The accounts of the 'French funds are •now looked for with some anxiety, as affording an indication of the inten tiens of the Government. They opened at 92,f. 80c., reached 92f. 85c., and left oil at 92f. 75c., according to, the Cours Authentitpie, but private ;I(!counts state the closing price to have been 92f. Sec. This, it will be - seen, is a considerable de cline since Monday ; and the Courier Francais does not hesitate to state that the cause of this decline was the belief that a declaration of war had been issued against Spain. The Neapolitan Rentes continued low, being 79:1f. [THE TIMES.] wi r e can state with satisfaction from the Irish papers, that through the wise and salutary pre cautions adopted by the Viceregal Government, and by the Dublin Magistrates, there was no successful attempt made (though many abortive cities) to violate the letter of the Lord Mayor's proclamation, by dressing up. the College-green statue, either on the 4th or sth inst., both which days passed over in peace, and almost in good humour. The police were at their posts in con . siderable numbers, and the gasconadings of the Orange party ended in smoke. When it is re collected of what long duration was the stupid and malicious practice, within this week, we trust, finally and for ever put down—what a parade was made about the difficulty, and so forth, of suppressing it—how pompous and insolent were the boastings of the Orange incendiaries — and how much rubbish used to fall from the lips of men in office, upon the duty of modera • ration, and patience, and neutrality between opposing factions in those who held the reins of Government I—and now, when we know that by a. touch the spell has been dissolved, that at a single breath of lawful authority - the whole fright ful ,bugbear has absolutely vanished, can there .be presented to the mind a stronger satire upon the pretexts through which all reforms are sys tematically shunned, aml all abuses, even the - most - unprofitable to their patrons and advocates, defended ? [BRITISH PRESS.] - We gnd from Papers received from Ireland, that the peasantry in the southern districts pursue their usual agricultural occupations. The tithe sythtern, however, is become a subject of growing complaint. it is observed that at the late Quar ter Sessions in the e County of Cork, the num b w er of tithe cases as greater than had been for many years. Of one thousand civil bills tried at Middleton, seven hundred were tithe cases ; and of 1,600 at Macroon, 1,300 were of the same description. This latter place is situate in one of the principal scenes of outrage in that county. The resistance to the tithe syetem, to whatever cause attributable, gains strength daily among the lower [mottNING POST.] .The French Papers furnish no confirmation of the rumour which prevailed so generally on 'Thursday evening, of the sudden breaking up of 'the Congress. But the belief that its sittings - will shortly close, or be transferred to the Austrian capital, is evidently gaining ground. The Austrian Observer has copied the para graph which appeared on that subject some time since in the Journal des ,Dbbats, and - which wa's considered to bear an official charac ter. The authenticity of the intelligence which it conveyed is thus placed beyond a doubt, though the " cause of this sudden change" re mains unknown. The Ultra Papers continue to assert that a war with Spain will be' sanctioned by. the Congress, whilst both Ministerialists and Liberals unite in discountenancing the idea. — The assertions of the Ultras, however, have been soloften and lo confidently repeated, that they . 1-egin to gain some credit. [NEw mtcs.] . . A Correspondent has called our attention to she Peruvian Loan, and to the reports which have prevailed within these few days of attach ments having been laid upon that Stock in the 'hands of the Bankers, • and also upon other pro perty of the self-styled Government of Peru.— The attachments, it is said, were issued in the first instance, which have been set aside, on account of their • informality : but it is asserted, that other proceedings will be soon instituted. The claims, it is said, are against the Protector of Peru. How far all these sug gestions are founded in fact, we leave it to those 'who feel a peculiar interest in the question to discover.—We understand that some Gentlemen from the City connected with tile. trade to the - windward ports of Coluinbia,accompanied by some Gentlemen from Liverpool,had yesterday an inter view at the Admiralty with SiT G.Cockburn and Mr. Croker, on the subject of establishing a regular convoy for. vessels bound to and.from those ports. A most satisfactory arrangement is in contem plation on 'the subject, which will very shortly be announced to the trade. The gentlemen who were present have expressed themselves particu larly. satisfied with the great promptitude shown, by. the Admiralty to n►eet their wishes. 11.A.NINTABLE ACCIDENT.—An unfortunate ac cident happened on Thursday morning at Mr. -Mus.kErr's Varnish Manufactory, in Snow's- Fields, Bermondsey, by which a poor woman named Lomax was so dreadfully burnt, that no hops are entertained of her. recovery. She was standing near a fire where some varnish was boiled, when by 'some accident one of the work men overturned the vessel, and a quantity of it fell into ,the fire. The workmen all ran away from the spot instantly,' and escaped injury ; but the' poor woman was so terrified, that she was struck ,motionless,, and the 'flames burnt her froth head to foot. She was carried to St. Tho, ma's's Hospital.. The premises took fire, but `Nvere - soon extinguished. Many engines were immediately .. Vit. - the' spot from the insurance offices, INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, NOT. 8. THE WATERLOO BANK. Thomas Ambrose was opposOd by Mr. HEATH, on behalf of Mr. Davis. The insolvent, on his examination, stated that he . was dis- - charg, , :d under the Insolvent Act about two years and a half ago from debts amounting to about 7,0001. He had been a bankrupt some time before his diseharge, and some time since; the last time was in January the present year. About six months after his former discharge he took from Mr. Davis the house in Wa terloo-place, Pall-mall, in which the Waterloo-bank was after wards carried on ; the insolvent was an anonymous partner in the bank; the firm was NVilleston, Beaumont, and Co. • there was such a person as Willeston in being; he had formerly lived near Pontefract in Yorkshire, at present he lives in Hull ; there was also such a person as Beaumont; he formerly lived at Islington ; his present residence is unknown ; bills were drawn in the name of D. Miaston, but no person of that name had any thing to do with the bank. Mr. HEATH shewed the insolvent a bill drawn in that name, and asked him whether it was his hand-writing ? The insolvent appealed to the Court that he was not bound to answer any question that had no reference to any debt he owed, nor to any thing contained in hiS schedule.—The answer was not insisted_on. The Couwr said, it was quite clear the insolvent's case did. not come within the Act of Parliament. His insolvency was not produced by inevitable misfortune, and he could not be entitled to be again discharged, under the Act within five years of his former discharge, without the consent of three-fourths of his creditors ; his petition must therefore be dismissed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WoRsHIP.STREET.—SINGULAR ROBBERY.— William Richardson was brought before SAMAEL TWY FORD, Esq., the presiding Magistrate, on re-examination, for stealing a so vereign. There was no evidence to prove the charge of his ori ginal commitment, but a new and singular disclosure of another felony was made before the Magistrate.—lt appeared from the evidence of Mary Ann Braddon, a young woman residing with her father and mother at Stoke Newington, that the prisoner, who was a journeyman baker out of place, had his clothes washed by her mother. On, the Ist of October last he took a shirt, a waistcoat, and two silk handkerchiefs. to the old woman to be, washed, and said he would call for them on the following day. lie did not come that day, though the ar ticles were ready for him, and so they remained on the Sunday following, when the witness and her mother went out, leaving the old man at home, where he fell asleep, and continued so about two hours. Ten days afterwards the prisoner came for his clothes, and they could not be found. lie demanded their value, or other artilces in their stead. The poor old people did all they could ; they got him another waistcoat, a pair of stock ings, a shirt, and silk handkerchief, and allowed him the rest in money. A few days ago, on the prisoner being charged with stealing the sovereign by some other person, Atkins the constable took him into custody, and on searching him, amongst other things, he found a duplicate of a waistcoat and shirt, pawned in the Westminster-road on Monday the 7th of October, which waist coat and shirt proved to be the same he gave Mrs. Braddon to wash, and which were ready in the house for him the day be fore, when there can be no doubt the prisoner entered while the old man was asleep, and stole his own property. The prisoner, in his defence, said the old man gave them to him, but the old man denied it positively. Mr. TwyFoRD observed, that this was a-singular case of a man's stealing his own property, and for which he should com mit him to take his trial. It had already been deemed felony for a man to steal his own property in bailment to another, where the intention was manifest ; and in this case his demanding and receiving from these poor persons the value of the goods taken; shewed clearly the felonious intention with which the crime was committed. The prisoner was remanded till Tuesday, for the appearance of the pawnbroker. HAT T 0 N-GARD E curious charge and counter-charge took place yesterday. A person, named Cornelius Cowley, living, in Cromer-street, Ilrunswick-square, charged a girl of the town with making a disturbance at his door. The girl charged him with an assault. Mr. Cowley, it appeared, had on Thursday night, after taking his wife and sister to the play, when he left them picked up the girl ou hid way back, and taken her to his own house, where they regaled themselves with supper, till the faithful husband, begin ning to apprehend the return of his wife, turned his new ac quaintance out of doors. The girl, not liking to be disposed of so cavalierly, made a disturbance, and insisted on having some money before she departed, alleging that she had paid Mr. Cowley's coach-fare. Their altercation excited the attention of the watch, who carried them both to the watch-house, where they were locked up all night.,—The 3lagistrate dismissed both charges. FATAL ACCIDENT AT lIOVE.—We regret to say, that on Tuesday evening, daring the cele bration of the sth of November, an accident of a most melancholy nature occurred at the above place. A number of persons were assembled round a bonfire, about a quarter of a mile from the village, some of them firing off pistols from time to time. One of these, a young man named Bartlett, about eighteen years of age, loaded,and said, as if in jest—" I will shoot that fellow," — pointing to a lad named Groves, who stood at a short distance from him. He fired, and the lad instantly fell ! Two persons who were stand ing near Bartlett at the time he loaded, both join hi declaring that there was no ball or shot put into the pistol. Nearly the whole of the poor fellow's right cheek being torn off, it is supposed that, this was done by the wadding, which opened the jugular vein, and caused his instant death. Bartlett, who is the son of a re spectable gardener at Hove, is in a most agonised state of mind. The. Coroner's Inquest will be holden on the body this day (Thursday.) Groves was the son of a labourer, who also lived in the village.—(Brighton Gazette.) We do not recollect having to record a more audacious and barefaced robbery, than in the abduction, on Wednesday evening, at eight o'clock, of a large heavy cage with two beautiful American grey Squirrels, from a shelf in the passage (the only entrance from Fleet-street), to Richard's Coffee House, near Temple Bar, a gas, light in the passage, and a large open window in the kitchen, where the waiters and other ser vants were going backward and forward directly opposite the cage.

DEFENCE OF BISHOP BURNET AND THE BISHOP _ OF WINCHESTER. ( Continued from THE,StIN of the 2d inst.) Whereas the Socinian, however he may differ from our own persuasion, to follow up the train of his own thoughts, must be moral, and his spe.: culations are breathing the air of mystery, but only professing to stand upon the strength of natural reason, are not adapted to the taste of the vulgar, who have no relish for dry argu gument and controversial disputations, and are therefore never so likely to follow him in crowds, any more than they did the philosophers of old. But besides their influence upon the multitude, the unfavourable impressions which they make by their representation of religion, are enough to throw discredit upon its tendency, and while it beguiles the people, disgusts the philosopher, or,at least such a philosopher as the man of rea son,only would be at this period of enlightened Christianity, and who can just see far enough to be puzzled with common objections, ,but not so far as to see clearly where the fallacy lies ; and this notwithstanding all the help so amply al :forded him by the great lights which have arisen 'in succession upon the Church. The fact is, such a Ihil6Sopher, as he calls himself, is more delighted with detecting errors in the enthusiasts who so wantonly and rashly expose themselves, than with following the faith, though in such ex cellent company, and riots and revels in subtleties of his own invention, and struck out by his ou n powers of logic, than in any the most luminous and striking arguments of others, however inge nious or learned, in favour of the truth. But as the common people have no taste nor talent for logic, nor even for zmy train of reflection at all, they are not likely to enter into the spirit of his reasonings, nor can they, be persuaded, even if they are convinced, by mere abstract specula tion, without the least enthusiasm or appeal to the passions, to set them on the side of truth, unlesS they are stimulated by means which are meant to restrain them by-:the spirit of persecu, tion, which will often of itself be sufficient to give credit to martyrs, .n:hatever may be the . altar upon which their blood is" shed, who May bear no other recommendatiOn than a countenance of sorrow and of:suffering, more especially 'if it can by any artifice beinade to assume the countenance of suffering innocence with patience almost di vine ; a spectacle, 'aS'the ancients said, of delight and admiration even to the Gods themselves. So fully aware have these Reverend Expound ers been of the great advantage of persecution,l and so firmly convinced that the blood of the martyr is the most prolific seed of their church, that they have thrown themselves into the way of injury, and even personal affronts, on purpose to excite the commisseration of the populace, and create' an integest in their favour which is so natural to wards them that suffer if they appear to be" fol lowers of that which is good." If they can but seem to suffer for righteousness sake, happy are they, and because in this age of toleration they cannot provoke the wrath which in less enlighten ed times, when doubt was reckoned impiety, and blasphemy the least - exclamation against the Church, anathematise the Heretic, and so, made the heresy often the more current with the peo ple, who in those ages of intolerance, when the punishment went so far beyond its just limits, in their•horror of the offender's scourge, but lost all sight of the offence ! Now, I say that the spirit of the times, aware of this cruel and unchristian impolicy, no longer controls with the iron rod of punishment, and rather overlooks the wander ings of the feeble mind in tile simplicityof heart; , these Reverend Expounders are obliged to raise 1 1 every little obstruction in their course, or every trifling occurrence which may thwart tem, and which others not so elevated in their own opi nion would pass by uuheeded, into a persecution for the sake of truth, and often place to the same account the insults and injuries which they have brought upon themselves, and boasted they- were bearing the Cross of Christ, while they were merely suffering under the natural conse quences of their own rashness. What an up roar has been made on all these occa sions lately, as if the church itself - were in danger, because some of their venerable ex pounders have happened to be excluded by Mini sters who have objected to contrary doctrines issuing from the same pulpit. As much outcry has been raised up as in the days of fire and faggot,and " shame, shame," has been vociferhted in the midst of the very temple, as if the excluded expounder were a martyr to the good cause, and had as much right to enter at will into the Rector's freehold as the Rector himself ; but such tongues in every age will cry against the rectorship of judgment : and then an assertion of a simple right is made the popular outcry of persecution for conscience sake. The same indecent vociferations have been hurled by this indignant party against a highly distin guished Prelate, one of the most ingenious cham pions of the Church, and therefore a fit object of attack for its greatest enemies, who call him such names as would disgrace even the commonest hypocrite among themselves—a shufiler, a jug gler, and a liar,—a friend to simony, a presump tuous preacher, a Papist,—nay, a very Pope in the Church, an Anti-roman and Antichrist him self. All these soft and delicate expressions, so becoming a Minister of the Gospel, are applied to the Bishop, merely because he has tho,ught proper to comply with the Canons of his Church, which commanded him to examine candidates for orders, and to assist them in the examinations ; and, not to take them by surprise, has very kindly trans , mitted them certain questions upon the articles which they are to answer, which are no digres sion from those articles, much less an innovation upon them, but keep the candidates as closely to the main subject, with as much help to his under standing as he could possibly desire. And I have been told that whenever any doubt or difficulty arises upon any part of the question, the Bishop condescends to listen with all Christian for bearance to the scruples of the Catechumens, and endeavours to place in a clear light any part which ,may seem to their imperfect vision to be thrown too much into the shade.— Great, however, is the cry of Diana of Ephesus ! " The genuine sons of the Church are literally turned out of doors —by the arbitrary rod of usurpation and despotism ; new tests of faith are imposed, incumbents deprived of their assistants, Curates dismissed from their cures—the people robbed of their spiritual treasures, and an iron yoke of bondage placed on the neck of " them that are quiet in the land," and all this for no crime, no cause, but that the Bishops will have it so ; there needs no prophet to predict the re sult, " the mitre and the crown will fall together !" and all this crash and ruin of Church and State— this more than Egyptian bondage upon the meek and quiet in the land—this sacrilege upon the poorer people, and oppression of their Minis ters and the sons of the Church, is all to happen forsooth, because a Bishop steps forth by virtue of his office to do his duty, and exerts himself, with tile vigour and activity for which he is re nowned,to keep up to the spirit as well as the let ter of the canons by which he is sworn. These very men who are so loud in their exclamations from the pulpit and the press against the indo lence of the Clergy, are the first to exclaim against one of their venerable heads—in whom they cannot find this fault at least, and therefore they run riot into the other extreme—and scan dalise him, Ivith more than even their accustomed venom, for his extraordinary exertion, forgetting that they of old were the first to suffer from the lire which they had heated seven times more than it was wanted to be heated. Is this the time, say they, when the ground, by intestine commotion, is ready to heave under our feet, and the moun tains to shake over our heads ; when the whole moral and domestic, religious and political secu rity of the island, threatens to sink in one vol canic and revolutionary deluge ; is this the tune for the chief Ministers of the Peace to become despotic—to assume the office or exercise the authority of the dictator—to irritate the people— to insult and trample upon the Clergy, and set at nought the counsel of ancient times!! ! What rea sons they may have, beside their delight in scandal, for so unmercifully scandalising the times, may he best known to themselves, but we who are not in the secret, are under no such appre hension of a revolutionary deluge, &c. and if we are treading upon sulphureous mines and vol canoes, we are in perfect ignorance of any such snares, and have been sometimes rather inclined to presume, from the good sober sense of the country, and the melancholy experience of its devastations in another, that the spirit of revolu tion will be very long indeed before it can thrive and flourish among us, though we bow with de ference to the superior information of these mob Orators—who, as they have more interest and in= fluence in that iluarter, and are continually aim ing at still greater by their vehemence, some times secret, and at others public enough, against the church, may have been able to tell to a man as accurately as Mr. Hunt himself, how many thousands and tens of thousands they are able to bring into the field against the State. But bpfore these pernicious dictators in Church and State, so arrogantly boast, let them call to mind the fate of Pompey ; when he stampt with his all-powerful foot—did the Legions come ? and don't let them so implicitly depend upon the legions of evil spirits at their command, in a country where the Bible of peace and order has been so generally propagated among the lowest of the people, with proper Notes and Illustra tions to secure even Holy Writ from the errors of texts taken in the letter, which is so profitable to the cause of the conventicle, out so pernicious to the church and the cause of Truth itself. And it is chiefly because the Bishop wishes to give the same security to its articles, that all this mighty stir is made, and serious offence is taken ; and because they can no longer shelter their designs under the cover of literal " sense" which they seem to forget must be " grammatical" as well as literal, and taken also in the plain and full meaning, of which the Bishop must be at least a§ good a judge as any that come before him, they complain bitterly of a want of toleration; they alone are to determine what shall be the sense of the articles, and if the Bishop dare to demand any thing but assent and subscription, they entreat him to beware. If our Prelates subvert the Church, who is to uphold it ? with what face or prospect of success can he exhort his Clergy to contend earnestly for the faith delivered to the Saints, and for the perpetuity of our laws both in Church and State, who has himself introduc ed his Clergy into the Church by a dereliction of that very faith, and by an implied subversion of the very laws he exhorts them to uphold ? Is our Government aware that such treachery is the sure way to ruin both the Church and the Crown ? What Member of Parliament, what Judge, or Magistrate,—yea, what man, may not after such example, swear to defend the Consti tution in its integrity, and after all, put whatever interpretation he pleases upon it, and call that , the Constitution, and then propagate and esta blish a system as opposed to the true one, as darkness is to light. I have given here their sentiment at full length, in their own words— nought extenuating or setting down aught in ' malice'—this, now I read it again, may appear malicious; as I think to any reasonable inquest or jury sitting on the case, there could not be pre sented a more satisfactory evidence of suicido in argument; but we trust to their mercy, they will bring it in lunacy, and not find the fault in the heart, but only in the brain. For what com parison can there be, in the name of common sense and reason, between the Judge and the Parliament man who forswears himself and makes his own private opinion the standard of the laws, 'and not the laws the standard of his opinion, and calls that the Constitution which is only the offspring of his own prepossession, and as opposite to the true British Constitution as light and darkness ; and the Bishop, who acts entirely up to the .spirit of the, letter of the Ec clesiastical Canons, by which he has sworn, in examining the candidates, as he is then ordered in these articles, which are the only test which he applies to them, in the questions which are built upon them, and so far from being as opposed to them as light and darkness, are eminently calculated to throw what might be in the shades of darkness, and by the course of time might ap pear to the tyro in divinity obsolete and obscure, into the clearer and more perfect light ; and be cause he has endeavoured to do this, for the sake bathh of the te andi4ates and the church bich te they will be admitted, this excellent fre ' a sej to distinguished for his loyalty, in 'thin ' to literal sense, as his attachment to the aw d be branded as a subverter of those laws/ c/r°tot downright Radical ; and what is still if4ed, all, an address of his to the University is ga" qt, to encourage the insinuation, that this disintere` cb ed Bishop only holds the doctrines of the ur Ch cie, because they are cc the tenures of civil and ee o r -eiastical preferment," an insinuation that 1 11 051 , find an echo in their own interested al s e ee , hearts, whose pockets may sound with t he P en na and conventicles with the sighs and grottos/ svio, other fit interjections for these knight s of ful oci countenance, who do not mind vreePinghije, sobbing by the " carnal hour glass," in - h ; and when there are not tears or gro ans e-- %l' spontaneous, have been known to hi re th e the day, that the tears and the pence tog ether descend upon them in showers, but wh e , n d such an insinuation against the Bishop "n echo out of the tabernacle ? or rather , when of it not meet with a fiat contradiction in the bred, of all that know him, and would fee l 4 110 1 fence to him to think of standing u p to him from so notorious a falsehood. 4 Meg . 0 7 00 tem, et in Canto viro referre injuria ft fuerit. ,, Instead of so superfluous au atternPlbe will tell you a story which may tend to wa r e to people against such liars and slanderers, Otors believe a man to be inspired because he aPP to be a lunatic or an ideot. thoi tc In the ages of darkness,when Roman Ca'a 0 0 Bishops, bound by an oath of celibacy, ord families to keep them at home in the evening/0. were therefore attracted . by ennui to other c rete„ pations, even to that of hazard,it is recordea.h t ot of the most eminent at that time on the been: 100 i as lie was looking out of a window at 11- e sf: away from the road, in the New Fore st, he ar e r a man walking to and fro alone, using all P r r s o of gestures, and moving his lips as if he : ic hal, actor repeating his part.
