Their plan was, for one of the number to go into the shop and purchase a roll or some thing of that sort, whilst the others made away with the butter ; and they had succeeded so well that Mr. Grant was not aware of his loss till made acquainted with it by a person who had witnessed their proceedings and took them into custody. The mother of two of the youngsters appeared, and stated that she " could do no good with them," and requested the magistrates to deal summarily with them, as they were attempting to lead a young brother into the same bad practices. The one who appeared to be ringleader was named Evers, and being an old offender he was sentenced to three months' imprison ment, while the others were ordered to be confined for three days and well whipped.

Taylor, M.A., on " The sub ject of Romish Miracles ;" the Rev. Thomas Robinson in the chair. The meeting was opened by prayer; and the Chairman, after a few remarks on the nature and objects of the institution, called upon Mr. Taylor to deliver the lecture for which he was announced. Owing to the crowded state of our columns, we have only space for the following outline. The rev. lecturer first treated of miracles in general, and showed, from the analogy of the Mosaic and Christian dispensations, at what epoch they were performed ; then was noticed their redemptive character, viz. as effecting, either in whole or in part, deliverance from the physical and moral consequences of sin, and as pledges of the ulti mate and complete redemption of God's people, and the material world, from the dominion and oppression of the Devil. Some of the criteria of miracles, as mentioned by Butler and Paley, were then touched upon. Secondly, of Romish Miracles especially, specimens of which were read from the " Breviary," and " Glories of Mary." These, and in fact all the miracles of the Romish Church, were classed underthe following heads:-1. Impostures. 2. The effects of a distempered imagination, and the illusion of the senses. -3. The result of exaggeration, or a simple credulity. 4. Real delusions of the Devil. 5. Possibly some real miracles wrought by diabolical agency. That many of these may be real delusions of Satan must be admitted by those who acknowledge the demonaltry of the Romish Church, as is evident from-1. An investiga tion of the demon-worship of the Pagan world, viz., Acts xvi., 16-18. 2. From the nature of Satan's influence, as seen in the great apostasy under the Jewish dispensation, in the reigns of Jeroboam, Ahab, &c., 1 Kings, xxii. and Ez. xiv. 9. 3. From the express prediction concerning the Papal apostasy, 2 Thess. ii. 9.11. The influence of the Devil, as shown in the Book of Job ; our Lord's pre diction of teachers who shouid show great signs and wonders, Matthew xxiv., to support the kingdom of lies, were next referred to ; and Gerhaid, Chrysostom, and Augustine quoted, as confirming the lecturer's views. Other authorities mentioned were, "The Homily on the Peril of Idolatry," part iii. ; " Newton on. the Prophe cies," and " French on the Miracles." The lecturer was listened to throughout with the greatest attention; and, after a vote of thanks to the lecturer and chairman, the meeting s-parated.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) (From the 3rd edition of the Times.) PARIS, MrNDAY, 9 30, A.M The Presidtnt has addressed a proclamation to the Nation, in wh ch he says that the first part of his task is accomplished, and that society has been saved. The impending appeal to the Nation will terminate the struggle of parties. If he does riot possess the confidence of the people, a vote to the contrary will be sufficient, without shedding blood. So long as the Nation shall not have token, he will do his best to neutralise factious attempts. _ _ It was insanity in the insurgents tp fight against an army united and disciplined, and animated by military honour and patriotism. The calm attitude of Paris, the approbation of the inhabi tants against the emeute, are witnesses enough to prove in fa vour of whom the capital pronounces. On this occasion an anarchy has met repulses in those places where insurrection formerly found moat ready recruits. The workmen took no part with the anarchists. In conclusion, the President declares that his sole ambition _....._ .., ensure the peace and prosperity of France ; and that the coun try will soon accomplish in tranquillity that act from which a new era ought to arise for the Republic.

It will be remembered by our readers that, in October, be Ddlce of Northumberland, with a patriotism of emulation, offered a premium of 100 guineas for the most approved model of a boat to preserve life in cases of shipwreck, contiguous to our coast ; and also appointed a committee of gentlemen, well versed in nau tical matters, to decide on the relative merits of such models as should be The difficulties to be overcome were po. 1850, t out, which comprised ,tie facts that existing - boats were too heavy for transportation quickly along the shore ; that they did not free themselves from water with sufficient rapidity. and that they had not the power of self-righting. After due examination, the prize was awarded to Mr. James Beeching, of Great Yarmouth, who, to test the principle in the righting, sailing, and rowing of these boats, has this week honoured Liverpool with a visit. Yesterday, a trial, preparatory to the public one arranged for to-day, took place off the Waterloo-pier. A large number of gentlemen were present—amongst them Lord Cholmon deley, Mr. M`Lean, Secretary of the Mariners' Shipwreck and Humane Society, Lieut. Lord, Captain Gillam, and many other gentlemen versed in such subjects. The craft is 28 feet long, and is in form not unlike a whale-boat, being slightly rounded in the floor, and plump in the side. %e is built throughout of oak, and strengthened in every Her beam is about seven feet, which gives • - ...nrk fenders, air compartments, and direction She is other peculiarities, a most effective buoyancy. ... built to pull ten oars, double banked, with pins and grum metts, and is rigged as a one-masted lugger, under which sail she will no doubt lay close to the wind. As soon as the boat was brought out, a parbuckle being attached from the crane, she at once displayed her advantages. She ballasted herself in the same element in which she floats in a space of -°conds, and relieved herself of water in about 15 'rile experiment was again repeated, and, by ne crane, she was again turned keel upwards, righted momentarily. The crew of the Liver al life boat then manned the oars, and tested her row ag qualities. She was afterwards put under canvas, when she made, close hauled, splendid head way.
