Blum 0 T= 2UBLiti The Saturday Review deems that the first evening of the great-and long looked for debate in the-Lords on the Irish Church fully justified the opinion of those who expected that the great issues involved would be discussed in a spirit and with a force worthy of the occasion. Nothing absolutely new was said or could be said on a subject that has- already occupied the attention of so many political leaders for so many nights this session in the House of Commons. But novelty may spring, not only from what is said, but from the men who are the speakers, and in this kind of novelty the debate in the Lords was singularly .! rich. It was.new that the arguments of the supporters of the bill should receive the countenance of two speakers , who have been Lord-Lieutenants of Ireland ; it was new that the case of the Government and of all the opponents of the bill should be in the hands of a man like Lord , Derby, who was evidently in honest thorough earnest when he said what he had to say ; it was new to hear the opinions of bishops who could speak for themselves and their Church, and make the most of the cry that the Church is in danger. But the Opposition, even when represented by the two Lord-Lieutenants, had the least novelty on their side, and were under the disadvantage of addressing an assembly openly hostile to them, and deter mined to outvote them whatever they might say. All that the Lord-Lieutenants could add of their own per sonal knowledge to the debate was the expression of their conviction that Irish disaffection saw a constant source of provocation in the existence of the Irish Establishment, and that they themselves considered that this feeling of irritation was, under the circumstances, reasonable and legitimate. Lord Grey suggested the obvious reply that it is dangerous in itself and most unworthy of England to grant to the menaces of loafing Americans and of a rabble of half-armed peasantry what it denied to equity and logic. This is a good argument so far as it goes. Yet it admits of a satisfactory reply in the case of the Irish Church. Disaffection must produce some effect on those against whom it is directed, and unless they are pre pared to govern by sheer military tyranny, it taus; make them seriously reflect whether there is .any good ground for the existence of hostility to the government which they administer. What are the grounds of Irish disaffection? They are, first, that Ireland is not an independent country. England has considered this, and has honestly come to the conclusion that the independence of Ireland would be not only most disadvantageous to Ireland itself, but incom patible with the safety of England. Having come to this conclusion, we are prepared to defend it ; and if the Irish tried to assert their independence—which is most unlikely . ---we should repress them by force with a clear conscience. The next great cause of Irish disffection is the system on which the land is held. Immediately the question of Irish land is seriously examined, it is seen to be one of much complication of detail. We are quite ready to help the Irish to a better system of land tenure if we can see our way to it, but there is no definite simple proposal that we can put before ourselves to adopt or reject. The third cause of Irish disaffection is the existence of a State Church which does not accord with the religious belief of any but a trifling minority of the people, which is a badge of con quest, and which is very rich either because it has got hold of the property once belonging to the ecclesiastical body that still commands the adherence of the bulk of the population, or because it received great grants of land from Protestant conquerors, in order that it might act as a Protestant garrison. On considering this ground of dis affection, the English people, if they are fairly repre sented by the present House of Commons, have come to the conclusion that they have not justice on their side. They are, therefore, prepared to carry out justice when they see that justice is due from them ; and this was the substance of the reply of Lord Clarendon to the attack of Lord Grey. It is true that by disestablishing the Irish Church we shall not satisfy the Fenians. They will cry aut for a revision of the land system and for Irish lade pendence. But we shall be in a very different position when meeting their cries. We shall be able to enforce patience and fairness - on them while we are seeing what ought to be done about the land, and we shall use guns and bayonets with infinite sorrow, but with a tranquil conscience, if any foolish fanatics are silly enough to set up an independent Ireland. The first impression produced on the mind of the writer • in the Spectator by the great debate in the Lords, especially on a Church question, was the impression of the accom plished nonchalance of that distinguished assembly. Even Lord Granville's speech in moving the second reading of the Suspensory Bill, a speech powerful in argument, lucid in statement, and happy in illustration, gave, in manner, the same impression which was given by the debate in general, that their lordships stand a little above the point at which these questions appear of vital interest to those who dis cuss them. The first night's debate in the Lords on the political step which has so deeply moved the House of Commons, was rather of the nature of a distinguished and elaliorate chat over matters of great moment. Lord Granville gave this impression much more by the easy and agreeable manner which is so characteristic of him—the manner which makes him the complement of Mr. Glad stone—than by his speech, which was, as we said, full of weighty reasoning and convincing illustration. Lord Grey, a'-most atone, did not give this impression at all, but not because he seemed to enter into the matter with a more profound sense of its moral importance than other peers ; ratle r, on the other hand, because be felt an im mense and absorbing interest in the didactic duty which he had allotted to himself of reproving and disheartening his Liberal friends. Lord Malmesbury restored the full force of this impression by his lazy and dawdling talk against the bill, and the resentful personalities of the reproaches which, on behalf of her Majesty's Government, he directed against the Opposition—more iu the manner of good Dr. Watts's sluggard, who says, " you have waked me too soon, I must slumber again," than in the manner of the spokesman of a Government caring at all about the principles involved. Lord Clarendon was vigorous and- animated,' but his animation was the anima tion of a man who had got hold of weak opponents and enjoyed pummelling them. Lord Derby, who, of course, spoke the speech of the evening, was as perfectly in earnest as it is in his way to be, but then it is only in his way - to be in earnest in defending party and privileges. There is no breadth of political feeling about him. Lord Kimberley answered him com pletely enough, but even Lord Kimberley was unable to divest himself of the drawing-room thrust-and-parry manner which is so characteristic - of the peers ; and only the Bishop of London seemed to us.to speak with the weight and gravity of manner befitting the subject, though-what he said was conspicuous for its plausibility, was obviously in defence of an order, and was on ' the wrong side. Still he was the only speaker on 'Thursday night who spoke with the practical, weighty air of the House of Commons, and without that tournament style so curiously characteristic of the House of Lords. As to Lord Derby's party arguments, they are too contemp tible to need answer. He talks of Mr. Gladstone as a " would-be Minister," and of " personal ambition " as the motive of what he is now doing,—and this though Lord Derby himself confessed that he brought in the Reform Bill of 1.867 " for the chance of maintaining his position." It is simply offensive for a Minister who has made publicly such an announcement as that, to try and blacken his opponents with the imputation of party motives. Lord Granville has told us that Mr. Gladstone, in expectation of the fall of the Conservative Ministry last year, believed it to he the duty of the Liberal Ministry that would succeed it to deal with the Irish Church, and with that view opened the question to his colleagues. This is alone sufficient to clear him from Lord 13( rby's taunts. A: Liberal Ministry undertaking such a task would have loaded itself with a frightful difficulty, instead of winning like Lord Derby another " chance of maintaining its position." The Imperial Reriew lays down that Lord Derby's arguments on that aspect of Mr. Gladstone's Irish Church policy which concerns the rights of property were really unanswerable. Can it be believed that the leading journal was serious in asserting that the Established Church is not a corporation . ? We are not, of course, h oun d t o k now what definition of this word is generally accepted in printing-house-square. But Nye are, at l e a s t, sa f e i n affirming that there Is such a thingas a corporationintliis co untry ; the Established Churchis, not only in practical fact, but in legal phraseology, a corporation in a stricter sense than any other in existence. Why, it is a corpora tion of ccrporations. Every bishop, every chapter, nay, every rector or vicar, is a corporation. And the vast association a all these bodies, each having its reco gn i se d legal status and privileges, is, perhaps, the very b es t example which an Englishman could cite to t •ate to a foreigner the meaning of t he term. It is . psible t o f course, - to reg:.rti the Church as a sf?cc!fic, d . ivpie institu tion, or merely s the nation viewed in itsfeligious aspect. But neither tic enthusiastic Ritualist, nor the most advanced thinker of the Broad Church school, would ever dream of deuving what is patent to V2(3 eyes of everybody who has the smallest smattering of the English law, that the Established Church of England and Ira;and i. in tie eye of the law, and iii tie nuieei:e.l acceptation of the teini, a corporation. It is cnrion,4 to oi:strve on Wll:tr, small points a great con troversy n::. j% tans. It is scarcely too much to say that in this diference between Lord Prrby and the accorn pi Acil critic who has thus cianinciitt d upon his speech, lies the whole question of Church endowments now so fiercely disputed, throughout the length and breadth of this conntry. Indeed, the only other part of the common case made out against Establishments which appears to lie beyond the scope of this inquiry is the Liberal axiom, that what Pat-II:In-a has given Parliament can take away. It wilthe difficult, we imagine, for those who lay stress upon this principle to shew on what ground the Dukes of Marlborough and Wellington can set up a title to Blenheim and Stratlifieldsaye which may not be slim. warily set aside by the Legislature. Nor—ii we ro eto go lick t.d. the times of those sovereigns who originall3 en dowed the Church, both in England and Ireland, and to assume that what the State in their persons did, the State in the shape of a parliamentary majority is ju.3 , ifiA in undoing—will there be wanting good excuse for the confiscation of all landed property which cannot s! e a title anterior to the establishment of Christianity in either - HER MAJESTY'S LEVER. A levee was held yesterday at St. James's Palace by his Royal Highnees the Prince of Wales, on behalf of her Majesty. Tho Prince of Wales, attended by his Gentle men in Waiting, was escorted from Marlborough House to . St. James's Palace by a detachment of the Royal Horse Guards, and was met by the Duke of Cambridge, Prince Christian, and other distinguished persons. Her Ma jesty's Body Guard of the Hon. Corps of Gentlemen at Arms was on duty in the state saloons, under the cemteaud of the Marquis of Exeter, the captain. The Royalßody Guard of the Yeomen of the Guard was on duty under the command of Earl Cadogan, the captain. The Prince of Wales, on entering the Throne-room, was attended by the officers of her Majesty's household, &c. ,The Diplomatic. Circle was attended by Ambassnlors and Foreign Ministers, and the General Circle by the Right Hon. B. Disraeli, M.P., the linit Lord of the Treasury ; the Right Hon. Gathorne Hardy, M.P., Homo Secretary ; Lord Stanley, M.P., Foreign Secretary ; Sir John Jakington, Minister at War ; Sir Stafford Northcote, Bart., Secretary of State for India; the Duke of Buckingham, tho Duko of Marlborough, the Duke of Richmond, the Earl of Mayo, and other members of the Go vernment; also by General Sir W. Knollys, the Hon. A. Fitzmaurice, and others. The number of presentations was considerable. This is the last levee of the season. THE MILITIA RESERVE. The regulations for the militia reserve were issued yes terday morning. Those in relation to men enlisted under the Act of last session, drawn up in accordance with the power given to the Secretary of State, include the follow ing :—Tho volunteering of the men will take place during the annual period of training. The enlistment and attes tation of men volunteering for the reserve will be con- , ducted by the adjutants and non-commissioned officers of the permanent staff of the militia. The maximum ago at which men will be accepted for the militia reserve will bo thirty. They must measure thirty-three inches round the chest, and must not be under five feet four inches in height. Men enlisted in. the .militia-reserve will, until summoned to enter upon army s , :rvice, be required to fulfil all conditions of service attaching to an ordinary militia engagement, and will only be released from attending the annual training of their militia regimen's with the consent of their commanding offi cer. When luau skull bo required fur army service they will receive not:co. thereof, and any man not appearing at the time and place indicated in the notice will be liable to be apprelket.l4l and punished as a deserter from the army. Any men retained upon army service for any period beyond the - expiration of their engagement of five years, under the provision of the third clause of the act, will reckon such peri id In dimintelon of any subsequent engagement. Men serving in the reservewill,ivad lition to ordinarymili tia bounty and gratuity, receive the sum of £1 for every yearly training whether with their militia regiment or with any portion of her Majesty's regular rainy. Mon who have completed four years' service in the ordinary militia previously to enlist ment into the militia reserve will, if approved fur the re serve, be entitled by the a'lvantages granted by regulation to men re-enrolled in the ordinary militia. SUNDAY EVENINGS FOR THE PEOPLE. In the sittings in banco in the Court of Common Pleas, yesterday, before Justice Willes and Justice Byles, the case of P. g. v. Baxter Langley, which involved the ques tion of the legality of the " Sunday evenings for the people," came on for hearing. The Hon. George • Denman, Q.C., in opening the case, said that he aprreared to ash for the enforce ment of the penalties rtquired by various sections of the Ist of the 23rd George 111. Two points were involved, the first being as to the legality of the Sunday evenings for - the people, of which the defendant was the promoter. St. Martin's Hall (the learned counsel stated) had been registered as a place where a religious body held their meetings on Sundays. From threepence to half a crown was charged for admission to .about two thirds of the whole area of the hall, whilst to the remain- - ing third the public were admitted without any charge. The " entertainment " consisted of singing such pieces as the "Stabat Mater," and addresses by Mr. Langley. On one occasion Sir Johii BeWring leetureil 'on 1 7 Siam and the Siamese." These entertainments, it was contended, were illegal, the Act providing a penalty of £2OO for every such entertainment. Mr: Denman said that the de fendant contended that at the meetings the people were instructed ; but, he argued, even supposing that to be the case, it was really not a religious meeting, but a place where there were provided entertain ments and amusements. If this could be proved; the defendant would be brought within the power of the law, especially as a charge was made for entrance. No doubt such pieces as " The heavens are telling," the " Stabat Mater," and others of a like cha racter had an elevating effect ; but they were not sung by the people, but were given by vocal and instrlmental performers. They were not regarded by any present as acts of devotion or worship but simply as a performance of past of an entertainment. The lecture given by Sir John Bowring described most graphically thehabits and manners of the SiLnese, and gave a very excellent description of the country inhabitated by that extra,ord:nary peop!e. This, the learned counsel argued, could not form part of a really rtligions meeting, but was given to the people as an amuse ment. The only religious part was the latter part of the lecture, in which charity to others in re:igiuus matters was recommended. After hearing elaborate arguments on both sides, the lourt reserved its decision. THE FIRES ON THE YORKSHIRE MOORS. The fires which have been reported on the Yorkshire moors were still smouldering on Friday, though their fur ther destructive progress is believed to be arrested. Nearly 4,000 acres of moorland has been left black and desolate, with probably scarcely - a living bird, or animal, or vege table, excepting the largest trees, over the wide expanse. The young grouse and rabbits which abound on these moors have been totally destroyed, and sheep grazing thereon have in some instances perished. The cause of the fires is not, it is believed, as was alleged, the sparks emitted from a railway engine on the Rosedale branch. line near the Cleveland-hils, a little south-east of the Tees, though one of the fires was firs.t, pbseyvefl on Monday, the 15th instant, in that locality. As fires are not unusual on the moors in the summer tune, no notice was taken of it for some days, until it had gut such a hold as has no pre vious parallel, and it was found almost impossible to compass it with a view of putting it out. Here about 3,00) acres were devastated. At about the same time a moor belonging to the Marquis of Ailesbury to the east of Northallerton, which is eight miles distant from the former moors, was observed to be on fire at a point about a mile distant from any fire or railway. This has given rise to the impression that owing to the dryness of the weather, through the drought, with their simul taneous appearance, the fire must have arisen from spontaneous combustion. Lord Feversham, Lord Boyne, and Lord De Lisle and Dudley, are the chief sufferers. Though the destruction of grouse has been great, the great bulk of Yorkshire moorland lying to the north-west remains intact and promises well.

MURDER OF A COURIER.—The courier of a Rus sian family was barbarously murdered on the 14th inst. at the fashionable watering-place of Ems. His body was found early in the morning lying on the second floor of the Hotel du Prince des Galles, where the family in whose service the unfortunate man was occupied apartments. head had been struck twice with some weapon, probably an axe, one of his eyes bad been torn from its socket, and the marks of nails were visible on the neck. No motive has been assigned for the crime, as the money and watch of the murdered man were untouched. A baker at Newport. has been convicted in a rather remarkable way of adulterating his bread. 1p had told his assistant that he had obtained a patent for making bread look whiter than usual ; but the man, finding that ho was not to be admitted into the secret, but was to mix the dou,Ji with a compound which his master rrepared ov,rnight, contrived, on the first orp 'trinity to fill a 'small bottle with some of the mysterious ingredient; which, on being tested, proved to be merely a solution of carbonate of lime. ll'rcovor, the great experiment itself did not rn,wer, and iLen the cunning I , l*ow, afr.dd of the come quei,..:ye, went bon' , and wrotc a sul mu letter to l is mast r, sad log th":t he " fir not 'o come to his establisnmect any more." lie t,,en gave at:on to the rolico, nod tt.e rnte;:t- C:11410 to grief by the baker bAnrz fitted .£2 d C. ~"S.

Wednesday was the anniversary of the ac cession of the Pope, on which occasion a ( 1 Papale is held in the Sistine Chapel. Cardinal Reisach sang the Mass ; after it his Holiness received the congratulations of the Cardinals ; for whom Cardinal Patrizi, Dean of the S. College, was spokesman. The sense of his address was, that after witnessing so lately the signal proofs of guardianship which God has thrown round His Church, it was im possible to donbt of the ultimate triumph of the Holy Sec. The Pope received their good wishes with undisguised emotion, bid them be of good cheer, told them that the struggle be tween good and evil was no new thing—it dated from the foundation of the world; neither was it strange that it should make itself felt with the most intense violence in Rome, where it was but to be expected the enemy of the human race should strive to make of the centre of Catholic unity a centre of abomination. He finally exhorted them to be fervent in prayer, and abound in good works, and in all things worthy of the Holy City. The celebration of the anniversary of the coronation is observed with greater ceremony on the 21st, the senator, municipality, and the corps diplomatique, attend to offer their congratulations, and the town is illuminated for two evenings. The Consistory will be held the next day. In addition to the matter of the Council, and the Austrian question, as I have already stated, several bishops will be nominated, including three or four for Mexico. The sentences, not in themselves heavy, lately passed by the Tribunal of the Consulta on the persons variously implicated in the affair of last autumn, will be many of them com muted on this occasion, among them being Pagliano Sacchi, of Viterbo, whom the Flo rence papers falsely announced had been con demned to death. A merciful and liberal arrangement maybe, but one which is likely to make additional work for the army. Already enlisting dep3ts are again in full activity as last autumn at Orvieto, Terni, Rieti, and all along the frontier, putting forth every endeavour to lure the young and rest less into their snares. They afford a safe re treat, too, for the disbanded remnants left to their own. resources by the rout at Mentana and the brigands who are being vigorously hunted out of the Papal territory. The popu lation looks on with a jealous eye, and there are plenty who keep Government well informed of all that is going on._ Our troops have had several smart encoun ters with the brigands lately, for this is the season of the year most favourable to the mode of life necessary to their career. The most audacious band was that of one Bianchi, who made Velletri its centre of operations. The week before last he sent an order to the to bacconist of Lariana, a village in the neigh bourhood, to . send him a supply of tobacco and ten scuds in money. The tobacconist, instead of satisfying his demand, applied to the gen darmes for protection, and when the band came to gather in the forced loan, they found a party of soldiers ready to receive them. The brigands were in stronger force than was expected, and the major part contrived to make good their escape, having killed the brigadier of the troop. About the same time they had kidnapped a lad, the son of a tailor, at Velletri, and demanded a heavy ransom for him of• his father, which the poor fellow only met by the greatest privations. On Satur day, the band was known to be in the woods of Caserta, on the borders of the Pontine Marshes. While a detachment of Zouaves and gendarmes was beating the wood, a shepherd, from whom Bianchi had taken a little barrel of wine, brought information of the position of his party to the military, who came upon them as they were drinking under the trees. The brigands, ever on the alert, and moreover well armed, and probably trained to some know ledge of fighting in the ranks of our invaders last year, made a desperate resistance. Bianchi, however, received his death-wound from the musket-ball of a Belgian corporal of Zouaves. Two others were killed and two wounded, the rest being either taken or dispersed. The dead bodies were carried into Velletri in a buffalo cart, to be exposed in the public piazza. The lad they had captured recognized them at'once, and great was the rejcicmo• ° of the people at the deliverance, and great the popularity of the military. Bianchi wore a dress which would not dis grace the wardrobe of a first-class theatre. Round the crown of his high-pointed hat he carried a twist of ribbons of many colours, from the ends of which hung a number of rings, the result of his depredations. In his pockets were found between two and three thousand scudi. Another of the fellows who was wounded slightly feigned his death agony so cleverly, and prayed so earnestly to be left to breathe his last as he lay on the ground, that a mer ciful gendarme did his best to compose him to rest, and left him at peace. The troops were, however, but a little distance on their way when he was seen to start to his feet and make good his escape with remarkable strength of limb. Eight or ten Garibaldian emissaries, de nounced by the men of the company of Cacciatori, stationed at Civita Castellana, for tampering with them, endeavouring to obtain information from them, and induce them to desert, were sent up last week to Castel S. Angelo. Twenty-seven Canadian volunteers for the Zonaves arrived here on Wednesday. The heavy rains on the mountains for more than a week past have delayed the troops en tering into their camp at Rocca di Papa. Some of the huts have been washed away, and all the approaches rendered almost impractic able. We may expect a steady season of fine weather after this, when the mischief will be speedily repaired. The Roman Legion and the Cacciatori will be the first to take up their quarto: s there ; they will . be accompanied by their excellent chaplain, Mgr. Bastide. Cardinal Borromeo took possession on Mon clay, being S. Vito's day, of his titular Church of SS. Vito e Modesto, near the arch of Gal lienus. It occupies the site of the 3iacellun2 Livianum, named after his consort by Augustus, who founded it. Afterwards it was popularly called .2 1 rlacellion, Martyrum, because it had be come the scene of many martyrdoms, and it yet preserves among its treasures a pietra scelerata, a stone on which many holy martyrs were killed. Stephen 111. opened it for Chris tian worship in 768, and S. Gregory I. made it a Cardinal-deacon's title. The last to bear it was Cardinal Tosti, who died three or four years ago. He did a good deal for the em bellishment of the place, but it is thought Cardinal Borromeo will do more to develop the interest of this most interesting relic of antiquity. The precincts are very small, and could scarcely contain the throng of attendant clergy and people, though access was only given sparingly and by tickets. lADVEttrlsEmsx7.]—Avc.)iti Medicates: they al :vats aggravate chronic c:implaAuts: but Da Barry's delicious health-restoring Beva.enta Ar.thica Food, which yields three times the nour.sh mem of the bent moat, saves 50 times its cost in other retne,dies. an 1 invariably restores perfect digestion, strong nerves, sound lungs, healthy liver, pure blood, refreshing sleep, functional regularity, an:' energy to the Most disordered or enfeebled.

In the desire to effect the disestab!isliment of the Protestant Church in Ireland, Cathelics, before all things, ought to be on their guard that Catholic principles on the relations be tween the Civil and the Supernatural Powers, suffer no detriment. There is no small danger lest in the coming contests the great maxims sanctioned by the Church should, either through ignorance be overlooked altogether, or perverted out of party spirit. Catholics cannot lawfully make such a sacrifice to please either Whigs or Tories, to abolish or to pre serve the Irish Establishment. It is one of our privileges as Catholics to be consistent, not to have two weights and measures ; it is one of our advantages to possess a chart to guide us on questions of principle, when our opponents are too often hopelessly at sea. Nothing is more distressing, therefore, than to see Catholics forego their advantages, and, in imitation of their more luckless neigh bours, beat about for a view or a principle. In the Tablet of last week, for instance, we see statements put forward that there are a cer• tain number of Catholics in Englan I and Ireland who adopt the un-Catholic theory of the Weekly Register, to which several weeks ago we called attention, that the union between the Catholic Church and the State is, except in the Papal States, essentially evil. This view the Tablet calls intelli g ible, and skil fully endeavours to contrast to its own ad vantage a theory condemned by the Church with its own grotesque theory that the Ency clical and Syllabus forbid the destruction of heretical Establishments. We believe in truth that the Catholics of these kingdoms repudiate alike the condemned theory put for ward by the Weekly Register as to the separa tion of Church and State, and the grotesque absurdities about the Syllabus advanced by the Tablet as an argument on behalf of the Irish Establishment. Putting aside the Whig pririciple and the Tory plea, English and Irish Catholics, with honest and intelligible straightforwardness, will be found, we believe, to declare them selves against the maintenance of an unjust and heretical Establishment in Ireland, and in favour of the union and co-operation in Catholic countries of the Civil and Spiritual Powers. They do not cease to regard as a crime the conduct of the revolutionary State in Italy towards the Church, in casting her out of the government of the country, and delivering over the people to the guid ance of a godless rule. Such an act on the part of those now in power in Italy is a vio lation of justice and of the principle that the Civil Power is bound, out of regard to the highest end for which it was insti tuted by God, to seek the aid and guidance, and submit to the decrees of the Superna tural Power, in all matters affecting the moral and spiritual interests of its subjects. Catho lics can never agree to the irreligious principle that the Civil Power, caring only for the material interests and the police government of a nation, should forego all active co-opera tion with the Supernatural Order in the higher aims of life. But such a co-operation can only be fully and cordially effected by a close and intimate alliance between the two powers. It is no argument against this union that abuses have too often crept in and injured the end it was meant to serve. The union be tween Church and State has been likened to . matrimony, but the abuses which have some times dishonoured matrimony are no argu ments against the institution. Of course, where the- State apostatizes, there can be no union between itself and the Church, but the State is nevertheless bound, according to its lights, to promote the spiritual welfare of its subjects. But, on the other hand, there is no obligation imposed upon subjects to accept a creed or a church at the hands of the Civil Power. Men are only bound to accept religi ous truth from the Supernatural Power imme diately ordained of God for the purpose of teaching the nations, and hence it is, and under a mistaken sense of duty, that conflict may arise, and confusion in some minds, as is, perhaps, the case now, in regard to the Irish Establishment. But the State, an apostate from the Supernatural Power, has no right to enforce a false religion on a Catholic people. To do so is a violation of justice, as well as an act of direct rebellion against the Church of God. Heretical establishments have no right as against Catholics. If they be tolerated, it is only out of expediency, or out of appre hension lest their removal should clearly lead to worse results than their maintenance. To appeal, in their behalf, to Catholic princi ples, to the teaching of the Encyclical and Syllabus, is an absurd fiction, or a hollow pretext. Even the religious principle, in Government, which in some sort the Anglican Establishment represents, may be too dearly bought by impressing on the national mind a false and degraded idea of religion. For the religion which the Anglican Establishment now presents as the ideal of perfection to the people, a more and human more opinion ndo g in the place of Divine revelation. By aiding in is m a a t s i s c u e in h i a n r g ac e t v e e r r , y an d d ay putting the abolition of such an Establishment, Catho lics are not so much weakening a Catholic principle as giving a blow to religious Liberal ism in its securest stronghold, and clearing the way for the entrance of a higher idea of religion into the national mind. 44 At any rate, in these discussions let us re sist the attempt to throw dust into the eyes of Catholic electors, let the issues be clearly and plainly put, and we have not the slightest doubt that the Catholics of these kingdoms will do their duty in the coming elections, without in the least transgressing Catholic principles. In aiding in the abolition, then, of the Irish Establishment, Catholics are not, as we have shown, giving support to the con demned theory of the separation of Church and State. Neither in supporting Mr. Glad stone's Resolutions against the heretical estab lishment in Ireland, are they identifying them selves in principle or making common cause with Garibaldi and the Italian revolution, in the impious attempt against the civil rights and status of the Catholic Church in Italy, .or acting in any manner, as is pretended, against the teaching of the Syllabus. What they are doing is simply to aid in removing an heretical establishment, forced by violense on .a Catholic nation, and maintained only by an act of flag rant injustice. Far from encouraging more over, religious liberalism by this act, the abolition of such establishments will greatly lessen its hold and influence on the country. On every motive, then, Catholics, undeterred by phantom objections evoked from the Syl labus; may act together, and combine with others for the overthrow of the Irish Establish ment.—Westininster Gazette. The pine apple crop in the West Indies has never been finer than this year. Already 72,000 dozen have been imported to New York, the value of which is stated to be $138,210, and the aggregate retail value at $345,600, including bananas and cocoa nuts. The whole value of importation this season is estimated at about $1,000,000. On the first of next month the disbursement of geld by the United States Government will be unprece dentediy large. The total is stated at £7,800,000, and pro bably at least a fourth of this will be on European account. The sum of .£1,700,000 is required to pay off G per Cent.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. (From the Anglo-America:l Tinrs) Among the bills just passel by Congress is one prolonging the existence of the Freedmen's Bureau for another year. Another of interest has been intro.luced to divi.le Texts into three S'ate.-3. On this subject the Spring,i2lllZ-vublican thus writes : " The division proposed in the bill will follow the gene ral line of the Trinity and Colorado rivers ; the eastern section, bounded west by the former river; to be called East Texas; the south-western, bounded north by the Colorado, South Texas ; and the central, and much the larger portion, retaining the name and present State Go vernment of Texas. The reasons and advantage urged in favour of the p trtition at this - time are that the people of the State desire it, and have petitioned for it, and that the State Constitutional Convention is circa ly in session and the preliminaries for the organisation of the new States can be much more readily and satisfactorily accomplished than at any other time. The bill provides that the present delegates shall form the new constitu tions, which shall be ratified, and the States admitted in the same general terms as the Reconstructing States. .The project of dividing Texas has long been ono of Thad. Stevens's pets, and he has taken an opportunity favour able for its success." Three revolutionary movements are progressing in Mexico against Juarez, and gieretaro, strangely enough, is the healqu irters of that in favour of Santa Anna. The tern others who heal the more extensive movements are Ortega and Porfirio Diaz, but besides these there are numerous minor revolts. Diaz has been removed from his divisional com mand, and Santa Anna was reported to be organiz ing an expedition at Brownsville in support of the rising in his favour at Qaaretaro. A band of 700 Juarists were cut to pieces in Campeache by the Indians. Juarez, besides the internal troubles, has to meet urgent demands made by the United States creditors of Mexico, an 1 the best way he can do this is to adopt the spendthrift's system and ask fur more; and for this purpose we venture to say he has sent Romero to Washington. General Buchanan announced on the 6th inst. the result of the Municipal elections iu Louisiana, and directed the installation of the New Orleans officials on the 10th instant, and these of other cities on the seventh day after the receipt of the order. Bat Mayor Heath, who was appointed by Sheridan, refused to give up the office to Conway, the Mayor elect. Heath was arrested, but paroled on Conway being put into possession. Ile affirms the illegality of General Buchanan's, action as Congress had confirmed his appointment. General Buchanan has been flying at higher game in that hotbed of political and municipal suabbles, New Orleans. Ile is at open war with the Board of Re gistration, wh contrary t) his orders, notified to the newly elected State officials that the new Con - stitution requires them to take possession of their offices on June 15, alel also directing the recently elected Legislature to meet on the 221, without waiting for Gen. Bishanan's promised order. The Board Was arrested, bat released on orders from Washington, and Congress will have to settle the dispute. The Texas Constitutional Convention has passed a resolution asking Congress to allow it to appoint boards of registra tion, in order to avoid the interference of the General,. whom 80:113 of the members denounce as a " Copperhead." The full vote in the recent Florida. election was 21,319 in a total registration of 31,498, and the Republican majority was 4,026. The Republican majority in: the Legislature on joint ballot is 30. Democratic State Conventions were held in New Jersey on the 10th instant, as well as is Tennessee. The latter declares for green-back redemption and for taxi,- tion of the bonds, but the former denounces all forms of repuliation, insisting upon the good faith of the Government being maintained both at home and abroad, and demands the gold pay neat of the public debt. Delegates were chosen to the New York National Convention, and a resolution passed that New Jersey would feel honoured by the nomination of Ju Igo Joel Parker for the Presidency. The Democratic Conventions of Connecticut and New Hampshire have also elected delegates. The Con necticut delegates are directed to vote for Ilancoek or Chase, but not for Pendleton. Tae Western Uaioa Telegr ipli Company sub mitted their case to Judge Porter, who, after a thorough ex iminatioti of the law on the subject, gives it as his opini )n that the powers of Congress are supreme and indisputable, an 1 that, therefore, leg illy, the Impeachment M viagers had the right to seiz ; and tl3'3 private telegrams. Now, knowing such to be the law, it is proposed to introduce a system for the protection of cuito.ners from the seizure of their priv ite messages. Tee plan is to give receipts feoni the sender and receiver, to secure the company against litigatiotat; the sender then withdrawing the confidential message, instead of, as before, leaving it in the company's possession, when no evidence of the contents of the despatch wonl 1 remain in the office. It is strange to find private corporations devising schemes to protect their clients from the despotic . acts of Congress. A dis;ussion has been carried on in America re garding the right of criticising the vote of the Senate as.a Court of Impeachment. The constitution of the Court is so unusual and exceptional that much might be said on both sides, but we hold to the ruling of . Chief Justice Cockburn in Risk Allah's case versus the Daily Teleyrap7t, that the public are bound to accept the verdict of a jury in a criminal case, as people at a distance who do not see thee taiinatioa of witnesses as well as hear, cannot be fully informed by any report, and therefore, presuming the brains to be qua', they cannot be so well qualified to deliver an opinion. It is clear from this case that a man whose in locence was conclusively proved may be represented to all England as a murderer, simply because a correspondent of a very powerful organ conceived the idea that he was guilty. Now this is manifestly unfair, for the man is then tried by two tribunals. It is useless also to discuss the verdicts of acquittal in criminal cases unless it be susceptible of proof that the jury was bribed, and we cannot see what good is likely to result from abusing the Republican Senators who voted against conviction. Until they are shown to have had cor rupt motives the presumption is that they had no t only pure motives, but were nicking a great sacri fice to conscience and duty, and for once we ap prove of the New York " m)b of roughs" who compelled the gribsse to take down the list of these SenatOrs' names which had been pasted up under the head of " Traitors." We have so often alluded to ;the Colorado River that those who read this paper cannot fail to have some knowle age of its hitherto - obscure course. The citizens of California and. Nevada have lately been working earnestly to utilize it for the development of the Pacific States.. Steamers were placed on its waters, and now a company has been formed with a capital of $1,500,000 to construct a railway from a point in Southern Nevada - where the Central Pacific Railroad runs along the valley of the Humboldt to the head of the river navigation. This will open a Southern exit for Ora and bring rising localities into comparatively easy communication with the world. We regard the project as one of vast im- portance, and as calculated to give a great spur to the industrial progress of the mining States. The rapid growth of that portion of the world may be gathered from the fact that during May 6,000 pas- sengers arrived at San Francisco from New York, the largest number ever known during an equal period. Talking of Nevada, there is a pretty little propo sition More Congress for a Glverament grant of $5,000,000 for a s3ven•mle tunnel, the inue4- tal.ked of Satro, to reach tha fa.UOll3 GYII3tOCk lode.

Secretary S;warl has returned to Sweet _Auburn after making as much capital as he could out of his Chinese " lions." 113 is annoyed with Count Bis marck, who, acting on his suggestion to mark the displeasure or his :11•ijesty at B3rlia, recalled Baron Kusserow for fighting the duel, but promoted him to be first Secretary of Legation to the Embassy at ' Lonclen. That there might be no mistake about the intention, Count Lothun, who took the part o! second in the affair, gets the post vacated by Kus serow. This is what the North Germanic Govern ment thinks of duelling. Baron Holstein was Baron Kusserow's predecessor at Washington, and he recalled on account of his intimacy with the family of a leading Senator. Cyrus W. Field dinel with the Cobden Club, as a guest, at the Ship Hotel, Greenwich, last Wed nesday evening. The arrangements for the Grand Banquet to this celebrated gentleman have pro 4reased in a way highly satisfactory to his friends tnd his a Imirers. Lard Russell, Sir Jelin Faking ton, and Sir Stafford Northcote, have signified their intention of taking part in the proceedings. Tue names give the best proof of the estimation in which Mr. Field is held, embracing as they do not only those renowned in every path of science and litera ture, but known to hold every shade of opinion. The Banquet takes place next Wednesday at Willis's Rooms, and for many days applications for places have been refused for want of accommodation, some 330 having been taken. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue, E. A. Rollins, has written a letter to the Secret iry of the Treasury, which shows a deplorable position of affairs iu that Department. In resigning his office he states as the reason, that while he remains he is made responsible for the failures of revenue officers whose incompetence and dishonesty he 1113 fully shown, though he is powerless to remove them or to check their acts. He intimates that after the Phila delphia Convention of 1866 there were numerous removals of assessors an I collectors of internal re venue throtuliont the country for political con siderations, which struck a sad blow 0 the reputa tion andefficiency of theservice as commissioner. He, .would have resigned long ago, but yielded to the • judgment of friend; wh thought that ' the public interests would be prom )ted by his remaining in office. All the nominations since have been made without reference to his opinion of their fitness, and his recommenda tions for removals, even for the grossest miscon duct, were almost universally disregarded. Assistant assessors an:l inspectors were appointed in accord ance with usage by the Secretary upon nominations ; assessors and collectors, either dishonest or incom petent, aid their removal he sees no hope of securing. As he closes with an acknowledgment of the personal and official kindness of the Secre tary, his remarks must point towards the Pre sident. It is dis:ressing to see what Mr. Schenck terms " the soul of his bill" barked by Congress. It has struck out the part erecting the Government bureau into a Department, with the appointing power in the Commissioners. No reform will be effective in the United States that does not make perm tnent alt the civil posts below the heals of Departments conditional only on fitness 'and good behaviour. Even since thesettlement of Impeachment many clerks have been dismissed from some of the Departments, and more are expecting to be discharged ; a low, spiteful, mad system, retaliation being taken against innocent Democratic clerks, on the inauguration of a Republican President ; thus, to the injury of the public service, this vile see-saw is kept up. It clerks were discharged for having" anything to do with politics there might be some sense in it, but to make them active agents, and then to reward them by promotion for success, and punish them by dis missal for failure, is to demoralize a service on which must hinge the well-being of the nation. Senator Grimes, not content with the letter we last week published, though so complete an answer to all the slanders circulated against him, .is about to sue the New York Tribune for its libellous charges of corruption_ on the Impeachment Vote ; and the Cincinnati Gazette for similar libels relating to acts during and since the war, alleged against him as chairman on the Committee for Naval Affairs. There are many who think it would be more advisable to drop the subject, as no one for a moment believed the insane allegations of the New York Tribung, or the vicious ones of the Cincinnati Gazette, or those of any the smaller fry who joined in the howl. Boston, the city of literature, the leader in the formation of American opinion, the abode of science and art, of theology and of juris prudence, was about to mark its sense of the con duct of Senator Fessenden, by tendering to him the compliment of a public dinner. Governor Bullock, ex-Governor Washburne, Presilent Hill of Harvard College, James Russell Lowell, Charles E. Norton, Mr. Dana, Peleg W. Chandler, and A. G. Browne, jun., are among his inten led hosts. The Senator from Maine is held in high esteem throughout New England, and it is the Republicans who desire to pay this mark of respect, not because .. . they have arrived at the same conclusion—for most of them deeply regret the vote he gave on Impeach ment—but to indicate their appreciation of his inde pendence, ability, and good intention, and to condemn the attacks made on his character. Senator Henderson boldly proclaims that he and his six associates are in advance of their party, and, having saved it by their judicious conduct, do not intend to leave it. Putting judicial questions aside, and taking up the political one, as so often insisted on by the as sailants, he squarely meets the charge on this issue, using much the same argument as we have re peatedly done. He says had the President been removed and Wade inaugurated, an attempt would have been made to supplant Grant at Chicago, and certainly Colfax's name would , not have been on the ticket. The " War-horses" would have been installed in all the offices, and a control obtained over Grant's administration to its detriment, and to the ruin of the party. The ticket which has given such satisfaction to the country could not have been carried at Chicago had the Senate voted the other way, and what has tended so materially to unite the party would in that event not only have been lost, but been a fertile means of division and discard, ending in political defeat. The Pall Mall Gazette yesterday published some nonsense about a deputation of printers who waited on the President with an address. It appears they told Mr. Johnson that in America the highest office is within the reach of the working man, a remark he received in silence. The. Pall Mall says,— "He knew the secrets of life a little better than his visitors, but perhaps the thoughts which must have arisen in his mind are not inaptly expressed by the New York Times. Our contemporary insists that no working man reaches high ,office in America or anywhere else. 'lt was not a tailor that got into the chair of the President in the person of Andrew Johnson. It was the clever lawyer, the active politician, the governor of a Sovereign State, the loud voice in the land, heard above the roar of cannon. It is always so. No tncre mechanic or worker, however good and worthy, need try for the Presidency unless he first win distinction in the court-room, the caucus, or the camp." Commenting on this the Pa writes : No American would think of contradicting the statement of our contem porary, but we understand American affairs here better than they do across the Atlantic, and conse• quently we may hope to see the misrepresenta tions of the New York Times scattered to the winds." Of course a man rises step by step. The printers did not mean that they were to draw lots for the Presidency, but that their position in life was no bar, and that most of the leading men in Wash ington were instances that working. men might aspire to any post, though, the men being many and the pasts few, the great prizes arc rarely gained. Whoever states that no working man reaches high office in America talks nonsense. The complaint is of English ignorance of America, as well as of English indifference, not of the pretension to know ledge, and the sneer is therefore quite out of place. What does the Pall Mall say to this argument—no private soldier can become an officer--but here is the Commander-in-Chief who was a private ? Yes; but he became a corporal, a sergeant, a colour-ser geant, &c., so we maintain that no private can be come au officer. It would have been rich in Mr. Johnson, the successor of Mr. Lincoln, and who himself will be succeeded by General Grant, all once poor unaided boys, who had to carve their own way in the world, to deny that " the working man never reaches high office in America." The Cana liars authorities have taken active mea sures to repel the threatened Fenian invasion. Camps are to be formed at the expose.' points, and a guard has been stationed on the Victoria Bridge tt Montreal. In Toronto the corporation has been instructed to prepare billets to be used, if necessary, for 15,000 men. The Toronto Globe announces the invasion to have 'commenced-, and urges the Government to call out all the troops, both regular tnd volunteer. From Montreal, however, the re port was that the Government of the United Sates had reiz3d the Fenian arms at St. Al bans. Strangers have undoubtedly been collect ing there, and also at Rowse's Point and Malone. 'rile &mate has chasm this as the most appropriate time to pass a resolution for the intercession of the Presidnt with the Sovereign of England for the release of the Fenian priest, Father M'Jlahon• General .11 : 1'llaugall, having settled his difference with the Minister of Militia, has withdrawn the resignation he had iu consequence tendered. In Ogiensburgh it was said that a contract had been taken for 30,000 lbs. of biscuit for the Fenian, and that a large manufactory had undertaken to supply improved breach-loading rifles, revolvers, and artil lery.

William Raymond was nominated on June 11th as assessor for the third congressional district of Massa chusetts. The Philudelphia Public Ledger says :—" In Pitts burg a few nights sines two thieves meta gentleman walking in the street with a box under his arm. They itnmediately undertook to show him to a hotel, and, seizing the box, in spite of his protestation, ran off with it. The gentleman was a naturalist, and the box contained four rattlesnakes." It is curious to real Mr. Sumner's letter acc3pt ing the office of United Stites Senator from Massachu setts, as given in the Alexandria Gazette, May 15, 1851. It forcibly brings back to the mind the extraordinary changes wrought in the Union. "I accept office as the servant of the Union, bound to study and to maintain the interests of every section of the country, and to discountenance every effort on the part of the North to interfere with slavos in the slave States, and all efforts on the part of the South to extend it to free States, or influence the National Government in its behalf."
