evening of the 24th) has not been correctly ascertained, but it was evident she was making for the island of Dago, which is abreast of the entrance of the Gulf of Finland. A se. light was observed, which the master is supposed to have thought was on Dago. The steamer proceeded, and at about half. past ten o'clock at night she struck, and was half her length up a shallow reef of rocks. The shock is described to have been exceedingly severe. Fortunately the weather had moderated to almost a perfect calm, and but for that merciful interposition every soul on board would have perished. The rocks having penetrated the bottom of the yacht, it was quickly seen she was fast filling. The boats were launched with the view of effecting a landing, but the height and position of the rocks entirely prevented them. In the meanwhile the water gained rapidly in the hull of the wreck, and it was not long before it was level with the sea. Happily for the lives of those on board, the steamer held her position on the reef, and the crew having formed a kind of protection from the weather for the ladies in the upper part of the deck, they remained in a painful state of anxiety until the following morning. During the night rockets were fired every half hour, but no assistance came off to them. Daylight brought to them a knowledge of their real position. The steamer had struck on the island of Oesel, the master having unfor tunately mistaken its light for that of Dago, which was more than thirty miles distant. As soon as they were seen from the land three boats were dispatched to their relief, and the weather favouring their exer tions, the wreck was gained, and the whole of those on board were taken off. On reaching the shore every relief was afforded them, and it appearing in)- , possible to rescue the wreck with the weans then at The following letter from Mr. Waterman has been handed to 116 by Mr. Mare, and, as will be seen, con tains some aci.ditional and interesting details respect ing the unfortunate event : "St. Petersburgh Hotel, Revel, Oct. 31, 1850. " Sir,—lt is with regret I inform you of our misfor tune since we left Copenhagen, which we did on the 22d inst., at 5 P.M. We passed the Archimede, a Prussian steam-vessel that went ashore a few days ago on the island of Bornholm. We had no sooner left the island than it blew a perfect hurricane, and continued blowing until the morning of the 24th ; in the evening it wad a perfect calm. We were thinking of going to bed about half-past tan o'clock, when we were etartled by a terrific rumbling noise. We immediately ran on deck, when to our horror we found the Peterhoff half her length up a shallow reef of rocks. She immediately began to fill end was not long before the water inside her was level with the sea. Unfortunately two ladies con nected with the Embassy at Copenhagen ac companied us with the intention of landing at this place. We attempted to effect a landing in the boats, but cuuld not succeed for the rocks, so we had to return to the Peterhoff, and remained until daylight, firing rockets every consecutive half.hour. At daylidht three boats came from the shore to our assistance. We immediately went with a portion of our luggage ashore to a gentleman's house, who very hospitably re ceived us. " We came to the conclusion that it would be impos sible to get the Peterhoff off without assistance, and there being none on the island, it was decided that Mr. Ronnie and myself should proceed by land to St. Peters burgh, and get the required assistance, leaving Mr. Es chapper in charge of the vessel. We have been travel ling dAy and night since, and only arrived here at 11 o'cicck last night—a distance of about 150 consequence of the bad roads and conveyance. A steam vessel leaves here for St. Petersburgh ou Sunday morn ing, the 2d of November. We intend going by her, as we should gain no time by travelling overland. " I am, &c., " T. WATERMAN." _ _ _ _ The loss of the yacht, it is said, will exceed 20,000 Z., but it is understood that she is insured for a large amount. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OT THIS DAY. TIMES.—The condition of the United States must needs be thought critical in the extreme by all who are unacquainted with the expressions given to public opinion in that land of democratic indulgence ; and so extraordinary, indeed, has been the character re cently assumed by some of these ebullitions, that it requires more than common discernment to detect the true current of popular convictions in the deluge of declamation, bombast, and blarney with which the great question of the day has been overwhelmed. The reader will recollect the persuasions which dictated the adoption of the Fugitive Slave Bill, in deference to the prejudices, if not the interests, of the Southern States of the Union, and he will have observed in these columns, from time to time, with what outrage ous clamour this measure has been received. So great, however, is now the sensation, either real or protracted, that the rallying cries of the contending parties are, without disguise, " Union" and " Dis union"—the very constitution of the States being threatened with deliberate destruction in a contest for ascendancy on a point of domestic policy. The issue raised, in fact, has been exactly that tried by the French Republicans. A question has been decided by law, and the conduct of every citizen, under cere tain conditione, has been presceibed by that authority to which universal obedience is nominally due. I The French malcontents exalted their private con victions above the law by w . aat they termed pa ramount and inherent rights of free citizenship, and they effected a revolution of which the result was to place the majority of the nation in that very predi cament which the minority had resented as intoler able. The Americans have no w arrived, if we may trust their own language, at a similar crisis. A large portion of the population professes to consider the Fugitive Slave Bill as repugnant to some indestructi ble right antecedent to recorded law, and they are acting just like the insurgents of February, with merely the variation of action suggested by the dif ference of the two Constitutions. The Americans have no King to terrify, and no Tuileries to storm, and though it seems not impossible they may have a [lugeaud or Changarnier to encounter, they are at present confining their agitation to the spacious chan nels provided by the constitution. Here, however, they boldly avow reso:utions drawn from the cardi nal doctrines of M. Louis Blanc and his school; they declare their intention of resisting law by force, or propose, as the single alternative, the dissolution of the Union into so many independent States as differ ence of opinion may require. It is stated, and we believe with substantial truth, that the law cannot be executed in any city of all the North, excepting New York ; and the inhabitants, therefore, of this capital seaport have just assembled at a monster meet ing to signalize and record their conspicuous allegiance to the established powers. If we could give literal credence to all that is reported of the extraordinary proceedings, we might perhaps acknowledge that pacific and voluntary dis union would really be the best expedient in a contest of opinions so violent as this has been represented ; hut, in point of fact, what with the national turn for hyperbola, the contingencies of democratic excitement, and the peculiar gifrs of Transatlantic journalism, so extravagant and grotesque is the exaggeration em ployed that the sober English reader lays down the paper without any mare definite conviction than that his American brethren are certainly the oddest people alive. The "tremendous and en th us i ast i c convent i on ," . as it termed, partook promiscuously of the character of an Eistedfodd, a vestry m ee ti ng , an election com mittee an open air conc er t, an d a se t t li ng d ay a t Tat tersall';;. Resolutions importing truths as deep as any illustrated by Bacon or M on t esqu i eu w er e pro pounded in language resembling that of the notifica tions headed " Canine," in a popular weekly contem porary ; " Old Hickory" was matched along with "Harry Clay," f o r any s t a k es th a t m i g ht b e forth coming; and the sentiments of patriotism were conveyed in metaphors so discordant and poetry so atrocious that even a well mean ing citizen might be driven into the ranks of insur rection by the instincts of good taste and grammar. Nothing but the phraseology of a new Romish " pastoral" can give the reader an idea of the terms in which the American eagle, his talons, his beak, his 1 pinions, his flight, and his destiny were apostrophized by these priests of the Oratory of " St. Tammany ;" for, as tie meeting was already of one accord, there remained no duty beyond that of declamation and protest. The upshot of the business was the ap pointment of a committee for the preservation of America, fifty citizens being nominated, with power to add to their numbers, on whose shoulders the national salvation of the United States was to de volve. By what means this council is to promote its objects we cannot pretend to determine; but, if we may venture upon an opinion in the face of so many bewildering allegations, we should be inclined to con clude that the danger is not so imminent, nor , the conflict so real, as appearances might be thought to betoken. It is true that one Governor of a state has virtually proclaimed rebellion, and another has set aside the annual thanksgiving-day for the inde pendence of the union, while the officers of justice are everywhere threatened with violence in the execution of their duties. For all this, however, we do not think the disruption of the Union at hand, nor do we contemplate with any great appre hension the atleged probabilities of an event which no civilized Power could witness with indifference. There can be no doubt that the anti-slavery feeling will ultimately preponderate in the States to the ex tinction of Southern institutions; but the question will not be carried by the violence of the present agi tators. Under existing c ircumstances the south, in addition to its own resources, has the unhesitating support of all who respect the law—a class which we cannot conceive to form a small if proportion of Ameri can citizens. It is probable, indeed, that th e ob noxious measure, espec i a ll y maliciously enforced, may create local tumults and even provoke armed op position; but, in such cases, we are plainly told that the regular troops will be employed in aid of the ma gistracy, and we are convinced that the predominant impulse of the population will tend in the same direc tion. It cannot, indeed, escape the observation of so intelligent a people that the true question now at issue concerns no longer the institutions of slavery, but the _authority of the law, and, with this authority, the maintenance of a regular Go vernment. It is the same question which two y e ars ago was decided, in different ways, at Paris on the 24th of February, and in England on the 10th of April. It is a question whether a section of the people, dissatisfied with the conclusions of the rest, Luny ) 3ticcessfully Appeal to violence; for it is clear, that if the law can be thus set aside upon this point it can be sot aside upon all. Mr. Webster, in a manifesto which was vociferously cheered at the meeting, enounced these principles to his countrymen with uncompromising vigour and perspicuity. We might, perhaps, be permitted to doubt whether the motives actuating the Assembly were in all cases so disinterested as in that of this distinguished states. man ; but, even allowing for the less noble feelings which will always tend to sway a popular decision, and certainly not leas in America than elsewhere, we cannot apprehend that the result would be otherwise than, generally favourable to the cause of order. The " Unionists" will have popularity as well as right on their side; all the mottoes, watchwords, and traditions of the States, all the sayings of patriots, and all the maxims of the constitu tion being for them only. Besides this, the principle of unity is essentially the democratic one and it would be almost a contradiction of terms to advocate Republicanism and divisibility in the same breath. The " Disunionists" have no definite scheme to propound, and even those who now gesticulate and mouth in behalf of local independence would shrink from the reality of carving up a State fabric which every adult American has been for years upholding as the unapproachable masterpiece of human wisdom. For these reasons we anticipate no such perils as - those which alarmed "the Empire City in Council ;" hut prudence, we think, will suggest to the Supreme Go-. vertu - rent of the States some timely modification of a measure fatally calculated to create disaffection and riot. It is less in the principle than iu the execution that the Fugitive Slave Bill is so unpopular, for its operation is precisely of that kind which brings home to men by individual examples under their own eyes facts which, theoretically considered, would produce little or no effect. These examples, too, are constantly recurring, and we cannot be surprised if acts which outrage common sensibility should cause reaction and revolt, though performed in the name of justice. HE R ALD.—Mr. George Bowyer has very promptly produced his pamphlet " by authority" in defence of " the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster and the New Hierarchy." It is written in the most plausible tone of candour and humility. But the fallacy on which it wholly rests is thus set forth : "To say that the Roman Catholic Church is not il legal in her Majesty's dominions, and yet that a fun damental necessary doctrine of that Church is illegal, would be a gross and monstrous contradiction. If we are not allowed by law to hold a doctrine, without which we should cease to be Roman Catholics, it ob viously and inevitably follows that the law does not permit e;t U 3 to he Roman Catholics at all. Which is ".• absurd. Persecute us, drive us out of the realm alto gether, and into perpetual banishment, but do not bold out to us the delusive phantom of en apparent toleration, and then deny us the liberty to hold that doctrine on which the very existence of our Church, a , the Catholic Church, built upon the rock of Peter, and bound to his successor the supreme head and centre of unity on earth, most undeniably depends." In consenting, then, to lift the ban from off the heads of the Romanists, and to raise them to an equality with ourselves, we have admitted, according to Mr. Bowyer, that they hold no anti social or dangerous doctrine. We have placed our selves in a position which renders it impossible for us to deny hereafter the salubrity of their system. So says their apologist, and, if he speaks truly, then are we in a strange position. For see what his posi tion leads us to :—The " fundamental doctrines" of the Church of Rome—which doctrine, says Mr. Bowyer, we are not now at liberty to impugn by Eta tote, are such as these : " 'rho Du!! In (.7nrzm SaNCi37l2 states ; " Both swords are, therefore, in the power of the Church, viz., the spiritual sword and the material sword. Bea the one is to be exercised for the Church, the other by the Clinrch, that i,, the property of the priest in the hands of kings and soldiers, but at the nod and sufforence of the priest.' " Moreover, we declare, affirm, define., and pronounce, that it is altogether a mater of necessity of Fal vati o for every lrainau cre..t. , 2.re to be subject to the Roman Pontiff.' " Delahogue in his treatise on the Church,—a class book at Msynooth:— " The Church retains her jurisdiction over all apos tates, heretics, and schismatics, althongli they do not now belong to her body, as the commander of an army has the right of decreeing more severe punishments against the deserter who has left hii ranks.' " Devoti, on the Canon Laws, sec. 1, vol. iv.:— " All who dissent from Catholic truth are not to be tolerated among Catholics.' " AmGeg our Catholics it is certain and fixed that men are not to be tolerated who arc slices from the Catholic verity, and that they are also to b© coerced by merited punishments; and this is demonstrated at length by Sam ez, Bellarmine, .Ilottensis, De Castro, Pa melius: " Devoti quotes Thomas Aquinas (called the Angeli cal Doctor). Secunda Sccundre. Quest. ii., art. 3:— " Whether heretics are to be - tolerated ? About heretics two things ate to be considered. One, indeed, on the part of themselves; another on the part of the Church. On their part is their rin, by which they have deserved not only to b 3 separated from the Church by excommunication, but even to be put from the world by death. Wherefore if forgers of money or other male factors are immediately and justly put to death by se cular princes, much more heretics, as soon as they orb convicted of heresy, can not only be immediately excom municated, but also be justly slain. If he is still found obstinate, and the Church, no longer hoping for his con version, provides for the safety of others, by separating him from the Church by sentence of excommunication, and farther leaves him to the secular tribunal to be ex terminated from the world by death.' " These passages are quoted in Dens' Theology' as authority for putting heretics to death. " Reiffvustucl:— " And, first, as to impenitent heretics; that is, those that are unwilling to convert themselves, but persevering obstinately in their heresy, are to be put to death, whe ther they be laity or clergy.' " Let those condemned by the Church be left to the secular power to be pueished with deserved penalty, the clergy being first degraded from their orders. (He quotes the canon law and ordinance of Charles V., 1540, by which) Impenitent heretics are to be burned, but penitent heretics to be slain by the sword. To which is added custom, the best interpreter of the leer, by which it appears that impenitent heretics are to be burned with fire; in ease their mouth ought to be bound up lest they should scandalise the weak with their blis phemies, as Faranacius well remarks, having cited many examples.' " Bellarmiue (Cardinal). " If you threaten them with pecuniary fine they neither fear God nor regard man, knowing that there will not be wanting fools who believe them, and by whom they will be maintained if you put them in prison or banish them, they corrupt their neighbours with words, and those who are at a distance, with books; therefore, the only remedy is to send them speedily to their own place.' " 12th General Council, 4th of the Lateran, A.D. 1215. Innocent 111. Pope Honorius embodied this canon in the law proclaimed at the coronation of Fre derick 11. 1220. Gregory IX., in 1230, embodied it in his decretals. It has continued the law of the lioraish Church since. " We excommunicate and anathematize every heresy which exalteth itself against this holy orthodox and Catholic faith which we have set forth above, condemn ing all heretics by whatsoever names they may be recog nised, who have indeed diverse faces, but their tails are bound together, for they make agreement in the same folly.' " If any temporal lord being required and ad monished by the Church, shall neglect to cleanse his country of this heretical filth, let him be bound with the chain of excommunication by the metropolitan and other co-provincial bishops. And if he shall scorn to make satisfaction within a year, let this be signified to the Supreme Pontiff, that henceforth he may declare his vassals to be absolved from their fidelity to him, and ex pose his land to be occupied by Catholics, who having exterminated the heretics, may without contradiction possess it._ _ " But let the Catholics, who having takes the sign of the cross, have girded themselves for the ext , -rmination of heretics, enjoy the same indulgence and be armed with the same privilege as i s conce d e d t o t h ose w h o go to the assistance of the Holy Land.' " Such aro the laws and canons of Rome. She boasts that she is semper eadein. They form the standard and rules of Msynooth this day." We are aware that the common exclamation of adroit Roman casuists, when we quote these canons, is—" Oh! those musty old canons,—what is the use of disinterring them at this time of day ?" But we showed, only a day or two since, that the very same . doctrines are taught, even to children, bo?ks writ ten and published by Roman Catholics in this year of our Lord 1850. Mr. Bowyer, of course, takes shelter under the usual subterfuge, " Supremacy only in spi ritual things." But he who rules in spiritual things must overrule him or her who rules only in "tem poral things." Hence we find that— " At a dinner given last week by the Roman Catholic inhabitants of Enniskillen to Dr, MacNally, Lord Bishop of Clogher,' where fifty of the leading Catholics' of the locality assembled, the chairman, a Mr. James Creden, a merchant, proposed, we are informed, his first toust in the following terms:— " Gentlemen,—The first toast on my list is one that will frighten my extra-loyal neighbours; but the spiri tual allegiance we owe is greater than any other alle giance. I therefore, without any further comment, pro pose to you our Most Holy Father the Pope;' and in all sincerity I pray that his reign may be long and glo rious.' " Another specimen of the same kind comes to us from Scotland. Dr. Gillis, who is to be the new " Archbishop of Edinburgh," preached at Dumfries last Su l y week, and the Dumfries Courier gives l the following account of his sermon : " The lecturer began by stating that 300 years ago this bad been a Catholic country, in which the established religious forms had been the same as they had that day witnessed. Then, for the sins of some, and the trial of others, what was called the Reformation had come; the property of the Church was seized by the Crown, and gifted to its nobility; and the stake, the gibbet, and exile, became the portion of its faithtul adhe rents. Notwithstanding all this, the Catholics had continued to increase, until from thousands they were numbered by m illi ons . R e f err in g to the new hie rarchical arrangement, he alluded to the letter of the Premier to the Bishop of Durham, and to the phrase in it, ' our Reformation,' contrasting at con siderable length the contrarieties and contradictions of Protestant doctrine with the uniformity which in all ages and countries distinguished the Catholic faith. In referring to the doctrines of the English Church as to baptism, the rev. lecturer made pointed allasicn to the manner in which, from dissension on that topic, so many of the Anglican clergy were dropping off into the bosom of the Church. Reverting to the suspected in'entions of the Government in cpposition to the Papal hull, he broadly pointed to the icterference of the Catholic powers of the Continent, should Government fits, mpt opposition to the rights of his Church—a most ill-ad vised expression, and one that has excited strong feelings of disapprobetion; and closed a discourse of upwards of an hour's duration with a glowing peroration, in which, looking firisard to the time when the British empire would be numbered with the things that were, and its sceptre in the dust, he declared that ' glorious Rome' would still maintain hee pre-eminence among the nations." Truly he must be wilfully blind who can close his eyes to the fact that the two powers, the Papacy and the British Sovereignty in its present Protestant hands, rust necessarily be rival and hostile powers. And hence it follows, that to give this natural enemy a legal footing—a recognised church establishment in these realms.—would be little less than an act of suicide. In truth, the whole question is resolved, in the clearest and fairest manner, in the closing sen tences of Mr. Binney's late address, which we gave about a fortnight back. And let it always be re membered that Air. Binney, a Protestant Dissenter, is a " Liberal" of the first water. To everything in trinsically bigotted or intolerant he is constitutionally, and from long habit, opposed. Yet he thus wrote— " It may be easy to argue against national establish ments and the royal supremacy ; the demonstration may be complete of the impropriety of secular legis lation in religion, and in favour of unrestricted reli gious liberty ; that the law should know no man in his religious character ; and that all religious bodies should be treated by the state equally and alike, and every Church have a clear stage and no favour. So far as Popery is concerned, ' I am beginning to be suspicious of carrying this theory practically out ; not, indeed, because the theory is itself erroneous, but because Popery is not a thing to which it can be applied. Popery is not simply and purely a religion ; it is a great and mighty ecclesiase tical confederacy that aims at and desires political pre-eminence ; it is a terrible compact, almost phy sical unity, animated by a spirit of intense hatred to real liberty, civil or religious. It requires to be held in check by law, not because its tenets are not true, but because its heart is not to be trusted ; not because its creed is a corruption of the faith, but because its tendencies are inimical to free dom ; not because it ' ignores' this or that Church, but because it is a power dangerous to the State. It willjoin the Dissenter in his theoretical reasoning when it is low; will applaud him for liberality in striving to gain for its own ' emancipation' when it wishes to rise ; will shout at times for ' religious liberty ', and the 'voluntary !principle;' will smile and bow, and take everything, it can, and look humble mo dest, and demure, as long as is necessary to gain its ends ; but when once gained, and any opportunity for a spring forward or upward opens, it will take either with both force and ferocity, and care not if it crush in its headlong career the simple souls that served it in its need!" DAILY NEWS.—Never has been a greater storm in the moral and religicus atmosphere. Never was seen such a mass of fiery and frowning clouds, dark with popular indignation, sending forth the vehement thunder of passion and the brilliant coruscation of awsksned and angry intellect. The entire sentiment of the nation has been forced into one mass, and all classes have descended to the same forum to complain, to lament, to vent indignation, and demand vengeance. From. the humble vestry to the lordly Cabinet, wher ever men congregate, they have been moved to take these greater matters into consideration, the threat of Rome to re-establish its domisaation over us, the trickery of weak and foolish men, who have awakened such hopes, and rendered possible such attempts. Men who stand in the first rank of authority and influence contemplate these great popular commotion' with different impressions. Some have said, this is too strong for us not to be of it, let us join and head it. Others in the very heat of going along with it have asked themselves, whither does it iead ? Does it not partake cf the religious intolerance, if not of the same, at least of an analogous kind to that which it resists ? Whilst some would make it an onslaught upon Rome, others would enlarge it into a crusade against all bishops. The Times, evidently seeking to divert indignation from domestic criminals, pro poses to get up an insurrection in Italy against the Pope, or at least to support the Piedmontese con stitutionalists in their opposition to him, which very constitutionalists the said Times so lately delighted and contributed in putting down. Others, on the contrary, consider that vengeance as well as charity should begin at home, and their proposed line of conduct would be to tie Wiseman and Phillpotts to the same stake, and burn them as victims to the liberty of religious opi nion. We are not afraid of the actual perpetration of any of these[extreme and angry acts. On the contrary, what we fear most is, that the zeal of the public will be so misled towards unattainable objects, and frittered away upon merely vindictive and useless ones, that the entire force of the re-action will b?, lost ; that, in consequence no one abuse will be removed, and not only Popery left, triumphant,:but its great workshops left in full activity of creation and of propagandism. The first effort of those interested for religious free dom and religious intellect should be to turn the pre sent movemeet to some great aim, some tangible ob ject. Without movements of this kind, without wise men taking advantage of them, nothing is ever done under our form of government, in which Ministers wait on the public even more than upon Provi dence. It is much to be feared that the present efforts of indignant , Protestantism are directed more against form than reality, more against the shield than against the body of its autago- Mats. Thus a crusade against Wiseman's title, against his wearing a red hat, or parti-coloured stockings, of what avail is it? Is this an object worthy of the eeal of a great nation ? If Cardinal Wiseman, by his ma nceuvres at Rome, and his arrogant assumption here, have got himself into the meshes of a statute—if his display of the barbarous latinity of Rome has brought him, like a fly into a spider's web, to be entangled in the equally barbarous latinity of our feudal lawyers, let the Roman priest and the English jurist fight out their ancient f-ud, since the former has thought proper to renew it. If the Archbishop gets himself installed by virtue of a papal bull, and has treasonable docu ments read during the ceremony, he falls, it is al leged, under the penalties of a prcemunire, which are very serious if the popular feeling be in clined to enforce them. If the Cardinal, though an Andalusian and alien, has come to exercise legatine or other authority in this country, the mere fact of his birth will no doubt:enabls the Government t• eject him. Bat this personal quarrel, in dealing with Wiseman, is in our opinion a very minor matter. For every casuistical or legal argument we use, the Pope, we may depend upon it, will find another. To find such argument is his Holiness's trade, and, thank Heaven, it is not ours. Then for every personal blow we strike, Rome will parry one and deal an other. And this bout of polemical single-stick may go on for a very long time, during which the Pope will not be the first tired out. If we can reject a learned Wiseman for an archbishop, because he is an alien, Pius IX. may translate the anti-Copernican Cullen to Westminster, and inflict the greatest plague of Egypt on this country, by the introduction to it of a whole host of episcopal M'Hales. By personal vin dictiveness directed against the Pope's agents we shall in fact do little. All the triumph we could achieve would be after all of no very profitable result ; nor shall we mend the matter by directing vengeanee against the leader of the semi-Romanist or Tractarian movement. Can we depose bishops for having fa voured this ceremony, or dabbled with that doctrine ? Or is it possible or worth while for the sake of the deprivation of even a majority of the bishops to make a holocaust of the whole number ? The culpable have, in fact, bowed their beads before the storm, and the seeking to inflict more on them than their present humiliation would fail. Even were success in bath instances possible, it would be far from wise to make martyrs of either Romanist or Tractarian, for either of them would thereby acquire an interest and a cha racter which both for the present want. It is indeed incumbent on all to maintain the Queen's supre macy, to uphold the sovereign power of her who concentrates the lay and spiritual authority of the state. For without this the great lay community can never be safe against the caprices of our fet own clergy, or the hostility of a rival hierarchy. the laws for this great purpose be fullynfo enforced, with out en let se u ct s a a ri i a m n reforming 3v o ii u ng t dh m iecrt a .i k v i e n Lin g eestu e s m ßs esutttoaoabpto about t. personal s rs o ea n mm a oe v o i r tni e gm e or even s • r • against sacerdotal usurpation, be the p u n n e g s, s f la r o e m t t he whichpre present t t s o a v b e u x s e e n a t n n defection o li f a r v e e . li g ious liberty, and directed to prevention rather than punishment, to se curity for the future, more than to vengeance for the present.
