teft-thestalremonies of popery, you have the poison of popery. This must be put away ; we must preach as Luther preached, oe'weywill never stand against popery. We must' declare the poet of Jesus ; we must declare the 41-sufficiency of the one sacrifice once offered for us—the free, unconditional, and ever lastitig pardon to the vilest sinner that ever stood on earth. (Applause.) We must declare that while Jesus is high as God that we'need none above him for us between hint and God, so buis as low as man, touched with the feelings o f our infirmities, that we need none below him between us and him to be a me diator or mediatriz to bring us to Christ. This must boplainly set forth, the all-sufficiency of Christ tor the salvation of sinners. Look in your ancient books; look at Latimer and Bradford, and see how they preached. Look at any .of the ,continental reformers preaching, and compare it With the soft—excuse me, I must be honest—the gentlemanlike half.and-half gospel that passes for preaching now-a-days. (Loud cheering.) Let Sue tell you our enemies are not of that soft character; that the gen tlemanlike tone will not touch them; the bide of the leviathan will never be bruised with silk gloves. Unless pluralities, non residences, sinecures, and such offences , as ought never to have been in her, are driven from the. church of England, she will fall, and she must fall. And I say that 'honestly protesting against abuses in her gives me more point whenever (and I will continue to do it) .I protest against abuses out of.her. • Honesty is the best poliey after all; it. will never do to attempt to bolster np•ourselves. We must be faithful reformers, or else we. must go before; the stream. (Loud cheering.) But, sir, there are reasons especially why we should agitate this question; and wish to show you one in particular, and that is, that the Roman Catholics, as I have ahead) , said, teach immorality ; that they really teach immorality. I hold in my hand extracts from their book taught in Maynooth College, a college supported, you are aware, in Ireland, chiefly, by government money ; a college which is supported for the exclusive instruction of priests of the Roman catholic church, and. for the support of which you who pay taxes all pay. In the books which were given in to th e comm i ss i oners o f i nqu i r y by the Rev. Dr: Crotty, president of the college, we find these instructions com municated to the young priests, who are themselves to go forth and communicate instruction to the Ronsish people. Upon the commandment, "Thou shalt not steal," there is this question in .Delahoe. ";How great must the quantity stolen be in order to , constitute the theft a mortal sin? Answer. The quantity cannot easily be determined, since nothing has been decided on the point either in Indira', divine, or human law. (Laugh ter.) Some are of opinion that the quantity necessary for the maintenance of an individual for one day." Here sin is estimated by quantity ! and it is plainly taught, if the quantity stolen be a small one, if from a rich man, something less than would take him to live on for a day in his usual way of life, it is not a sin to take it. The commandment of Go& is, "Thou shalt not steal," not "Thou shalt not steal much." But markwhat follows :—" Theologians are accustomed to , distin. guish in four ranks, those who live in splendour, those who are moderately rich, the third artificers, and the fourth the poor." It is there laid down, that "in order to constitute a theft, fifty or .sixtv pence must be taken from the first rank." So four shillings and twopence must be taken to constitute it a theft, provided he is a rich man. " Forty pence from the second class, twentypence from the third rank, and, with respect to the fourth rank, fourpence, or even one.pennv, if he have nothing else to live upon." ( Great laughter and cheering.) Now, these are extracts from the meral theology taught in the college of Maynooth. to the popish-priests who are to teach the populaces And these, according to our enlightened senator, are the friends of the people, and we, the "orthodox agitators" ate the ene mies of the people., One quotation more, for I must not, I per ceive, dwell too long on this subject, but I cannot refrain to bring you on the verge of a subject and then leave it, as almost too much, for the subject is polluted. It is the instructions which these young. priests have given to them in their college regarding the sacrament of penance, as it is called. Six direc tions are given ; the second is this—" Since the confessor acts the part both of the judge and a physician, he ought to become acquainted with the diseases and the offences of the penitent, in order that he may be able to apply suitable remedies, and im pose due penance; and lest a sin that is mortal should he ac counted venial, or the foul viper lurking in the deep recesses of the heart should not venture to put itself forth to view, he ought therefore sometimes to question the penitents on the subjects of the 6th Ptlilcommandment, where he suspects that they are not altogether pure, especially if they he rude,ignorant, bash ful, agitated. A prudent confessor will, as far as in his power, by kindness of language increase the confidence of his peni tents, will advance from more general statements to more par- ticular: from the less shameful to those which are more so; nor will he take his commencement from the external acts, but from the thoughts. Has not the Penitent revolved some im proper ones in his or her mind? Was this done advertently ? What kind of desire was it? Has he or -she felt unlawful pas sion ? But if the penitent shall declare that he, or she, has not felt them, the confessor ought usually to stop there, unless the penitent be very ignorant and dull. But if the penitent shall answer that he, or she, has had improper thoughts or irregular desires, the confessor shall ask whether any improper actions followed ? But if the penitent shall confess this, the confessor shall ask again, what were those actions.? If the penitent be' a gill, she should be asked whether she has adorned herself in order to please the- men? Whether for this purpose she:-has used paint, or stript her arms, shoulders, or neck? • Whether"—Now I dare not proceed. These are the instrudt given to the priests. Do you wonder then that Mr. M•Ghee—the originator of the association in this town—do you wonder that his challenge was not accepted. He challenged • the Roman catholic hierachy, that he would meet the priests of the Roman catholic church before twelve men chosen from the Roman catholic, body —any priests to come before these twelve men of their own persuasion and translate such passages as he' would point out in their own confessional. His challenge was not-accepted, and yet such is the stupifying effect of popery, such is-the manner in which it muffles and manacles the human mind and affections that, in the face of such a challenge, Irish noblemen and gentlemen, and English noblemen and gentle men, will allow their wives and daughters still .to enter the precincts of the unhallowed confession box. (Great cheering.) With regard to this confession I have another observation to make to which I will call your attention, for it connects itself with another reason why we agitate. I said that the Roman catholics had a divided allegiance, and that it was a stretch of my charity to suppose that the hon. member was ignorant of this. Now. I call your attention to the evidence of Dr. Doyle in the-House of Lords. He was asked, "If crimes of murder or treason are revealed in the confession, is the priest bound not to disclose it ?" His answer was, "He is bound not to disclose it in any case whatever." Question—" It has been sometimes proposed by those who have had apprehensions of danger from conceding the Roman Catholic claims, that Roman Catholics should be called upon when they take the oath of allegiance to' the King, at the same time to swear that they will make known to his Majesty any treason or treasonable designs which they may know to be meditated against him : from what you have now in formed the committee, you could not take such an oath ? Answer : The secrets communicated in confession are such as we are sup posed to become aaquainted with as ministers of the sacrament of penance, and in that capacity we do not consider ourselves bound by the oath of allegiance, which we take, to reveal se crets committed to us in that way; and as nur_rite of confession is known to the laws, and our doctrines with regard to it universally acknowledged to exist in our church, the state of his Majesty does not oblige us to reveal anything with which we might become acquainted in sacrame dal confession." So that although murder, and treason, although an attempt to take away the life of our gracious monarch abould be revealed to these men, and he take an oath of allegiance in certain terms, yet if it were revealed in the confessional that the life of their sovereign was to be attempted, they are not bound to keep their oath of allegiance and make it known ; their allegiance to their church, in penance, takes precedence to their allegiance to their King, and they consider themselves exempted from the oath by the previously undergone allegiance to the church. And what is their excuse ? 1 quote now from Dr. Murray, archbishop of Dublin He said, when this question was put to him, The act of 1793 recognised our religion; and the secrecy of the con fessional being a part of our religion, it cannot be supposed that the oath of allegiance infringes on that." According to their own showing, their religion being recognised by an act of the state, they swear subject to the mental reservation of their prior allegi ance; so that you have no guarantee from their oath of allegi ance. We are taunted with bigotry because they say, for a reli gious opinion, we would exclude men from civil privileges. We would do no such thing; but for divided allegiance; we would do so for a previous compact with a foreign potentate, or with an understanding which• goes to' nullify an oath to the. King of England. It is for this that we hold them unfit for the civil privileges of the protestant community. It is fit ting that this should be understood. We repeat that it is not for a •religions. opinion, but for a divided allegiance, and this you observe rests on the secresy of. the confes sional. Ihe resolution which I was intrusted with, and which it is my duty on this occasion to second, calls our atten tion- to , united efforts—efforts not made by Roman catholics only, but efforts made by others who are united with them to sever theiexisting connexion between church and state. The persons here - alluded to are nominally protestants; and I re gret to be obliged to add that some of them are found in the' ranks of those who profess to hold the doctrinal articles of the established church. I say, I regret this, because it should be our' hearts desire that all who hold its fundamental doctrines should-unite as one man against the common enemy (cheers). Anil if there. are any such in this room at , this moment, pro= testantalissenters professing to be orthodox christians, holding, as-the non-Conformist dissenters avow, the doctrinal articles of the church of England as their doctrine, I would affectionately expostulate - with such men and say, what are we of the esta blished etrurch, because of being established, so much worse than popery; so mach worse than socinianism, so much worse than those who deny the glorious revelation of God, deists, and unitarians of all classes—are we so much worse than they that you are brought to a delemma whether you shall join them to pull down the established church against us. Are we ao muds worse than they ? Is the truth of the bible which we hold injured in such a manner by the state supporting our religion that you find it a christian duty to join them against us instead_ of helping us to defend it against them ? • I would -have a pro tenant dissenter that believes in the- doctrine of. the trinity— that believes in the doctrine of the atonement, and professes to be a follower of Matthew Henry, or Dr. Dodridge, I would have him lay his hand on his heart and say, whether is worse, to betaken under the protection of the state and hold essential truth, or to be without that protection, and hold essential false hood-(hear, hear). And are we come to this? Is the envy of our brother against a paltry temporal advantage—is our bro ther's envy come to such a height that in order to pluck the envied advantage out of .his sight he will join with our enemies and his enemies—will he link arm in arm with the socinian on one side . and the papist on the other to pull us down ? lam grieved to be obliged to ask the question, but, sir, what is the fact? 'The . melancholly fact is that multitudes of those with whom we have delighted to make common cause against a com mon enemy—multitudes—l do assure you and this meeting, I speak-with most unaffected concern—that multitudes of the persons svhose cry for years at home anti abroad, in public and private, in their chapels and on the platforms of the British and Foreign Bible Society, was the bible, the whole bible, and no thing-but the' bible—l say that these persons have now - lent thelnielves to a party who are taking away the bible not only from the Roman catholics but from protestant children'in Ire land; and substituting something that is not only not the whole bible but is something more than the bible, constituted of dis cordant elements. Here is a motley board of Romish divines and. Church of Engiavtd, and church of Scotland divines, of English bishops and a lay man or two. Something is to be done with the bible that shall meet with the approbation of this b° 2l td. Whed a passage'eccurs that offends, the Romish arch bishop. will have a note appended.

JOHN CLARE, Esq„ rose to propose the next resolution. He said, it will ill become me to attempt to address this assembly at any length, but, as a protestant, I shall say a very few words. I have for more than fifty years, I trust, attended to the bible; I find it the only hope for me as a christian ; and I question it not at all, if the bible were more read that there would be a greater number of protestants. I have endeavOured to bring up my family under it, and I shall, as long as I live, endeavour to sup port it. I am directed to move the fourth resolution, "that while this meeting disclaims in the strongest manner every feel ing of personal hostility to Roman catholic's, it feels it a duty of the highest importance to resist, by all proper means, the er roneous doctrines of their church, which it considers destructive of real religious liberty, and dangerous to the best interests of MILITARY DISCIPLINE. The soldier in the ranks is a mere machine; and he is the more efficient for being so: the less he is able to cri ticise what he sees in a campaign the better, because what actually comes under his own knowledge can be only a trifling part of a whole; and from that part he cannot possibly judge, with any accuracy, of the several operationsperhaps seemingly at variance with each other—which his general finds it necessary to combine to work out success. The mercurial Frenchman, who is more theoretically a tactician than the Englishman, and,• from his national character, more given to criticising the plans of a campaign, is a good man in' advancenone better; but when his cause appears to faille desponds: lie has sufficient military knowledge to discover readily enough when he is worsted ; and the cry of " Sauve qui pent.'' is a Gallicism too well understood throughout Europe to need translating into any'continental langu age. In a retreat he is the woast soldier That I know of —always excepting the Spaniards and "braves Belges," . , who are notoriously the greatest possible cowards under every change of circumstances ;- while the-British, who,, even so far-back as the time of. Our blbff Henry VIII:,' :had a character - for being slow to find out that thely were beaten, ‘are unquestionably the bestidthe world. And this arises, as much from. their ignorance,: which makes: them dependent upon - their officers' judgment, as from: their own solid, 'unflinching hardihood. ' Bet it is totally' different with the 'man who has to put this machine in motion, and regulate its Stops.; .- The mightier its pow ers, the nicer should be his touch ; and no.pains should be spared to make him master of - his craft. Besides,.the wish - to employ military officers - in civil situations is . gaining ground, - as they are universally admitted to he men in whose perfect. integrity and high tone of honour the most implicit confidence may be placed; which is an additional reason•for forcing an exercise of their talents,. at an age . when-those talents are most susceptible of cal ture. There are feW systems of any kind I think worth borrowing from our Gaelic neighbours;particularly ap pertaining unto military matters; because what may be all very applicable to Jack Ft enchman, ten to one, does not suit the notions uf•John • Bull ; but here his plan - is better than ours.' I find that. when Marshal Nev" com manded the camp at Montreuil-sur-Mer, in 1804, seeing the:necessity of instructing „the officers under his com mand, he had a spacious room constructed in the rear of each regiment,_ which. he , 'designated the officers' council room. Herelhe officers'efthe respective corps, from the colonel to the yOutigest.stibalterti, were obliged to meet and study their profession together. Each - officer was called upon to give an explanation of every manoeuvre in which he had- taken a share of in battle, discuss' its utility, advantages, &c.

CITY OF DUBLIN STEAM-PACKET COMPANY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. • Siu,—Having seen. an advertisement in a Liverpool paper, purporting to be for the establishment of a new steam company, in which it, is alledged, that that company has been suggested in consequence of " numerous complaints of the irregular rates of freight, and uncertain and inefficient accommodation by•ex- isting conveyances , and the frequent inconvenience and an noyance toimporters and exporters of goods, cattle, &c," I crave, sir, to give the most unqualified contradiction to such as sertions, and which it would appear are made to favour the ob jects of a few speculators. No such complaints have •been made, but, on the contrary, I have received the strongest and most gratifying assurances of satisfaction on the part of the great body ,of cattle exporters, and importers, •who have •ex pressed their cOnviction that the company afford every practi cable accommodation and convenience to shippers; and that, as far as can be done, they secure certainty of conveyance, and efficiency of steam accommodation, and .1 can only assure the public that such continues to be the determination of the com pany. With respect to the assertion of irregular rates of freight, .I need only say, that no one connected with the establishment has any interest whatever in the rate of freight; and that•the principle of the company is to make but a moderate • 'dividend, and impartially to divide the surplus in a manner which has al ready given great satisfaction to shippers. I do not assert that no complaints have ever been made, but I am authorised to say, that, considering 'the •gteat objects•of the establiitunent, and the extent of its business; fewer grounds of. complaint have been afforded that could be -supposed liy those not 'acquainted with the difficulties and risks of steam navigation. . eat) only say that the company has' ever been actuated'hy the moatJiberal principles towards all' classes of Shippers, and th e ir ,are determined to leave no reasonable grounds of com plaint on the part of any individual. . „ SAM.

AMUSING ANECDOTE From the Ninfolk (American) Beacon, A few years ago, towards the dusk of evening, a stranger in a travelling sulky was leisurely pursuing his way towards a little tavern, situated near the foot of a mountain, in' one of the western states. A-little in advance of him, a negro, returning from plough, was singing the favourite Ethiopian melody of " Gwien down to shin-bone alley, Long time ago." The stranger' hailed him with " Hallo l—uncle l —you snow-ball!", "Sah ?" ,said blackey, holding Up hii horses. "Is that the half-way house ahead, yonder ?" No, sah, dat Massa Billy Lemon's Otel I" "Hotel, eh-?—Billy Lemon ?" "Yes, sah,---you know Ma's Billy? ho used to lib atde mouf o' Cedar crick—he done move now do—keeps. monsous nice tavun pow, I tell you." " Indeed !"

"Tankee; ma:ssa, tankee Bah; Quach tuy name." " Quash, eh ?" " Yes, sah, at you sarvice. Ooh," grunted the delighted African, " dis is nice; he better an green riber ; tankee sah, tankee." " Well, Quash, what kind of a gentleman is Mi. Lemon."

" Afraid of ghosts, eh ?" said the traveller musing. " Well, go ahead Mr. Quash; as its getting late, I'll tarty with this Mr. Lemon to night." "Yes, sah; gee up hoa! go long lively ;" and setting off at a brisktrot, followed by the traveller; the musical Quash again boke out in " Gwien down to shin-bone alley-" . . _ The,hurthen " Ding time ago" was taken up by some one ,apparently in an adjacent coriv.field, which occasioned Quash to prick up his ears with some surprise; he continued however, with . . , .. • "Dab I Meet Olelolniny Glidden" ` And the same voice again responded from - the field " Long time age - !""' , " ' • ?` Who dat ?" said the astonish6d negro, checking suddenly his horses and looking round on every side fur the cause of his . surprise. " Oh, never mind; drive .ahead, snow-ball, it's some of your master's spirits, I suppose." Quail, in a very thoughtful Mood, led the 'way to the• `tavern without uttering anotherwotrd. .Haltingi befora•the. door, the• stranger was very soon waited upon by the obliging Mr. Lemon, a bustling talkative gentleman,; who greeted his • customer with , . : : - • • • ' - • : i: , " ' Light, sir, light,- r yiere, John !,Quash!—never mind your Umbrella, sir,—liere, Quash, fake off that 'rug —give me your whip ; sir—take off'that 0-nllk—walk in, sir—John, take out that chair box —come, sir—and carry - s horse to the stable—do you prefer him to stand on a dirt fib r?

We beg particular attention to a most important document. It is a petition presented to the House of Commons from the citizens .of Belfast on the subject of municipal reform—and signed (as we are assured by the honourable member) in the space of an hour or two by no less than NINETY-SEVEN Thou s AND out of the Fifty-three Thousand, Two Hundred and Eighty seven Inhabitants which this flourishing city contains, according to the last census of the population. This is prodigious. Sharman Crawford is a most prolific political economist. The " Parturient Patriot" has not been fallow since the year '3O. Let us next glance at the despatch of our northern. penman: "In an hour or two" said Sharman. We will grant him two hours full, and allow hiik half-a-minute for each signature. By the ordinary Post-office time it would take 97,000 persons, at the rate aforegoing, four .hundred and four' hours and a quarter, or (working night and day) seventeen days,.wanting two hours and three-quarters, to affix their marks, or whatever cypher. they might choose, to the paper document; but by one of those miracles of radicalism and march.of-intellect, which surpass all previous calculations, we find the same task executed in two hundred and twenty-four half minutes, and the incessant labour of nearly three weeks condensed into the limited space of two hours..—Dablin Mail. .

The Committee upon this bill sit for the examination of the wit nesses one day previous to the recess. it met again upon Wednesday theist June, when the examination of evidence in support of the bill was continued, and has been sitting .every day since.. This bill'appears to be strettuonsly opposed by the land Owners on the line, and the Etlinbiligh and.Glasgnw Railway Company. Messrs. Harrison and Wood are Council fur the former,, and Messrs. Andrews ! and Sandford for the latter, • •'• '" • • " " • T,lie firstswituess examined was one of the agents for the bill, who was called to prove the existing communication bthreen Glasgow and • )Sterling and Edinburgh, Sic. • Upon cross-examination this gentleman was obliged to admit, that, at the desire of the Union Canal,;a clause had heen inserted in the ibill, in terms of an agreement !between the promoters of bill and the proprietors of the Union Canal, by which tbe;ltailway Company were prohibited from extend- , , ing the railway aeroaa.the Union Canal.. Thus, so far as the Junction ;Railway Company is concerned, the Union Canal, in the immediate neighbourhood of •Ealltirk, is to be the boundary of tha communica tjon by railway between the metropolis of Scotland and the great com macial emporium of the.west. But the nature of the present application was sufficiently apparent, so far as oneef the parties was concerned, when the second witness being examined stated,: at the - close of his, examination, that in the evidence given by him as to the advantageous nature of the railway, " he was only lookingto the•interest of the United Canal.. l ' The manner in which the principal witness as to traffic attempted ,to ;create. a revenue was rather unique. It seems that coals and-mine , • rats are found 'at either end of the line at New Monkland, towards the - junction of the projected railway with the Garnkirk ; and at the east enfl Attar Ihnternaiuus.)in the Umon,Canal.• „Mr. , Geddes accordingly sfikgestett, that an thin vierk Witlitlieir furnaces would no" doubt be erecteCniidway between the two ;termini; which would then have 'to bring in coals and ironstone from either one end of the railway or the . other ; •and the matevials;thus brought mustennsequeritly pay a large sum of dues to the Company, while, op the other hand, the iron when • produced-would nisi) hiv4 to-travel an equally long journey-npon the railway. bqfore .it .would brought to- market.- The revenue. to be derived from this suppo se d i ron wor k was reekeied as artniunting to nenrlTX.7 o 9 o l 3 k)annunt I. l •It did not seem to strike the witness, that . with the great Caron Foundry at ene end of the line, and the Dundy van, Calder, and other Iron -w02149 at •the other, all situated- in 'the centre of a great minetaLcountry, with little expense of carriage, there was not ranch probability of any new company being- esta blished, og, if it were, existinoip.a. state of solvency for a-single-year, This mode of - making up a revenuue afforded much auSeinent. Most of the other witnesses In'ought forward were more or less con nected with the Garnkirk Railway Company ; and their„Superin tendent proved, that after having borrowed everrfarthing they were allowed to borrow by act of parliament, not one penny of dividend had yet been divided among the shareholders; • We regret extremely that this should hate been the case, and that' the proprietors of this Railway should have suffered so greatly from the speculations) But at the same time we must :protest' against the the interests of two such important communities as those of Edin burgh and Glasgow being sacrificed to or injured- by, the desire of increasing the revenues of the Canal and Garnkirk Railway. It is quite evident, even now, and it is understood that the design will be made even more apparent before the discussion in the Committee is at an end, that these two Companies are the originators of the Junction bill, far. the purpose of preventing a thorough- -line of Railway com munication being establised between Glasgow and Edinburgh. Now we have all •along felt convinced, that the formation of a line of Railway between Glasgow and Edinburgh will be of incalculable be nefit to these cities, and therefore we trust that nothing will be per mitted to interfere with so important a measure. .
