" I believe your arrangements are perfectly in accordance with the principles of my Harmony. " It is unavoidable in a scheme like that of your Chart, that it appears at first sight crowded and perplexed by the multitude of its details; followed up, however , by the aid of the Key, it becomes simple and distinct ; and 1 have no doubt, when once studied and understood, will be thought to have reaiized your proposed object, as well as anything of the kind that could have been attempted."—From the Rev.

There is nothing more difficult than to keep before one's mind the order of our Lord's journeys, and their direction. This Chart brings each journey before the eye, and nothing can more effectually fix things in the mind. And when to great beauty of execution, one feels that he can safely add the praise of high accuracy, as far as learning, like Mr. Greswell's, can insure it, nothing more need be said on the merit of the work." —British Mag.

MINteRISS is happy in being permitted to add the following testimonials, selected from a very numerous list : INDIVIDUAL TESTIMONIALS. Blunt, Rev. Henry, Rector of Upper Chelsea, Dec. 31, 1831 —" I feel much pleasure in adding my testimony to that of other s in recommendation of the Pictorial Chart of the Gospels, which I have found both attrac:ive and instructive to young persons." Browne, Rev. J., LL.B., Trinity Church, Cheltenham, Dec. 2, 1833.—'• I feel much pleasure in adding my testimony to that of others,' in favour of Mr. Al i priss's interesting and instructive Chart."

Edmund J., Trinity Church, Bath, January 28, 1831.—" I consider the Pictorial Chart of the Gospels a very valuable work, as an aid in communicating scripture knowledge to young persons." -Dale, Rev. Thomas, St. Bride's, Fleet-street.—" I entirely concur. in the sentiments of my respected friends. Messrs. Fesson and Sheppard, as to the 'utility and excellence of Mr. Mimpriss's Chart. Dalton, Rev. Wm., Wolverhampton, August 25, 1835.—" 1 have had in ,my possession Mr. Mimpriss's large edition of the Pictorial Chart of the Gospels, and have found it both useful and i n t e resting in studying th e H armony. I feel confident that the small editions now published will 'be an auxiliary to the same studies, and therefore deserving of supp or t." Dudley, C. S., - Esq., Secretary to the British and Foreign Bible Society, eptember 9, 1833.—" I have had, and shall have, much satisfaction in promoting the sale of a work which I consider peculiarly calculated to attract to the study of the Scriptures, and to facilitate the clear knowledge of a supremely important portion of the Divine Records." Geneste, Rev. M., West Cowes, Isle of Wight, February '22, 1833.—" It gives me pleasure to express my entire satisfaction with Your beautifully executed and most instructive Chart, which I have watched with much interest from its commence ment ; and 1 trust it will meet with that patronage of the public which it so well deserves."

Henry, M.A., Dec. 17, 1834.—" So far as I have had opportunity of examining Mr. Mimpriss's Chart, I quite concur with what is expressed by other clergymen." Pearson, Rev. John, Church ;Missionary College, Islington. —" It is my opinion that Mr. Mimpriss's Pictorial Chart is calculated to be highly useful and interesting in the perusal of the Gospels." Shirley, Rev. W. A., Shirley Vicarage, Derbyshire, Nov. 4, 1833.—“ I must willingly add my testimony to that of others, in recommending Mr. Mimpriss's Chart as a very useful and interesting work." SibthorP . , Rev. R. W„ Ryde, Isle of Wight.—" I think it may be useful to many, especially to young, persons ; and that it is calculated to fix in their minds the leading parts of the gospel history. The Second Part, now advertised, I think is likely to he even more useful than the former, the History of the Acts being less generally known than that of the Gospels." Stowell, Rev. Hugh, Salford, Dec. 1833.—" I have been pos sessed for some time of Mr. Mimpriss's Chart, and esteem it highly, as attractive for the young, and indeed useful to all." Willis, Rev. W.

Williams, Deacon, Labo chere, and Co. SOLICITORS. Messrs. J. and S. Pearce, P i ips, and Bolger. A N opportunity having presented • self of negotiating with the Proprietors of the VA RT IRON WORKS, near Pontipool, in Monmouthshire, for the purchase of those Works on terms which are calculated to yield a highly remunerative return, and a careful and deliberative survey and examination having been made by persons of the highest competency, an agreement has been entered into for the purchase, contingent upon a Joint Stock Company being formed for the purpose of carrying on the concern. The terms of the purchase are grounded not upon the existing high prices of Iron, but upon those which may be expected on an average of years. The Works are at the present tttne in active and profitable operation, producing at the rate of about 18,000 tons of Iron yearly, a large proportion of which is manufactured upon the premises into wrought Iron Rails and Bars. Taere are five Furnaces in blast, and there is engine power capable of work ing an additional number. The Works at present give employ ment to about 1,500 persons. The distance from Newport (the Shipping Port) is under fourteen miles by easy Railway and Water Carriage, and it will appear by the register of the Mon mouthshire and Glamorganshire Canals, that there are but four Works in South Wales which equal the Varteg in the amount of produce. A part of the Estate is Freehold, and the remainder held on Lease at moderate Rents. For the purpose of raising a Capital for the payment of the Purchase Money and carrying on the 'Works, it is proposed to create 6,000 Shares of £5O vach, upon which £lO per Share will be paid as a Deposit; and, as the agreement binds the Vendors 1.0 accept the consideration money easy instalme n t s , th e sub seqent Calls up o n th e Sh are s will by easy limited to £5 each Call, and an interval of at least three months will elapse between each. It is not expected that more than £35 per Share will be ultimately called for. The Company will take the profits of the concern from the 30th ultimo, and as the Dividends will be made half yearly, the first Dividend will be payable in the month of January next. The previous Proprietors of the Estate will hold a large Interest in thcCompany, and will - continue to take an active share in its managements. The Company will be regulated by a t Deed of Settlement, which will be fokthwith prepared by. the Directors under legal advice, and which4e Shareholders will be required to execute upon notice for that 14rpose, under penalty of forfeiture of their Shares. The Deed contain such clauses and covenants as are usually inserted in Deeds of Settlement of this nature, and will fix the number and qualifications of the Directors and Auditors, the periods of holding General Meetings, the right of voting, and such other points as are not adverted to in this Prospectus, all of which are to be in the discretion of the Di tectors. Applications for Shares may be made (post paid) to the Sec retary, at the Office of the Company, No. 2J, St. Swithin's Lane, Lombard-street. WILLIAM PULFORD, Secretary. London, 25th July, 1836. -vvHEREAS, by a Decree of the High Court of Chancery, made in a cause of JOHNSON versus WOODS, it was referred to WILLIAM WINGFIELD, Esq., one of the Masters of the said Court, to inquire who were the next of kin of JAMES BASNETT, late of Rainford, in the county of Lanca er, de ceased, the testator in the pleadings in the said can named, living at the time of the said testator's death (which ppened in or about the month of May, 1832,) and whether a such next of kin have since died, and if so, who is or are the gal personal representative or representatives of him, or her, them, having so died ; and also to inquire who was the heir- -law of the said testator living at the time of his death, and ether he is now living or dead, and, if dead, who is or are hi eal and personal representatives. Any person or persons therefore claiming to be such next of kin, or the personal representatives of any of such next of kin as may be dead, or claiming to be the heir-at law of the said testator, or his real and personal representatives, if such heir-at-law be dead, is or are, on or before the Ist day of November, 1836, by his or their solicitors, to come in, before the said Master, at his Chambers, in Southampton-buildings, Chancery-lane, and prove his or their kindred and heirship, and make out his or their claim, or in default thereof he or they will be excluded the benefit of the said decree.

M. continues to restore Decayed Teeth, however large the cavity, with his celebrated MINERAL SUCCEDANEU SI so universally recommended by the Faculty of London and Paris. The operation of stopping 'teeth is performed in a few seconds, The Mineral is put into the cavity in an almost liquid state, without heat or pressure; it hardens into enamel, allays the most excruciating pain, and lasts for many years, preventing► the necessity of extraction. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, whether arising from age, neglect, disease of the gums, or the use of calomel. INCORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, from a single one to a complete set, matching exactly in form and colourthe adjoining ones. These Teeth will not corrode or becom e di sco l o ur e d ; they are fixed, without wires or other ligatures, on a principle which imparts to the countenance a youthful and improved appear ance, and, whilst tbey afford support to the adjoining, Teeth, however loose, answer ever purpose of mastication and articu lation. To Clergymen and public Orators labouring under defective pronunciation, Alons. Al.'s method of replacing Teeth will be found peculiarly valuable as it obviates all defects of articula tion, particularly the inability to give the proper sound to the Dento-lingual double Consonant TH. The, use of Artificial Teeth in some instances has been found objectionable by invalids taking medicines that have a tendency to discolour them, or in the performance of operations which compel their removal, perhaps, in the presence of an attendant or domestic. Mons.. M., however, has been successful in re moving these objections by constructing Teeth for those pur poses of substances, and' in such a manner as to render them capable of withstanding effects of the most inimical nature. Natural Teeth placed on the above improved principle. Mons. M. particularly invites the members of the Faculty to witness the operation of filling Decayed Teeth with their Mine ral Succedaneum, of which they are the sole Inventors and Possessors.

The electors of Newcastle have nobly discharged their duty to their country, and evinced their attachment to the constitu tion, by the rejecaun 'of the radical candidate. They have spurned the attempt of an intolerant faction to reduce them to a state of political vassalage, and broken the chains which had been forged for them, over the heads of the insolent democrati cal dictators.

Tuesday, July 26, 1836, 1576 1528 Alaj.rity for the conservative candidate.. 48 IRELAND. The ministry, observes the Cok Herald, has ordered a grant to be issued from the Board of Works in Ireland of £5,000 for completing the new Roman Catholic Chapel on Charlotte Quay, in Cork, which has been for some time stopped in its progress for the want of funds. One of the Queen's County £lO freeholders, who voted for the radical candidate last election, has been sentenced to 7 years transportation for cow stealing. OBSCURE BaEvrry.—Captain O'Connor (85th Depot) ar rested a ruffian near Clogheen, a few days past, while in the act of murdering a man and his wife Limerick Chronicle. Qu.- 7 Did he murder them all out ? A man would require to understand murder in Irish particularly well before venturing to solve this problem. Major Browne, who has been appointed resident Magistrate of Belfast, is brother to the late Mrs. Ilemans. GUARD OF HONOUR FOR TuE JUDGES.—The practice usually pursued of placing a guard of honour of the military upon the Judges' lodgings has been discontinued at the present assizes in this town. We understood that an application was made to the commanding officer of the troops stationed here for the guard which ha's been allowed from time immemorial, but he replied that he was not at liberty to' rant the request, as orders to that effect h a d b een transm i tte d to every commanding officer in Ire land. The guard had been granted not from any apprehension that violence would be offered to the Judges, but as a mark of respect, and th e w ithh o ldi ng o f i t h as cause d so me. surprise among th e p eop l e of this neighbourhood.—Mayo Constitution. THE CROPS. EARLY HARVEST. — Harvest commenced on the 18th instant, in the vicinity of Nairn, in a field of barley, belonging to C. Macrae, Esq., Nairn-grove: it was early sown, and is a fair crop.—lnverness Chronicle, From an extensive inquiry in this county, we are certain that the crops of hay, wheat, barley, and oafs, are very deficient; not half an average crop. In Worcestershire and Cheshire the same opinion may be formed. The scarlet tiefoil has failed ge nerally in this county. In I re l an d t h e crops are reported rather prosperous; and it appears that the same remark may apply to Scotland. —Shrewsbury Chronicle. On Wednesday morning last, the sickle was applied to the flourishing crop of oats in our neighbourhood, and it is with feelings of sincere satisfaction, We announce that it has realised the sanguine expectations of the owners. We hope ere a short week or two has passed away, _we will be able to announce a similar result as to the general state of the harvest in our vici nity.— Tipperary Constitution. A sample of new chevalier barley was exhibited in Colchester market on Saturday last, in excellent condition. It was pur chased by Mr. Scott, baker, of that town, at 325. per quarter, and Mr. S. wos offered 2s. pet quarter in advance, but refused it. REMEDY FOR TH;2 4. :AINT IN THE POTATO Chop.--An in telligent individual, conversant with farming operations, infOrms us that the process of pickling the seed potatoes with lime, has, for several years past secured him plentiful and wholesale crops of putatoes. The best proof of the utility of this simple pro cess, is, that in the same field, the plants that had been pickled had yielded excellent crops, while those that had not been so prepared had failed. The lime is supposed to destroy the grub . The Mark-lane Express states that in France the recent warm weather has wonderfully improved the prospects of the farmers . ; and that th ose w h o h a d ca l culated on a deficient crop, now look forward to it least an average one. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. FOREIGN INTEL L IGENCE. SPAIN. SARAGOSSA, JULY 17.—Cabrera was surprised, on the 14th, at Morovo, a column of Christinos composed of one thousand men. After an obstinate resistance the Christinoes were com pelled to retreat, leaving in the hands of Cabrera four hundred prisoners. . . . • Quilez, a few days since, pursued and completely beat Ge neral Montes ; it is said the Carlists made oue thousand pri soners. Cabrera has now twenty-five thousand men. The election has ended by the nomination of the old deputies, determined opponents to Isturiz. It is given as positive that Louis Philip intends advancing Christina four millions of francs, in order to enable her to keep the game alive some months longer. The Carlist expedition, on the 16th, had reached Almazan by the Soria road. There is nothing between them and Madrid. BAYONNE, JULY '2o.—lt was stated at Saragossa that Ca brera was now at the head of 25,000 men, and that he had re quested Don Carlos to send a general to take the command-in chief of Aragon. The Carlists are organizing, in Navarre, the 9th battalion of Castile, which is to be formed entirely of Christino deserters and prisoners who shall voluntarily embrace the cause of Don Carlos. Another battalion of 1,200 recruits is likewise forming in Estella. General Garcia, after leaving in that city the young men he had pressed during his expedition, proceeded to the val ley of Ulzama. General Bernelle has made & movement in the direction of Estella, at the head of niu.e batallions, with a View it is said, of attacking the place. Cordova has marched towards the Bo runda with a large column. The resignation of his command, tendered by the French General, has, I am told, been accepted by the Spanish government. - ESPECETA, JULY 21.—The accounts received from the Royal Headquarters are dated Villafranca, the 19th. The Bishop of Leon had reached that city late in the afternoon. Private letters give us as positive information that Cordova and Villareal had an interview on the 16th, which lasted for some hours !! ! There were many conjectures about the interview, which it would be imprudent, if not hazardous to publish. A very short time will bring forth strange events. It is reported to-day, and generally believed, that Espartero has been appointed commander-in-chief of the army of the north in the room of General Cordova, whose resignation had been accepted! This looks strange, very strange, particularly when coupled with my previous paragraph. The belligerent armies throughout the provinces of Guipuzcoa, Alava, and Biscay are in a complete state of inaction. In Na varre General Garcia had made a successful' tour through the Ribero as far as Lodosa, which place he actually entered. He has got together within eight days upwards of '2,000 recruits. Several heavy pieces of artillery were being transported to the neighbourhood of Puente la Reyna. The Asturian expedition, notwithstanding the surprise of Lopez, is proceeding and gathering strength each day. Let ters from Corunna, dated the 9th, state "that seventeen vessels had entered that port from Gijon with 500 of its inhabitants and a great deal of furniture. Such was the state of Gijon that all the artillery had been either thrown into the sea or spiked : the whole of the garrison had taken to flight." A letter from Madrid, dated the 17th, written by the ex- Deputy Collada, makes mention of the great hatred to Cordova by all classes of people in the metropolis, and that, were he not stronger than the ministers, he would have been long since sent to the right-about. BAYONNE, JULY 21.—0 n the 17th instant Baron de Meer and General Bernelle marched out of Pampeluna; the oue at the head of five Spanish battalions, and the other with four bat talions of the French legion and 100 horses, and proceeded in the direction of Puente la Reyna. On the same day the column of the Ribera, under the orders of Brigadier Iribarren, arrived at Larraga. Early in the morning of the 19th the two former columns marched from Puente la Reyna towards Larraga, to join the troops of the Ribero, and having formed into two divisions, marched, the one towards Allo and Oteyza, and the other to wards Estella. The Carlists followed the movement of the Christino forces and on the 19th five battalions, commanded by Gen. Garcia, occupied Manera•a,nd Ciranqui, and four others, with two pieces of artillery and 180 horses, under Brigadier Zariategui, posted themselves at Dicastillo. Garcia advanced towards the heights of Oteyza, situate between Dicastillo, Estella, and Larraga; and as both armies there came in presence, the firing commenced about 10 o'clock in the morning. The courier who brought this intelligence having left at that moment, the result of the affray is not known. I a►n credibly informed that Villareal and Cordova had a few days hence a long interview together. Although noth►ng has yet transpired respecting the nature of that meeting of the two Chiefs, yet I cons►der myself warranted in stating that its object was more favourable to the cause of Don Carlos than that of the Queen. FRANCE. MOVEMENTS OF THE DUCH&SS DEMERRI.—The Messages des Gand gives a circumstantial detail of the passage of the Duchess de Berri, from La Vendee, through France, and via Ghent, Brussels, and Aix la Chapelle, to Germany. That journal states that the information so given is from a confidential source, and adds that the princess fled from her concealment in France the moment she heard the news of Alibaud's crime. We con fess we are surprised so generally well.informed a journal as the Messager de Gand should allow itself to be so humbugged. The adverturous little duchess has in her day played many queer pranks, but we doubt her doing a tithe so many again.—Age. LONDON LAIV REPORT. COURT OF REQUESTS.-THURSDAY. LARKINS V. WILBERFORCE. _ William Wilberforce, a man of colour from the coast of Gam bia, was summoned at the suit of Thomas Larkins, a portrait painter to show cause why he refused paying the sum of one guinea, which he contracted to pay for having his likeness painted. - The plaintiff stated that on the second of April last the de fendant applied-to him to paint his portrait, w hi c h h e agree d .to do for a guinea. The defendant sat no less than nine times, and on the sth of May the picture was finished and sent honie, but when he called on the following day for the money, the de fendant flew into a violent passion, declaring that it bore no more resemblace to him than it did to one of the bumeys of his tribe. His chief complaints were that the face was too white, and the nose too pointed, and also that the ears were not large enough, defects which laintiff endeavoured to rectity, but not withstanding he had done so to the satisfaction of all who had seen it, the defendant still persisted that it was a bad likeness, and refused either to receive the picture or to pay the amount of his contract. Commissioner—Have you the picture with you ? Plaintiff—Yes; exhibiting a half-length portrait of the de fendant, as much like him as two balls of blacking can be like each other. Defendant—Him no like me, I say, and me no hab him—me lif me place, so me hab one pictur for cookey, but him no like me, I say. The Commissioner having attentively examined the portrait, declared he considered it a very good likeness for the price. The defendant then took it up, and, after looking at it for some moments, pulled out a pocket mirror, in which he carefully examined his own physog, comparing it all the time with the pictute, which he at last threw down in a violent passion, saying Him no like me, him too white—(Laughter)—and him nos e like Pattoo." Commissioner—" Patton," what's that ? Defendant—" Gol o' Mity, massa for Judge, not know what Pattno mean. Him like Pattoo," pointing with much archness at the poor limner, who had a remarkably small beaky nose— " Pattoo mean what you call owl." CommissiOner—But you do not call the plaintiff an owl? Defendant—Yes, Massa, Lor Judge, him like Pattoo, and pictu too like Pattoo, Sah, so me no hab him. Commissioner—But whether you take the pictute or not you must pay the guinea with the costs. Defendant—No. massa, - no, me no do dat.; him no like me, him too white, and him hab no handsome ears, so me no hab him at all, for me stand handsome, me look handsome, but dat like a Pattoo. The Court, however, adjudged, notwithstanding all poor Massa's eloquence, that he must pay the amount of the plain tiff's claim, with costs, and he quitted the court declaring he would get ." Daddy Buxton" to see him righted. YORK ASSIZES.-WEDNESDAY, JULY 20. MELLIN V. TA YLOR.-CRIAL CON. The particulars of this case, as many of our r eaders will pro bably remember, were brought before the public at the last as sizes for this county. Upon this occasion a verdict for the defend ant was returned; but a new trial has been since obtained, upon the ground that the decision of the jury was contrary to the main body of the evidence. Sir F. Pollock, who had come down under a special retainer, conducted the case for the plaintiff, and was assisted by Mr. Wightman and Mr. Blanshard ; Mr. Creswell and Mr. Alexander appeared for the defendant. The details of the evidence for the plaintiff occupied the court nearly two days, and the remainder of the second day and Fri day was occupied with the defence. The Jury Jetired about twenty minutes past eight o'clock on Friday night, and returned into court at a quarter to nine, with a verdict for the plaintiff damages, one thousand pounds. This case has excited great interest throughout Yorkshire both parties being well known in the west riding, and of the first rspectability. The verdict has given general satisfaction. REPORT OF THE IRISH PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION. The first report of the " Protestant Association of Ireland" has just been put into our hands. It is a document to which we have much pleasure in calling the attention of our readers; and forms a very happy contrast with the deluge of revolutionary virulence that proceeds weekly from the O'Connell Association. The report commences with a brief history of the formation and progress of the society. "It was formed by a few indivi duals, who, contemplatin the accession t o th e i r num b ers w hi c h has since taken place, did'not feel themselves competent to adopt any but provisional and temporary arrangements—and they accordingly deferred the establishment of any regular system of operation, until the numbers of the association should have in creased." The object held in view by the original projectors of the Protestant Association is pithily expressed in the motto adopted in the title-page Of the report. ' When bad men com bine, good men must unite'—[Burke.l Thos e w h o fi rs t p ro p ose d its formation, "thought that in the circumstances of the times there was room for the advantageous exertion of combined pro testant strength, and that by associating themselves, and inviting the co-operation of all who loved the cause of protestantism, they might be able materially, to serve the interests of that cause."—The principles on which the association is founded. are,—"To unite together all who are willing to make common cause in upholding the religion of the reformation, and the principles of civil and religious liberty, of which, under God, it has been the foundation, and for that purpose to employ such means as may seem advisable and constitutional. To faciliate and promote the registration of protestant voters, and the dis semination of sound political and religious information amongst our protestant brethren throughout the empire." The method by which it is proposed to effect such purpose, is thus described : _ "lst.—By publishing and circulating, in a cheap and popular form, political and religious information, intended for the humbler classes of protestants. "2nd.—By assisting other conservative societies in the regis tration of protestant electors, "3rd.—By assisting such of our protestant brethren as are suffering persecution. "4th.—By promoting the creation of loan funds for the pur pose of establishing protestants in business, N. on farms; thus increasing the number of conservative electors. "sth.—By employing every legitimate means in our power to encourage protestants as tradesmen, mechanics, and servants, and to co-operate with such societies as already exist, having these objects in view."—Dublin Record. NEWCASTLE AND CARLISLE RAILWAY.—The western por tion of the line extending from Carlisle to Greenhead was opened on Tuesday week. Elie Eiberpool ei:tanbarb. FRIDAY 1110IINI1VG, JULY 29, t 836. We have no further accounts from General Evans. We' presume that the shock which his nervous system re ceived in the late retreat alone keeps him on the other side of the Bay of Biscay. We rejoice in being able to state that there is no truth in the statement of what the ministerial journalists, with uplifted eyes, term "a scur rilous Sunday paper." The General's indisposition did not come on in the held of battle in the form of a dysen tery. He made a most vigorous retreat, and illness did not overtake him till he arrived at Passages. In almost every part of the theatre of war the Car lists are victorious. In Gallicia, the Chief Lopez, and nine of his staff, were surprised and captured at Arsua, at some miles distance from their troops, and have all been shot at Corunna. This deed will be retaliated, we suppose, as usual. Such is this war of liberty ! From France, the last advices speak of new plot against the life of the King. Great precautions are to be resorted to during the fete of July. His Majesty has ordered a bullet proof coach to be built. Such are the enjoyments of regal dignity. The ministerial crisis of which we spoke on Tuesday is over for the present; but the effects of it will stick to all the parties concerned while they live (politically) and follow them to the grave which is even now:yawning to receive them. They will be dead and buried long be fore their shoes grow old. The late meeting at the Foreign office let in a flood of light upon the three-faced monster which is at present in possession of the governing power of the country. The ground work of the three bills relating to the English Church was laid by the Commission which had its origin in the Administration of Sir Robert Peel. When the Thimblerig Ministers came into power they adhered to that Commission, with some few slight alter ations. We shall not stop to investigate the motives which actuated them. It is enough for our purpose to be assured by the whole tenor of their policy that what they did was done for their own sakes; and subse quent events have shown that if they had brought in bills, prepared by that Commission, calculated to benefit the Church, it was not affection for that institution which prompted them to that cause. Why do we say this ? We will state our reasons. At the late meeting in Downing. street, when Hume censured the Bill for the regulation of the Bishoprics, and declared his intention of resisting the third reading, Lord John Russell complained of unfair treatment in having been permitted to introduce the measure and carry it through the principal stages without objection ; and then to be suddenly turned round upon and snubbed in the face of the public. He was pledged, he said, now, and must go on, and if confidence were denied him he must resign, because the eyes of the country were upon him ; but if he had been made aware of the objections now urged at the outset, he would not have run counter to the Radical will and pleasure ! A more rambling or a more disgraceful avowal never fell from the lips of a Minister of the Crown. As to Hume and the latitudinarian band which he so worthily leads, we charge no hypocrisy upon them, for they never have made a secret of their hostility to the Chnrch, or of their desire to pull it down.. They are consistent. But what shall we say of the pious and " conscientious" persons who call themselves Dissenters par excellence ? These people have all along cried out for Church Reform on the principle of benefitting the Church. Well, the time for Church Reform arrives; the Crown surrenders its patronage; the Bishops them selves set their hand to the work, relinquish patronage, and many of them surrender large portions of the income of their sees that it may be divided among those who starve upon their dignity, and, lo! these conscientious Dissenters turn round, join Hume and the infidels, and the unythingarians, and attempt to extinguish the Bill because, in fact, it does not pass a *lice of Church pro perty into their pockets just as the Irish Church Bill hands over a portion of the property of the Irish branch of the National Church to the uses of O'Connell and his mob of Priests. Give us an appropriation clause, they in .effect cry ; take from the Church, already straitened, already severely cropped down by the Tithe Bill, some £750,000 a year, that we may be relieved in all time to come from Church-rates. It is difficult to say whether this demand is most un principled or Most impudent. Even O'Connell was half ashamed of it; for he advised an acquiescence for the present. For the sake of Ireland, he said—meaning himself—he would grant much in order to retain the Ministers in their places. No doubt. While they are in (Ace, he rules Ireland at least. No other Ministry can be found willing to fasten the true interests of the country for the nauseous support of the country's deadli est, meanest, basest enemy. The "no house" expedient on Friday night was in perfect keeping with all that we know of Ministers and their disgusting allies. The bullying-scene of the morn ing was succeeded by a begging and praying scene in the evening. We understand that O'Connell was particu larly active ; that he was commissioned to offer large concessions for the future ; that be was eloquent in his description of the direful effects of driving the present convenient tools from their places; and the farce of Mon day night was settled in the course of Saturday forenoon Home, Tom Duncombe, Wakley, Rowley Powley Thom son, and others; stuck to their text that if they voted for what they called the !‘ Bishops Bill," they need not again sliew their faces before their constituents at the fast-coming general election ; so that it was arranged that Lord John should re-enter the third reading for Monday night; that Hume, in order to humbug the Middlesex radicals should persist in dividing the House against the third reading; that even the paid hacks of the Government, who had the fear of constituents before their eyes, should vote with him, taking especial care not to put the Ministry in a minority ; Lord John, in return, agreeing to throw overboard the bills relating to the Deaneries and Chapter property and for the more effec tual promotion of Chuch discipline, although the latter has received the sanction of the Peers and has not yet reached the lower House. What passed in the Commons, on Monday night, the reader will gather from our parliamentary report. It will be seen that the abominable cheating which we have spoken of was carried into effect. Lord Johnny moved the third reading, taking care to preface his mo tion with the scandalous surrender of the other Bills under the transparent pretence of postponing them that they might reecive more mature consideration. Hume " aggravated his voice like any sucking dove." Lord John, forsooth, ought not to have been surprised that he, Hume, the purest and most inflexible of patriots and Greek-loan-jobbers, should oppose a Bill so little satis factory to the friends of reform. He did not wish to turn • out the Ministry " from whom he expected so much"—a Baronetcy ?—yet he must be consistent and act up to his pledges, and would therefore divide the House without at all wishing thereby to effect the pro fessed object of that division, and so forth. The House was divided ; the Conservatives preferred the path of honour to turning out a tottering Ministry ; and Lord John had his third reading by 175 to 44, and the Bill was sent to the House of Lords on Tuesday evening. The annals of faction or of Ministerial scurrility pre sents few parallels to this most dishonest transaction. The disgrace is equally shared between the Whigs and the Radicals. Well might Mr. Whittle Harvey declare that he could not reconcile the course which many Mem bers were then pursuing with that which was taken by them at the meeting at the Foreign Office on Friday, whence it was, he said, that the warmth of feeling had subsided, and which he had hoped forboded a return to that system of independent opposition which had slum bered throughout the whole of the Session, he could not pretend to conjecture. Those Members who took a pro minent part on the occasion to which he referred, were pursuing a very tame and suspicious course in the pre sent discussion. They were continually told that the institutions of this country and of Ireland should be assimilated, and lie could see no reason why this measure of Church reform ,for England was not framed on the same principle in this respect as the Irish Bill. If Mr. Harvey could see no reason, the O'Connells, the Humus, Wilkses, Ewarts, Bainses, and Potters could see very powerful reasons. That some of them voted in the minority does not at all rescue them from the " suspi cious course" pointed out by Mr. Harvey ; and if their constituents do not see the transaction in its right aspect, and resent it too, why they deserve to be choused again in the same style at the next opportunity. The Peers have again done their duty like men in earnest. What a truly Noble contrast do they present to the dirty shufflers in the " reformed house." If truth is a libel, we have just now a desire to be particularly libellous with regard to the " collective" scum of Whig_ Radicalism. The Irish Tithe Bill, with its insulting appropriation clause, came on for discussion, in committee, on Monday night, and at the end of the discussion, the fang was again plucked from the mouth of the adder. We wish we could report the whole debate; but that, in our confined space, is impossible. We have, how ever, endeavoured to convey to our readers a faithful epitome of what took place. There were three divisions in the course of the evening. The first was on an amendment moved by Lord Lynd hurst, to the effect that the tithe-owner's property should be cut down 25 instead of 30 per cent. The learned lord stated his reasons in an argument which was irresistible, and 126 to 48 went with him in favour of the proposition. Then came the O'Connell robbery clause, and that was flung to the winds by 138 to 47. Lord Lvndhurst's speech on this point rivals all his former efforts; yet the Bishop of Exeter's speech showed that even the intel lectual grasp of the first man of the day had not ex hausted the subject: We are almost inclined to thank the authors of the appropriation juggle for their inven tion, wicked though it be; without it we should not have had these really splendid oratorical efforts; the more splendid and valuable that they were called forth on the side of justice, truth, and common sense. The ministerial pleaders for wrong-doing, that a fancied good might come from it, were the eminent statesmen, Melbourne, Clanricarde, Holland, Lansdowne, Plunkett —a delightful quintet. We have of course read their speeches, for that's our vocation, but we declare, 'pon honour, that we only remember a solitary point hit off at random by the correspondent of the Hon. Mrs. Nor ton. He stated that the rejection of the robbery clause would prove fatal to the bill; that ministers would not march through Coventry without it; but that they would not resign while they had with them a majority of the Commons, and, as they believed, a majority of the coun try ! It is a hackneyed saying that there is no account ing. for taste; neither is there any accounting for infatu ation. If Lord Melbourne really suppose that a majority of the country is on his side in this matter, then is Lord Melbourne irrecoverably immersed in mental darkness. The argument of the ministerial orators is, that the Irish branch of the establishment would be benefitted by being plundered. • They know well that the miserable demands of the Agitator is father to the pretence. But if they are right—if appropriation is so good a thing— if it is so mighty advantageous to a body to have its heart plucked away—and if it be honourable, and politic, and honest, to steal from one, to whom the thing belongs, to give to another who has no rightful claim to it—why is not the same course adopted with reference to the English Church ? If it be just to alienate from the Irish branch of the establishment—which is so poor that if its revenues were divided they would not give its ministers an average income of £270 a-year—in order to gratify the raging appetite of O'Connell and the Romish Priests, it is equally just to alienate from the English Church for the purpose of appeasing the equally raging appetite of the English Infidels and " conscientious " Dissenters —the Independents, the Unitarians, the Baptists, and the Warren i tes. Despite of Lord Melbourne's threat, however, the Peers will pass an exceedingly good bill for the abolition of Irish Tithe. Here is real " justice to Ireland;" here What is calculated to satisfy the actual payers of Irish Tithes. But no ; the ministers dare not adopt it in a practical and effective form. The O'Connell sword is over their heads suspended by a single hair; and they submit. Let no person, however, be so simple as to suppose that O'Connell wishes to settle any question concerning Ireland. It is his object to keep open as many griev ances as possible, because he is a wholesale trader in that article, and makes an annual fortune by his industry. When the bill again reaches the Commons, we shall have a motion for its rejection by Lord John Russell, at the end of a puling speech ; and O'Connell will give us the fiftieth repetition of his stock threats, and there the matter will rest a while. Then hey for the "Justice Rent ;" of which justice rent the Agitator will contrive, by hook or by crook—by fraud, of force, or both—to get hold of a most unjust "appropriation." We congratulate our readers on the signal triumph which was achieved at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, on Monday, in the election of John Hodgson, Esq., of Elswick, in the room of the late Sir Matthew White Ridley. Sir Matthew was a whig of the old school; a respecta ble, right-feeling man, strongly leaning to the ccnser- duLv 29. 1 536, vative side ;—in short, a man of property and sense, but afraid to act up to his excellent feelings and princi- Mr. Hodgson is also a conservative with more cou rage. He is ready to support all rational reforms, yet refuses to be the slave of a party ; of course he is not the favour with the exclusive liberals and reformers; and at the last election Mr. Ord was preferred to him by 1843 votes to 1254. But time, the great corrector, has produced its wonted effect in this instance. The Radfr cals precipitated the election by an indecently early mo tion for a new writ, moved for by that pink of moralists and politicials, Mr. Cuthbert Rippon, of Stanhope Cas tle notoriety; and the Roman Catholic sheriff of New" castle played into their hands by naming Monday las t as the day of election.—Captain Blackett, a renegate Tory, now a violent Radical, having been early call ed into the field. Mr. Hodgson was not communicated with till Saturday afternoon. A deputation had gone in search of him; bu t he accidentally arrived in the town by tire Belford c oach , at two in the afternoon. Seeing that the call upon 1 1119 came from gentlemen who really spoke the sense of th e constituency, he immediately declared himself. In I►i' address he says he had no wish to come from his retire" meat, and the sole motive of his coming forward was to afford the electors the only prospect of rescuing New castle from being reduced to the condition of a Treasury Borough. " My political opinions (he says) are top well known to you to require me to en l arge u p on th em h ere . I will not now deal in professions, but refer you to my past parliamentary conduct as contrasted with that of my OP ponent, and leave you to infer from the severest test—' the test of experience —which of us is most likely t ° , promote sound and rational reforms, and to prong" economy in every branch of the public expenditure." After a sharp struggle Mr. Hodgson was elected on Tues day by a majority of 48—a glorious triumph, affording of course, to Lord Melbourne further proof that a ma jority of the country is with the Magdalen Ministry I Several of our contemporaries have ',found a mare' s nest in a doCument, just published, bight " the Third Report of the Commissioners of National Education in Ireland," which, quoth one of them, " will be read with great interest, especially at the present time." Among other fine things it is said to contain "a reply to th e injurious statements of that veracious Prelate, Pr; Phillpotts, Bishop of Exeter." As Mrs. Malaprop would say, our contemporary is liberal of his epitaphs; but w e will wager a trifle, if need be, that the "veracious D r ' Phillpotts, Bishop of Exeter," who is impertinently os" sailed, will prove more than a match for the whole fiv e " Education Commissi oners ", th e b r illi an t D u ke °', Leinster included. We shall have a word or two to say on this and sorDe other kindred subjects on the first open day; and sha ll endeavour not to forget the officious zeal of Mr. Earle -- in a bad cause.
