TEE POPE VERSUS CHU, C , AND QJJEEisT. A strong illustration of the effect which has been pro- Zuced by . the Pope's arrogant assumption of power in this country is afforded in the following letter, which has been addressed to the RoMan Catholic priest of Chester, by George Wilbraham, Esq., of Delamere House, formerly for South Cheshire:— " Hou a se, "Reverend Sir,--I have lately Delamere re ceived letter from the Catholic Poor-School Committee at Chester, requesting my assistance in their design to provide Schools for the education of the poor and destitute C f that —atnotics of city. • "Under ordinary circumstances I should have been ready to testify my desire to promote the great cause of Education, without adverting to the religious tenets of its promoters, or to the peculiar forms of Christianity which it was their intention to establish. " But events haveoccurred which must make me pause. "The recent assumption of power by the heads of the Catho lic Church, in parcelling out this Country into new dioceses, and the appointment of Archbishops and Bishops to preside over them, together with the farcical enthronement of Dr. Ulla thorne, on the 27th ult., at Birmingham, and the insulting pastoral letter of Dr. Wiseman, must have created disgust in the great mass of the people of England, as it has in my mind, and I hope will not be tolcra.ed by the Government. " I am willing to believe that the Catholics of Chester are in, To way connected with, or responsible for these insolent usur pations' but I do not wish, by an y ac t o f m i ne, to appear in different to pretensions which threaten the peace and Aran quillity of the Country, and which are in direct opposition to the just and undoubted prerogatives of the Crown. " Under these circumstances I must beg to decline allowing my name to appear in the list of your subscriber.—t nn, Miv. Sir, • vat. umicrwers.-1 al Your obedient servant, GEORGE WILBRAHAM." "The Rev. E Carbery." The last few days have produced events of an unmis takeable nature connected with this daring assumption It is altogether out of our power to give anything fair representation of the manifestations ( - whit' lace in ev v. lllC KzuguoM. We will, however, chronicle a few of them, and merely observe that they are only a sample of similar demonstra tions elsewhere. The anniversary of Gunpowder Plot was observed with unusual feeling everywhere. In London, Exeter, &c. this was especially the case. The following description of a principal effigy and accorooanvinee ;‘, the Times ;— :1- Ab, from the purlieus c a ' group of G as by therm through the streets, must be fairly pronounced the pageant of the day. This group had evidently been got up' by some zealous anti-Romanists regardless of cost. It consisted of about fourtoen • • over by a colossal Guy about sixteen feet t, _who, elevated in his chariot,—a van drawn by rses,—was compelled to bow down considerably before he could be made to pass beneath Temple-bar. This pageant included an animate effigy of the new Car dinal Archbishop of Westminster, attired in the gau d y canonical robes of the Romish urch. and wearinc, fh :e and irian- irate—preA in heig two he red and broad-brimmed hat appertaining to his office. The Cardinal was supported on the right by a waggish fellow, habited in the robes of a nun, and upon the left by a jolly fat monk, who leered impudently under his mask at the passers-by.

Jruteed tle Papists themselves avowedly ground their prestitntltnos‘ ho Ms• upon thosajlesertions and those practices. The instances of converts to Romanism, though individually to be deeply lamented, are stilt not sufficient in number or. character to cause alarm to the Church or triumph to its enemies ; but the fact that some of them had before their desertion practised and recommended simEar alterations in the forms of our Protestant worship has caused uneasiness in the minds of n large portion of the laity, and tends to diminish confidence in their spiritual guides; a result in every way to be deplored. That the practices which have caused this alarm, have arisen in most cases from the warmth of pious and de votional feeling'. and that Him , nrp enticionnt of the idolatrous parts of the Romish system, I firmly believe. Nevertheless, no person can fancy that he is obeying the calls of duty when overstepping the injunctions of his Church, while the evil consequences are too palpable. I, therefore, take this • . , ,C 114.4 I, u bubpicton, nOw ever ill-founded, of your approving the peculiar habits and practices of Romanism." In reply to an address the Bishop of Ripon says— "ln the first place I should recommend that protests repu diating this usurped supremacy, now practically assumed for the first time since the Ref,irmation, should proceed from the clergy and laity of every parish in the diocese, as a permanent record of their resolution to resist this act of foreign aggres sion. Next I should advice that petitions be addressed to both Houses of Parliament, craving that a statute may be passed forbidding all, save those by law authorized so to do, from as suming or using the title of any Archbishopric, Bishopric, or Deanery, now existing or hereafter to be created, derived from any place within these realms. This will he a fresh vindication of the royal supremacy on the part of the legislature of this find will serve, I should trust. to noirr country ClnibLlCliceS of those who might otherwise feel a difficulty in taking the oath in favour of it, so long as the legislature seemea tacitly to acquiesce in the Papal assumption. I need hardly add, that in your own parishes and districts the utmost vigilance will be requisite in ascertaining Nsliat attempts are being made to tamper with the faith of your people by the emissaries of Rome. You will then be able to judge for yourselves how far it may be necessary to meet these aggressions by instruction from your pulpits on the points of controversy between the two churches; by the distribution of tracts, setting forth the errors of the Church of Rome; and by yet more diligent visit ing from house to house, that so you may in every way labour to drive away those erroneous and strange doctrines which the Head of that Church is now especially bent upon inculcating. I believe that he has miscalculated the effects of the step he has just taken; and that it will result in a more firm adher ence, on the part of the people of this land, to those pure and lynorinitrtlrnfnti at. imanuitcraieu trutns of tne gospel of our Lord Jesu - s Christ, which our forefathers vindicated in protesting against the cor ruptions of• Rome; while it leads many who have been inclined to regard that church with too favourable an eye, to acknow ledge that her spirit is unchanged. that it is irn.n..tht.. yumact.- pettucau ly in ner pretensions without betraying the cause of their own church, and consenting to the destruction, of which the idle sentence has now been launched forth against her." The Bishop of Exeter has replied to a l f, one of the .ay adart— __., parishes in Exeter, in which he condemnslin the strongest terms the recent "shameless demonstration of the true character of Papal Rome." His Lordship observes : PUCCI lOC, • " Whether this act be, indeed, as you designate it, an aggression on the constitutional rights and sovereignty of the wince mouern teg,istation has introduEed, I do not presume to say. If it be, it is manifestly the duty of the advisers of the Queer, to take steps to vindicate the outraged rights and hon our.of their Royal Mistress.

" We having been duly called, according to the Taws of this church and realm, to exercise spiritual functions in that town and part of your lordship's diocese in which this foreign Bishon now assumes jurisdiction, having solemnly declared that the Sovereign of England, under God, is the only supreme gover nor of this realm in all spiritual and ecclesiastical causes as in temporal, and that no foreign prelate ought to have any eccle siastical power, superiority, pre-erninence, or authority, within this realm, feel called upon to protest against this presumptu ous encroachment on the rights and honour of the Crown arid. kAiurcn or r.n_,giana, and crave direction s f r o m y our l ordsh i p how we may best vindicate the rights of our Protestant Church, and the principles of the British Reformation which we are sworn to defend. " We bare the honour to remain, my lord, your very faithful and obedient servants, &c., &c." The memorial was signed by eighty-one clergymen. Tha Rev. Dr. M'NETLE moved the adoption of the me morial, and hoped the Bishop would give a firm reply to it. The present meeting was important, as the great body of the laity were already prepared for action, and awaited • imPatiently the decision. There were two ways, he said, in which the country might speak out. They might either petition the Queen to call parliament together immedi ately upon the subject, or so strengthen her with memo rials that an order in council might be issued, which would upset the proposed usurpation. There was great difficulty of knowing how to proceed more decidedly ; be cause our statute-book had been gradually denuded of these anti-papal acts, which would have enabled us to have grappled at once with such a matter. (Hear, hear.) It was quite true that popular excitement, unless it could be followed up by le ga l en f orcemen t , wou ld su b side, and we should be left in the same position as before. The Roman Catholics, who knew that we could not touch them, laughed at us ; and said this was only " a storm in a teapot." There was no law against them; and they said, " Let these bigots rave their raving out." That was the tone assumed by the Roman Catholics in this town ; and the question was, how such a state of things was to be met ? It seemed quite clear that we must have some new enactment—that there should be such an ex pression of sentiment from the country, and from the representatives of the people, as would justify the ministry in recommending to the Sovereign an order in council for summary proceedings in the matter. He did not think it would be their place to put forward any definite measures in addressing the bishop, but it might be their place to address the Queen—to ask her Majesty to call parliament together for the discharge of important business. After stating that they only waited the result of this meeting to have a very large and effective public meeting in the town, the rev. gentleman proceeded to express his conviction that Rome could never rest with anything short , of supe riority. Equality was not a condition in which she could rest, although she might use it as a step or ladder on which to rise. Parliament had given her equality in secular matters, and the Pope sought to make ber spiri tually equal ; but she would not be satisfied with equality. Therefore, be believed the time was come when the Church of England must not only endeavour to keep What she had, but endeavour to remedy what was lost. (Hear, hear.) He thought the recent aggression had done more to rouse the slumbering energies of English protestantism than anything else could do ; and he called upon them to awake from apathy into activity, and to deal rite motion was seconded by the Rev. Mr. JONES. The Rev. Mr. Pol.,Locx said that he had meant to move an amendment, which he read, (and which was of a still stronger character than the memorial, referring to, your guidance at this juncture and protesting against, the past r ecogn iti on o f a Rotnish tne able and learned and n i ous men, w h o i n hierarchy inlreland), but as it was so desirable that e rFigh of the second James, when the Bishop of Rome en- their application to his lordship should be unanimo us , '-led the hope, which h e appears now to entertain, of fn his spi r it ua l dominion, fear this he would withdraw.

The royal mail steamer Dee, Captain W. Allen, arrived off Southampton on Sunday night with the overdue West India and Mexican mails. The Dee was detained two days at St. Thomas waiting for the Clyde, from the Gulf of Mexico, and has brought no mail or, specie from Tampico in consequence of a heavy northern having compelled the Clyde to put to sea without communicating. During the voyage from St. Thomas the Dee expe rienced a continuation of bad weather with adverse winds. This packet brings on freight specie value £280,480, of which 5'30,000 is for account of the Mexican dividend; also 154 serons of cochineal, and a general cargo. Large remittances are expected by the next packet from Mexico. •I . to the extent of about £2,000,000. a 1 VItI.U.AIC(7, The news from Jamaica is a few days later than rieiNew York. The cholera was, causing great alarm, many deaths having occurred. On the Isthmus of Panama there had been extensive rains, and in addition to cholera intermittent fevers and ague prevailed. Greytown was'improving, in consequence of the traffic from California by the Nicaragua route. Great sickness prevailed there, and her Majesty's ships Persian and Indefatigable bad a long list of fever cases, few, however, of which proved fatal. Our accounts from Panama mention an abortive attempt at revolution, which took place on the 20th of September, the principal mover in which was Dr. Theller, formerly a Canadian rebel. The object was to form the province of Panama into a new Republic, to be called New Columbia, and then annex it to the United States. The weather in the north-west islands had been season ahle, a fair proportion of rain having fallen. In Demerara the weather was dry, and produce came slowly to market. COLLISION BETWEEN PRUSSIAN AND AUSTRIAN TROOPS. Letters from Be:lin of the 6th instant contain the fol lowing important announcement :—lnt( ligerve has ar rived here from the Prussian head.quarterb, that a skir mish took place last evening between the Bavarian and Prussian outposts on the banks of the small stream which separates the Fulda from the Hanau district. The general c mmanding the Prussians desired that the stream,should serve as a demarcation line, between the two opposing corps, but the Bavarians declined, saying that they knew of no other line of demarcation than that of the con'ede ration ; and acting upon the word. pUshed on. Where upon the Prussians opened their fire, and the Bavarians withdrew to the opposite hank. Great anxiety is felt to ascertain whether this affair will lead to further conse quences. It is reported this evening that M. Von Ra dowitz has been sent for to resume office. The greatest excitement is said to prevail at Sans Saudi, where the cry is for open war, no matter what the means or eud. The Landwehr is ordered out. This suggests the question. whether the reserve men in the Holstein army will now be allowed to remain ? Probably they will. From Vienna we learn. of the 2nd instant, that the Federal army far the pacification of Germany is to consist of 120,000 Austrians, 60,000 Bavarians, and 20,000 Wnr temburg troops. The Emperor of Russia, in consideration of the'spirit of vassalage evinced at the recent Conference of Warsaw, is about to dispatch an agent to Frankfort. • The United Service Gazette states that six officers at least have now declined the command of Hong Kong. The Spanish government has resolved to establish on astronomical observatory at Madrid. General Changarnier has published an - order forbidding the French army to utter shouts of any sort whatever ! Several of the New York best artists have for some months past been engaged upon the novel task of produc ing a moving panorama of Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. A general Indian war is anticipated in Texas. The de predations by the Indians near Saliva are extensive. The daughters of a German were taken off by them. The Boundary Commission had reached San Antonio. A steam-boat company has been formed at St. Peters burg, for the navigation of the Wolga, the Kama, and their branches, an undertaking which will be of the highest importance to the internal commerce of the Rus sian empire. THE POPE INTERFERING AT CALIFORNIA.—There is a rumour at New York that the Pope has sent a well informed and eminent dignitary of his church to proceed to California, to ascertain the validity of the title of the Jesuit missions to a large portion of the territory. This investigation, if made, will cause a stir in California. THE HuTcHINsoNFAMILY.—JUdSOII Hutchinson, the singer, we are sorry to say, has been attacked with raving insanity. 'The family were giving concerts at Cleveland, New York State, when this melancholy affliction hefel them. He has been removed to his friends in New Hampshire. RACITEL.—When Mdlle. Rachel was lately at Carlsruhe, an aged and infirm Jewess called on her, and, after stating that she was in most indigent circumstances, gave her convincing proof that she was sister• to the cele brated actress's father. Mdlle. Rachel made her a pre sent of a gold watch, and agreed to allow her a pension of 900 f. a-year for the rest of her life. PignmoNT.—Letters from Turin of the 30th ult. re port that the Pope had excommunicated from the Roman Catholic Church the King; the civil and judicial authori , ties, and all other persons in Piedmont who had given their consent to the Siccardi laws. The Risor g imento and the Concordi a of the 2 n d i ns t an t, however, declare • thst there is no truth whatever in the rumour alluded to. A RESURRECTION iN PRUSSIA : DISCOVERY OF ONE OF NAPOLEON'S SPIES.—In digging sand in a field near the Royal Pheasantry at Potsdam, the body of a man in a French uniform of the time of the Empire has been found. It was in tolerable good preservation ; the but tons bore the regimental number 1364 In a pocket was discovered a bladder containing a dispatch, still legible, that proved to be the report of a spy, in pay of the French, directed to the general in command. JENNY LlND.—Miss Jenny Lind has made her appear ance at Tripler-hall, New York, at two concerts. The capacity of the hall admits of. nearly 3500 seats, of which 2000 are on settees and sofas on the floor. More than 2000 lights revealed the magnificence of this gorgeous aportment; but the thousands of happy faces beaming with joyous emotion gave a still more beautiful and bril .liant illumination to the scene. Miss Lind was greeted with the same irrepressible enthusiasm that she excited on her first visit. At the suggestion of Miss Lind, the prices of tickets for the remaining concerts are to be ma terially reduced. She wrote to Barnum to 'request him to lower the prices, and to take proper precautions to *vent speculators buying the tickets. AUSTRIA AND. PRUSSIA.—The present week has teemed with accounts from the continent of marchings and coun ter-marchings. After months of uncertainty Austris has put in motion her vast military strength to check the revolution-fostering spirit of Prussia. An Austrian and Bavarian army have been marched into Hesse Cassel. And an Austrian officer has arrived at Kiel witlidespatches from the Blind commanding Schleswig-Holstein instantly to cease hostilities under the penalty of compulsion by a superior force. This was an unexpected check to Prussia, and piores something lik e s checkmate, having led t o th e resignation of Radowitz, and a consequent change to more peaceful measures in the Prussian counsels. His succes sor, the Duke of Brandenburg, bad, however, a short ter nure of office. . On the '4th inst snt the , royal order ap peiicti in the Gazelle g iv i ng to bias 4he Foreign Ministry. We received on Sunday, by the arrival in the river of the royal mail steam-ship America, Neil Shannon, com mander, letters and papers from New York extending to the 29th, and, by electric despatch, via Halifax, telegraphic accounts to the 31st ultimo inclusive. The America's run fully supports her reputation for regularity and speed. She lett Boston, on this occasion, precisely at 1 p.m., on the 30th ultimo, made the run to Halifax in about 351 hours, received the mails and cleared from the harbour atter a detention of one hour, made the Skerries at 3 a.m., on Sunday, and arrived off the bar about 9 a.m., after a run from Boston, mean time, de. ducting the detention at Halifax, of 10 days 14 hours and 20 minutes; her speed throughout having been a very high average. She brought between fifty and sixty passengers, the usual mails, a fair freight of general merchandise, and £16,000 in specie. The United States mail steam-ship Pacific, Capt. Nye, arrived at -her wharf at New York, from. Liverpool, I 30, p.m., on Sunday, the 27th ultimo. The royal mail steam-ship Canada, Captain Harrison, arrived at Halifax at 10 a.m., on Monday, the 28th, and at Boston at 9 p.m., on the 29th ult. Her accour.ts were received by telegraph, at New York, from Halifax, early on the afternoon of the day following the Pacific's arrival out, but were not published until the next morning. The royal mail steam-ship Niagara was spoken by the Ameriea at eleven o'clock on Saturday night. It has been resolved to establish the electric telegraph between Quebec and Halifax. From St. Domingo we learn that the Dominican Govern ment were making great preparations to repel the in tended invasion of the Haytians. Their fleet consisted of one ship, one bark, three brigs, and a number of schooners. From Port-au-Prince advices we find that political matters there continue in a very unsettled state ; it was said that the friendly mediation of the foreign represen tatives had been positively declined. A large body of men had departed for the South, and others had embarked on board the fleet. There was no coffee in first hands, and the article was scarce. _ _ Our Mexican advices extend to the 28th of September. The result of the Presidential election was yet unknown. The finances were in a bad condition ; the Minister had demanded of Congress the 1,500,000 dollars remaining of the Mexican indemnity, and in default of this to authorize a stoppage of all payments. The railroad between Vera Cruz and San Juan was opened on the 16th of September. We have Havannah dates to the 20th ult. The stock of sugar was estimated at 35,000 to 40,000 boxes very low brown, at 51 to 6 dollars per arroba. Some few parcels of coffee were in the market, but the last European advices have influenced holders to demand 10 dollars 50 cents. Freights to Europe nominal. Exchange on London, 11 4 to 11 2 premium, with little doing. At twenty-fourpast eight o'clock on the 6th he died. The premiership, therefore, lapses to M. Von Manteuffel, in whom it had been temporarily invested during the illness of the Duke. POPISH MOVEMENT AGAINST EUROPEAN PROTES TANTISM.—The following remarkable intelligence we ex tract from the Morning Herald :—" Persons well ac quainted with the state of feeling in Germany affirm that there is a religious. sentiment at the root of the move ments which agitate that country, of which sufficient notice has not been taken. The Univers has spoken out. Tt announces to the world the advent of a new thirty years war in Germany, to terminate this time, according to the prophet of the Univers, in the extinction of Pro testantism in the centre of Europe. It is impossible (says this writer) for the two principles to subsist together —one or the other must be destroyed. Protestantism must be put down by force of arms, and will be put down. Should the Bavarians, Wurtembergers, and Austrians enter Hesse at one side and the Prussians at the other, the combat, should such take place, would at once assume the complex form of a politico-religious war between Popish despotism on one side and Protestant constitutionalism on the other. Let us thank the Uni vers for throwing off the mask and dealing with the same audacious candour with reference to Germany that the Pope has just shown in regard to England. It is well that the people of England will henceforth know, from the organ of Roman Catholic priesthood, that the time is supposed to have arrived for the extinction of Protes tantism in the land of Luther by arming the south against the north." POLITICAL MISCELLANY. It is said that Lord Stan 40 ley, of Alderley, will still retain his post of Under-Secretary of State. The Hon. B. Beilby Lawley, the eldest son of Lord Wenlock, is a candidate for the representation of Ponte fract. Lord Palmerston and Sheriff Alison are to be brought forward as candidates for the Lord Rectorship of Glas gow University at the election which takes place on Friday next. The Gazette, of Friday, publishes the treaty of peace, amity, commerce, and navigation, signed between her Britannic Majesty and the Dominican Republic, at Santo Domingo, March 6. Ratifications exchanged at Santo Domingo, March 10. Lord Palmerston has addressed a letter to the Greenock Chamber of Commerce, in answer to its memorial urging the suppression of the slave trade, expressing his concur rence in its views, and assuring the Chamber that the question continues to occupy the anxious attention of the Government. GUY FAWKES ON ' CHANGE.—The Morning Herald, giving an account of the money market of Tuesday, says, " The members of the house were a good part of the day occupied with the representations of Guy Fawkes, the Pope, and Dr. Wiseman, the titular Bishop of West minster—all of them being torn to pieces amidst the exul tation of the inmates. We notice this subject as a mani festation of feeling which has not been paralleled on the sth of November for many years past." [Similar mani festations took place in the stock exchange of this town.] ANOTHER SPECIMEN OF POPISH INTOLE- RANCE. Pio Nono appears resolved to show to the world that he is not the feeble and harmless old man which some of our Romanizing and liberal friends in this count the spiritual one is wielded with ' all7l;e s vTionr of the popes of old. ' Though he cannot control, unassisr , his own rebellious subjects, he can lay •sovereig empires under ban, as in the days when the thum.._ the Vatican were dreaded and obeyed throughout Chris tendom. Let the following paragraph, copied from the l overholding Times of Saturday, bear -witness that Popery is still un- "- changed, insolent, and ambitious of power as ever:— •` According to a telegraphic despatch of the 31th ult., frorr Ttfrin, the Commune Italiano states, that the Pope has P— municated the King of Sardinia, his ministers Lie parliamer to voted in favour of Siccardi's Excommunication in the nineteenth century ;,and of whom, and for what offence ?

Downing-street, Nov. 4 LAW INTELLIGENCE. -.- It. is. a fact stated by Lord John Russell, in his evidence before the Select Committee on Official Salaries, but not generally known in the profession, that, after his appoint ment as Chancellor, Lord Cottenham offered Sir Wm. Follett a puisne judgeship, which that learned gentleman declined. LEGAL PROMOTIONS.-Mr. Serjeant Allen, of the Oxford Circuit, and Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, of the Northern Circuit, have received a patent of precedence. Mr. Miller, of the Midland Circuit, will receive the coif. The vacancy occasioned! by the elevation of Mr. Martin, and the retirement from circuit practice of Mr. Whitehurst, have led to several applications to the Lord Chancellor for silk. In the Common Pleas, on Monday, Mr. Keating ob tained a rule to shew cause why there should not be a new trial in the notorious case of ":Bainbrigge v. Bainbrigge," on the ground that the verdict setting aside the will was against evidence. It will be remembered that the testa tor was a very immoral and eccentric man, whose daugh ter was as bad, and a granddaughter, to whom the pro perty was left, brought up in a state of gross ignorance and wickedness. On the trial his eccentricities were held by the jury t o b e t h e ev i dences of insanity, conse quently, 9uently, that th e t estator was incapable of making a in which case th e property would go to old man 's phews, his dau g ht er an d gran dd aug h ter b ei ng illegitimate.ti ne phews, " SAINT PATRICK'S POT."—This ancient relic was dug for twenty-one years ago, in the bog between Ballymena and Ballymonap, in the county of Antrim, Ireland, by the late John M'Veigh. feather-merchant, Belfast, and found forty feet below the surface. Mr. M'Veigli kept it very secret. and refused to exhibit it. The owner bought it from M'lreig h-lane, h's son, namely, John M'Veigh, feather purifier, Church-lane, Belfast. Tradition states th a t young Patrick was sold by 117 s master to the Romans for the money vase. Ho having attempted to boil it in vain, and hearing flirt Pat had returned to Ireland, an apostle of Christ, he felt convinced that the devil was in the pot; it was, therefore, consigned to the moving bog of Antrim, ,whence. it was recovered as stated.
