The tele port contains the latest news on the subject, liowing from the New Orleans Picayune appears to have some truth in it :—On the 23rd instant. Colonel Crittenden and 114 men were left at Bahia Honda by Lopez, in charge of the baggeg, while Lopez himself adanced to Los Pozas. On - the next day 700 Spaniards landed from the Pizarro, and cut off Crittenden from his companions. Col. Crittenden made one attempt to rejoin his comrades, but was repulsed. The Spaniards afterwards made a charge, and completely route:! Crittenden's little party, who spent two days and nights in the chapparels, without any sustenance. Fifty of them afterwards made their way to the seashore, where they found some boats, in which they embarked. They spent the night on the ocean, and the next day were taken prisoners by the Ha banero, as detailed in previous reports. There are still sixty-four of this party missing. Forty of them are known to have been shot in a small farm-house, and a Spanish lieutenant reports that, on the 15th, he came upon twenty of them guarding an equal number of their wounded com rades, all of whom were massacred. It was reported, also, on Spanish authority, that the remaining twenty-four were afterwards slaughtered." The American papers publish letters from some of the men shot by order of the authorities at Havana. They _contain affectionate and pathetic appeals to the friends of the survivors, being all written about an hour before the unfortunate men were shot. They complain of having been deceived and de- serted by Lopez, whom one of them calls " the scoun drel," and asserttheir determination " to die like soldiers." Toronto advices to the 20th state that at noon on that day his Excellency the Governor-General prorogued the provincial parliament. The royal speech refers to the sa tisfactory state of the revenue, mentions the grants for im proving the St. Lawrence navigation, the reduction of the emigrant-tax, &c. He stated that the railway bill is cal- culated to advance the public prosperity, and declares it to be the intention of the government to conform to the )f the people. Among the acts which received the t were the following :—To repeal Tonnage and es; to introduce the Decimal System of Cur rency; to appropriate 16,000,000 dollars to the Grand Trunk Railway; and to establish Normal Schools in Lower Canada. Six bills were reserved for the Queen's approval, three of which relate to churches and rectories, two to the reduction of judicial and other salaries, and one to incorporate the Fort Erie and Buffalo Suspension Bridge Company. _ _ Light Du .rom C: when ti r coolies bad arrived at Demerara, direct The weather at Demerara was excellent bance - took place at Vera Cruz on the 21st ult., itizens rose to oppose the collection of taxes.

The advices regarding the sugar crops are highly favoura ble, with the exception of Demerara. The whole of the crops of the Brit. W. Indies have been shipped, and the result shows a large increase on last year. Jamaica had been visited with fine rains, but la bour was much wanted to take advantage of it. Cholera Was still prevalent. HURRICANE AT ST. THOMAS.—OR the 18th of August the island of St. Thomas experienced the tail of a hurri cane. It commenced at daylight, and from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. blew with terrible fury, veering from N.E. to S.E. by E., and doing great damage to the wharf under the town. One schooner was capsized at her anchors, two or three vessels went on shore, and others drove with anchors down. The strength of the hurricane passed to the south ward of St. Thomas. The next mail will probably bring disastrous accounts. THE BRAZILS, I throughout the locality, of course, intense. Clerks and servants were run ning away from their employments. The landowners and pasture proprietors were being deserted by their shep. herds. and in the greatest anxiety about the preservation of their flocks.

Hostilities between the Brazils and Buenos Ayres were to commence on the 14th ult. Urcpaiza had marched into the Banda Oriental, with 8,000 troops ; and Count Caxias, with a Brazilian force of ]5,000 men, had either formed, or was on the point of forming, a junction with Urouiza. The declared object of this junction is the expulsion of Oribe from the presidency of the invaded state; and to accomplish that, Admiral Grenfell is directed to co-operate with the Bra zilian naval force already in the Plate, and under his command, with the military operations of the army on land. Oribe, though suffering from severe indisposition, had placed himself at the head of the Uruguay soldiery, said not to exceed 5,000 men. His principal hope is, therefore, on such assistance as Rosas may be able to send him ; and any help from Buenos Ayres it will be Admiral Grenfell's duty to intercept and prevent. Roses had, it is moreover reported, some difficulty in procuring any competent officer to undertake the command of his auxiliary force. The markets at Pernambuco and Bahia were very dull. Upwards of 9,000 persons have fallen victims to cholera in the Grand Canary Island, but the disease was gradually disappearing. The principal theatre at Rio was burnt down on the Bth tilt. HORRIBLE AFFAlR.—During the last few days a report had beon in circulation in our vicinity to the following effect :—lt is stated that on Friday last, as three children were returning to their home from school, near Liberty, in Amite county, they were overtaken by a pack of dogs, in pursuit of runaway negroes. The dogs fell upon them, and before assistance could be rendered, killed and nearly devoured every one of them. The father of the children, hearing their screams and the barking of the dogs, ran out with his gun, and succeeded in killing two of them. At this time the owner of the dogs rode up, and threatened tores, were said to I to rather if he shot any more of his dogs. The ler reloaded his gun, and deliberately shot e dogs through the heart, after which he gare himself up, was tried, and discharged. We hare not heard the names of any of the parties.— Wilkinson (La.) TERRIBLE CALAMITY IN CANADA.—A party bad been formed for a pic-nic on Thursday, and at nine o'clock of that day assembled on board the new yacht Jeanette, in number 34, of whom 14 were ladies. The Jeanette was of 21 tons measurement. The day was not so favourable as was desired. The wind had been blowing fresh with squalls, and the Jeanette bad proceeded but a short distance, when she was struck by one of these, and laid over so as to tie in a considerable Aity of - "le WV.

THE CAFFRE WAR.—The state of affairs on the fron tier are far from satisfactory. Sir Harry Smith appears to have made no movement of consequence ; while the Cafl'res and Hottentots are spreading themselves through the eastern provinces, and penetrating settlements pre viously considered secure from danger. Just previous to the der irture of last steamer ' news reached the Cape of k upon some English, between Fort Beaufort and 's Town, when five mete killed by the rebel Hot _ trols were sent out immediately, but t success is not known. It appears that, while Strong pa frontier, the Caffi and pillaging t •es and Hottentots - have been invading interior. A letter from the Cape, dated " From what I can learn, Maki'. the Ist Auust, says— are within five miles of Uitenhage ; and the war, con sequently, in the heart of the colony." About the 20th of July, on the return of the patrol under Colonel Mit chell from Kieskamma, they were unsuccessfully attacked by Seyolo, who stated that as he had lost his country and cattle he did not desire peace. The news from Kreli is pacific, and he professes to have discovered his error. Sandilli is said to be dejected, and to be contemplating removal beyond the Kye. Pato continues attached to British interests. No further supply of troops had reached the Cape ; but the government despatches were sent to the frontier by her Majesty's steamer Hermes, which was provided with sufficient fuel to go on to the Mauritius, where there are spare troops. SINGULAR INCIIPINT.—M. Thiers is recruiting himself after the fatigues of the session at the watering places of the Pyrenees. On .a recent occasion he was very nearly falling a victim to the ardour of his scientific pursuits. It appears that M. Thiers' favourite dress in his character of mountaineer, consists of an entire suit of nankeen—blouse, trousers, jacket, and even cap are all yellow. He was making a reconnoissance on the edge of one of the preci pices of the Pyrenees, when he heard suddenly the report of a rifle, accompanied try a certain uncomfortable hissing sound just above his head, which speedily brought the historian of a hundred battles into a very humiliating positing—a plat centre on the ground. He concluded that he was about to be made a prisoner by the contra bandistas, and in mortal agony crouched amongst the bush wood. Turning out of his hiding-place, however, he saw presently approach a band of sportsmen, who had not very unnaturally, when one considers the figure of the man and the nankeen, mistaken the ex-minister fora chamois. CURIOUS REVELATION.—A work has been circulating in the French circles at Vienna for some time past which has caused no little sensation. It is a new edition of a work published in Paris in 1829, from the pen of the Baroness Newborough, mother of Lord Newborough. The Baroness declares herself to be a Princess of the house of Orleans ; and Louis Philippe, the son of an Italian at tendant in the prison, to have been substituted imme diately after her birth, to obtain the desired object of a male heir to the Orleans branch. The revelations in question are contained in every circumstantial letters of this same attendant of the prisons, Lorenzo Chiappini, and in deathbed confessions of other individuals taken upon oath. The raising of Lady Newborough to the peerage. and the fact of the previously needy Chiappini having left considerable property at his death, give weight to the statements; but most of all, the extraordinarily striking resemblance of Lady Newborough and her sons to the very marked features that charactised the Boutin n family. Louis Philippe was unlike them in build, in features, and in the decided energy of his character (till within the last few years of his life). In France there have long been many persons who believed and repeated this story ; and when asked what Louis Philippa himself said to it, they always asserted it to be the rock on which he built his strength. " Should there be another revolu tion on Republican principles, he will fall back upon his real origin, enfant die peuple, and tell the Republic he is their man ; no aristocrat, but Louis Philippe, the child of the people." IRELAND. Mr. Morgan John O'ContTell, M.P. for Kerry, is about to enter himself at the English bar. About £20,000 is said - to have been received by impo verished people in the Ballinasloe district from friends in America. The cattle e ported from Cork this year is less than the 850 by 6368 cows, 13,673 sheep, 2015 pies, barrels, and butter by 29,352 firkins Mr. O'Flaberty, M.P., with Mr., Scully, M.P., Mr. Keogh, M.P., Mrs. Keogh, and others, went on a boat ing excursion on Saturday from Knockbane, and had a very narrow escape from being drowned. FATAL ACCIDENT.—A young gentleman named George Mayberry was drowned in the Cork river on 'Wednesday while boating. The boat in which he was sailing was struck by the steamer Prince Arthur, and sunk. Miss Shell, sister of the late Right Hon. Richard Lalor Sheil. died suddenly at Waterford on the 6th inst., after an illness of but two hours ; so that, like that of her dis tinguished brother, the death of Miss Sheil was quite sudden and unexpected. Father John Ryan, of Cashel, has addressed a letter to the editor of the Tipperary Vindicator, suggesting that a public dinner should be given in Cashel to the members for Tipperary, who fought against and defeated " that abortion of humanity, little Lord John Russell." A very successful experiment of sowing the eyes of the potatoes, and also the potato itself deprived of the eyes, as they are termed, has been made by the Very Rev. the Dean of Kilmacduagh, in his garden at Gort Deanery House, and which has .produced a very good crop. THE CENSUS IN IRELAND.—A corrected parliamentary paper of the census in Ireland has just been printed. The decrease is 20 per cent. between 1841 and 1851. In 1841 the total number of persons was 8,175,124, and on the 31st of March last 6,515,794, being a decrease of 1,659,330, or 20 per cent. _ _ A correspondent informs us that an English gentleman who had lodged £62,000 with his agents for the purpose of purchasing property in Ireland under the Encumbered Estates Court has withdrawn that sum and declined to invest it thus, on account of Mr. White's murder.— Leinster Express. _ MANUFACTURE OF PAPER.—The manufacture of paper has greatly increased in Ireland. having risen from 2,374,4031 b. in the whole of the year 1834, to 3,821,5621 b. in the first half of 1851. In 1837 the quantity was 3,248,1821 b. ; in 1842 it was 4,053,4291 b. ; in 1845, 5,662,1041 b. ; and in 1849, 6,272,5631 b. Lord Riverston died at his residence, Flower-hill, county Galway, on Saturday week. This peerage was granted by James 11. when he was fighting in Ireland for his crown, but was not acknowledged by the English Government. Lord Riverston was heir presumptive to the Earldom of Westmeath ; he leaves two sons. SOMETHING LIKE A RATE.—Oar correspondent informs us that a rate of ss. 6d. in the pound has been levied by the Guardians of the Cashel Union, making within the past 11 months the enormous sum of 12s. 2d. upon the citizens of Cashel. Public feeling is said to be much excited, as a rate of 3s. 6d. would it is expected cover the expenses of the ensuing 25 weeks.—Tipperary Free Press. MINING OPERATIONS.—The old lead mines near Cas tlemain, that have lain unworked for nearly a quarter of a century, have just been leased we understand to an English firm by the proprietor, Sir William D. Godfrey, Bart. Mining operations are to be commenced immediately, and some preliminary earthwork cuttings have already been executed.—Kerry Post. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC MOVEMENT.—The new agita tion wilt soon be resumed. It is announced that to-mor row (Wednesday), the 17th instant, the rules for the re gulation of the Roman Catholic Defence Association will be submitted at a meeting of the committee, at which se veral of the bishops are to attend ; and that, in a few days after, the first public meeting of the Association will take place, for the formal adoption of the rules, and the ar rangement of the future proceedings of the society. The effects of an abundant harvest are already apparent in the Irish markets, which are becoming well supplied from the produce of their own soil, for the first time since the commencement of the famine; and it is remarked that the new grain is so good in quality that it absorbs the demand, in preference to foreign. Some old oats still remain, and command a very high price. Indeed, that description of grain has continued at a remunerative rate all through. Long before the harvest the home stocks had become so exhausted that scarcely any sup plies had appeared in the markets. RUMOURED APPOINTMENTS AT THE BAR.—It is ru moured with much confidence that Mr. Justice Perrin is about to retire, upon a promise of promotion for two of his sons in their respective professions. The vacant jus ticeship of the Queen's Bench is to be filled by the eleva tion thereto of Mr. Attorney-General Hatchell; and the Attorney-Generalship thus vacated is to be assumed by the Right Hon. Richard Wilson Greene, Q.C. • Mr. Hughes continuing to hold his present office of Solicitor- General. These arrangements have been repeated and commented upon among the bar, and are very generally looked upon as settled. The appointment of Mr. Greene over Mr. Hughes's head is accepted as an ill omen for the Popish Bishops, being accounted for upon a supposition of a meditated prosecution under the new Whig statute. — Dublin Herald. THE ISLAND OF ACHILL.—On Thursday week Sir John M'Neill, accompanied by the Hon. Capt. Jocelyn, and Mr. Samuel Holme and Mr. William M'Cormick, of Liverpool, two gentlemen who have recently purchased a large tract of land at Achill, arrived at Castlebar on their way to that colony. The party were subsequently joined at Achill by the Earl of Roden, who has been making the tour of Connemara. On Friday evening the colony was illuminated to welcome the visitors. A large bonfire was lighted at the foot of Slievemore, flags were displayed, and the people manifested every symptom of joy. Satur day was kept as a holiday, and a large concourse of people from all parts of the island assembled at the colony, where they were addressed at great length, and with much effect, by Mr. Holme, the Earl of Roden, and the Rev. Edward Nangle. The boys belonging to the training school, about 80 in number, were then examined by the Rev. Mr. Lowe, and their scriptural as well as general know ledge excited the greatest surprise. The orphan-house, hospital, and the infant and other schools were next vi sited, and the printing-office did not escape attention. A hymn was sung by the whole assembly, and the effect of so many voices in the open air, under the lofty moun tain ridge, was peculiar and striking. It was somewhat remarkable that Di. M'Hale, with his archdeacon and a number of priest , went to Achill at the same time. ....A it may serve to show the great change which has taken oo h _ .•••./ 0,1-ANJ place in that island when we state that he went from place to place unattended and almost unnoticed. We are informed that Lord Roden was much struck by the intel ligence and attainments of the children throughout the The church at the colony was crowded on Sun day, and the hotel is full of visitors, principally English. UNIVERSITY or DUBLIN.—The first meeting of the commission for inquiring into the state, discipline, studies, and revenues of the University of Dublin, was held on Thursday at the Palace, Stephen's-green, the Archbishop 'of Dublin, the Lard Chancellor, and Dr. Longfield were present. The other commissioners are the Earl of Rosse, the Bishop of Cork, and Joshua Cooper, Esq. The com missioners appointed Professor Hancock secretary to the commission, and after transacting some other business adjourned till the 23d instant. ATROCIOUS CONSPIRACY.—A conspiracy of an atrocious nature, in connexion with the killing of cattle, has just been brought to light. At the petty sessions of Murree on Tuesday, ten men, four of whom bore the name of Carey, were charged with killing and houghing cattle on the lands of a farmer named Murphy. It appeared that the Carey family had been ejected by the agent of Lord Cloncurry, and that the cattle killed and houghed had been put upon the lands to graze. Two witnesses proved that the parties had entered into a conspiracy to put to death all beasts sent upon the farm, and that brutal means had been resorted to to accomplish the fiendish deed by driving red-hot irons through their intestines ! The prisoners were fully committed to the county gaol for trial at next assizes. COSTUME?. OF THE ARMY.-It is reported in military circles in Dublin that the costume of the heavy cavalry will undergo a complete revision on the next issue of clothing. The hideous tailless jacket at present worn is to give place to a short frockcoat, loosely made about the sleeves, and with no other ornament than a row of buttons up the centre. The brass shoulder scales are to be abolished, as their pressure on the sword-arm was proved to be almost insupportable, ow;ng to the want of fiexibili.v. The new helmet is to be brass, but it is to be made to fit the head closely, according to an improved pattern modelled after the fashion of the past century. The black horsehair plume is to be discontinued, as cumbersome and useless; and it is believed that the cloth overalls will give way to leathers and jackboots the same as the Life Guards. THE POTATO CROP.—The Belfast papers give accounts of the rapid spread of the potato blight in several districts of the northern provinces. At Lurgan, in the county of Armagh, the disease was spreading rapidly, and " it is anticipated that the crop will be as much injured as in the memorable year 1846." In and about Belfast every thing indicates an increasing decay of the crop. In places where no traces could be previously discovered, the dis ease is now plainly discernible; and in the best samples brought to market diseased tubers are far from being scarce. The yield is, however, abundant, and the farmers can afford to lose a considerable quantity. From Porta down complaints of failure are general, but the present fine weather, it is hoped,' will tend to check the ravages of the pestilence. Advices from Louth state that the reports, day after day, are becoming more alarming. In districts where the crop was perfectly sound on the first appearance of the blight this season " there are now the most cheerless prospects." PROTESTANTISM IN IRELAND.—At a sitting of the Evangelical Alliance, in London, a few days ago, the Rev. Dr. Urwick, of Dublin, read an elaborate paper on the state of religion in Ireland, in which we find the following statistics : " There were in Ireland the following Roman Catholic priests : Prelates and arch prelates 28, parish priests 989, curates 1,430, other ecclesiastics 322—total 2,769; that was one Roman Catholic priest to every 1,765 Roman Catholics. With regard to the Episcopal Church in Ireland, there were 2,261 clergymen, supported by what is called "church property." (Hear.) There were 662 Presbyterian, and 238 Methodist ministers. The total number of Protestant ministers, exclusive of Unitarians, was 3,224. Thus it would be seen that the Protestant ministers outnumbered the Catholic priests by 455. (Cheers.) With reference to secessions from Catholicism, his Grace the Bishop of Tuam had stated that during the past year no fewer than 10,000 persons had forsaken the Roman Catholic communion in his diocese alone. Dr. Urwick also stated that there was no visible manifestation of Puseyism in the Established Church of Ireland." FRUITS OF FREE TRADE.—Tn the Newry Telegraph we find the following :—" We have now under our eye, at our own doors, practical evidence of convincing f that pol kind, of the mischievous ettee— _dated free trade. There are at present in the Newry five foreign vessels discharging cargoes of indian corn. One comes from Prussia, another is a Greek, and the remain ing three are Italian. The total amount of their cargo is 7000 quarters of grain, which would cost, at the current market prices, £B4OO ; and this stun, of course, is ab- stracted from the c rich the inhabitant consideration con❑ )es to en- , re is anoti vessels led ; even (rest are provisioned in foreign ports, and while here, the sai lors lay out not one penny that can bread or butchers' meat t -in fact, th are unaccusto met 3 anything of the kind money leaves us, not only to augment the wealth of foreign merchants and agriculturists, but also to stimulate foreign shipbuilding, and for the support of foreign sea men, and for the aggrandizement of foreign and antago nistic powers. If this £BOOO or £9OOO, instead of being sent out of the country, had been circulated at home among the suffering farmers, the labourers would have derived the advantage by receiving steady employment at good wages, and shopkeepers would also have benefited by an enlarged sale of their goods. These simple facts ought to go far to convince any one of his error, who still labours under the delusion that the best way to benefit his native country is to discourage its producers and to encourage the foreign producer." THE EMIGRATION MANIA.—The tide of emigration is still flowing on, wide, deep, and as strong as ever. Week after week, and day after day, the " fatal drain" is going on. Such is the announcement of the last number of the Cork Examiner, and the writer, with the view of pointing out the painful consequences to all classes of this whole sale flight of the "bone and sinew" of the country, pro ceeds to say,—"The merchant, the trader, the shopkeeper is now inclined to look with dismay at the dismal spectacle of crowded steamers and close-packed emigrant ships, and to read the cries of those who for ever quit the land of their birth the knell of his own fate, and the announcement of his own doom. How is it possible that trade can become better when each year there is a new and fearful gap made in the consuming population—those who eat, who drink, who wear, whii, consume, who buy ? The shopkeeper knows that his profits depend on his sales ; and he asks himself what hope he has of realizing a livelihood, if the people leave the country ? Nor is the shopkeeper without substantial reasons for his alarm, when he is each day receiving, in payment of his goods, bills from America, drawn on English and Irish houses, and sent by former emigrants to their remaining relatives, for outfit and passage-money to the States. We are aware that one emigrant wholesale house in this city receives from its country customers an average of more than £2OO a-week in those bills. And from what we have heard from other sources we are inclined to think that the American remit tances for 1851 will be greater than for any previous year. If this be so, and we have every reason to think it will be so, then it follows, as a necessary consequence,. that emigration has not yet reached its acme, and that the fatal drain of bone, and sinew, and human energy, will still flow on with a more destructive strength, volume, and rapidity. The priest is each day more painfully conscious of the fact that his flock is on the decrease. He is also made the medium of transmitting money from a husband to a wife, from a son to a father, from a cousin to a cousin—each remit tance accompanied with glowing accounts of high wages, the charms of personal independence "and the delight of possessing a spot of land which one can call his own. , ' DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN THE COUNTY OF ANTRIM. The Belfast papers contain accounts of a fearful dis aster, by which the lives of three persons were lost, twenty-six persons badly (some, it is feared, fatally) injured by fractured limbs, and upwards of forty others more or less hurt by external or internal contusions. The sad event occurred on the evening of Monday last, in the old paper mill adjoining the town of Ballyclare, in the county of Antrim, in consequence of the giving way of the flooring of a large loft, in which upwards of 500 persons were assembled, for the purpose of hearing a lecture on electro-biology. The lecture commenced at eight o'clock in the evening, and occupied an hour and a-half, after which the lecturer proceeded to mesmerize, or etnrance, some seven or eight persons, who, at his re quest, came forward for the purpose. He succeeded with a few of these, and was about to exhibit his influence over them, having removed them towards the back part of the loft, when the curiosity of the spectators in the more dis tant parts of the room became so much excited that they rushed from all sides in a body to the central space to obtain a better view. A sudden and ominous crack be neath their feet gave but momentary warning of the penalty of their rashness. The greatly increased weight on the middle of the flooring proved too much for its utterly inadequate support to bear, and it gave way beneath their feet, opening downwards in a fearful chasm, into which upwards of 300 persons, men, women, and children, were precipitated. The scene which ensued may be more easily imagined than described. Those who were fortunate enough to aecure seats on the back por tion of the loft, of which the flooring had not given way, were comparatively uninjured ; but nearly all who stood, at the moment of the accident, on that portion which occupied the angle between the two wings, a square of thirty feet, were engulphed in the horrible abyss, and thrown, with the planks of the flooring, and the dis lodged stonework of the dilapidated walls, to the area beneath. The accident was occasioned by the breaking of the beam exactly in the centre, and, when it gave way, the flooring shelved downwards from both sides, sliding, as it were, those who stood upon it into the store below. It has since been discovered that if only two feet more of the wall at this part of the building had been displaced, the whole of the wing would have fallen in, and the cala mity would have been a hundredfold more diastrous than it was. THE LONGEST SHIP IN THE WORLD.—MOSSTS. C. Mare and Co., the shipbuilders, of Orchard-yard, Black wall, and Messrs. Penn, of Greenwich, engineers, have taken a contract to construct for the Peninsular and Ori ental Steam Navigation Company, an iron steam ship, of the following dimensions and power, viz. :—Length be tween the perpendiculars, 325 feet; breadth of beam, 43 feet ; depth, 32 feet.

The Bishop of Oxford is engaged on a tour of observa tion in Switzerland, visiting alternately the Protestant and Roman Catholic cantons, and taking personal notes of their relative social condition, with the intention of using hie information during the next session of Parlia• ment. His lordship also intends to carry his researches through the Papal States, as a supplementary confirming evidence to the celebrated Gladstone Letters.—Post. The Christian Journal seys :—The Scottish Episcopal Church is rapidly increasing in numbers and influence. In 1835 it numbered about 60 congregations ; at present they are nearly double this. At Millport there is a college being erected, at great expense, under the patronage of the Hon. Mr. Boyle, the presumptive heir to the earldom of Glasgow—so that this place is likely to become the seat of an educational institution in connection with Episco pacy, and probably the residence of the Bishop of the Isles in whose diocese it is. CONVERT TO PROTESTANTISM.—A gentleman named Alfred Clarke, a resident of Taunton, and for many years a stanch adherent of the Roman Catholic Church, has publicly renounced that communion, and been openly received into the fellowship of the Church of England. The ceremony of renunciation was celebrated at the church of St. Mary Magdalene, Taunton, the officiating minister being the Rev. Temple West. At the conclusion of the service Mr. West presented the convert with an elegantly bound Prayer-book of the Reformed Church. DR. PusEY.—Our good friend of the Standard is surely rather too sanguine in exulting over Dr. Pusey as a reclaimed and repentant Protestant. Still we admit, and that with great satisfaction, that there is a marked im provement in the tone of his last published sermon. The late advances of Popery seem to have produced similar effects upon him and upon the legislature. Both, after showing signs of predilection for Popery during a long series of years, have been obliged, at last, to begin a retro-. gade movement ; and both, it is satisfactory to observe, have their faces turned at last in a right direction. The change in Dr. Pusey is a marked one ; but it is not yet complete or final.—Morning Herald. The Oxford Herald contains an appeal, from a corres pondent, to the Simeon trustees to take more pains in the appointment to the immense patronage now in their pos session—a self-sought responsibility, which, the writer justly remarks, equals that of a Bishop " without his call and the grace which the Church believes is imparted to him for the work of his ministry." The case referred to is the vicarage of Farringdon, in Berkshire, to which about two years since they appointed Mr. Wilson, a nephew of the Bishop of Calcutta, and a cousin of the present vicar of Islington, but whose pecuniary difficulties were so great that he was obliged almost immediately to leave the place, and the living continued under sequestra tion to the time of his death.

Pound, hich -wi 11 coot meeting, may be int LAR C DRRESPONDENCE —ln the early part of last weeh _ iviorning Chronicle such as has seldom appeared in any public journal. A few months ago it was considered desirable to make some provision, in the way of church accommoda tion, for the numerous foreigners likely to be attracted to the metropolis by the Great Exhibition. The Bishop of London was applied to for the use of some of the metro politan churches, but, as the foreign Protestant ministers who were to officiate had not received episcopal ordina tion, a legal difficulty arose ; and his lordship, in refusing the application, was considered to have other, and more serious objections, whilst he merely availed himself of that already stated as the ostensible one. However, arrange ments were subsequently made, and the use of several proprietary chapels granted. Shortly after, a person calling himself W. Francis, and professing to be a " conrertfrom Dissent to the Established Church," wrote to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, wishing to know whether his Grace coincided with views attributed to the Bishop of London, and considered foreign Protestant pastors as " mere lay men." His Grace replied in a private note that he " hardly imagined there were two bishops on the bench, or one clergyman in fifty throughout the Church, who would deny the validity of the orders of these clergy solely on account of their wanting the imposition of epis copal hands." Though marked " private," this note was soon talked about, and ultimately published. Several se vere criticisms having been passed upon his Grace's senti ments, inquiry was made about his correspondent, when it was discovered that, instead of being a Protestant churchman, he was a Roman Catholic named Gawthorn. And according' to his own confession, in the correspond ence already alluded to, he sought the Archbishop's opinion in order to make use of it against the Church of England, and aid in the conversion of some of her minis ters and members to the Church of Rome. " I cannot," writes this specimen of Romish duplicity, when alluding to the discrepancy between the opinions of the Bishop of London and the Archbishop of Canterbury, and address ing himself to a clergyman whom be wished to convert, "believe that those who wish to be Catholics in heart and doctrine will much longer put faith or confidence in such an episcopate and such a system." And having acknow ledged that he had availed himself of falsehood in order to obtain the Archbishop's opinion, he has the audacity to say be did not think he had done anything wrong; " nor did others who were better able to judge." 'lhe corre spondence also contains a letter from the same individual to the Bishop of London, under the fictitious signature of "W. Rees." The instinctive feeling of every candid reader will prompt him at once to condemn such conduct. The effect of such exhibitions are already apparent. The Chronicle says—" If Roman Catholics of authority, if those who have the care of souls, permit this case to pro ceed unnoticed—if they fail, not only to disavow Gaw thorn, but to visit him with the most severe ecclesiastical censure--then we must say advisedly that no condemna tion can be too strong, no vituperation too severe for a system which permits this." _ 'espondence was published in t ATTEMPTED SIMONY IN CHELSEA.—The recent at tempt at trafficking in the souls inhabiting this populous metropolitan parish has met with the following castigation at the hands of the Daily News:—" Now just as the Duke of Bedford is the great proprietor of Bloomsbury ; as the Marquis of Westminster is the owner of Belgravia; as Lord Fitzhardinge rejoices in the freehold of the Strat ton estate to the north of Piccadilly ; as the Duke of Nor folk is lord of the Strand in the neighbourhood of St. Clement Danes ; and as Bishop Blomfield and his lessees revel in the bricks and mortar of Tyburnia, so the Earl of Cadogan is the principal owner of Chelsea, its growing streets and squares ; its narrowing walks, its decreasing nursery-grounds, and its projecting piers and jetties. Thence he derives the viscountcy which his eldest son bears ; and in addition to the wealth and power he has there, Lord Cadogan is also the patron of the two recto ries into which Chelsea is divided. Chelsea and its people have been bountiful to the Cadogans, and will, as leases drop in, be more bountiful still. If they be poor, or em barrassed, or needy, Chelsea is not to blame ; and, on every ground, past, present, and future, Chelsea deserves to be well and handsomely treated by that brave peer of England and pillar of the state,' its freeholder, Lord Ca dogan ; for ' to whom much is given, of him much is re quired.' Amongst the aristocracy so placed generally, there is a growing sense of the responsibilities of their po sion and of their great property. They don't, to be sure, even the best of them, take less than the full value of their houses • but usually, in agreeing on the rent, they recognise the du ties it involves. To this rule Lord Westminster, stern in the economy of his boundless wealth, is known to be a hopeless exception ; and now it turns out that on Lord Cadogan, or those who act for him, the spirit of mo dern improvement has not yet descended. For whilst Lord Westminster, to save his pocket, keeps a highway in bodies of npting to Belgravia so itty tenantry ; in ( the cure of thi has, however, a high peal__ , on the next presentation to that benefice being put up I sale, Alderman Farebrother made out that, according to Cocker, the cure of their souls on the next vacancy ought to produce Lord Cadogan £16,000. Other people, only valuing that awful commodity at some alderman and excellent auctioneer bou is not a proper exercise of the rights of property; b,titgt. thiti le not an ordinary, it is an exceptional transa ction ;o • abuse of those rights. The sale of the cure of souls") it Luke's parish isnot a matter forced on Lord Cadog an is a matter Lord Cadogan, or his trustee, force s on 01 public. 1t is legal, no doubt ; nevertheless, it i s a ler:_l outrage —a moral scandal—a religious shame —a natio?t disgrace that such a thing can be. I n what country buil England would public opinion, or does the law Pq °3 o such an auction to be held ? It is a p r actice long s '" abolished in all Roman Catholic nations. And in Et i ; land only, of Protestant countries, have the people °_`/ parish no right or power, or veto over the appoin tment ! the minister charged with their salvation. Wha t if Pl'. ! dinal Wiseman, or one of his semi-Romish allies for hi: had bought the next presentation ? The parishioners of ?,!. Luke's might, in that event, have had a Jesuit in disgul inducted into the benefice ; and not a word of comP lBl s could they legally make. What so probable, this very moment the Tractarians have come up to 1 . 31. 0 ; Cadogan's price. The parishioners have no remedy must either submit to some Popery or vacate their Ps" i t church. Or, if they are resolved to have a pastor of thee( own choice, they must tax themselves to the tune.u ; £16,000. The thing is monstrous, look at it as you put it in what aspect you choose.
