CON7'I,',IIYORAIIP PRESS. POSTOFFICE REFORM. Pfont the Poet Circular.) One of the most cherished watchwords of our intelli gent and prudent cou n t r y men. i s t h e " F ree d om o f t h e 'Press." What is . the freedom of 'the press but the free dom of commaricating- thought? A ready vehicle fOrthe transmission of knowledge.. Let a despot placea lookon : every printing office in the country, and proclaim that `not a sheet should be issued unless circulated by him self, according to his pleasure, 'well or ill—fast or slow— Until a tax of 2,3, and 400 pet' cent had been paid for his monopoly. Would the grievance be endured for a single hour? What is letter-writing but , the more-an 'cient and the infinitely more universal organ for com munication of thought than printing ? Men wrote long before they printed, and great as are the blessings and the effects of the press, inconceivably greater.have been those of written communication. The written Bible taught the knowledge of God, and sowed.the seeds of Christianity thousands of years before the printed Bible :expanded that knowledge. Man is little better than a savage Without a knoWledge of written charaCters. The employment of printing is an after stage in his civiliza tion. Communication by writing being at least equally as important as printing, how, do the people suffer it to ,be dealt with by the government ? [sit not encumbered with those oppressions, against which, if applied to print ing, the people would revolt though they were supported, by all the tyrannies in the world I -Not only does. the 'government monopolise the transmission of written corn- . munication, but it lays on a tax so heavy, and executes ,the work in a way, that ahnoskamounts to a prohibition 'of. correspondence. .We blame nu particular govern= ment for the present taxes on the transmission of thoright, but we dn indeed deplore that the expenses of the fate war should have occasioned such fiseal.enooachments on thi , —rile. Most essential organ of civilization.. Id 1735; the universal postage on letters, transmitted under fifteen miles, was one penny ; above fifteen and ,under.tbirty miles, twopence; above thirty and under eighty miles, threepence; and on all An% e eighty milegl the postage was only. fourpence. Be it remembe'red in 1765, there were'no mail coaches, (the cheapest mode of 4ransmission,) fevi direct roads, and those few inferior to the' worst turnpike-road of the present time—smallfaci lities for travelling—great inseeutity—and a population not half the amount of. the present. In .1835, with , all possible increased advantages of travel and transport,. increased- trade, progressive numbers and intelligence, the postage of one penny has become fourpence; of tWo pence, sixpence; of threepence, eig;htnenee ; of fnur pence, ninepence, tenpence, and elevenpence, &c.. In 1765, the true principle of postage, uniformity of rate, is carried out, probably as near as the Pustralice expenses of that time would allow ;- and the charges were evidently regulated on the principle mentioned by Lord Lumber, in his statesman-like report, that " the Postoffice was, to afford advantage to trade and commerce," and that ".re- venue to he derived from the Postoffice was not the pri mary consideration." Shall we not in this case at least advert to the " wisdom of our ancestors ?" Let us not stay to discuss the manifold advantages . to trade and commerce, and money -getting, nor the impetus to education, nor even the still dearer in crease o f th e blessings of religious and moral sentiments which a cheap postage would confer, but let the people raise their voices for the great principle of. Freedom of Speech,—for let ter-writing is but speaking at a. distance,—and let them tell the minister in tones r.ot to he mistaken, that their speech shall not be crippled - by - fiscal tyranny—let wi dowed mothers anxious to reclaim their children erring at a distance, lay the wishes of their hearts before the Queen—let meetings be held in every village and ham let of the kingdom, and petitions prepared for the legis lature—let deputations of science and commerce haunt the ministers, and : let the' whole p eo pl e Oont for the principle of "Freedom of Speech = with the cheapest profitable postage, or no government monopoly."

Such are the liege subjects which Popery affords and Maynooth furnishes. CHURCH . EXTENSION IN SCOTLAND. On Monday last the deputation from the committee of the General Assembly of the Church cif Scotland for Church exten . sion, consisting of the Rev. Dr. Afton, Dr. Anderson. Rev. Mr. Murray, and Rev. Mr. Christisou; was met by a num ber of highly-respectable and intiuentialgendemee, in tne Cla rendon-rooms, to organise a cominittee to whom should be et], trusted the arrangements for a public meeting, to . be held on tire return of the deputation from London, when the claims of • the Scottish peasantry, now destitute of the divine ordinances of religion, will be brought fully before the inhabitants of.Li / verpool. CRAWFOR D LOGAN; Esq.-was called to the chair, and briefly opened the business of the meeting. .He said the liberality of • the inhabitants of Liverpool; during the late winter, had been great, but the object of the deputation's visit to thii town was of so important a nature, that they could not hesitate again to ap peal for assistance to supply' the religions destitution of which the.deputatien wonid give the meeting interesting details. The plan proposed for its removal bad had the sanction of a long ex perience— it was a tried system—and would, no doubt, Meet the • approval of that meeting. • The Rev: Dr. RALPH then introduced the deputation to the meeting, and Dr. Atroe, of Dalphinton, one of the deputies, rose ,to ad dress the meetin g , but sa id h e wou ld not detain them . long. They had come, he said, on behalf of the Church of Scotland, • the very mention of which, he was sure, from what he had seen since their arrival in this town, would secure for them a favour able hearing and g ra tif y i ng response. ' At first he had felt great.diffidence on entering upon this mission, but his diffidence had given way to confiderit hope that they should not only be • well received; tint that they should carry back with them seine proofs of the well-known liberality of Liverpool. He wasaware that large sums had been subscribed in this town for the desti • tute Highlanders; but he was sure they should not he' disap pointed who came, not for meat-that perished], but for the bread of life for perishing souls in that land, where there were tens, fifties, yea hundreds of thousands destitute of spiritual and pas toral superintendence. The dissenters had done much, but there was a field beyond the 'pewee of dissenters to teltivate. . 'l'hev ('he deputation) had an desire to circumscribe the useful ' ness of dissenters, for ifit were so they might justly be charged with having undertaken an unchristian mission—but they were there to . obtain further aids for preaching to' the poor the uri searchable riches of Christ. ( Hear, hear.)' Many ,of those who would thus be brought under the preaching of the gospel might go to the dissenters, and,•therefore, this mission would be found to be promotive of their interests--certainly not opposed to •them, inasmuch as it would be the insane of extending the Redeemer's kingdom in the land. ( Hear and applause.) Large stuns had been raised in Scotland, and from 180 to 200 churches had been or were about' to he erected, and were iii the course of erection; and of these completed many were occup'.ed by devout congregations. That might be attributed to human agency; but he thought he did not say top Much when he said 'the agency was divine, and that they were but the - humble in struments. This was the first appeal of the Church of Scotland • to the Church of England in this country ' • and - when' he 'looked to the Scotch residents in thi s part of the kingdom —to their industry, moral habits, and respectability, he could pot but feel that there was something due tithe admirable system of educa tion pursued in Scotland. He believed Scotchinen were re speQted, not only here, but theoughoet the' world; and were he to.point out one thing more than another that 'tended to give them such business habits and intelligence, he should point to the strict moral and religion! ethication they received in their youth, in; which habits a n d religious feelings were inculcated that followed them through lif e . As they should have cippertu nities of going into detail on another occasion, he would not then further occupy their time, especially as his friend Dr. An derson would follow him; 'be,' in conclusion, he 'would expreis the gratification he had in meeting and addressing the respecta ble gentleman present on 'so interesting a subject. .• Dr..ANDEesort, of Newburgh; andther u7f the deputies, rose and said he did' not think it 'then nece4sary to detain the meet ing at any great length, but" he would just state, that in the • .course of their visit to this town he had met with something :that might militate against their mission. He had been told that their object was to make inroads on the dissenters—to put down their chapels—and-occupy themselvegthe room which 'dis senters occupied in their own country; 'but, said the rev. gen , •tleman emphatically, " we have no such object," for he gladly admitted that his countrymen were under great obligations to the dissenters for much of their instruction in their religions duties. They had been agairt'told that they were fanning a po !ideal mission; hut they had no such object either.' Their ob ject was not recently designed, for in 1828 a committee was ap pointed to procure church extension it was re-established' on a more permanent f o rm in'lB3l; and that was the rely objeet of the deputation's mission to this country. It was gratifying too to find that it was not confined to any nue party, but was parti cipated in by distinguished men of vatious parties in Scotland, who took a warm• interest in the cause which they came there to advocate. They did not wish to aggrandise their church at the expense of the dissenters; but they stood on - the ground of. their common Christianity, and soughtle bring a knowledge of the truth to those who had not hitherto 'had the' means of ae .quiring it. They had had it proved to them ; under a commiS sion new traversing their country, that Edinburgh had from 45,000 to 50,000, and Glasgow upwards of 66.000 inhabitants who had no means of Bearing the word of God, however willing —in other words, that if the sittings in their places - of worship were fully occupied, there were 150,000 still remaining that' would not be able to obtain an entrance into the temple of the living God. The church of Seothitid had long been awake to the itnpertance of the cause in which they were then.employed —it had been discussed in the presbyteries and brought before government, and a commission had been sent in consequence to inquire. and they found that there were from 40 to 50 churches ,! endowed, bid i nacceSsiblechapels built and sustained by the people themselves, who hair not access to theii parish churches —but after all there wi t s the 'grave and-important faCt that the spiFitual destitution was mos't alairMing. It was -- proved by a committee consisting of getitleinen rif the Church of Enl. - tiand, of the Church of Scotland, and of the secessioe church, that if their churches and chapels were-filled about dne-fourth•part of the 'inhabitants would be as much Sbut out of the temple of Jehovah as if they were residents in the 'Wilderness. Ile was sure the inhabitants of this conntry would net allow the depu: laden to return without something to aid them in" their obi ; he did not ask for muc h , bet as they were people of a kine- r dom- living under ononegovernment, and believing in one cotirmou Christianity—te e „ s i„,, i n which they must wish that others shetild participate —he confidently appealed' to English . - men. and knew he should not appeal in vain. After these remarks it was moved and seconded that a coui mittee be appointed of gentlemen present, with power to add to their number, to make the necessary arrangements for a.pub lic appeal to the inhabitants 'of this town ; that Mr. Grant he the treasurer,' and Mr. Parker the secretary, o h o i n the die , charge of his duties will lie assisted by the Rev. Dr. Ralph and the Rev. John Park. (See advertisement.) Rev. JcKN MURIss y, of Abbott's Hall (another of the deputies) then rose to address the meeting, and said he should confine himself to a few statistical details, which he quoted from an address published by the general committee. As that ad dress coutains a statement of facts startling 'and important, we think the better - plan.ie to give it to our readers entire. 'lt is as ' • "The Committee on Church Extension was first appointed in 1828, but it was not till 1834 that the General Assembly esta blished it in a permanent form; on the model of the Committee for Propagating the Gospel •in Fore'ign' Parts; since that time it has heen in efficient operation, having it as the one and truly Christian object of its institution, to piocide the means of reli gious instruction and pastoral superintendence for the many thousands of our fellow -countrymen who are destitute of that invaluable blessing. The following statements will enable the reader to form some conception of the grounds upon which the church has proceeded in instituting such a committee, and in making the consoquent appeals to the Christian liberality of the people of Scotland. "The simple fact that, while, during the last 250 years, the population of Scotland had increased from one million to nearly two millions and a half, scarcely any increase had taken place in the number of its parishes, was of itself sufficient to lead any mind to the conviction that the present provision for the reli gious instruction and pastoral superintendence of the people must be very inadequate. But during the last three orlotir years, a multitude of actual surveys have been taken, and accu rate investigations made, into the religious condition of the peo ple, and especially of the poorer classes, which have completely established the fact, and done much towards' determining the amount of the ecclesiastical destitution at present existing in Scotland, and which it is the desire of the Genera! Assembly as speedily and as effectually aspossible to remedy.. Much infor mation on this subject will be found in the two valuable repOrts of the religious instruction cdthinissioners, which are now be fore the public. " In the first of these reports, which relates exclusively to the presbytery of Edinburgh, the commissioners have stated respect ink; this city, that 'the number of persons capable of attending; who habitually absent thethSelyes from public . .wOrship, cannot be less than from 40,0(X) to 59,0(X), according to the age. ut which children may be supposed capable orattetiding . chuirch.' This neg l ec t o f p u bli c yirci-o l ip.' it is added, appears'by the evidenr:e to he almost entirelyeolifined'to the poorer elas-ses,'and chiefly to the very 'lowest.' • ' "Again, in their second report, the same commission state respecting what they call the United District of ROyalty. Barony, and Garbols , •f Glasgow, 'that a very large number of persons, upwards of 60,000, exclusive of children under • ten years'of age, are not in the habit of attending public worship:' '' In both these cases the commissioners take Intel Considera tion church attendance of every kind, and at ans place, in the estallishment, and among dissenters,' at regular chtirches; and at mere preaching stations. It it' obvious, therefore, that every expedient is adopted to swell the u n moor of church-attendelS, and the destitution which is thus brought nut;inust be and . thing else than over-stated." ".111 the reports or the royal commissioners, it appears that in-the two cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow alone, there are not less than about 116,000 persons, upwards of ten years of age; living in•the continual alli/rah/mai neglect of the ordinances - of religion— habitually absenting, themselves. from the House of God.. If to this number we add only 3-I,oou forehildren under the age specified—a 'number not too great, we have the specta cle of, a gross population of. 150,000 in these two ei . ties living altogether apart from the means of grace, wnlinut7God and without ho• e in the world. This fact,,when thus simply stated, appears to be startling epougb,:but a:few further observations may, place it in a more striking point olview. By the cen,surOf 1831, it appears that the entire population of each of the large and populous counties of Ayr, Perth, Fife. and - Forfar, did not amount to that ; number, Now, what would be felt and said, were it possibleto point to any one of these large and important districts of the country, and to say with fruth,_ that it did not contain a sing Christian eongregation —not even 'a, single Cdnistian man ? but that the darkness of deep and degrading heathenism brooded over all its families? Yet destitution, literally to this extent, exists at this moment, in the two cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow alone. Again, what would be thought, could we say of the three southern counties of Dumfries, Roxbury)), and Berwick, that they formed one scene of spiritual desolation--not one sin gle inhabitant of that large district of coontiy either seeking or professing to seek after God ? Yet these are so many immortal beings, in this condition, in Edinburgh and GliQgow alone, as very nearly equal the whole population of these three coun tries. Once more, could we form to ourselves a conception of the state of things resulting from a universal heathenism.pre-. vailing over the whole six conterminous counties of Berwick,. Roxburgh, Haddington, - Peebles, Selkirk, and .Linlithgow.; it would not .e;teeedswhat by. thaseport-oflier majesty's commis sinners is shown actually to exist at this tuonienr in the two ,principal towns of,Seetlatol •- ojr, s h o uld not be ; forgotten that it is among the poorest of the !sod, and loose, therefore, who are least able to de any thin, ter themselves to ametiorate thelr ecclesiastical condition, that this destitution chiefly prevails. This destitution, also, is of, _soaleeisandalistressing a kind that it wece•ie vain to at tempt, in Such a paper like the .present,.an adequate delinea tion of it. Nene, indeed, hut those who have had personal in tercourse with the inhabitants of such districts, can have a right conception of the degraded state in which hundreds are living Aruund als, or feet sufficiently the necessity that there, is for the moatefficacious means we can command being adopted, and-all the resources of christian benevolence within our reach being called into operation, in order to. effectuate- a. change for the better. , The documents, however; which. have been referred contain.not only a general. account of the destitution prevailing in Edinburgh and Glasgow, biltevidence of a very instructive nature respecting the destitution or various isolated .districts, In one district of St. Cuthbert's .parish,- for example, contain ing 511 families, or 2219 individuals, there were Ohm& to be only 283 sittings held of right in all. places of worship whatever —indicating a miserable deficiency in so large a district, in the habit of church attendance. _The whole, of the Trott Church parish„Edioburgh, is represented as containing 692 families, or 2,629 persons, but they have only : 331 sittings among them-, or : one for, every eight. inhabitants.,. Sonic smaller . districts are eveq_more striking, One oistrict in -St. Cuthbert's parish of 289 inhabitants has 13 sittings, or 1 for :every. 22 .persons; another of 248 has 8,.0r one for every 31 ; another of 210 has I(); or.l for every 21 ; .another in Old Greyfriars' ,parish 4303 hai 12, or 1 fur 25; another- in NewGreyfriars' of 266 has•lo, or. I for every 26. A. multitude. of detached districts besides these are referred, to, in which the ; rate. of seatholding to the whole .population isas,l in 7, 1 in 8, 1 in 14, 1 in 18, &c. • The state of things is similar, or even worse, in Glasgow. " With reference to the destitution, prevailing in Glasgow, and.. the efforts which .have ; been made to remedy it, w e m a y quote. the following striking paragraph from a -fate report of the Glasgow Church : Building Society, After mentioning that in Glas, s ow,.arid. auburbs.there are .no fewerthao.Bs,los persons capable of atteodingchurch,.whohave,not asitting in any place of worship, established ordissentiog, ofany denomination,what ever,'-and that 'there are not fewer than 18,004 families, no : member of which has a sitting in any place of worship whatever,' -111,e report proceeds to say,—`.The Glasgow Church Building Streiety commenced their operations in the beginning of the year 183-1, .and though the three years which have. elapsed since that period down to the close of the year 1836. has 'been a period of • beueficence and of unusual exertion for increasing the ,church ,accommodation of our city,, yet it is a striking: and no fess"deeplyaffeeting rapt, that,. with the combined efforts of our society .rtnd . the dissenters of all denominati ons , we h ave not , heen able to provide church aecorninottation for one-half of the increase of the population ionce our society commenced their la bours in 1531 F-rotu the Ist of January,. 1834, to the 2d ,of January, 1837, it is supposed that the population of. Glasgow and .suburbs have increased 21,000 souls. For these 14,400 sittings would have been required, and Vet the whole additional churches which have been opened during that period, Ponnected both with the estaldishment and dissenters, contain only 6562 sittings, leaving a deficiency of ehurch accommodation for the .ntere increase of the population,. of no fewer than 7838 sittioes Thus, theater_ 6562 orah.e increase Mille population-have, (hiring Ihat . period, been provided for, 7838 orthat increase have been left tinprevided for, and this u ith tneefforts of the establishment and,dissenters cern:bitted. And thus, great as was the spiritual destitution of our city before we commenced opt labours, the close of every year finds it greater than before. "But it is - not in Edinburgh and Glasgow alone that grievous destitution is found to prevail. In all-our large:towns, and in many of our-coutortparish . es, the most st r e nuous exertions a r e • called for in.behalf of perisloug thousands of our fellow-cOuntry •men. In only five parishes in Dundee, statistical inquiries lately instituted, terminated in the appalling result of 36 624 of .a population, and 15,918 ofthese, above seven years of age, and capable of. attending. divine ordinances, without a right of ac couttnodation in any place of worship whatever. Similarstate ments may •be -matte respecting Paisley, Aberdeen, Falkirk, Duinteradine, and all our large towns. In the parish of Dun ,donald, until lately, there. was -a population of 5867, with ono - church only, containing 627 sittings: Tne total population of Uig, in the presbytery of Lewis, is 3041, all of them members id' the established church, and the church, which is the only .place of worship in the parish, contains 900 sittingiit. The parish of Lochs, which is 35 miles long and 18 broad, intersected by mouutains, morasses, rivers, and arms of the sea, has a:populis t tints of 3388, and th e on l y p l ace o f worsh i p is the parish Church, :.capable of -containing 700 sitters. .The civil parish of Loch .-broom.is about 36 miles long by 20 broad, and contains a popu , 'tuition of 5206. Of these, 2400. are included in the vioad sacra. pariah attached:to the parliamentary church of Ullapoel,' which accommodates .600 sitters, but unwards 4,1000 of the inhabitants of this. quoad sac,: parish are 12 miles from Ullapool. At Fort William, there is a population of 1600 separated from the 'parish .church by au arm of. the .sea and the river Lochy; for these, ' steps are. being taken to provide a new church. Until the - hew •Church..was erected Lyhster in Caithness, the inhabitants of that village, amounting to 1500, and had no other Church to go to but the parish ehuich, or that of the mission of Bruan, both ,at the distance of from four to five miles; and while the parish of-Latheron .contained 6500 inhabitants, the church - and'abe mission-house together furnished accommodation only to• 1320. •In Glenelg there.is the•village of Amisdale with 900 people, 'and at, the distance of 12 or 14 miles from the parish church. In the varishiattached to, the parliamentary church of Puolewe there is A district called the . Leigh, containing a population of 1500 souls, and these, are from titto 12• miles• distant front the' parish' church, without a place:of worship of any description whatever.. ; These ts:e• but a few of the specimens. of that fearful destitution which exists at ibis moment in every quarter of the land. It.will.nolibbe apparent to every one who will attend to the above statenielfts, that there is a loud and urgent call for chris- Oen- liberality and christian exertion, in order to bring the les sons of the gospel to bear on such heathenized masses of our country's population, and that the General Assembly is fully justified in making so earnest an appeal to the country in behalf of the great cause of church, extension. . A wide field of mis sionary enterprise is spread around us. We can turn to the 50,000 rational, accountable, and immortal beings in Edinburgh, .and the, 66,000 in Glasgow,,who are living in the utter neglect of even the commonest duties and services of religion ; and to the thousands and tens of thousands similarly circumstanced in -nearly all the counties of Scotland besides, and are there pre sented with the spectacle of large and numerous tracts of spi ritual. desolation, urgently.;tletnanding the efforts of Christian philanthropy to redeem them—a work, which nothing but the strenuous and *sustained, exertions of many years will be ade quate to :accemplish, Buy just because this field of missionary enterprise is so accessible, does there appear to be the stronger season for its being undertaken. Moreover, if the precept, or Ga- and preach the gOspel to every creature," establishes a re lation between the Christian and his fellow-men even in the remotest corner of the world, that relationship appears to he all the stronger, and the obligation to obey the precept all the more solemn and imperative, when it concerns our very neighbours and fellow-countrymen, those who speak the atone language, wholive :under the same laws, and who, perhaps, in their in fancy, were, baptised in the same name with ourselves. "The only remedy which the General Assembly believe, under the. blesSlitt: of God, is fitted to 'remove the wide-spread evil above explained,. is. the efficient operation of the parochial sys em. They wish to see these vast mural wilderneSses brokeifhp, and divided into districts small enough to be each cultivated-by the labour of one minister; they would erect a church easily accessible to.all the district. attached to it as a parish; and they would have either no seat-rents at all, or seat-rents low enough to be adapted to the circumstances of the poorest families-in the neighbourhood. They believe that were this Machinery cart ied into vigorous operation throughout theaand, anti every little dis trict its own clergyman, who faithfully and diligently' carried the lessons of the gospel front house to house, its own elders and other ecclesiastical office hearers, to co-operate with the mini ster iin the great work of improving the condition of the people of their charge, its own schools and teachers for the mural and religious, as well as intellectual training of the young, and were the out s pouring, of the Spirit of God to accomp:aly such efforts in the cause of truth,—they believe that were this the case, the most remarkable effects would be produced in an inconceivably shout period, on the temporal well-being and religious character of the general population. What is now a desolation would be come as a field which the Lord had blessed. . ''The labours of the Church Extension Committee have hi therto been so far blessed, that in a space of less than four years steps have been taken for the erection of no less than 180 new churches. Of these, about 100 have already been opened fur public worship, and nearly I nat number have fixed and permit nent labourers. In all these, the most complete and remarkable success has attended the experiment of opening the new church, and the most beneficial effects have been produced on the neigh bouring population. A single instance cf failure is not known to the committee. "The mere fact, that in so short a time 100 new churches have been opened, and 100 new con gregationsformed, is striking, but the more it is considered, it will be felt to be the snore impres sive. That we may more sensibly feel the power of such an an , n , uncement,let us conceive how we would be affected, and what we would say, were we informed that 100 missionaries had set sail to some distant part of the world, to Christianize-the hea then in India, or the interesting islands of the South Seas. Would not the mere statement arrest the attention, warm the heart; and call forth the prayers and blessings of every Christian soul ? But suppose that, in addition to this, it were possible to report .that each of these. devoted missionaries had gathered around him a numerous and attentive congregation, that ICO to.w churches had actually been erected, and that, from sabbath to sabbath the voice. of psalms, , and the accents of prayer, anti theaithful ministrations of God's word.and sacraments more to be — heard. and witnessed in many a populous town, and many a sequestered valley, where vice and ungodliness and 'spiritual darkness prevai ed before, is there a Christian man in this court- try Whoseiteart would. nut burn within him, as in imagination lie contemplated the refreshing spectacle, and who would not rejoice in the proof thus afforded, that the spirit was yet powerful a s ever, and. that God had not left himself without a witness? But all this has actually been done. One hundred missionaries have already been sent to the heathen at home; and this with uni versal and most encouraging suec.ss. A signal blessing-has at companied,,the efforts of the church extension committee. They have not laboured in.vain. Where all the efforts put forth in the church extension cause to terminate in the salvation of but one soul—the country would. be richly repaid for all the money and all the labour. whichlave been expended in this way. But is there not eyery.reason for forming a much higher estimate, and that- Ihe opening of. these new.ch urches will be instrumental in awakening multitudes, andripening them for heaven—multitudes wini in eternity will associate their earliest impressions respect ing heayeniy things with these new churches, and bless the in strumentality by which the work of their preparation for the eternal world was effected? wort: .forgotten()l preparin g th r e in sgam soeuls time,fi)r ".Every contribution,. therefore, to the church exten s i on scheme, is really helping, on the eternal glory. , But it need cot be that every such contributor is also taking one of the best. steps to -secure the temporal happiness .of his fellow -countrymen. Whereyer true religion •is maintained, there also will peace, and contentment, and comfort, be. found prevailing; and they, are the best benefactors of their, brethren, not only in eternity, hot also in time, who would teach then► the fear of God and the keeping of his commandments. Every new church that' is erected, is a new centre from which the. most benign influence is radiated forth upon the surrounding population,Lis theOPen ing of a new spring in the .desert. We read of the effects pro duced by a continued flow of a stream of water in the sultry climates of the.east. All. round may be a barren and dreary waste, but the neighbourhood of the spring itself, and the banks of thestream that issues from .it, is a region of beauty. and verdure, and fertility. Now what is a church with a faithful minister, but a spring of living water,—a fountain-head of th e stream of life; and let these be but sufficiently multiplied, and let the healing waters circulate among all the families of, the land, and we may expect to see the wilderness and the solit ary place become glad, and the desert rejoicing and blossoming-as the rose. " The. Church Extension Committee have peculiar claims at present upon the attention of the country. .Their funds have, in consequence of grants to the above-mentioned new churches, been for some time completely exhaust-d, and upward of thirty new places of worship are waiting for the usual assistance from the central fund, which, in consequence, has claims upon it, at the present moment, to no less an amount than £BOOO. It is evident that-unless the friends of the church in this city and throughout the country contribute with even more than their rHE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. ordinary liberality to the Assembly's Fund for Church Exten .ion. this great work, so fell of promise for the glory of Gol, and the best interests of onr fellow countrymen must be checki,t 'and discooraged. But the committee co otidentlY believe t hat this appeal will not be made in vain. if the apostle has said. that that man is nut actuated by love to (let, who can see hi.c lirother in want of merely bodily necessaries, acid fail to re lieve him, much more may the saying be repeated. With respect to insensibility to the claims of the tens of tens of thoos,aidsof our fel ow-countlythen Who 'are perishing around us for lack of knowledge." Dr. ACTON, one of the deputies, then explained that their scheme embraced pot only church accommodation, but the erection.of schools by the side of the churches, which has been found so valuable to the Scottish peaSanthr. A vote of thanks was then given to the chairman for his con duct in the chair, and the meeting was dissolved. _ • SERIOUS REVOLT AP SEA. (From the New York Daily Express, March 13.) An examination took plaCe yesterday in the U.S. court room, before Judge Betts, of the crew (24 in num ber) of the ship Shakspeare, Captain Collins, upon a charge.of mutiny, during het late voyage from Liver pool to this city. From the testimony of Captain Collins it appeared that abOut the 2901 February last, about 8 o'clock a.m. • a portion of the crew comprising the starboard watch came - aft, and complained to him of the bad quality of the bread served out for the use of the men. Capt. Collins replied to them that the bread etmiplained . of being at the bottoM of the locker,, all cause of complaint would be removed, at tWelve o'clock, when the new locker would. be broaclied, from which the bread would be - served,.and that it was all important that there should be no waste of bread; with that explanation - the 'men went away, and Captain Collins thought'no more Of the matter. At. twelve o'clock, 'upon the laibeard watch being called tO duty, all hands refused to come up. It blowing pretty fresh at the time, and a heavy sea run ning, Captain C. found it necessary to takO:in sail, and was compelled to sand the two Cooks, the, two stewards, and the mates aloft to fur I the fore Sail, who was assisted in that duty. by the Captain, the man at the wheel, and a green hand, who had stowed himself away on board when the vessel left Liverpool. After the ship had been laid to under close reefed'topsails, Captain CollinSWent to . the steerage and personally ordered all hands on deck, threatening that, in case of their refusal, he would fire upon them. Not being obeyed, Captain Collins. dis charged the contents . of three pistols into the steerage; the first being discharged with a blank cartridge, and the two others with balls. Upon the discharvie of the third pistol the men came on deck, but still manifested a desire to continue their insubordinate conduct, where upon three of the ringleaders were tied to the rigging and flogged, when they promised to return to their duty. 'Some of the Others wereplaced below in irons, and kept upon, b?ead and water until they, consented to perform their duty. The accused brought forward John Welsh, the sea man who was at the wheel at the time of the revolt, who testified that the bread criven to the men to eat, was mouldy and wet, and unfit for use. Upon a cross.ex arnination, he admitted that the people's• breakfast on the morning of the revolt, consisted of a quart of pota toes to each man, a quart of Coffee, a small a ll owa n c e of boiled beef, and some sweetbread dealt out with that of an inferior quality. • Judge Betts observed to the prisoners that their con duct was altogether unjustifiable, inasmuch as it would have been in their poWer, provided improper provisions had been served Out, to have souglit redress in a court of justice upon their arrival in port. This was a case of a most flagrant nature, as it appeared from the statements made that the.weather,was so rough at the time the crew refused to come on deck, that the want of their services endangered not only the safety of the ship, but the lives of every one on board of het. The prisoners were required to give bail in the sum of 200 dollars each for their appearance at Court to an swer the charge, and in default of which they were com mitted to prison.

In consequence of very boisterous weather during the greater part of the week, the at rivals of Grain and Flour into this port since Tuesday have been unusually light, and of Oatmeal, even by steamers', only moderate. Although the weather of late has been very favourable for spring tillage, the prevalence of cold harsh winds continues to check vegetation, which, is of course, extremely backward for the season; but hitherto without producing any visible effect upon the corn trade here. At this days market there was a very limited attendance of our town millers, and scarcely any from the country; but hav ing no large show of Wheat upon the stands, and the trivial supply flesh in, seeming to give the holders somewhat increased confidence. Sales were by no means pressed, and in some in stances rather higher prices were required; the buyers, how ever, refusing to pay more.money. Transactions on the whole were upon a moderate scale, and the current rates of Tuesday unvaried. Flour was in slow request on the terms last noted. • Barley, remaining scarce, good malting samples would sell freely, 'and all other descriptions support their lute value.-- Malt, Beaus, and 'Pease ruled precisely as stated in our report of Tuesday. Oats and Oatmeal continued to meet some inquiry, and the sellers remained firm; but unable to effect any extensive sales to-day, ae can only repeat our last quotations.

LIVERPOOL CORN,EXCIIANGE,APRIL 17 - . - Since Tuesday last, the imports of Grain froin'lrelandand Coast ways haVe been very moderate, but of Oatmeal and Flour rather con siderable, and the demand here and in all our country markets has during, the past week been very dull for almost every article in the trade, at A small reduction in prices, exeepting_pn the:most superior qualities; a similar remark is applicable to the Yorkshire markets of the past week, and to that of Manchester on .Saturday. There is no alteration in the duty on Wheat and Flour from for"ign ports this Week, but on every other kind of Grain it is reduced is 6d per quarter. No sales of bonded Grain 'or Flour worth notice have occurred; and the prices thereof remain as in our last. At this day's market the transactions in every article in the trade were to a very small extent ; the prices of last Tuesday were barely obtainable, - even for the heat qualities, and although purchases were made „in seine instances, at a small reduction. we make little or no alteration-in our last quotations.
