The exhibition of flowers and fruit by this society was held as usual, in the beautiful grounds of the Royal Rock Ferry Hotel, on Thursday last. Unfortunately the day, though dry, was gloomy and threatening, which prevented so great an attendance as upon finer occasions ; but the collection of plants exhibited, though not large, was of finer cpality than usual, and some specimens were of remarkable superiority. A Cattleya Mossim, from Thos. Johnson, Esq. of Runcorn, surpassed anything of the kind ever exhibited, probably in the kingdom • it measured 2 feet 3 inches diameter, and had 45 of its noble flowers fully expanded. It is much to be regretted that this society is not better supported •, before fhe financial crises at Birkenhead and Liverpool, there were noble families of taste and spirit, who made this flower show one of the most pleasing meetings of the season ; they have passed away ; but their places are not vacant, neither is there any lack of wealth ; and we hope also that the other essen tials exist, but lie dormant for want of knowing the his tory and standing of the society, which has always been of a superior cast.

DISCOVERY OF A MURDER.—A woman named Fle ming, residing at 'Kilkeasy, in the county of Kilkenny, has voluntarily informed the police of that district of a murder committed about Christmas, 1847. She stated that she chanced to pass the door of John Walsh, at Castlegannon, and turned for the purpose of going in,.but drew back in terror upon beholding the body of Welsh's brother-in-law, Thomas Ball, a cow-jobber, lying dead and covered with blood on the floor, and Walsh and his daughter making ready to remove it by the back door. She contrived to get away unobserved, and having told her husband what she had seen, he enjoined her never to Ci vulge the circumstance during his lifetime. She promised not to do so, and kept her word. On inquiry the police found maws• circumstances to corroborate the truth of her story. Ball had been suddenly missed from the lo cality' when he was known to have a large sum of money, and a search having been made at the house of Walsh, who with his daughter was arrested, a skeleton was discovered buried near the back door, the skull appearing to have been fractured. An inquest was held on the remains, and a verdict of "Wilful murder" was returned against Walsh, who was immediately committed for trial. The subjects of Dr. Mastai Ferretti in Ireland are sere ; their master well, and uttering howls of defiance against the legislature of the Protestant Sovereign and people of this empire. The Tat et furnishes one example of the obedience borne by Papists to the laws of this country. In its last number it says—" Catholics of these islands, lay and clerical, are laughing at the legislature, breaking the law, and making fools of the whole Imperial Parliament, with Speaker and Lord Chancellor to boot. What a repulse given to territorial aggression ! What a salvo to the dignity of the British lion ! What a fool, by the way and in conclusion, the said British lion must be !' no doubt, will be eest , tic at „‘ stc. at every little insult flung by his children at the supreme authority of these realms. This species of work was well done at Nenagh by a father, who declared that, in spite of the British legislature, the Roman Pontiff would continue paramount Ireland, and that, if opposition to such supremacy , . . were persevered in, the Irish Papists would he " ready to meet the worst !"

THE CHURCH AND FOREIGN RELIGIONISTS (From the Morning Herald.) The inspiring genius of the Morning Chronicle, who, under the initials of " D. C. L.," performs more than editorial duty in that Journal, is, as might be expected, sorely annoyed at one of the results of the " Great Exhi bition." Various religious bodies in the metropolis have felt their obligation to provide for the multitudes of fo reigners who are now visiting London some special means of Divine worship and religious instruction. The case was a new, and the appliances needed to be new also. The Dissenters of London not only devoted some of their Pulpits to this particular purpose, but they engeged Exeter Hallalso, wheresomeof their best preachers have assembled during the last five or six Sundays large audiences. The Church was not backward in the same work. Special services were announced in St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, in St. Pancras' parish, and in var ious other churches. But something was still needed to meet the case of those nu merous foreigners, whose knowledge of the English tongue was too slight to enable them to benefit by an English service. To meet this want another plan was devised. Some of the best preachers of the Reformed Churches of France and Germany were invited to enter the pulpits of some of the licensed chapels of the Establishment, and therein to preach in French and German—the Liturgy being previously read in the same tongues. In this way, in Portman Chapel ; in Trinity Chapel, Colquit-street; and in Woburn Chapel, Messrs. Roger, Grandpierre, and Merle d'Aubigne have preached. The latter preached on Sunday last in Woburn Chapel, Tavistock -square. The prayers were read in French by the Rev. R. Burgess, rector of Upper Chelsea ; and a large congregation attended, among whom were observed the Duchess of Sutherland and her daughter, the Hon. A. Kinnaird, and many dis tinguished foreigners. This fact has sorely perplexed and grieved " D. C. L." When informed that these things have taken place with the knowledge and approval of the Bishop of London he asserts at once that " this is plainly impossible." He adds, that Dr. D'Aubigne " is punishable by a three months' imprisonment.' If so, why does he not, for the prevention of future offences of the same kind, at once put this law in force? But having first satisfied himself that the bishop's ap proval of these services is " impossible," he next proceeds to demand " strong and courageous measures on his lord ship's part to purge the Church of a scandal which he cannot, in consistency with his duty, leave unredressed." " Fos the proceeding resolves itself into the denial of the Apostolic succession, and the denial of the Apostolic suc cession is the denial of Apoatolicily." Awful! But is it not somewhat strange that it should not have occurred to " D. C. L." that this " denial of Apostolicity" has taken place in various ways, during centuries past. For instance, we have a National Church in Scotland, and that National Church is, shocking to say, Presbyterian. And being so, Kings and Queens of England have recognised it as the Church established in that land, have sent Royal Commissioners to its annual assemblies, have attended its worship when in Scotland, and have passed many laws in which it is declared to be " the Church." Aye, and these laws have passed with the approval of bishops and archbishops of our Church of England—being present, and assisting at the making of them. The simple truth is, that for centuries past the Church and Sta`e of England, and the best ecclesiastical writers, have simply regarded Presbyterianism as a less perfect system of Church government than episcopacy. Hence they have not unchurched the Church of Scotland, or the Reformed Churches abroad ; but have dealt with them as with sister Churches not so happily circumstanced as oar own• And this feeling has been extended, by some of the highest names in our Church, to .Protestant Dissenters also. Archbishop Sancroft was a non-juror. He is a sort of model prelate with the High Churchmen of the present day. Yet Archbishop Sancroft, in bis injunctions to his clergy, published in 1688 thus instructs them, as to the proper demeanour to be observed towards Dissen ters : " That they also walk in wisdom towards those that are not of our communion ; and if there be in their parishes any such, that they ne g l ec t no t f requent /, to confer w i th them in the spirit of meekness, seeking by all good ways and means to gain and win them over to our communion : more especially, that they have a very tender regard to our brethren the Protestant dissenters ; that upon occasion offered, they visit them at their houses, and receive them kindly at their own, and treat them fairly wherever they meet them, discoursing calmly and civilly with them ; persuading them (if it may be) to a full compliance with our Church. or at least that whereto we have already at tained, we may all walk by the same rule, and mind the same thing.' And in order hereunto, that they take all opportunities of assuring and convincing them that the bishops of this Church are really and sincerely irreconcilable enemies to the errors, imuerstu ons, idolatries, and tyrannies of the Church of Rome; and ;hat the very unkind jealousies which some have had of Its to the cont i ary were altogether groundless. And, in the last place, that tht y warmly and most affectionately exhort them joia with us in daily fervent priyer to the God of Peace, forthe nnivers: IMessed union of all Reformed Churches both at home and ab. cad against our common enemies; that all they who do confess the holy name of our dear Lord, and do agree in the truth of his Holy Word, may also meet in one holy communion, and live in perfect unity and godly love." These injunctions are given in the late Rev. Dr. "YleY's Life of the Archbishop. published under the immediate sanction of the last Primate. "D.C.L.," therefore, will find little countenance in his pious horror at PicOyteriniora h tiny of the beads of our own Church. as . given to Messrs.

It was clearly proved that the train was thrown off the line by a wooden sleeper having been placed on the outer rail, but no light was thrown upon the agency by which it was placed there. The proceedings were adjourned until Saturday, when the jury returned the following verdict :—" We find that the deaths of the de ceased were caused by the train running off the rails and passing over the Newmarket archway ; that a broken sleeper was found on the spot after the accident, but by what means it came there does not appear to the jury; that in this instance the tender preceded the engine, and that the train passed down the Falmer incline at a greater rate than directed by the company, and the jury are of opinion that such practices are dangerous, and that had the engine been placed first, or the tender been provided with iron guards, the probability of safety would have been much increased ; that the jury express their regret that so much connected with this accident should have been moved before their inspection, by which they were prevented from so complete an examination as otherwise might have been afforded." LAW INTELLIGENCE, Lord Dundrennan, a Scotch judge, the successor of Lord Jeffrey, died on Tuesday at Edinburgh. SERIOUS DAMAGES.-A Bail Court jury has given £1,500 damages to a Post-office clerk, who sued the North-Western Company for damages in consequence of serious injuries received b 3 him while he was sorting the letters as the train was in progress. The cause of the ac cident was a collision near Harrow. Mrs:Qrs. Blackwood were sued, on Friday, at the Court of Common Pleas, for £5,000 damages for libel on Captain Helshaw, the hero of a trial for duelling in a recent paper in Blackwood's Magazine, the plaintiff contending that, by the publication of the life, his good name and reputa tion had been brought into public scandal and disgrace, and that he had been shunned and avoided by divers per s )ns. For the defence, an honourable regret was expressed, and the case was adjourned until yesterday, in order that a satisfactory apology might he framed. In the Bail Court, on Thursday, the Rev. Peter Daly, Roman Catholic priest, of Galway, in Ireland, obtained a rule to shew cause why a criminal information should not be filed against Bradbury and Evans, printers of Punch, for a libel on that gentleman in the publication of the 19th April. The article complained of was headed " A Chris tian Hero—his Cross and Lucifer Box," and commented with great severity upon a speech said to have been de livered by the plaintiff at a dinner in Galway, which speech, in fact, was spoken by another party, Mr. John Francis Blake. THE NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—The lion .Mr. Baron Platt, and the Hon.

DKLAYS IN CIIANCERY.—From the very centre of the dead level of modern social and humanitarian institutions crops out occasionally a harsh and jagged anomaly, serv ing only too faithfully and vividly to remind us over what rude and barbarous elements our civilization is spread, and how near the rock lies the smooth and smiling sur fece. Thus, in our " law report" of Friday, in the same sheet which contains the doings of the Great Exhibition, the meetings of alt manner of philanthropic societies, and the deliberations of that legislature which is the model after which all Europe aspires in vain, is found the follow ing case : FRISBY V. STAFFOR I "This was a motion made on behalf of :lir. Walter Manners for the payment of £5,400 into-court. "The suit was instituted in 1815, and a motion made in 1817 for payment of the money into court. The case was now argued at some length. " Mr. R. 'Palmer said he would be content to take an order for payment into court, on or before the last seal, of a sum to lie named in the order, being equal to, at the price of the day, the amount of ..f5,400. Three-and-a• Half per Cents. the costs of the order to be costs in the cause. " This was agreed to, and the order was accordingly made." We probably expose ourselves to the reproach of being little versed in the mysteries of Chancery, by offering a single remark on the facts which this brief report discloses. No doubt a Chancery suit of only six-and-thirty years standing is a thing at which it argues great ignorance to a mere express either astonishment or indignation. co. T ife b na i t rt s y p - a s e ix years are something in the life of a man, of a nation, of a e bete Chan ceryeytesseti t o ht r eh e em v y e a n ka ri o ne f a a a a p n l da briefn r e e t n , i e h ltw u e tirn%i renewing interval, e uas h t , m s t s o ou r tfo n decent pause in the slow and stately march by which parties proceed to what, by a fine irony, we are in the habit of calling "equitable relief." When this old suit was new, the counsel who have succeeded to its ma nagement were probably babes in arms, and the judge before whom it is heard a truant scho o lb o y. Si nce the parties first applied to this dilatory tribunal for the deter mination of their rights three monarchs have succeeded to the aged Prince in whose reign it was commenced ; two dynasties have reigned and perish e d i n F rance, to g i ve place to a republic,. which thi s i nex h aust ibl e li t i gat i on may probably survive. The occupant of every throne in Europe, and every prominent office in the English church and state, has been changed, but still the inexorable Chancery suit holds on its way, permanent in the midst of never-ending change, the only immutable thing in an era of restless transition. Mr. Roundell Palmer said he would be content with payment before the last seal. At the rate, and on the scale at which Chancery moves, the last trumpet would seem a more appropriate term.-- T imec Lord J ated I
