(From the Times.) We believe we may set at rest the speculations vhich have been raised by the vacancy in the see of' York, by announc i ng that Dr. Musgrave, the Bishop f Hereford, i s t o b e the new Archbishop, and that he s to be r e pl ace d i n his present see by Ze On the f ormer o f these appointments we have but 'ittle to r emar k ; b ut that little, we are sorry to say, tT s i eoe whichs a oni v un e alad c i oaenrrsiogsg; large lri sphere hrdey demands overlooknn ofat t e n h n dee t sm i o op n ni s o Dr. Hampden, gins Pr o f essor o f Divinity at Oxford. not very f avoura bl e. Dr. Musgrave may, fur aught ► ve know, b e a Rood man of business, and he may for hearance of th e occupant. The selection, however, t a yh n me d importance a lnu n t l m a o ia b l f ni t e dy t h m i a e n s a n e a n d n q p e u o r a 3 B -; will certainly add one more example to that prescrip ion which seems to establish as a rule of English aatessnanship that the titular Primate of England ought :o be a man as free from extraordinary talents as of Overweening ambition. We will not dispute that it may still bean object to preserve our nobles from another Wolsey, and our Howleys from another Williams. But there is a clerical gift not at all formidable to ,tatesmen, though otherwise exceedingly useful in days when everybody, in or out of office, is thrown on his awn intrinsic resources. Preaching, though apt to he schismatic, is not often rebellious. Dr. Musgrave can write a sensible discourse; but ha has neither the shysical nor the intellectual powers requisite for the most ordinary degree of oratorical effect. The Whit -kids and Wesleys of Yorkshire have no reason to tremble for their reign. The other appointment is a far more serious affair. We cannot imagine on what principle or motive it has been adventured, and 'should certainly have thought that the maxim Quieta non movere applied co the embers of that melancholy quarrel. Dr. Hampden is now a purely historical character. Se veral years since a very great battle was fought over his body, and very great bitterness excited. his appointment to the Regius Professorship could not be disturbed, but the University pronounced, or rather enacted, upon him a very clumsy and irregular sort of censure, which it has not, indeed, removed, but which it has incidentally and partially qualified in a recent professorial statute. The same statute, however, which recognizes Dr. Hampden's authority also swamps him with a crowd of theological rivals; and the young divines of Oxford may now choose their several favourites from some half-dozen pro fessors. Dr. Hampden is not an attractive teacher, and he never would have set the Isis on fire if his own natural flint had not come in collision with the well -tempered steel of a far higher mind. As matters now stand he is very well housed and shelved. He is Regius Professor of Divinity, Canon of Christ Church, Rector of Ewelme, and Principal of St. Mary I Tall. He possesses little influence, and excites few alarms. The University has protested, and with that protest is now perfectly content. We should have thought, therefore, that the present state of affairs is satisfactory to all the parties concerned; and nothing certainly can be more unnecessary than to disturb it. It is now some years since the Church of England presented itself to the State in a jealous and anta gonistic character; and whatever the results of theological warfare, we cannot but think the country has derived great benefit from the truce we at present enjoy. Whatever differences may occasionally arise between Church and State, nothing is more evident than that they should act conjointly, and as one, in the government and social improvement of the country. For some time there has been a considerable degree of co-operation between the two powers. We have recently seen them making mutual concessions i n th e cause of education. Much yet remains to be d one In bodies and souls, habits and habitations, there is still room for improvement. Fifteen thousand educated persons, generally with time and talents to spare, posted at geographical intervals over the whole c nintry, and under one system of management, are a corps of auxiliaries not to be despised. A distin guished savant recently proposed that they should all be compelled to make and contribute atmospheric and other physical observations. A statesman will take much the same view of their moral and statistical opportunities. Their cordiality, as well as their con sent, is required. Everything, therefore, likely to make a breach with ever so inconsiderable a party is the Church ought to be avoided. On the other hand, there is no party whatever, at least none worth taking into account, to whom the new appointment to the see of Hereford can possibly he agreeable. It is not a question be tween - High and Low Church, or between the Church and Dissenters. Dr. Hampden may have been ready to receive consolation from all who were ready to offer it; but if we ask what is the original ground he represents in the field of theology, we shall find very few parties willing to share it unreservedly with him. Dr. Hampden, being neither a graceful writer, nor an original thinker, nor a clear-headed man, procured an appointment which demanded at least one of these qualifications. By canvassing a limited board of electors he became Bampton Lec turer. Haply at the moment he fell in with persons who were both willing to suggest a topic, and able to develop it. Under questionable auspices he com posed a very dull compilation from French and other writers of indifferent repute, and whom it would have contributed as little to his theological as to his literary credit to acknowledge. The fact is, that Dr. Hampden had not th e l east not i on what he was writing about, or what he was driving at, or where it would end. He had just the sense to stop short where he did, and as he afterwards became still more sensible, lie took care for the future to stop still shorter. He has not, however, honesty and openly, recanted a system which turns into a mere mist of words, or rather into nothing at all, not merely this or that doctrine, but everything Christianity pro fesses to teach and reveal. He continues an offender, not only against Anglican orthodoxy, but against Presbyterian, 'Wesleyan, Independent, Baptist, and every other orthodoxy whatever. Lord John may depend upon it that in selecting Dr. Hampden he has committed a political error. He has roused the slumbering antipathy of a considerable, though a beaten and d iscountenanced party. It is not safe for a popular chief to neglect any element of influ ence. For some time he has been reaping the benefit of a growing belief that he is a better friend to the Church than Sir Robert. The clergy, accordingly, are beginning to look with favour on liberal measures. It is something to silence a battery which merely annoys. The clergy, however, can do more than annoy. In their separate capacity they have an im mense negative power. They can refuse to do almost anything, and if they are sulky will be very likely to make a virtue of idleness. Bishops and Parliaments can make a clergyman reside on his living as easily as you can bring a horse to the pond, but they can no more make a clergyman do an atom of good than you can make a horse drink. Now, such an appointment as that we announce is just the very thing to drive half the clergy to disgust and despair. Forth with, instead of heading and tailing old sermons, they will set to work writing new ones, discussing ' Church and State, and intim a ti ng very plainly that a certain person, who should not, guides the counsels of Downing-street. They will represent themselves as persecuted, insulted, and betrayed. They will publish sermons and circulate tracts. The booksellers will get a harvest, for which the families of some five hundred reckless and needy pamphleteers will pay with reduced allowances of bread and butter, and a protracted wear of last year's new clothes. Mean while, time and temper will be lost ; patience, purses, and parishe s w ill be ruined. All thi s may ' be silly. but a statesman is bound to prevent it if he can. A wise shepherd has no respect for the intellect of his sheep, but he nevertheless takes most carefully into account all that they are likely to do. (From the Poet.) It has been publicly announced that Dr. Musgrave, now Bishop of Hereford, will he elevated to the Arch diocesefar of York, and that Dr. Hampden, Regiuswhoto Professor of Divinity in Oxford University, will be no minations will disappoint, and the second disgust, the new Bishop of Hereford. The first of these t ,a h r o h s i e gs f . rien T d i s ie o re f s t e h e e m C e h d u t r o ch be all to expect reasonably good appointments from th as the Church was concerned, in the removal Robert Peel from power; but Lord John Russell Sir as if he were desirous of proving that the connexion acts of the Church with the State is even a greater evil, under his Administration, than under thatofthe • vi Right Hon. Member for Tamworth. The Right Rev. Personage said to be chosen for the Archdiocese of York is by no means eminent as a divine. He has abilities of a certain kind, which it is understood were found useful to the Whigs in the cti: n?ering affairs of the West 'aiding of Yorkshire. Hence his promotion to the Episcopal Bench. But Hereford not being enough, he now gets York! Does Lord J. Russell expect that such promotion will serve the cause of religion, or make the Church more effi cient for its great work ? And yet the appointment to York is almost com mendable in comparion with that to Hereford. Dr. Musgrave is not eminent for sound divinity, but Dr. Ilampth n is notorious for unsound divinity. True, he is Professor of Divinit7 in Oxford Uni versity, but it was not from the University he re ceive that appointment. He is the Itcgiui Professor, and our readers will remember that, so far as it was possible, the University, in convoc a ti on assem bl e d, declared it s wan t of confidence in him as a teacher of divinity. Lord John Russell, who has great confidence in himself, probably thinks that he is a better judge than the University of Oxford is of the merits of Dr. Hampden as a divine. In the appointment of Bishops, however, it seems to us that the Prime Minister should defer to the general opinion of the Church rather than to his own. If Lord J. Russell does not know, he ought to have known, that this ap pointment of Dr. Hampden will give great offence to the Church, and may produce a disturbance the quieting of which will require far greater abilities than any which his Lordship can command. His Lordship, let us tell him, has quite enough of diffi culties to deal with at present, without dragging upon himself those which may probably arise from his forcing or trying to force Dr. Hampden upon the Bench of Bishops. But second-class Whigs have always sbown far greater aptitude for getting them selves and the nation into trouble, than ability and energy for getting out of it. (From the Chronicle.) The manner in which the vacancy in the see of York has been filled up does equal credit to the judg ment and the honesty of the Prime Minister. Dr. Musgrave, the Bishop of Hereford, is translated to the archbishopric, and the bishopric of Hereford is to be conferred upon Dr. Hampden. Both appoint ments are manifestly made upon public grounds only, and in both cases we think it will be felt, by all but the members of one discontented party in the Church, that Lord John Russell has exercised a most sound discretion. The amiable prelate who has been pitched upon for for the archbishopric is known to be an tithe and strenuous upholder of the Protestant character of the Church of England, and to possess, in an eminent degree, those administrative talents which are not less needful to the spiritual ruler than to him who is at the head of secular affairs. The vast district comprised within the see of York is one of those in which, from the rapid development of the na tional industry, society has most conspicuously out grown the means of religious influence and instruc tion. For the duties involved in the management of such a diocese Dr. Musgrave is peculiarly fitted, by a clear and firm judgment, a moderate tone of feeling and opinion, conciliating manners, and ten years of episcopal experience. It is equally honour able to the prelate and the Minister, that the recom mendations of the former are purely of this personal kind. Dr. Musgrave has no aristocratic connexions to push him into notice. His elevation is precisely one of those facts which redeem the general system of ecclesiastical promotion in England, by showing that quiet and modest merit is not always shut out from the highest dignities. A choice so free from objection would scarcely have provoked a word of remonstrance from any quarter, but that Dr. Musgrave ha s e v i nce d a very determi n ed hostility to all the ingenious varie ties of doctrine and morality produced by the Trac tarian movement. This, however, is quite enough to provoke sneers at his preaching and depreciation of his learning and talents. Upon the same grounds, it is in the natural course of things that the name of his successor should awaken old animosities. Neither the professional acquire ments and abilities, nor the retiring and inoffensive character of Dr. Hampden, can protect him from the ill-natured criticisms of a party who strove to crush him by an accusation of heresy, at the very time when they were themselves secretly undermining the foundations of the English Church. The Times, which in one of its unaccountable gyrations has again chosen to become the organ of this old discontent, un wisely reminds us of the great head and manager of the Hampden persecution. In what respect, let us ask, can any lover of good faith compare the new Bishop of Hereford with the 1 6 far higher mind" to whose fierce and factious opposition he is no doubt in debted for some part of his fame ? The lectures of the Regius Professor of Divinity may not be wholly free from the traces of timidity or self-distrust, uncommon as those qualities are in theologi cal writings, but they are at least untainted with the moral poison of Tract 90. His logic may not have been so finely tempered as that of his former opponent, but it was wielded with rather more honesty of purpose. Dr. Hampden's Protestantism was certainly not well adapted to the atmosphere of Oxford, but the bulk of English churchmen, we apprehend, will think that views of religious truth tending to unite together all the adherents of the Reformation, are more in confor mity with the spirit of their established standards. than a system professing to harmonize with them every doctrine which they were framed to exclude. We have no desire to speak harshly of a man un questionably of the highest ability, who, whatever may have been the errors of his former conduct, did at length acknowledge his position in the Church of England to be false and unjustifiable, by openly joining another communion. But the party which Mr. Newman created, animated, and left behind him, in the English Church, might now at least be ex pected to feel too much humiliation at what has occurred to revive in the public mind the recollection of their former arrogance. There is neither discre tion nor good taste in refreshing our memories with the fact, that men whose hearts were in Rome, and whose real, if not avowed, standards were the de , trees of Trent, raised the cry of heresy in an Eng' lish University against the teachings of a Protestan professor.

WRECK OF THE NEW YORK PACKET-SHIP STEPHEN WHITNEY. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) LIVERPOOL, MONDAY EVENlNG. — Further infor mation respecting the fate of the New York packet ship Stephen Whitney has been received here this morning. The Cork Reporter, of Saturday, says that several letters had been received from Skibbereen, confirming the report. " The statements" says the Cork Reporter, " as to the loss of lif e in this unhappy disaster differ slightly. One letter mentions the loss at ninety individuals, twenty of that number being ladies; and also adds, that portions of the cargo had been washed ashore. " A second letter states the number lost at ninety five, and that the passengers on board the wrecked ship were all of the better class'—steerage passen gers probably. " The third, a more detailed and correct account, agrees with our information, as will be perceived from the extract annexed : " Skibbereen, Nor. 12. " lam sorry to inform you that, on the night before last, a dreadful shipwreck occurred outside Baltimore Harbour, on the rocks called ' The Calves.' Ninety-one lives were lost, and nineteen saved. Yesterday the bodies of a lady and child were thrown on shore. The lady had three gold rings on her fingers, and was very richly dressed. The vessel was an American packet from New York; her name I don't know yet. I am informed Mr. Cleburne's son, of this town, was in the ship, and is one of the parties lost. It is reported, since I began this letter, that there were three vessels lost on the same fatal night.' " Later ac — counts state that the vessel was com pletely dashed to pieces, and that the cargo, which was very valuable, was being carried off by the coun try people, who flocked in thousands to the scene of the - wreck. The driver of the Skibbereen mail-coach had reported in Cork that ninety-three lives were lost, amongst whom were Captain Popham and his wife. " The vessel became a total wreck in fifteen minutes after she struck. The coast the scene of the disaster is of a fearfully rugged character, and Cape Clear lies within a few ►piles only of the spot." In addition to the foregoing, we find the following in a late edition of this day's Liverpool Albion:— " We have been favoured with the perusal of a _ letter received this morning from a magistrate of the county of Cork, by his son, resident in Liverpool, contnining the explanation of the disaster to the Ste phen Whitney, and other details. " It appears that Captain Popham, the commander of t±e ill-fated ship, having run close on the land, tnlst,,ok the lighthouse of Croolchaven for that of the °la Head of Kinsale, and under this erroneous im pr,miion bore away and went ashore. In ten minutes she• went to pieces. All the female passengers are said to be drowned ; the first, second, and third mates sherd the same fate ; and, in a short space, ninety one, of the hundred and ten individuals on board were nu , nbered with the dead. Immediately upon intelli gei ice reaching the inspector and collector of customs the! proceeded to the scene of the wreck, and ren dere, I all the assistance in their power; and from the oth,E; accounts published it will have been seen that nint,,teen lives were saved. " ,Large quantities of the carg ) and pieces of the wrt e k had been cast on shore. " _Nine years back a similar fate attended another ship. upon the same spot, the Lady Flora Hastings, we believe; and on that occasion every soul on board poi's bed." ie Rev.

SUICIDE FROM THE lIARSII CONDUCT OF A TAX COLLECTOR.—An inquest was held yesterday by Mr. Bedford, at the Ring's Arms, Bowling-street, West minster, on the body of John Wright, aged eighty, a carpenter. The deceased has resided for upwards of forty years at No. 22, Great Smith-street, but of late he had fallen into arrears with his assessed taxes. About three o'clock on Saturday afternoon last, Cox, the col lector's broker, went to the house with a warrant to distrain for eighteen months' taxes, amounting to 91. The deceased's sister opened the front door, when Cox passed her and made an attempt to open the front par lour, which was occupied by lodgers, upon which she begged of him not to alarm the lodger, and if he would speak to the deceased, who was then coming up stairs, everything could be amicably settled. Cox replied he knew his business, and, to use the witness's words, bounced up stairs into the first floor, and began taking an inventory. The deceased followed him, and asked Cox to wait three hours, rind he should bo able to settle the demand, which was refused. The deceased, who was greatly excited, left the room, saying, "It would be the death of one of them," and in an hour afterwards he was discovered in his workshop suspended by a sash line attached to a beam. He was cut down, and Mr. Randolph, a surgeon, pronounced life to be quite ex tinct. The coroner said it was a most lamentable case, and the jury returned a verdict of " Temporary insanity, caused by the harsh measures adopted by the assessed tax-collector." THE EXECUTION OF THE AMERICAN DZSERTEES. —We take the following report of this horrible massacre from the American Star:—" On the morning of the 9th were hung at Sau Angel sixteen deserters from the Ame rican army, who had taken up arms against their Go vernment. Immediately after, some ten or twelve were whipped and branded on the cheek with theletter D., Riley, the chief of the St. Patricia crowd, came in for a share of the whipping and branding, and right well was the former laid on by a Mexican muleteer, General Twiggy deeming it too much honour to the Major to be flogged by an American soldier. lie did not stand the operation with that stoicism we expected. The next morning four others of the same company were executed at Mixcoac, and on the 13th thirty more were hung upon one gallows at the same place. The thirty were brought out for execution about the same time that Chepultepee was being stormed, and Colonel Harney, pointing to that place, told them that they should live long enough to see the American flag hoisted upon the battlements of that f ,, rtress, and no longer. In a few moments oar colours were raised, and after they were shown to them they e ere launched into eternity! The clergy at San Angel pleaded hard to save the lives of these men, but it was in vain. General Twiggy told them that to Ampudia, Arista, and Santa Anna did these men owe their deaths, for they stooped to the low business of soliciting deser tion from our ranks, and had succeeded in seducing from duty and allegiance the poor wretches who had to pay so dearly for their crimes." THE FISHERIES.—A letter has been received in this town, by the owners of the William Ward, from Capt. Gravill from which it appears that this barque reached Lerwick on the 4th instant, atter a stormy passage across the Western Ocean. 'the crew are reported as being all well, and the William Ward has again had a very suc cessful voyage, having caught ten large fish, producing upwards of 130 i m p er i a l tuns of oil, and about seven tons of bone. The William Ward left Hull for Green land on the 26th of February, and returned with about ninety tuns on the 16th of May. In the course of the voyage, however, it was found necessary to throw over board from 30 to 40 tuns, owing to stress of weather. She left this port on a second voyage on the 20th of June, and proceeded to Davis' Straits, where she has been nearly all the season without falling in with any other fishing Advertiser. THE CONVICTS AT WOOLWICH.— Mr. Voules chief superir.tendent of the Convict Estqblishmente, attended yesterday on board the Warrior hulk, at Woolwich, to inquire into the conduct of three of the convicts who refused to obey orders when requested to change their class on the previous Wednesday. Mr. Voules, on exa mination of their cases, ordered them to be kept in con finement until further orders. The chief superintendent then examined into the case of one of the guards, named Williams, who was suspended by Mr. Masterrean, for striking Quartermaster White, in the presence of the convicts, and Mr. Voules at onco dismissed Williams from his employment. The power of corporal punish ment has been withdrawn from the resident superintend ents of convicts, and therefore the statement that they have been more severely dr , alt with since Mr. Duncombe's inquiry, has no foundation whatever.
