A T a numerous and highly-respectable MEETING of the 11 SOUTH LANCASHIRE and CHESHIRE PRO TESTANT ASSOCIATIONS, held in the heatre-Royal, Fountain-street, Manchester, on Tut, DAY, the 26th September, 1839, J. EVANS, Esq., the Boroughree ,in the Chair, The following Resolutions were proposed and carried by ac clamation : Moved by Dr. O'SULLIVAN, seconded by C. S. PARKER, Esq., and Resolved unanimously, That the public measures of the last few sessions of Par liament too plainly betray the increase of Popish influence practically exerted upon the members of her Majesty's Go vernment, and loudly call for such an unequivocal demon stration of Protestant feeling in the people of this country as will convince the administration, or any administration who may be called to the management of the interests of this vast Empire, that Great Britain is still determined to retain her Scriptural Institutions, in Church and State. Moved by the Rev. H. STOW ELL, seconded by Dr. Coosz, and In the Calcutta Christian Observer for 1838, there is a va luable paper upon the progress of the opium traffic, which is the production of one who wrote from actual observation. The trade, which, till a recent period, had been confined to the store-ships stationary at Lintin, was then, the writer as serts, actively prosecuted, by means of eighteen square rigged vessels, along the whole coast of China, from the is-' land of Chusan, OR the.llorBl-.4q, to 'the island of Hainan, on the south-west. The stationary ships at Lintin had also been' increased in number. Besides these, there were thirty two European schooners daily engaged in carrying the article through the very mouth of the Bogue, up to Whampoa and Canton. Twelve months be_tf►a no one supposed that it could have been introduced, at least so soon, within the Bogue ; but the experiments made upon that point had turned out'so suc cessful, that even the foreign passage boats, which had been en gaged in plying between Macao and Canton, had all abandoned their legitimrte employment, and were then exclusively oc cupied in smuggling opium on the river. Several of the mer chant-ships, proceeding to Whampoa for their regular car goes, had lately taken with them from Lintin opium to a large amount, and disposed of it at an enormous profit. Nay (a fact hitherto unprecedented in the trade), a number of Euro peans had themselves lately become personal smugglers in the contraband commodity, and had actually succeeded in deliv ering several chests, by means of small boats, seven or eight miles up the country, and above the city of Canton.—Bom bay Times, May 29. Resolved unanimously, • • That this Meeting determine to petition, and to promote petitions to both Houses of Parliament, imploring our legis lature to withhold all further grants of public money from the College of Maynooth, and also from any other measure of Education compromising the great Protestant principles of the'Constitution, or either directly or indirectly recognising Popery. Moved by the Rev. 11. AVNEILE, seconded by J.

PORTRAITS AND MEMOIRS OF THE ARCHBISHOPS, BISHOPS, AND OTHER DISTIN GUISHED DIGNITARIES AND CLERGYMEN OF THE UNITED CHURCH OF ENGLAND AND IRELAND, AND OF THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN SCOTL D, AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMER A. EDITED BY THE Rev. STEPHEN IS CSON, yr is intended that this great National W shall comprise a series of Portraits, accompanied with rief Memoirs, of the Archbishops, Bishops, and other living Dignitaries and Clergymen of the United Church of England and Ireland, both here and in our Colonies, the Episcopal Church of Scotland, and that interesting branch of the Protestant Episcopal Church now:flourishing in the United States of America ; and the distinguished patronage with which this undertaking has been already honoured, inspires the Pro prietors with confidence that it will be highly acceptable to the nation at large, as well as to the members of our venera ble and Apostolic Church. The value of this Work will be obvious to all who desire to see the sacred ties of Christian affection drawn more closely between the respective orders and ranks of the Clergy and their Congregations. To the Clergy who may wish to possess Portraits of the Bishops who ordained them, and are over them in the Lord," and likewise of their College and Clerical • friends ;.-*snd—nti.livin,,.._ whom they_ have read and esteem, the present Worn il int full of interest and plcasure. To Parochial Congregations also it will afford high gratifica tion to be able individually to possess themselves of a faithful Portrait of the Pastor from whom they receive the advantages of religious instruction and spiritual consolation, and whom they have been led to " esteem highly for his work's sake." The numerous Lay friends and relatives of the Clergy will also have an opportunity of obtaining accurate Portraitures of those who are endeared to them by the ties of nature. In all these, and many other respects, this Work cannot fail of becoming of great utility and interest to the vast body of the Nobility, Clergy, and Gentry of the British Empire. The Portraits will be selected without the least regard to political or other differences of opinion. Eminence in Ecclesiastical rank, intellectual abilities, learning, virtue, or religious zeal, being the great objects proposed to be recorded. The Memoirs will be confined to a review of the academical course and public life of the Clergyman whose likeness is given, together with a list of any religious or literary works which he may have published. Facts will be stated, while all critical and controversial observations likely to offend will be excluded. It has been suggested by very high authority, that it would add much to the interest and value of the work, if each Clergyman would furnish a short exposition of a passage of Scripture. The Proprietors cheerfully accede to this suggestion, and respectfully solicit the favour of such communications. And as only about four pages on an average can be appropriated to each Memoir and Scriptural ilhistration, brevity will be highly desirable. The Portraits will be engraved in the first style of the Art, and neither trouble nor expense spared to render this great Work worthy of the noble cause to which it is dedicated, and one of the most splendid that has ever appeared. A Part, containing three Portraits, with their respective Memoir, will be published on the first day of every alternate month, in a thick, handsome wrapper, for the protection of the Plates. The size of each engraving will be nine inches by seven. s. d. Price of each Part, India Proofs Ditto ditto, - Imperial Quarto Proofs 12 0 For the convenience of Subscribers and others, each Plate may be had separately.

They will be carefully preserved, and returned free of expense ; but where no Portrait exists, the Proprietors will have one painted expressly for the Work at their own-expense.

THE \VYRE HARBOUR.—The ship City of Rochester, up wards of 600 tons burthen, which arrived at the harbour of Wyre about a fortnight ago, has taken her departure for New Orleans, during the present week, laden with coals and slates by Mr. Benbow, of Fleetwood. We understand that this is the first instance of a vessel taking a cargo to foreign parts from the harbour of Wyre.—Preston Chronicle. On Friday, as the clergyman was reading the burial ser vice over the remains of the late Mr. E. Jenkins in Thorpe churchyard, the friends and family of the deceased standing round the grave, the sides of the pit suddenly gave way, and the whole of the party, together with the coffin, were thrown into the grave with a terrible crash. We are happy to say no person was seriously hurt.—Lincoln Chronicle. THE VICAR OUTWITTED. — The Rev. Henry Venn, pass ing through Towcester, asked the innkeeper wh o was vicar, and as he should stay the next day (Sunday), whether he would be glad of assistance ? " Oh ! yes, (says the land lord) I dare say he will be glad to have his duty done," " Then carry my compliments to him, and say a clergyman out of Yorkshire is passing, and is ready to read or preach for him, if he needs assistance." Away went the landlord to the vicar. " Gladly, (said his reverence) but what sort of man is this Yorkshire clergyman—there are Methodist vagrants, you know—ah !" The innkeeper laughed, shook his head, and said, " Ali! sir, only look at his face and nose, and you will see he is not one of that sort." " Well (said the vicar) let him come to me in the morning, and then I shall see whether I like him to preach or pray." The next morning, Mr. Venn waited upon his reverend brother. " Sir, you are from Yorkshire—will you drink a dram this morning ?" " I have no objection." The bottle came from the closet, and Mr. Venn's character was now decided. " Sir, you will preach for me this morning ?" " With pleasure." Robed and ready they parted to the church — Mr. Venn to the pulpit. There, his Bible no sooner opened than the congregation stared, and the vicar hid his face in his surplice. The energetic truth awakened up an attention to which that congregation had been little accustomed. The vicar did not wait to thank him, he bolted out of the thurch the moment the service was ended, and left Mr. Venn to re tire to his inn alone. This anecdote was related by Dr. Haweis to the editor of The Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, 2 vols. GREAT ROAD FROM BOMBAY TO AGRA. — The great in tended road from Bombay to Agra, is, we are happy to learn, taken up in good earnest, by the governments of the two presidencies ; and, to prevent all delays and procrastinations, periodical reports of progress have, we are told, been ordered by the authorities of both. The "Whole line between the presidencies will, it is expected, not exceed 750 miles ; that between Indore and Agra being 380. On this there are al ready staging Bungalows from Bombay to Dhoolia a distance 1 of 212 miles. Between Agra and Indore none exist ; but there are great facilities for constructing them. Goonah offers an admirable locality for a half-way station, possessing great advantages of climate and salubrity, and other available points are to be found on the same line. The road from Bombay to Agra is now completed as far as Sindwah. The mountain pass bearing that name has been very much improved and rendered easily passable by wheel carriages. All, in fact, that is now necessary, is to put the road, yid Bhewndy, Tull Ghat, Nas suck, Dhoolia, and Sindwah, upon a durable basis, by con structing arched cross drains in the swampy parts, and by softening the slopes over the hill ghats, so that cattle may drag up their loads without the necessity, which at present exists, of procuring additional force. We have heard that Major Drummond has discovered an excellent line, almost perfectly straight, and about 97 miles in length, from Sind wah to Indore. This, when completed, will reduce the total distance, from Bombay to Indore, to about 372 miles. The line, if authorised, will cross the Nerbudda, at a village called Akberpore, where there is both a ferry and a ford, the latter one of the best on that river for many miles.—Bombay Times, June 19. TRIAL OF MR. GRANT'S FUEL ON BOARD HER MA JESTY'S SHIP " FIREBRAND."—The lords of the admiralt having directed an experiment to be made with M r. Grant's fuel, on a large scale, we have taken pains to ascertain what are the results, and we lay the following interesting and im portant facts before our readers :—The consumption of Mr. Grant's fuel averaged one-forth less than that of the best coal in similar circumstances. It occupied, on board the Firebrand, one-sixth less space than Welsh coal, and one third less space than north country coal. In the opinions of the engineers and stokers, the steam was raison more quickly and with greater facility with Mr. Grant's fuel than with any description of coal. The heavy labour of stirring up the fire is almost entirely saved to the poor stokers. Indeed, this process is now in a great measure rendered unnecessary, since there are no clinkers formed by Mr. Grant's fuel; an important advantage also in other respects, since it ren ders the combustion much more complete, owing to the furnace bars remaining clear and open to the passage of air. Finally this fuel is vastly more cleanly, and throws up little or no dust in the engine-room, an advantage of no small moment to the health of the stokers and engineers. Since writing the above, we have received a letter from a gentleman who took a passage in the Firebrand from hence to Plymouth, and who reports that Mr. Grant's fuel was burned the whole way with great advantage. The lords of the admiralty who. were on board, the engineers, and last, but not least, the humble hard-working stokers, gave their unqualified opinion in favour of this important improvement, which all agree in considering as superior to the best kind of coal.—Hampshire Telegraph. THE BAPTISTS.—David Taylor, one of Lord Huntingdon's servants, was sent out by the Countess to preach in the neigh bourhood of Donnington Park, the family seat. On one oc casion his sermon made an impression on a Mr. Salmi Dea con, who from that thne became a serious person , and even tually the pastor of a little church at Barbon Fabis, in Lei cestershire, which arose out of his labours, and those of a colleague, over which he presided fifty-two years. This church, like the leaven in the meal, spread to - Hugglescote, Melbourne, Loughborough, Derby, Leicester, (where an old decayed chuch was resuscitated,) Nottingham, &c. These churches, at least such of them as then existed, with others inYorkshire, Cambridgeshire, &c. were formed into a connexion, in 1770, and its beginning was small, but its latter end has greatly increased. It now contains oNE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN CHURCHES, 11,358 members, five District Home Missionary Societies, a Foreign Missionary Society, established in 1816, two Acodemies, &c. The principal strength of the New Connexion of General Bap tists is in Midland Counties, and Barton-Fabis is consi dered the "mother of them all ! ' In 1802, the Mid land Conference included twenty-bne churches. In 1816, the Warwickshire churches, six in number, formed them selves into a separate Conference, as also in 1825, when four or five churches in the north of Nottinghamshire were formed into 'what is . called the North Midland Conference. The Midland Conference, in 1832, included forty-two Churches. These fifty-two churches in the Mid land counties probably contain 7009 members ; many of the chapels are large and well attended ; the Sunday-schools attached have many thousand children in them. As the little one has become a thousand, may the small one at home and abroad grow into a strong nation.—Countess of Hunting don's Life and Times, 2 Vols. COL. PASLEY'S OPERATIONS AGAINST THE " ROYAL GEORGE" AT SPITHE AD.—The proceedings of thiimost per severing of military engineers during the last week have ad vanced with great spirit, in spite of the tempestuous and rainy weather. Several small charges, of 451bs. of powder each, and one of 2001bs. have been exploded against the wreck with such effect that some huge masses of the ship's side, many beams, and two or three knees .(some of wood and some of iron), have been wrenched from the main mass, and hauled up. Of these, the largest was breughtto the dock yard this afternoon; it consisted of a portion of the bottom, with the bottom sheathing on it entire; its average length was twenty-five feet. There could be distinctly counted fifteen streaks of planking, besides seven or eight tim• hers. We observed, also, a tolerably solid iron knee, which appeared to have been placed horizontally under the deck. Three large shot were glued together by the oxide of iron. A mass of coal was found near this spot, and a considerable portion of a gun carriage, besides many fragments of planks and timbers. The nautical part of Colonel Pasley 's operations is still conducted . by Sadler, of the dock yard, and the engineering by Mr. Seymond's, R.E. We are very glad to hear, that all the difficulties at first ex perienced respecting the application of the galvanic spark have been entirely overcome, and that this admirable device is now in full action daily. The divers first ascertain the position and shape of a certain part of the wreck, and then carefully place a charge of gunpowder alongside of it. The men then come to the surface, and the explosion is, made by the galvanic battery. The divers again descend, to sling the fragments 'in chains to which ropes are hooked, and the dis located fragments are thus drawn peacemeal to the surface slowly, but surely. Colonel Pasley intends on Monday, at slack tide, should the weather be favourable, to explode the large charge of gunpowder, 2,4001b5. ; the intention will be notified by a red flag being hoisted .on board the Success and the lighters. The hour will be Omit two o'clock. — Hampshire Telegraph. Enstirantr potirts. Ike / IMPERIAL FIRE OFFICE.

ENGLISH CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS. — In charity, and supporting the poor and orphans, they are exceedingly libe ral ; so much so, that they give ten per cent. per annum of their income to institutions of charity. On account of the dear prices of living, there may be, of the 27,000,000 of population, 7,000,000 poor ; but not a single person begs in the streets, nor in any part of the kingdom : in fact, if there should be any one begging, he would be taken up immedi ately and punished for it, as it is against the law ; because, in every quarter, there is a house built on purpose for cha rity, where the poor are accommodated. * * Perhaps, out of this 27,000,000 of population, Mere is not a single soul who does not know how to read and write, not even the dumb, deaf, or blind. They do not give credit for fine hand-writ ing ; they say, writing is good enough if it can be read, and they do not spend, the time simply in learning a beautiful hand. They have everal thousand colleges and schools, for instructing in every class of learning, on which they have spent millions of money. All this for education and wisdom. Verily, such a magnificent kingdom, and high nation is not, in these times, in any other part of the world, nor has such an one been, even in ancient times, mentioned in the his tories. * * Their carts and carriages strike the observer very much. * * They have also instructed their large dogs, even to draw carriages quickly. They are fond of dogs, and take pains to teach them to become useful ; they make them so serviceable, that sometimes they are sent on business. For instance, f a man wants something from a shop that is known to this dog, he will write a note to the shopkeeper, asking for what he may want, then he puts the note into a basket, and hangs it upon the dog's neck, and gives him a sign. The dog will carry the message immediately, and return to the satisfaction of his master. Many other curi ous things are done by their dogs, not important to be men tioned. They do notkeep any useless animals ; all that they keep must be of use.
