Interest on Shares Five per Cent. per Annum, and on Deposits Four per Cent. per Annum, payable half-yearly. ing out to the editor of the Weekly Register that, as we then thought, by sheer inadver tence of an unreflecting writer, a proposition similar to the one now maintained, was ad vanced. We cannot, as we said before, believe that a Catholic paper will venture deliberately to uphold such a theory. In the hope that the error would have been recanted fully and spon taneously, we kept silence, lest 'our motives in speaking might be misconstrued ; but, as no recantation or disavowal is forthcoming, we must disclaim any participation, even by silence, in such a theory as that propounded by the Weekly Register. Two points strike us on such an occasion as the present, as deserving of public attention : Ist, that since the Holy See, in the Syllabus of Errors, has given us a guide for our public conduct, it is the duty at least of every Catholic writer to make himself acquainted with and submit his mind to this formal ruling of the Church : and 2nd, that if any Catholic, either through ignorance or disregard, should, by public statements offend, even in political principles against these decisions of the Holy See, every participation in such an offence should, as a matter of course, and on every occasion, be repudiated by his fellow-Catholics. By some such means only can a wholesome public opinion in conformity with the political principles of the Church be maintained in tact in these days of political apostacy.—West vtinster Gazette.

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND 5T..47E. We quoted last week a passage from a Ger man Catholic periodical of great authority, re ferring to the political importance of the Syl labus, and to the duty incumbent on writers in the Catholic press of applying its principles to the existing conditions of society. Such a study of the political principles of the Sylla bus, it urged, would preserve Catholics from the danger of falling into the grave but too common errors of the day. The most common of these false political principles is the separa tion of Church and State, a principle main tained and propagated by every organ of re volutionary and un-Christian Liberalism in Europe. This theory was one of the unhappy errors into which Lamennais fell. In his paper, the Aven it., he advocated, as is well known, the advantages which the Church would de rive in being free from the trammels of the State ; he descanted on the freedom which the prelates of a Church separated from the State would enjoy in their intercourse with Rome, on the superiority of the voluntary system to State endowments; he declared that the idea of the Church influencing the State, and the State fashioning its actions by the Church, sounded very well in theory, but was evil in practice ; in fine, that only where the Church was separated from'the State can true religion increase and flourish. Such, in substance, was the error of the unhappy Lamennais set forth in eloquent appeals to the clergy of France and of Belgium. The Holy See pronounced a for mal censure on Lamennais for thus advocating , the separation of Church and State ; Pope Gregory XVI. declaring, in the Mirari Vos, that " the union between Church and State has ever been propitious and salutary to the interests of both." Every Catholic who in a Catholic paper ad vocates the separation of Church and State is at least guilty of culpable ignorance if, before venturing to propound such a theory, he has not made himself familiar with the discus sion which Lamennais's error excited in the Catholic world, or, at any rate, with the ultimate judgment pronounced on this error by the Holy See. We did. not imagine, until we read a leading article in the Weekly Register of the 18th April, that any Catholic of education could be ignorant of so important a decision on a matter regarding not an ab struse point in theology, but a cardinal prin ciple of Catholic politics, as that promulgated to the whole Catholic world by Gregory XVI. But if it is a culpable ignorance on the part of a Catholic writer not to know that Lamen nais's error, as to the relation of Church and State, was condemned by Gregory XVI., what shall we think of a writer in a Catholic paper maintaining a proposition condemned, not only in the last Pontificate, but by the recent Syl labus of Pius IX. ? That we wish to believe is that the writer is not a Catholic, and, there fore, ignorant of the importance which Catho lics attach to the condemnations of the Sylla bus. Of course, the editor of the Weekly Register cannot intend to support condemned propositions in his paper, and will, on having this grave offence against Catholic teaching pointed out to him, hasten, we have no doubt, to recant theerrorand disavow the writer. In these days, when secularists and irreligious liberals are advocating a complete severance of politics from religion, of the State from the Church, it is of the highest importance that Catholics should not be misled on this great question, especially by writers in a Catholic paper, so much respected on account of its religious zeal, as the Weekly Register. It was for our guidance under circumstances such as the pre sent that the Holy See has provided Catholics with a Syllabus of eighty condemned proposi tions. The fifty-fifth proposition of the Sylla bus, condemning the theory maintained by the Weekly Register of the 18th of April, in its article on the relations between Church and State, is as follows :—" The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church." The animus of the article is to show the ill-effects of a union between the ecclesiastical and secular powers, but the writer not only displays throughout the article an animus contrary on this matter to the mind of the Church, but states in terms the condemned proposition in the following passages:—"ln proportion as a State (" in Catholic lands ") becomes united with the Church, so surely does real, vital religion fall off in that State. . • . In Rome, and in Rome alone, is the union between Church and State a thing to hold fast, and the reason is because in the patrimony of St. Peter, the Church is the State. Rome in this, as in many other things, is an exception to the rest of the world." The advancement by the Weekly .Ij),egister of this condemned proposition is especially to be deplored at the present moment, as, unless it is rejected by Catholics, it may mislead Pro testants on a very important and practical point of Catholic teaching. We. know that it has already given great offence to Catholics. But what strikes us as most singular and is really the cause of our calling attention to this article is, that it is not the first offence. We remember in the beginning of the year point- SOUTHERN EMBANKMENT. The works of the Southern Thames Embankment, which is now open for foot passengers between Westminster and Lambeth Bridges, were com menced in July, 1866, at which time the first stone was laid, so that in less than two years a large and important section of this great work has been suc cessfully completed. The entire length would in all probability have been completed bad it not been for the difficulty of obtaining possession of the several properties which it was necessary to acquire. It will no doubt be a matter of remark how much more rapid has been the progress of this than that of the twin work on the Middlesex side of the river, which was com menced at a much earlier date ; but it must not be lost sight of that the starting of a large work of this kind is beset with many difficulties and saddled with many tentative experiments of which later works obtain the benefit. Besi:les whi c h the Middlesex Embankment is in many respects a more difficult and complicated work, owing partly to the greater depth of water in which it has had to be constructed ; partly to its comlination with the low level intercepting sewer and subway above ; partly to the many special works connected there with, such as the several steamboat and other land.. ing places and sewer outlets, and not less to the co-temporary or intended execution of railway worlis upon its site. The works upon the south side, with which we ' are now more especially concerned, comprise a length of 2,200 feet of river wall between West minster and Lambeth Bridges, and a further length of 2,100 feet from Lambeth -bridge to the site of the London Gas Works, with very few exceptions the wall is of uniform character throughout its length, and is similar in elevation to that on the Middlesex side, having a highly-dressed granite facing with plain curved battered surface up to high water mark, and above that a moulded parapet and plinth, the mouldings being stopped at frequent intervals against plain pedestals of granite, which will be furnished with ornamental bronze mooring at t i t o ia n t d o uf n : t e l i i id e rings, similar to,those already fixed on the for Middl esex irii cdk g d a wl e s :e l r i xk g hsftais(ci. side b i i s tebi a n , g a g l r l fa d our i sex Embankment, and- surmounted with standards d i ff t t n e e e: s d aof variation concrete i r n i with granite, that on the Middlesex side being of some measure to the circumstance of the subway and low level sewer being constructed in the latter case, so as to form a portion of the structure of the wall. There arc no recesses for steamboat landing places constructed in connection with the southern em bankment, a circumstance due to the shallow fore shore on that side, but the approach to the Lambeth steamboat pier will be improved and rendered some what more ornamental than at present. The only variation of importance in this long length of embankment wall is at Westminster-bridge, where a lauding-place for smaller boats has been constructed. At this point there is also a descent by a wide flight of steps from Westminster-bridge to the promenade footway formed alongside the embankment wall, and now opened to the public. This approach from the bridge is made to correspond generally in character with that on the Middlesex side. The only other variations in the elevation of the wall will occur above Lambeth-bridge, at the pot tery works of Messrs. Doulton and of Mr. Stiff, where entrances are to be formed to docks situate, or to be constructed on the land side of the intended embankment road. These entrances will pass under the roadway without interfering with its 'level, and will be made in as sightly a manner as such struc tures permit. Similar openings will be formed fur ther up the river to give access to the river for carts and waggons to accommodate the traffic now using the White Hart Draw Dock. The foundations of the wall are carried down to a level of 30 feet below Trinity High Water, and it is intended to excavate the foreshore to the extent of 18 feet below the same datum. The entire length of work between Westminster and Lambeth bridges, and for a considerable length beyond, has been executed by means of a double whole tide timber coffer dam of the ordinary type, but at about 800 feet above Lambeth-bridge the wall is being constructed in a trench excavated out of the solid ground, for at this part the walls run inland, and the ground on the river side thereof will, after the completion of the wall, be excavated and re moved, the space being thrown into the river so as to increase the stream, which is here very narrow, to a more uniform width to the upper part of the Thames, and admit the tidal water to flow more freely. The area of land thus to be converted into water is about two acres, and the area of land re claimed from the river below this spot about six acres. When the embankment is completed, the width of the river will vary from 800 feet at West minster-bridge to 700 at the Penitentiary. The promenade now open for foot passengers, and which is 20 feet wide, will eventually be con tinued of a somewhat variable width along the en tire length of the embankment, and, indeed, be yond it as far as High-street, for, to make the improvement as complete as possible, the roadway of Vauxhall-row will be widened up to its junction with the new Thames Embankment Roadway. This road will ex tend from Gun-house Alley to Westmins ter-bridge, and will, in connection with the exten sion referred to, form an approach GO feet in width between Westminster and Vauxhall-bridges, in con tinuation of Stamford-street at the East and of the several roads meeting at Vauxhall-bridge at the Western extremity. The roadway will be formed along the river side for a length of about GOO yards, but will diverge from it to connect at the one end with Vauxhall row and at the oiler with Palace New-road. The footway promenade will, however, be continued along the river side for nearly the entire length of the embankment. Upon the reclaimed land situate between Westminster and. Lambeth-bridges, bounded on the river side by the promenade foot way, and on the land side by the intended new road, are being erected the new buildings for St. Thomas's Hospital, which will add materially to the architectural embellishment of the embankment. A similar back ground is much needed to give full effect to that embankment on the Middlesex shore. ....... 4d. STAMP) D 5l. EXTRAORDINARY A TTEM P 7 70 MURDER IN THE CITY. --~-- On Friday evening an atrocious attempt was made by two boys to murder a woman named Mrs. Nuun, the housekeeper at No. 2, Catherine-court, Tower-hill, City. It appears that the house is let out as offices, the basement being occupied by Messrs. Sweet and Co., wine and spirit merchants ; the ground floor by Messrs. Gregory and Co., corn factors ; the first floor by Mr. Beerbohm, corn merchant ; the second floor by Messrs. Bicharach Brothers and Co., wine merchants; and three rooms on the top by the unfortunate woman, gr.. Nunn, and her daughter and Eon-in law, named Ellis. On Friday the daughter was out all day, and at six o'clock in the evening the son-in-law went to Clapham on a visit, leaving Mrs. Nunn, who is 65 years of age, in the house alone. Returning at about a quarter to nine he rung the bell, but receiving no answer he walked about the neighbourhood for nearly three-quartets of an hour. lle then went back to the house and found his mother-in-law sitting on the doorstep covered with blood, and in an unconscious state. The unfortunate woman was promptly removed to Guy's hospital, and was found to have been dread fully injured, her head and face having been beaten in with a blunt instrument. One of her arms was also swelled to an enormous extent, and there were bruises all over her body. An examination of the premises by the police showed the attack on the old woman to have been of a very violent character, there being a pool of blood on the landing of the first-floor, and appear ances indicated that the struggle had continued for some time. The police also discovered lying about a wooden mallet, with which the wounds had been inflicted, a pistol, a boy's cap, and a pocket-knife. A sum of £2 Os. 6d. was missing from a small bag which was lying on a box in the housekeeper's room ; and the box, which contained some silver plate, had been forced open, but nothing was taken from it. As the traces of blood were simply from the first. landing down to the front door, the supposition is that the money had been stolen while Mrs. Nunn was engaged in cleaning some of the offices, and that the attack was made while the boys were com ing down stairs. They must also have concealed themselves in the cellar before the premises were shut up, as it was there that the mallet was usually kept, besides other indicAtions of their presence. Suspicion was at first directed to ayoung man who had been in the employ of Mr. Beerbohm us clerk, and who was supposed to have been gUilty of committing a robbery of about £5O in bank notes from a desk in his employer's office. Inquiries were accordingly made on Friday night, but the replies received from the young man were so satisfactory that there could be no doubt of his innocence of the crime which had been committed. In the course of the night Mrs. Nunn partly recovered conscious ness, and she was able to say something to the effect that two boys bad done it, and this statement was partly borne out by the fact that two boys, distant relatives of Mrs. Nunn, were seen in the court by a little boy, the son of a Mr. Hammond, who resides in a house opposite to No. 2. These boys, whose names are Arthur Forrester Smith, fifteen years old, and Hector Augustus Smith, thirteen years old, absconded from their parents' home on the evening of Good Friday, taking with them £4 belonging to their father, and on the evening of Friday last the boy Hammond saw them go down the basement stairs of No. 2, Catherine-court. The cap found on the premises was afterwards identified as one which had been bought on the 21st of April from Mr. Davis, hatter, King's-ma:l, Chelsea, who states that on that day three boys drove to his shop in a cab ; that one of them purchased the zap for 2:;. 6 - 1., ati.l that they afterwards told th, elbluan to drive to llampstea,d -heath. On Saturday forenoon Mr. Gore, the assistant clerk to the Lord Mayor, went to U iy's Hospital to take the depositions of the dying woman, but he could not get any satisfactory st tterneut, as she was scarcely able to articulate. In the meantime Superintendent Poster, Inspector Bailey, of the detective department, Inspector Tilleock, and De tective Sergeant Moss were actively engaged in endeavouring to capture the boys, and bills were sent to all the police-stations and to the seaport towns, containing their description, and offering a reward of £2O for their apprehension. Negatives of a carte de visite of the elder boy, taken about a year ago, were also distributed, and officers belonging to the City police were yesterday sent all over London to places where there was any probability of their being seen or heard of, includ ing the parks and places of recreation. These exer tions were not fruitless, as the boys were appre hended about one o'clo c k y es t er d ay by d e tective sergents Moss and Ilaydon in a coffeehouse in the Strand. In reply to the officers, the boys said their name was Smith. They were then charged with having committed the murderous assault on Mrs. Nunn, and they acknowledged that they did it, and said they were tempted, but did not know what tempted them. They also stated that they were in her bedroom, and that she found them there and began to scream. Had she not done that, they said, they would not have thought of striking her. They likewise admitted that they had been there bef ore, and taken the bank notes of which Mr. Beerbohm had been robbed. They had evidently washed the blood off their clothes, although some stains still remained, and they told the officers that no one was with them when they committed the assault. They had in their possession a pistol, a quantity of per cussion caps, two powder flasks, two pairs of box ing gloves, some foils, and a small amount of money. It appears that they have been staying in the coffeehouse since they absconded from home, and that it was a son of the coffeehouse keeper who accompanied them when they purchased the cap at Mr. Davis's. At half-past two o'clock yesterday, Mrs. Nunn having recovered consciousness, the Lord Mayor and Mr. Oke, the chief clerk at the Mansion-house, attended at the hospital to take her deposition. Shortly after their arrival the Lord Mayor was in formed that the boys had been arrested, and in ac cordance with his directions they were taken to the bedside of the dying woman by Superintendent Foster and identified by her as her assailants. Ic may be mentioned that on the 13th of July last year the prisoners were found concealed in the same cellar from which the mallet had been taken on the present occasion. They were then taken to the police station, and their parents having been communicated with :they were given up. Their father is a Custom-house officer, resid ing in Albion-place, Old Ford-street, Old Ford, and it appears that he is a brother to a son-in-law of Mrs. Nunn, living in Castle-street, Holborn. The boys were yesterday in the first instance taken to Seething-lane police-station, and after wards to the lock-up at Bishopsgate, and they will be brought up to-day at the justice-room of the Mansion-house for examination before the Lord Mayor. THE STEAM BERD.—Under this title Mr. J. K. Smythies, of Paddington, barrister-at-law, proposes to in troduce a " flying steam engine," fitted with wings, flap ped by the action of steam. lie reduc::•s the ratio of the weight of the engine to its power by using a tubular boiler, with very small thin tubes. lle will use liquid fuel and carry very little water, condensing the steam by a very light condenser, made U.) the tail of a bird, to sus tain the bird and steady its flight. The arms of the wings are connected with the p:stun rod of the engine, so that the apparatus is raised by the strokes of the wings alone, without light gas, heated air, or o ther contrivance to give it buoyancy. To this engine he attaches seats for one or more passengers.—Mining Journal. llurni:nau's Pure Teas are Bd. per pound cheaper.

A correspondent of the Northern Daily Express, writing from Barnsley, on Saturday evening, says " To-day the above colliery, which has during the 'past sixteen months been the scene of so much excitement, was visited by a large number of the widows and relatives of those en• tombed, in consequence of the explorers having recovered four bodies. The explorers have been at work near to Jones Jenny, and on Saturday morning some of them went up a `board' ' which goes into a road which leads under the engine place. Here they found four bodies laid altogether. From the boots which they wore it is thought they are four of the noble band of volunteers who went down the pit on the 13th of December to recover the dead. They seemed to have all fallen together, and were laid on their backs and sides. One of them had his arm across his forehead, as if to protect himself from the fearful explosion of which they, like those who escaped, had been warned by what is termed a suck.' It would appear that they were amongst those who were racing for dear life' to the bottom during the time the dead were being removed. The gates at the steps,' which are usually closed, were thrown open to enable the men to reach the bottom by a shorter route. Many of those who were acquainted with the workings passed up the steps. The four men, it seems, went up the 'board,' with the intention of going on the usual travelling road, when they fell victims to the deadly blast. The place where these were found was only from 200 to 300 yards from the pit bottom. The bodies were got to the pit bottom, and reached the bank at half-past three o'clock in the afternoon. They were taken to the dead-house and placed in coffins. Two of them when alive seemed to have been possessed of great muscular power., One of them had on his neck a black handkerchief with red spots, and wore strong watertight boots. Two of the others wore slender boots, such as miners wear after work is done, whilst the fourth appeared to have no boots on. The boots were cut off, and will be preserved for the purposes of identi fication. One boot is mended at the side, the other light ones are double soled. The appearance of the bodies told the terrible story of the ordeal through which they had passed. One man's head was nearly cloven in twc, and part of it lay on his shoulder. Another had his back broken, whilst a third had his legs fractured. So far as the features go it is impossible to identify them, but it is thought that two out of the four will be identified. It may be stated that the area for exploration has been greatly limited, possibly to one-half the pit, by the water which has accumulated in the dip workings, where a large num ber of the bodies are known to be. When they will be got out no one seems to hazard an opinion, seeing that the pumping appliances do not reach that part of the workings. THE FAILURE OF OVEREND, GURNEY, AND CO. In Vice-Chancellor Sir Robert Malins's Court, judge meat has been given in the case of Coles v. Bristowe. The bill was filed by the plaintiff for the specific performance by the defendants of a contract to purchase 200 shares in the company of 0 verend, Gurney, and Co. (Limited), on the 9th May, 1860, the day before the company stopped pay ment. The shareS were purchssed for the settling day, viz., the 15th May. On the 14th the names of seventeen persons were given to the vendor, who executed the transfers, and the defendants, who are jobbers, paid the purchase-money, £2,475, to Messrs. Sutton and Co., the plaintiff's brokers, who had sold the shares on his behalf. The transfers executed by the plaintiff were not registered, but the certificates were handed to the defendants. In the meanwhile an order was made to wind up the com pany. and the plaintiff's name was placed on the list of contributories, and a call was made. It so happened that the plaintiff was a creditor of a company in the sum of £7,000, and in order to prove for his debt he was compelled to pay the call. The object of this bill was to ccmpel the defendant to complete the pur. chase, so as to relieve the plaintiff from the responsibility occasioned by the shares remaining on the register in his name ; and the question was whether, according to the practice and rules of the Stock Exchange, the defendants, Messrs. Bristowe, the jobbers, were themselves liable on the contract, or only the clients for whom they acted. It was said that the distinction between the case opfk i jobber and a broker was, that a broker was always considered as acting for come unknown principal, and not on his own account, but that a jobber was considered as acting for himself. The plaintiff relied on the decision in the case of Grissell v. Bristowe. The plaintiff also relied on the rules and custom of the Stock Exchange. The defendants contended that there was always a prin. cipal behind the jobber as behind a broker—in fact, that there was no distinction between the cases. A jobber like a broker was bound only personally to pay for and corn. plete a contract to purchase where he was the real pur, chaser and gave no name, but that a different rule pre. valleti 1. h e ro lie acted for-principala whnsc, names he gave on the settling clay. The defendants distinguished this case from that of C rissell v. Bristowe. The Vice-Chancellor delivered a long and elaborate judgment. He said in his ()pillion the plaintiff was entitled to the performance of the agreement, and for the repay ment of the sum of £4,000, which he had paid for a call, and an indemnity against future calls, which, however ; would be inoperative, inasmuch as no more calls would lg. necessary in re Overend and Gurney. It was satisfactory to him, the Vice-Chancellor, that the defendants would have their remedy against the sub-purchasers. The defen dants to pay the costs and interest on the £l,OOO at £4 pei cent.

FATAL AFFRAY IN EDINBURGII.-At the Edinburgh Police-court, a young man, named James Tweedie, was remitted on a charge of culpable homicide, in causing the death of a gentleman's servant, named John Kerr, in Princes-street. It appears that on Wednesday evening last Tweedie, Kerr, and two ladies were taking shelter fram the rain under the porch of the Bedford Hotel, when Kerr, it is said, used insulting language towards the ladies. Tweedie reprimanded Kerr for his conduct, and during an altercation which ensued Kerr struck Tweedie a blow on the face. Tweedie did not retaliate at the time, but he followed Kerr along Princes-street, and, when opposite Waverley Bridge, attacked him and felled him to the grovv l . Kerr's head came in contact with the kerb- stone, a - v' h's skull was fractured. He was able to walk home, but he afterwards sank rapidly, and died the follow ing night. IMPORTANT DECISION WITH REGARD TO BANKS.—At the sittings of the Court for the Consideration of Crown Cases Reserved, the case of Regina v. Brackenbridge and others came on for hearing. The prisoner was indicted for engraving on a plate part of a promissory note pur porting to be a banknote of the British Linen Company (who were bankers in Scotland). The indictment was framed under the 24th and 25th of Victoria, cap. 98, sec tion 16, which declared that whoever should, without lawful authority, engrave, &c., any promissory note, &c., of the Governor and Company of the Bank of England or of Ireland, or of any other body, corporation, or person carrying on business as bankers, should be guilty of felony ; but in the 55th section of the same Act it was stated that it should extend to Scotland. The case was tried before Mr. Justice Smith, when it was urged that, as this was a forgery upon a bank in Scotland, this Act did not apply. The counsel for the Crown urged that the 55th section, con. taining the exception as to Scotland, was not intended by the Legislature to prevent a prosecution for a forgery com mitted in England upon a bank in Scotland being sustained. The Chief Baron said this was a very important question, but the Court were of opinion that a bank in Scotland or in the colonies must be taken to he included in this Act. The conviction was, therefore, affirmed. Is A CLERGYMAN ON DUTY LIABLE TO PAY TOLL ?—ln the Court of Queen's Bench an appeal of the Rev. C. Layard against a man named Overy was heard. This was a case relating to a claim by a clergyman of exemption from toll on going to visit a sick parishioner. It was an appeal by the perpetual curate of St. John's, Wembly, against a conviction by magistrates of Middlesex at Edg ware for denying payment of toll on the turnpike-road between Rickmansworth and Sudbury. The facts were that the rev. defendant was sent for on the day in ques tion to visit a sick parishioner within his parish, and that he went to visit her in a pony carriage drawn by one pony, and that he took with him in the carriage wife and two daughters. He could have go ne the whole Iris wife way through his own parish, but th i e e dist , ce Tollwas shortened by going out of it and through t to was visit aroundve s tclergym an, o tt t o llgate . tin s e cb x iu • c e .t m s I t ) o iel n de in favour claimed, e col f g re 3 f l t l i i secenodn, theconvicted tt magistrates, however, a chtiroitil eoi c i o t )i i i .e is g el r o ou n i to i t t h h s a i t de t s h , e t r l e i e w c a o s u n r o t q(u)cuaabssieti.e:liiieAt liehcfleteefcreicin°ld:llelara:i',l)tt A l v o a s s e b h o l l i z s a e j:l e c m g; t i i n o g n to nl e y r i e s 3 t , a b y s sick taking his ; an, his wife and daughter with him for an airing.
