feeble attempt was made to sustain the Foram , But whence did it proceed ? From one of the newly appointed dignitaries; one who was himself elevated to episcopal rank and station by the objectionable rescript. Dr, ULL APR ORN E was too palpably an interested party—one too closely concerned 'in the issue to permit much weight to be attached to his opinions or arguments. The nature of the almost solitary exception proved the strength and the all but universality of the rule. But matters have at length assumed a different aspect, the gage of battle has been flung down by a person serving, or at leant professing to serve, under a very different standard. The Rev. GEORGE Aet- TRONY DENISON, a beneficed clergyman of the Church of England, has attempted to sow divisions in the camp, to raise the banner of revolt among the previously united cohorts. The Rev. Gentleman exhibits considerable skill in the tactics he has adopted. He does not at tempt directly to stem the torrent, although the animus in which he enters on the contest is sufficiently plain to require no explanation as to his real motives. But be endeavours to create a diversion, to turn the attention of the people to another and a very different matter. He declares that " the warfare which the Church of England has to wage . in these days is only secondarily against Rome ;" that " her first and greatest enemy is the latitudinarianism of the State." "The first and greatest evil against which she has to contend (says the Rev. Gentleman) is the endeavour of the State to denude her step by step of her Catholic character." He also emphati cally warns the "members of the Catholic Church of England" to beware how they combine with every thing that is " anti- Catholic," in one " Protestant" out cry against something which is Catholic. It is impos sible to peruse the epistle of the Rev. Gentleman without agreeing with him in one particular. We admit that " the warfare which the Church of England has to wage is only secondarily against Rome." There are greater dangers to be dreaded from the stabs of • pre tended friends than from the hostility of fair and manly opponents, who openly and honourably avow their real characters. Deeper injury has been inflicted of late years by " Tractarianism " and Puseyism, by the decking out of altars, and the re establishment of obsolete forms and ceremonies, re pugnant to the feelings of true Protestants, than by all that could be accomplished by the acknowledged emissaries and ministers of the Papal Court. had it not been fur this movement, and fur the mischievous divisions created thereby in the Church of England, it is more than probable that we should not have seen the recent aggressions by the head of the Roman Catholic Church. Had it not been for " the fantastic tricks played before high Heaven" by ministers and, we regret to say, by pre lates of the Established Church, the heart-burn ings and dissensions that have been so painfully con spicuous of late years would not have taken place. We should not have had in the " Gorham Contro versy," pursued usque ad nauseam, the persevering at tempt to drive a pious, au amiable, a learned, and, in every respect, un exemplary clergyman, 'rorn the Church of which he is au ornament. Nor William Smitbett, is to be tried down the river to morrow, and her two aft boilers will only be used. When she went down the river on Saturday last for the purpose of being tried she had one boiler for ward and one aft at work on reverse sides of the vessel, for the purpose of balancing her properly, but the trial at the measured mile was not proceeded with, as the steam generated found its way in considerable quantities into the empty boilers, and consequently a fair trial could not be obtained. The Volcano steam-vessel is having her rigging put up at this port, and will be the next vessel com missioned for the coast of Africa. The Locust steam vessel will also be made ready for the same service.

Let the fiscal and financial Reformers bz: fully alive to the importance of this great, this unques tionable fact. Let them shake off the slumbers in which they have so long in dulged and arouse themselves from their apathy. Two years since a spirit of thrift appeared to have taken possession oi" the nation. A loud and energetic demand for economy and retrenchment was heard throughout the length and breadth of the land ; the injustice and impolicy of " indirect taxation" was exposed in every district. Free-traders, or those who professed to be so, declared that every restriction on British commerce should be abolished, that there should be no Excise or Customs duties to clog the national industry. Various suggestions were offered well worthy of consideration, and among others the EPSOM GRAND STEEPLE-CHASES. TO-MORROW (WEDNESDAY) the 6th November. LONDON, BRIGEITON, and SOUTH-COAST RAILWAY.

They do not now, " sweet innocents," de mand the re-imposition of " protective duties." Oh, no, far from it ! The late lamented Lord GEORGE BENTINCK, a single year after the abolition of the corn-laws, admitted " the hopelessness of looking forward to a return of these imposts." But they merely ask " for an import duty on agricultural produce," for the sake of revenue (! " to as,,ist them in paying the interest on some part of that debt under which they at present groaned." They must, indeed, entertain rather an bumble opinion of the national intelligence, if they for a moment suppose that the community is now to be de ceived by such specious pretences, such gross and palpable humbug. The recollections of the corn laws, of the small and dear loaf, are " too green" in the public memory to allow of that public being quite ao green as to be caught by such chaff. It is well, however, to be prepared for the convulsive effort—to be aware of the direction in which the attack will be made. And that has, happily, been exposed by the speech of Mr. MILES, the Protectionist Member for West Somersetshire, at the naeet- WATER Al LONDON BRIDGE.

Fas est ab hostc doceri. There are certain matters alluded to by the Honourable Gen tleman well worthy the attention of all classes of Reformers, more especially of those who feel the vital importance, nay more, the absolute and impera tive necessity of great fiscal changes, of a thorough and searching investigation into the national re sources and the national expenditure. And first, Mr. MILES has clearly and distinctly pointed out the great and almost insuperable difficulty, the formidable impediment, that obstructs the very threshold of the undertaking. No new tax can be proposed in the House of Commons without the con sent of the Crown being first duly had and obtained, and that consent will not be granted unless the proposi tion meets . the approbation of the Ministry, or, perhaps we might more correctly say, of Sir CHARLES WOOD, who presides over the financial department. Any suggestion for fiscal changes is at once met with the preliminary objection—The revenue of the country is only sufficient to , provide for its expenditure. If you would keep faith with the public creditor, you cannot abolish any productive tax without providing a fittiag substitute, and the assent of the Crown has not been obtained with r es p ec t t o t h at su b s tit u t e , which cannot therefore even be taken into consider ation. Thus an inconvenient discussion is stopped i n iimine, and the atrocious system of indirect taxation is still maintained through a blind and slavish ad herence to this stringent regulation, which was established when the regal power was not so clearly defined and limited as at present. It was to remove this difficulty for future generations that we recently directed the public attention to the necessity of limiting the duration of any new tax that may b e imposed in place of the rapidly ceasing income-tax to a single year, by which the popular strength would be consolidated and planted upon a sound and firm foundation. The golden opportunity afforded by the expiry of that impost is clearly discerned by enemies as well as friends—by Protectionists as well as Free. traders. Mr. MILES declared at Bridgewater that "it appeared to him that certainly the whole question of their taxa tion would be raised next year, because next year, as a matter of course, the question of the income-tax would again come before Parliament, and that would open the whole question of the particular burdens of the whole nation, or of the productive part of it. When tht was discussed they might ask for any relief from taxation, or move an ame n d men t on th e pre sent system of taxation—they could choose their course.'" This is, indeed, the truth. Mr. MILES was fully warranted in his assertion that it will open the whole question, and enable the chosen representatives of the people " to ask for any relief fromtaxation,or a THE SUN, - LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5, 1850.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es. timated at 5,000 bales, r f which 500 Surat were taken for exportation. The market closed heavily, with prices of all kinds a shade in favour of buyers. The sales comprised about 3,500 American at 7-4 d. to Bid.; 100 Egyptian at Bd. to 91; 1,000 Surat at 51d. to 54d.; and 80 Sea Islands at is. 2cl. to ls. 50. per 10.—Ia Railway Shares a flir business was done, and the market closed firm with an upward tendency iu prices. The endeavour to establish a tribunal of commerce, it is satisfactory to find, is rot likely to slumber, al though we could wish to see the merchants at large taking a more active part. The mere adhesion to pro posals for a good object is scarcely sufficient, and unless a warm interest is taken in the question, and its import ance is not only understood but enforced, wo shall find it much more difficult to establish a new system than had been supposed. There can be no doubt that it is in the power of the attorneys to forward the matter, and that their interest would not suffer by so doing; but we contend nevertheless that it is the business more especially of the merchants. Mr. Francis Lyne, who originated the movement, has received several highly creditable offers of support from solicitors, and among them the following:— " Having observed by the papers your intention of establishing a society, having for its object the settlement of disputes without the heavy expenses of litigation, I requested my agents, Messrs. —, of Lincoln's Inn, to see you on the subject, and to request that you will be kind enough to let me have the rules of die society. My agents write me word you are kind enough to say you will answer any questions I put. I have practised as a solicitor here for the last sixteen years, but have always avoided, almost by any means, carrying my cause to trial, and have generally arranged the eases by friendly mrdiation.

Thes Yarmouth !Vora Scotia Register stm'sais—" Our mackerel fishermen, we regret to say, are doing a very slim business this year.

Two year: , ago, at the came season of th© year, lie counted over 20,000 barrels on the wharves of the Cape.

At length the POPE has found a suitable defender e—a champion has entered the lists, armed cap-a-pied and ready to combat a rouarance all who take excep tion to the latest and most daring act of aggression by a foreign potentate on the independence of the Pro testant people of England. We had hoped that a ge neral feeling of indignation would have thrilled like an electric shock throughout the length and breadth of the land, at an act of usurpation which would not have been at tempted or for a moment tolerated in any Rernan Catholic country. We had hoped that this laudable feeling would not have been limited to the members of any creed or sect, to Episcopalians ; Presbyterian!, or Dissenters, but that every English , man, Roman Catholic as well as Protestant, would have cordially co-operated together in repel ling the insult to their common country ; that the spirit of nationality as well as of allegiance to their beloved SOVENBIGN, whose authority and prerogative has been slighted and eet aside, would on this occasion, at least, have insured unanimity; and we had slrcrig grounds for this opinion. Perhaps never was there so singular an instance of concurrence among the fourth eetate• The public journals did not on this occasion lead or direct public opinion. They merely gave voice and expression to the general sentiment. It is true that a admirable letter of the Hon. Member for Glasgow to his constituents, which, although it did not go quite so far in the way of direct taxation as we ourselves would desire, would be a vast improvement on the Present system, and which we feel justified in declar ing to be the ablest, as well as the most equitable budget brought forward by any Chancellor of the Exchequer for many successive ages, since the " land ocracy" succeeded in shaking the burdens from their shoulders and transferring them to the backs of the industrious classes, who are sinking under the enor mous and ill-arranged weight. Where is now the activity that was then so strikingly exhibited ? With returning prosperity they relapsed into their former quiescence. They appear to have forgotten that so long as the existing fiscal and monetary codes are retained, so long as the working classes are ground down by heavy taxes on what may be almost termed the necessaries of life, so long as the very life-blood of industry, a circulating medium adequate to the wants and exigencies of the country is wanting, the prosperity, of which they have enjoyed some fitful and passing gleams, can only be transient. We are passing through the regular grada tions of the cycle indicated by Mr. JONES LOYD, now Lord OYERSTONE. We have happily es caped from the " convulsive panic " and " distress" of 1847, the stagnation of 1848, the "quiescence" of 1849, and the "improvement" of 1850 ; we are at present at that part of the cycle marked "growing confidence," and we may, perhaps, speedily look for the " prosperity" that will pass into "excitement," until the turning point is attained, and we enter upon a descent through "convulsive panic" and distress similar to what occurred during the commercial crisis, of which the country possesses so many bitter reminiscences. The trade barometer is now rising, but how soon may we anticipate a fall more disastrous than any yet experienced if we do not take due advantage of the golden opportunity now afforded ? It is only when the country is in the enjoyment of comparative prosperity that any great experi ment can be made, that important fiscal changes can be attempted. In a season of excitement, panic, or distress, when credit is shaken to its foundation, and a general want of confidence is perceptible, it is impossible to abolish even admitted evils—to pass from a bad to a wise and judicious system. The time is now favourable in every respect, and we now earnestly and emphatically call upon the fiscal, financial, and monetary Reformers to " awake, arise, or be fur ever fallen." If they let the golden opportuoity slip, their enemies will not be guilty of such culpable remissness. We have heard from one of their leaders that they intend to seek " fur import duties on agricultural produce," not for the sake of protection (! ! !), oh, no, nothing of the sort, but fur the sake of revenue ! ",Gon save the mark." And we tell the people who now smile at so ridiculous a project, that unless they themselves take measures to defeat the effort it may be more success ful than they now believe to be possible. We cannot remain stationary; we must conquer, or consent to have our chains doubly rivetted. We must reform the taxation of the country, and see it placed upon a just and equitable foundation, or see a retrograde movement, and the re-imposition of im port duties on articles of food, which will not be in any degree more satisfactory because they may be established for the sake of revenue, and not of pro tection. It is for the people to select which branch of the alternative they please, and we tell them that the result will depend on their own conduct, and on the manifestations of their desires, which may be exhibited during the ensuing three months. If the pressure from without is wanting—if the various constituencies do not give full and unmistakable in. structions to their respective representatives, the "in come-tax" will be renewed in its present oppressive and inequitable shape, without change or modification ; and if that untoward event should happen we shall be but little surprised if import duties on agricultural produce should follow. If we deliberately surrender our vantage ground we cannot be astonished if it should be forthwith occupied by our opponents. We at least will perform our duty, and uplift our warning voice to summon the Reformers to the banner under which the contest must be decided. TiT' 'POPE'S "BULL."—In Leeds a strong feeling is getting up amongst the clergy against the establishment of the Romish hierarchy in England ; and yesterday (Mon day) a meeting, convened by the Rev. Dr. Hook, vicar of the parish, was held in the vestry of the parish church, to memorialise the Bishop of Ripon on the subject. The meeting was strictly a private one, but it is understood out of doors that a memorial was agreed upon. We are enabled to state, that though on the first blush of the matter it was not the intention of Lord John Russell to propose the enactment of any statute relative to the partitioning of England, by the Pope, in to Roman Ca tholic bishoprics,—yet that, so great and manifold have been the applications made to him from all classes of her Majesty's subjects, to adopt some decisive course to put down these Popish pretensions, he has now resolved on introduc ing a Bill, with that view, immediately on the re-assembling. of Parliament. fhe insasure, it is said, will completely defeat the designs of the Roman Pontiff. We can also state, that the audacity of the Pope, in this matter, has occasioned other feelings than those of surprise in a high quarter, and that the way in which it is there regarded has not been without its influence in inducing the Premier thus promptly to make up his mind to deal, with the energy which the case demands, with the Pope's astounding assumption of authority in Eng land. ;he precise nature of the intended mea,ure is not yet known ; but we have been informed, from what we regard as good authority, that one of its provisions will subject any party to pains and penalties who, either verbally or by writing, addresses by the titles of archbishop or bishop any of the newly•created Romish hierarchy. Advertiser. MOVEMENT OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHIJECH ry LlVERPOOL.—Yesterday a Te Deunt was sung at all the Catholic churches and chapels in Liverpool in thanksgiving for the restoration of the Catholic- hierarchy in England. Dr. Brown was not present at any of the services, owing to indisposition. We understand that no steps will be taken towards the enthronement of Dr. Brown as bishop of Liver pool for some time at least, but the ceremony is not indis pensabi.e, and the Doctor now acts as bishop of the see. Dr. Brown, bishop of Shropshire, has already taken possession of Cheshire, formerly under the jurisdiction of. his namesake of Liverpool. We are informed, also, that the clergy cf St. .Nicolzs have opened a mission in Spitalfielde, where the Rcsary is recited, and a discourse deliverd, every Wednes day evening, in the school-room fitted up some time since by the Rev. James Nugent. The object of these services is to give religious instruction to such people as absent themselves from the services of the church. Liverpool THE DIOCESE Or CANTERBURY . — We are in formed that the Archdhcons of Canterbury and Maidstone are taking steps for a united movement of the clergy of the metropolitan diocese in addresses to the Queen and the Archbishop, in reference to the recent appointment by the Pope of a Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster. The clergy of the city and liberties of Westminster have already ad dressed their diocesan, as have also the clergy of the Arch deaconry of London ; and in the Archdeaconry of Middlesex there is a declaration in course of signature. There is a strong r ising everywhere on the s u bj ec t.

He has left the whole of his property for ever (which was not strictly entailed) to Mrs. Burt. MANSLAUGHTIZR IN LIVERPOOL—An act Of gross violence resulting in death occurred on Saturday in Liver pool. It appears that a poor woman, named Mack, residing in St. Martin's-street, at the head of Limekiln-lane, raffled a silk handkerchief to enable her to pay the expenses of a journey to Manchester. About forty of the neighbours were in the raffle, the subscription being a penny each. A man named Callaghan was stakeholder. The handkerchief being raffled was won by Patrick Caffrey, a labourer, residing in No. 14 court, in that street. On Monday evening Callaghan, accompanied by Michael Callaghan, +vent to Caffray's house, contending angrily that the prize had not been fairly won. Caffray shoved them out. On this Michael Callaghan raised a brickbat and threw it at Caffrey. The missile struck him behind the ear. A further attempt was made to stab Caffrey with a pitchfork, but the neighbours interfere], and Michael Callaghan escaped over au adjoining wall. Caffrey was conveyed to the Northern Hospital. He was found to be suffering from a compound fracture of the skull, and con tinued in a delirious state till death relieved him from his sufferings on Friday night. The man Patrick Callaghan was brought up at the coroner's court yesterday.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. General CHANGARNIER has published the following order of the day : " According to the terms of the law, the'army does not deliberate; in virtue of tho regulations of - the army, it is bound to abstain from every demonstration, and utter no cries when under arms. The General-in-Chief reminds the troops placed under his command of these orders. " CHANGARNIER. " Paris, Nov. 2. General-in-Chief." In acting thus General CHANGARNIER has thrown down the gauntlet to the PRESIDENT. It WUS for ordering the division under his command to abstain from uttering cries that General NEuMATER was re moved, and now General CHANGARNIER, in an order of the day, repeats the order of NEUMAYER. It is evidently a challenge to the PRESIDENT to dismiss CHANGARNIER himself. The Evinement states that the PRESIDENT has re fused to receive both M. MOLE and M. THIERS. The same journal states that General CHANGARNIER sur rounds himself in the Tuileries with a faithful body guard, as he is apprehensive of a coup de main. The Committee of Permanence sat again on Sunday. A letter from Melun (Seine et Marne) announces the death of M. DROUYN DE Lsuys, father of the French Ambassador at London.

The accounts of the entry of the Bavarian troops into Hesse ara confirmed, their head-quarters are at Hanau. The following is the proclamation of the Frankfort Commissary, on the entrance of the troops : " Appointed by the Germanic Confederation of the 25th October as civil commissary, and charged with the duty of re-establishing the authority cf the Prince in the Electorate, I publish the following resolution of the Fe deral Assembly:— "'The Government of Electoral Hesse having, on the 15th inst., demanded the assistance of the Diet in order to re-establish legal order in the Electorate, the Diet, in accordance with the 26th and 31st articles of the final Act of Vienna, has adopted the necessary means conformably to the prescription of the ordinance to that effect.' " Inhabitants of Hesse,—lnenterieg your territory, in obedience to this resolution, by order of the Confedera tion, wish the corps d'armee, commanded by the General of the Bavarian cavalry, the Prince of Tour and Taxis, I give you the assurance that the troops shall :nifil their difficult duty with all the consideration that circum stances will allow, and that the expenses inseparable from the military occupation of the country shall be made as light as possible, especially for those who do not oppose the re-establishment of the authority of the Sovereign. I am able to give you this assurance, becatee I know the ginerous spirit which animates the troops and their noble commander. They will show every con sideration compatible with their duty , but they will also put down with inexorable rigour any attempt at re sistance. " The Confederation expects a prompt s.ulani,:sion to the measures they have adopted. It is not only in speedily re-establishing the power of the law that the country will be spared the great sacrifices which a pro longed military occupation imposes upon the inhabitants of Elf ctoral Hesse. The troops which have now entered our country are federal and friendly troops, they cope not to oppress you, but to re - establish order in the , name of the Confederation, solicited to come by your Sovereign, and they will restore to you the benefits of regular and legal government. Charged with the execu tion of this task, as civil commissary of the Confedera tion, I invite, with a full conviction of my respon-ibility, all the authorities and all the subjects of the electorate to obey the ordinances which I shall issue, and all dispositions which I shall make in virtue of the mandate of the Confederation. I shall make justice prevail everywhere. The people of Elec toral Hesse have always been distinguished by their love of order, their fidelity, and their devotion to the reigning dynasty; they have proved once more that they possess these qualities, and that they take no part in the machi nations of some great cities of the Electorate that wish to deprive the Government of the power of ruling over them, and the people will close their ears to the insinua tions of malevolent agitators. "If I should be deceived in my expectations I shall feel myself compelled to crush, by all the means placed in my hands by the Confederation, the disposition to re sistance, and the guilty must take the consequence of the bad fictions. " I3anau, Nov. 1, 1850. "In the name of the Germanic Confederation. (Signed) "Count de RECLIDERG," The Cologne Gazette of the 2d says : "The expectation of as amicable adjustment between Austria and Prussia will, in all likelihood, be realised. It appears that at the Warsaw conferences the Czar stated his determination to remain neutral in the affairs of Germany, but that in the event of a war between the great powers of Germany, he should occupy Hungary and Gallicia with his own troops. The Holstein affair he regarded as a European question, and would not hesitate at direct interference, inasmuch as he regards the Holsteiners as well as the Hessians as rebels. He guarantees the return of that state of things which existed previous to 1848, and expressed his preference for those powers who would put a stop to the preseLt state of things. A letter from Berlin of the 31st ult. in the Cologne Gazette says : " M. de Persigny, Ambassador of France, has declared to M. de Radowitz that France will favour the policy of Prussia in the German question, as it would be contrary to all her t e ndencies to allow absolutism to advance to its last limit. Constitutional Prussia, he has added, is the natural ally of France against the absolutism of Austria, protected by Russia. These words have produced a more favourable impression from having been unex pected. Yesterday the King went to pay a visit to M. de Radowita. This unusual visit has canted great sensation." _ ---------- Another Berlin letter of the same date in the same journal says " The Russian note which the Government received on the 28th ult. is expressed, it is said, in very categoric terms on the intentions of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh and states that a cases beta would be justifiable on the' part of Austria in CASC Prussia should, by its troops or subsidies, rt stst the efforts of that power tending to the re-establisbineut of legal order iu the parts of Germany which are alway s a prey to the revolutionary movement. at the sa me t i me o f t h e movements o f in Wolhy n i a , P o d o li a , an d P o l an d, to troops in the oper a ti ons o f t h e A ustr i an army ." sTuhp Russian support rtc note ITALY.

The only additional evidence now was that of Mr. Collins, the surgeon, who deposed that Goriwin had received a wound in the cheek an inch long, li m ited in depth by the cheek bone resisting the knife. There were two or three small wounds on the upper part of the nose and another on the lower angle of the ear; lie (the officer) had had a very nar row escape of his life.
