To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which aro sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We hare no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther wo consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching te a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits, practised by youth muck more fre quently than is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temporarily, at least the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often concealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real cause of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled te check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character, is at once concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if not relinquished. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence,' Ne.. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and Five till Eight i■ the Evening; and Country Patients are re quested to be as minute as possible in the detail of their cases, —as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the communication most be accompanied by the " usual Consulta tion Fee of I!.," without whch no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable secrecy may be relied on.

WILKINSON particularly recommends his Paint to the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, wbe wish to paint their houses of Roman cement, Aucco, or brick walls, as a preven tive to damp or sea spra y in exposed situations; it will not blister or peel off as common paint. On tiling, to represent slating, iron hurdles, roofs, conservatories, hot-houses, fences, farm, or any out-buildings, it will last four times as long as common paint. It is so simple in its use, that any labourer can lay it on. To ship-owners for their decks, bottoms of ves sels, dc., it will be shown, as well as to the public, to be supe rior to any paint in use, by testimonials of its lasting fourteen years on wood and houses, twenty years on iron (see the South wark•bridge).

" Few men connected with the complicated departments of surgery are deserving of more grateful mention than Mr. Van Bu'cliell, whose unwearied dedication to the cure of those most painful of all diseases, which this book treats of, has resulted in a continued course of success in cases of the most hopeless and forbidding nature. * * * We find nearly every page re cGrding some astonishing cure in patients whose sufferings had been of many years' duration, and most excruciating in their nature. The warmth of expression with which the gra titude of some of the restored is couched must be truly gratify. ing to the feelings, and highly creditable to the skill and judg ment, of Mr. Van Butchell."—Weekly True Sun. THE HAItVEST. [LATEST ACCOUNTS.I The farmers of this neighbourhood have now nearly ted the it wheat harvest, and the yield has proved an abundant one. The weather has been very propitious, 'nor have the late sh owers cause d any da mage, excepting to those who carried in too great Laste : these, in sevcral eases, have been obliged to turn their ricks. Could the landlords by any means prevent the increase of population, the produce of our own coui.try might be barely sufficient to supply bread to the multitude. If there were an ample sufficiency, there would be no need for Corn-laws ; and if there be not a sufficiency, then ought not the Corn-laws to pre. vent our making good the deficiency, by purchasing of our continental neighbours.—Aslcsbur N News. We have to rep- rt another favourable week for the operations of the husbandman ; though we have had a few showers, the work of harvest has made great pro gress, and the greater part of the corn in this county is well stored, and in good condition.—Nollingha»tßeview. The corn crop, in the district around Holmfirth, are likely to be ripened earlier than they have been for several years. On the better land, reaping has com menced, and a good portion is ready for going on with. Oats are u heavy crop; but, in some situations, are much broken down by the late storm. Wheat is not an abundant crop. Potatoes are, in most places, look itn.- very well ; and the failure of plant is less than it has been in previous years. On the mountain lands, the oats are yet green, and will require several weeks of fine weather to prepare them for reaping.—Halifax Express. On Saturday last, we understand that there were samples of both new wheat and oats in our market, from the neighbourhood of Cowan Head. The farmer who brought th,:m states that they are finer than the average of last harvest. The grain generally in this neighbourhood, we are happy to hear, is likely to be a much thicker and stronger crop than was anticipated. The harvest has commenced, and if the weather be favourable, will soon become general—Kendal Mercury. The harvest in our neighbourhood has during the week been proceeded in, but not with any great vigour or activity, as the crops are only slowly approaching maturity, and as there have been occasional interrup tions by falls of rain. The hiring of shearers com menced at the gate on Monday last, on which day the wages were 20d. ; on Tuesday and Wednesday, 25.; on Thursday, in consequence of the heavy rain of the preceding night, there was no hiring ; this morning the wages promised was likewise 25., but the occurrence of rain early suspended the work.—lienvick Advertiser. Harvest has fairly begun in this district, but the weather during the week has not been very propitious, and but little progress has been made. The supply of reapers at the Cross daring the week has considerably exceeded the demand, and wages have been consequently :ow. The general rate has been Is, Bd., and in some instances 25., or for broken time 2id. per hour. Yes terday, Mr. Charles Carmichael, Craighead, had six bolls oats milled here, the first, we believe, of the pro duce of this district. It was cut on the 26th ult. The seed used was from Poland, where it is much esteemed on account of its ripening early.—Paisley Advertiarr. Since our last the weather has, upon the whole, been favourable to harvest operations. Partial showers have Wien at intervals, but these have presented but slight obstacles to the important labours of the field, which will be pursued in the ensuing week with much vigour in all directions, should a continuance of the weather we have for some weeks experienced be vouch.

Some of Sir Robert's followers have retained their enmity to him ever since the remote period of 1819 ; and currency subjects are not those on which enmity is the least bitter or the least durable in this country. A far larger portion date their detestation no further back than 1829 ; but the subject of difference which made that year memorable is of a nature tr ensure uninter• rupted discord and life-long aversion between the par ties, even though Peel should live to be a Parr and his followers be all . Jeiikinses. On one point only can this statesman hope that his adherents will be faithful ; he may calculate unerring ly on the fidelity of their hate. On one thing only can he steadily rely—that they will never place reliance upon him more. The bond that unites them to him is as strong as distrust and resent men: can make it. The only solid advantage he has, in this condition. is, that they who call him their chief do not even condescend to conceal their implacable dislike ; they deem his character to be so bad, and find their own memories so good, that they scorn dissimulation, and revel in the full enjoyment of " insurrection." It has been his destiny since 1829 to fall upon a sys tem which is rather one of aggravation than atonemen•. Whether as a reformer of the Church or as a tolerator of the Poor-laws—as the grudging abolisher of Orange corporations, or the unskilful and baffled negotiator for Cabinet honours when they were really within reach_.. we find him equzlly ill-fated and unfortunate ; his peni tence unavailing, and his punishment unremitting. The Tories who cheer him during his speech abuse him at the end of it. His admirers and supporters, at the close of every Session, are found dividing their energies between endeavours to show that the Liberals have bc traycd the country, and that the Tory lender has abet. ted them in their wickedness. Every year adds heavily to his catalogue of offences. It is his peculiar fate to be cried up as the destined deliverer of the country by the very men who are always denouncing him as its de stroyer. His acts, when seen by them in advance, wear the brightest aspect imaginable ; but when they turn to look upon them, passed by, the dark, shabby, sordid side is alone presented to their view ; they see them as " Fine tapestry things, very grand on one side, But showing on yother what rags they are made of." —Exa»ziner. DELAY OF THE LONDON MAIL.-.....The mail, to the great annoyance of our trading community, did not arrive here on Friday till half-past 12 instead of A. The cause, we understand, was a collision of two trains, near Derby, travelling contrary ways, the consequence of which was the ejection of one train off the line, and, of course, much injury both to carriages and engines. One poor man had his leg broken, which is the only personal injury of which we have heard.—Hull Rockingham. and p in thaperse LEEDS.—Since the establishm en t o f a ni g ht ,etters here mail from London to Leeds, per r a ilway ' of the preceding evening have been teuiivered morning, with great regularity. Our readers 'win remember that, at the Essex Summer Assizes, a lad, named George Crane, a servant in the employ of the Rev. Mr. Abdy, a Magistrate for the ocunty of Essex, was convicted of perjury under rather pe culiar circumstances. It appears that an information had been laid against three persons under the Game Act, for trespassing upon the land of ono of Mr. Abdy's tenants, and Crane was the principal witness in support of the in formation, and upon his evidence the defendants were con victed and tined. They subsequently indicted the boy for perjury, and the parties who had been fined swore that they never were in the field desc ibed by Crane in his evi dence, although it was admitted that they were in the neighbourhood. Lord Abinger, who tried the case, told the Jury that, even supposing the boy was mistaken, it did Mat appear that any thing else could be imputed to him ; and ho appeared evidently to think that the charge of per jury had not been made out. The Jury, however, returned a verdict of Guilty, and his Lordship sentenced the pri soner to three months' imprisonment. The Rev. Mr. Abdy, and other gentlemen of the neighbourhood, how ever, being aware of the good character of the boy, and entertaining a strong opinion that he bad been improperly convicted, lost no time in representing the whole of the and the circumstances of th e ca'za to the Marq u i s o f N ormanby, result 11 i; been that his Lordship, after taking the whole of the facts into his consideration, thought fit to re commend that Crane should he pardoned, and an order for his discharge was immediately sent down to Chelmsford Gaol, * and uitLia the last few days he has been set at liberty. W. P. Gesell was removed from our county gaol on Wednesday last to the Stirling Castle, lying at Portsmouth, preparatory to his voyage to the penal colonies.—lllonmouthshire Merlin. DREADFUL ACCIDENT.---Yesterday afternoon a dreadful accident happened to Thomas Becrofet, groom, in the service of' Colonel Wells, of No. 22, Charles-street, Berkeley-square. He was riding a spirited horse through Berkeley-street, when the animal took fright and threw its rider, who fell heavily on his bead against the kerb stone, he was taken up in an insensible state, and conveyed to the house of Nlr. Powell, a surgeon, in John-street, and subsequently removed to St. George's Hospital. But slight hopes are entertained of his recovery. EXPLOSION OF GAS IN THE ClTY.—Yes terday afterno3n, shortly after two o'clock, an explosion of gas took place on the premises of Messrs. Nicholls and Pellat, wine -merchants, King William-street, City, in consequence of its escape from the pipes in the cellar. The plate-glass front was blown out and smashed. In a short space of time the parish engine was on the spot, but its assistance was not required. Two men in the employ of the firm were severely scorched, The damage done is very eensiderable., • ,eror j the Confisa ion of Au gs b urg: , A.D. I 580.) Great , d ysputatio as bane ben of the power of by shoppe s, i n whiche r navy men haue confusely meng-!ed togyener th e power of the churche, and the power of the swerde [sword]. Of this confnsion great battaylles, geate unquictnes 1 rou e proceded, whyles byshoppes bearynge them selfes borde upon the power of the keys, not allonely haue inst ytute and begonae new honours of god, and not onely hitue burdoned consciences, with re servation of cases [casuistry], and with violent excommu nications and cursynge s, but also haue translated and remoued the kyng , domes of the woride, and gone aboute to take awaye ti leinpire [the empire] from them perours ; well disposed. and learned men haue reproued these vises [vices] in tb c churche longe sythen. fore our preachers to a.hentent [the intent] to conforte consciences : were con: arayned to shewe the difference of the ecclesiastical p ower, and of the power of the swerde, and haue taugt.t that cyther of them because of goddes commaundement is to be had in greate reuerence and honour, as hygla beuelytes of god upon earth°. And thus oure lerned. men thynke, this is theyr opi nion, that the power of the keys, or the power of the byshoppes accordyngo to the gospel!, is a power or a commaundement of god to preache the gospel!, to re myttc, and retayne, lose, and bynde synnes, and to mynystre Sacramentes. For with that commaundement Chryste sendeth forth his apostles, sayenge as my fa ther bath sent me, even so I tencle you. Take the holy y t ghosts , whose synne s y e rem i tte they be re whose spines ye holde styli they be holden mt edand styli. Also in the gospel! of Macke he saythe : Go preache the gospell to every creature, &c. This power is put in execution onely by teachynge or preachynge the gospel!, and by mynystrying the Sacra ments eyther to a multitude, or elles to one man by him Rife accordyng to his vocation and eallynge, for here be graunted not corporall thynges, but eternal! thinges, as eternal! ryghtuousness, the holy ghoste eternal! lyfe. These thynges can not chaunce or come but by ministration of the wordy and of the sacramentes. As Paula savhe : The that gos beu gospel! is e therefore thep power of the power Godtwoer of hech salu.atti&tui o rc a ie ll graunteth eternal thynges and is exercised onely by ministration of the word, it lettith [hindereth] not ciuile [civil] administracion. lyke as th e crafte of synging no thing lettith ciuile or political administration, for politi cal administration goth [toeth] aboute other thinges then [than] cloth the gospel!. For the gouernour or ruler defendeth not myndes, but bodies and bodely thynges agaynste manyfeste injuries, and restreyneth men with the swerde and corporall paynes to thentent [the intent] to kepe cyuyle [civil] justice and peace. Therefore the power of the churche and the ciuile power may not be myxed and confounded together. The power of the churche hathe his commaundemente to teache the gospel! and to mynistre the sacramentes. Let it not breke into anothers offyce, let it not trans late and altere the kyngdomes of the world as the byshoppes of Rome haue done, let it not abrogate and delete lawes of prynces, let it not take awaye due and lawful! obedience of the subiecte to his prynce, let it not interrupt° iudgementes of any cyuile ordi naunces or contractes, let it not prescribe ne appoynt lawes to gouernours of the fourme and facion of the comen welthe, as Chryste saythe : My kyngdome is not of this woride. Also in another place he sayth : Guts me constituit judicem aut divisorem super vos. That is to saye, who made me judge or deuider ouer you. And Paulo saith to the Philippians : Our policye or conuersation is in heuen [heaven]. And to the Co rinthes : The armure or wepons of our cheualry [chi valry] he not carnal!, but mighty through god to destroy cogitacions, and thoughts, &c. After this sorte do our men dyuyde [divide] the offices, and dueties of both these powers, and teache to honour them bothe, and to acknowlege that eche of them is a gyft and benefyte sof god. If byshops haue any power of the swerde, that power haue they not us byshoppes by the commaundedient of the gospel!, but by mannes !awe gyuen [given] to them of kynges, and emperours, to the cyuile ministration of theyr owne goodes. So that this is another offyce than is the mynistration of the gospel!. Therfore when soever question is made of the juris diction of byshops, the empyre, and temporal! power ought to be deuided [divided], and distincted from the ecclesiasticall iurisdiction. Undoubtedly after the gospel!, and after goddes lawe no jurisdiction belongeth to by shoppes (that is to say) to them to whome is committed the mynystration of the worde and of the sacramentes, sane onely this power to remitte and lose [loose] sinnes, and also to discerne and judge doctrines, and to rejecte a doctrine contrary to the gospel!, and to exclude and shyt [shut] oute from the communion of the churche, wycked men, whose wyckedness is knowen, and this must be with the worde, without mannes violence. In these things the congregations, or churches owe of dutie, and be by the lawe of god bounden to submitto s t aie hemi ngof olsvviewheo [hereol aredienee; anee.soisel i ynl e t ozoo t r h aast heareth you), heareth me. But when they teache or ordeyne any thynge agaynst the gospell, then the congregations haue a commaunde ment of god prohibitynge ohedyence. As this : Be ware of false prophetes, and Paulo to the Galathians : If an aungell from heuen worde preache or slime any other gospel!, accursed be he. Also to the Corinthes We can nothynge do agaynst the truth; but [here is missed for] the truthe. Also in another place he sayeth Power is gyuen to us for edification and not for destruc tion. So also do the canon lawes commaunde 2. D. 7. cop. Sacerdotes et cap. Oves. And S. Austine agaynst the epistle of Pctilian sayeth : If catholique byshoppes be deceyued [deceived] any where by chaunce, and thynke any thing agaynst the canooieall scryptures of gad, we ought not to consent to them. If, byshops haue any other power or iurisdieion as in cognisaunce of plee [plea] or in determinyng of certayne causes, as of matrimony or of tythes : they haue it by mannes lawe, wherein when the ordinaries fayle to do theyr dueties, because eyther they wyl not, or can not, prynces be compelled (yea whether they will or not) to see the law ministered to theyr suhiectes for peace to be bad atnongest them. Moreouer it is disputed whether byshops, or pastours haue ryght and auctorite to ordeyne ceremonies in the churche and to make !awes of meates, of holy dayes, and degrees of ministers or orders, &e. They that ymagin [imagine] this auctorite to be in byshops, alledge and bryng for them this testimonie and auctoritie of aeryp ture. Yet I bane many thynges to saye to yoa, but ye can not yet beare them, but when that spyrytc or tye shall come,heshall teache you all truthe. also the example of a t e apo s t e k whicb - tion that the people shulde abstto suffocate, They alledg e tt into Sundaye contrary • mantes called al• there an" very .Ley alledge made a prohibi ,ne from bloude and ..e Sabbat dayc chaunged the bake of the x commaunde .,e Decalogie as it semeth. Neyther is example more craked upon and hosted .acked upon and boasted] then is the chaunging of the Sabbat day. Greate, say they, is the power and auctorytie of the churche, sythe [since] it dispensed with one of the x commaundementes. But as touchyng this question our men teache after this sorte, that byshops have no power to decre and ordeyne any thyng agaynst the gospel!, as it is showed before. The canone laves teach the same thyng. 9. Distinc. But it is agaynst scrypture to make traditions, or to exacte or require them to be obserued, for thentent [the intent] that by that obseruation we may get pardo n of synnes, and may satisfyc and make amendes for synnes. For thus the glory of the rneryte of Christe is butte zn - 1 minished, whan we go aboute to de styli more serue remission of synnes and iustyfycatyon with such obseruaticns. Nowe it is openly knowen that tra dicions haue growen almoste to an infinite n om . bre in the churche by the meancs of that persuasion and the doctryne of laythe and ryghtuousness of fay the Yslon of synnes in the mean whyle bath been oppressed. F or holy dayes and more were made, and fastyngdayes were tlevhhiechafn"lninenourYn ' commaunded, new ceremonies, new h onouryng es o f sayntes were institute. For the deuisers and auctors of a su n c d h in thj ifi ng aa c t s in t n ho l u v g it l h ite th t e o se g passed, o f i...wtaterkeres.m So grewe uppe the penitential canones in tymes an d steppes in which yet we see certayne tokencs [feign] that [penances]. a p satisfactiono stels a d in t A h l e so ne m w an t y est w a r m y a te n r t s t t i b ie e r r a e rn b a e s , ge of god, lyke as that whiche we reade in Leviticus, the byshoppes. And these wrytcrs scale h to be deceyved orderying whereof God commytied to the with thexample of Moyses laws, as t oughe the ryghtu ousoes of the newe testament were an outward obser uation of certayne rytes and ceremonies, 1 3 k e as the iustice o f t h e o ld l awe wa s an ootwarde obseruation I of certayne rytes. Wherefore lyke as in the olde lawe it was synne to cate s wynes flesh, &e., so in the newe testament they putte syn in meates, in dayes, in vesture, and seso bi a bi e thin ges . And they thynke th at t h e ryghtuousness of the newe testament can not be without these thinges. Of this occasion came those burdens, that certayne meates do defyle and it is deadly pollute th e consc i ence, a nd that synne to omytte and leaue unsayde canonical) houres [services so called], that fastyngcs deserue remyssyon of synnes, and that they be necessaryc to the ryghtuousness of the newe testament, that synne in a case reserued can not be forgyuen [forgiven] without thauctoryte [the autho rity] of the reseruer, where as in very dede the canones them seines speake onely of the reservation of the ca nonycall payne [punishment] and not of the reservation of synne. From whens [whence] I pray you, and of whome halm the byshops their power and aucthoritie to Jaye these traditions upon the aurae to von or greuu [grieve] theyr consciences. For euery man may se [see] op e n auctoryties and dere testimonies whiche prohibite the makynge of suche traditions eyther to deserue remys son of synnes, or as necessarye to the ryghtuousnes of the newe testament or to saluation, For Paule to the CollosSMZeg sayth : Lette no man iudge you in meate, drynke, parte of the holy daye, &e. Also : Yff ye be deade with Chryste from the elementes of the world, why as lyving in the world do ye kepe da. crees, touch not, taste not, &c. which be commaundementes and doctrynes of men, and have a pretence and a colour of wysedome. Also to Ty te he prohibiteth traditions apertlye [openly], warn} nge that they be not attendynge to the Judaicall tales and to con maundementes of men, whiche turne from the truthe. And Chryste speakynge of them that require tradytyons sayeth in this wyse : Let them alone, they are blynde eery des of the blynde, and be reproueth such honours [reverential observances] sayenge : All plantes, whiche, the father of heucn dyd not plante, shalbe [shall be] plucked up by the rootes. If byshops haue auctoritie to onerate and lade churches with infynite traditions and to snare the consciences, why doth scrypture so often prohibete to make arid to 'lease traditions ? Why dothe it call them doctrynes of deuls [devils] ? Dyd the holy ghost warne those thynges before in vayne ? Where fore it must nedes consequently ensue, that syth or denaunces instituted as thynges necessary, or with an opinion to deserue remission of synne, be contrary to the gospel!: that it is not lawful! for any by shop to institute or require such honours [obser vances]. For it is necessary that the doctryne of Chrysten [Christian] libertie be kepte styli in the churches, which is that the bondage of the law is not ne. cessary to iustification, as it is wryten in the epistle to the Galathians : Be not subiecte agayne to the yoke of bondage. The chyef place of the gospel] muste nedes be kepte styli, whiche is, that we optayne remission of synnes, and justification freely by fayth in Chryste, and not for certayne obseruations or honours deuysed by men. What shal we thynke than of the Sonday and lyke rytes of the temples ? To this our horned men saye, that it is lawful! to byshops or to pastors to make ordynauaces, that thinges be ordrelye done in the Churche not that we shulde purchase by them remyssion of sines, or that we can satisfie for sinnes, or that consciences be bound to judge them necessary honours, or to thynke that they sinne, sshan without offence of other they breake them. So Paule doth ordeyne that in the congregation that women shulde couer theyr heeddes, and that interpreters and teachers be herde after an ordre in the Churche. It is convenient that the Churches shuldo kepe suche ordinaunces for charitie and tranquilite so farre forth that one offendeth not another that all thynges be done in the churches in ordre, and without busynes and trouble, but yet so that the conscience be not charged, as to thynke that they be necessary to saluation, or to judge that they synne when thay breake them without hurtynge of others. As no man wyll saye that a woman doth synne which gothe forthe abrode bare heded of fendynge no body thersvith. Euen suche is the obseruation and kepyng of the Son day, of Easter, of Pcnthccoste, and lyke holydayes and rytes. For they that jug° that by the auctorite of the churche the obseruynge of the Sondaye in stede of the Sabbat day was ordeyned as a thyng necessary do greatly erre. The scr ypt urc permitteth and graunteth that the kepynge of the Sabbat daye is now free, for it teaeheth that the ceremonies of Moyses lawe after the reuelation and shewyuge abrode of the gospel are not necessarye. And yet because it was nedefull to ordeyne a certayne daye, that the people myght know whan they ought to ccme together it appereth that the Church dyd apoynt the Sonday, whiche daye (as it semeth) pleased them rather than the Sabbat daye, cum' for this cause, that men myght haue an example of Chrysten libertie, and myght knowe that the kepynge and the observation neyther of the saturday nor of any other day is necessary. Prodygyous, monstrous, and wonderful disputations are set forth of the chaungynge of the !awe, of the cere monies of the new lawe, of the chaungyng of the Sabbat dave which all haue spronge forth ofd false persuation and beleue of men, which thought that there must e nedes be in the churche an honouryng of God, lyke to the leuiticall, and that Chryst commytted, to the apos tles and to byshops auctorytie to inuent and to fynde hough' out cerem on i es , w hi c he b e necessary to saluation. These e rrours crepte i n to the churche whe n tle e r yg h tuousnes of faythe was not clearely ei taught.

The apostles commanded to absteyne from bloudde : who dothe nowt? observe and kepe it? And yet they that do not kepc it, sine [sin] not, for undoubtedly tot the apostles them selves wolde burden the conscience with such bondage, but they prohibited it for a tyme, for avoydynge of sclaunder. For the perpetual wyll and mynde of the gospel is to be consydered in a de cree. Scase [scarce] any canoones are kepte dyligentlye. and many daylye go out of us e an d memorye, yea with them which defend e traditions most dyligently. Nee . ther can the consciences be holpen no provyded, for, oneless this epikee or equitie [conventional kepte, th a t i s t o w it te, t h at we k nowe that rule] be decrees are to be kepte without opinie canones and n of necessitie, and that consciences are not hurts forgotten and utterly set asyde tyons, ‘.'aeough traditions be Certes byshops might es: ase l y obe dience, f they wolde not inforce men to kepe trady tyons, styli lawful! whiche can not be kepte with good conscience. The y eiminu ",ade prestos [priests] to liue [live] unmary ed' th receyve none, oneles th e y sweare in effecte that • they wyl not teach the pure doctryne of the gos pell. The congregations require not that the byshops shulde repare and make concord agayne with loose and decay of theyr honour, and yet it shulde be come good pastours so to do, but they onely requyre, that they wolde release, and pardone [forego] un juste burdones whiche arc newe, and receyved contrary to the custome of the catholyke churche. We will not denie but in the begynaynge some constitutions were grounded upon reasonable and probable causes. Which yet are not now agreable ne conuenyent for the tymes ensuing. It ap pereth also that some were by errour receyved. Wher fore it myght apperteyne to the gentlenes of byshoppes, uowe to mitigate and release them, sythe suche mutation breaketh not the unite of the churche. For many mannes traditions in processe of tyme have been chaunged, as the canones them sclues do shewe. That yf it can not be opteyncd, that those obseruations sh u ld e b e re l ease d, w hi c h can not be done without syn ne : we must ne d es f o ll owe the rule of the apostles, which commaunde rather to obeye god then men. Peter forbyddeth byshops to be Lordes, and emperours ouer the churche. Nowe it is not entended by us to take awaye iurisdiction from the byshoppes, but this one thyng is required of them, that they wolde suffre the gospell to be purely taught, and that they wolde release a fewe certayne obseruations, whiche can not be observed without synne. That yf they wyl not remytte ne release any thing, let them loke to theyr charge how they shall make accomptes to God in that they were occasion of this scisme and diuision, by reason of theyr obstinacie and styffenes. THE CONCLUSION OF THE BOKE. These be the chiefest articles, whiche seme to be in controuersie, and debate. For all though of moo [more] abuses it myght hauc ben spoken : yet because we wolde not be tedious ne lunge, we medled but with the moste pryncypall of whiche the rest may easely be judged. Great complayntes there were of pardons, of pyigrymages, of the abuse of excommunication, parochies [parishes] were many wayes vexed by [on the subject of] station aries [by disputes about residence. Every one installed to the privileges and profits of residents, is residenti arius ; and while he actually keeps such stated residence he is stagiarius or stationarius]. Infinyte contentions and strytes there were betwy xt curates [the secular clergy], and relygious men [the regular or monks], for the ryght of the paryshe, for confessions, for burialles, for extraordinarie preachynges, and for other thynges innumerable. We have let these gere [gear or kind] passe, to thentent that the moste principal) poyntes of this matter shortely set forth, myghte be more easily knowen. Neyther is here any thynge sayde or gathered to the reproche, sclaunder, or hurte of any man. Allonely those thynges hauc been rehersed which seemed neccssarye to be spoken, to thende [the end] it myght be perceyued that nothyng is receyued in doctrine and ceremonies with us agaynst scripture, or the catholyke churche. For it is manifest and knowen that we moste diligently take hede least any news or wycked opinions shuldecreape into oure churches. These articles before wryten, we thought best to be exhibited and putte forth, accordynge to the commaundement of themperours maiastie, in which myght apper e our con fession and the smartie and eff ec t e o f tbeyr doctrine myght be sene, whiche be teachers and preachers amonge us. Nowe yf in any thing, this confession sh e , seme to be not porfecte and suffycient, we be rely (god wyllyng) according to the scryptures, to render iind gyue a larger information.

Necesse est enim in Ecclesiis retineri doctrinam, de libertate Christiana, quod non sit necessaria servitus legis ad justificationem, sicut in Ga latis scriptum est, Nolite iterum jugo servitutis subjici. Necesse est retineri prtecipuurn Evangelii locum, quod remissionem peccatorum et justificationem per fidem in Christum gratis consequemur, non propter certas obser vationes, aut propter cultus ab hominibus institutos.

Ad lime respondent, quod liceat Episcopis sou pastoribus facers ordinationes, ut res ordine gerantur in Ecclesia, non ut per Dias morea mur remissionem peccatorum, nut satisfaciamus pro peccatis, aut obligentur conscientias, ut judicent esse neccsssarios cultus, ac sentient sc peccare cum sine offeusione aliorum violent. Sic Paulus ordinat, ut in congregation° mulieres velent capita, ut ordine audian tur in Ecclesia interpreter, &c. Tales ordinations; convenit Ecclesias propter carita tem et tranquillitaten: scrvare eatenus, ne alius alium offendat, ut ordine et sine tumultu crania fiant in Ea dulls. Verum ita, ne conscientias onerentur, ut ducant re 2 esse necessaries ad salutem,' ac judicent se peccare cum violent eas sine aliorum offensione, sicut neuno dixerit peccare muliercm, qum in public= non velato capite proeedit, sine offensione hominum.

THE BISHOP OF E',CETER'S COR REsPo7MENcE. ornise to notice the corre s p on We repent of our pr deuce between the r ..sishop o f E xeter an d the Commis sion of Ecelest , :stical Inqui r y. Th e truth i s that we are getting tired of Dr. Phil potts. T hat he has afforded us much ~ iversion we do not deny, but a pantomime in five arts is not to be borne. There is a fatiguing mono tor,,y in extravagance sustained at its highest pitch. The Bishop begins, as usual, with imputation. He charges the Bishop of London with the bad faith of having, in debate, "adduced some portion of papers" marked private and confidential ; and he puts himsclf on his defence against the accusation of the Archbishop of Canterbury, whom he endeavours to convict of having made a statement exceeding the truth, and with the best means of knowing that it exceeded the truth. It is not for us to give any opinion on the squabbles of these holy men. It only appears to us that they deal marvellously freely in insinuations of bad faith and untruth. In 1834 Bishop Philpotts was invited by the Pri mate and Sir Robert Peel to give Lis opinion on the affairs of the Church and the requisite reforms. The letters of Sir Robert arc curious. In the first he says— " Whitehall, Dec. 22, 1894. "My dear Bishop of Exeter—l felt assured that I did not go beyond the limits to which you were pre pared to advance, on the question of Church Reform (I include in those terms the various pending subjects for discussion), in the address which I thought it ad visable to issue. I solemnly declare my main object is to promote the true interests of the Church of Eng land. I will most willingly return to private life, and make the very, very small sacrifice of office, rather than consent to anything which I conscientiously believe to be prejudicial to the great and sacred objects for which the Church was established ; but my earnest ad vice is, that the Church should avail itself of this, pos sibly the last, opportunity of aiding its true friends in the cause of judicious reform, by enabling us Co go all the lengths we can go with perfect safety, and to make, if possible, a satisfactorily and final settlement." In a second letter he asks the home question— " After providing for the maintenance of the fabric, and the proper performance of all cathedral services, in what mode can the superfluous wealth of cathedrals be made available for the spiritual instruction of the people, with the greatest effect and the least violation of prin ciple ? It is in vain to disguise from ourselves, that, either by friendly or unfriendly hands, ecclesiastical sine cures must share the fate to which all other sinecures have been doomed. I think it is impossible to maintain the principle, that an officer of the Church, without cor responding duties, shall have large emoluments attached to it, while the cure of souls in some populous districts is wholly unprovided for. No one can contend that the latter evil ought to continue unredressed. Where is the hope of redress except from ecclesiastical revenues ?" We recommend this opinion of the leader of the Tory party to the attention of Sir Robert Inglis. It is cu riously at variance with the propositions for Church ex tension by grants out of the public purse. Bishop Philpotts, in his reply to the above queries, evinces a boundless attachment to the cathedral patron e, about which he writes in the strain of eulogium in which we are accustomed to sec the complicated virtues of cosmetics celebrated. First, the cathedral establish ments are declared to be the reservoirs of learning, though Bishop Philpotts does not explain how it is that a clergyman applies himself to learning because he holds cathedral patronage. Next, they Afford a link between the higher orders and the Church, attracting the studious ayn,d and d iou th sl u y s disposed largeiy sons of nobility and higher gentr promoting the influence of religion in the higher orders. They form an inoffensive and most useful aristocracy in the clerical ody itself, b liberalpisriontgessitio,n oand, elevating a cl lly . Theergy its on genera man is thus exalted opulence ; and men of ' peascpeecsioamllye merchants and monied men, are induced to , l of the best members of th e i r family in that profession, be cause it ranks amo ng the tnost - liberal professions ; thus contributing to the available opulence of the Church all the private fortunes of those who are attracted i n t o i t. In my own dioceee , t h h a e ve pc;un d ia oruyb t means of th e c l ergy, as a body, are, I , at least twofold the amount of ecclesi astical income ; and t hi s i s mainly caused by the gen- tlemanly character of the profession inducing parents in easy circu mstances to lay out the fortunes of sons in tho purchase of livings, often very small. Now the existence of dignities, I conceive, largely contrutes to this high worldly estimation of the profession o f a ib cler it would be a most unhappy mistak e gym even in an ;and fiscl culation, t o l ower materially the rank of the clergy, al caas would I think b e t h e case by the large reduction of c.ig nities. There is a striking analogy to the case of the army ; lower its character as a liberal profession, and what would you lose! The purchase of advowsons is often like the purchase of commissions : it is not calcu lated as a profitable investment. The existence of these bodies is of incalculable use in giving a tone to the prin. cif:ties and sentiments of the society of the cities in which they are placed." What a fine band for a puff has this Bishop. With this command of that particular stile, how he would shine in setting forth the merits of Warren's Blacking, or the Milk of Roses. He excels the perfumer, who vouched for his cosmetic—" It albifies the teeth, mollifies the skin, dulcifies the voice, suavifies the breath, and gives an agreeable rubicundity to the countenance." The reference to the Army is rather unfortunate. The Army maintains its character as a liberal pro fession, and it maintains it s c h aracter w i thout any rich prizes. No lottery of incomes of ten and twenty thousands is necessary to induce gentlemen to enter the Army, and though there are no Generals or Marshals as richly paid as the poorest Bishop, yet the so ldi er enters the service for the honour of the service, and maintains the respect of his cloth, not by wealth, but by conduct. Remarkable, indeed, it is that the only profession which places its sole de pendance for the world's respect on wealth is the pro fession Which preaches that riches are the root of all evil. The Church has done its best to strengthen Mammon worship, by averring that its own altars could not stand without the ample aid of Mammon. This is as if the priesthood of Mahomet protested that man could not live without the copious use of wine. But after all it is to be observed that the poorest part of the clergy is the most respected part, and that notwith.. standing the sordid trading language of Bishops, the humbler working clergy show that the moral qualities can command the world's respect, even when they are associated with indigence. But this the Bisops would deny. Their argument is, that the poor Curate is respected in his parish, not because of his blameless life, his moral example, his spiritual aid, but because there is in authority over him en exceedingly wealthy Bishop. Bishop Philpotts would have us believe that the Bishops are the suns in the ecclesiastical system., which shed their light and lus tre on the inferior bodies. According to Bishop Phil. petts, the poor pastor is honoured in his parish, not for the good be does and the example be presents, but ho cause he, the Bishop of Exeter, has fifteen thousand a year. As water carried through pipes rises to the level of the reservoir, so the Bishop would argue that the reservoir of r.npeet in the rich bishoprics causes the re spect of the clergy to mount to the same level through all the clerical channels in the diocese, and that the clergyman is the mere pipe supplied with respect from the great episcopal vat.—Examiner. THE MARVELLOUS INVENTION OF THE TIMES. That science has secrets in store which will ren der the modern implements of war useless, and produce astounding changes in the world, is highly probable, and that this engine may be one of these is within the limits of possibility. But sundry circumstances will teach a shrewd observer to distrust the wondrous powers of the invention, and to question the policy of Government paying a vast sum for the privilege of keep:ng it a se cret, "in mercy to mankind, until some crisis shall oc cur to compel England, for her own safety, to resort to it:use." First, he will remark that it is not brought for ward by the journalist in order to display its merits, but to calumniate the Ministry, and any quackish delusion, while it is under a veil, will answer this purpose just as well as the most brilliant discovery. Secondly, he will remember how many inventions, heralded with the same pomp, ay, and certified by " naval officers" and men of science too, have ended in smoke—witness Perkins' Steam Cannon, the famous submarine ex; plosion-boat, about thirty years sign, whose technical name we have forgotten, Brown's Gas or Atmospheric Engine, . and a multitude of. others. Thirdly, he will ask himself what possible motive Lord Melbourne .i F ould have for refusing to pay a price for the secret, if it really was worth the sum asked. The money was not to come from his own pocket ; the eclat of slviag the British navy from annihilation was worth something to any Government ; and as the inventor will o'io irse sell " the ab so l u t e sovere i gnty of the seas " to same foreign state, his Lordship's negligence or treachery is sure to be exposed, to his own utter ruin as a public man We say nothing of tl-. 0 difficulty, of restraining the inventor, after sellinr, his secret to the British Government, from selliv g it again to the French, or the Russian ; or of the probability of the " experienced naval officer," whP, saw only the results, and not the process employe d - (for the secret has not been divulged), being deceiv ed, both as to the power o f th e mac hi ne , and its cr „ pabilitv of being worked. Had the factious object 'not peeped out, the invention might have received 5(110 '..: credit, but as matters stand, every rational man believe that the wondrous engine has been turned to party purposes, solely because it was fit !or no other. We could t a k e ' a wager , th a t th e discovery will turn out to be the same ca r t o f s tuff with th e universal motion machines, the balloons for transporting regiments, and the hundred other mechanical delusions, which 'every 'ear brings forth.—Scotsman. SPORTIIVG INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERD AY . The most important feature in the betting was the retrogres sion of Crucifix, against whom 1,000 to 50, 15 to 1 to the same sum, two or three twenties to one to small accounts, and, finally, 25 to I were laid ; this may be considered as amount tin; to the coup de grace, vet there are still some who think that she is likely to go ! Launcelot was not so good a favorite as when we last quoted the odds from Warwick ; 6 to 4 was " laid and, taken," but the layers predominated, although cl,fse. Gibraltar was in force at 7 to 2, taken eagerly, and in one or two quarters a point less. Maroon rose to 17 to 1, with backers ; 25 to 1 each taken about Dr. Caius and Calypso (the latter at one momunt at 20 to 1), and 30 to I each about Theon and Trustee ; and these are all that can be named as actually in the betting.

Her Majesty's ship Rodney, 92, Captain Maunsell, C. 8., has had her complement of men completed by a draft of 150 seamen from the San Josef, Captain Tay ler, C. 8., at this port. It is generally allowed that such a fine sample of British seamen has rarely been seen in one ship. Her Nlajcsty's ship Vengeance, 84, is ordered to have her lower masts taken in, and then la be rigged with jury per. She will proceed to Portsmouth to be fitted for commission. Her Majesty's ship Bombay, 84, was towed faem her moorings on Alonday, by the Carron, alongside the Sheer-hulk, to have her masts put on board, previous to being commissioned. Her Majesty's shit) St. George, 120, was warped alongside the jetty on Monday, to be docked and cop pered. Her Majesty's troop-ship Apollo, 46, sailed on Saul"' day for the Cove of Cork.
